LOCAL BREVITIES.
Saturday's Daily.
A locomotive on the Sumpter Valley
railroad jumped the track near Baker
City, Tuesday. No one was hurt and
bat little damage was done to the loco
motive. At La Grande there is a demand for
laborers which it seems impossible to
supply, owing to the fact that the aver
age "laborer" does not take tindly to
the care of sugar beets.
If eootnern Gilliam county should
produce as good a crop this year as last,
and ihe indications all point to a better
one, the demand for transportation will
be so strong that the Colombia Southern
railroad will no donbt take heed and tap
the great wheat belt farther on into the
interior.
The Fourth of July committees are
doing everything in their power to make
the cerebration a success and it certain
ly will be such. The business men of
The Dalles have been very liberal' in do
sating money towards the celebration,
and there is nothing lacking at present
to assure its success in every regard.
Warm weather continues over the
Snake river country, while comparative
ly cool weather prevails over the npper
Colombia. The upper rivers have com
menced to fall. It appears that the
main body of snow has now been melted
and all danger of higher water, has
passed. It cannot be stated with abso
lute accuracy that no farther rise will
occur, but sach a conclusion is reason
able.
The catcb of fish fell off a little Thurs
day night, but the quality is exception
ally fine, says the Astoria Budget. The
steel heads are finer than they' have been
in years. One was delivered at Tres
cott's weighing 18 pounds. The so-called
branded fish are delivered to the differ
ent canneries nearly every day. Some
times they resemble letters, and again
quaint figures. They are scars from sea!
or sea lion bites.
A large, number of college students
from this city and vicinity, who have
been away attending echool during the
year, returned on the Regulator last
evening. They were Misses Anna
Thompson, Lottie Roberts, Ella Ander
son, Jennie McCallum ana Messrs. J.
M. Parry from the state normal at Mon
mouth ; Mrs. Maude Simmons and ber
brothers, Messrs. Howard and Perry
Gaunt, .and Robert Belcher from Vasbon
college; also Everett Logan from Eu
gene. A number of our property-owners
have been enterprising enough to build
new sidewalks this summer, and their
actions in this regard are certainly com
mendable. There are others, however,
who should follow tbeir good example
in this direction and put in new walks.
Some of our sidewalks are in such a
condition that it is almost dangerous to
walk over tbem, and they should be re
built by all means.
A remarkably large number of Indians
are in the city at present. This is ow
ing to the fact that many are returning
from the berry patches at Hood River,
while others are her to spend the fieh
ing season. Those who have been pick
ing berries have money and are awaiting
every opportunity to secure intoxicants
at any price, so that the authorities are
busy keeping a watch on tbem to pre
vent any depredations being committed.
Yesterday Mrs. L. Spivev, wife of R.
A. Spiyey, died at ber residence, in tbe
Bettingen block, in this city, of con
sumption. Although still in her prime,
being but 23 years old, Mrs. Spivey has
been ailiug for a considerable time.
Finally her malady turned into con
sumption, and she sank rapidly nntil
tbe end came. She leaves a husband
and one child, about 4 year old. The
funeral will take place from tbe Calvary
Baptist church Sunday at 11 o'clock.
Tbe twenty-sixth annual reunion of
the Oregon pioneers was one of the most
pleasant and successful that has ever
taken place under the auspices of the
Oregon Pioneers Association. Tbe rec
ords of these annual meetings will fur
nish much valuable data to the future
historian of tbe state ; while the meet
ings themselves are a source of genuine
enjoyment to a not inconsiderable num
ber of our people who find tbeir greatest
pleasure in living over events of tbe
past. Serving thus a two-fold object,
those under whose auspices these meet
ings are held and by whom these records
are kept, perform valuable service to
the community, both present and pros
pective. W. W. Rice, of Susanville arrived in
Long Creek Monday bringing the news
of a narrow escape from drowning, of
Robert Hamilton's two children in
Sloan & Haskell's mining flume. The
little girl, 3 years old, while playing near
the edsn of the flume was' seen by her
eldest brother to fall in. Without a mo
ment's hesitation he went to the rescue
of his tistr. Though there was" a full
head of water running in the flume with
such velocity as to earry large boolders
out of the mine, he succeeded in holding
his sister above water until help arrived
and tbe two were rescued. It is a mir
acle that both were not drowned, as Mr.
Rice says a grown person would have
great difficulty in saving himself in the
flame.
. Sunday's Daily.
Yesterday Roe Grimes shipped a car
load of fine beef cattle to the Union
meat company at Trontdule.
Yesterday some of tbe large trees in
front of Samuel Brooks' residence were
cut down on account of tbe injury they
do tbe lawn.
The office of the Wasco Warehouse
Company is being moved into the new
building and when finished it will be
equal in every way to any in the Btate.
Yesterday Tom Barges and son and
others, of the upper country, disposed of
about 1000 head of cattle to a party in
Salt Lake. Twenty-eight carloads were
shipped yesterday morning.
Professor Ryan has offered to the
young lady selling the greatest number
of tickets for the excursion a handsome
folio of euitar music. This is quite an
inducement to the young ladies, and all
are working hard for the coveted re
ward. Yesterday word was received in the
city that William. Dunn, a well-known
railroad conductor of the O. R. & N
was yery sick and that hopes, of bis re
covery were not entertained. We on
Uerstand that he is suffering from an
attack of typhoid pneumonia.
Last evening a party of young fo'ks
censisting of Misses Allie Rowland, Josie
Jenkins, Dora Neilsen, and Grace and
Edna Glenn, returned from a two weeks
outing at "Maidens' Rest," Hood River,
They report having had a delightful
time; but are, nevertheless, glad to get
back to Tbe Dalles once more.
Antelope will celebrate July 4th in a
most patriotic manner. . A free basket
dinner will be served to all guests and
a flag raising and patriotic exercises will
be held. Horse' races, bicycle and foot
races, as well as a baseball game between
tbe Antelope and Sherman county teams
will take tlace. there will also be a
grand ball in the evening.
A great deal of Indian wool has already
been disposed of at this 'place, says the
Heppner Times, bringing from 10 to 10
cents per pound. None of this wool is
shipped East, but is sold to the mills at
Oregon City and other Pacific coast es
tablishments. This class of wool gene
rally carries with it an odor that would
put a glue factory to shame.
News was brough to the city yesterday
of tbe death of Marguerite, tbe little
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. M. Glary,
of Dufur. She was their only child and
an exceptionally bright little- girl for
one of only two years. Her death is a
sad blow to her bereaved parents and
they have the sympathy of the entire
community in which tbay live. The
funeral will take place from tbe home of
the parents, on Tygh Ridge, today,
Captain J. H. Dukes, of Hood River,
lately received from his old home in Ill
inois, the sword which he carried
through tbe civil war. . It was stolen
from him some eighteen years ago, and
Lsince the present war begun and he ex
pects to command a company if more
troops are called for, he caused the lost
sword to be advertised. A few days ago
it came to him by express. It has en
graved on tbe scabbard bis name and :
the battles be passed through, and of
course he values it .very highly.
A new mining district is being devel-
opened at the head of Pierson creek, 25
miles south of Pendleton. It has been
known for several years that gold ledges
existed in that section of the country
and a little mining has been done, but
nothing very rich has ever been discov
ered. Wednesday nine locations were
recorded at tbe county recorder's office,
ot claims newly found. Tbe main ledge
is ' thought to be discovered, and the
prospects are encouraging. Several as
says are reported to be from $30 to $40
a ton.
Last evening Nigbtwatchman Wiley
was kept busy with a number of Indians
who had secured liquor from some
source. Two arrests were made of In
dians who .were intoxicated and bois
terous and all that prevented others
from ' going to tbe skookum bouse was
that they betook themselves to their
camps near the river and behaved like
gentlemen. A Klickitat Indian and his
better half drove down Second street at
a rapid .rate ana were pursued Dy tne
nightwatchman. Id spite of the fleet
ness of the Indian's horses he was over
taken at Nolan's corner and an explana
tion demanded, - He stated he was not
dronk bat feeling good and was allowed
to-proceed on' bis way after being ad
monished not to make so much noise in
the future. Mr. Wiley at present holds
an enviable record as a sprinter. . -.
Tuesday Dally.
We are sorry to learn of the illness of
Freas Sanders, who has been confined to
his room for the past three days.
And still the clerk is kept, busy issu
ing marriage licenses, Yesterday one
was granted to Alex. Stewart and Rachel
Rowland.
' . Friends of Conductor Wm.: Dunn re
port that his condition was much im
proved yesterday, and it is hoped he
will speedily recover.
Yesterday the river stood at 36.7,
having falren slightly. However, the
Snake is rising. From reports it is
judged the Columbia will remain' sta
tionary for a few days.

lows: Monday, 65; Tuesday, .71;

ping, 77.
Mrs. A. C. Stubling & Son will soon
begin on the erection of a new hot house
especially for the culture of carnations
and violets. The increasing trade makes
this necessary and Mrs. Stubling feels
that her efforts will be appreciated by
her patrons. -. . jel7

Sunday morning, Glen, the 2-year-old
son 'of Mr. and Mrs. Guy Price, who
have recently come to our city, and re
side on tbe hill opposite the home of N
Simonson, died from tbe effects of
measles. Theiuneral took place from
the Christian church yesterday after
noon.
Word received by Dr. Rinehart as to
the condition of Mr. Geo. P. Morgan is
not encouraging, no improvement hav
ing been made. As he requires her
whole attention, Mrsr Morgan has been
compelled to give up tbe school, which
she haB been teaching since removing to
the Locks.
Invitations have been received by
friends in this city to attend, tbe mar
riage of Rev. Earl Wilbur, pastor of the
Unitarian church in Portland, and Miss
Dorothea Dix Eliot, which occurs in
Portland on the 30th of tbia month
During Miss knot's visits to onr city as
a teacher in vocal culture she won the
friendship of all, and their beet wishes
will follow her in her new relation in
life.
Sunday evening tbe Episcopal church
was crowded to its fullest capacity, the
occasion being the visit of Bishop Mor
ris to our city and the confirmation of
ten persons. This parish is in a very
flourishing condition at presenf under
the pastorate of Rev. Joseph De Forest.
Recently the building has been enlarged
and a new chancel placed therein, which
adds - greatly to its appearance. The
decorations Sunday were very dainty
and artistic, while the singing was un
usually good.
Sunday morning when Judge Blake-
ley went down into the basement of bis
residence to attend to the wants of his
big dog, Gay, who bad been sick for
several days, he found him stretched
out dead. Guy, who was a St. Bernard,
was what might be termed "the biggest
dog in the puddle," not in size alone,
but popularity, for everyone knew him.
Mr. and Mrs. Blakeley will miss tbe big
pet greatly, for he seemed almost hu
man, and they have had him for tbe
past nine years. Guy has had his
"day," and is now buried near the cem
etery across Mill creek. .
Tbe quiet of Sunday was disturbed by
three fights, showing that The Dalles is
is not entirely rid of several characters
who have long been an annoyance to all
law-abiding citizens. Tbe only arrest
made was that of Frank Heater. In a
dispute between Heater and a man by
the name of Murray, tbe latter was
pretty badly done op, receiving a bad
gash over the right eye, beside other in
juries, which were" immediately at
tended to by -a- physician. Heater be
ing arrested, was placed under 5U0
bonds, remaining in jail for lack of
funds. He is to have a preliminary ex
amination before Justice Filloon 'this
morning at 9 o'clock.
Sunday evening at 10 o'clock, at the
residence of the bride's parents on Court
street, Miss Minnie Julian and Mr. Her
man Johnson'were united in marriage.
Rev1. Wilburn, of the Calvary Baptist
church, performed the ceremony in the
presence of relatives, and a tew friends.
Mr. Johnson, who is known to be a very
industrious, honest young man, is em
ployed as a fireman by tbe O. R. & N.
Co. The bride has lived in Tbe Dalles
but a few years. However, in that space
of time she has won many friends, whose
best wishes are extended to her. Mr.
and Mrs. Johnson left on the boat yes
terday morning for an extended trip to
the Sound and California cities. : ' .
Yesterday a flag staff was pat in place
on the new scnaol building. It seems
that Mr. S. B. Adams, who has taken
an unusual amount of interest in tbe
building, had promised the contractors
a box of cigars provided the staff was in
place by a certain date. Yesterday the
workmen were smoking tbe best of ci
gars when our reporter visited them. , It
has been arranged that a feature of our
Fourth of July 'celebration will be the
raising of the flag over the structure.
The parade will halt In front of the
school, and after addresses and music,
amid the enthusiasm usual on such oc
casions, "Old Glory" will be raised.
UNKNOWN MAN KILLED
REMAINS FOUND (ALONGSIDE THE
O. R. & N. TRACK.
Cut to Pieces By Train Hear Trout-
dale Station.
The mangled remains of an unknown
man, supposed to be a tramp, were found
Thursday morning at 4 :30 a quarter of a
mile west of tbe station at Troutdale,
alongside the O. R. & N. track. The
nightwatchman at tbe station was noti
fied, and he had the body conveyed to
tbe station-house. Justice S. Bullock,
acting coroner, received word of the
death and went to Troutdale yesterday
afternoon, and held an inquest over the
remains, but failed to establish tbe iden
tity of tbe man.
At the inquest nothing was found on
his person to indicate his name. He bad
in his possession a number of election
cards and also some cards with pencil
scribbling on them, all of which left no
doubt that he had been in Portland 're
cently and was making his way east
ward when killed.
One arm was tattooed with the figures
of an anchor, a rope and woman, indica
ting that be was a sailor. On one of the
cards found in his possession tbe name
of Andrew Zingell was indistinctly pen
ciled, bat whether that was his name
there was no way of telr'ng. He had
brown hair and a light moustache, and
was dressed in a pair of blue overalls
and gray shirt with green facing., He
was about 38 years old.
Tbe body was horribly mangled.' The
head lay toward the east. The left leg
was across tbe track, and severed close
to the trunk of the body. A fearful
gasb was cut in tbe forehead. Tbe left
arm was nearly 'severed above tbe wrist,
and bad dropped just alongside the
track.
Justice Bullock expressed the opinion
that he had either fallen from the brake
beam of the freight train that passed at
about midnight or had been killed in
tbe attempt to board the tram as it was
passing. The testimony of residents was
that tne place where the remains were
found is where tramps have made a
practice of getting on trains.
One singular thing was that the man
who informed the nightwatchman of tbe
finding of the body disappeared, and
with Beyeral others who were near.could
not be found when the inquest was
held.
Tbe inquest developed very little about
the man, and the verdict was that he
bad came to his death by being run over
by a train. The cards and other articles
which might in the future lead to estab
lishing his identity were preserved, and
the remains were buried at the Trout
dale cemetery .--Oregonian.

Henry F. Zeigler and Augusta Blelnt
Joined In Wedlock.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. J. C.
Meins, on Tenth street, was the scene of
a very pretty wedding Monday evening,
when at 9 o'clock their only daughter,
Augusta, was given in marriage to Mr.
Henry F. Zeigler, Rev. DeForest, of St.
Paul's Episcopal church, officiating.
About twenty immediate friends of
the family were present to witness the

very sweet as tbey stood, under an arch
of flags, from which was suspended a
white floral horseshoe. Beside the
bridal party stood little. Maud Golden as
ring-bearer. . "
At the close of the ceremony congratu
lations were showered upon . the young

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is

all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fia Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will,
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pa

which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all. other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken

OUR NEW SCHOOL BUILDING.
A Structure to Be Proud of Something:
Concerning the Flan Will Soon
' He Completed.
While theri' are many things which
The Dalles hug occasion to feel proud-of,
and justly to, her greatest pride should
be in tbe excellency of her schools, for a
city which has such tine schools certain
ly recommends itself to any who may
be in search of homes where their fam
ilies may have the benefit of a good edu
cation. A reporter in going over tbe new
building now being erected on the cor
ner of Tenth and Union streets, was
particularly pleased with every part of
tbe building. Situated on o. high level,
from every window the grandest of
views may be obtained, and each room
has an abundance of windows, so that
the light is perfect.
It is of brick and its dimensions are
69x93 feet. . The entrance to the build
will be by concrete stairs, twenty
three feet long, which lead into a large
ball 24x60 feet. This Lall is one of the
most attractive features of tbe structure,
affording ample room for drills, etc.
On the lower floor are four rooms
32x29 feet, and supplied with good-sized
dressing rooms. Tbe stairs leading to
tbe upper floor are platform stairs ten
feet long, half way tip being a landing
8x24 feet. Up stairs is a hallway 20x24
feet, and directly in front is an immense
room 31x63 feet, from which open two
large recitation rooms.one 19x31 and the
other 31x33 feet ; also two circular-shaped
cloak rooms. On either side of tbe large
windows facing the city are book .cases
or reference libraries, between which
is a comfortable seat. This will be the
main room of the high school. Indeed
this entire .floor will be used by that
portion of tbe school, while the lower
floor will be occupied by the sixth,
seventh and eighth grades.
In the southwest corner is situated the'
library and tbe principal's office com
bined, and a ball connects this with a
labratory and apparatus room 18x32
feet.
The workmen are now employed in
placing a concrete floor in the basement,
which is to be divided by a partition and
used as recreation rooms for the pupils
in stormy weather.
Two large Morgau heaters will furnish
hot air for the heating of the rooms, and
this is considered at present the best
method of beating now in use. Every
precaution has been taken to make the
ventilation faultless, which is quite nec
esary in school rooms.The entire building
will be well lit by electric lights, twelve
being placed in the high school room
alone.
The building will be completed some
time between the fifteenth of August
and the first of September, eo that it
will be ready for occupancy when tbe
fall term of school begins, which will be
on the first Monday in September.
The apportionment of teachers has not
been completed as yet, but will be pub
lished later,
Mr. C. J. Crandall, as architect, and
Messrs. Sylvester and French, as con
tractors, certainly deserve much praise
for the manner in which their work has
been done, while the people of The
Dalles are to be, congratulated upon this
substantial and worthy addition to our
already flourishing city.
CITY ELECTION.
Little Interest Displayed Result In the
Different Wards.
Monday's city election was an ex
tremely qniet one, and one could scarce
ly have told from the appearance on the
streets that anything nnusual was going
on. Less, than one-third of the vote
that should have been cast was polled,
250 being the total number. In the
second ward the interest was somewhat
more noticeable where A. S. MacAllister
and M. Randall were running for water
commissioners. The result of tbe elec
tion was as follows :
First Ward Mayor, M. T. Nolan, 34;
treasurer, C. J. Crandall, 3 ; council
