J. V. Creightou, tbe traveling freight
agent of tbe Northern Pacific, ia very
much pleased with the business outlook
in tbe Inland Emprial, says tbe Tele
gram. lie has just returned from a
swing aronnd the circle in Eastern Ore
gon and Washington, and finds evidence
of prosperity on every hand.
Today Mr. I. P. Jolea and wife, Miss
Fearle Joles and Miss B. Schooling will
leave on the Dixon for Moffatt Spring,
where tbey will establish a camp. For
tbe next month their friends will find
them "at home at Camp Havana," .and
as Ths Chronicle hopes to have a cor
- respondent in that vicinity in a short
time, a lengthy write-np of tbe camp
may be expected.
A Kansas man has discovered the
reason that an engine 19 called she, and
his argument is that tbey wear a jacket,
and aprons, have shoes, hose, and drag
s train behind them ; they have a lap,
need gnidee, ride wheels', will not turn
ont for pedestrians, sometimes foam
and refuse to work, they attract men,
are very contrary and it always takes a
man to manage them.
Yesterduy evening Frank O'Leary ar
rived from Portland on tbe Dixon. He
states that his father, John O'Leary, is
getting along splendidly, being able to
sit np in an invalid chair, and is in good
health and spirits. His leg has been
removed from the plaster paris mold
and fixed so that he can move aronnd
on crutches. In a short time, if he con
tinues to improve, he will be in shape
to be removed to hia home in Sherman
county.
The run of salmon continues light on
the upper river, so that the canneries
are laying idle most of the time. Un
less an exceptionally heavy run of fish
comes daring the next ten days tbe
owners of canneries as well as the
fishermen will loose money daring tbe
latter part of the season. Taking tbe
season throughout it has not been as
profitable as previous ones, although we
are safe in saying that no one lost money
in tbe fhh business this season.
At St. Mary's hospital in Walla Wal
la, last week, Dr. N. G. Ballock per
formed a remarkable surgical operation.
Miss Carrie Stone, of Athena, who had
for some time been suffering from stom
ach trouble, her death being but a ques
tion of a short time, was taken to the
hospital to be operated on as a last re
sort. Dr. Ballock and hia assistant re
moved from her stomach a large mass of
black hair, or a dermoid cyst growth
It measured 32 inches in length, and 5
inches in diameter, and weighed six
pounds. Miss stone has a good chance
of recovery.
Last night Ward L9wis, the eight-
year-old son of Mrs. Mary J. Lewis, of
Eingsley, died of scarlet fever. Tbe
little fellow has been sick for some time
and bis death was not unexpected. He
was an intelligent little boy ani bis
death will be a sad blow to hia widowed
mother. Quite a number of children in
the Eingsley vicinity are down with the
same disease and in a number of cases it
haa proven fatal. Dr. Logan waa called
yesterday afternoon to attend the little
enfferer, but he arrived . too late to ren
der any assistance.
Tbe great council, Improved Order of
Bed Men, concluded its labors Thurs
day, and adjourned until tbe "twenty
seventh sun, buck moon, G. S. D., 408,"
when it will meet in Pendleton. A great
deal 'of business was transacted on the
last day of the meeting. The morning
was occupied by the consideration of re
ports of the various committees and the
decisions of .the great sachem.' Reports
of the mileage and per diem committees
were adopted end then a recess was
taken until 1 p. in. In the afternoon, a
resolution authorizing the printing of
250 copies of the great council's proceed
ings, was adopted. The selection of tbe
place for holding the next council "was
brought up, and Oregon City and Pen
dleton were mentioned. The latter waa
chosen by a large majority.
. Shortly after breakfast at Fort Walla
Walla Thursday morning 42 men of
troop A were taken 111 with violent pains
in the stomach and nausea. The afflict
ed men were ordered sent to the hos
pital, but on tbe way many dropped to
the ground and lay groaning in agony
until medical assistance from the city
arrived. The. plot of ground between
the quarters and the hospital was cov
ered with prostrate blaecoata for a quar
ter of an hour and resembled a battle
fluid. That evening all bad recovered,
except five men, who are in a serious
condition. Neither the doctors nor the
soldiers are able to give a cause for tbe
sickness. The doctors pronounce it
cholera morbus. The food haa been
examined and tested and found all right.
Some think the water baa been tamp
ered with. One of the symptoms was
internal burning, and the men before
tbe arrival of tbe physicians drank large
quantities of ice water to get relief, but
without avail.
Sunday's Daily.
The first grapes of the season were
brought to the city by T, A. Fleck, hav
ing been raised on his farm a short dis
tance from tbe city. - ' "
Fobs Beardsley has been elected a
teacher in the Arlington public school
to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of H. M. Clay. Mr. Meal was re-elected
principal, and Mr. Cross and Mi9S Hur-
burt were re-elected teachers.
Thoneands of men who left California
expecting to get work at harvesting in
tbe Inland Empire, are strung along tbe
lines of railroads from Tbe Dalles to the
Idaho line, both in Oregon and Wash
ington, and besides being unable to get
work, are out of fends, and it is becom
ing a serious question with them bow
they are goiog to subsist.
Last evening the oil painting of Mt.
Hood, taken from the Clackamas river,
which is the work of Prof. W. W. Arm
strong, of Oakland, was raffled at Blake
ley &. Hoaghton'8 drugstore. The win
ning number, 13, was beld by Joseph
Kobler. We understand Mr. Kohler
contemplates going into housekeeping
in the near future, and a more beautiful
decoration for his new home could not
be found anywhere.
W. D. Grave9 was attacked by a foot-'
pad on tbe railroad track in La Grande,
Wednesday night. Tbe footpad struck
at him with a club, but missed his aim.
Mr. Graves struck his assailant on the
head with a heavy stone and felled him
to the earth and proceeded to jump on
him. Just then another footpad came
running toward the scene of the fight,
and Mr. Graves concluding he bad bad
enough fighting' for one night, took to
his heels. The footpads escaped.
Claud Branton, charged with the mur
der of John Linn, will be given a pre
liminary examination in Eugene, Mon
day. Linn, who was about 50 years old,
was shot through the head and instantly
killed at Alder springs, 80 miles east of
Eugene, on the McKenzie river, June 15,
his body being afterward cremated to
bide all traces of the crime. Two men j
were at the camp at the time of the
murder Conrtland Green and Claud
Branton. Green charged Branton with
the crime. Branton was arrested in
Eugene a few days ago. Linn waa a
well-known Gilliam county stockraieer.
Columbus A. Rhea, pioneer stockman
and banker, of Heppner, says that the
Morrow county section is highly pros
perous. Wool at Heppner is beginning
to move a little $20,'000 worth was sold
last Saturday at 12 and 13 cents. James
Jones sold the wool from 10,000 of his
sheep, and several other smaller lots
bave been sold. But William Peniand
is holding his 250,000 pounds, and most
other growers are holding theirs, be
lieving that prices will advance. Wool
is advancing in Europe, and the Hepp
ner price could go up five cents in the
grease without getting above the level
of scoured. ' Mr. Rhea thinks that wool
will rise in price as soon as it geta into
the hands of speculators, as it did last
year.
Tuesday's Daily.
' The report that the Dalles City would
be up today is a mistake, as some im
provement haa to be made on the boll
ers, which will take some time yet be
fore tbe boat can go into service.
A fearful hailstorm over in Umatilla
county recently completely ruined 2000
acres of wheat and injured fully aa much
more- Tbe hail stones were two inches
in diameter, and fairly beat tbe grain
into the ground.
A freight train crew and a gang of
tramps engaged in a free-for-all fight at
Huntington last Thursday, in which tbe
railroad men, by tbe judicious use of
monkey rencbes. sncceedsd in scattering
the Wandering Willies. -
Yesterday Thomas Twohig, who for
some time has been dangerously, ill
from an attack of appendicites, was
taken to St. Vincent's hospital in Port
land for treatment. He is certainly a
sick man, but with skillful treatment
may pull through all right.
' Yesterday Carey Ballard, the popular
proprietor of the Columbia Caudy Fac
tory, changed the name of hia estab
lishment to "The Palace of Sweete,"
and put up a new sign. The name is
certainly appropriate for the delightful
cafe . where everything in the way of
cooling drinks can be secured. ..-".'-
Sunday night W. H. O'Dell got into
trouble with a party at the Bee Hive
restaurant. It appears that the vaga
bond made some remark concerning
O'Dell's wife, which caused the fight, in
which Mr. O'Dell got badly need up. He
was struck on tbe head, which inflicted a
long gash, and in the scuffle he had his
thumb badly bitten. Dr. HolliBter waa
summoned and dressed the wounds.
. Aa usual a splendid lot of scores were
made at the Umatilla House alleys dur
ing the week ending Sunday. The Uma
tilla House, on account of its location
and the river breeze, is tbe coolest place
in the city, and bowlers can enjoy a
game there during the t hot weather
when it is entirety to warm at the other
places. ; The scores are as follows:
Maetz, Monday, - 69 ; Tuesday, N, J.
Sinnott, 55; Maetz, Wednesday, . 65;
Thursday, 54; Friday, 59; Saturday,
Esping, 68; Sunday, Weigel, 53. . "
On Friday of last week Miss Adna
Helm closed a very successful, term of
school on upper Mill creek. There were
three little boys among her pupils,
Frank, Guy and Hugh Fagan, whom
she mentions very complimentary, they
having been the only ones entitled to be
placed on tbe roll- of honor, and were
also on the roll of honor at the close of a
term Miss Helm taught in the district
last year.
The hot weather of the past weed has
been too much for the bowlers at the
club, and has put a damper on tbe sport
to a great extent. Many of the enthus
iasts are out of town and those here find
more pleasure in sitting on the veranda
and resting rather than exciting them
selves by this favorite sport. Tbe only
records kept during the week were that
of Judge Bennett, Mohdav, 52, and 51
made on Tuesday by Carey Ballard.
The Albany Herald and the Corvallis
Union are warning the farmers against
the Earl Fruit Company, of California,
who are now trving to make contracts
with the Oregon farmers. Tbe Herald
says that representatives of the company
secured the entire crop of a number of
Linn county fruit-growers last season
and did not pay a cent for it, but in ad
tion bobbed up a month afterward
with excessive billa for back freight
charges.
An exchange says : A. M. Bunnell, of
Goldendale, arrived in Chehalis last
week with a drove of twenty-five ponies.
He started from Goldendal with 125
bead, and drove them rcross by way of
Cowlitz pass. He says the snow up
tbore was eight feet deep. . He lost
twenty-five head in tbe paBS. He haa
sold tbe greater part of the ponies, and
expects to dispose of all of them in the
Lewis country. It took him ten days to
go from Yakima to the Big Bottom.
A lull military band lends life to any
gathering of people, and is always one
of the most attractive of features. The
managers of tbe Oregon Industrial Ex
position have engaged a first class band
to play afternoon and evening at the ex
position, Sept. 22 to Oct. 22, and all who
attend will bave every opportunity to
delight in tbe music, sitting down to it
they want to sit and promenading
over good floors, with ample space for
healthful exercise. .
Even the sheep seem toknow what an
excellent advertising medium Tbe
Morning Chronicle is as was plainly
demonstrated by a little incident that
occurred last evening. A nice fat mut
ton had in some way got hopelessly lost
from its band and after making a vain
attempt to get - its bearings it strolled
boldly into the back door of this office
ia order to be advertised. At the time
of going to press it was waiting patient-
Iv in the back vard nntil its owner reads
the paper and comes after it.
-Sheepmen who range their flocks in
tbe Cascade complain that there will be
a scarcity of grass on tbe summer ranges,
and in consequence sheep will bave to
be brought out of the mountains earlier
than common, unless they are permitted
to herd on that portion of tbe Cascade
reserve that has been withdrawn, lying
north of ti e Barlow road. Sheepmen
insist that their flocks are no detriment
to the mountain ranges, and will proba
bly endeavor to prevail upon tbe de
partment to allow them to paatare on
tbe headwaters of Hood River.
Yesterday morning J. P. Lucas took
his position as register and Otis Patter
son as receiver of The Dalles land office
For over four years Register J. F. Moore
and Receiver W. H. Biggs, the two gen
tlemen who yesterday stepped out of
office, fulfilled their duties in their r.e
spective positions as ably as they have
ever been - fulfilled by any land office
officials. Although regrets are expressed
at their stepping out of office, still we
trust that their successors are men who
wll! fill the position satisfactorily to
everyone, and wiH leave with aa clear a
score to their credit as their successors
- The family of Matt Stanton, a well-
known rancher near Yakima, are great
ly worried as to his whereabouts. Some
six weeks ago he started for Oregon in
company with J.: W. Downer, to buy
land, and while Mr. Downer baa return
ed, Mr, 6 tan ton has not, and no word
nas been received from him since bis
departure. He parted from Mr. Downer
Shortly after reaching Oregon, and has
not seen or beard of him since. He is
supposed to have had a considerable
sum ol money with - him, . which adds
come color to the belief of possible fonl
play indulged in by bis relatives in Yak
ima. :
Last evening an old gentlemen, Wm.
H. Grosser, attracted quite a lot of at
tention on tbe square at the intersection
of Second and Washington streets with
a large telescope with which by tbe pay
ment of 10 cents one cnnld view tbe
moon, Saturn and the other planets.
His telescope is a very good one and
brings out fhe planets Tip a femarkahiy
distinct manner. He has also a magni
fying glass which makes a drop of stag
nant water appear the size of a man's
head and plainly shows the numerous
insects with which the water is filled.
A look through bis glasses is certainly
worth the price he charges. . -'
A number of the citizens who reside
in tbe vicinity of the cow pound have
all kinds of complaints to make concern
ing what they justly term a common
nuisance. Cows are put in this place
which is in the residence portion of
the city and left there in some instances
for days, withont being milked, fed or
watered. - They consequently-vmake life
hideous for the residents of that portion
of town by their bellowing. 1 We do not
mean to say that the pound is unneces
sary but on the other hand commend
the action of the council in having such
a means of keeping cowa from roaming
on the streets, but we do say that it
should be in a place where half tbe city
would not be kept awake these warm
nights by the noise made by tbe cattle
impounded therein.
A DANGEROUS ERROR.
The Desire of tbe People of the Inland
Empire t Patronise Portland In
dastrles Clicap Fares are a
Great Indaement.
. There ia at present one error in which
our townspeople are likely to be led by
the cheap transportation rates offered
between this place and Portland. The
transportation companies advertise rates
which are certainly cheap, while on tbe
other hand the Portland merchants
claim that by buying from them . the
people of this city can . save much
money. To this statement an exception
must be made. While the pasaenger
rates between here and Portland are
very cheap, the freight rates on account
of competition are cheap in proportion,
which enables our merchants to get
their goods delivered in the city almost
as reasonable as they are unloaded from
tbe cars in Portland. - Oar city has an
abundance of stores which-are selling
goods aa reasonably aa tbey can be sold
anywhere. Oar business men are pros
peroua and can easily afford, owing to
large patronage they enjoy, to sell at a
email margin so that the prices of goods
in this city are equally reasonable as in
anv town on tbe coast.
While it will be well for our people to
go to Portland and investigate, we sin
cerely hope that they will not blindly
purchase goods away from home, think
ing I bey are- gettine a bargain wbile
they can do much better here at home,
It is plain that the people of Eastern
Oregon cannot do belter in Portland
than at home if they consider the freight
paid on goods from there, here and the
other expenses involved in such a trip.
Therefore we exhort our people once
more to look before tbey desert home
industry to deal with people of a strange
town.
A Klcn Strike.
It has been generally and for a long
supposed that somewhere in the vicin
ity of this city untold wealth lay:hidden
in mother earth and every season would
see people prospecting for gold.
Day before yesterday two prospectors
accompanied by a guide started on1
looking for mineral and when jnst a
little ways from the center of the city
thev eaw a sign and entered and the
first lick were rewarded by demonstrat
ing that they had found pay dirt in
large - quantities. They immediately
staked a claim and came back to Dad
Butts omce where tbey paid tbe price
asked for and received a deed to tbe
property. This same guide, viz : Old Dad
Butts, has a whole lot of good pay dirt
left for sale and as a sample will quote a
couple of pieces for today as follows;
A fine fruit farm, near Mosier, one
mile from railroad station and 14 miles
from this city, consisting of 160 acres all
fenced, good house and barn; 500 fruit
trees, now bearing; two good springs of
water, a fine lot of growing timber,
which when cut into cord wood and
hauled to the railroad station is worth
$2.25 per cord loaded on tbe cars ; all for
$300. Some more pay dirt on 11th
street, near Lincoln, three blocks from
High School, consisting of good four
room bouse, new, neat and clean, lot
50x100, city water in house and lot, all
for $475. These are Klondlkee, and if
you want to take either one of these
claims bundle up your blankets, get
onto your dog sled and come quick, as
there will be a rush. -
Matrimonial.
Mr. Joseph Kohler, of this city, was
united in matrimony to Miss Annie
Mell at the residence of Mr. Charles
Mell in the Centerville neighborhood on
Saturday, July 30, 1893. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. A. Horn, and
was attended by a number of relatives
and friends of tbe young couple.
Mr. Kohler is a well known young
mechanic of this city, who has a host of
friends, while the bride is a niece of Mr.
Charles Mell, who waa for many years a
resident of this city.
The many friends of the young people
extend hearty congratulations and wish
them many happy years of married
life. .
