Cacals Lucka Jollification at The Ialls
Cast Night.
A regulation old-time Fourth of July
celebration was indulged in by The
Dalles people last night, on receipt of
the news from Washington that the river
and harbor bill had passed congress, and
that "the cascade locks contract system
was retained. Both bands, the Regu
lator and Dalles City, were out and
discoursed fine mnsic, while Messrs. E.
Jacobsen & Co., and M. T. Nolan opened
their Fourth of July preserves, and
bomb, bomb, followed bomb, bomb,
with an occasional sparkling balloon,
frequent explosions of rockets and the
burning of flash chemical fires which
set the people ablaze with enthusiasm.
Between the music of the bands,
the firing of rockets, bombs,' etc.,
Judge Bradshaw, Capt. John W. Lewis,
and others, got in a few opportune
speeches from the 'balcony in front of
Snipes & Einerslys store, and all taken
together, as a friend wrote to Hon. Bin-
ger Hermann :.. "There was not a soul
in Ihe Dalles-. last night but was. glad
that Mitchell, Dolph and Hermann re
present Oregon in the nations capital."
And Still Tliny Come.
Geo. Pierce, who was nearly killed by
the explosion of giant powder with
which he was celebrating the 4th at
Hood River, was a night watchman iu
the employ of N. P. R. Co., and as such
entitled to benefits of the hospital. It
was certainly, in his case, a very fortu
nate circumstance. He was accompan
ied to St. Vincents hospital Monday
evening, by Dr. Logan, of this city.
His left hand was blown off, and the
lower third of the fore-arm bad to be
amputated. The right hand palm was
badly lacerated, and the center finger
J blown off. One eye seems to be gone.
: and he may possibly lose both. He was
i considerably burned on the chest. It is
I a very unfortunate case.

met
Aa
The Fourth of July committee
last night and audited all the bills.
it usually happens, in such cases, the
committee has generally to go down in
their individual pockets and make up a
deficiency. In this case the generosity
of The Dalles public met all expenses,
and the cominittee,'as well as the public,
are largely paid for the investment. At
no time in the history of the celebra
tions of July 4th has a committee met
with more hearty response. This
in part perhaps owing to the fact that
the dear people did not know who the
committee was to '.'squander" this
money. Now that the affair is all over
it may not be amiss to say that Mr
Lochhead, Jud. S. Fish, H. J. Maier,
Sara Campbell, M. T. Nolan, E. Jacob'
sen and D. C. Ireland were the fellows
who did the grarft. If tbe public is sat
isfied "we the committee" should be
likewise pleased, but as to any future
celebration committees, pardon us, but
it is the unanimous expression of this
committee to be excused.
It is a pleasure' to hear that a party of
gentlemen from the East contemplate
coming on an excursion to our city about
the first of August for the purpose of ex
amining fruit, mineral and other lands
in this vicinity with a view of investing
therein. , We are informed that they are
men of strong financial standing and
that their impressions,' favorable or
otherwise, will have great weight on
their return home. It is reasonable' to
suppose that their taking this trip is the
result of some of the praise and enthusi
asm shown by their friends who visited
The Dalles a month or so ago and went
away- well pleased with what they had
seen. We would like to see our citizens
extend to these-geptlemeri' a hearty wel-
come on their arrival here and at the
same time endeavor to bring, their at
tention to some of the great resources of
our country. There is a strong rivalry
among the people of other cities to outdo
each other in conveying to visitors a
favorable impression of everything that
will serve to enrich or enhance the value
of their homes, and which, aside from
general hospitality, cannot help but re
sult in much jpod. Would it not be
well for our own people to practice the
same prudence and then take note of the
results as time works them out?

A friend recently called attention to a
case 'which he thought subverted our
view that the ivy growing on walls
tended to make them dry rather, than
damp. On looking at the case we find
that the wall was covered with the
Ampelopsis veitchii, or, ns it is called.
Japan ivy, and that the vines had been
suffered to grow over the shingle roof of
the house some four or hve feet from
the gable end, and that the spouts and
other water conduit were completely
choked by this growth of vine and fill
ing up with leaves.
It is no wonder that a house should be
damp under such circumstances. It
should not be forgotten that the vines
on walls must never be allowed to reach
the roof or clamber in the gutters, but
must be confined entirely to the vertical
surface of the walls on which' they grow.
The innumerable number of small root
lets absorbing moisture continually gen
erally make walls so dry and hard that
it has been found at times in tbe Old
World, when necessary to take down a
boil ding, almost impossible to do so on
account of the extreme hardness of the
mortar, which has been kept dry for so
many years through the agency of these
roots. The case we have referred to
shows how often a good idea may be ,
apcdled by reason of the thoughtless
TnMiiw in which the idea is carried out
