Boise people ire hppy. That city is
to be placid on the inaia line of the
Oreg-on Short Line providing they can
raise a boras of 1200,000, and they claim
they can.
One might imagine this wts May day.
The weather is certainly perfect. No
better could beatked, and if it continues,
our peoplo will all be advertising for
summer boarders.
The applicants for connty teachers'
certificates fifteen in number finished
tbeir examinations yesterday afternoon
and the result will be published Monday.
There were no applicants for state

Last night at 10:25 o'clock Cordelia
Hagan, wif'3 of James Hagan, died of
blood poisoning at her home near the
garrison. She was 29 years of age, and
leaves a husband and 3-year-old son.
The funeral will take place from the
Cotholic church tomorrow afternoon at
2 o'clock.
An exchange says that a certain news
paper printed an item to the effect that
a certain r. sident, whose name it did
not give, bad better stop kissing his
hired girl, or he might be found out.
Twenty-seven men called on the editor
and immediately stopped their paper;
and accused him of Interfering in th?ir
domestic affaire.
The showers of rain during tho week
have seriously interfered with heading
and will cause some delay to threshing
crews that were to begin operations the
first of next week. Grain seems to be
better than was expected, and if tho hot
spell in July had let it alone this section
would have broken the record on crops.
Dufur Dispatch.
Marshal Hughes does not enjoy dis
turbing any one's slumbers, bnt when
he finds the sidewalks obstructed by a
lodger, he is liable to disturb the spirit
of his dreams. And so J. Graham, who
got in the wrong berth yesterday after
noon, soon found himself in jail to sober
op. He was fined (5, but refusing to
pa; is now celebrating in the cooler.
It is not known to what extent grain
has been Affected by the rain, but It is
not thought that any injury was done.
From the fact that straw is not tall or
heavy this year, standing grain will be
able to withstand a considerable amount
of rain. Heading and threshing, bow
ever, will be delayed for a day or two
until grain sufficiently drjs. Of course
farmers were decidedly uneasy for fear
of more ram but there should be no
further cause of apprehension as the
weather report for today reads "fair;
-warmer." W. W. Union.
It is to be regretted that the hot
springs at Wind river cannot he better
utilized. Everv one who comes up from
there tells of the healing properties of
the water and what a blessing it
might he if the property were but in the
hands of some one who would improve
it and provide a suitable place for
visitors to stay. As it is, the owners re
fuse to sell and also to make any im
provements themselves. The fare is
very poor and the bath houses miserable.
We firmly believe it is ahead of Bingham
Springs and on a par with Glenwood
were the right means used to utiliza it.
It is always said that bad news spread
rapidly. 8uch, however, was not the
case with thatof the Mitchell fire, which
occurred a week ago yesterday. Today
the news Is received for the first time.
In slowness is accounted for from the
fact that the town is 120 miles from the
fiver, which if the nearest railroad
point. The fire started in an old barn,
here it is supposed some children were
Playing with matches. At first it was
feared that tho fire was Incendiary, but
tl'is impression has been removed. Ten
to twelve buildings were destroyed, of
which four or five were stores, one a
hotel, one a livery stable, and some
a loons.
Jurt to show that Dalles people know
good thing when they see it and
re backed by the Intelligent clast of
other cities, here is what the East Ore
onlan says of "Lovj and Law" as
Played by the 8haw company: "It was
on of the cleverest things ever done on
the stage in Pendleton. The word clever
n'ually applies to a single actor, rather
than to an entire play. But, this one,
'n its writing as well as in its rendering
by the company, its ensemble, may be
referrid to at clever. The members of
the company were well cast. Not one
unable to handle his part, and this
insured a balanced production through
ont. It was commonly remarked that
very actor on the stage was about as
good at any other on tLl tccasion, to
U tdaptel wat erch for the part
assigned."
Honor to whom honor it due, and
iuii uemg oor policy we desire to cor
rect a mistake in regard to the com
panies which were foremost in the
performance of duty at yrtterday't fire.
Instead of Jackson company we should
have said that the Coiumbias assisted
the Ml. Hood, although the former were
on hand later; and also that the Hook
and Ladder company was on hand and
did some good work in their line of
duty. We are also informed that the
force of water was as much as could
have been expected under the clrcuin
stauccs, the hose being attached to a
plug 550 feet down a pretty steep grade,
making it impossible to get a very
powerful force. The force looked small
tothoee wh are nsed to the a. reams
which are obtained below the blutf.
And dow the Columbia Southern bobs
up serenely, ai.d, according to the Dufur
Di patth, The Dulles is soon to be a
thing of the past. From the number of
times we have ennk into oblivion and
m.-tde our appearance on the tun notch
again, tho name of our city should be
changed to "Phoenix." . By the way,
that would re a solution of Tha Dalles
Dallas -problem. The Dufur Dispatch
says: "Late last night we learned that,
Moore Bros., bankers of Moro, and the
Columbia Southern Eailroad Company
had purchased 2000 acres of laud at
Cross Hollows, and that it was the in
tention of the company to build large
feed yards and warehouses and make
that the terminus of the road. If such
report be truo it will greatly effect The
Dalles, not only as a shipping point but
as a trading point also."

Sheriff Kelly was engaged today in
selling Wasco county property which
was held for delinquent taxes on the '97
roll. The county secured most of the

We are pleased to notice that Lewis
Porter is again able to attend to his
duties at the livery stable, he having

being confined to his room.
The friends of Mrs. E. Hill, whose
life for the past few days has been
despaired of, will learn with ma. in satis
faction that she is considered much
better and recognized her husband and
friends this morning.
Workmen are engaged today n tear
ing down the old Lusher house, on
Fourth street, where S. Wilkerson will
erect a new residence. This is one of
the oldest residences in the city; but
must make way for the changes which
must needs come with the growth of a
city.
The Goldendale Agriculturist tells of
an accident to Harold, the young sou of
Mr. and Mrs. A. M. McLeod, formerly of

accidental explosion of some gunpowder.
One side of bis face was pretty badly

Mr. Geo. E. Stewart is in a poeition to
receive one or two pupils in shorthand
(Ben Pitman system) for the coming
fall. Mr. Stewart has had a wide ex
perience in teaching and writing short
hand during the past ten years, and is
thereby well qualified to give thorough
instructions in this interesting pro
fession. A pleasant feature of last evening's
performance was the presentation to Mr.
Shaw by the Chicamaugua Circle, No. 1,
ladies of the G. A. R., of a handsome
steamer rug made at the Pendleton
woolen mills. It was in recognition of
the offer made by Mr. Shaw of the
services of his band at the court
house. E.O.
Mrs. Geo. St. John, who has spent
several months in The Dalles left this
morning for her home in Southern Ore

mother, Mrs. R. Lusher, who having
sold her property In this city, will make
her home with her daughter. Mrs.
Lusher is one of the old residents of The
Dalles and it was with difficulty that
she was persuaded to leave the city for
a new home.

The urd. nance against cows runuing
at large is being enforced strictly, as
one f our dairymen ditcoveied this
mnruing. U ie r.f his cows had bet n
t ut in the pound when found running
about the c:ty. i nJ be proceeded to that
place and took the animal out. He was

to pay the f 1 for the release of the cow,
but the costs of his arreet.

putting in a new glass.
Aud now thoee who were compelled to
remain at home from the seaside and
camping places are congratulating them
selves that they "had the good taste" to
stay at home, while those who are pay
ing $14 a week board at the seaside are
getting a bath without going in tho
ocean, and paringdearfor it. The hotel
keepers at these resorts are "sick of
livin''and areatoata with theelements,
for although we will surely have another
eeigo of hot weather, it cannot last long
enough to justify "guests remaining dur

Among the conveniences in the smokiog
saloon Is a -a riting iU.nk and writing ma
terial, with the O. R. & N. stamp upon
it. The postal cards are especially
novel, having printed thereon five small
views along the Columbia river. These
make splendid souvenelrs, and are just
the thing a tourist would wish to send
back to friends in the East. If Oregon
is not advertised it is not the fault ot its
transportation companies.
A year ago today tho Mays & Crowe
block and that on the opposite side of
the street were in ashes, presenting an
appearance tliut would dishearten the
most eanguine and cause them to predict
anything rather than that the desolate
place Bhould bo transformed as it is to
day. About midnight on the night of
the 14th the fire started and in the space
of a few hours the splendid hardware
store of Maya & Crowe and all surround
ing buildings for more than a block were
laid low. Scarcely can one realize that
but a short year has paesed sinco the
conflagration, when upon looking around
they view one of the finest, (if riot the
finest) hardware store on the coast, and
all about it good buildings, mak
ing it the center of the business portion
of the city. This is bnt another proof of
the aggreeeivtnees of some of our busi
ness men and the Phenix-like procliv
ity of The Dalles.
Will We Continue Patriotic?
Editob Chroniclb :
The rifonlfl of The Dulles have shown
by the hearty welcome extended to our
soldier boys that a genuine feeling of
true patriotism has hold of them.
Now after the creetine is over, let
not that feeling wave, but by those little
acts that go to make up groat ones,
bow that the feeling Is deeper than
simply an excited greeting.
Can we not find a nines here and there.
where work can be found for willing
hands?
When the uniform is laid off let us
till rccogniza tbeiu as our soldier boys,
'Oreiron's nride." While we should do
this with our own boys, that duty ex
tends farther.

Those of us who have for a few months
or years at most, wandered in die tance
lands among the most pleasing environ
ments, and then upon our return felt
the thril of pleasure and the heart beat
with rapture as the familiar scenes oi
homo sweet home burst upon our view
can have even then but a very faint con
ception of what must have been the feel
ing of the twenty-five bravo soldier lads
who stood on the upper deck of the Reg
ulator last Saturday evening and caught
a glimpse of the dear old hills surround
ing them, the picturesque little city on the
banks of the old Columbia, the sea of
anxious faces ready to welcome them
home again from a foreign shore and
felt The Dalles bretzas which wafted a
welcome. True, they have received
greeting upon greeting since they Cist
landed on the shores of our sister state ;
but what does that compare with the
heart-felt welcome of kindred nnd
friends?
There were tears In many eyes as our
trusted friend, the good steamer Regu
lator, warned us of their approach, and
the many whistles, anvils and bells
answered buck our greeting and told in
unmistakable tones of the welcome they
were to receive.
With the exception of tho militia, the
U. A. R., W. R. C, the blind and the
reception committee, all others were
barred from the dock, save the fifty little
girls who carried flowers and banners
with which to greet them, and presented
every one with a bequet. But every
available space near was crowded.
After a short delay in landing the boys
finally marched off the steamer, as the
strain! of "Home Sweet Homo" were
borno to them from the band, and cheer
after cheer went up, On the dock they
were greeted by relatives and friends,
and as the former clasped them and
with streaming eyes welcomed them the
captain's wife said, s the tears rolled
down her cheeks, "I have wept for very
joy till my eyes ache over such affecting
scenes as these."
Soon the line of march was formed,
and the parade,led by Marshal Wheuldon
and his aides, followed by Mayor Kuek
andG. C. Blakeley proceeded on the first
route which bad been planne-d, halting
at the banquet hall. Hero tliere was
another hand-shaking; but finally, after
prayer by Rev. Wood, all were seated,
and soon the volunteers voluntarily
scattered the chicken and other good
things as successfully as they did the
Filipinos. The W, R. C. deserve much
praise for the splendid banquet served,
and the manner iu which it was dis
posed of betokened appreciation.
The time from that on till 8:3t was
spent with friends and in general re
ception. AT THE ARJfOBY.
Armory hall has been beautifully dec
orated many times in the past, but upon
no occasion has it been more approp
riately arranged than on that of the re
ception, which took place at 8 :30 in the
evening. Under the skillful hands of
Lieut. R. A. Spivey, and a squad of
soldiers from Company D. the ceiling
had been draped in bunting which
formed a tent, the sides being raised and
displaying scenery beyond. On the
sides of the hall were hung pictures of
the battle-ships, and heroes of the bat
tles, while flags and red white and blue
bunting were tastefully draped about
the wall.
On the stage were seated the mayor,
Capt, Wells, Lients. Teller and Povey,
several of our own volunteers, the speak
ers of the evening and members of the
G. A. 11.
After the hall was filled with an
enthusiastic audience, and cheer npon
cheer had been given as Capt. Wells,
Lieut. Telfcr, and each of the boys in
turn were seated, the program was
opened with prayer by Rev. Wool.
F. W. Wilson, who had pro n t.-d the
boys when they It ft that upon their
return rousing reception should be
given, was then introduced by the
mayor and in a manner peculiar to him
self, told of the Joy at their return, the
anxiety with which their (every move
ment was followed, and the satisfaction
tbeir victories occasioned. Hit tribute
to the fallen heroes who failed to return,
and whose names were engraven on
tablet which stood on the stage, thuily,
"la memory of William Fields, Henry
0 FIaherty, Charles Rubart," vat elo
quent and most touching.
Capt. Wells, in response, told of the
esteem In which be held the members
01 Company L, and of the bravery ot
The Dal'es boys; of the feeing of
couiradship which existed, and which
he hoped would not be broken though
they be separated.
Lieut. Telfer was called upon and
paid a glowing tribute to our boys, t.ty
ing that he had overheard Col. Summers
say that Company L could take care of
itself. And at another time that Com
pany L could get along without officers.
He also said that a good soldier would
make a good son, a good employe a good
husband, and advised the young ladles
to embrace the opportunity.
Prof. Lenders welcomed them in be
half of the public school, of which some
were students. He recited how the
pupils had watched eagerly for every
line of news concerning thoin, and how
their victories encouraged them. He
paid a high tilbute to their valor and
said he could hut say of them, "Here
they are. Match them."
The greatest excitement prevailed as
Walter Reavis was called for and after
ward Earl Sanders, and they could
scarcely begin speaking for tho loud
applause which greeted them. Each
told of his j y at being home once more
and of how they thought of dear ones
while on that far off shore.
Sargeant Edwards, of Portland, made
a ueat Utile speech, and closed by in
forming the Dalles girls that If they
took advantage of Lieut. Teller's advice,
and there were not enough Dalles boys
to go around, to keep those of Portland
in mind.
The speeches were Interspersed with
tolos by Rev. Poling and Mies Myrtle
Michel!. The former sang "The Roll
Call," a touching selection well fitted to
the occasion, while the latter sang "The
Oregon Volunteers," and as an encore
"Just as the Sun Went Down."
At the close tho audience sang "Amer
ica" again and again, until it was sung
with enthusiasm befitting tho occasion.
The floor was then cleared and to the
music of Birgfeld's orchestra dancing
was indu'ged till midnight. The soldier
boys have lost none of their love for
this popular pastime, Bud made tiie
most of the opportunity.
Altogether the reception was a great
success, and the Dalles boys, as well ns
their visitors, were much pleased with
the welcome they received in The
Dalles. They will never forget it; nor
will we, who consider this an occasion
which will go down in the history of our
city.

Hurrah! Hurrah!
There is nothing the matter with Ore
gon and the Oregon volunteer!
Only the brave deserve the fair. Our
friend Cradlebaugh adds: "For only the
brave can live with them."
The kodak fiends are on parade, and
as turn about is fair play, the boys will
now be shut. Not by Filipinos, either.
Remember, girls, the boys are not
arm-less, if they did leave their "arms"
in San Francisco. All's fair in love and
war.
Here at last the lesson has been
taught an.) learned that you cannot
chain the englp, you dare not harm tbe
dove; but every gate barred to. hate will
open wide to love.
The Salvation Army was prominent
in the parade, and wore the red, white
and blue in profusion. Among (lie
volunteers were two of their number,
who made brave soldiers.
Of the many mascots which the boys
in the different companies brought home,
none was more a favorite than that of
Company L. "Tip," a bright little pug
dog, which belongs to Chris Lowe, of
this city, and which he took to Manila
with him and left with the company
when ho returned. He was in every
skirmish, march and encounter, and in
the battle at San Antonio be saw several
chickens fly np and ran out on the firing
lines where the bullets were thickest to
capture them. Indeed, the boys say he
would bring them chickens when they
had nothing to eat. He knew every
member ci the company and would give
no heed to any one outside. The boys
all love him and parting with him was
like parting with a friend, who had been
with them through thick and thin.
Somehow on every suspicions occasion
and in everything of credit to our city,
our tried and true friend, the Regulator
line, figures consplcioualy and never
leaves us in tbe lurch. Therefore what
more characteristic than that when the
newt reached us the boys were on
their way borne, the company should
immediately send dispatch offering
them the hospitality of the boat and
transportation up the river, with meals
furnished. This they accepted gladly
and to in the history of ooeof the great
est events in connection with our city,
the good old Regulator will fill a prom
inent place. Not contentedwith that,
and deemingit a happy Idea that at many
of their company at could thonld ac
company them up tbe river and receive
a share In the welcime here, tley ex
tea led them the, tame privileges and
transportation back today, wbicb waa
accepted by about twenty-five, and was
one of tbe most pleasing features of the
occasion. AH are extremel grateful to
the D. P. A A. X. Co. for their morw
than generosity iu this regard.
The gaily attire of the Regulator at tbe
steamed into dock, laden with ber prec
ious burden, was befitting the occasion,
and presented a charming picture to
those who awaited her coming. She
was "decked in fl.igi and streamers gay
in honor of reception day." Alt around
her were flying the international naval
code of signals, the banners which spoke
(or the welcome of the various societies
of our city, and our own "Glory" tower
ing over all. Inside was also draped the
cilorsof our country entwined about
pictures of the battleships, our heroes
and scenes from the field ot conflict.
Not only did the boat itself speak elo
quently of our greeting, tut on board
her were those who in every way possi
ble showed that their welcome wat gen
erous and the trip waa one of gladness
from the time they were mot until they
lauded here. And as every small sta
tion was reached the residents and those
who were camplng'uear thronged to the
beach and made all sorts of demonstra
tion, filing oil fire crackers, revolvers
and everything available. Iu one iso
lated spot a patriotic old gentleman ap
peared on the bluff, holding in his band
a long pole with a flg on the end, which
he waa waiving heartily. Each sign
from the beach was answered w ith a sig
nal Irom the steamer.

A Portland railroad man, who has for
many years been connected with the
passenger department of the O. R. & N.
Co., is authority for the statement that
utter demoralization exists among the
employes of the different Union Pacific
feeders and connections in that city.
The Urion Pacific is about to obtain
control of the Oregon Short Line and
O. R. A N., which, through a part of the
rystein, have betetofore been operated
under independent management.
All these lines maintain general pat
senger, freight, ticket aud traveling
agents besides a largo force of clerks in
their Portland offices. The result of the
consolidation of interests will merge the
whole of each department of the several
roads Into one general department,
