Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Dufur, of Dnfnr,

EtU, the fourteen-year-old son of

60 years of age. He deliberately placed
' the muzzle of a rusty 44-caliber British
bull-dog pistol in his mouth and fired it
off. He died immediately. is said
to have been at one time an extensive

A bad accident occurred a few days
ago on the grade leading from Wamic to
Tygh Valley. .A Grass Valley four-horse
team, heavily laden with lumber from
. Lake '& Woodcock's mill, was-coming
down the hill when something occurred
that caused it to fall off the grade. The
wagon was smashed to pieces and one of
the horses seriously injured. Tha wreck
was strewn on the hillside when our in
' formant passed yesterday but the name
" of the owner of the team was not learned
Nearly a hundred passengers left this
morninz on the Regulator for Portland
and way stations. About fifty of them
are from Sherman county, who have
gone down to visit ' the exposition
They are all enthusiastic supporters of
the new boat and one of them was heard
to say, "If any of our crowd goes down
to Portland by any other way wa won't
know him when he gets there." Our
only regret is that these same Sherman
; county folks have not a portage road of
their own. We earnestly hope, how
ever, that this state of affairs won'CMast
long.

in-law William Moreton, who both re

Eddie Howell, the clever little twirler
nd Baker City favorite, takes his de
parture by this morning's train for The
Dalles where he has secured s position
in the Union Pacific baggage department,
ico R. E. Dwyer, resigned, who has se
cured ft position in the same department
At Portland. "Little Eddie," as he is
generally called, will be missed by his
Region of friends in this city, who will
rtfret to learn of his departure. The
young man carries with him the best
wishes of ft host of warm friends and
that happiness and prosperity will at
tend him ia their sincere wish. An ef
fort will be made to again secure his ser
vices next year.
even sacrifice something, if necessary,
so as to maintain tho new line of boats,
lest they should, for lack of support, be
compelled to withdraw and thns leave
the people again nt the mercy of the
railroad company. This is exactly the
way to look at the matter. The boats
must be supported at all costs, a hey
were built for the peoples' benefit end
the people mus( maintain. Every man
who- buys a pound of sugar or a sack of
salt in The Dalles today saves money
through the fact that the Regulator is
in existence. In point of fact the boat
is receiving very nattering encourage
ment. She has had more freight than
could be transferred at the portage by
tho little government engine that the
management of the portage could hardly
ever get when they wanted it, and when
thev did have the use of it would pull
next to nothing. The patrons of the
new line have bourne this inconvenience
with considerable patience and it is
hoped that all further inconvenience
and delay will be ended by next Mon
day by the furthest.
.A Falsa Report Contradicted. -
The incalculable injury that an irre
sponsible and vicious newspaper can do
to its oifn town is well illustrated by a
letter that we saw today which was sent
from a large San Francisco firm of un
derwriters to an agent in this city. The
letter says: "We understand that a
proposition to bond your city for a rea
sonable amount of money for the express
purpose of improving your water system
was voted down. -' The sequel is the loss
of more than ten times the amount of
money that the enterprising citizens
asked for." So far as the people of The
r.tlles are concerned this statement
needs no contradiction, but for outsiders
it may be said that it is utterly false.
The city has been bonded for $125,000 to
put in a complete gravity system that
will give a pressure on the mains in the
business part of the city of a hundred
pounds to the square inch. The work

A Miserably Bad Road.
Complaints are constantly reaching
this office from farmers south of The
Dalles, about the condition of the road
leading to this city. As the last word
of the above sentence was written our
old friend Tom Ryan entered our sanc
tum with his fase covered with blood
and wounds, and swelled almost beyond
recognition. He had fallen from his
wagon while coming into town with a
load of grain. It is the same old story.
One wheel tried to explore the fathom
less depths of one of the innumerable
chuck holes and Tom fell off. It's a
wonder the old man didn't , break his
neck. A short time ago Henry Simons
of Eight-Mille had ft load of hay capsize
from the same cause. He lived to tell j
the Chboxicxe man but his salvation
was a miracle. It appears somebody
must first slaughter himself on the altar
of his county before the necessary re
pairs will be made. Who will be the
victim?

Thet Timee-Mountaineer asks: "If it
cost f 60,000, to build five-eigths of a
mile of a portage railway, what wonld
it cost -to build a road eighteen and
three-fourths miles long?" Thafseasy.
Let us see. Five-eigths will go into
60,000 about thirty times, therefore it
would cost abont thirty times as much,
(because there would have to be thirty
crews of men to build it, with thirty
times the present number of superin
tendents and clerks, and thirty locomo
tives, and thirty times sixteen cars, and
thirty round houses, and thirty switches
nt each end and thirty inclines at each
end and thirty wharf boats at each end,
and thirty times three acres of land and
thirty office buildings and thirty shops
and thirty water systems and thirty
superintendents' houses and thirty
car sheds and thirty blank fools like the
editor of ' the Timet-Mounlaineer to lie
about the work.

One Bullet In the Right Place.
The Milton Eagle gives some interest
ing particulars of the attempted mur
der and suicide committed a few days
ago by Fred Lorn, who lives about
seven miles east of Milton. Lorn had
been in Walla Walla on a spree for sev
eral days, and coming home in a
drunken condition, engaged in a quarrel
with his wife and mother-in-law which
resulted in his drawing a pistol and
firing ono shot at them which, however,
did not take effect. The women fled
into a bedroom but the infuriated man
broke in the door and Again fired four
I shots, all of which took effect, one in
the shoulder of hia mother-in-law and
the others in Mrs. Lorn's breast. Sup
posing he had killed the women Lorn
went to another room, deliberately un
dressed and went to bed. He then
placed the muzzle of the pistol in his
mouth and fired. As the shot did not
prove fatal, Lorn got out of bed ana held
his mouth over a chamber while the
blood flowed out of it. When a deputy
sheriff arrived from Walla Walla Lorn
was found in bed, complaining, as the
Eagle naively puts itj of a very sore
head. All three were taken to Walla
Walla and placed in the Sister's hos
pital. The doctors say that none of the
wounds are necessarily fatal,' bnt the
bullet is still in Lorn's head, the very
spot, in all the world, where it ought to
be. -

There is within the bounds of the

362,391 is paid north of the base line di

Another attempt is being made to en
list Umatilla Indians in the service of
Uncle Sam. The first trial some time
ago resulted in a complete failure. .The
Indians said they did not want to leave
their homes and preferred peace to war.
It is understood that this time also, the
proposition to enlist does not meet with
favor among the Indians, Captain Lee,
Lieutenant Hardman, and a small body
of troopers from Fort Walla Walla are at
the agency for that purpose.

John W. Hellenbrand, of Oretown,

During the fire at Condon last week
two Indians confined in the county jail
pending removal to the penitentiary to
servo a sentence of one year for horse
stealing, were released and rendered
.valuable service in extinguishing the
flames. As a reward for their services a
numerously-signed petition has been
sent to the

dressed, slick-fingered man sold rolls of
paper, two for f 1, in some of which were
greenbacks of denominations of $1, $2
and $5. Of course the percentage was
in favor of the man who conducted the
arrangement, and this was discovered to

They were the sensation of the hour at
