We understand that Mrs. Cbas. Stabl
ing and Son, the well known Dalles flor
ists, contemplate building a new green
bouse in the near future. So great is
the demand for the flowers and plants at

ply their' customers at present, and will
construct another-house so that they
will be prepared to fill all orders.

' Surveyor Goit returned- recently from
a surveying tour on White river and the
Joniper Flat country. His object be
ing to look into the matter of building
an irrigating flume from either White

property in that eection.
The old O.E.AN. bridge across Mill
creek has been purchased by Mr. Emil
Schanno and Mr. Henry Maier, cf this

of hats. Her parloTB are known through
out a great part of the Inland Empire.
The entertainment at the Baldwin
opera house last night by the Wizard
Oil company was up to -the usual

suddenly ill after the show on Thursday
evening and. was unable to be present at

At the Wizard Oil concert Saturday

winner of the diamond ring, winch is
reported to be a beauty. -
Smith and Cockerline, who have
bought the grocery store of Fred Fisher,
took possession today. The Chronicle
welcomes them to the business circles of
The Dalles, and wishes them success
Are you preparing to aid in making
our fair a success? If not, do so at once.
Have you not some exhibit which will
ntereet others and advertise our section
of the country? Think the matter over
The Antelope Herald says: AlEspiog,
who for some time had charge cf the
alleys in the Umatilla House, is in
charge of the setting np of E. C. Dicker
son's new allev. The old quarters have
been enlarged and refitted, and will
soon be ready for business.
Could anyone ask for- more beautiful
weather than the people ot Eastern
Oregon are enioving at present? The
rain of last Wednesday having cleared
the atmosphere, settled the dust and
left our roads in a splendid condition,
everyone see res to be enjoying the situ
ation to the fullest extent. In fact, we
"like the place."
Rev. DeForest being absent inGold
endale yesterday," the pulpit of the
Episcopalian church in this city was
filled by Rev. Hammond, of Portland,
who recently came to the coast from
Chicago. At the Congregational church
Rev. W. H. Burr, of Condon, condocted
services in the morning, there ' being
no service in the evening
For a time this morning it was feared
the Inland Flyer would be compelled to
swell in order to accommodate the large
list of passengers which .thronged her
decks. Many were harvest bands re
turning home, while there were a num
ber of tourists who were indeed fortcnate
in having such a perfect day in which
to make the trip of all trips.
One would naturallyexpect the Oregon
hens to lay golden eggs, especially those
of the gold fields of Eastern Oregon.
However, they are beginning to show
silver tendencies, not only in price, but
size. Saturday Eddie Reed brought to
our office a specimen of hen -fruit which
weighed two drachms and it-would take
very nearly sixteen "to make one good
sized egg. - . .L' '- ' '"
Mr.Emil Schanno shipped some of
Eastern Oregon's best fruit to Portland
this morning, where it will be exhibited
at the exposition. By the interest which
Mr. Schanno takes in the horticulture
of this section of the state, he has done
much to advertise the state, and deserves
much credit. - In many ways unknown
to the people generally, he is working
indirectly for the welfare of the fruit
growers. - ...
- Richard Gorman laid down his pencil
Saturday and left the local columns of
The Chronicle to the tender mercies of'
a new reporter, who not only solicits the
sympathy of a suffering public, but also
asks their indulgence while we practice
our new lesson. Mr. Gorman left yester
day for Salem, not accompanied by an
officer, bnt ofhis own free will, and will
probably remain during the session of
me legislature.
The Prineville Review has an account
of the marriage of a former Dalles -boy,
Albert Lee Weigel, and Miss Lala -Wil-kins,
of Corvallis, at the latter place last
Tuesday. Lee was brought up in this
city; removing with his parents to Prine
ville a few years ago, where he . is enr
gaeed in the stock "business .and will
make"his future home. He was a stu
dent in the academy here, and bis old
schoolmates as well as friends, baveonly
the best wishes for. his future. ,
- With the state fair in fall blast , and
the extra session of the legislature con
vening today, Salem is in her liveliest
mood. Every train brings in not only
senators, representatives and numberless
clerks, but many others directly and in
directly interested. TheOregonian says
politicans are little in evidence in Port
land ; but certainly the effect
visit is plain to be seen in the
of that paper, which' is minus
probably due to the surplus
with the Simon faction. .

A sad case of destitution is
reported
by the Salvation Army, who in
spite of
the many criticisms - which are made
concerning them, are always found ready
to relieve the needy. The family in
question ate Uving near the garrison and
the mother and one son are dangerously
ill with typhoid fever, while an infant ot
three years, who died yesterday of. the
disease, was buried this afternoon. The
county has taken the matter in hand,
and buried the child, whiie our citizens
have rendered them assistance.
.there was enough business going on
in the East End this morning to suffice
for two cities the size of The Dalles
From early morning till late this after
noon the road from the' warehouses
reaching far up on the brewery grade
was so crowded with wheat teams that
it was impossible to pass with a single
rig. Then in the stockyards were a num
ber of cattle, some belonging to the
packing company and a band which Mr,
Mays had disposed of to Charles Butler
of Port Townsend.
At an adjourned session of the county
court of Grant county last week, it
was -decided to levy a toll of one-half
cent per head on - all sheep driven
across the North Fork bridge at Monu
ment. This will affect Morrow county
sheepmen, who range their herds in
Grant countv, as the bridge is on the
trail over, which these herds annually
pass. It is stated that the court took this
action for the purpose of making the
bridge self -sustaining, as it is claimed
over $600 was paid -out en it last year
for repairs, the damage being caused
by the passage to and fro of sheep.
The beach back of the Umatilla House
is beginning to assume the appearance
of a big wood yard. Almost every day
one or more scows laden with fuel ar
rives from parts down the river and re
turns hastily for another cargo, and
in spite of the fact that load after
load of wood is distributed daily among
the residents, the piles continue to in
crease so rapidly that soon all the space
will be occupied, and another place will
have to be chosen in which to pile the
same nntil it is sold and distributed.
Mr. Reynolds alone has nine, hundred
cords of wood on the beach, while other
wood merchants have' considerable
amounts. - -
'The railroad rate war ended Saturday
night! The new schedule of fares, for

The ending of the war" bad a stim

were added to each train. 1

This morning a demented ycung
woman by the name of Miss Rosa N.
Prather was brought to this city from
Alosier. upon examination she was
adjudged violently insane, and seemed
to be concerned as to the safety of her
soul, insisting that some one is rndeav
oring to steal it. She was taken to
Salem on the afternoon train.
In looking over a copy of the Daily
Alaskan News, a bright, epicy sheet
published at Skagway, we find that it is
edited by an old Dalles boy, William
Sheffield, who has become quite a famous
newspaper man, having recently been
connected with prominent papers in
Seattle. Will, like many of our Dalles
boys, is making his way to the front
and those who know him are sure he is
succeeding,
Drake C. O'Reilly, general manager of
the Columbia & Southern Railway, says
the completion of the road to Moro has
been delayed on account of the difficulty
of procuring men. This trouble is now
over, and men are coming in looking for
work about as fast as places can be found
for them'. These men have probably
been employed in the harvest fields or
hoprards. The road will be completed
to Moro, twenty-eight miles from Biggs
in about four weeks.
We learn that . Mr. R. JJ. Hood has
purchased the property of J. E. Barnett,
on the hill, and has decided to make his
home here. We felt certain Mr. and
Mrs. Hood could never be thoroughly
weaned away from The Dalles, and wel
come them home again. At the same
time, it is with regret that we part with
such citizens . as J. E. Barnett and
family, who will remain in Portland, as
tbey were ever foremost in every work of
reform and in the interest of the city.
The Bittner Company which so cap
tivated Dalles people last fall, are now
giving a series of plays in Salem, and
yesterday afternoen a part of the com
pany visited the state insane asylum
and gave an entertainment for the
benefit of the patients confined there.
Manager Kinersly has baa some cor
respondence with Mr. Bittner, and it
is probable we will in the near future
have an opportunity, to again hear this
pleasing company,
Yesterday was the opening day of the
Washington state fair at North Yakima,
and a few Dalles people, principally
those who are interested in the races,
are in attendance. . This is fine fair
weather in every sense . of the term, and
it is to be hoped will continue, or again
return, when our fair opens. The view
which can be obtained from the fair
grounds on such a day as this would be
considered worth the price of admission
by many who are compelled to con
tinually gaze upon level plains. r .
' The sound of the fire-bell, although
familiar to citizens of this place, will
never become so much' so that it will
not strike terror to every . heart, for
we know "whereof it speaks.". And
so this morning whenjat abont 8 o'clock
its clanging was heard the streets were
in an' instant thronged and soon every
one was rushing toward the hill fear
ing another disastrous fire on ac
count of the fierceness of - the wind.
With difficulty, the -hook and ladder
company made the ascent,.' only lobe
informed that the fire was out, the
cause' of the alarm having been the
burning out of a chimney in the home
occupied by Mr. Fleming, on the' cor
nor opposite D. P. Ketch urn's residence,
on Eighth street. No complaint did
they make however, for all were too
pleased that this time, at least, "we
had been spared.
A letter received . this mdrninz by
Leslie Butler from bis wife, wfio is still
in Skaguay, says -that they Tare having
the finest-of weather, really exceptional
for this time of the year. She also says
that great excitement is -now prevalent
over the Atlin mine, about one hundred
miles from Skaguay, and that one man
bad brought in a nugget worth $300.
The morning of the day that the letter
was written Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Michell,
who left Goldendale overland in April,
reached that city and were so delighted
with the surroundings that they had at
once determined to purchase property
and remain, at least during the winter.
Starting oat with the prospect of having
somewhat ot a pleasure trip, they had
found that "all is not gold that glitters",
but among the pure gold was some alloy.
However they were not regretting their
journey, bat only glad to reach civiliza
tion. '. ';'' ', '-J-" ''.

IS HELD FOR MURDER
MAGERS, THE ALLEGED SLAYER
OF RAY SINK, ARRESTED. "
He is an ex-Convict The Dead Man-Was
i in His Company When Last
Seen Alive.
. W. H. Magers, an ex-convict, was ar
rested in Portland at noon yesterday, on
suspicion of being the murderer of Ray
Sink, of Moro, whose body was found
floating in the Willamette, opposite Sa
lem, Tuesday afternoon. Sink was last
seen alive in company of Magers, bat
the prisoner declares he does not know
what became of his former friend after
they parted in Salem on Tuesday, the
13lh inst.
The capture of Magers was effected by
the Portland police within twenty-four
hours after they were notified that he
was wanted in Salem. About noon cn
Thursday Sheriff Durbin, of Marion
county, wired Chiet McLaughlan that he
had secured enough evidence to warrant
the arrest of Mager, and that he was in
that city. . Steps were at once taken to
locate the fugitive, but he could not be
found until 11:30 yesterday morning,
when it was learned that he was staying
at the Depot hotel, corner of Seventh
and Glisan street, with two girls, one of
whom he claimed was his wife, and the
other his niece. . t
Detectives Ford, Cordano and Barry
were immediately sent to the hotel, and
arrived there just before dinner. Ford
entered the dining room, and, stepping
up to Magers,' told him he was wanted
at the city jail..
-When taken before the ' chief, Magers
did not seem to be worried in the least
He answered all inquiries, and as he was
not charged with the murder or interro
gated directly concerning the deed, he
did not have any cause for anxiety. His
appearance was rather favorable. After
the examination he was lodged in ' jail,
where he was kept nntil today, when he
was taken to Salem.
In the opinion of the police the Salem
officers have a good caee against Magers
THE SALEM SESSION.
Members Gathered for Governor Lord's
Twenty-day Session.
A representative of The Chronicle
was at Portland most of last week and
yesterday, and he reports conditions
quite different from" that reported by
the Oregonian.
It is generally supposed that Senator
Simon will be the president of the senate,
though it was conceded that there was
considerable objection to him. If there
is any sort of combined action, he will
be defeated today. . It is repeatedly
urged that he bad . held the place long
enough. . - " v .
It is extremely doubtful it a caucca
can be called lor organization in the
bouse. If not Carter, or some other
Republican besides Maxwell will be
chosen. ,
Tn the matter of the senatorship, it is
pretty generally conceded that Corbett
cannot win. It is not likely that a
caucus can be called on the matter, and
this failing,' down goes the aged banker
Most of the country members favor a
harmonious coarse and the candidacy of
Hon. M. C. George is growing in' favor,
Salem, will be full of Corbett lobyists
and boodlers. Graham Glass and .At
torney Joseph will lead the army of
sack-holders, but their presence will not
have the effect that tbey had hoped.
While a few weak.-kneed members may
succumb to tbe "influence", yet most of
them-will quail before the awful res
ponsibility of having foisted upon tbe
people a man whose very . election is
significant of boodling, and one that can
never represent the Republican. -party or
the. people. A member , who cold
bloodedly trains with Glass and that
gang can expect, that "bis constituents
will charge him with selling ont.
The Chronicle expects to bear regu
larly from Salem during the contest,
which will commence today."
RETURN OF THE REGULATOR.
Our Old Friend Towed np Yesterday
From the . Locks A Little Disabled,
-. . Bnt Still in the Bins.
The news that our tried old friend was
to return home last evening, caused a
large crowd to gather at tbe dock of the
P. & A. N. Co. at 8:30 to welcome
her back, and as the Inland Flyer and
little tug," Pearl, which belongs to the
lumber company at Viento, made'their
appearance towing the disabled craft be-
ween them; to many it seemed like the
return of a scarred' warrior from battle.
Indeed the Regulator does look some
what the worse for wear : bnt when shei
dons ber bew fall jacket and comes forth
in her new riggin' . the swellswill stand
back and watch her go by.
;"- It was considered advisable( to bring
tbe. Regulator to this- city and "beach
her, so that she would be dry when her
new hull, which is being built in Port
land, is finished, , Accordingly yester
day bout-10 o'clock, the two crafts
above mentioned started up the river
with their burden- homeward, bound,
reaching here about 8 :30, 'and- she now
looks more comfortable as she rests on
the bosom of Mother Columbia at the
foot of Washington street. " . " ' I ' .
" in about six weeks" her new hull will
be completed and brought to The Dalles,
where the disabled house will be placed
on it, thoroughly repaired and as good
as new.' The upper deck now is in av
fair condition, but the lower will need
much work before she is in good trim
Dalles people will welcome the day
when the Regulator again lifts her head
and proudly bids defiance to the winds
and waves which downed her. And she
will lord it over them when she does.
ENTERTAINED BY THE ELKS.
The Members of The Wizard OilCompany
Partake of Their Hospitality.
Many of the theatrical companies
which visit our city have reason tJ re- :
member kindly the treatment received
by them at the hand of the Elks of The
Dalles. Generally among the members
of the company will be found a number
who are affiliated with that order, and
who take great pleasure in brousing for
a few bonis with their brothers. Such
was the case Saturday evening when
after their concert the Wizard Oil Com
pany met with them at their hall and
spent a few hoars in social communion.
While entertainment had been pre
pared by the order, they were in turn
highly entertained by their guests, who
sang, recited and gave numerous spec
ialties during the evening. As a climax
to a most enjoyable time a banquet was
served, which requires no description
when we consider just how fastidious
tbe members of this order are when the
wants of the inner man are concerned.
Be6ide, the "proof of the pudding is in
eating it", and while the guests may
have bad a pnddin', from where we're
sitting it would be difficult to describe
its flavor.
Accldently Shot.
Saturday in the afternoon, while Paul
French and Harold Thompson were
hunting near the fruit farm of Rev. O.
D. Taylor, about three miles from the
city, Harold's gun became unruly and
accidently discharged, sending a bullet
through Paul's leg, just above the knee.
Neither one of the boys seems to know"
just bow it happened, and were both,
badly frightened, Harold feeling ex
tremely grieved to think of the narrow
eecape of hiB little Mend. Rev. Taylor
brought them home in his buggy and a
surgeon was called, who soon tound that
the wound was not a dangerous one, and
at first gave Paul little pain, although
as the hoars passed by it grew more
sore, aud will perhaps confine him to
the house for a few weeks.
. The boys were not to blame, and they
are to be congratulated that what might
have been a fatal accident.or by striking
a few inches lower havecansed lameness
for life, ended so fortunately:

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the-inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, bearing will be destroyed for- .

The Sunday Oregonian, in the Good
ness of its heart, has taken np tbe mis
sion of such papers as tbe Heart and
Hand and other matrimonial agencies,
and in its last issue published a heart-
rendering appeal from an eastern widow
for a husband. Dalles young men are
not slow to notice sich-like items, and
accordingly one of our society young
men devoured the article and bad just -seated
himself to answer the lone widow, -when
in stepped an elderly gentleman
from a neighboring vicinity and asked
