program and refreshments. -All mem
bers are reqneeted to be present.
Mr. John . ObriBt and Mies 6. Wolfe,
both of Wasco county, were nnited in
marriage on the loth inst., by Rev.
B. Gorham', at his residence in this city.
. The northbound passenger train ran
into an open switch at Rocktord, in Spo
kane county, and struck a special freight
standing on the switch. Several were
injured, bnt none seriously.
Theodore Durrant was ordered by
Judge Bahrs, on motion of District At
torney Barnes, to appear this morning
and receive his sentence of death for the
murder of Minnie Williams. -
Frank Gaby, charged with the mur
der of James Cox, was found ' guilty of
manslaughter Sunday in Everett. The
jury was out 24 hours. It recommended
Gaby to the clemency of the court.
. The timbers for the new bridge are
being unloaded today, and as the piling
on whioh they are to rest is being pat
in shape as rapidly as possible, it will
be but a matter of a short time until
the workmen will be ready to raise the
massive bents into place. '
William Teller, who is supposed to
bave been drowned on the lower river,
and whose ekiff was picked ' up near
, Knappton, was formerly in the employ :
of Seufert Brothers, at their fishery,
near this city. He was a foreman at
the cannery for a tinfe, and was well
liked by all who knew him..
On Christmas day, the Portland and
Multnomah athletic clubs' football
teams will again meet on the gridiron.
The art'cles of agreement, which bave
been the bona of contention for two
weeks, were finally arranged to the sat
isfaction of both parties, and Monday
night they were signed, so that the game
. is now a certainty.
At the' meeting of the fire department
last night, F. S. Gunning was appointed
chief of the department in ' this city.
Mr. Gunning was appointed to fill the
vacancy made by George Gibbons, who
Las moved oat of town. There is no
doubt that good judgment .was shown
in the selecting of Mr. Gunning, and
that be will do all In his power for the
advancement of our volunteer fire de
partment. ' '
The property-owners on the north
side of Second street, between Washing
ton and Federal, are having the mud
ad it'll
.. i - . .
gathered up and" . hauled away, an
makes a wonderful difference in the ap
pearance of theEtreet. It is strange
that some of the other property-owners
would not profit by their good example
and have their, ehare of the streets
cleared in a like manner.and in this way
improve the appearance of our city in
the eyes of outsiders. .
At the annual election of the Eastern
Star held last night, the. following of
ficers were elected: Worthy matron,
Mrs. Alice Crossen; patron. Dr. O. D.
Doane; associate matron, Mrs. Dr. San
ders; conductress, Mrs. A. Burget; as
sociate conductress, Miss Lena Phirman ;
secretary Miss Lena Snell; treasurer,
Mrs. Esther Harris. The other officers
will be chosen by those already elected
but as yet they have not bad time to
make any appointments.
This morning the reporter noticed,
while the workmen were blastinin the
Mill creek basin, that ana mber of small
stones and some large ones, weighing
probably two pounds, were thrown as
far as Second street, near Senator Hil
ton's residence, one large stone strik
ing on the sidewalk immediately in
front of the gate. This is proof of the
fact that more care should be taken by
the men who have charge of this work,
and if they are not careful someone will
be injured by these flying missiles'.
As yet no arrests have been made of
the perpetrators of the recent robberies
and wi tbout any clue it is next to ifa
ooseible for oar officers to capture tbe
guilty parties. The probabilities are
that they left' town. Although Mr.
Wiley is a vigilant and faifhlul officer,
at the same time one man cannot watch
this city as it should be ' watched daring
he night, and for this reason an. assist
ant should be appointed by all means.
Even if it does involve more expense
for the city this money will be well
spent, and the taxpayers will feel satis
fied when they see that their property
is well protected. " ; ,
Our football players came together
Sunday and played a lively practice
game, making an excellent snowing.
We understand that the Dafarites who
failed to best us in baseball last summer,
in spite of all their brawn and muscle,
are going to make an attempt to defeat
oar boys on the gridiron, in the near
future. They may be able to do so, bat
it would not be well for them to be too-
positive, since 'our -lads are seldom be
hind in such sports. Next Sunday an
other practice game will be played, and
anyone who is curious to see it will fee
admitted to the fair grounds free.
Thursday's Daily.
A vagrant was tbe only victim before
Recorder Sinnott this morning..'. He was
fined $10, and will - be allowed to oxer-
cise hia muscles Jn behalf of the city
while b'a is working oat his fine, v
Dr. Eshelman was called yesterJar to
attend the wife of Mr. James .Johnston
of Deechutes, and found . ber a very
sick woman. He did all that medicai
skill could do for her and at present she
is in a fair way towards recovery.
Last evening the Royal Acb, Masons
held a meeting for the election, of officers
for the ensuing year, in the Masonic
ball, with the folld wing results: Chas,
Hilton, H, P.'; F. Gibbins, king; "Dr.
Siddall, scribe ;. Geo: A. Liebe, Treas. ;
;.rjr. Logan, Secy.; Geo. C. Blakeley,' C.
of H. ; A. Larsen, P: S. ; John M. Mar
den, R. A. C. ; ; Ed O. Phirman, G. M.
3d V.; W. E, Garretson, G. M. 2d V.;
E. Shanno, G. M. 1st V.; W. S. Myers,
sentinel. The installation of . officers
will take place the first Wednesday in
January, and will be for members of tbe
chapter only. '."
" Today John Gillvary of Antelpe was
brought to this citv for medical treat
ment, Five days azo'a horse fell with
him and he received several bruises and
had his chin cut open.. ' Dr. Hollister
attended to his injuries and he is resting
easy at preeent. '".'.'
In an interview with Captain L. P.
Hosford, of the Hattie Belle, which be-
ongs to the W hite Star line and makes
daily trips on the lower river "at present,
he said:' "We are. going to put the
Hattie Belle on the upper river to ran
between the' Cascades and The Dalles,
and 'the lone w:'l ran on the lower
river, connecting with it at ' the . locks
daily. This will give this line a daily
boat. '
This morning Mr. Gardner, assisted
by bherifi Driver. . took charge ol tbe
I two Hawthorne children, Etta and Sala,
and will take them to tbe Boys and
Girls Aid Society tomorrow. The hear
ing of the case will be before Judge
Bradsbaw on the 29th inst, and there is
no doubt that abundant evidence will
b brought forward to prove that tbe
children should be removed from the
mothers charge. Their father is in the
insane assylum, and one brother is now
serving a terra in 'the - penitertiary for
the murder an Indian policeman on the
Warm Springs reservation. Tbey were
living in a deplorable condition, and it
is certainly a charitable act to remove
tbe poor unfortunates to a more suitabl e
place for human beings.
. O. D. Emory, it wa,s learned Monday
morning, was arrested in Portland by
Detective Kerrigan for the larceny of
four typewriters (machines') from the
offices of Attorney Richard Williams, E.
Mendenhall, R. R.. Giltner and J. T.
Milner. As he was caught with one of the
machines in his possession, tbe police
astutely concluded that be must have
stolen it, a suspicion which was strength
ened by this - subsequent -confession.
Emory has been employing his time
while in Portland committing several
burglaries. We wonder if be is not tbe
same fellow ' who -stole Mr. Wueon s
typewriter in this city. -.It seems very
! likely that be is, as he seems to 'make
that line of goods a specialty. . ' . : ' -The
John Day river, .'ast week, came
very near adding three more to its an
nual roll of victims. Alonzo and James,
McWillis, assisted by -T. N." Fields, "were
crossing their sheep at the private ferry
on their ranch, when the cable broke
and the ferryboat was capsized,' damp
ing its lad of men and sheep into the
middle of the river. Old Mr. Fields,
although 76 years of age, was the first
to reach land, and James soon, followed
him there,' almost exhausted. v Mean
while, Alonzo, who baa caught the bro
ken cabie and was. trying to stay with
the boat, in some manner ' became en
tangled with the rope in - the midst of
the bunch of sheep, .which forced bim
under the water several times, before be
could extricate himself from the rope.
Once free, by almost superhuman efforts
he managed to surprise his watching
relativer by., emerging from 'the angry
waters a living man.

The Van Pelt gang, held in Curry
county for murder, were denied a writ
.of habeas corpus by Judge Riley last
week. ' ; '' .'' . . .

Reports from DQfur state that Mon
day and Tuesday were' model days, be
ing warm, dry and beautiful. This bad
the good result of drying up tbe roads to
a great ' extent, so that travel . is much
easier over them now than a week ago.
A crew of men are at work on Second

' Everything ' is ; exceptionally quiet
around tbe stockyards the last few days.
No shipping of any importance Is being
done, and from indications tbe stock
shipments from Tbe Dalles for this year
are about ended. Since early last spring,
up to a short time ago, scarcely a day
passed that more or 'less stock was not.
shipped from this place, and' the ques
tion in the minds of many was where do
tbey all come from. ,
Snow began to fall about 6 o'clock
last evening, , and continued .falling
lightly during tbe greater part of the
night, - so . that by morning our
city, and more especially the surround
ing country, had a decidedly wintry ap
pearance. About a half inch of snow
remained on the ground during the day,
and at the time of going to press it was
snowing. At Dafur-and other places of
higher altitude there is over an inch of
snow. .'',''

After meals you should have simply a
feeling of comfort and satisfaction. You
shonld not feel any special indications
that digestion is going cn. If you do,
you have indigestion, which means not
digeBtioh. ' This may bo the beginning of ;
sa many dangerous diseases, that it is
baet to take it in hand at once and treat ;
it with Shaker Digestive Cordial. For
you know that indication .makes poison,
which causes pain and sickness. -And
that Shaker Digestive - Cordial helps di- ?
gestfon and cures indigestion. Shaker
Digestive Cordial does this by providing
the digestive materials in which the
Sick stomach is wanting. It also tones .
up and strengthens the digestive organs .
and makes, them perfectly Wealthy.
