Yesterday Sheriff Kelly took his oath
of office and hi position in the sheriff's
office. He has selected for his depoty
F. C. Sexton, a man well qualified for
the position, and by this choice be has
shown as good judgment as he has capa
bility in discharging the duties of the

' One of the pleasant features of the
Fourth of July celebration which we
omitted mentioning yesterday was the
excursion on the Sarah Dixon in the
evening. Two hundred pleasure seek
ers went down the river and their trip
was not in vain, -for everyone was in an
enjoyable frame of mind, and as every
thing passed off pleasantly the excur
sionists were more than pleased with
their trip.
The Fourth was celebrated in Hood
River with a will aa a result of the bul
letin received announcing Sampson's
victory. The 6. A. R. fired a salute.
The drill of a company of voung women
was a feature ofthe day. ' Arrangements
are being made to make the organisation
a permanent one. . . The Emergency
Corps' entertainment at night was well
attended, the leading feature being the
extra drill of sixteen young, women of
the company of forty.
. Monday afternoon Charles Gray,, of
Cove, shot three times at Albert Ohms,
of Island City. One bullet took effect
in Ohm's thigh, another struck his sad
dle and the third killed his horse. Both
are young men. The trouble arose over
money owed Ohms by Gray. They had
trouble over the account this morning,
but separated, meeting again later.
Both men were on horseback and after
the shooting Gray left Arlington hur
riedly firing his pistol several . times.
Officers are pursuiug him.
North Yakima held the biggest cele
bration in years, with no casualties to
mar the enjoyment. Everybody was
patriotic in the morning, but when
news came of Sampson's victory at San
tiago, the town went wild. A delegation
of citizens stopped the procession and
read Sampson's telegram, and rousing
cheers " followed. The same citizens
went to the ball gronnd, called time,
read the message and nearly broke up
the game. The procession was one of
the largest ever seen in the city, and
was witnessed by a large crowd. The
ball game nearly ended when the 'first
man went to the bat, the pitcher strik
ing Batter Farrah behind the ear with
the third ball pitched, rendering him
unconscious for several hours, A report
came from Zillah to the effect that one
Indian killed another during the cele
bration there. Both were drunk.
The city election which was held last
night passed off a quickly and with as
little trouble as any we have ever had,
and throughout was apparently satisfac
tory. Chas. Lauer, the present incum
bent of the marshalship, has proven a
faithful man In that position, which ac
counts for his retention. Julius Wiley,
the nightwatchman tar the past year,
has conducted himself in such a straight
forward manner that he would have
been unanimously returned should he
have allowed his ncine to come before
the council. His successor we trust will
fill the position credably. The city re
corder, Roger B. Sinnott, also refused to
accept the office the second time, since
by so dokg he would be forced to neg
lect his law practice. . Mr. Sinnott has
filled the position of recorder in a' most
creditable manner, and. if he wished,
would have been elected unanimously.
Mr. Gates is a promising young attor
ney and fully capable of filling the po
sition. Thursday's Dally.
Yesterday Thomas Smith, wool buyer
for Moses & Co., purchased a large clip
of wool at the Wasco Warehouse. The
price paid was 13)6 "cents.
" The old Times-Mountaineer building
is being moved at last.' Yesterday the
contractors got it as far as the Snipes
Kinersly drug store, and at this rate
it will likely be at its destination on the
vacant lot across the street from Mays
& Crowe's. . r
Reports from all parts ot Easters Ore
gon indicate that a good fruit crop will
will be bad this season. " Early peaches
in Wasco, Sherman and Moro counties
are ripening.' Cherries continue to be
plentiful, while strawberries are about
out of the market for this season.
N. J. Sinnott returned yesterday
morning from Antelope, where he de
livered the address on Independence
day. Mr. Sinnott states the celebration
at Antelope was a grand success and
that the hospitality of the people re
siding there could not be surpassed.
Albert T. Baldwin has purchased the
insurance business of J. Hartnett, and
will in the future will be the authorized
agent of the St. Paul Fire and Marine
Insurance Co. Mr. Baldwin is an en
terprising young man and will certainly
secure a liberal share of the public pa
tronage. Yesterday The Chronicle office was
presented with a calendar from the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway.
It is one of the most artistic we have
ever Been, being printed in various
colors. Each page contains an illustra
tion appropriate for the month, and on
the whole it is a very neat souvenir.
The temperature has fallen over the
Columbia river basin. This decrease in
temperature is favorable for a more
rapid fallyof the water in the rivers. The
fall will be from 6.3 to 0.5 of a foot a
day at Umatilla and Portland and about
.07 of a foot at The Dalles. Within four
days the rivers will be below the danger
line.
Chas. Remi, a sheep herder working
in Klickitat county about fifty miles
from here, was accidentally shot on the
Fourth of July by a forty-four caliber
revolver falling from his pocket and
striking on a rock. The ball entered
near the elbow and ranged up coming
out near, the shoulder. Remi was
brought to The Dalles yesterday and his
wound dressed by Dr. Holliater. The
wound, though painful, will be all right
in a short time prbvidiug blood poison
ing does not set in. .- ' .
In a letter received from I. N. Sargent
dated Omaba, Neb., July 2d, ne says "we
have been for two weeks attending the
exposition and have taken in, in a gen
eral way, the principal bnlldmps and
exhibits and must say-it is much be
yond our expectations. Oregon is well
represented in timber, fruits and miner
als, and the gentlemanly superintendent
Mr. DoBch has a good word for all. We
start today for Chicago and some other
points east before returning to Oregon."
Private Elias Hutchinson, of company
M, Second Oregon - volunteers, died of
peritonitis June 20, en route to the Phil
ippines, and was buried at sea June 21.
He was born on the Hutchinson farm
place, two miles east of Hubbard, twenty-three
years ago, and ' worked on bis
mother's and adjoining farms up to the
timeofhis enlistment. ' One brother,
Will Hutchinson, is a section foreman
at Mt. Angel ; another, Elijah, is a
farmer near Canby, while the third
brother, Ed, also lives. Mrs. John
Zeek, of Clackamas, is Private Hutch
inson's sister.
As the hot weather comes on, Dalles
people-invariably hie themselves to the
numerous summer resorts so easy of ac
cess from our city, where many of them
remain until the fall term of school com
mences. The exodus has begun, and
every day families leave the city, eager
for the cool, invigorating sea breezes, or
the quiet' rest of weeks spent by some
clear mountain stream. Soon the streets
will show the difference in the evening,
when the "summer girl" has deserted
them for "greener fields ;" and thereon
will be seen only a few tramps and the
inevitable newspaper reporter, both of
whom are '"only waiting till the shad
ows are a little longer grown," when
walking will be a more pleasant pas
time and the nightwatchman be asleep
on bjs beat.
Owing to the increase in the amount
of. wool and other freight coming to the
Wasco warehouse, a large force of men
are employed at present and are kept
extremely busy from morning till night.
On account of the large addition that
has been built on to the warebonse, it is
much more convenient to handle and
and store. wool and grain than in smaller
warehouses, and as the expense of
handling is leas, the cost is less in pro
proportion on the producers. For this
reaeon, this warehouse can do as well
for its patrons as any in the land. Its
offices are neatly arranged and if any
business is to be transacted with Mr.
Lord, the manager, he has a neat private
office where it can be attended to with
out it becoming public property. The
large amount of business that is being
transacted at present shows plainly that
the people appreciate the efforts of tbe
Wasco Warehouse Company to please its
patrons. .
Friday's Daily. '
Thursday Charles Florer was seriously
burned on tbe face and hands with car
bolic acid. It appears that he was
drawing a nail from a horse's hoof and
when be had done so he was pouring
carbolic acid in tbe hole left by tbe nail.
Tbe horse kxked and broke the bottle,
splasning it on . Mr. Florer with tbe
above results.' ."
Le Roy George, tbe rattlesnake king,
gave a performance in this city last
evenj)g and the manner in which he
bandies tbe rattlers is little short of
marvelous. He will take -these venom
ous reptiles, which he has caught across
tbe river in Rockland, and handle them
as he would a pet animal. He will
wrap them around his neck as if they
were perfectly harmless and seems to
have Bome ." power, by which be
keeps them from injuring him- His
show is certainly worth the price of ad
mission, which is 10 cents. He will
show this afternoon and evening, also
tomorrow, next to Murchie's stables.
The Dalles Commercial and Athletic
CI ah team, consisting of Judge Brad
sbaw, Fred Houghton, M. T. Nolan, N.
J. Sinnott, Victor Schmidt and Carev
Ballard, leaves on the 7 o'clock train
this morning for Portland, where they
will take part in the tournament for the
Feldenheimer trophy. Tbe contest will
be between the Multnomah, and the D.
C. and A. C. teams. Our boys will be
joined in Portland by H. M.Ogden, who
is a member of the team.
Several accidents occurred in Spokane
on the Fourth. Mrs! James Coverly
nearly lost her eyesight by being struck
in the face by a piece of a flying bomb.
Wm. Wilson was struck in the face by
a flying rocket, and will loose the larger
part of his nose. Nelson Hart son, son
of M. T. Hartson, exploded a bomb in a
tin can with disastrous results to him
self and tbe can. He was cut in the
face and arms and received other slight
injuries none of. which, however are
serious.
Dorothy, the 5-year-old daughter of
Justice Holman, of Dayton, narrowly
escaped being burned to death Monday.
Unobserved by her mother, the little
girl got hold of some - firecrackers, and
proceeded to amuse herself. In some
way her waist was ignited and be fright
ful screams soon brought her cousin,
Mrs. George- Savage, to her rescue.
Without a moment's hesitation Mrs.
Savage seized the child and extingnisbed
the flames by briskly rubbing the cloth
with her bands, bnrninar tier bands
painfully. Tbe little girl was burned
quite badly on the breast and arms, but
it is thought she will recover.
R. C, Atwood, who is extensively in
terested in wheat-raising in Sherman
county, in speaking of tbe crop outlook,
said; "Sherman county is going to
market more wheat this year than any
other county in tbe state. I believe
Leiter prices for wheat are past, and
fair prices will prevail. The California
shortage will make room for our prod
uct. Our farmers are well posted,
and. in most case will seek the early
market, which, as a rule, is the best for
tbe section. It will not take long to
supply the California shortage and load
all the chartered ships from the great
yield of wheat that will be produced
this year in the Northwest."-
. "I have used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in my family for years and al
ways with good results." says W. B.
Cooper, of El Rio, Cal. "For small
children we find it especially effective."
