where Prof. Ilaldwin and Frank French
were g'vini? some pbasir.g piano sebc-
lions, comprising some of the latest
catchy airs. They were ably assisted by
Charles Tvtinehain, the genial and pop
ular eten ard of the Regulator, and Chas.
Threadbare, who played the mandolins
with very pretty effect. These young
gentlemen ate abundantly possessed of
unusual talent, and judging from the
comments heard last evening, should
they appear in pnblic they would be
given a hearty reception.
The meeting of the order of Eastern
Star last evening was a ehort one, and
emerged into a reception in honor of one
of iis members, Mrs. Levi Clark, who
will soon leave to make her home in
Hood River. One of their famous ban
quets was served, and the arrangement
of the tables was particularly novel ana
pretty, being so placed as to form a star,
each point of which was decorated in
the various colors blue, red, yellow and
while, while the center was iu green
After the banquet the time was spent in
guessing games, which were greatly en
joyed. Daring the evening Mrs. Clarke
was presented with an immenee bunch
of violets.
Travelers in the East are always
pleased to find along their route in the
railway stations vie s of the wonderful
scenery aiong me Columbia river
and proud to point to them and say
these belong to our grand Columbia.
We have seen many beautiful views,
but never have we seen any that equal
those taken by Moore, of Portland, and
which are to be hung up in the Regula
tor. They are 18x22 inches in size, and
are so perfectly clear and real that every
leaf of the foliage and every waterfall
would seem to be standing out in dis
tinct view. One of Oneonta Gorge is
particularly fine, as is also that of the
falls at the Cascades. They are perfect.
The mystery of the valise which was
found along the river bank a Ehort ways
below the city about a week ago, has
been solved. It was feared that investi
gation might disclose something very
sensational a drowning or like disaster;
but it lias proven a simple case of theft.
A young lady who came up from White
Salmon about a month ago placed her
valise In the hall at a private residence
in the city, from which place it was
stolen. This morning the valise and
contents were identified ; but a man's
hat which was taken at the same time
was not among the articles found. The
tramp or whoever stole it, finding there
was nothing in the valise which would
be of value to him, cached it among the
rocks on the river bank by way of get
ting rid of it and covering bis crime.
Thursday's Dally.
Mrs. General Maud B. Booth, wife of
the leader of the Volunteers of America,
will arrive in Portland Tuesday, April
4th, on the Southern Pacific train from
Cilifornia. She will be accompanied by
her secretary, Miss Jennie Hughes, and
Lieutenaut-Colonel W. Duncan.
The peach trees are beginning lo put
forth their blossoms in the orchards of
our city. Who said we wouldn't have
peaches?
The family of Rev. D. V. Poling is to
day engaged in moving into the residence
formerly occupied by Hugh Gourlay on
Sixth street. Mr. Gonrlay is building a
n?at little cottase adj'jiuing, Into which
his family will move when it is finibheJ.
Otis Patterson left on the afternoon
train for Portland to attend the annual
"MyBtic Banquet" to be given by the
Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite
Mason6 in that city tonight at 9 o'clock.
This is always a gieat event among the
members of this order.
During these uncertain times of the
war and the anxiety felt by relatives of
the soldier boy, many cablegrams would
be sent to the scene of action were it
not for the expense thus incurred. It is
said that every word sent to Manila
costs 2. i7. One youngman well known
in The Dalle, sent a cablegram from
Manila to bis mother in New York
which co't $32.
A meeting of the teacheis of the
public school will be held at 4 o'clock to
day, when arrangements will be made for
their trip to Dufur Saturday. Convey,
ancis have been engaged and will leave
here at 8 o'clock. The fadics of Dufur
will serve lunch at the school house up
on their arrival, and in the afternoon
the program will be carried out. Any
one interested in the educational meet
ing, and who may deslro to go, may do
soby informing Supt. Gilbert tomorrow.
The Portland Rolling Mills Company
has purchased the wreck of tho ship
(;lenmorag, which has lain high and
dry on the shore at Long Beach, Wash.,
since March. M'O. Sojourners at that
point Ihi summer will therefore be
entertained with the inht ' 'le gradual
demolition of the big bulk, which will
be taken apart and sent to Portland, to
suit? At least let the
begin its consideration.
business houses
raiiroad from.as far as The Dalles there
is a vast number of men making their
way to Huntington, or rather to the
scene of construction operations on the
line of the Northwest Railway, expecting
to get work. Some are beating their
way on the O. R. & N. while others are
tramping it, with camping outfit and
bedding on their backs. At Meacham
Sunday, there were a hundr. d or more,
with here and there a gei.uine hobo
sandwiched in. The Northwest Rail
way company bag advertised for 1,000
laborers and at the rate they are coming
the ranks will soon be filled. Baker
City Democrat.
Another evidence of the artistic taste
of Ernest Jensen is given in the arrange
ment of the Easter window at A. M
illiams' store. At one end of the
window he has placed an old fashioned
tomb made of white bunting with purple
trimming. The gates are ajar and iu
siue may ne seen a large faster egg
drawn by six beautiful white doves and
driven by an angel, who holds the silken
reins. In the mouth of one of the
doves is a green spray, betokening the
coming of spring. The sky is studded
with stars, while the remainder of the
window Is draped ln dainty summer
goods. It is a clever device representing
the opening of spring, and is also very
pretty to the view.
Much distress has been caused among
the relatives of the boys now facing the
bullets at Manila on account of the an
certainty of the names given in the list
of the dead and wounded, and the mis
takes made in the names of the com
panies. No doubt when dispatches are
received and comment is afterward given
in the Portland papers, they depend
somewhat on the official rrster for in
formation, and seeing the same name in
various regiments, often get the names
confused in that manner. Among the
list of the dead given in Monday's Ore
gonian was William W. Cook, of Com
pany L. In the notes below, the initials
were given as William E. Among The
Dalles boys who inliatcd was William
E. Cook, son of Dr. Cock, who lives
some distance in the country, and grand
son of Mrs. Kerrison. What more
natural than that the latter should
think it her boy who was killed, and
the thought almost prostrated her, until
yesterday's Oregonian gave the assur
ance that it was William M. Cook, of
Junction City, a private in Company D.
The suspense in such cases often causes
more pain than the certainty, and we
are ulad for the sake of his relatives that
their fears were unfounded.
Friday'! Dally.
W. S. Neece, of Moro, was in the city
yesterday.
Mr. L. E. Crowe is expec'.ed to arrive
home this evening.
Fotos for fun for everyone next Satur
day. Come early. Gifford.
The O. R. A N. Co. today paid to
Sheriff Kelly as taxes, 8,325.70.
Two shipments of silk waists arrived

T. M. B. Chastain, who is teacher of
the Victor school, Is in the city today.
James Fait, who has been spending a
short time with relatives in Seattle and
Sound cities, returned last night.
Messrs. T. II. Johnston, John Stevens,
Wm. Vanderpool and W. H. H. Dufur
are visitors from Dulur in the city.
A meeting of the Epworth League of
the M. E. church is called for this
evening, at which every member is re
quested to be present.
As the 3rd of the month comes on
Monday, according to a previous agree
ment entered into some time since,
collection day will bo on Tuesday, the
4th.
Forty-four head of cattle were brought
over from Camas Prairie last evening
for the Columbia Packing Company. A
portion of them were taken across the
river this morning to Curtis' pasture.
About seventeen teachers and friends
of education will leave the Academy
Park achoul stS o'clock tomorrow morn
ing for Dufur to attend the educational
meeting, which convenes from 1 till 5
o'clock tomorrow.
A partition is today being placed in
the building to be occupied by the First
X nt u ntil Bank. The east side of the
building has not as yet been rented, but
the bank will be moved Into the west
side about the first of May.
Among the list of casualties sent by
Otis yesterday is the name of Charles R.
Robert, who was slightly injured in the
leg. Among our last recruits w as Charles
R. Rubart, which It is thought must be
the one who is meant. Capt. Bartell
tells us that Rubart ii a comparative
and desires that Dalles people call -and
see them so that they mav be convinced
as to th6ir stylo.
A dispatch from Washington says
that Oregon's woun led soldier boys will
be brought homo from Manila as soon as
possible, em as therH are plenty of
tr.u.port8 there they can come at an
early date. Those able to travel will be
put on immediately. This rule prob
ably applies to those who are seriously
injured, and those who will be unable to
lurther engage in the battle. This news
will cheer many an achinar heart which
is saddened by the thought of loved
ones who need care being so far away.
Information obtained from Spokane
states that there now are twentv-four
well-developed smallpox cases in that
city. In the pesthonse there are four
teen, in a quarantined lodging-house
there are seven, and three others exist
in private houses. As there is a possi
bility of the diseaso becoming epidemic
Injjpokane, and therefore spreading to
the various places along the railroads,
would it not be well for the people of
The Dalles to cuard against its inroads
by vaccinating? Not that we wish to
cross the bridge before we reach it, but
to use the preventive instead of the
cure.
It is told that tho O. R, & N. will soon
run their overland train on such. time
as to connect with the Southern Pacific
train out of Portland in the evening,
a thing that has never been done in the
past. Heretofore, the O. R. & N. train
has arrived in Portland just after the
Southern Pacific train has left, and
there has apparently been no effort to
make a connection. This, so it is sup
posed, was due to the natural desire on
the part of the O. R. & N. management
to encourage traffic via their steamer
line to and from San Francisco, but the
new arrangement will be welcomed by
the traveling people who have long
desired it.
John S. lluoth ta be Quartermaiter.
His friends in The Dalles will be more
than pleased to learn of the commission
of John S. Booth as quartermaster of
the Oregon National Guard, with rank
of mayor. He has been connected with
the National Guard of the state, in
various capacities, for several years. In
1890 he was appointed first lieutenant
and signal officer of the Third regiment.
In 1691 he was made major of the same
regiment, which place he resigned in
1890. He wes soon appointed first lieu
tenant and commissary of subsistence of
the Third battalion. In 1S93 he was
elected captain of company G, Third
battalion, but was not appointed as
captain when the company started for
Manila.
John is fully awake in all matters in
connection with the militia of the state,
and all are gratified that his dibits in
this line have been appreciated.
At 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon Dr.
James Sutherland claimed as his bride)
Miia L'rju'a Stella Ruch, eldest daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ruoh, the wedding
ceremony being perfoimed by Rev. J. If.
Wood, of the Methodist church, at their
residence on the corner of Fouith and
Court streets.
The decoration of the parlors for tha
occasion was conspicuous for its dainti
ness, palms and potted pUnts making;
the scene an attractive one, whilo cut
flowers drooped from numerous vases.
Loheugreu's wedding march was played
by the bride's sister, Miss Lni.su Ruch,
as thu bride entered the parlor, leaning;
on the arm of her father, and accom
panied by her bridesmaid, Mms Rom
MU hell. The groom was accompanied
by W. A. Campbell, who acted as beat
man.
The bride was very pretty in a silk
gown worn by her mother on a similar
occasion thirty years ago. Over it waa
draped white moosseline de sole, with
bow knots forming dainty trimmings.
She carried an immense bunch of
bride rosebuds. The bridesmaid m
attired in light green Bilk moire and
carried pink carnations.
At 3 :30 o'clock a wedding dinner waa
served, at wh'uh the following beside;
the bride and groom were seated : Mr.
and Mrs. Geo. Ruch, Misses Louise and
lone Ruch, George Ruch, Jr., Hon. and
Mrs. John Michel), Miss Maude Michell,
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Michell, Miss
Michell, Misses Rose, Annette ami
Myrtle Michell, Miss Nellie Michell,
Miss Clara Grimes, of Portland, and Mr.
W. A. Campbell.
The large numberof handsome presents
received conveyed to the young people
the congratulations and good wiehes of
their friends, who took this means of
expressing them.
The bride, who from her infancy has
grown up in I ho Dalles, is to. well
known to its people for Tub Chboniclb
to add anything as to her sweetest of
character and womanliness. The groom.
also so well known to every resident,
having been a practicing physician here
for a number of years, needs not our
praises as to his worth and integrity.
We can only extend our share of good
wishes.
Dr. and Mrs. Sutherland wiil leave
on the evening train for their future
home in Spokane, whero the groom has
an extensive practice, and where we
trust success will attend them.

W. S. Brars, of the Pendleton roller
mills, is negotiating with representa
tives of the Siberian railway contractors
for the shipment of large quantities of
flour to be uasd by the construction
force. lie figures that the contract will
call for about $1,000,000 worth of flour
the first year.
Mr. Byara proposes to at once Increase
the capacity of hie mill from 600 barrels
to 1000 barrels a day. Lie estimates
that with this increase in capacity his
mill will be able to consume about
2,000,000 bushels of wheat annually or
ab u half the usjal maiket surplus if
the Inland Empire.
Much significance is attached to the
proposed export ot breadstufTs -to Russia,
a country which in the past has been a
heavy exporter. That there has been a
shortage in the Russian crop was known,
but it was not believed the ehortago was
so great as to necessitate such heavy im
portations. Mr. Byars looks for a great future for
the wheat industry of the coast by rea
son of the increasing Oriental demand,
as much as in consequence of the fre
quent failure in the Russian wheat
crop. Telegram.
