The postal department has issued a
new form of money order, that seems
| to be an Improvement on the old. 1t
is about the size of an ordinary bank
| draft, and is so made that counterfeit
ing IS next to impossible. The con-
struction is adjusted so that the ADVICE
is made duplicate of the order by
| means of carbonized paper.
V. G. Brock, cashier eff the Sher,
man county bank, of Moro, was in the
city yesterday and informed US that
the heading will be all done in Sher-
man county by Saturday night. The

threshing from II to 20 bushels to the
acre while fall grain averages from
sixteen to thirty FIVE bushels.
This is the time of the year when
the beautiful scenery which has made
Oregon famous is at its best. The
clear atmosphere and fine autumn
weather make it the best time for
photography. Invest in a camera at
the Butler Drug Co.'S. The well known
Eastman Kodak needs no recommen-
dation. See their show window. 1t
A full orchestra will be employed
to furnish music for the Hook and
Ladder ball which will be held on Fri
day September 18th. The supply of
tickets is ineXhaustible and no one |
whether dancer or not should refuse |
not been refused anything they have
asked, and we hope this good record
will be kept up and we trust it will
since there are few citizens of The
Dalles who will refuse to contribute
dollar toward such good cause.
At II o'clock Saturday night the
the Columbia will begin. Wheels will
be lowered on the stroke of twelve
and seining will commence Sunday
morning. Then the fisherman will be
in a position to judge whether or not
the fall season will be profitable. The
Astoria ople seem to be of the
opinion thai illegal fishing has been
carried on above the Cascades during
the closed season. This is certainly d
false impression as it is much more
likely that the law breaking has been
vigilant deputy has kept his eyes open
since August 10Th and not single
arrest has heen made so that the inn
preston must be false.
Arrangements for the grand ball to
be given by the Hook aud Ladder
on the 18th, are almost com
pleted, and the success that the boys
are having, as we'll as the energy they
display to make the affair grand in
every sense of the word. is sufficient
assurance that it will be strictly all
right. The hall was never more
beautifully decorated or in better trim
for dance, and ball has never been
given for a better cause than will this
one and everyone who dances will
certainly be in attendance, SO that
good crowd, an enjoyable time, good
music and valuable addition to the |
Dalles fire department will be the re-
suit of the firemen,s IS efforts.
