He passed in his last check this morning, J. J. Wilev is now one of the chief dis pensers at J. O. Macks. The lava on Dalles streets is tough on the Mercantile company's new wagon, Sunshine and shadow, and fair collec tions ruled the hour in The Dalles today, The footDad and the burglar have struck The Dalles. Now look out for them. Clean crossings is what Jack wants, but he finds it difficult to provide them with hard-pan slop. Capt. Lewis is much better today. There are no traces of fever, and he was feeling pretty bright this morning. Judge Bradshaw expects to go to Port land Sunday evening, where he will hold court for Judge Stearns next week. As successor to Jay Gould in the U. P. K. Thb Chkoxiclb names E. E. Lytle of The Dalles. Efficient, competent and able. The first car load of oranges for this season was shipped from Riverside, Cal., Sunday. The orange crop is ripening rapidly, and will be large.' W. E. Garretson has succeeded in re turning from a hasty trip to Portland To avoid death on MorriBon street man traps, h6 put up at the Gilman. The snow, the snow, the beautiful snow, on the Klickitat, hills today, flecked by a heavy background of fog, and the bright light of a noonday sun, made a handsome subject for a first class artist. "Oregon may be proud that she is not it," said an intelligentgentlemau to Thb Chronicle man today. He had just re turned from Chicago, and be shows that the Columbus fair is a huge fake. Fred Lemke's saloon was robbed this morning after 2 o'clock. The burglar broke in by the back window, took about $5 out of the till, a couple of bot tles of liquor, and a handfull ot cigars. Coroner Eastwood was summoned Dr. Shackelford to attend an autopsy to day and. he decided that the dog -was dead, do too ought to be the man (so called), who performed the role of exe cutioner. It was a job disgustingly of fensive to civilization. C. N. Robs was captured and brought back to The, Dalles today by Marshal Maloney for sandbagging Clem S. Camp bell, a Klickitat farmer, laat Tuesday night, and robbing him of $17.00 on Main street. The examination was con ducted before Justice Schutz this after noon. T. McF. Patton was buried in Salem this afternoon by the Grand Lodge of Oregon, A. F. & A. M. Services were held in the Methodist church at 2 o'clock p. m., conducted by Kev. F. o. Unight. The midnight services of the Scottish Rite bodies were held in the same church at 12 'p. m. last night. The sharp criticisms indulged in by the Oregonian, and similar publications on the lawlessness of the "gangs people living in lilliam counj.y is en tirely uncalled for, and if the great daily was inclined to be decent it could very easily set at rest the slanderous state ments of the so called detectives. People of The Dalles are to be con gratulated that the old Houitv place, about eieht miles from the city, has fallen into the hands of Mr. Jos. Sherar, We understand that Mr. S. will lit it up as a public park and resort, building an excellent road to it. and in other ways encourage the formation of agentlemans' driving club, talked of last summer by Thk Chbonicle. From the Dally Chronicle Saturday. A. C. Cummins, of the Centerville Leader, gave us a call yesterday. It is again reported that the IT. P. in tend to quit steamboating on. the sound. S. A. Byrne, late of The Dalles, but now a resident of Portland, is in the city today. The Sherman county wild goose shoot ing grounds have moved down to within ten miles of The Dalles. The Dufur Dispatch announces that the next issue of the paper will bear date at the new town of Grant. Christian church services will be held in the Congregational church at 3 p. m. tomorrow. Elder J. W. Jenkins will preach. Mrs. Judge Blakeley returned today from her visit to San Fancisco. She came up by he steamer Oregon to Port land. In consequence of the common coun cil meeting tonight the Rod and Gun club will not hold its meeting until Monday evening. Mr. and Mrs. i . L. Bancroft, are in the citv from the east, and expect to make this their future home. Mrs. Bancroft is an artist of great ability. Ladies will be specially interested in the clearing sale of Miss Annie Peter & Co., notice of which appears in a new advertisement in The Chkonicle today. Wm. H. Michell, a very popular vonnu man. formerly cashier at the U. P. office in this city, and son of Mr. Philip E. Michell of Columbus, Wash finally succumbed to the dread disease consumption, -at the home of his par ents and died this morning. He was twenty-three years of age ; a member of the Knights of Pythias and Woodmen which orders are making preparations to attend the funeral in a body. Mrs. Jos. Beezley left for St. Louis this a. m., where she intends to reside in future with her daughter, Mrs. Grover B. Simpson. Her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wm. Beezley, accompanied her, en route to her home at Newbridge, Or. One of the passengers of the N. P. R. train which was recently robbed has brought suit for $25,925 damages. The $925 . is to cover the loss of money and valuables, while the $25,000 he wants to pay him for the inconvenience of the fright. When the market value of a real good scare reaches that figure vic tims will be plenty. Prof. Gavan informs us that the num ber of pupils now enrolled in The Dalles public schools is larger than for any previous Thanksgiving time in four years. In 1888 there were 431 pupils enrolled, '89, 443; '90,426; '91, 460. The ten teachers we have here to direct this youthful army have not much time for recreation. THE TIME TO SELL HORSES. Of Our old time friend Jacob Hunsaker, called today to pay his farewell respects as he goes to Everett to domicile in fu ture. "Jake and I were boys together," and as Everett is to be the home of the whaleback, we feel that the place has two big things to be proud of. Mr. Hunsaker is much more than an ordi nary citizen, wherever he lives. The lowest bid on the canal comple tion at the cascades is that of J. G. & I N. Day, of San Francisco, who bid $1,- 521,265, which was $8,000 below any other bid. The contractors will be re quired to furnish bonds in the sum of $400,000. This they are prepared to do, and they are ready to go to work just as quick as Gods of the United States Engineering corps will let them then we can predict a speedy completion of of the work. The attention of farmers about The Dalles is called to. an article today on engar beets. It seems to us they should not let an opportunity pass to secure the location of a beet Bugar factory in The Dalles. It means from $40 to $75 and $100 per acre clear, after deducting expenses of cultivating them, besides in creasing the values of farm prop erty 200 and 300 per cent. Ex periments so far have been satis factory ad to the quality of the beet raised, and it j$ thought that there will be no trouble in getting the desired acreage planted as soon as the definite proposition can be made to our farmers by the factory people. The first calendar of the season and the finest, comes to The Cabonicle of fice from F. G. Connelly, representing the State insurance company of Salem. The new poetoffice established about eleven miles south of The Dalles, and named Endersby in honor of Captain Endersby, started business on the 1st inst., with Geo. Fligg as postmaster. Invitations are out for a dress parade, inspection and military ball to be given at the Armory on Tuesday evening. December 6th. Assembly at 8 o'clock sharp. Military guests in uniform. Music by The Dalles orchestra. At the city council meeting tonight it is thought some method will be provided for cleaning the streets. . It has been suggested to scrape the sloppy stuff from the center of the streets and after it hardens cart it away. There will be a sacred concert and praise service tomorrow evening at the M. E. church at 7 :30 o'clock, the collec tion to be used to procure hymnals. All are invited. The Arlington Record has ehorn the detective Sullivan affair, up in Gilliam county, of its Police Gazette fiction, and shows that the courageous detectives were simple cowards. Mrs. F. L. Bancroft will give lessons in oil painting, pastel, crayon, etc., and will fill orders in portrait or landscapi painting at reasonable prices. This is rare chance to get Christmas orders filled, as she is a thorough artist. Her work may be seen at Mrs. Brittan's, on becond street. . The weekly meeting of the dancing club at Wingate hall last evening was exceptionally enjoyable, about twenty five couples being present, who put in their time as only young people know how, until the hour for adjournment. rnese weekly cluo meetings are quite factor in the social life of the city. From the Daily Chronicle, Monday. Prof. Frazier of Dufur, was in the city C I atuiuay. I The M. K, We don't see any pictures of Jay Gould illustrating his death notices. Elder Roberts friends will be glad to hear that he is improving since hid arri val at Paso de Kobels. A beautiful display of northern lights were seen from The Dalles about 6 :30 last evening in the northwestern sky. The Cosmopolitan for December is the crowning number of the year. The il lustrations are up to the standard, and the excellence of the literary work could not be excelled. Filling teeth by electricity is now suc- eessfully carried on by Dr. Sanders in The Dalles. He has a very fine modern appliance, and it virtually "works to charm." No country under the sun can produce finer weather than we of The Dalles are now enjoying. Crisp mornings, and bright genial sunny days. Only 1.15 of rain last month ; but it wet us some. A party of four from the Oregonian staff, went through en route homeward on tne mgnt train from a wild goose chase up in Sherman county. They had forty fine fat geese as trophies of the trip. Mr. and Mrs. Capt. F. H. Sherman have at las; secured a place for resi dence in The Dalles having leased Mrs. Logan's house, near Col. Sinnott's, where they will be "at home" about the middle of this week. : Business will take such a start in The Dalles within sixty days from date as to make everybody happy. This is said understandingly. Her worst days have 3d. The future is as bright and sunny as the day. . f Doc Taylorand Josh Hardy have re, turned from their Wild Goose Chase While coming home Doc says Josh never 8 poke a word for about ten miles, then he asked the conundrum : "If one wild goose costs a man $8.00, how much would a flock cost?" Doc decided that it de pended on the size of the flock and how high they flew. The inference is left that they were not in luck. The Masonic fraternity of Hood River were visited by a delegation from The Dalles Saturday evening, the occasion being the first work of Hood River lodjje. in the M. M. degree. A very fine lec ture was given by Past Master Charles Hilton, after which a bountiful spread was laid at the Mount Hood hotel, where all enjoyed themselves nntil the arrival of the homeward bound train. Those attending from Ihe Dalles were Judge Blakeley, Dr. H. Logan, Hon. Chas. Hilton, Wm. McCrum, Richard Closter, H. Clough, W. H. Lochhead, L. Booth, Jos. Erhart, and William Kel sey of Antelope. A delegation from Cascade Locks was also present, includ ing Dr. Leavins,' Messrs. Kildall, Williams, and several others. Visiting brothers pay Hood River lodge a high compliment on the efficiency of their work. Their hospitality is unlimited. Speaking of the present run' of Royal Chinook salmon in the Columbia, the Oregonian yesterday endorsed The Chronicle upon the subject by saying "When the young salmon once departi trom tne tresn water in wnicn he was born, he disappears in the depths of the ocean, no one knows where, and does not return until he is a full-grown fish 4 years of age. This is the reason why th.e chinook salmon caught in the Columbia are of such uniform size, They are all four years of age, with but few exceptions." And, our contempo rary might have added: the fish could not hatch from the spawn during the bright of the fishing season, because of the miles of lead lines and other traps, wheels, etc., they must of course, have hatched later in the season which accounts for the present run ; and which, if permitted to spawn in peace, will account for an increased run four years hence, December 1896. Experience of an Oregonian im The Market of Indiana. In an interview with James Elkins, who has just returned from Indiana, where he went in October with a load of horses to find a market more ready than at home he said that he sold out his lot of horses, mostly unbroken, at from $62 to $50, netting after all ex penses, about $35 dollars which he con siders too low. If it had been in the spring season he could have realized $40 to 45 net, from the good class he had at" which prices a man could go out of the business fairly well. The farmers in the states sell off their surplus horses in the fall, to save feed, expecting to supply their need of teams in the spring. borne parties netted but from $15 to $20, and one man got but $4.50 per head for his horses. This stock, however, was of a smaller grade, from Montana, thous ands of which have been shipped to the states, causing a degree of prejudice against western horses, and if unbroke, buyers are shy of them. The market in South Dakota has been good the past summer. There now being no market for the herds of horses raised in Eastern Oregon, the Willamette valley and sound country, the only chance to realize any thing from that industry lies in shiDDin? to a uistanc Dut expensive market, Mr. Elkins made the trip to learn the best ways of handling stock and to find a market where he might dispose of his herd next summer. South Dakota he considered as good a state to go to as any in the spring and not so far to ship. THE PILOT SCHOONER. Hew the An Inspection Tovr. BENEFIT TO THB CHOIR. Church Filled to Overflowing-. The Sac ret Concert. The new M. E. church was tested to its fall capacity last night to seat the audience which congregated to listen to the sacred concert given for the benefit of the choir. It is well known that at the fire last year the only articles saved from the church was the pulpit bible and a few chairs. The collection taken up last night was for the purpose of purchasing hymnals. We felt very much like suggesting to Rev. Mr. Whis ler, alter tne collection, tnat the money be counted then and there, and if not sufficient for the purpose that another collection be proceeded with at once, for the concert was very worthy of a liberal contribution for its excellence. Follow ing was the programme : Voluntary by Miss Winifred Mason, Hymn, "Come Great Deliverer. uome, choir and congregation, rrayer by Kev. W bisler. Anthem, "Gloria," choir. Recitation, "No Sect in Heaven." Aiiss Jennie Kussen. Solo, Mrs. Grace Condon. Hymn, "Onward Christian Soldiers." choir and congregation. Address,-"The .rower of Music," Kev. Whisler. Duet, "Weary One Come." Edna Glenn and Bessie Rowland. Quartette, W. C. Allaway, G. C. Snowden, J. F. Haworth, J. Parrot. . ' Collection. i Solo, Mrs. W. L. Bradshaw. Recitation, Bessie French and Georgia Sampson. Anthem, "Bless the Lord,' choir. Mandolins and guitars. "Nearer My God to Thee," Misses Annette and Myrtle Michell, Messrs F. Garretson, J. Hymn, "God be With You Till we Meet Again," choir and congregation. Benediction. Maj. Handbury jokes occasionally, as may be inferred from the following from the official journal of corporations : Major Handbury, United States en gineer, has made an inspection of the work done for the improvement of navi gation of the Yamhill river. He went to McMinnville and came down the river to Lafayette in a skiff, having been over the river below that point previously. He says the water was at a good boatirie omgc in we river, wnicn is now naviga ble for steamboats clear up to McMin ville, but he did not see any boats run ning, nor any warehouses along the banks or other evidence of preparation for carrying on commerce by the water route. We beg to refer this joke to Dqc. Ap- person, Wm. Campbell, Hon John Wort- man and Judee Gallowav. They would probably explain why it is'.that the major did not see the things enu merated "for carrying on commerce by the water route." There was a time when McMinnville was at the head of navigation, on the Yamhill river, and the people were prosperous to a degree, much more so than now ; but that was before the days of monopoly. Since then the inland traffic of the Willamette valley has been bottled up effectually. There is this difference between the val ley and the Inland Empire. We have never enjoyed unobstructed navigation they have. They were once well pro-1 vided with water transportation facili ties, and an open river. The influence of the monopoly destroyed it. We have been endeavoring' to secure an open river and the same system of monopoly prevents us from obtaining it. The Union Pacific Railway company is our enemy at court, down there is somebody else. The Gentleman From New York. Little Thins Behaved 1 Recent Gale. When Weeks brought the schooner San Jose up to Astoria from California, and turned her over to the state board 'of pilot commissioners, for the Columbia river bar, she was universally-- con demned, as only fit for absorbing appro priations. On the 6th she went outside on one of her regular cruises looking for ships, and encountered the westerly storm that raged with more or less vio lence for fifty-six hours. . When the storm first struck them they were only six miles- from land and were compelled to face a heavy sea and beat off the lee shore. It took them three days to make eight miles, and all this time there was no opportunity for rest, sleep and meals. The heavy -seas washed over the deck in a deluge, dashing in the faces of the men, who were compelled 'to be on the alert continually. The vessel being small, drawing only six feet, they dared not let the sea strike her abeam for fear she Bhould capsize. . The pilots say they should have a schooner of eighty or ninety tons of ap proved model, to be prepared for the severe weather they are sometimes com pelled to remain ont in. The hardship of such a life is severe enough even with the best vessels that can be constructed.. The San Jose, they say, will do well enough for smooth water, but to go out and plow through a sea that severely tries the finest ships is more than rxn be done With safety to her crew. The pilots say they should have money pro vided tnat .would enable them to have fine schooner made according to the model of the beat boats sailing out of flew York harbor. Then thev could give the Columbia river a pilot service unexcelled in the world. If our legisla tors were compelled to take a trip or two out in the offing and lay there dur ing a storm, they would vote unani mously for the best vessel that could be made for the occasion. Life is as dear to a pilot as it is to a legislator. WOKK AT THE DALLES. tWlt Ten want title to Government er State Lands call on C. N. THORNBUEY, Late Keo. 0. 8. Land Offloe. T. A.

THE DALLES - - - . ORKQOK. Look aa Though a. Portage Railway Will Be Built. A Washington dispatch today says the board, composed of four army offic ers and three citizens, to. examine the dalles of the Columbia and report upon the feasibility of the boat railway scheme, will probably have that docu ment ready at an early date for the pres ent session of congress. From intima tions dropped around the war depart ment, it is evident that this board will not give such a glowing account of the feasibility of the boat railway scheme as was hoped, and that possibly it may report in favor of a portage-railway scheme. A report in favor of a portage scheme will not meet with favor, as congress will be ' slow to do anything which looks like engaging in the management of a railway. This also operates against any boat-railway scheme, and the only thing left is the construction of canal and locks, or a xrtage railway to be built by the state.

Otherwise he is quite a respectful citizen, barring a certain stiff nesss of manner incidental or sequential to a residence in Gotham. Yesterday his business took him into O. D.

Mr. Formerly. responded Mr. Hubbard with a genial smile. "Glad to see you. Sit down Mr. Formerly. The gentleman was stupified. "I beg pardon," he said vaguely. "Don't mention it." responded Hubbard. I believe," continued the visitor, somewnat nettled, "that you called me Mr. formerly. That is not my name sir. My name is Brown." This.time it was Hubbard's turn to be embarrassed. Oh, ah. excuse' me." he said. " understood you to say vou were Mr John Brown Formerly of New York. The visitor accepted the explanation and transacted his business, but he can't be convinced that Hubbard was guying him. American Cholera. From the Daily Rkteilli, Whatcom, Wash. T. C. Burnett, the democratic cand date for sheriff, was taken violently ill at Clearbrook. He had all the symp toms of Asiatic cholera, and for an hour or two it was feared he would die. lhey finally gave him a dose of Chamberlain's Uolic, (Jholera and Diarrhoea Kemedy, which revived him until & physician ar rived."
