Saturday's Daily.
The warm weather has. started the
grass, and the hills are beginning to
show the rich green tints of spring.
Remember the grand concert at the
Eight Mile school house, on the evening
, of March the 2d. A special invitation to
all.-
School Clerk E. Jacobsen has about
completed the census of the school
children, and finds the number will be
between 1000 and 1100.
A school district was organized yester
day at Endersby from portions of 22 and
28, and one Thursday at Viento. A peti
tion, to nnite districts 31 and 33 was con
sidered today, and the prayer of the peti
tion was refused.
We took a peep into the Vogt build
ing, opposite the Columbia Packing
Co.'s shops, just to see a small pile of
Oregon hog stored therein. The bacon
hams, etc., are in another building, but
in this one were thirty tons of dry-salt
sides and fifty barrels of lard.
The Portland Sun is responsible for
' the statement that at the caucus held by
Dolpb's supporters at Salem last night,
that the majority decided that Dolph
should withdraw, . and on a ballot
being taken in order to decide whom
to vote for, Joe Simon received 19, Wil
liams 6, Fulton 3, and Tongue 2.' The
vote today did not indorse that state'
ment.
The legislature did some work yester
day, and some of it was in the direction
of economy, and the keeping of pledges
and the platform. The appropriation
bill as it came from the hands of the
committee was $250,000 smaller than
two years ago. One item knocked from
the bill was the $20,000 intended for pay
ing the railroad commissioners. It looks
as though after all the railroad commis
dioners are going to get left. If there
are no funds to pay them with applicants
for he places will not be so numerous.
Monday's Daily.
The social to have been given by the
members of Fern lodge next Wednesday
evening, is postponed one month.
Mr. Leavins of the Cascade Locks tele
phoned here this morning that that
place had experienced an earthquake
shock the night before, and inquiring if
we had felt it here.-
The dispatches this morning announce
numerous cases ' of smallpox at Hot
Springs, Arkansas. This is the place
from which our smallpox patient came
leaving there ten days ago.
' Street Commissioner Butts desires to
state to all city property owners that
they must have the alleys adjoining
their property cleaned up within three
days. If this is not done, he will see
that the work is done for them and the
bill therefor collected.
Tuesday's Daily.
The divorce case of Jacobsen vs Jacob'
sen was up oetore J udge ttradsbaw in
chambers.
Al Bettingen has turned farmer, and
today sent a load of seed wheat out to
his ranch on 3-Mile this morning.
The concert and entertainment to be
given in the M. E. chnrch Wednesday,
March 6th, will be one of the best every
given here, as all of the best mnsical
talent will take part.
Rev. L. Grey of Oregon City, will
preach next Sunday, at 10:30 a. m., in
the Lutheran chapel on Ninth street,
In the evening, at 7 :30, be preaches in
English. All friends of the Lutheran
church especially also the Scandinavians,
are cordially invited. -
The Regulator since.sle has been over
hauled is by long odds the handsomest
and the most tastily furnished, boat on
the waters of any portion of the upper
Columbia.' ' She is carrying lots of freight
too, and the opening of the season indi
cates a reroakably prosperous one.
Pease & Mays are having the back
portion of their' immense store re
modeled. The office is being moved,
new windows cut through the back wall
and a dozen other minor improvements
made. When it is completed, and the
big stock now on the way is in, it will be
one of the very finest stores in Eastern
' Oregon. . '
The,-, earthquake , Monday morning
eeem'au to be general throughout the
Northwest. The reason that it was not
more generally noted is the hour at
which it occurred, that is about 4:45.
We know of no one here whcobserved it,
.but at Hood River several persons felt
it." Mr. John Parker, of that place, des
cribee it as two distinct shocks, the first
be sa j s made him think for a moment
that some one .was rattling the front
door and trying to get in.' This lasted
long enough for a . person to have gone
down stairs and out of the bouse. The
-second shock, was both shorter and
lighter.
The East End sidewalks havebeen
sprinkled with carbolic acid and other
mixtures that make a smell the like
whereof is .not smelled every day.
Moody, Filloon and Saltmarahe this
morning had a man with a sprinkling
pot scattering eheep-dip around then
places of business, reasoning that as
there must, be a scab in smallpox, every
thing that would prevent scab would
therefore prevent smallpox. -
A Smallpox Scare.
There is naturally considerable excite
ment over a case of smallpox being in
the city, and with it much unreasoning
and unreasonable . fear. Rumor, the
forked-tongued old jade, has been hark
ing on ner dogs, until the 1UU1 tales ot
Scberezade are a mere bagatelle. In
some portions ol the city, according to
the tales, there are six new cases of ma
lignant, confluent smallpox; . everybody
has been exposed, and by tomorrow
night one-half the town will be engaged
in burying tbe other half.
The simple truth is, there is one case
of smallpox, and in the same building
on the lower floor, the patient being up
stairs, are six other persons, who will be
removed tonight to the pest house. So
far as known, there has been no one ex
posed since the case' was known to be
smallpox, and of those exposed before
there is little or no danger of their taking
it. The six persons in quarantine have
all been vaccinated, and with proper
care there is no need of their being an
other case.
People forget that the smallpox ex
ists nearly all the time. Puget Sound
has been having it in almost continually
for the past six months. They "also for
get that science has made wonderfnl
strides of late years, and that the small'
pox is no longer a disease the end of
which is death. Scarlet fever and diph
theria are Infinitely more deadly, and
the mild-mannered grippe more danger
ous. We do not believe there will be
another case of it ; but in the meantime
the most rigid quarantine should be en
forced, and every precaution taken to
not only preyent its spread, but to
stamp it out. 'At the same time let our
people quit trying to scare each other to
death, and in a few days the whole mat
ter will be settled.
Connell Meeting.
A special meeting of the'clty council
was Held at the recorder's office last
night for the purpose of taking steps to
prevent the spread of smallpox. The
full council was present, with the excep
tion of tbe mayor. Councilman Nolan
was elected .chairman pro tern. It was
ordered that the persons in the Obarr
building, where the patient is, be re
moved with their beds and bedding to
the pest-house. On motion the commit
tee on health and police was given fall
power to act in all matters necessary to
prevent the spread of the disease and
protect the public health.
On motion adjourned.
- A Case ot Smallpox.
S. Monaban, a stockman, arrived here
irom Arkansas Thursday, and took a
room at the Obarr lodging house. Fri
day night he was taken sick and Satur
day morning Dr. Hollister was called in
The man had a high fever and symptoms
of smallpox, which developed during the
day until there was little doubt but that
was what the trouble was. As soon as
the nature of the case was suspected,
vigorous steps were at once taken to
quarantine the house, and those who
were unfortunate enough to be found in
the house were compelled to stay there,
and were vaccinated at once. The old
pest house having, fallen into decay, it
was decided to keep the patient where
he was found, which has been done.
Dr. Geisendorfer of Arlington, this
morning, in consultation with Dr. Hoi
lister agreed with him that the case was
one of smallpox. -

Maskers Enjoying the Music and
tbe Spectators Enjoying the
Maskers and Mirth.
The masquerade given last night by
the Woodmen was the affair of the sea
son, the only thing detracting from tbe
enjoyment of ' the occasion being the
fact that the walls of the building were
not far enough from each other to hold
tbe crowd comfortably. Chairs had
been provided, and between 300 and 400
spectators were ranged around the hall,
and enjoyed thoroughly the motley as
semblage that paraded before them.
There were eighty-five maskers, and
some of the costumes were very fine,
while of course some relied upon touch
ing the ludicrous to attract attention,
Miss Clara Ruffner as Queen Isabella
was awarded the prize for the handsom
est costume, and it was handsome too.
Mrs. Lorenson as a Spanish fisher-
woman captured the prize for best sus
tained character. Mr. J. R. McAvoy
got the first prize for best dressed gen-
tleman, representing a Spanish cavalier,
and Sam Thurman, as an Esquimau,
with the assistance of Register Moore's
big dog and a sled, was decided to be
the best sustained character. These
were the prize-winners. Of the others
there were many charming costumes
dainty little lairies, a beautiful "starry
night for a ramble," a belle "sleigh'
bells." 'Miss Lena Neilsen represented
The Chronicle, being dressed, even to
the hat, in that family paper, which for
once, at least, was tilled with tbe most
interesting matter. Ernest Drew, as a
monkey, made a close call for the prize,
as be sustained the character exceed
ingly well. The two big cigars made
the reporter want to go out and smoke,
even though they were made of cloth
wrappers and Dalles "fillers," J. Ullrich
being inside of one and J. McNeal the
other. Space will not permit further
mention of the characters.
The music furnished by the Orchestra
Union was fine, and that all who at
tended will long remember ' the Wood
men's masquerade of 1895, is a moral
certainty. Those taking part as mask'

gene Gordon, who leave tonight for
Leadville, Coloi, lakes " the' lead. Mr.

warm friends during a ten-months resi
dence in The Dalles, who took this
means of showing their esteem and the
regret felt " at their departure. ' About
thirty couples were present at the Bald

nished by the "Orchestral "Union, thor
oughly enjoyed - themselves in the
mazy" lot about three hours, when' all
adjourned to Keller's oyster parlors,
where 'one of his famous banquets was
served, during - which time everyone
seemed to be posseesed of the most
genial feeling, and as the following
who were present bade Mr. and Mrs.
Gordon good bye aI1 fe,t that th even

Tbe Caucus.
The Oregonian this morning, alter
giving an account of the regular repub
lican caucus and Senator Dolph 's speech
thereat, finishes its report of the caucus
as follows
"After the senator's speech, it was de
cided that a committee of three be ap
pointed to confer and recommend a plan
of action, and Senator Gesner, Repre-
sentative Smith of ' Josephine and
Speaker Moores were appointed. They
retired for some minutes, and after con
ferring together, and afterward with
Senator Dolph, returned to the meeting.
Their report was to the effect that Sen
ator Dolph could be elected tomorrow if
bis support would remain intact. After
a general discussion on the subject, in
cluding some long-winded speeches, a
ballot was taken as to whether Dolph
should be voted for again tomorrow.
Upon this there were thirteen votes
against such action and seventeen votes
in favor. Then, the hour being late,'
and only thirty members being present,
and tbe house members being tired with
the long night session, the meeting ad
journed till 8 ;30 tomorrow morning.'
A Runaway.
There was an exciting runaway this
morning, that happily ended without
any one being hurt, or much damage be
ing done. Mr. Maloney was driving the
delivery team, a one horse rig, and was
standing up in the wagon, a small boy,
Pearl Haslam,' being with him." As
they came down the bill near the Meth
odist church, one side of the shafts
dropped, the wagon took a lurch to port,
and Malonev fell over the side of the
wagon, his foot catching and he was
dragged under the wagon for fifty yards.
Tbe Haslam boy fell at the same time,
but inside the wagon bed. Tbe horse
ran down Washington at a rather slow
gait, being hampered by the shafts and
came almost to a halt just below The
Chronicle office. Tbe boy took advan
tage of the lull in the pace to climb out
over tbe back of tbe wagon, and as he
struck the ground he threw up his hands,
gave a whoop and shouted, "I ain't
hurt." The horse was caught .at the
corner of Washington and First, and a
bolt repaired all damages. Maloney
fortunately escaped without injury.
Would All Want the Onion.
A Pendleton gentleman visiting in the
Willamette valley sends tbe following,
savs the Tribune: v
Society is always on the alert for
some thing new and novel. A new game
called the 'onion social' has made its
appearance and is growing into the favor
of the young people. This is how it is
played: Six young ladies stand in a
row ; one of them bites a piece out of an
onion, and the gentlemen pay 10 cents to
guess who bit it. The correct guessers
kiss the other five girls, while the
unsuccessful kiss the lass who bit the
onion. People who don t believe In card
playing ought to enjoy this game."
As it is fair to presume that at least
five would guess wrong where one guessed
correctly, it will be seen that the girl
who bit the onion would get five kisses
to the other girls' one. This would come
under the head of class legislation, and
here in The Dalles would cause a row the
first time the game was played, for every
girl would want to bite tbe oniOn.
The Situation at Salem.
The election of a senator is the ques
tion that today is absorbing the atten
tion of the entire state. It was asserted
last night that Dolph would be elected
today, but after eight ballots the only
result was a loss of two votes by him.
At tbe end of the eighth ballot the joint
session adjourned until 7 :30 this even
ing. In the the first Beven ballots the
vote stood: Dolph 38, Williams 28,
Hare 10, Galloway 7, Fulton 3, Lord 1,
Waldo 1, absent 2. The eighth ballot
was as follows : Dolph 36, Williams 28,
Hare 10, Galloway 2, Waldo 1, Fulton 3
Cogswell 1, Chamberlain 3, Lowell 1,
Lord 2. Smith of Clackamas, went from
Dolph to Lord, and Gowan from Dolph
to Lowell.. . '
The joint session meets at 7:30, and as
the legislative session closes at midnight,
there remains but 4 hours and 30 min
utes in which to elect a senator. What
the result will be is entirely, guess work,
but the indications are that the dead
lock will continue to the end of the
session. . .v "

- Hamlin,
Discussing tbe Matter.
A number of the citizens Hying on the
bluff and especially those who live with
in a few blocks of tbe peBt house, met
the committee on police and health, at
the council chambers this afternoon
They were disposed to protest against
having the pest house used by those now
quarintined in the Obarr house. Dr,
Eshelman, chairman ot the' committee
presided and professional opinions were
given by Drs. Doane, Sutherland and
Shackelford concerning . the contagious'
ness of small pox. They all agree that
distance of twenty feet is sufficient
to
render one sate from contagion, that the
disease is not disseminated through the
air, but' its germs may be carried in
clothing, etc. They were unanimous in
stating- that the use of tbe pest house.
Which' is more than 1UU feet from any
building could not in any way jeopardise
the health of anyone. It is quite prob
able they say, that none of the quaran
tined parsons have the disease.
The meeting had not adjourned at this
writing, but it is a fair presumption that
the citizens on the hill will make no
further objection to the pest house being
used" for the purposes for which it was
built.
Plenty of Sturgeon.
The middle Columbia is just now
furnishing a large amount of sturgeon
for the Eastern markets. This once
despised shark is now selling at three or
four times as much per pound as the
once royal, but now deposed, chinook
Thousands of pounds are sent to Port
land on the Regulator every day, from
down river points, and some of ' tbe
fishermen are making from $30 to' as
high as $90 per day. These rubber'
noeed sharks (the fish, not the fisher
men) are put in refrigerator cars and
shipped East, and in passing through
the bad lands of Montana, are changed
in their character, arriving in New York
as halibut, or. sea bass, just as the
market happens to demand. This ver
satuity on tbe part ol the sturgeon is
what gives it a greater value than the
red fleshed salmon, which cannot travel
under an alias.
They Won't Have It.
Dufur has the smallpox scare pretty
badly. Mr. Peabody, who was working
at tbe Obarr house the dav the case of
smallpox was discovered, went home to
Dufur, and in consequence when the
citizens there found that he had been
exposed, they quarantined him and his
family. This was a wise precautionary
measure, but there is little probability
of Mr. Peabody being infected. The
disease is contagious, it is true, before
the eruptive stage, but only so in a very
slight degree. However, a ten-days
quarantine, while' inconvenient to Mr.
Peabody, will soon pass away, and then
the community will feel safe.

Ten days loss of time on account of
Sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any
thing but pleasant for a man of a family
to contemplate, whether he is a laborer,
mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas.
O. Jones, publisher of the Leader,
Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten
days with the grip during its prevalence
a year or two ago. ' Later in the season
he had a second attack. He says : "in
the latter case I used Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy with considerable suc
cess, I think, only being in bed a little
over two days. Tbe second "attack I am -satisfied
would have been equally as bad
as tbe first but for the use of this rem
edy." It should be borne in mind that
tbe grip is much the same as a very
severe cold and requires precisely the
same treatment. When - you wish to
cure a cold quickly and effectually give
this remedy a trial. 50,cent bottles for
