the street and saw the bent radiating in

Sunday night a genuine tidal wave is
reported as having swept across the

nian's bout and a scow anchored near

came from, no one ran tell, but it was
there all the same.
A fishing party up at St. Johns, New
foundland, ran into an iceberg and
twelve persona were drowned. Fishing
parties in Flastern Oregon seem to have
nothing to fear but "snakes," but as a

the camp larder and few fatalities occur.
So much for Oregon. Grant County

The Regulator brought up a large
amount of freight last night, and among
it a large supply of cans for Kverding A
Co. Yesterday a large force of men
were kept busy until after 7 o'clock get
ting the wharf clear. Without the

his intimate friend, and a very interest
ing series of Sherman portraits.
Mr. C. J. Crandall was at Hood River
Yesterday laying off tbe grounds for the
foundation of the new public school
house to be built there this summer.
The fact that Mr. Crandall drew the
plans, and will superintend the con
struction ia a guaranty that not only will
the building be first class, but there will
not be one amount for the contract, and
twice that for extras.
The lawn social to be given by the
ladies of the Congregational church on
the church grounds this evening gives
promise ot being a delightful affair.
Indeed anything that the Dalles ludies
undertake is always successful, and be
tween beauty and lemonde, cake aud
cream, and the fact that we will proba
bly be there ourself it will undoubtedly
be the affair of the season.
We stated yesterday that the ball
game between The Dalles and Dufur
clubs Sunday resulted in a victory for
Dufur by a score of (i to 4. This score
was handed us by one of The Dalles
boys. Now comes a report from Dufur
that the score was 10 to 8. We don't
know which is correct, but it looks to
us as though the country had not yet
fully recovered from the prevarications
washed to the surface during the flood.
And now the report is that the O. R.
& N. will bring the Cyclone, the little
steamer that litis been running from
Portland to Albina, over the rapids at
the Cascades, vr uiore likely around
them. Freight ' will be handled from
the Locks beginning today, the boat
connecting with the railroad at that
point. The Cyclone is not expected to
handle this work, but w ill be used in
towing and supplying the bridge men
with timbers and material.
Arc Receiving Freight.
The O. K. & N. gives notice that it
will commence receiving freight from
Portland for points east tomorrow. The
road is expected to be finished to the
Locks from Portland in a day or so, and
from the former place freight will lie
forwarded by flat bouts to The Dulles.
The road from Celilo to Rufus w ill soon
he in running order so that but one
transfer will be required, that from the
Locks here. Work is progressing rapidly
on the section between here and Hood
River, and three weeks or a month
should see it finished.

might properly lie brought before it.
The following candidate- for street
rommissioner were in nomination : J.
W. F:iton, W. A. Maddron, C. M. Fouts,
S. L. Klein, W. H. Butts. Mayor ap
pointed Councilmen Johns and Nolan

sulted the same, and thereupon on mo
tion it was ordered that the election of a

all other business before the council
wss disposed of.
Report of the health and police corn
nil t tee relative to claims referred to it,
waa read as follows : In the matter of
the claim of John Crate, recommended
that he be allowed twenty-one dayt aa
quarantine officer, provided be shows to
the council sufficient evidence of attend
ance in cases mentioned ; and also be
allowed six daye as special policeman at
2.50 per day. In the matter of the

Namiamatlra.
This morning while ye reporter was
doing tome bard dipping (or an item in
the sheriff's office, J. B. Crossen started
the subject of numismatics by producing
an English coin made in the reign of
William with tbe three eyes in 1098. It
waa a handsome coin, and according
to Mr. Crossen'a very interesting story
of it, has a history. The coin was first
thrown cn the etage by William him
self, as a slight token of appreciation of
the actor's talent; the actor being an
uncle of Mr. Crossen'a by marriage, at
the close of a Hood River celebration in
which the actor bad repeated those re
cherche Hues entitled, "Curfew Shall
Not Ring Tonight," or "Who Kissed the
Cook." Soon, very soon after the pub
lic learned that the said colatteral con
sanguinous relative of Mr. Crossen's,
had committed the crime to memory,
said relative took passage on the May
flower for San FVancisco, coming by the
Nicaragua route and The Dalles boat
railway. Jimmy says there is a rumor
that he would have left sooner, but the
Mayflower was the first boat out. By a
lengthy and circuitous route, which we
cannot give in detail now, the piece
finally came into the possession of its
present owner, w ho prizes it highly be
cause as long as be keeps it be feels that
he isn't broke.
But this ia digression, which we will
pursue some other time. What we was
going to say was that Judge Bradshaw,
who was checking up the profit and loss
on a receipt for taxes, remarked that he
had a much more valuable and exceed
ingly rare coin, and then after exciting
everybody's curiosity by going first in
one pocket and then another for it, pro
duced a big yellow twenty-dollar piece.
The f'ireiuea's Tournament.
The Oregon City Enterprise says :
"The next Firemen's Association will
be held in this city the last week in
September and it is the intention ol the
firemen here to make it the best meet
ing ever held and in order to insure its
success they w ill arrange for a two day'e
tournament during which time some fine
races and contests will come off. In
order to make all necessary preparations
for this meeting, committees have been
appointed by Chief KngineerO.Connell."
Oregon City is one of the prettiest and
most progressive places in the state, and
it has one of the best fire departments
too. The Oregon City boys came up
i ere last year bringing a gocd team, and
a hrass minil. 1 lie l 'tines uoya snouia
return the compliment, and we hope in
a spirit of generous rivalry will send
down a team and competing for the
pri.es, show our Oregon City friends
that we appreciated their visit.
That llojr of Hurt.
Rudy, the 12-year-old heir apparent
to all our vast properties, distinguished
himself at Hood River Saturday by
standing in w ith the only father he has
to furnish an item. He had been swim
ming in a pond this side of Hood River,
and was going home with his coiuradea
when the hand-car came along. He
undertook to cross the railroad bridge
running on the outside plank and hold
iiitf fast to trie handle of the car. For
getful of the fact that one thing at a
time is enough for a small boy to at
tempt, he tried to get some cherries
out of hia pocket while under full head
way, and ro, not watching, be atubbed
his too and took a bender Into Hood
river, twenty-five feet below. The
water was fifteen or twenty feet deep,
and as he struck "head on" no damage
w as done. Being a good swimmer, he
struck out i r shore, which he reached
all right.
Aa we have to bay his clothes, we
cannot help a fee'ing of thankfulness
that w hile they will probably shrink,
the boy was scared out of enongh
growth that they will ttill fit him.
A Vcrj Cloaa Call.
Dr. Brosius met with an accident at
Hood River yesterday that came near
costing him his life. In company with
hia brother-in-law, Ed Williams, he
was preparing to go fishing over at
Chenowith. He had hitched up hit big
black horse, and driven over to the
blacksmith shop to have some trifling
repairs made. In getting into the
buggy the horse suddenly plunged
forward, and striking a rock, the doctor
was thrown out, one foot caught between
the buggy bed and the running gear,
and he fell on his back. The horse
ran, fortunately in a circle, dragging
the doctor over the rough ground. Mr.
Will Yates, at considerable risk to him
self, caught the horse just as he was
starting over a vacant lot covered with
big rocks, and the doctor was extricated
from bis perilous position. Had the
horse not been caught just when he
was, there could have been but one re
sult. Dr. Brosius waa able to walk home,
but was badly bruised and about as
thoroughly skinned as if a Tacoma real
estate shark had had hold of him. The
doctor eayt something frightened his
horse just as be slipped into the car
riage, and blames himself for the acci
dent more than the animal.
Oa Ml. Hood.
Doug. Langille was on the top of Mt.
Hood last week, and put a long rope in
place over the most difficult portion of
the route. He reports the tnow at be
ing very aoft, and aaya that unless tbe
weather turns much cooler no lady
Mazamaress can reach the summit. He
also aaya the summit it a glare of ice,
and every Mazama will be compelled to
have hit or her hoofs ateel shod to stay
there. A large numbei of candidates
for the goat rank arrived at Hood River
last night and went out to Cloud Cap
Inn today. Tomorrow everything will
be prepared for the ascent, whicli will
be made Thursday morning. It ia quite
possible some red fire will be shown on
the summit Thursday night. Look out
for it.

E. Jacobsen, either in malice or guile,
gave us a sample of what is known aa
an everlasting fire-cracker, he having
them for sale. The instrument is con
structed of a hollow piece of wood, over
which is a hinged rubber cap. By plac
ing a piece of paper under the cap and
striking it a smart blow, the paper goes
burst with an exceedingly loud noise
like nnfo a fire-cracker. The measly
thing has made jis short on copy every
day since, for we can't help playing
with it. Its the only celebration possi

doesn't cost anything. You want to

Killed In Sacramento.
J!v private telegram we learn that
theie was another eerious outbreak in
Sacramento yesterday. We are unable
to give full particulars, but gather from
the brief dispatch that about 00 strikers
tried to stop a train near the depot by
exploding a charge of dynamite under
it. The intention was to blowup the
car in which the regulars were riding,
but the explosion coming a trifle too
quick, killed a lot of horsea. The regu
lars opened fire and a number of strik
ers were wounded. The mob fled.
