Last night three cailoada of nice fat
mutton sheep were shipped to the Unicn
Meat Co. by Roe Grimes. Mr. Grimes
purchased the sheep from A. A. Bonney,
cf Tygb Valley.
Mr. Clscel and daughter Delia are in

The Dufur Water Company elected
officers and board of directors Wednes
day night. W. R. Menefee was made
fijperlntendent. and C. H. Houghton,
C. P. Balcb and G. W. Johnston were
chosen as directors.
. The case of Wand, who was charged
with obtaining money under false pre
tenses, was dismissed today, cn motion
of the attorneys for prosecution. The
evidence in was not sufficient to justify
a trial. S. E. Van Vector appeared lor
-the defendent and A. A. Jajne for the
state.
The case of James Denton, who waB
charged with larceny of money from
Louie a certain Chinaman residing on
the hill, was dismissed before Judge
Mays this morning the evidence being
insufficient to sanction his being sent to
the reform school. Attorney N. II.
Gates appeared for the defendant while
John Micbell acted as attorney for the
etate.
A serious runaway ccca-red at O. D.
Taylor's place, near this city, about 1 :30
this afternoon. Miss Anna Taylor was
driving a boggy, when the horse took
fright and ran away, throwing her out
on her side. Her right shoulder joint
was dislocated by the fall and she was
badly bruised about the body and bead.
Dr. Logan was called and attended to
ber injuries. He left her resting easy,
and although she was severely injured
she will be able to be around in a few
weeks.
While Mr. Nixon of DeMoss Springs
was coming into Wasco Wednesday, his
little sen Nathan, aged about 8 years,
jumped to the ground from the head
wagon and attempted to get into the
trail wagon. However, he only suc
ceeded in getting caught by its front
wheel, which ran over his left leg, break
ing it above the knee. The little fellow
is gritty , and endured the suffering
bravely until brought into town, when
X)r. Sutcliffe attended to his injuries. At
last accounts the boy was resting easy.
Contrary to past custom sheep in
Oregon are selling as high as in Wyom
ing. And why shouldn't they? Al
though farther west, and consequently
rfrom the great eastern markets, Oregon
eheep are better than the sheep of
Wyoming, to which state we export
each year many hundreds ot thorough
bred rams to improve their flocks.
Further, Oregon sheep are ispidly be
coming as good as the best in the Union,
and, at the present rate of improvements,
in breeding, will soon be the best in
the world. '
Yesterday Harry Smith, a young man
of about 24 years of ag, was arrested
near 8-Mile, by Constable Hill, charged
with assault wtth a dangerous weapon.
The prosecuting witness is a man named
Longgreen, who alleges that Smith
threw rocks at him, and being proficient
ing the art, caused him great bodily and
mental pain. He further alleges that
after the assault he was unable to sleep
for several nights, and prays that his
assailant be puniened to the full extent
of the law. - His case has been let for
bearing on Tuesday at 10 a. m. :
The fruit fair , parade this year at
Spokane it is evident is going to b
something well worth seeing. The har
vest festival ' celebration will occur
promply at 2 o'clock Tueeday, the 4th
day of next October. The excursion
rates to the fair will be good from all
points in the Inland Empire on the 31 of
October or any day thereafter till the
last day of the fair, and will permit of a
five days' lay over in Spokane if it is
desired. .. Instead of the usual 5 qpnt a
mile, the rates for the fair will be 2
cents a mile. This includes the 8pokane
Sl Northern road, as well as all otherb
which enter Spokane - - -
- Tuesday afternoon Dafur people were
suddenly alarmed : by the cry of fire,
which proved tu he in J. A. Steven's
etubble fields north of town.. A spark
from the threshing engine had Ipniud
a near by straw stack, from which the
flames commaoicatcd with the etabhle,
and a large area whs tmined over. Had
it not te-n for the numerous hands
which answered to the cry for help, Mr.
Stevens wnnld have BuflWed the loss of
many stack h ,f (train. '-As. St was the
fire was extinguished with wet sacks
' before it had reached any of the stacks,
for which Johnny of course feels thank
ful. - ...
We understand that Mr. Cbristman,
who is on his way to Silver Lake with a
traction engine and three heavily load
ed wagons, has reached the" McGrail
place, about sixteen miles from town.
He pulled into the yard " at ' that place
for water, and while attempting to back
out had a break down," and at present
is laid op for repairs. " Bad break-downs
have occurred at every mark in the road
which has put them back a great deal,
and it is plain that Mr. Chrietman's
machine cannot stand the rough roads
Eastern Oregon. He hopes hower to
make a success of the venture of haul
ing freight from Hay Creek to Silver
Lake. - I
And enjoyable party was given at the
residence of Simeon Bolton lastjsvening,
and was attended by all those who were
camped , at Stevenson during the hot
spell, and a merrier crowd of young peo
ple wonld be bard to find. The party
was given as a farewell to Mr. and Mrs.
J. E. Barnett and family, who will leave
in a short time to make their fnture
home in Portland. Various games were
indulged in and refreshments served.
On the whole, the evening was extremely
pleasant, and on leaving, the guests ex
pressed regrets that such genial friends
as the Barnetta should leave and hoped
they would again return to make The
Dalles their home. . ;
Monday's Dally.
That the liberality of the firm of Pease
& Mays cannot be doubted is plainly
demonstrated by the fact that they to
day gave to each of their employes who
assisted in saving their property on the
night of the fire a ten dollar bill which
is very good wages for such short hours.
The saloon of Mr. John Howe was
moved Saturday from its former location
on the coiner of Front and Court
streets to the building formerly occupied
by Mr. Cross' grocery store on the cor
ner of Second and Union streets. Mr.
Howe hopes to see all l.is former patrons
at the new stand.
Mrs. Rose Campbell, Mrs. Wilson and
Misses Myrtle and Grace Smith, of the
uillinery firm of Campbell & Wilson,
returned from Portland Saturday even
ing where they have been for three
weeks trimming in one of the wholesale
houses. Mrs. Campbell leaves for Pendle
ton tonight to take charge of that branch
of the firm.
Today Joseph Sherar brought in
samples of peaches and egg plums grown
in his orchard at the bridge, and if any
one doubts that the country along the
Deschutes is not a good fruit producing
section, they should see the samples of
frnit grown there. The peaches are un
usually large, juicy and of splendid
flavor, while the plums are equal to any
that are grown in the country.
Saturday night E. B. Wood was
brought up from Bridal Veil with-a
brfdly crushed foot. He was working in
the sawmill at the place and got one of
his feet caught between the massive car
riage and a standard when the machin
ery was in motion and had several of the
bones badly broken. Dr Hollister re
duced the fractures and put the foot, in
a plaster paris cast, and at last reports
the injured man was getting along
nicely.
A curiosity was on exhibition at the
Dalles Commission Co's. store this morn
ing,consisting of a couple of boxes of fine
juicy strawberries, the second . crop
grown this summer on tte vines of Mr.
Miquet on Mill creek. This is something
remarkable; a large crop of strawberries
was harvested early in the summer and
now a second crop is ripened. California
is always held up as a remarkably pro
ductive state, but it cannot boast of two
crops of luscious strawberries in a single
season as can Eastern Oregon. -
About six hundred head of thorough
bred rams were shipped last night by
the Baldwin Sheep and Land Company
from this place to their ranges near
Pendleton. Fourteen hundred head are
in pasture at Eight-Mile en route from
the upper country to The Dalles from
which point they will be shipped east to
Pendleton for winter range. James E.
Hackett, Bhee p buyer for the company, is
snperindending the shipments.
David Patterson Jr. of Eight-mile was
arrested Saturday night by Constable
Hill, charged with the larceny of two
saddles. It appears that Patterson
wanted to leave the country and had his
outfit all but a saddle, and not having
money with which to bny one, he re
solved to use the next beet .means ot
getting one oy stealing It. He first took
one from Harrison Dufur,' but ' was
caouht and -deprived of this. He then
stole one from Mr. Drake, of Eight
mile, which he bad in his possession
when arrested. The time has not yet
been set for his hearing. ' . ' - j
. At the frnit fair this year in Spokane
moat of the societies will have special
days.- For instance, the second day of
the fair, that is the 5th of October, will
be K. of P. day, and the grand chancel
lor of the state of Washington . will be
present. The -Bed Men . have chosen
Octolr 7 as their day. The Shnners,
Eagles, Ely s, Odd Fellows and the press
will also have each a day, devoted to
their order. 1 It is probab e- the com
mercial travelers will also be in the list,
j Many of these societies will also have a
Boat in the harvest festival parade. The
K. of P.'a were tbe first of these orders
to decide on a float, and they expect to
have the handsomest one in the parade.
More hop pickers are passing throoeh
Goldendale, enroute to Yakima county,
than for many years past."--This is ow
ing to a larger acreage than since 1893.
There is a dearth of contracting for hope,
however, and prices are not entirely
satisfactory to growers. At Yakima it
is stated that some contracts "have been
made at 10 to 11c, while some early
sales are as low as 8c. West of tbe
mountains some of the growers are in
dulging in talk of not " picking because
values are not satisfactory, but it is safe
to say that a prime article in bops will
pay at least a moderate profit and as a
whole the state crop is above the
average as to quality. Tte yield,-too, is
generally larger rhan last year. - Yakima
county will rnai- f - a banner yield, tbe
Republic placing the output at 16,000
bales, over half :ts much as was pro
duced in the en ire state last year.
Tuesday's Daily.
Robert Deasmore.a prominent citizen
of Mosier, returned from Idaho a few
days ago. Before leaving Idaho be re
ceived a eevere wound by getting. a
sturgeon book imbedded in his thigh,
which is giving him considerable trouble.
Tbe old Fitzgerald ruins will be built
upas soon as puesible and until such
lime as Mays and Crowe have com
pleted their new store they will locate
in this building. The ruins is the
property of Mr. Joseph Sherar and can
be put in shape at comparatively little
cost as the walls are in good shape and
but little of tbem have fallen down.
Some splendid bowling has been done
by the bowlers at tbe Umatilla House
alleys daring tbe past week. The aver
age score being 64.1 pins. The high
daily scares were as follows : Monday,
H. Maetz, 63; Tuesday, Carl Groehler,
69 ; Wednesday, H. Maetz, 66; Thurs
day, H. Maelz, 66; Friday, Claud Kel
sey, 66; Saturday, Mike Spicenger, 59;
Sunday, H. Maetz, 60.
Today David Patterson who was
charged with having stolen two saddles
had bis hearing before Justice Bayard.
In the first charge of stealing a saddle
from Harrison Dufur he was found
guilty and placed under $200.00 bonds
to appear before tbe grand jury. He is
being tried on the second charged this
afternoon but the trial was not finished
at the time of going to press. Attorney
J. B.Condon appeared for the defend
ant while A. A. Jajne was attorney for
tbe prosecution.
The case of Harry' Smith, who was
charged with assault with a dangerous
weapon ,was.tried before Recorder Gates
last night. The plaintiff in the case,
Augist Longreen, alleged that Smith
assaulted him with rocks, severely in
juring him. The charge of assault with
a dangerous weapon was withdrawn and
another charge of simple assault brought
in, to which Smith- plead guilty and
was fined $15 and discharged. J. Rivolon,
who was arrested Sunday for defacing
property and miking an assault with a
dangerous weapon, will have bis hearing
at 9 o'clock tomorrow.
At an enthusiastic meeting held in
Schanno's hall last evening, it - was de
cided to give a genuine, first-class min
strel show, in about six weeks from this
date, by the local talent of The Dalles.
The boys should be well patronized in
this perlormance, as they have always
entertained the public with their' serv
ices gratuitously in the past, and it
would not be more than deserving for
the public to assist them with their
support. R. H. Lonsdale was elected
general manager ; G. A. Clarke, stage
manager; Prpf. Wm. Birgfeld, musical
director, and H. C. Liebe, correspond
ing secretary. .
' It is the intention of tho Commercial
Club to have an exhibit of Wasco
county's resourses at the Portland Ex
position. - Emil Schanno has been ap
pointed by the president and board of
directors of the Club to make a collec
tion of grains,' vegetable;, fruits, and
in fact a fair sample of Wasco county's
products.. Mr. Schanno will make a
trip to Portland to secure space in tbe
exposition building after which be will
proceed to select the exhibit. It will
be his endeavor to have one of which
the county may well feel proud and
one that will equal any that will be at
the exposition. -. " - '..
A pleasant surprise party was given to
Mr. and Mrs. John Parrott, at their
; residence on Ninth street, last evening.
Quite a number of young folks, friends
of Mr: and Mrs. . Parrott, called in a
body, and declared their intentions of
spending the evening with- them. Al
though tbeattack was unexpected, it
called for an unconditional surrender of
the premises to the young people. Games
were indulged in, refreshments served,
and a general-good time was enjoyed,
until tbe lateness of the hour reminded
the merrymakers that they must evac
uate, and they left with pressing invi
tations to return again.
It has been said by many-that there
wonld be a shortage of storage room for
wheat in The Dalles warehouses on
account of tbe large - amount of wool
Btill unsold. Mr. Lord of the Wasco
Warehouse informs ns, however, that
such will not be the case.' We are", be
stated," "storing all the wool on the
second floor, which leaves us ample
roomon the first floor of onr warehouse
to store all tbe wheat that will come in
this fall. We seldom store any wheat
on tbe npper floor of our warehouse, so
that we bave as much storage room as
usual." i '.

A MURDEROUS ASSAULT.
C. A. Bryant, of Hosier, the Victim of an
Unprovoked Attack Which Might
Bare Besulted Seriously.
A quarrel which might have resulted
in tbe death of one of the best citizens of
Mosier, occurred in Mrs. Moeier's store
in that town yesterday morning.
C. A. Bryant, treasurer of the Slachys
Mining Co., was purchasing goods in
the store, when David Barrie, the clerk
in the establishment, with scarcely any
provocation, struck him a murderous
blow on the side of the head about one
inch below the temple with a heavy
scale weight. He followed up the firet
attack by throwing a second weight, and
seizing a third, attacked Mr. Bryant, at
the same- time making threats against
his life. Although Mr.' Bryant was
dazed from the blow be received he suc
ceeded in standing off his adversary and
escaped without any farther injury.
After the trouble Mr. Bryant boarded
the train for this place and swore out
a warrant for the arrest of Barrie.
Constable Hill went to Mosier yesterday
afternoon and brought up Barrie who
will be tried tomorrow. Mr. Bryant's
injury, while very painful, is not danger
ous and he will be fully recovered in a
short time. Had the weight struck him
one inch higher, however, it would cer
tainly have killed him as it struck with
terrible force and such a blow in the
temple wou'd cause death nine times
out of ten. Mr. Bryant is known by
many of our townspeople and is con
sidered honest, upright and honorable
in his dealings, and is apparently a gen
tleman in every regard: ,
Fire at Vancouver.
Vancouver was visited, by two fires
Sunday night. The first was dis
covered in the library of - Rev. J. E.
Williams' residence, and did consider
able damage before it was extinguished.
Rev. and Mrs." Williams were at church
when the fire was discovered. '
The second fire occured at 2 a. m.,
when the big fruitdryer ' of Rands &
Sons was entirely burned with a quan
tity of dried prunes. What insurance,
if any, was carried on the dryer is not
known. ; The fire department responded
very promptly in both -cases . and
rendered good service in checking tbe
flames. - " ; - - , :." ' ,."
A HOT TIME. -
Four Arrests Made Yesterday All Kinds
Ot Trouble Caused by Intoxicated
- ' Bufnans. -
Sunday was an exceptionally bu?y day
for City Marshal Liuer. Four arrests
were made and the victims are now
in the city jail, awaiting their hearing.
The first of the four disturbers of
the peace began by entering the post
office and throwing . ink bottles and
every other article be could Bud around
the office, and at the same time flourish
ing a gun with a vengeance. The floor
and wall of the office were badly defaced
with ink, and the postal clerk, Will
Crosaen, who escaped by the rear en
trance, was persuaded to resume his
duties only when fully convinced that
the bad man was lodged in jail. From
the post office he went to the Baldwin
Restaurant where he succeeded in driv
ing the inmates of tbut place out with a
"clever" nun play. From there he
wended his way to the Columbia Hotel
where he proved his inability as a sure
marksman by missing the character at
whom he shot, and after satisfying him
self that he had done enough at this
place, he walked around tbe block to
Wood Brothers' meat market where he
received the warmest kind of a recep
tion with a club in the hands f John
Wood. Shortly after this Marshal Lauer
took charge of the" bad man" and. placed
him in jiil, where he now awaits his
hearing. '
Another man was arrested for vag
rancy and for being drunk and disorderly
and placed in jail, while two men got
into a spirited fight in front of the Ger
mania on Second Street, and after
furnishing a fund of amusement to the
bystanders, was put in jail until they
should come to their sober senses, when
they will be punished according to the
enormity of their crime.

SERIOUS RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
H. B. Connolly Thrown From a Wagon
and Seriously Injured.
Monday's Daily.
A serious runaway accident occurred
this morning in the East End, and it was
only by sheer good luck that the owner
of the team escaped with bis life. H.
B. Connolly, of Eight-mile, was coming
down the Brewery . grade with a wagon
heavily loaded with grain. He drove
to one side of the road to let another
team pass, when his horses became un
manageable and threw the driver out on
the road with the greater part of the
wheat out on top of him.
- Some people near by at once assisted
in getting Mr. Connolly out from among
the grain sacks, and it was found his
injuries were very serious.'- He was
taken to Dr. Hollister's office, and upon
examination it was found that bis
shoulder joint was dislocated and his
arm broken about three inches below
the shoulder. His injuries were at
tended to " and comfortable quarters
prepared for him in the Cosmopolitan.
The team ran from the Brewery grade
down Second to Laugblin, then up to
Third and down Third to where that
street intersects Fourth, and down that
thoroughfare to JudgeBennett's property
hear the bridge where they ran into a
telephone pole and tore lose from the
wagon. '"' ,
It was very fortunate that greater
damage was not done, as there were a
large number of teams on the side street
by the Catholic church when tbe runa
way passed, waiting -for Mrs. Fritz's
funeral to start.
The gram was scattered from the East
End all along the line of the runaway,
but outside of the injuries received by
Mr. Connolly the damage was compara
tively light.
OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT.
A Common Sense Communication Stat
ing Why the Deserving Fire Lad-
dies Have a Kick Coming.
The Dalles, Ore., Sept. 5, 1898.
Editor Chronicle :
Knowing that the business men and
taxpayers are interested in tbe welfare
and progress of our city, I believe it is
their hope that at some time we will
have obtained a proficiencyin our vol
unteer fire department. A good fire de
partment means a reduction of fire in
surance and an increase in the protection
afforded property owners.' Most neces
sary of all !s the value of a good hook
and ladder truck and rigging .in the
equipment of a fire department, and I
understand that such can be procured at
a very reasonable figure at the present
time. Now I would suggest that a com
mittee consisting of three from each of
the several fire companies in th city,
be appointed, to confer with, or petition
(as they deem advisable) tbe advisa
bility of the purchase ot necessary equip
ment for the department, as I under
stand tnat several of tbe companies have
not been successful in obtaining the
necessities for good work. Tho volun
teer fire department of onr city con
sists of the young men with nothing at
stake and business men, and if the city
fathers cannot support- it in this, it is a
piteous predicament, ench as can only
exist in a sleepv community.

Attractive Boys.
There is nothing which creates such a
cheerful impreesion on the beholder
than attractive boys. Young girls al
ways interest, but there's a special
charm about the boys, for most people. .
This cannot be so, however, unless they
are neatly and attractively dressed. Pease
& Mays will make this easy for you. At
the front in their store you will find one
counter piled high with boys' clothing,
the kind you want, and you can bave
any five dollar suit in the lot for two
dollars and fifty centt in fact any suit
in tbe lot for just one-half the marked
price.

mon was preached by the pastor. After
