Ianked on Hood River.
William O'Brien helped himself to an
vercoat belonging to Mr. Fitzpatrick of
Tygh Valley this morning. Mr. Fitz
patrick had laid the coat near the door
of McFarland & French's store for
few moments, when O'Brien took it,
He was promptly arrested by Depnty

ventle as a kitten, and gives promise of
.-great speed. He can show a three inin-
ote gait easily. He was aired by Rock
land Jr., dam, Mountain. Queen ; ajgood
strain of blood and he shows it. In color
he is a dark bay, and measures almost
fifteen hands and a half. We predicts he
will be heard from in the next year or two,
A special train passed through last
night at 11 o'clock carrying about 200
men on their way from Kansas City to
the Sound to work on some railroad
presumably . the Union Pacific. The
train stopped here about two hours giv
ing the men a chance to eat, which they
availed themselves of to some purpose.
The men were brought out by a Mr,
Shock, who no doubt knew where he
was going but did not care to give it
away.-
Mr. W. F. Hedgepath of Prinevill
. who has been in Page county Iowa for
the last eighteen months arrived here
this morning on his way home. He
glad to get back, and like all other Pa
cific coast people, cannot be satisfied to
live in the east. Mr. David Elliott also
of Prineville,, ' who has been east for
nearly two years arrived on the same
train and expresses himself to the same
effect as Mr. Hedgepath. These gentle
men tell us there i9 considerable talk
among eastern people concerning Oregon
and that we may expect a large immi
ration.
r V
Four cars -of sheep and one of hog a
were shipped to the Sound last night by
Mr. Charles Butler. '-
The, Trunk Manufactory is running
with a light force. The manager in
forms us that the business is increasing
steadily, which shows that patrons are
pleased with the company's work. As a
matter of fact they make the best trunk
of all grades, and furnish them at less
than eastern prices.
Another Fine Picture.
Mr. Eisel who painted the picture of
North Dalles and The Dalles, for Rev.
O. D. Taylor, placed another specimen
of his work in Crandall A Buyrts win
dow this morning. It is a view of our
energetic townsman's, Mr. Seufert's
place, showing the dwelling houses, sta
tion and creamery. The pirture is true
to nature and as a work of art is simply
superb. The view ia down the river,
and therefore shows a background
similar to the Dalles picture, Mts.
Adams and Hood being the limit.
The hills back of The Dalles would
be recognized anywhere by any
one who has ever lived here and
the views down the Columbia is perfect.
One thing that struck us was the diff
erence between the appearance of Suferta
place now, and five years ago. The pic
ture truthfully shows it now covered
with orchards and vineyards, neat cot
tages out-buildings, cannery station and
fences. Then it was a barren fiat and
considered almost worthless. It shows
what can be done with our soil, and points
an unerring finger of prophesy at the
future changes and improvements
near the city. The Dalles is fortunate
indeed in having its beauties transferred
to canvas by so able an artist as Mr,
Eisele, and we sincerely hope that his
brush may find further employment ere
ne leaves us.
Married.
At the residence of the brides parents
in this city Wednesday evening Dec. 17th,
Mr. J. S. Winzler, of La Grande, to Miss
Ida Sylvester, daughter of Mr. and Mrs,
Wm. Sylvester, of this city. The cere
mony was performed by Rev. Wm,
Michell.
The young couple leave for La Grande
their future home to-night followed by
the good wishes of a host of friends.
TWO OFFICKS.
One at The Dalles, One at Portland.
The Interstate Investment OomDanv
has opened officers at The Dalles, Or.,
and at 72 Washington street Portland,
for .the selling of its own property and
for the development of the manufactur
ing industries of the coast.
At present it is makin? a snecaltv of
the Bale of its North Dalles town site,
where a large shoe factorv.with a dailv
capacity of 1500 pairs of boots and shoes
has been erected, while cutting and other
initial work is being done. The formal
opening of the factory .will . take place
next week. The contracts are aimed for
a large number of cottages as homes for
the employes of the factory, churches
and echoolhouses will soon be bnilded.
Negotiations are pending for the loca
tion of one of the largest tanneries in the
united Mates, ana other large manufac
tures are contemplating the immediate
use of the great water nower, which has
so long awaited the coming of capital.
O. D. Taylor, the president and pen
eral manager of the company, resides at
The Dalles, and will give welcome and
courteous attention to any who desire
personal inspection of the property. J.
r . ixiwaras, secretary of the company,
resides in Portland, and will have imme
diate charge of the Portland office, where
full information and plats can be secured
and lots purchased. The sale of lots has
increased very rapidly in the last two
weeks, and the best class of people are
heavy purchasers.

Columbia river between North Dalles
and The Dalles will be" built before high
water is again reached as moat of the
money bas been raised.
Horticultural Notes.
' The subject of injury to the stems of
fruit trees by the sun scald has been dis
cussed for many years at our horticul
tural, meetings and in the agricultural
Eapers. Our experienced cultivators
ave advised the shading of the stems
by very low tops, the leaning of the
trees, when planted, to the south, or
the plan of top-working on stems not
liable to such injury. But I now notice
in several of our western Baners an illim
trated paper by O. F. Brandt, of Minne
sota, which outlines a plan lor protect
ing the stems so thoroughly that the
trees will live and bear bountiful crops
for at least forty years. Briefly stated
the plan is to enclose the stem and
branches the first year or two with
box filled with earth from bottom to top
with straw mulch at the base. After this
enclose the stem only with the box filled
with earth, taking all away in the spring.
If we admitted . that the plan would
work fairly well in the more even winter
climate of Minnesota, and that people
or mere wouia annually pertorm thil
work at the proper time, we can sav rosi-
tively that it will not protect stems from
sun scald in Iowa if they are from three
to nve leet in mgnt, as recommended by
Mr. Brandt. With us we are apt to
have rain and thawa in late fall, mid
winter and early spring. Even a small
amount of rain or melted sleet will be
converged by the limbs to the earth sur
rounding tne stem. This brings alter
nate wetting freezing and drying to the
stem during the dormant season, and
the bark is not in a normal condition
when the box is taken off for enduring
tne not glare of tne sun of ' spring an
summer.

Monday afternoon about 8:30 o'clock
Undertaker Harvey's gloomy wagon
drove hurriedly up to the entranrof a
well known photograph gallery and two
men carried a black coffin into the bond
ing and up to the floor in the operating
room. It was met . there by the pho
tographer and tunmber of newspaper
men, and shortly afterward a woman,
youthful 'and - beautiful, clad in cash-
and lace, with flowers at her feet
and her white hands folded peacefully
across her breast, lay m the somber box,
with, her long brown hair ' streaming
over the crumpled satin lining, aa pale
as her cream tinted skin. ....
The men stood about the coffin whis
pering aa the undertaker tonched a
flower here, a leaf there, and tacked in
a oarrfww wandering cnrl, while the
photographer moved a hand ont of its
BtiCTnaf or turned the face where the
KgSt wooldfaU npon it to a batter effect
before the lens of the camera. It was
uncanny scene, and if the sunshine
had not taken the chill off of the place
it would have been as ghostly and
ghastly as a charnel house.
When au was ready tho photographer
caught the picture on his plate and then
the bd of the affair was removed for the
friends of the family to -step forward and
takaalastlookat the body, for it im
mediately sat up in its casements, shook
all around, and jumping grace-
fully to the floor, laughed merrily and
talked cheerily of such a lark, and gare
the undertaker and photographer her
authority to perform the same sad rites
when she was dead in earnest, and not
merely flirting with the king of terrors.
Tne ruling passion, strong in death, it
will be observed. The corpse for a
minute was Miss TJTKm Lewis, the act
ress, and the pictures, when they are
done, will be striking, even if they are
not particularly cheerful. Washington
