Wednesday's Daily.
The Umatilla homo Is receiving a new
coat today, tot of many colore, bat
hite paint. Nothing improves the ap
pearance of a buildiDg more than a freeh
coat of paint.
Two days of special meetings will be
held at the Salvation Army hall Satur
day and Sunday, conducted by Staff
Captain and Mr. Willis from Portland.
Everybody invited.
Dr. Geisendorffer who was called to
Wamic on account of the serious illness
of Mrs. Frank Woodcock, who is well
known here, returned last nigh- and re-
parts her condition much improved.
Gjo, Purser, a deck hand on the Reg
nlator, etopped off at White Salmon
Monday, and yesterday when he boarded
the boat bound for Portland on a wed
ding trip, he was accompanied by an
assistant Purser.
When the Regulator goes down to as
sist in escorting the boys up the river,
there'll not be a steamer in the cquadron
that will present a more swell appear
ance, for she'll be decorated to suit the
queen's taBte. Ernest Jensen will un
derstand just how to tog her op, and A.
M. Williams & Co. have consented to
let him superintend the work.
M.K. Thompson, who assaulted Breen
it Ketchum's ranch Monday and was
put in jail for failure to furnish bail, paid
over his $15 and was discharged last
evening. It is too bad that such petty
cases should be brought np end a jury
trial had, thus putting the county to so
much expense. If possible they should
be settled out of court or with a mini
mum expense to the county.
M. F. Boyles and Tim Brown arrived
at Oregon City, Saturday, from Eastern
Oregon with a band of horses. They
mads the trip by the Barlow road, and
lay they are the first to come over that
road this season. Mr. Boyles reports
that there is more or less snow for a
dutance of forty miles. Boyles and
Brown had difficulty in Retting through
placet where the tnow lay twelve feet
deep. The snow seems to be melting
very slowly at the summit.
The hot springs and various camping
places along, the Columbia will not be
overlooked by Oregonians this year.
Mrs. Jewett has made many improve
ments in tier summer resort at White
Salmon, and fur some time past she has
bad application enough from Portland
people to fill her house. The resorts at
Wind river bid fair to receive their share
of patronage also. W. O. Hadley is now
engaged in building a hotel at the Car
son hot spring, just back of Sprague,
I) ifh wi'l no doubt attract many, as
good accommodations aro what has been
lacking to make the hot springs better
Patronized.
"No more high water this year." So
says the report from Portland today.
The Columbia is coming up a little, and
taids at 41 ; but we are now safe, as the
fivers above are liaing rnly slightly.
Yesterday's bulieti n says that cooler
weather prevails oyer the Columbia.
The temperature in tho mountains was
near the freezing point during the night.
This cool period, the coolest for two
wks, will check the melting of the

the rivers before the next warm period
Mn melt sufficient snow to cause them
to rise ngnin. Warmer weather will
prevail for several days, from Wednes
day, but as it Is thought that the snow
is ijflf the lower levels, there appears to
no (lunger of any further material
rise.

Moscow and stopped for wattr a thorough

Thursday'! Daily
Today's report says warmer weather
for several days. Also that the Colum
bia will begin falling tonight and fall
until Tuesday. It now stands at about
40.
The wool market is exceptionally live
ly today, and we understand for the
first, time this season clips have sold to
day at 15 cents. So far not more than
13,'j' cents had been paid.
The leading question ie, "Where are
you going to spend the 4th?" Many are
talking of j lining in the fun at Dnfar;
others at Goldendale ; while a great mauy
will go to Portland. A good way to do
would be to board the Regulator and
enjoy a picnic along the river banks.
Many have decided to celebrate iu this
manner.
Albany will donate a Bite and get a
$250,000 saw mill employing 500 men.
We mention this fact simply as a news
item ; but if our citizens care to take it
as a hint, it will not hurt our feelings in
the least.
Mrs. Ida Crawford, the trained nurse,
whose health bas compelled her to be
away from the city much cf the time,
has returned and may be found at Mrs.
Nelson's on the comer of Third and
Liberty streets.
Among the many beautiful gifts which
the bride and groom received last night
was a handsome basket of the roost
handsome flowers, which was presented
by the Elks, Mr. Williams being a
member of that order. :
The street sprinkler is doing splendid
work in reducing the dust on the streets,
and have you noticed just how well it
succeeds in striking the cross walks full
force? Never mind, just let two or
three ladies pass over them with their
trains and they'll soon dry them up, act
ing in the capacity of a mop.
Monday, the 3d, being the anniversary
of the battle of Santiago, the leading
banks all over the United States will
close on that date. Therefore French &
Co. and the FirBt National, of this city,
will also observe it as a holiday. As
Tuesday is the 4th, that will make two
holidays in succession when no business
can be done with our banks.
We understand that Moro will be the
terminus of the Columbia Southern
Railway for some time to come. The
management have found the construc
tion of a line south much more difficult
and expensive than anticipated, besides
being asked the most exorbitant figures
for right of way through ranches on the
route. Owing to these conditions the
C. S. company have come to the con
clusion not to extend their line further
south for the present. Moro Leader.
.The father of Dnrrant, the San Fran
cisco murderer, was employed in one of
tho large shoe factories there. The
other employes demanded that he be
diicliarged and his employers had to
let him go. All the factoiies have bren
closed against him, and he and his wife
and daughter are living in poverty. He
is trvlng to get money from England to
take the family back there, whence they
camo.
IX-finlte arrangements have not as
yet been made tor the excursion down
the river to meet the boys; and it will
probably by Impossible to go intode
tails before the river recedes and it can
be determined whether tho steamer can
go through the locks. Many have
questioned regarding the rate that will
be charged for the e xcursion. It will
likely be about $2 50 for the round trip
to St. Helens, and a dollar of that will
go to tho tntcrtiiinunnt fund in Port
land. However, tho vrlce has not as
yet been fixed.

Flax culture in Oregon is destined to
become one of the leading industries.
The Moio Leader says: A sample of
flax comes from J. W. Daagherty, grown
on Lis farm at Do Mots Springs. This
Bas is about twenty inches long at
present, but bat not come to its full
growth. Persons who are authorities on
flax culture, says Mr. Daoghcrty, wiil
harvest twenty boehela to the acre from
hitid-acre tract. Allowing a dollar a
bushel Jor the flaxseed, the superiority
of flax over wheat in this case as a
source o income; to the farmer is very
plainly demonstrated.
There are stiil several sidewalks in
our city which are a disgrace. Of course
we would cot be so small as to mention
the numerous chuck holes which are
evidently left to allow the ratter to ply
Ins trajj, nor tlu planks which when
you step on one end, fly up aud salute
you. But we are now referring to the
walks which have Wen ratified upby
property owners, who have not takeu
the trouble to put tew boards in. but
instead, have naiied 'bias" pieces on
top covering the pit falls and iu their
pla.e le aving a splendid stumbling block
whereon to stub tho toe and light on all
fores. Indeed, there are many such
things in The Dalles which would induce
one to keep sober for fear of running up
against them. If even that much good
were accomplished by their presence, it
might bo an excuee for the patching
business; but we have noticed no such
results, and therefore call the attention
ot the maruhal and property owners to
the neglect.
Friday's Daily.
Prof. R. R. Allard, who bas been
principal of the Hood Kiver schools, has
accepted tho priucipalehip of the Dufur
school.
Nothing definite has been heard re.
garding the rumor that the O.R & N.will
put an opposition Doat on the river as
soon as the river recedes sufficient to ad
mit of passing through the locks.
Call at the lawn of the Congregational
church tonight and let the Junior En
ueavorers serve vou with a plate ol ice
cream. It will cost but ten cents, and

of Portland
The workmen were somewhat delayed
in getting the Oregon Telephone line
into Antelope, but last night the wire
was stretched as tar as that little city
and we can now talk to our fuends there
over that line.
A pa'rlotio aarvica will be held by the
Christian Endetvor Society of the
Christian church next Sunday evening
at 8 o'clock. Addresses, songs, etc., ap
propriate for the occasion will be given,
and the general public are cordially in
vited to attend.
Dr. Locke, formerly pastor ot the
Taylor street church in Portland, but
for over a year pastor of Central church
in San Francisco, baa been called to a
church in one of the largest cities in
New York, and will probably leave for
that place in a few weeks.
It has been thought advisable to make
the dining room of the hotel as attractive
as possible on the morning of the arrival
of the editors. Therefore all ladies who
will donate flowers (choice ones) for this
purpose are requested to leave them at
the Umatilla House Monday evening.
Sheriff Kelly arrived on yesterday's
afternoon train from Sumpter, He had
iu charge Joseph Ganterman, who was
arrested for obtaining money under false
pretense, having passed a bogus check
at Chas. Frank's saloon some months
since. He had a hearing before Justice
Bayard this afternoon and was bound
over in the sum of 500.
At the time the volunteers left for the
Philippines, Third regiment O. N.G.,
was disrupted and as far as the regiment
is concerned, was a thing of the past. The
adjutant-general has now placed on the
retired or veteran list its officers, among
w hom are J. M. Patterson, of Wbfco,
A. Varney, formerly of The Dalles, and
H. II. Hiddell, of this city.
The state military board is consider
ing the advisability of making the day
of the arrival of the volunteers a state
holiday. When the date of their ar
rival is definitely known, a meet
ing will be held and a decision arrived
at regarding the matter. This will be
the best of news to those who have been
scheming to get away from businees
duties on that day.
It may be a fact that the race of
"noble red mtn" is diminishing rapid
ly; but ono would never judge such to
be the case by looking around the streets
of The Dalles the paBt few days. The
town is faiily "painted red" with their
presence, and if all the small pappooses
w hich are so much inc idence at present,
shy clear of the happy hunting grounds
there'll he enough of the race left to fill
the reservations for some time to come.

A letter rtc.ived by friends In this
city tells of the appointment of Frank
Xewe mie as clerk of the Tark hotel at
Mt. Clemens, the finest hotel in the
state of Michigan. Many will remember
Mr. Newcome well, he having spent
sometime in The Dalles and was for
many years a resident of Wasco county,
having stork interests with his brothers
near Ridgeway. Aa Mt. Clement it a
health resort it will be just the place for
Mr. Newcouie, whose health wat much
impaired when be iart visited this city.
During the entile season Astoria lias
evidently b.-en catchirg ali the sjihuon
in the river. At any rate so me bo !y has
been etiticii'g the succors into their
traps, seines, or whatever they may be,
for none of them have succeeded in
making their appearance in tho wheels
t The Dal!es. In vain have the fijher
men here kept their wheels runninir.
for very few have condescended to give
us even a pausing glance. At Astoria
UVdues lay the Uuhermen came up from
the lower river loaded with fish, and
steelheads continue to increase.
Fvery once in awhile the people of
Oregon, who are so situated that they
have a good view of Mt. Hood, imagine
that mountain has again taken np the
bad habit of smoking, and declare they
saw a column ot smoke issuing from it.
However, Mt. Adams is seldom accused
of a like offense ; but this morning many
residents of this city were attracted to a
column of smoke around the summit,
which seemed to be curling around just
as if coming from it. As there certainly
can be no fores, fires at pros -Dt to cause
it there was quite a little speculation as
to what it was.
There m no mistake but that the em
ployes at the laundry will have nn op
portunity of celebrating on tho Fourth.
A few mornings linco w hen Mr. Mac
Allister sat down at his desk in that
establishment a document met his gaze,
which upon inspection proved to be a
"round robin." It was a petition from
the employes for a cessation of duties on
onr nation's birthday, which was so
worded that it could not fail to accom
plish the end desired. Tho names be
ing signed in a circle it was impossible
to tell who was tho promoter of the
scheme. No doubt the manager in
tended thev should celebrate any way.
but this settled the matter.
You cannot enter the Umatilla Housd
now without being greeted by the sweet
strains of music; not the "old songs"
either, but the very latest airs. 'Tis not
the musical voice of Jud, for fish don't
sing; nor the baritone of the genial
clerk, for Rog at present bas something
else to think about. If the night clerk's
name were spelled with P, instead of B,
one might think it is Patty; neither
can it be Patricio McNeal for there are
no Irish airs put on. The strains emi
nates from the bar room, where is placed
an automatic muBic box bought from
Jacobsen this morning. It is one of a
superior make and is worked somewhat
on the plan of a nickel-in-the-slot ma
chine. It will play any number of airs
without changing the discs, the indi
cator controlling the machine aud the
tunes it plays. It is not only a fine
musical instrument, but a nice looking
piece of furniture.
Excnralon to California.

cational Association, the Southern Pa
cific Company (Shasta route) will make
$35 round trip rate to Los Angeles, by

The Dalles Chronicle is giving our
morning contemporary credit for that
rtcent suggestion of ours to the peace
commission. If The Chronicle had
printed the article without credit to any
one it wouldn't be so bad but for ns to
furnish feathers for the nest of t lie morn

Timcr-Monnlaineer clipped an article
from tho Statesman, too. But its course
was not quite so reprehensible as that of

article to anybody . W. W. Statesman.
Tho Times-Mountaineer evidently
thought it would not be necessary to put
a credit on any of tho Statesman's

United In Marriage I.aat Wednesday.
Tburaday's Dally.
Never in the history of The D.tlles has
there been a wedding of two young peo
ple about whom more inteiest has been
centered, than in that solemnized last
night, when Mr. Edward M." Williams
led from the altar, as Ids wife, Miss
Elizabeth Sampson, eldest daughter of
Mr. Frank Sampson, of thin city. Both
having made this tiieir home for many
years und both having occupied most
prominent places in our city, it was
natural that they held the kindest
thoughts and heartfelt best withes at
this important step in their lives.
The Congregational church, w here the
ceremony was performed, was beauti
fully transformed for the happy occasion
bv a great profusion of palms, ferns and
white lilies, and the scene was one ol
beauty and impreseivenepa, as to
the playing of the "Bridal Ctiorus" from
Lohengrin, by Prof. Birgfeld, the bridal
proceesion (nteiedthe church. I irst
came tho ushers, Uarl Williams and

bridesmaid, Misses Clara and Florence

dressed in pii.k organdie, end beaiirg in

of tho Kpucopal marriage service
nttered by Kev, D. V. Poling, of the
Congregational church, the care of the
daughter for all time to come was trans
ferred from her father to that ol her
huiband. During the entire ceremony
Prof. Birgfeld at the organ rendered
sweet and impressive music.

profusion of fbwers. The color scheme
in the front parlor was entirely in pink,
the walls being so covered that they rep
resented a bower of roses, while deep
red roses in great profusion gave to the
dining room an appearance of great
beauty. In an adjoining room the
decorations were confined to blue, and
here weie placed the many beautiful and
appropriate presents, w hich showed the
nppieciation of a large circle of friends.
At 10 o'clock the guests sat down to
an elaborate wedding supper, the bridal
party occupying a table at which the
decorations were principally of sweet
brier combined with sweet peas and
pink streamers of ribbon.
Many kind words aud wishes were
expressed for the happiness and pros
perity of the newly married couple, and
with great interest the wedding cake
was cut. Fortune decreed to Miss Pearl
Williams the ring it contained, while
the bride'a bouquet was caught by Mise
Clara Sampson.
Just as the supper was ended the
sweet strains of music were heard
coming from the band which gave a de
lightful serenade to the participants in
the happy event.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams left on the
11:43 train for an extended wedding
jurney, expecting to be away till Sep
tember. They will visit many places in
the far East, especially iu New York and
Massachusetts. If nil the good wishes
by which they are followed are vouch
safed, their future life will be one of
unalloyed happiness.
