morning hours, and no one has been on
the streets more than was necessary.
On the date of the last drill Company
A accepted an invitation to be present
and participate in the parade at The
Dalles on the Fourth of July. The boys
were so royally treated on a recent visit
ofthis kind to that city that they were
all glad to again accept the generosity of
their neighbor. Wasco News.
Some samples of Wasco county cher
ries will be prepared and sent to Denver
for the National Teachers' Convention,
which takes place on July 10th. This is
a good way of advertising our splendid
fruit.
It was rumored today that a sale of
wool had been made last night for
cents a pound. There is reason for the
increase in price as the wool journals in
.Boston consider tne outlook bright for a
fairly good price.
Good news comes from Mr. Pague and
let us hope that it is true that the
weathar forecast nrprliffn miich wmlnr
weather for tomorrow and Sunday.
Now is the time to show your friendship,
Mr. Pague.
The Oregonian says that yesterday
Portland was the hottest place in either
Oregon or Washington, the thermometer
in the metropolis registeiing 96 degrees
The Dalles can go three better, but it is
a barren honor, and we would gladly
surrender the prestige.
Six men of the circus advance guard
arrived in town today, and are still fur
. ther decorating the own with gaudy
advertisements. They came in a special
car. Judging by the amount of adver
tisement done, the circus must be a
large affair.
Over four hundred sacks of flour
were shipped on th9 bo'at today by the
Diamond Mills tn Portland. The flour
was consigned to Lang & Co. Tne Dalles
is finding a ready sale in the Portland
market for its milling product, and sev
eral large shipments have been made
recently.
The weather means that there will be
lots of people wanting to go to the ex
cursion Sunday. Only a limited number
of tickets can be sold and those who
wish to have a pleasant day on the river
should secure their tickets at once. In
the evening the Turners concert will be
tiven.
Mr. Hirato, the young Japanese, who
is to lecture at the Congregational
church Sunday evening, is well spoken
of by the newspapers all over the state.
He will talk nnon a subject with which
he is very conversant and all who at
tend will be greatly interested in the
subject and the speaker.
The fish still persist in keeping deep
down in the river and the wheels make
empty revolutions in the air. About
250 pounds were caught this morning in
a wheyacross the river and brought to
Herricx's cannery. Some of the China
men, who watch things pretty closely,
think the catch will be better next
month, but others are not so hopeful
and are afraid that this season will pass
and see very few fish caught. - The rise
in the river may help things.
The following real estate transfers are
on record in the county clerk s office

A hieh compliment was paid The
Dalles by the receipt of telegram from
Ttanvar Rskinsr Mr. Pinkham. of the
frnifc mmnanv. to send two boxes of
cherries, part Royal Annes and par
Black Republicans, for samples of Wasco
fruit. They will be forwarded to Bos
ton for exhibition. - Out of all the fruit
producing conntries of the West, The
Dalles and Wasco county have been se-
lected to furnish the best samples of
cherries. Our fame for fruit is rapidly
spreading.
The grasshoppers are reported to be
bothering considerably this year in dif
ferent localities. A gentleman whose
place is about ten miles from town on
the Sherman county road, says they
have done damage to his orchard, but
so far have injured the grain but little,
The pests take a special delight in at
tacking the tender shoots of fruit trees
and soon haye them stripped. The
erasshoDDer is a periodical pest and
comes and goes of its own sweet will
This section has not been bothered with
them for a long time till the presen
season.
When your heart pains you and un
usual palpitation is frequent, accoru-
Danied so res times with, shortness of
breath and low spirits you are suffering
from a disordered stato of the livrr, di
gestion is imperfect and there is wind
on the stomach. If allowed to remain
the trouble will ultimately reach the kid
neys and then become dangerdns to life,
Steps should be taken to stay its pro
gress on the appearance ot the first
symptoms. Dr. J. H.- McLean's Liver
and Kidney Balm is especially adapted
for disorders of this kind.. Price $1.00
per bottle. "For sale by Snipes-Kinersly

Frank Williams, the son of Henry
Williams of 8-Mile, who was so seriously
hurt just four weeks ago today and who
bad been gettfng better for some time,
was taken suddenly worse yesterday and
the family are more anxious than at any
time after the first few days of his ill
ness. He is extremely weak and the ex
cessively hot days have a bad effect
upon him. The attending physician
thinks he will, in all probability, re-
cover.
Mr. James Kennedy of Wamic called
at Tne Chronicle office today and
wished, on behalf of the Wamic baseball
nine to accept the challenge of the
Hood River club to play at The Dalles
on the Fourth of July. The Wamic
boys mean business, and are very de
sirous of meeting the club from the land
of the strawberries. Mr. Keunedy says
their club is in good practice, and they
are confident of giving the Hood River
nine a warm contest. The game will be
a great attraction for the. celebration,
and it is to be hoped that the affair can
be satisfactorily arranged. If the mana
ger of tbe Hood River nine wishes to
consider . the challenge accepted, Mr.
Kennedy would be glad to hear from
him through the columas of Tub
Chronicle, or otherwise.
Saturday's Dally
Eleven cars of wool went west on train
21. Several more will go today.
Another large shipment of flour was
made by the Regulator this morning.
The upper Columbia rose last night
2.5. It is stationary at Umatilla. . Re
ports from the Snake river say it is at a
stand still.
Painters are at work giving the brew
ery a new coat of point. The east end of
town is showing improvements in a
good many directions.
Several scows, which have been down
the river waiting for a chance to come
up, took advantage of the wind yester
day afternoon and sailed into the har
bor. The cord wood market is pretty
well stocked from their cargoes.
The long distance telephone company
have made a cut in rates tn Portland and
a talk can nowJtm had with the metrop
olis at 50 cents for the first minnte and
5 cents for each extra half minute. This
move will tend to increase the volume of
telephone business between The Dalles
and Portland.
The parade ot bicycles to win the prize
for the best decorated wheel will take
place in tbe evening instead of in tbe
morning, as was previously announced.
This will give the people a better chance
to view the different wheels, and scatter
the amusements over the day. Some
artistic work may be expected from tbe
owners of bicycles.
A ladies belt with a silver buckle,
engraved R. G. L., was lost along Second
street, from St. Mary's Academy to
Court street and up Court street to the
academy yard, about 10 o'clock Saturday
morning. Will the finder please leave it
with Rev. W. C. Curtis, at the Congre
gational church.
. Twelve and a quarter remains the top
price given this season for wool. James
Connelly of Cherry Creek sold his clip
at this price to Mr. Jacobs of the Oregon
City woolen mills yesterday. There had
bexn some sharp competition among
buyers for several days and Mr. Jacobs
got what wool be wanted by offering the
higher figure.
That Tbe Dalles has a large popula
was attested by the number of people
that turned out to see a runaway go up
Second street this afternoon. Reynolds
& Henzie'e express team etarted frum
the Umatilla House and beat all pre
vious records to tbe East end of town
The wagon tongue draped on the ground
and was torn to splinters. Otherwise
no particular damage was done.
The closing exercises of the school in
Diet. No. 11, Miss Alma Taylor, teacher,
took place at the schoolhouae on Mill
creek, Wednesday afternoon. Every
pupil took part in the exercises and all
acquitted themselves weH. Many
patrons were present and expressed
themselves as mnch pleased, not only
with the closing exercises, but with the
advancement of their children and the
general conduct of tbe school.
A tea train, of nineteen loads left Port
land this morning at 6 o'clock and passed
through The Dalles on the afternoon
local. The O. R. & N. are desirous of
rushing the train through as qnickly as
possible to make a good record iff the
first Asiatic connections. Tbe tea would
have etarted sooner, but for the delay in
the custom house at Portland. Each
box had to be inspected by the custom
officials and the unloading of the steamer
greatly delayed. There will be alto
gether over 100 cars loaded with tea.
Over 350 men are now employed at
the Locks. The water has long been
out of the canal and .men are at work
fixing the floor of tbe portion just beluw
tbe bulkhead. A dredger is at work at
the extreme npper end and can be moved
to any part of the canal. A bridge will
soon be Duiit across tne excavation eo
that trains can cross and then the taking
out of the bulkhead will oe begun.
Everything looks favorable to an early
completion of the undertaking.
The July Forum will contain a strik
ng article by Dr. Max Nordau, author
of "Degeneration" or "Society's Protec-
tion against Degenerates" the first
contribution that be baa made to an
American publication. Juuge George F.
Edmunds and Edward B. Whitney, As
sistant Attorney-General, will discuss
respectively the Salutary Results and
the Political Dangers of the Income-Tax
Decision. Mr. Whitney's at ticle shows
that the decision may not by any means
be the end of the matter.
One hundred and seventeen bales of
wool were turned out yesterday at the
Wasco warehouse. The baling machine
is running at full capacity and the men
will work a portion of tomorrow hoisting
wool. Teams are arriving . every day I
from distant points in the interior. The
greater part of the wool clip of this year
has probably been now 'received and a
week will see the arrivals of teams less
ened.' The amount that has passed
through The Dalles warehouses is enor
mous. The record of all previous years
will be broken.
The boat line, in conjunction with the
Southern Pacific, has made another cut
in the wool rates to Boston. Ninety-five
cents would be considered low enough,
but the tariff sheet, which will be pub
lished Monday, will give a rate on wool
from The Dalles to Boston of 90.9 cents
per Hundred pounds. i lua is slashing
rates all to pieces, but it will help the
wool growers of Eastern Oregon im
measurably. The Dalles is more than
ever a terminal point and its lame as a
great wool center is going abroad through
the land.
Mrs. F. J. Chase, whose place is on
-Mile, brought into Thb Chronicle
this morning some splendid samples of
Wasco county cherries. They are of tbe
Black Republican and Royal Anne var
ieties and are, without anv doubt, the
argest and finest we have ever seen.
Mr. and Mrs. Chase have made a beauti
ful place out of a hillside, which when
they began working grew nothing bnt
scrub oaks, and the results of their labor
are just beginning to come in. They
have over thirty acres put in fruit trees
and the vast yield goes to show that the
hill orchards hold their own and possi
bly surpass those in tbe creek bottoms
for good yields of fruit.
Bert Hawthorne has been the princi
pal object of interest in tbe justice and
police courts today. He was arrested
last night charged with, making an as
sault upon his wife. Before this Haw
thorne had been having a merry time
with his horse, and finally becoming
wearied, the horse threw him. Consta
ble Urquhart arrived upon the scene
and placed Hawthorne nnder arrest.
He was brought before Recorder Dufur
and charged with disorderly conduct.
This cost him $5. Hawthorne was then
transferred -to Justice Davis' court, and
held to answer on the charge of assault.
He plead guilty and was fined $20 by the
justice. This was not all his troubles.
for a complaint was made to put him
nder bonds that the peace might be
kept, and be is now nndergoingHrial in
the justice court.
Monday's DuHy.
The biggest day of the season at the
Wasco warehouse today. Over 400
eacks of wool taken in.
The upper Columbia rose one-half a
foot yeBterday. The Snake rose slight
ly. The river here will continue to
rise a little. '
.The following deed was filed with tbe
county, clerk this morning: Charles
Frank to Mark Fleming and Hannah
Fleming, lot No. 6, in block 5, in Thomp
son's addition to The Dalles, as shown
in the plat now on file in the county
clerk's office.
Somebody is missing a pet squirrel.
One came tbe other day to Dr. Doane's
house and has taken up his abode there.
The animal is very tame and has evi
dently well used to civilized ways. Tbe
doctor is not very anxious to find the
owner and the rquirrel is quite contented
in his new home.
. A: large number of thistles haye been
removed, but there still remain a good
many along Front street and in other
parts of .the city. The next few days
should eee them all destroyed. The old
fable of the woman who sowed the this
tie seed, bnt ,conld not gather it again
should be remembered.
Messrs. J. G and I. N. Day now have
300 to 400 men employed upon the Cas'
cades canal. Tbe canal above the lower
gate has been pumped out and the nxt
npper gate is in place and being riveted,
ine bed ol tne canal .above tnis npper
gate is being cleaned out and tbe upper
bulkhead will soon be taken ont.
Bert Hawthoroe was op before tbe
recorder Saturday and placed under $100
bonds to keep the city's peace. As it
ia haying time and he wanted to go to
bis farm, the recorder suspended judg
ment for awhile. ' Justice Davis alsd
suspended judgment in the assault and
battery case in order to give him time
to raise the money.
Comp'aint has been made to Thb
Chronicle about the road leading from
a little this side of Floyd's to The Dalles
The hill near the ol8 Covington place is
said to be in a very bad condition, full
of rocks and holes. We hope the atten
tion of the proper officers will be direct
ed to the matter, and the proper reme
dies applied.
Sheriff Driver took James Patterson
to the insane asylum today, Patterson
has been in the county jail for several
days, and was this morning examined
before the county court and Dr. Logan,
who pronounced him insane. Patter
son is the man whom it is thought had
something to do with starting a fire in
the East End of town recently. He
hails from Hood River. His form of
insanity is not violent, and a course of
proper treatment will probably .result in
bis early release.
After the usual business at the meet
ing of the Juvenile Temple last Saturday
afternoon a pleasant little " affair oc
curred. Pearl- Joles was presented with
handsome book as a reward for getting
the largest number of boys to join the
temple during the quarter ending April
30th. There had been considerable rival-
ry as to who should receive the prize,
and the fortunate recipient can feel
pleased, as the receiving of it showed
wko was possessed of influence among
the boys. The trophy was to have been
awarded some time ago, but was fori
various reasons delayed till last Satur
day.
Yesterday tbe Congregational Sunday
school had very pleasant exercises in
place of the regular lesson. It was re
view day lor tne quarter just closing,
and the lessons were illustrated by large
colored pictures, which made the sub
jects more clearly understood. The
school recited tbe titles and verses in
concert, and showed that their minds
had been busy during lesson days. The
class of little children, nnder Mrs. Con
don, added greatly to the pleasure of
the day, and showed how carefully they
had been trained. The school is pros
pering, and the roll of scholars ia unusu
ally large.
A strange guest walked into the Cos
mopolitan hotel at 12 o'elock tbe other
night, and by his appearance considera
biy startled Mr. Edgar. Never a word
did he speak, but his. eye bore a deter
mined look, so that preparations for
proper reception were immediately
made. The intruder, if so be may be
called, was fine looking badger, fully
two feet long and a heavy weight. He
is a fine specimen of that class of ani
mala and seems disposed to take things
easy and be sociable. He has quarters
in the unused dining room, and has tbe
place entirely to himself. Mr. Edgar
is going to fatten him and give him to
George Francis Train on his next visit
West.
The mayor has made two excellent ap
pointments in the names sent to tbe
council last night. Mr. G. W. Phelps,
who will oecupy the recorder's chair, is
a young man raised in The Dalles and
possessed of great popularity. He is a
graduate of the University of Michigan
law school and already has won for him
self wide repute as a young man of good
character and ability. Mr. Phelps has
held the office of deputy prosecuting at
torney and in filling that 'position has
shown good judgment, tact and legal
ability. He is one of tbe most promis
ing young men in Wasco county. Mr.
Connelly has made a fine record for him
self In fulfilling the duties of night
watchman and there is no one but is
heartily glad that the council has recog
nized his fitness and selected him again
for the position. To both these officers
Thb Chronicle extends congratulation?.
The Dalles as a Ilallroad Terminus...
Mention was made Wednesday of Mr.
H. W. Goddard, an important official
of the Southern Pacific , being in The
Dalles and that be was seeking to ad
vance the interests of that road and
secure in as large a share as possibie tbe
business of the country radiating from
The Dalles. There are some schemes of
large dimensions being thought of by
men who if they once decide upon a
course of action, pursue it to tbe end.
Itjs true they yet belong to the future,
but the fact that they are even being
considered augurs well for The Dalles,
Mr. Goddard- spent some time talking
with people, who were conversant with
the country ooth from this city, about
tbe practicability of building a railroad
from here to Prineville.
The Southern Pacific are now relaying
a large portion of their mountain divis
ions with heavier rails and there will
soon be a large number of good second
handrails for, which they see no im
mediate use There will probably be
enough to build 150 miles of road. The
rails are in fine condition, but proved
too light for the hard service to which
they were subjected on the heavy grades.
Realizing the early completion of the
locks the plan has suggested itself to
some officials of building a road from
The Dalles to Prineville and thereby
counteracting any opposition from the
Oregon Pacific extension. The Southern
has an abundance of rolling stock and
none would be needed to supply tbe
road. Tbe wool business of the section
which the road would tap would prove a
large source of revenue and a country be
developed, which now lies unimproved,
because of too great a distance from the
markets. People who are well informed
claim there is an easy, practicable route,
with few obstacles to overcome, between
here and Prineville. One plan proposed
would be to run a survey up the Col
umbia, paralleling the O. R. & N. to
5-Mile, then go up 5-Mile and pass into
15-Mile valley, through Dufur and awing
around the head of Tygh Ridge and pass
through Wamic and over the Juniper
Flat to the Deschutes river. From there
no great trouble would be found in ex
tending the road to Prineville. Oue ot
the richest portions of Wasco county is
near Wamic and in tbe flat called
Juniper. Not only is the soil fertile but
irrigating ditches are being built, whic
will allow water to be run over any por
tion. 'The farmers in that vicinity haye
a long haul to market and for that reason
little grain is shipped. But with the
building of a railroad, with the competi
tion of good wagon roads, all kinds of
farming industries would be stimulated
There may nothing come just now of
the scheme, which has just been out
lined, but this present generation will
not be much older before some steps will
be taken to unite still mora firmly the in
terests of the great country which looks
to The Dalles as its outlet. A railroad
to Prineville may not come this year or
next, but it will sometime.
