The Regulator brought up 145 calves
as a part of her cargo last night. They

each one of them began to call for his
ina.
Mr. C. L. Gilbert of Hood River, has
been appointed second deputy clerk. It
is necessary to have three persons in the
clerk's office a larger portion of the time
and especially during the sessions of the
circuit court. Mr. Gilbert writes a hand
like copper plate, is a clever, accommo
dating and genial gentleman, thoroughly
competent,, and his appointment will
prove gratifying to his innumerable
friends.
The wind was on another frolic this
afternoon, and tbe amount of duBt it
Btirrd up and whirled about was some
thing astonishing. The streets are ap
parently clean and free from dust, but
the wind managed to find an abundance
of it somewhere, and distribued it with
a generous and impartial hand ; in fact
both hands. As the weather resembles
a woman, in that an extra exhibition of
temper generally winds up in tears, and
as this was no exception, we cheerfully
put up with the wind.

superintended the construction of Fort
Dalles. His quarters here when first
built was the finest building in the ter

old building was burned years ago, and
now inside of its rains the forest trees
are growing, tie spent the government
money with a lavish hand in building
the forts here, but when the rebellion
broke out, he resigned and went South
to join the rebel army.

The Oreat Northern Coming.
Yesterday! -Oregonian has the follow
ing concerning a proposed change in.
railroad matters that would result in-
giving The Dalles direct communication
with the East over the Great Northern :
"The Great Northern proposes patting
into effect about May 1st a new time
card, by which the time between Port
land and Si. Panl will be shortened
twelve hours. This will be agreeable
news for the traveling public, but an
other change is contemplated which will
be of far greater benefit to Portland.
Since tba connection was made between
the O. R. & N. and the Great Northern,
the. latter 's road business out of Port
land has . rapidly increased. It is now
proposed to run a complete through
train between St. Paul and this city, in
stead of between St. Paul and Seattle.
The line betyeen Spokane and Seattle
will thus become a branch line, as the
business over it does not warrant the
running of a full train. The train which
will then roll into Portland will consist
of buffet library cars, first and second-'
class sleepers, diners and express and
baggage care, and drawn by Great
Northern engines. It is not yet known
when this change will be made, but it

will probably come with the new time
schedule. The Great Northern is going
to make a strong bid for business from
the coast the coming summer, and the
officials realize that they can do far more
with the terminus of the road at Port-
laud than they can do at Seattle or any
Puget sound point..
Mr. Honihtn'i Statement.
Mr. Monahan, the smallpox victim
feels aggrieved at the stories that have
been circulated concerning him and as
to the manner in which he contracted
the disease and brought it here. Mr
Monahan says that he left Hot Springs
Arkansas, on the 14th day of February
went to Kansas City, stopped there
day, and then, came to The Dalles. He
states emphatically that when he left
Hot Springs he did not know the small
pox bad broken out there: that if lt
existed the health authorities had kept
the matter concealed, and the public
did not know it. That he does not
know where he was exposed to tbe dis'
ease, or when, bat presumes it was at
some of the public resorts at Hot
Springs, since it is now known slnallpox
existed there. That when he arrived
here he was sick, but had no suspicion
that he had the smallpox, and in fact
did not believe it even when told by Dr.
Hollister, until the eruption commenced
He further offers to pay for a telegram
to the health officers, mayor, or any
other person in Hot Springs, to verify
his statement that the disease was not
nown to exist when be left.
He wants further to say that he did
not contract the disease intentionally
for tue purpose of bringing it here ; that
he did not want it, and did not enjoy it

Klngsley Notes.
The Astorian contains the following
two railroad items : Mr. A. B. Ham
mond and Mr. J. C. Stanton left for
Portland laBt night on the Bailey Gatzert
They expect to return to .Astoria within
week's time. While away Mr.' Ham'
mond will visit Corvallis and other
points on the Oregon Pacific. He ex
pects to have a corps of engineers in the
field within the next ten days, survey-
ug the line from this city to Goble
After making a trip to San Francisco,
which he will do when leaving here next
week. Mr. Hammond expects to return
Astoria and remain for a month or so
until building operations get under full
way.
Dr. Kinney says that it is the inten
tion of Mr. 'Hammond to extend tbe
Seashore road to tbe mouth of the Ne'
halem. This will be done as soon as the
Astoria-Globe road is finished. The
survey, however will be made this sum
uier, and everything such as ' right of
way, maps, etc., got ready for an early
beginning.
