Prairie chlckena are said to lie more plentiful thia acaaon than for years past. Hunters kill from tnlrty to sixty in a few hours, and then quit lecause they couldn't carry them home. A log rolled on John lenis, who was working at the Oregon I.utnlier Co.'s nulls hint week, but he crawled away without any broken hones when his companions took It off him. Mr. Tulle, the grand duke of Celilo, is preparing to do some fishing as soon as the season ojiens. If the silver side run keep up be will add several thousand rates to the salmon crop this fall. Mr. Victor Moretti, the famous fresco Hint, has been engaged by the Sisters to do some ornamental work in the chupol, and will be hero next week. This will furnish an opportunity for ethers to have work done in tlmt line. Those attending the tournament at Oregon City will leave here Sunday. Engineer Urown has tainted and orna mented the old hand engine, aud It will be taken to Oregon City and take Its place in the parade. Work on the Clear lake caual is luting poshed rapidly. About 150 men and forty team are at work steadily. The caual will be eighteen feet wide on top, twelve feet on the bottom, and four feet deep, and lieeidea this it will prove of inestimable value to the country tribu tary to it. The O. R. & N. made quite a settlo aieut for the death of Mr. Moore of Hood River, who was killed by a pulley falling from a pile driver while repairing s trestle near that place a few weeks ago. Yesterday Mr. D. K. Hall, claim agent lor the company, met Mrs. Moore here and paid her f 1700 in full settlement of all claims tor damages. Mr. A. Tilxer of Oregon City, formerly a druggist in the employ of Klakeley A Houghton of this city, was severely burned ubout the hands and face by the explosion of about two drachms of ether be was using in filling a prescription. His clothing was set on fire and it was only by great presence of mind that a catastrophe was averted. The hole knocked in the Kegulator ilirtiuk considerable during the night. The reporta toduy show that the hole was 11' by 4 inches instead of that many feet as reported yesterday. It may be possible the story grew on its way up, the prolific toil and One climate of Hood Hirer giving it a boost as it passed by At any rate, the bole was 144 times larirer when the news reached here than it was when It left the Locks. Hood River is in hard lines, and her goodly citizens today are going unshaven snd unshorn just because some evil minded burglar burglarised the barber nop and made a clean-np. He took two dozen razors, five or six pairs of clippers, all the scissors, and in fact perilling in the shop except the chairs, 'mirrors and stove. The shop belonged to Grant Kvans. Kobert McDonald, who was working "it" a threshing crew on Mr. Patter- ton's place on,8-Mi!e, waa struck on the aead by a derrick fork yesterday after noon about 3 o'clock and remained on ontoioua for about three hours. Dr. Hollimer was called and did everything Possible for the unfortunate man. Un tas the unforeseen happens Mr. Mc Donald will be all right in a day or two. fcam Klein and Charley Hall started " a flailing expedition down the Col umbia thin morning in small boat. The itort was made from the Regulator wharf, and as 8am undertook to place a xx of provisions in the boat he stepped on lome loose object and slipped, rolling '"to the water. He turned over as he hll and grabbed the wharf so that he Hy went in np to his neck, but he held the grub high and dry. As he and his Precious load wore pulled ashore he re marked that it was "a blamed fine start nyhow."

She will prob ably make the trip up tomorrow. Minnie Hill, one of the young ladies taken charge of by the Sulfation Army a month or to ago, and by them dent hark to her borne at Prineville, died at that place a day or to ago. One report ii that the committed auicide, going by the morphine route; but tlili statement i denied. Governor I'eunoyer has appointed Frank V. Drake of 1'ortland, judge-advocate-general; Charles II. Hyde of Baker City, chief-of-ordnanre, and Mr. Dalryuiple of Kugene, commissary-general of the Oregon National Guard. One is a democrat, one a republican and one a populist. Engineer iirown is repainting and or namenting the old hand engine, getting it ready for the Oregon City tournament. It is paiuted red, white and blue, and on the top will be a magnificent cougar. About fifty members of the different companies will go on the trip, leaving here Sunday. The regular subscription price of the Wkixi.y Ciiuoxiltk la $1.50 and the regular price of the Wkicklt Obkgoman la $1.00.' Any one subscribing for Tux Ciiuomci.k and paying for one year in advance can get both Tnc Ciiuokiclc and the Wkcki.y Okkoonian for $2.00. All old aubscrilers paying their sub scriptions a year in advance will be en titled to the same offer. Portland anticipates the coming of the Codnhys, the famous Chicago puckers, and the establishing of a large packing bouse in that city- It would prove of great benefit to the state, being needed more thuu any other one thing. It would make Portland a market for tbe cattle and hogs of tbe state, and would remove from our great state the shame of importing its cured meats and lards. W. T. Casey informs the Prineville Reveiw that on his ranch at Powell But tee a waterspout occured last spring, digging a treuch through the side of his field. The trench was so deep that it ex potted the bedrock in a numlierof places. At one of these places a nice cool spring of water flows, where there was no sign of water liefore tbe trench was dng. There appear to be veins of water near the surface all through the desert, if one only knew where to dig to strike them. Cridny'i Daily. Von can buy a round trip ticiet to Portland Sunday for $X City council meets tomorrow night. If you have bills against the city present them. City Recorder Dufur arrived home last night, and thia morning sentenced the fiast and only victim to pay a tine of $10. Mr. Geo. F. Wells, formerly engaged in the sheep business here, died Wednesday in Portland, of consump tion. Tbe county court Wednesday granted a license to operate a furry between Hood River and White Salmon to J. R. Rankin. The steamer Regulator will not make her regular trip until Monday, as it will take a day or more to put her in first class shape again. The smoke has been denser today than at any time Hub season. The surround ing hills are out of sight, and the Wash ington shore of the Columbia looks dim and misty, and far away. There will be a meeting of the stock holders of Tbe Dalles canning company tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock in Mr. Hugh Gleun's office. Important busi ness is to be transacted, and a full at tended la required. Monday being Labor day, and there fore both a national and state holiday, Tiia Chronicle force will join the vast throng of American laborers In observ ing it. In consequence there will be no Ciirokici.i issued Manday. The Regulator will leave the Locks this evening and will be here either to night or early in the morning, bringing all freight now at the Locks. Freight will be received tomorrow to go down Monday when she will resume her regular trips. Dr. Sanders presented Tux Cimojuci.x force a line box of grapes raised on his Roseland farm, three miles from town. The fruit is of fine appearance and deli cious flavor, equalling California's choicest product. Wasco is the beet fruit county In tbe state, And but a few years will demonstrate this fuct. Mtlton Morris, whom we reported as having his arm torn oft" in a threshing machine at Wapinitia, did uot get his arm in the cylinder but in the cogs. The bones were not broken, but the flesh was stripped from the elbow to the shoulder. It may yet be possible the arm w ill have to be amputated. TheOregonian sneaks of a party re turning from Mount St. Helens, and adds that they made the trip on bicy cles and camped six days at Trout lake, from which we judge the writer Inad vertantly named St. Helens when he meant Mt. Adams. There is a fine road to Mt. Adams, but none to St. Helens. Some person or persons, with a highly developed sense of the humorous and a unique originality, changed a lot of busi ness signs last night. The principle point of the joke was that the owners of the iigni were put to some laconveu- ience in getting their signs bark. This delicate witticism is mentioned by Jose phus a having originated in Tyre, which is why, perhaps, its perpetration generally gives one that Tyred feeling. And now comes the statement that Minnie Hill of Prineville is not dead, but only sick. We do not know as to the truth or falsity of this statement, but we do know that more stories get circulated and are told to the innocent nnsnspecting reporter, than can be har monized with a respect for truth. This state of affaire Is liable to ruin ones con fidence, and if kept np, we shall begin to doubt the truthfulness, even of the Salem Statesman. For tbe information of those who are going to Oregon City or Portland on Sunday morning, we have been asked to state that the tickets will be on sale at tbe Umatilla House on Saturday after noon between 3 and 8 o'clock, rnd would suggest that as many as can make it convenient avail themselves of this opportunity, so as to avoid delay and confusion in the morning. Also that tbe special car ordered will be put on the side track near the hotel. Go on board, get a good seat, and wait patiently un til No. 1 comes along and carries yon off. Ta Lneata at Antelope. Dr. Victor Hawthorne Smith, son of W. K. Smith of Portland, graduate of the University of Virginia and of Belle vue hospital of New York and at pres ent assistant house surgeon at St. Vin cent's hospital, Portland, went out to Antelope yesterday. It is quite possi ble that he may locate there. Besides being well up in his profession, Dr. Smith is a great believer in athletics, being himself a first-class kicker, but only in the foot-ball line. He is a mem ber of tbe Multnomah foot-ball club. Should be conclude to locate at Ante lope, that section will take tbe lead in sporting matters, with the boss foot racer, Shutt, the boss ball club, and tbe leading foot-ball player. But, more im portant than all, Antelope will have a first-ciass physician. The Firemen's Meeting- The firemen had a meeting last night to complete arrangements for attending the tournament. In tbe absence of Chairman Fish, U. J. Maier presided. The committee on transportation re ported, and was discharged. On motion a committee of three, con sisting of Judge Liebe, C. C. Cooper and II. Whitmore, was appointed to have charge of the transportation of the en gine. On motion W. II. Locbhead was in structed to have fifty-two badges made, white body with red letters, and the words "Dalles City Fire Department" thereon. It was decided to start Sunday, going by rail. The fare for tbe round trip to Portland will be $!!, and this to every body who goes, whether firemen or not. For a City I'nion. Thk Dalles, Aug. 2K, 1S94. Representatives from the Christian Endeavor societies and the Epworth League met this evening in the vestry of the Congregational church, to consider plans for forming a city union of these societies, that more efficient work may be done for our master, Jesus Christ. Alfred Hoering was elected chairman of the meeting and a pleasant though in formal talk was engaged in by those present. It was decided to defer tbe organization for the present and hold a union prayer and consecration service, the thought being to hold this union service one week from next Sunday evening, in one of tbe churches, and if deemed advisable to call a meeting for organization some time in tbe week following. N. V. Senator Mates Killed. Hon. P. B. Gates of Lafayette, was killed by a falling limb, Tuesday, while on a hunting trip twelve miles from Nehalem. Tbe party were all in bed at about midnight when a windstorm came up. Their tent was blown down and almost at the same moment a limb fell, striking Mr. Gates on the head, killing him instantly. He was a mem ber of the state senate from Yamhill county. Wome and Wornr. C. C. Christuan got the returns for twenty-five crates of plums this morning with a bill for $10.07 bnlance of ex penses. But it is all right, all things work for the bed for those that love the Lord. He bus sold two fruit driers this morning and expects to sell eight or ten more as soon as the rest of the shippers get their returns.- Handera Mtarderant, lntlt. Dr. Sanders has associated with him self in his dental practice Dr. Sturde vant, who is a graduate of the dental college of the University of Michigan, and has had six consecutive years in the practice of dentistry, having spent over one year of that time running an office for himself. Ileal Enlate Trannartton. The following deed was filed for record to-day : Kate R. and Louis F. Hender son to Catherine L.

While those who were unable to leave town have been enduring the swelter ing August heat as best they could, others have been making the most of tbe cool, rarified atmosphere of the mountains, and from time to time dur ing the entire heated term various par ties have been going and coming from the various lesorts. We venture to say, however, that no mora enjoyable time ha been experienced than that of Messrs. D.8. Dufur, Wm. Young, II. II Riddell and Frank Menefee, who, armed with complete camp equipment and it Complement cf guns and fishing rods, left a few days since for tbe high mount ains in which 15-Mile creek has its source. A day spent on tbe road found them esconsed in a snug camp on tbe head waters of 15-Mile, a short distance from the place wher the body of the outlaw, nays, was iound. A snort time waa passed at thia camp, when they moved a few milea further into tbe mountains to Ramsey springs, preparatory to a trip over the range to Badger lake. H. Gibons and F. Pundt, and later on Frank Klein and Otia Savage came in, all bound for the lake. Here also the road ended and the camp outfit had to be packed on the backs of horses. Sunday afternoon they moved op to the source of 8-Mile. Tbe aurora bore al is of that night were seen very clearly from camp, and in the clear atmosphere of the high mountaina presented a very beautiful sight. On Monday a tramp of a few miles brought them to the summit of Mt. Gunngewhack, at an altitude of nearly 9000 feet, and scrambling np over the dep snow banks that cover its summit they rnld see the lake, almost at their feet, lying in a very deep, horse shoe shaped e.myon, about 3000 feet be low them. Tbe view from this point beggars description and is certainly one of the most magnificant in all tbe Cas cade mountaina. After a short time apent in resting nd admiring tbe grand scenery, the steep descent of Gunge whack was commenced. It waa tedious work for tbe pack horses could move but alowly, aa a misstep might cause a severe accident ; but all went well and the lake was reached about the middle of the afternoon, and a very pretty camp made on ita ahore. A number of grouse had been shot on the way in and with plenty of lake trout, and tbe provisions taken in there was no danger of a famine though appetitea were enormous. The first night spent at tbe lake shortly after retiring, the measured tread of some large animal waa heard a short distance from their beds. Thoughts of panthers and other fierce animals at once rushed through tbe beads of those hearing it, and a rush was made in full dress for tbe rifles. While the best shots in the party were endeavoring to get a shot, one rushed to the fire and threw a pile of dried fir boughs on the coals which at once burst into a fierce blaze and tbe cougar at once fled without giving opportunity for a shot. After a couple of days fishing the party retraced their steps up the steep sides of Gunngewhack and camped at High prairie !nd worked their way by eaey stages bunting and fishing down to their headquarters at Ramsey, where they secured their team and returned to The Dalles. A Strange Animal. From Hon. E. B. Dufur, who has been quietly investigating the circumstances concerning the visit of a panther to the camp of Meuf. Riddell and others at Badger lake, we learn that tbe matter is really of more importance than the gen tlemen named are disposed to admit. They all bay that it was a panther, but they have told this story because they do not desire to lose their reputation for truth and veracity. Mr. Dufur tells us that they admit to him quietly that the animal, whatever it was, was much larger than any conger. When first seen ita eyes shone with a deep red gleam like President Cleveland's when the Gorman bill was submitted to him, j and that each eye was larger than tbe full moon in September. When fright ened by the big blaze made by Mr. Young, the animal tied along the edge of the lake breaking down trees over a fool in diameter and leaving a path of broken trees over thirty feet wide. The tracks of tbe animal were nearly round, meas uring a trifle over four feet in diameter. The animal sunk a foot into the solid ground at each step. Mr. Dufur thinks it w as an icthyoeaurus, but the gentle men w ho saw it are of the opinion it was either a pterodactyl or nn onomas ticon. In our opinion it certainly could be identified by a thorough study of tbe latter. At any rate we fail to see why a fish-li..ard should have tackled a fishing party's camp for fish are generally scarcer there than anywhere. The Itranrb Anyluni. The case of the "State of Oregon upon relation of A.C. Taylor, respondent, vs. Sylvester Pennoyer, Phil Metschau, and George W.

Laughlin, until recently president and manager of The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation Com pany, waa yesterday tbe recipient of a handsome token of the esteem in which he is held by the employe of that com pany. He was requested to come to tbe steamer Dalles City, afid, reaching there found tbe ladies' cabin well filled with the employee of tbe company. Mr. Fred Wilson, the purser, in a neat speech presented him with an elegant watch charm studded with diamonds and bearing on one aide a handsomely engraved picture of the steamer Regula tor, plying on the middle river. Mr. Laughlin was so entirely taken by sur prise that he was a nnble to respond to Mr. Wilson, but the hearty handshake he gave to each showed how deeply he appreciated the manifestation of good will shown him. Oregon ian. They Had Them On. Jim Cottony and Joe Thomas, Indi ans, were arrested yesterday tor stealing a watch. Tbey were kept apart, one being confined in the city jail, and one in tbe county jail. One of them finally weakened and confessed to taking the watch, and in company with an officer went to where he had it hidden and re turned it. At the same time Mr. Hony will had made complaint about some one taking two or three pairs of pants from his store. An examination of tbe prisoners dieclosed tbe fact that each of them bad on two pairs of pants, Jne of each being new. and these were indenti. fied as tbe garments stolen from Mr. Honywill. They were taken before Jus tice Davis this morning charged with larceny from a store. We fancy a de fense of insanity might be successfully set up, for no sane man would go around itb a double outfit of breeches on with tbe thermometer standing at 97. Miners Strike. A report was current in this city Mon day that the miners at the Bobbins Elkhorn had gone on a strike for higher wages. Investigation proved the rumor to be correct and that the miners had gone out in a body and refused to return unless their wages were increased from 2.50 to $3.00 per day. The strike was a surprise to Mr. J. II. Kobbins, the superintendent, as he had always been of the opinion tbat the employee of the mine were well satisfied with the wages received, considering the hard times. It is stated that Mr. Kobbins has concluded to clo?e down the mine until he can pro cure a new crew. Oregon Blade. Moit Truth Than I'oetry.
