They intend to carry a full and complete stock of gen eral merchandise amounting to at least 410,000. Rev. Mr. Wistler, who has been ap pointed to the pastorate of the new M, E. church in this city, arrived on the noon passenger today. He has the ap pearance of being just the man The Dalles M. E. people have been looking for for some time. Mrs. H. L. Powell, who so nearly met her death by an accident in the vicinity -of Dufur several weeks since, is now re ported to be suffering from typhoid fever. In the midst of her terrible afflictions on Sunday evening she gave birth to a daughter. Truly she has the sympathy of the public. Another view of the steamer Regula tor, at the wheat laden dock last even ing, was taken for Mr. Hubbard toillus trate The Dalles-Liverpool all water route carrying our wheat away, via. Astoria and Cape Horn. Mr. Hubbard's pictures are wonderful missionaries for The Dalles and the Inland Empire. Mr. A. Y. Marsh, one of our leading - Dalles Citv fruit shippers, has been in formed by the Portland firm which takes his fruit, that his Tokay grapes are selling at an advance over the Cali fornia grape of same variety, as "they are superior to them in flavor and beat anything we ever tasted from Cal ifornia." Mr. C. A. Fisher, father ot Mrs. I. I. Burget of this city, has been here on a visit since Monday, and is about con . vinced that he prefers The Dalles to his Lyons county home in Iowa. About the 7th inst. they had a killing frost bach there, as a foretaste of Stern Old Winter. The climate and productions of this region is a revelation to him. Mr. M. Herrick, one of the pioneer 4 -cannerymen of theJColumbia river, now . : ... : 1 ir. t tt T-ac- 4 was in the city last evening on a harried business trip with Mr. Taffe. They re port the fish running pretty well yet. The Oregonian yesterday said Mr. Taffe would put up 29,000 cases this fall. We think we can see those figures and go a 1,000 better. Mr. Phil Brogan, who came in from Antelope yesterday to close a sale of 2,000 head of fine mutton sheep to Mr. Butler, for the east, says that after the recent shower grass shot up fresh and fine in that region at the rate of two in ches in four days all over, and the country is now so rich in pasture that the sheep fairly baa for joy. His are all out of the mountains now. , Mr. J. A. Jonnson left this morning for the -Portland exposition with another very choice collection of fruits contrib uted by Sandoz Bros., from their Mill creek farm, for exhibition, consisting of Shasler Rose, Muscat and Black Ham burg grapes, Sandoz peaches, (a French variety), choice apples, and a large crate of luscious strawberries. Mr. Joshua French added some very large quinces to the collection. Mr. C. J.

Mayor Mays is in the city today, and will remain several days. He will be in attendance at the Press convention. The New Gertnania opened today, and Messrs.

City Recorder Menefee has had a very attractive card printed, descriptive of the city lots to be sold at auction, com mencing on the 11th. Mr. John G. Maddock, the Goldendale banker, was a passenger out by stage this morning, returning from a trip to the Golden Gate. We regret exceedingly to hear that Mr. M. V. Harrison, Hood River's popular merchant, has had his doors closed bv some eastern creditor. Justice Schutz court room has been Masonically "raised," by the introduc tion of a large light which sheds its rays after nightfall upon all who come search ing. Five more boxes of elegant fruit from The Dalles, was received at Portland ex position this morning from the orchard of Mr. Emil Schanno. That's right send it ahead. Judge Blakeley, in the matter of the estate of Mr. Sunshine, deceased, met with others interested, in Justice Shutz court to make an inquiry into the estate as provided by law. The price for all advertising in T6k CnnoxicLE is uniformly the same. We never make fish of one customer and fowl of another. We give better service for the price than any other daily news paper in the state of Oregon. Col. Sidney Dell of the sea-port city, passed through on the noon passenger. We ' regret missing one of his courtly greetings by failure to meet the tram He is evidently off on business to Ogden or beyond. A number of gentlemen, members, will soon form the incorporation of the First Christian church of The Dalles, Or, The work of building the foundation for the new edifice has begun. After com pletion of the foundation by the church society, the structure will be put up by Contractor Boyer. . Street commissioner Staniels will have the steets of Dalles city looking as neat as a new pin by Monday night. People who persist in littering the streets with paper, etc., make Jack nearly as mad, if not madder than the merchant who does his advertising by keeping a lot of old empty boxes on the sidewalks. Among the freight by the Regulator last night was a fine lamp for Mr. N. Harris. It was incased in a box as tall an ordinary dry goods counter, large base and small top, reminding one of the conundrum of grandmother's churn : Bifc at the bottom, small at the top, with a staff in the middle going flip-a-ta-ftop." W. E. Garretson says it is astonishing what a number of beautiful stones are brought to him annually to be sent away to be dressed by a lapidary. Some of these are garnets, opals and the most lovely agates, picked up all along the Columbia. The latest are four just re turned to him from Denver for Messrs. John Marden and S. L. Brooks, picked u by them this summer at the Cascades. A young lady of The Dalles has a beauti ful opal taken from the gizzard of a grouse, and it is polished as nicely as if it had been dressed by a virtuoso skilled in the work of polishing gems. These are facts worthy of mention, and go to add to the knowledge of the existence in our midst of many hidden mysteries yet to be discovered for profitable development. The ladies of the committees who are going to' ths Cascades on Tuesday to meet the members of the Press Associa tion, desire The Chronicle to say that they will not be prepared to serve re freshments to others than members of the Press Association, and advise others who go, to be prepared with lunch bas kets. We are informed that the action for damages resulting from the Union Paci fic railway accident at the cascades, Feb. 3d, 1890, brought by Clans Meyer, has been settled the company paying' com plainant $7,000. The case was started in the Wasco circuit court, and was afterwards taken into the United States court at Portland. . A. J. Ahola, for some time past ma n , ager for the Farmers' Mercantile com pany at Goldendale, has severed his connection with that firm and accepted a position with Mays & Crowe of The , Dalles. The Sentinel says : "Mr. Ahola is one of the young men who all unaided has proven himself capable of doing business npon a paying basis. - The citizens of Goldendale will be sorry to lose this sterling young man, but our loss will be a decided gain for The Dalles. D. Cram will take the man agement of the Farmers' Mercantile company vice A. J. Ahola. Mr. Cram has had many years experience as a salesman and was a member of the firm of Cumming & Cram." A dispatch from Homestead today states that a sensation was created there yesterday, when a number of members of the advisory committee of strikers, Chairman Crawford, ' members Baird, Ryland, Dierken and Brown were ar rested. They are charged with treason, and the wrrants are based on the in formation of Chief Justice Paxon. The arrests were very unexpected. The prisoners were taken to Pittsburg, and landed in jail. The strikers are very much excited. The informa tion against the men charges O'Donnell, McLucklie and thirty others, all members of the advisory committee, with ordaining, preparing and levying war against the commonwealth of Pen sylvania, and defying and resisting the constitution, laws and authorities. The petitions on which Chief Justice Paxson issued the warrants were made by the countv officers. This is the first time in the history of the state that any resi dent has been charged with treason, and the outcome of the cases will be watched with interest. The penalty for treason is twelve years' imprisonment. From the Daily Chronicle. Monday. Justice Schutz is in Salem today. "Business before pleasure." Petei Cooper.

Moody and Mr. Green spent Sunday at Cloud Cap Inn. Miss Auburn Story is quite ill at her father's residence in this city. Senator Dolphs Tabernacle speech ap pears in the Oregonian in full today. The committees are now all prepared for the Prees association tomorrow. Hon. C. E. Hilton listened to "a talk from Dolph" at the Portland tabernacle. Rev. T. . Eliot, . the eloquent Uni tarian minister of Portland, is in the city. It is expected that Senator Dolph will address the people of The Dalles at an early date. - Miss Vanderpool and Miss Warren of Dufur, took the noon passenger for Portland yesterday. Another box of elegant Muscat grapes from vineyards of The Dalles, was taken to Portland yesterday. Mr. Frank Allen of Camp Watson, one of the principal stock raisers of Grant county, is in the city. F. W. L. Skibbe joined the dollar a week rackett, and ordered his first suit of clothing today. Lucky Fred. Mr. Bronsons family have returned from a summer visit to Santa Barbara. Mr. B. met them in Portland. Chrisman & Corson's Cape Cod cran berries are the only fruit that Dalles producers will admit they can't beat. Patftns of the Cascade Locks excur sion tomorrow snould remember that the Regulator will leave her wharf at 7 o'clock a. m. County Assessor Koontz is very busy just now preparing the assessment roll of Wasco county for the board of equali zation next week. Hon. J. H. Mosier of Hosier, brought into the city today corn in the ear, on stalks 15 feet high, to exhibit at the Court house tomorrow. Miss Cora Joles was among the pas sengers today by steamer Regulator, for Portland to visit friends and attend the exposition. . ' 1 Mr. Frank Brown, the leading wheat buyer at Grant,' spent Sunday in The Dalles. He says our free ferry has verv materially cut off his Klickitat trade. Mayor Mays is putting np his third crop of alfalfa this year. On ' some soil it is the grass, but not eo on all soils, He has already sowed 110 acres of rye. Deputy Sheriff M. A. Leslie of Moro, visited The Dalles yesterday to take charge of his jail bird, held here for safety, until court met at Moro today. Mr. A. S. Macallister is again in the city, and will "be present at the fair, and act in his capacity as President of the association. He is looking hale and Hearty. . Mr. J. G. Farley returned from Walla Walla Saturday night. He says The Dalles delegation at the district fair are jubilant over thbir successes at the ex hibition oi norses. Mr. Malcolm Maclnnes, assistant sec retary of the agricultural society, may be found at the office of Wm. Butler & Co., corner of Second and Jefferson streets, The Dalles. The belated passenger for Portland this morning was a young man, whose solace was ? "Well, I'll trv again to morrow." This was his third miss twice by train and once by boat. A genuine hobo of the genius tramp was lead up to the Hotel de Cross Bar last night by Deputy U. S. Marshal Jameson, for procuring whisky for an Indian Caroline. He hails from Seattle, The Gesang Verein . Harmonie have chosen the following officers (or the en suing year: Hans Hansen president; Ad Keller vice-president: R. Rorden secretary ; F. Lempke treasurer ; Carl Gottfried musical director. Mr. Chandler returned to Antelope today. He was disappointed at not being able to meet Hon. C. W. Cart wright there last night by appointment. He is preparing to leave Oregon . for England. Wild geese, floating placidly by The Dalles this fall on the bosom of the Col umbia, remind us of that phrase of the "at duck setting upon the pearly edges of prosperity" . which Portland swiped from us back in the sixties. Mr. Emil Schanno is converting a large portion of his pear crop into vine gar, his grapes into white wine, and is drying his prunes. There are more ways than one to dispose of the orchard products in Wasco county. A very handsome piece, representing a printers frame and cases, to be elabor ately decorated with fruits and flowers, has been prepared by the skillful hands of Mr. and Mrs. Brooks as an ornament for the President's table at the Press Association convention tomorrow. Mr. John Bonn of this city has to bacco stalks that measures six feet in bight. It was his purpose only to pro duce this article for the juices to be used in spraying fruit trees, but the samples he will show at the court house will in form the editorial fraternity that tobacco may also be considered a prolific product of Wasco county. Figs were raised iu The Dalles that reached a high stage of perfection in June this year. Three branches were contributed by Mr. E. Schanno for the exposition yesterday that are marvels. Those branches were filled with the fruit in the stages of 'second and third crops. Mr. Schanno imported the cut tings of his finest figs from Europe. One of the handy inventions for fruit producers Is Chrisman's patent dryer. Yesterdav we saw two boxes of prunes going to the exposition that were as perfectly cured ns anything could be in tho fruit line. One of the lots of Italian prunes from which the sample was taken, was dried in eighteen hours. Silver prunes were dried in twenty hours. Divers .have been at work for a week past removing drift in the Columbia about a mile above the Celilo cannery. Some logs have been taken out that ap pear to have laid in the water since the days of Noah. It has been piled np on the beach, and after it has dried out so it will burn, Mr. Taffe will log and burn it. Some of this timber would make fine material for violins and other .musical instruments, but as Mr. Taffe is only fixing for a seining grounds, he has no use for the drift. A new hatchery for salmon has to be established on the Sandy this fall, as the Clackamas does not furnish a supply any longer. The coming assembly will be asked to take more decided action on the fish question, if our salmon are not wholly exterminated. Capt. Campbell, one of newly elected representatives from Clatsop county, says: "To allow a tew seinsn cannerymen to carry on a business that is a detriment to the com munity at large is foolish in the extreme. The Sunday law is a hoax; it was only intended for a political job, and should be abolished. The hatcheries may be made a success if young fish are allowed a chance but never otherwise." BORN.

Hark? the angel voices singing Welcome to a heavenly guest, One who left this world of sorrow, And has entered into rest. Rest so sweet, in Jesus bosom, In his arms of endless love : Could we mourn our dear departed Call her from her home above? Though we miss the gentle foot-steps And the smiles of love and cheer And the voice which softly whispered 'All I leave in Jesus care.' Yet we call thee not dear Ida From the rorld of peace and rest, But we hope when life is over, We'll be numbered with the blest. Jennie. Adrerttsed Letters.

Lewis and wife, of Medina, Ohio, on a tour of the Pacific coast, made the trip to The Dalles Sat urday via steamers Dalles City and Regulator, and after remaining here over Sunday left by steamer Regulator this morning for Portland, where they take the Southern Pacific for Sau Fran Cisco and the east. We have met great many highly pleased tourists thi year at The Dalles, but have conversed with none more delizhted than Judce ana aire. Lewis, rney nad their first feast of speckeled trout, and luscious fruits, here; and Judge Lewis' enthu siasm concerning .mountain climbing and lofty views was indulged in bv many rambles over the summits about The Dalles. Accompanying them on their return today they have some of tne truits and flowers of Dalles citv gardens, but nothing compared to what they might have had, with a little more time on a week day, to make the collec tion. Dalles Horses at Walla Walla. The Dalles delegation at Walla Walla report having a splendid season. Our Dalles horses have made tine records for themselves, and won many laurels. Mr, O. Mack's horses, Anita, Parole Sireata, and Mamie S., carried the day in several leading contests last Week, in some of the prettiest races of the tour.

The delega tion will be at La brande this week. and will then return to The Dalles to be in attendance at the fair to be held here, beginning on the 11th, continuing five days. Old Nursery Favorites. There was Tom, the Son of the Piper, Jack Sprat, and Merry King Cole, And the Three Wise Men of Uothain, Who went to sea in a bowl; The woman who rode on a broomstick, - And swept the cobwebbed sky. And the boy who sat in the corner, - Eutiug his Christmas pie. These were 6ome of the old favorites, but thev have been supplanted by the "Pansy" and "Chatterbox" stories, "Little Lord Fauntleroy," and ''Five Little Peppers." The old fashioned pills and physics have been superseded, tnd wisely, too, by Pierce's Purgative Pellets, a mild, harmless and effective cathartic. They are pleasant to take so gentle in their action that the most delicate child can take them, yet eo ef fective that thev will cure the "most ob stinate cases of constipation, stomach, liver and bowel troubles. Thev should be in every nurserv. As a gentle laxa tive, only one for a dose. tlR, PULES' NERVINE There Is nothing- like the RESTORATIVE NERVINE discovered by the great specialist, DR.
