The Chronicle is the Only Paper in
The Dalles that Receives the Associated
Press Dispatches.
LOCAL BREVITIES.
Mr. J. C. Hayes, the surveyor from
Hood River, visited the Chronicle
office today.
Miss Caroline Davenport of Mosier
has gone to Portland to visit her sister,
Mrs. P H. Ro'unson.
Mr. Will Rand, Mrs. Sallie E. Capps
nd Mr. M. V. Harrison, of Hood River
were in the city today.
Mr. Theodore Liebe of Spokane, bio
ther of Mr. G. A. Liebe of this city,,
passed through town today on his way
to Portland. ,
There is a rumor that Jay Gould will
visit The Dalles in a few days and that
things are being put .in ship shape for
his reception.
James McGinty has completed the ex
cavation for the receiving reservoir on
the Mesplie place and is now ready to
put in the concrete. His contract will
be finished by the end of the present
month.
A spectal train, consisting of four
coaches filled with Boston tourists,
bound for Alaska, arrived in this city
this afternoon. They will remain over
till morning and go down to. Portland oh
the D. S. Baker.
About 100 men are now employed at
the government works at the Cascades.'
They are pumping the water out of the
canal and expect to have it empty by
Friday next, when, it is to be presumed,
a larger force will be put to work.
If half the energy that was displayed
by Major Handbury, in improving the
mouth of the Columbia, had been spent
on the Cascade Locks they would have
been finished long ago. But no line of
railroad parallels the mouth of the river
and it is in the interest of no corpora
tion to retard the work.
Professor Ingalls desires as to state
that students will find no difficulty in
obtaining board and lodging here, and at
reasonable rates. Mr. Ingalla would be
pleased, if those who have accomoda
tions, and are desirous of boarding or
lodging pupils would be good enough to
. inform him of the fact that he may be
able to locate them when the time comes
to do so. We are pleased to learn that
large number of new students is ex
pected to 'entfr the Academy this fall.
Mr. Ingalls got word of seven yesterday.
jut. ml. v . nana or rtooa Kiver came
op to this city this morning. Mr. Rand
informs nsthat be has peach trees that
were "budded" three years ago, that he
. stimates will produce 500 lbs. of peach
ea to the tree. It will be very hard to
beat that record anywhere. Mr. Rand's
orchard is on a high bench above the
Hood River canyon and has not a drop
of irrigation. .A thousand persons in
the Hood River valley could do as well
sa Mr. Rand. The fruit crop of the val
. ley this year, is very large and the same
result that always follows a glutted
market is there also. The low price of
green fruit has driven quite a nam her of
orchardists to building or . purchasing
dryers and they hope in this way, to
reap all there is in fruit raising.
Yesterday, Tom Joles started from
this city to go to the Joels' camp, above
the forks of Hood River. He had only
got about a mile above the Vanbibber
ranch when the wagon axle broke square
in two and dumped him oat on the road
side. Now the ordinary load for this
same wagon is a ton, so it was evident
if ever Tom got to camp in a wagon it
must be a heavy freight wagon. Tom
borrowed One of this class from ' Alex
Anderson and put his traps in it and
started anew, and as no word lias since
been heard from him, the; freight wagon
may have stood the strain of carrying
him to his destination.
Mr. Joseph Paquet, of Portland, con
tractor for the Regulator, is in the city.
Buckskin Joe paraded the streets to
day, in grand style, behind his fine
three horse trained tandem team.
Al. Sutton of Portland is in the city
on his way from the Malheur country.
He has sixty-six head of horses on the
way to The Dalles, from whence they
will be shipped to Portland and offered
for sale.
'Noah advertised the flood. He lived
thn ngh it and the fellows who laughed
at him were drowned. Ever since then
the advertiser has been getting along and
those that don't advertise in the Daily
Chronicle have been getting left."
" We understand thtt onlv two nemnnn
left The Dalles today to meet Senator
Mitchell at the Cascade Locks, and
one of these was a newspaper reporter.
a vmes mountaineer.
Brother Michell blunders. It was not
a reporter, but the great, editor himself,
of the best paper in ' Eastern Orecon
who went down yesterday, to meet Sena
tor Mitchell. The Chronicle does noth
ing by halves. . -W
One of Will Graham's youthful cus
tomers, who is engaged in' business in a
small way took in 45 cents yesterday and
forthwith proceeded to invest it. He
bought five cents worth of peanuts, five
cents worth of candv. twentv cents
worth of cigarettes and the remainder
he invested in nine ears of green corn,
at Graham's resturant, which he ate to
the last grain.
We regret to hear that John W.
Carey of Kiugsley met with an accident
last Monday that nearly cost him his
life. He was riding - in the timber
when he came upon a coyote,' and
thinking io lasso it, he put spurs to his
horse and ran after it. By some means
he struck violentlv aeainst a tre and
was thrown to the ground. Further
particulars we were unable to learn but
heard that he was severely injured.
Mr." P. Mcllheney of the Cascade
Locks to whom the late Alexander
O'Toole left all his property, made a
lucky find the other day in a whole in
the wall of O'Toole's oid saloon. While
making some improvements in the
building which necessitated the removal
of a board nailed to the wall, back .of
the front door, he discovered a whole
about three inches square that had been
bored our with an auger. Putting his
hand in, he found a tin box which con
tained $570 in gold and $5 in silver.
As a proof that there is little danger
of overdoing the fruit industry of this
country, and that the business will be a
sure success when it is attended to in a
proper business manner, we may men
tion an instance related to us by Mr. M.
N. Rand of Hood River. Mr. T. R. Coon
who is one of the first to start the exten
sive raising of strawberries, in the Hood
valley got an average of eight cents a
pound for his crop three years ago.
Next year he had a larger crop which
he sold at thirteen cents, and this year
he got an average of eighteen and a
quarter. The superiority of the Hood
River berry will be apparent when it is
remembered that the common price for
strawberries, in the retail market of this
city was three boxes for a quarter, and
if one will allow a fair retail profit to the
dealer Mr. Coon must have got not far
from three times the price for his berries
that the fruit raisers around The Dalles
got for theirs. :
would travel twice the distance- to do
them honor, who would not go as much
as a yard to meet them in the company,
of Major Handbury, and that as far as
the major is concerned The Dalles has
no use for him. It was urged upon
them that we believe the whole business
has been conducted under "railroad in
fluence, from the time of the first en
largement of the original plans an en
largement which is beyond the need of
any vessel that will ever go through the
locks to the present moment. Senator
Mitchell expressed his regret at not be
ing able to meet the people of The
Dalles face to face and learn from their
own lips just what they desired the dele
gation to do in the premises. He was
informed that about thirty prominent
business men qf The Dalies, not long
since met a committee of the state legis
lature there and that the ubiquitous and
irrepressible major drew a forty rod map
on the crowd and talked with such ap
parent contempt for the ignorance of
everybody who was not a member of the
United States corps of engineers or a
graduate of West Point that they never
want to repeat the experiment. Senator
Mitchell spoke of the difficulty of chang
ing the stereotyped, red tape methods of
the war department. While nerfwt.lv

he had .little hope of success ; but he
fully hoped to make such a showing of
the necessity of having the work finished
speedily that congress, before the close
of its next session, would grant a liberal
appropriation. The senator had peculiar
pride in the work because he was the
first Oregon representative to make a
move in the matter, and he and his col
leagues would do everything in their
power to have the work completed at

Yesterday's counterfeiter was cap-
a I , t 1 . 1 . i
Lureu, wixn an trie tools ana appliances
of his nefarious trade around him, in a
room in the old Central school building,
over the Evening Telegram office. The
fellow gave the name of Thomas Mcll
vane, but from letters and a bank-book
found on him it is certain that his name
is Thomas Sheppard. He took posses
sion of the room last Friday. Between
his room and the adjoining one, occupied
by Mr; W. E. Long, is the door in which
is a w indow which had been darkened
by having paper pasted over the glass.
The paper had been torn from one square
of this glass and Sheppard, on taking
possession- placed a newspaper over this
square. There was a little place torn in
the paper over another square, which he
did not notice ;' and this led to his de
tection, for Mr. Long hearing hammer
ing and filing going on in the room
peeped through this hole and saw Shep
pard buisy making counterfeit money.
He informed United States Attorney
Mays of the matter, and a warrant was
sworn out for Sheppard's arrest. He
was captured yesterday by Deputy Mar

tion to the Cascade Locks. They arrived.
mere a little before 10 a. m., and were
.. ....... . : .) i . t

Governor Moody, State Senator Cogs
well and Hon. D. J. Cooper. If Senator
Mitchell and Mr. Herman expected a
representation of Dalles citizens to meet
thiva at the locks, as they undoubtedly
did, they must have been materially dis
appointed, for the only persons that
Went down from here were Captain
Lewis, Mr. P. T. Sharp and the editor of
the Chronicle. The party occupied
about an hour looking over tbeworks,
under the pilotage of Major Handbury,
when they returned outside the govern
ment reservation .where they spent
about another hour visiting and convers
ing with old-time acquaintances until a
west-bound freight took them back to
Portland.
Viewed in the light of the purpose'that
brought them there, their visit was a de
cided failure. They hoped to meet a
large representation of the leading citi
zens of The Dalles and to hear from their
lis what complaints they might have to
make or what suggestions to offer with
reference to the future conduct of the
works. The paucity of The Dalles
representation spoke very loudly to the
effect that The Dalles has ceased to take
any interest in the matter, because the
present generation never expects to see
the works finished, under the manage
ment of t Major Handbury. Senator
Mitchell and Mr. Herman were given to
understand very distinctly, and in so
many words, that the citizens of The
Dalles meant no disrespect to their
representatives when they failed to
meet them there, that many of them i
jregg ana all the other deputies, and

sistant Mr. Lockwood, who desired to

a Oman cuai on etove, a dox ol graver s
tools, plaster of paris, a gauge to tell when
a dollar was the right size, and other
things. A small hand-drill and box of
nne arms, which were propably need in
"plagging'J $20 pieces, were also found
in the roam. Sheppard was dressed
like a farmer. He is about thirty years
of age, with a full beard, dark brown in
color, and clear brown eyes. He ad
mitted his guilt, but said that this was
nis nrst attempt at such work, and
claimed that ha wna ntnHcino anrrn ..:
He had a number of letters from the land
aepartment which indicate that he has
been in the land locating business, also
a pass book on Dexter, Horton & Co.'s
bank at Seattle, showing that he had
deposited $150 there and checked it out.
Mr. Long says he made quite a number
of bogus coins by placing a "blank" be
tween the dies arid then giving th? im
pression in the vise, but none of these
coins were found, and it is supposed he
had a pal out trying to shove them off.
The deputy marshals were out last even
ing trying to find this man.' Among his
papers was a bill showing that he bought
the vise at the second-hand store of Isaac
Appel last Saturday.
Sheppard was taken to the county jail
where he was at once arraigned in the
kangaroo conrt, and after the rules of the
court had been read to him he was put
on trial, and hot having any money to
pay his footing, was condemeed to clean
the cell for a week. The fact that Shep
pard deliberately started business in a
room where he could be watched as lie
went on with his filing, pressing, smelt
ing, hammering, etc., and clinking his
bogus coin on the table to see if it had
the proper ring, shows that he was de
void of ordinary caution. Of his guilt
there is no doubt, and it is only to be
hoped that his confederates -may be
u8ht. There is a reward of at least
fdO ottered by the government for infor
