Twenty thousand young chinook sal
mon from the Clackamas hatchery were
turned loose in the Wilson river this
week. Those who had charge of the
fish made the trip to the river by wagon
from Forest Grove. A foot of snow was
encountered on the mountains, and
many fallen ' trees had to be cat oat of
the road.' The fish were in good con
dition when released. At the hatchery
they are now feeding 200,000 young
Chinook salmon on raw beef liver.
The' following tribute was paid to
Frederick Warde by the Oregoniaa of
March 31st : "Be sure the heroic-drama
is not dead, as the throngs to see "Vir
ginias" and "Ingomar" attest. The
true actor still has his part to play and
his audience to instruct, however vo
luptuously the dancer moves or gaily
the minstrel sings. We have yet to
bear Mr. Warde bewail the decline of
the drama or the errors of critics or the
decay of the stage. The chief mourners
at such occasions of gloom have gener-
i all v had part in the work ot destruction.
We have always considered Observer
Pague a thorough "ladieb' man;" but
whin of the weather he is to fend na for
Kaeter buuday? The report says 'occa
sional rain. This will certainly cause a
twinge of pain in the hearts of many of
our fair maidens, who have been count
ing so much on appearing in their new
Easter bonnets and swell gowns on this
occasion. They will no doubt look with
envy at the small boy, whose highest
aim is to have a sufficiency .of Easter
eggs, and who cares little whetberit
rains or shines, so long as this one wish
is satisfied. Of course (? our young
men are not particular whether they
can wear their epring suits on this occa
sion or not. ' - -Monday's

caught in 8-Mile was landed by Frank
Hnot yesterday. It measured 21i inches

Company's slaughter house at Trout-

An addition, 24x36 feet, will built in
a short time to the rear end of Kuck's

makes this a very necessary move.
Hoyle & Knabe bave the contract for
the addition. ' ' '
War will be declared on all the ladies

His kinglets has so decreed, as they
will, without doubt, detract from the

The horse attached to the delivery
cart of the Colombia Packing Co., started
and ran. down Washington street at a
pretty lively gate, and turning the cor
ner at Second street, jumped on the
sidewalk in front of the New York Cash
store and struck the glass case in which
Gilford -has his photographs dip'.ayed,
doing considerable damage to it. - This
caused the horse to turn and eaved the
plate glass front in" the store. The next
thing struck was a' telephone pole, and
in this encounter the horse . tore loose
from the cart and ran as far at Mcln
erny's store where be was stopped. The
cart was badly damaged but fortunately
no one was hart.
The agpearance of the distinguished
actor, Mr. Frederick Warde, at the Vpgt
Thursday night promises to be in the
tiature of an event, and It will enable
bis many friends and admirers to eee
him in a character that bas made him
famous "Virginias," in Knowles' grand
old play of that name. It may be fairly
said that the part has descended to him
by right of succession from a line of
actors that have passed away, and Mr,
Ward biings to the performance of it a
perfect knowledge of the traditions of
bis predecessors in -the role, combined
with the charm of his own personality
and more modern views of dramatic art,
which give a freshness and originality
to the- impersonation. And to these
qualities years of experience and con
scientious study have ben added, so
that the result is a striking figure in the
gallery 61 men that have made them
selves famous on the Americau stage.

The boys and girls are all going to the
Methodist church tomorrow at 4 p. in.
to eee Mr. Miller tie up a boy.

vears time. Uity or country property

desirable bargains in both city and conn-
try property always on tap. No trouble
to show goods. See Butts.
The general estimate of the president's
message on the Cuban matter is thaVit
is a mere waste of words and unsatis
factory in the extreme. The house com
mittee was in cession this morning but'
no conclusion was reached.
Last evening a full-dress rehearsal of
"King Hallabahoola II." was held at
the Vogt, and from beginning to end it
was immense. We can guarantee one
thing, and that is that those who miss
seeing it tonight will be sorry.
Yesterday the Wasco Warehouse Co.
at Arlington received forty sacks of wool
which was the first of the season to
come into that place. Persons from the
interior inform us that quite an amount
of wool is already on the way to this
city, and according to this the wool crop
will soon begin to roll in.
Tickets were piaced on sale this morn
ing for Frederick Warde, who will place
"Virginius" on the boards at the Vogt
Thursday, the 14th inst. It is but once
in. years that such a high class ehowas
this consents to play in our city, and we
sincerely hope that they will receive the
liberal patronage of our theater-goers. -Tomorrow
the Sarab Dixon will arrive
in this city to tak"e the place of the Reg
ulator, which will be laid up for repairs.
The Dixon will be in charge of Captain
Coe, and old river man and careful ship
master. Captain McNulty will take
the place of mate, as Mr. Alden intends
leaving for his mine at Spanish Gulch,
where he expects to spend the summer
months.
A row occurred in Maetz & Pundt's
saloon this afternoon, and after it was
brought to an end the two participants
looked as though they had been struck
by a cyclone. One of them had the
bones of his hands badly broken and the
other was so badly cut about the face
that a physician had to be called to sew
up the gashes. 'Both participants were
pretty badly bruised up, and the pugil
istic honors seem to be about equal.
Park McDonald had on exhibition in
Corvallis an egg freak, which, were it
hatched, might be the Siamese twins of
the chicken family. This curio consist
ed of two soft-shell eggs, connected by a
tubular membrane, nearly an inch in
length, ami the size of a lead pencil in
diameter. One egg consisted entirely of
yilk, while the other was composed
wholly of white. . Professor Shaw, of the
agricultural college, now has it under
consideration.
"Virginius" was originally produced
at Convent Garden theater, London, in
May, 1820. The first representative of
the character of "Virginius" was the
great English tragedian, W. G. Mac
ready, to whom the author acknowl
edged his indebtedness for his assistance
in the production of the play. The men
who have made Virginius famous in this
country were Thomas Abthorpe Cooper,
originally, and in the order named, Ed
win Forrest, John McCullough and
Frederick Warde.
The grand street parade of King Hal
labahoola II. and his troop was a flatter
ing success as well as every other feature
of the show. The necessary costumes
for the entire troop could not be secured,
and It was necessary for ten or more of
the members to be left out of the pa
rade. In spite of this the line extended
almost two blocks. The procession was
led by The Dalles band and the mem
bers of the troop followed in a column of
threes, while a bevy of small boys, Louie
Comini'e goat and Seufert's pug dog
brought up ' the rear of the grandest
turnout of the season."
Yesterday Captain Johnson, of the
steamer Dalles City, of the D. P. & A.
N. line, resigned in order to accept a
like position on the Stikeen river. He
will leave for Alaska in . a short time
and take a full steamboat crew with him
with the exception of a purser, who
must oe a British subject in order to fill
such a position on those waters. Capt.
John p. ton has been in the emplo'y of the
D. P. & A. N. Co. for more 'than 'four
years and ranked among the most skill
ful and competent pilots on the river.
Not only ".are the owners sorry to lose
him, but also the traveling public, with
whom he was aiways a great favorite on
account of his genial, accommodating
ways. '.
The Pendleton Tribune last Saturday
issued an excellent special edition of
twenty-eigbt pages, illustrated, showing
the resources of Pendleton and Umatilla
county. Not only do figures show how
great are the products of the wonder
fully fertile fields of Umatilla, but the
men and the methods that bave made
such figures possible are pictured and
described. Nor are the picturesque fea
tures overlooked, as, among other things
there is an interesting account of the
Umatilla'reseryation and its inhabitants,
with illustrations of the "big Injuns" of
the reservation.
SUDDEN DEATH IN A CAFE.
Lester F.
Sayles Suspected, of Having;
Suicided.
Death suddenly overtook Lester P.
Sayles in Portland at 9 o'clock Thursday
evening. He' and a friend, . George
Housman, went to the Vienna cafe, on
Morrison street. While seated at a table
Sayles dropped a white powder into a
glass of water, which he drank.
Immediately thereafter the young
man gasped and fell forward, uncon
scious. Dr. Rand arrived at the cafe
a few moments later, and cau'sed Sayles
to be taken to St. Vincent's hospital,
where he expired about an hour after
ward.
During the early part ot the evening
the young man complained of feeling
ill.
Sayles was 22 years of age. His father
was the Rev. Thomas Sayles, who died
about twelve years ago. He lived with
his widowed mother, Mrs. Jennie Sayles,
and a sister, at 168 East .Seventh street.
He had been employed by the Wiley
B. Allen Uompanv, music dealers, in
Portland. " '
Dr. Rand held an autopsy on the re
mains this morning, and found that the
powder taken into Savles' stomach was
a poison, and indications pointed very
strong! v to cyanid of potassium. To
verify his suspicion as to what the poi
son was, he is having a chemical analy
sis made.
This fact lends color to the theory that
he took the drug with suicidal intent
What cause he could have had for taking
his own life, however, will probably ai
ways remain a secret.
He g3ve no intimation ot such an in
tention when he sat down to eat with
his friend. In fact he was as calm and
deliberato as if he were only taking a
drink of water.
Young Sayles was for several months
in the employ of the Jacobsen Book and
Music Company, and while here he
made many friends 'who were' shocked
at his untimely end.
BACK FROM SKAGUAY.
Mrs.
Stone Returns and Tells of Her
Interesting Visit There.
Mrs. Charles btone has arrived in
this city from Skaguay, Alaska, where
she has been with Mr. Stone for over
six weeks. After leaving Portland for
that place Mrs. Stone had an eventful
trip. - Just after passing ever the bar at
the mouth of the Columbia the coal
bunkers caught fire, -which forced them
to put back, and afterwards they were
beached on the. Juntau Flats for two
days and a half. She has photographs
showing the Oregon standing high and
dry on the beach, and among the others
on deck at the time they were taken we
notice the familiar form of our old towns
man, Charles Stone. ,
Mr. and Mrs. Stone remained in Skag
uay about six weeks, and as Mr. Stone
desired to go cn.to Dawson, his wife and
little Hazel returned to this city. She
informs us that during the whole time
they were in Skaguay, outside of the
first few days, the weather was delight
ful, in comparison with what people
make it out to be, and during the entire
time she was there she wore nothing in
the way of wraps outside of a heavy
cape, euch as the ladies wear here in
the winter.
Fred Skibbee, formerly of this place,
is doing well in the restaurant an-d
saloon business. A. - B. Estebennet is
running a laundry and is prospering.
Leslie Butler is doing a good wholesale
grocery business, while George Krause
is employed by an outfitting establish
ment and receives a good s.ilary. We
are pleased to note that so many of pur
Dalles people are prospering in Alaska.
Mrs. Stone eays the reports concern
ing so much sickness in Skaguay are
started by the people of Dyea, 'Who are
trying to induce people to go to the lat
ter place. Some sickness prevails, but l
nothing in comparison to what tbe re
ports make out.
Many new buildings are being con
structed in Skaguay, and a system of
water works is being put in from a lake
on the mountain above the town. The
splendid water supply that they will
then have, will add much to the sanitary
conditions of the city. ...'-.'
Mrs. Stone left Skaguay on the day
that the terrible avalanche occurred,
and know nothing about it until they
arrived in Portland. '

J THE REHEARSAL LAST EVENING
The Show Will Certainly Be at Flatter
ins; Success.
(Saturday's Daily.
The reporter had the pleasure nf. at
tending another rehearsal of "King
Hallabahoola II" last evening, and was
indeed surprised at the perfect manner
in which each and every feature passed
ofl. One might attend 'every rehearsal
and never grow weary of the variety of
wit and fun of the performers. Among
the many characters to which he will be
attracted, after he has paid his respects
to the king, he will not fail to notice
"Archibald Percival Algernon Hotstnff,"
"Count Calf Liver Rusty Canner,"
"Hans B.ummelspeiler," "Dennis Kear
ney," one of the Irish 400.
The turns are strictly up to date, and
ar.e, on the whole, something that a
Dalles aniitrice will see for the first
time. Their j ikes are also new and
well chosen and their singing in solos,
qnartetts and chorus is good enough to
please anyone, while the orchestra ac
companiments add .much to the per
formance. .
It is the intention of the boys to give
the audience a thorough surprise, and
for that reason we cannot speak further
concerning their program.
Easter at the Congregational Church.
The services at the Congregational
church Sunday morning were largely
attended, and the helfmiful decorations
reminded all who entered the building
that it was Easier Day, for they were
unusually artistic and delicate, consist
ing of potted plants and cut flowers,
with, Oregon - grape leaves festooned
gracefully around, the arches. The an
thems were in keeping with the day.
and were song in the excellent
manner in which the choir of this
church always acquits itself. The ser
mon by the pastor, W. C. Curtis, was
one of bis ablest efforts, and as he spoke
of the hereafter in connection with the
past and the life which we are to live be
fore the great hereafter, all seemed
deeply impressed'-with not onlv the
truth if the statement's, hut the elo
quent and feeling mat'a?r in which they
were expressed.
At the close of the sermon baptism
was administered to four persons, two
of whom were received into member
ship in the church, after which the
Lord's Supper was commemorated.
Although it was the joyous Easter day
a feeling of sadness seemed to pervade
the congregation, though no allusion
was made to tiie fact that it was the last
Suuday on which he, who has been
their pastor for the past ten years,
would occupy the pulpit as sicb. The
number of those in attendance yesterday
who are cot members of eny congrega
tion showed plainly the esteem. in which
Mr. Curtis is held, not only by those of
his flock, but by those who feel the
power of his influence as a friend and a
citizen whom we can illy afford to lose.
Indeed, such men are a power in a com
munity as well as in the church. How
ever, it is pleasant to know -that the
fruit of his labors will be ours when he
has left us.
Great Day at the Methodist Church.
Monday's Daily.
Those who heard Evangelist Miller at
the Methodist church yesterday learned
that he was sound on the Bible.
There were no decorations, except a
few up-to-date ladies with their new
bats; but the revival interest .was so
great that even these fine flowers at
tracted no special attention.
In the morning a large number joined
the church, and were given a warm re
ception, the officials leading the way fol
lowed by the entire congregation shak
ing hands. The evangelist said : "Some
people wonder if there is recognition in
heaven. I believe in having it begin en
earth." (Amen!) ' Tears of gratitude
coursed down many faces as these new
converts were welcomed. It was a
warm time.
Notwithstanding the special Easter
attractions, the church was crowded at
night. Mr.- Miller sang, by request,
The Old Fountain." After prayer by
the pastor be sang "The Judgment."
This made a solemn impression. Fol
lowing this be said: "I owe it to you
and my God, whom I profess to serve,
that I preach a whole gospel. The
world raises the question 'la there a
hell?' I will now give you the highest
authority answering this question :
'The wicked shall be turned into hell
and all the nations that forget God.'
Ps. ix:17. 'Her house is the way to
bell, going down to the chambers of
death.' .'And whosoever was not
found written in the hook of life was
east into the lake of fire.
Thus be gave
scripture after scripture, while the great
audience listened with almost breathless
attention. -.
At th invitation many went to the
altar. The few who left when tbe after
meeting began looked solemn' as tbe
grave. -'"',
Mr. Miller announced his subjects for
the week as follows : Tonight -'The
Delayed Execution of the Death Sen
tence." Tuesday "The Red Light."
Wednesday A trial. Nine witnesses
will testify ; a jury of twelve men will
render tbeir' verdict. Thursday Can I
dance, play cards, etc., and be a church
member? Friday Can I have, a good
time and be a Christain. ''
Afternocn meetings will be held at
2:30, at which Mr. Miller will sing and
speak. ' 'B.
AT THE METHODIST CHURCH.
An Interesting; sad Knthuslastte
Ins; Last Night.
The Methodist church is indeed in tha
midst, of an old-fashioned revival. The
seats were all filled last night. The
young men Serving as ushers are doing;
that work well, and are kept busy.
Many new faces, are nightly seen in tha
audience,, showing the influence of tha
meeting is constantly spreading.
Mr. Miller sang "Tbe Wages of Sim
Is Death, All That Is Promised Too.
Now." Pastor Rev. J. H. Wood led in
prayer. Then said the leader: "This
is Monday; wash day in.everv well
regulated home. But have you bad
victory? Report; please." The answers
came quickly, two and three on their
feet at once. One young man said:
"Thank God ! I have overcome to
bacco. My friend asked me to take
some today,' and I said 'No!' Here-
plied: 'What! is the world coming to
an end?' I told him it had with me."
And thus in turn fully thirty epoke,
and it was hard to close others off.
The text was from Eccl. viii :11, "Be
cause sentence against an evil work ia
not executed speedily, therefore the
heart of the sons of men is fully set ia
him to do evil." The speaker eaid:
"It is evident that our God is not ia
favor of lynch law. The declaration is
'The soul that sinneth it shall die.
'Whatsoever a man eoweth, that shall
be also reap.' Simply because there
seems to be a delay in tbe execution of
the sentence, man becomes more and
more reckless and Godless. You speak
to that young man sowing wild oats,
and ask him what will tbe end be, and
he will laugh you to scorn. He may
say 'Where are the sipns of the execu
tion. So Eaid the old world and the
God-defying cities of the plains; but
what became of them? The explana
tion to the seeming delay is found in II
Peter iii:4, 'He is long-suffering tons
ward, not willing that any should per- '
ieh.' But the day of the Lotd will
come. It may be soon with yon and me.
Are we ready for the event?"
A number responded to the invitation,
and an eainest altar service followed.
Tonight Mr. Miller's theme will be '
"The Red Light," and he will eing
"The Tempest." Tomorrow night &
trial service. . The jury haa been select
ed, and nine witnesses will testify.

the state Rebekah's Assembly, assisted
