The examination of John Stegman,
charged with maliciously catting a
horce's throat belonging to Frank Whit
man, was this afternoon held in Justice
Bayard's conrt. He was bound over in
the Earn of $100.
The number of wheat and other teams
in town today has demonstrated the
fact that if the street sprinkler were to
make a trip or two up Second street it
would not be amiss. The dust which
is encountered on this famous "boule
vard" is terrible.
Reliable news comes from Portland
that another railroad war is immi
nent. It is eaid that a great fight is
on between the great trans-continental
lines. Some railroad officials are eaid
to have prophesied that the fare from
Portland to New York will probably
reach as low a price as $3. Democrat.
Dalles people will regret to hear that
on Tuesday, Oct. 11th, the local train,
running between this city and Portland,
will be taken off. This has been a great
accommodation to those desiring to make
a short trip to Portland, and the change
will necessitate the early rising of visit
ors to the metropolis, as both west
bound trains leave in the morning.
Warehouse men today say that never
in their experience has there been so
many wheat teams in at one time, the
the brewery grade being so blocked
that it was impossible to pass. Indeed,
the entire city has been awake today.
A small change has taken place in the
price of wheat, and fifty-one cents is
being paid.
Dr. A. N. Fisher, of the Pacific Chris
tian Advocate, will arrive in the city
this evening and speak tomorrow even

early history of Hawaii. Eev. Frank
Spalding will occupy the pulpit in the
morning.
An arrangement has been made where
by the echools of the United States are
to aid in the erection of a Lafayette
monument in Paris. Exercises, there
fore, are to be held and a fund raised for
that purpose. The 19th of the preeent
month has been set aside as Lafayette

Henry C. Murray, ex-sheriff of Mal
heur county, was burned to death in the
city j iil at Vale Thursday morning.
Murray, while not a drinking man, be
came intoxicated and was very boister
ous on the' streets. Marshall Wilson
concluded tbat it was dangerous for him
to be at large and he was locked up in
the city jail. About 4 o'clock an alarm
of fire was sounded, and it was found
that the city jail was ablaze. Citizens
rushed to the scene, but before they
arrived Murray had perished in the
flames. It is supposed that upon awaken
ing and finding himself in jail Murray
deliberately set the building on fire.

Capt. Short made a very successful
trip to the Cascades yesterday, when the
old hull of the Dalles City was towed up
to that place. The hoat arrived here
about 6 o'clock last evening, aud this
morning took down about 700 head of
sheep from Lyfe.
The Prineville Telephone Company is
contemplating increasing its stock for
the purpose of extending the line to The
Dalles by the way of Hay Creek and An
telope. Parties along the line are en
thusiastic over the proepect, and no
doubt the scheme will be carried oat.
The frame of the new Regulator has
been completed at Supple's boatyard,
and the construction of the new steamer
is being pushed forward. The desire of
the company is to get the steamer com
pleted as soon as possible. The new
craft will be about the size of the Dalles
City. Oregonian.
On the 16th the steamer, Senator, will
sail from San Francisco for Manila car
rying the battalion of the Twenty-third
infantry, to which will be attached the
Oregon recruits. Besides these will go
a detached battery or company not yet
determined, most of the hospital corps,
several female nurses, and of course the
officers of the respective commands.
The fair grounds present a busy ap
pearance these days, preparations being
made for our coining fair. It the wea
ther remain as good as we have been
havfng, the town will be crowded with
visitors. However, were all the furies
turned loose in an eudeavor to create
bad weather. Dalles people would "brave
the elements in order to hear Mrs. Reed
sing.
The golden jubilee of the Taylor street
M. E. church, of Portland, began yes
terday morning and will continue dar
ing the week, closing with an all-day
service Sunday. The first church edifice
was a plain wooden structure 30x50 feet
and was built in 1849-50, having for its
pastor at that time Rev. J. H. Wilbur,
who became so widely known and well
beloved throughout the entire North
west. In 1853 Rev. H. K. Hines, who
now resides in Portland, was pastor, and
will fill a prominent place on the pro
gram of the golden jubilee.
Yesterday afternoon upon returning
from a long drive, Mr. and Mrs. Tolmie
drove up in front of their residence, on
the bill, and thinking the horses to tired
to be fiery Mr. Tolmie left them standing
wbiie be carried his camera into the
house. No sooner had he disappeared
than the team determined to reach the
stable, and started on the ran. At the
corner of Fourth and Washington they
decided to take to the sidewalk, bat in
stead found themselves "up a tree," and
after breaking the tongue of the buggy
were compelled to stop, when they were
taken to the stable.
A special from Salem says that A. A.
Hang is in that city endeavoring to pro
care a franchise for a toll road and
bridge across John Day liver at 30-Mile
creek. Some such a measure has been
hoped for by the residents of tbat sec-,
tion, as a road and bridge there would
connect Gilliam and Sherman counties,
thus benefiting residents of both coun
ties, particularly those of Gilliam county,
who have long needed such an outlet.
Nearly one hundred citizens have signed
the petition, and as the bill will be in
troduced today, and poshed through if
possible, the legislature will no donbt
grant the request this session. Mr.
Haug is confident of the success of the
enterprise, although a great amount of
work will be required to build the road
down the bluff which is 1500 feet high.
In a place so noted for its young ladies
as The Dalles, it seems strange tbat the
question most often heard is "Where can
I find a girl?" Not by the young men,
who have been informed they cannot be
bad for love, "nor money either," so
say oar housekeepers, who are many of
them distracted in their efforts to pro
cure help. Not alone are the town peo
ple at a loss to know where to tarn for
assistance, but every day are the news
paper offices visited by our neighbors
from the country who are hunting for
cooks. Where does the difficulty lie?
Communications are now in order as to
the evil resulting from women preferring
office work to the work which it seems
should be theirs from the nature of
things. Let these articles be written by
those whose examples are as good as
their preeeipts, and the results may be
seen in the surplus of girls who are will
ing to take up housework in preference
to office or store work.

The University of Oregon is nothing if
not progressive. Henceiorth the Span

This morning J. H. Cradlebangh came
down from his mines in the Greenhorn
district, near Sumpter. He called at
The Chronicle office, and informs ns
there are six or seven inches of snow. In
that section. When it grows cold in the
mining districts our genial friend "can
always find a warm reception in The
Dalles.
Those who looked around for their
Oregonians today realized tbat the local
train was more to them than they had
thought, as that necessary adjunct to all
well regulated households the Orego
nian now reaches us five hours later.
Kick at it as we may, we're all proud of
Oregon's leading newspaper, and can't
get along without it.
The Southern Pacific railroad men
who ran through to California predict it
is going to be a hard winter. You can't
meke them believe otherwise. They say
the snow on Mt. Shasta has remained
deep throughout the whole year, and
this is one of the dure forebodings. There
are many other signs, but they contend
tbat this one never fails.
At 12:30 p. m., Sunday, while a west
bound train on the Washington & Co
lombia River railroad was coming round
a curve at a point about five miles erst
of Pendleton, it ran over a 2-year-old
boy, the son of L. B. Watson, a farmer
living at Mission. The child had wan
dered away from home, and in attempting
to cross the railroad track, got caught
in a cattle guard. The engineer did not
see the boy until too close to stop the
train in time to prevent an accident.
A part of the train passed over the leg
of the boy, severing it from the body.
The train was quickly stopped and the
child picked up. The little fellow lived
only fifteen minutes after being run over.

Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the
residence of the bride's parents, near
this city, Mr. W. G. Keys, of Mayville,
Oregon, and Miss Belle Floyd were
united in marriage, Rev. Poling officiat
ing. Both of the young people are very
well known in The Dalles, Miss Floyd
having been brought up at the Floyd
farm about five miles from the city,
and Mr. Keys formerly living here and
attending school at the academy. Mon
day morning Mr. and Mrs. Keys left for
a trip to California and Sound cities.
Upon their return they will make their
home at Mayville, where the groom is
engaged in the mercantile business.
Their friends in The Dalles and through
out the country wish for them a success

The latest fad in church socials seems
to be the "Match" social, which we
notice are being held in many of our
neighboring towns. Now,- the public
has never objected to the numerous
kinds of socials given as a means of
procuring funds for carrying on the work
of our churches, and the young, as well
as old, seem to enjoy these pastimes;

making its time to call a bait and for
a chariot or two to convey its members
to the region where matches are sup
posed to be made. Somehow it eeems
evident the ministers are the prime
movers in this novel entertainment, as
they receive the most substantial re
muneration from knot-tying transac
tions. Lively besslons In Salem.

'VILLAGE WORK IN INDIA."
An Interesting; Lecture at the M. E.
Church Convention Closed Sunday.
The missionary convention now in ses
sion in o:ir city is proving a very suc
cessful one, and quite an interest is
being awakened in . the work among
those who heretofore gave It little
thought. The convention closes to
morrow, delegates returning to their
several homes Monday.
The lecture given by Mrs. Prautchlaet
night was one of especial interest, as the
lady and her hu3band were missionaries
in the northwest portion of Bombay
presidency Gugarat, India, for nine
years, returning about a year ago. Her
subject was "Village Work on Camel
Back," which ehe eays is the most un
comfortable means of traveling imagin
able short trip causing her to be enable
to move about for days. In India any
place of from 200 to 20,000 inhabitants
is called a village, and the residents.
particularly those of the lower class, are
extremely anxious to be t. night from the
gospel, enduring the torture of those
who persecute them for the sake of their
religion. - This she gives as her reason
for being so enthusiastic ij the work of
foreign missions, claiming that at home
thousands are taught from the pulpit
and in other ways day after day who
care nothing for their privileges and fail
to improve them, while in heathen
countries those who sit in darkness are
groping after the light and anxious to be
taught. She also made the assortation
tbat it was not a selfish motive which
prompts them to accept the teachings
offered. In one instance while at work
in the famine district, a number of their
converts had preferred starvation to
making their wants known. The Indian
costume and a number of pictures which
Mrs. Prautch had for inspection, at
tracted mnch attention.
At this morning's session an open
parliament took place and election of
officers was held. There will be no ses
sion this evening.
Closing; Missionary Meeting;.
The cloBiDg eervice of the foreign mis
sionary convention was held at the M.
E. church Sunday night, presided over
by Mrs. Whitfield, of Seattle. After
the opening exercises .Mrs. W. G.
Wood worth sang a beautiful solo, "In
Heavenly Love Abiding," followed by
Dr. Fisher who spoke on "The Redemp
tion of Hawaii." No more interesting
address has been listened to for many
years in The Dalles. Speaking from a
personal knowledge, having resided on
the Islands, the doctor so presented bis
snSject that a fund of information could
be obtained, while a fair idea of the ex
tent of the influence of the missionaries
in civilizing the natives, was conveyed.
The sermon by Rev. Frank Spaulding
yesterday morning was equally as good,
treating of the work in South America,
wher& Mr. Spaulding spent some time
as a missionary two years since.
The Sunday school was also addressed
by Mr. Spaulding and Mrs. Prautch, a
returned missionary, who captured the
attention of the pupils by their stories
of work among the native children.
The convention has been a moat suc
cessful one, and the delegates who re
turned to their several homes this morn
ing, felt repaid for coming, while oar
people who entertained them have
reaped much benefit from their visit.
GENERAL BACON'S RECORD.
He Served With Distinction In the Civil
War Was at Vancouver.
General John M. Bacon, who com
manded the troops in the Indian fight at
Walker, Minnesota, Wednesday was for
merly stationed at Vancouver. . He was
inspector-general of the department of
the Columbia for something over two
years, leaving there three years ago. He
owns a large prone ranch near Vancou
ver now, and some other property in the
neighborhood. . He has been stationed
as commander of the department of Da
kota for several years, and he was made
brigadier-general since the opening of
the war with Spain. General Bacon is
52 years of age. He was born in Ken-
tacky, and has been connected with the
army since his youth, when he served
witb distinction in the civil war. He
has a wife and several children.- Gen
eral Bacon entered the Union army as
second lieutenant of the Eleventh Ken
tucky cavalry, September 22, 1832, and
was mustered out as a major August 21,
1865, being then only nineteen years old.
In June 1864. while a captain, be
commanded a detachment of his regi
ment (the 4th Kentucky Cavalry) which,
wiih details from the 5th and 6th Ken
tucky Cavalry numbering in all 500 men
repuleed, with heavy loss to the enemy,
a force of 3500 men under General Pillow
at Lafayette, Georgia.
In October following he, with a detail
of three officers and twenty-seven men
darted into Dalton, Georgia, arouid
which town General Hood's army was
encamped and captured and brought
back to Resaca thirty-one prisoners
without losing a man.
He was appointed captain in the
Ninth cavalry July 28, 1866; major of
the Seventh cavalry ApriU4, 1884; lieutenant-colonel
of the First cavalry April
7, 1893, and colonel of the Eighth cavalry
in 1897.
While a captain he was detailed in
January 1871, as a personal aid, with
the rank of colonel on the staff of Gen.
Sherman ,tbe commander of the U. S.
army.and served as such aide for 13 years
until the retirement of Gen. Sherman.
He was brevetted major for gallantry
at Resaca, Georgia, during the war,
and for gallantry against the Iodians in
Texas in 1869.
PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRIES.
Was a Mistake Made In Awarding the
Contract for Oar New Water Mains?
. Much dissatisfaction has arisen over
the action of the board of water com
missioners in awarding the contract for
improving our water system to the Pa
cific Bridge Co., of Portland. It is
claimed that as they reserved the right
to reject any and all bids.and the bids of
the hardware firms ot our city being in
some instances lower than those of the
company to whom it was awarded, they
should have divided the work and thus
given cor citizens a chance, tor in
stance, iu the matter of labor the Port
land firm made the lowest bid ; for pipes
one of our hardware firms should have
had the preference, while for gates and
valves the other home firm made the
best offer. In this manner the city conld
have saved something like $500, beside
the industries of our own town have
been patronized.
This view of the matter is a very
plausible one, and, to those who have
not questioned the commission as to
their action, seems to be the coarse
which should have been taken. How
ever our water commission, which has
always served the best interests cf the
city in every instance, we feel, must
have considered the question fully, and,
in their judgment, awarded the contract
as to them seemed beet. There were ques
tions to be taken into consideration in
connection with the transaction, which
we know not of.
The best means of building up a city
is in giving preference to . home indus
tries and home labor. Many who are anx
ious that the place they call home . hete
their every interest is, and upon which
they depend for support shall prosper,
fail to recognize this fact, and not only
in matters of large import, but in the
smaller as well, patronize firms in other
cities, which can in no way return such
patronage and who scarcely recognize
such a place as The Dalles. Few of us
are exempt from this charge, and it is a
serious one, when in the aggregate the
amount thus sent out of town is many
thousands of dollars a year. Iu criticis
ing our commissioners let ub remember
tbat we are not in a position to dictate.
WATER COMMISSIONERS MEET.
Contract for Improving Onr Water Sys
tem Awarded to the Pacific Drldg-e
Company.
A special meeting of the board of water
commissioners was held last night at
their office for the purpose of examining
bids for improving our wafer system. T.
J. Seufert, M. Randall, J. B. Crossen, J.
S. Fieh, E. C. Phirman and S. Bolton
were present.
. After a short time was spent in the
consideration of minor matter which had
come before the board, the following
bids were read and considered :
Sidney. Smith and Paquet bid for fur
nishing all material and labor complete
I1061S 31
Pacific Bridge Company bid for famish
ing all material and labor complete. .. 9483 45
Mays S Crowe, for material only, and
not including pressure valve C1G3 13
Maier & Benton, for material only, and
not including pressure valve 6123 32
W K Brown, for labor only 3614 bO
The board after due consideration,
having examined the bids awarded the
same to the Pacific Bridge Company.
It was decided instead of the 12-inch
automatic pressure regulating valve to
substitute an 8-inch automatic pressure
regulating valve with by pass and a 12
inch hydraulic lifting valve, connected
to the engine boose on 3d street with a
galvanized pipe, said valye to open
by the draining of such, the addition of
said change to cost $250.00.
Keed Of School Libraries.
From a circular letter sent out to
teachers by Superintendent Gilbert we
clip the following introduction, after
which he gives suggestions as to the
means to be used in procuring funds
with which to purchase the desired
libraries, and urging them to begin work
at once :
"At the Annaal Teachers' Institute,
held in The Dalles, September 7th, 8tb
and 9th, 1898, the question of the need
of school libraries and supplimentary
reading matter in our public schools
was folly discussed. It was the general
consensus of opinion that the children
are illy supplied with good reading mat
ter suitable to their grades," while the
book shelves of our stores are groaning
under their load ot suitable books cheap
enough to be within the reach of all.
"There are over 4.000 children of
school age in this county, and only a
small per cent, of them are supplied
with school literature suitable to their
ages. This is certainly a most deplor
ably condition to ixist In a land of
plenty. Let us remove this evil and be
gin now." - -

SIMON SAYS "WIGGLE WAGGLE..
The Question at Last Settled and Oregon
lias Another Senator,
The senatorial question is at last set
tled. Immense crowds thronged tha
state house to witness the election of
Joseph Simon as United States senator.
He has realized the hopes and ambitions
of a life time. Michell stated that Cbr-
bett had withdrawn, and Biowuell mada
a splendid nominating speech in which,
he referred to Simon as "The Little
Napoleon of the Republican Party of
Oregon." The vote stood: Simon 64;
Kincaid 23; Bennett 2; Kuykendall
absent. Simon's election creates a va
cancy In the state senate.

The election of State Senator Simon to
the United St ites sanatorahip will create
a vacancy in Mu'tn)u.uh county's rep
resentation in the state senate that it
will be desirable to fill before the regular
session next winter. Mr. Simon will
serve through the special session, which
will end next Saturday at the least, re

and he will then go to Washington and
take the oath of office as United States
senator. His resignation as state sena
tor must be filed before he can take his
seat as United States senator.
The resignation will be filed with the
governor, whose duty it will then be to
issue to the sheriff a writ fjr a special
election in Multnomah county to fill the
vacancy. Instead of using the heavy
machinery of primary .elections and
county conventions to nominate candi
dates to be voted for at the special elec.

committees of the various parties enti
tled to representation on the ticket to
make their respective nominations and
