Don't forget the moonlight excursion
Friday night. I
Mr. and Mrs. Klindt, and Judge Liebe,
join the Astoria ' excursionists today,
having left on the Regulator this mom
mar. Mies Anna Peters & Co., 112 Second
street, invites the ladies to call and in
spect the latest and most complete stock
of millinery goods in the city.
A guest of the Umatilla house sat
-down to dinner last Saturday and the
waiter, as usual, came forward and an
nounced the menu, beginning with
"split pea soup," but mumbled so that
the guest thought it was speckled trout,
,."yes," said the guest, "How are they
cooked ; I like mine fried." "Sir," said
the waiter, "we don't fry the soup
"Oh I pardon me," answered the guest,
'I thought you said speckled trout."
There is another case of diphtheria ' in
this city. ' This time it is the seven-year-
old son of Louis Blank. The boy was at
the picnic yesterday and was taken so
: ill on the way home that he had to be
carried from the boat up to. the house.
He has been attending the public . school
nd Director S. B. Adams assures the
Chronicle that tbe school building will
. be fumigated and every precaution taken
to etop the spread of the disease. If it
becomes necessary to close the schools,
xnis will be done. . -
It is no reflection on the hospitality of
the Gesang Verein picnic ' to sy that
some of the nearly 400 excursionists got
very hungry before lunch time. The" air
. of the Mosier country is liable to make
4t man feel that way anyhow. This was
particularly the case with Julius Fisher
and Shorty Henderson, and their teeth
fairly watered at the sight of a lunch
- basket, which they bad not the courage
. to steal. -Meeting Judd ' Fish they
pointed out the basket and asked him to
helrw them out. - - Judd.' nothimr wv.
. ' e
pick! rt up, while Shorty, leading the
way into the bush, said "Come on
Scarcely had they, gone twenty yards
when the owner of the basket met them
and said "If you please, I'll . take that
basket. This is the second time today
it has been stolen." The feeling of the
trio can be better imagined than de
cribed.

well, and got married to her. . Four
days after the wedding Teller was a

of his bride Teller had gambled . away
$250 of her money and not daring to face
her again he took his life. He left a
letter addressed to his wife explaining
why he did the deed and asking her for

should write to his sister, Mrs. Belle

The second Eastern Oregon District
Fair Association will hold, their annual
fair this yearv commencing on .Tuesday
the 11th of October and ending on Sat
urday the 15th. This will W about a
month later than the date on which the
fair has been held for the past two years
and it is, beyond question, a changethat
ought to make tbe coming fair the most'
successful of any yet held. The ereat
trouble with the last two fairs was that
they occurred at a time when the farmerr
were busy threshing, or if through with
this work, were engaged . in hauling
grain, ordinarily the throng of this
work will be over by the time fixed for
uie present year. Anotner cnange. nas
been decided on that ought also to con
tribute to the fair's success.- No race
horses will "be allowed to compete for
premiums, that do not belong to Eastern
Oregon or to Klickitat county, Wash.
These changes have been made entirely
in the interest of the farmers and stock
raisers of this district and we hope they
will be fully appreciated.
A Good Day's find. ;
Some years aero a Dlowman at-work in
Cornwall had the good fortune to strike
a kind of urn and scatter a number of
coins, which on examination proved to
be Roman, many of them of the time of
the first emperor. They were of various
sizes, and generally in a state of good
preservation. The man collected about
1,600 of them, and," as he was ignorant
of their value, disposed of them at a
penny apiece; but .undoubtedly at that
rate he would be well satisfied with bis
clay's work. London Tit-Bits.
How tne GiM&y Lays Its Egg.
An insect known in the west as the
gadfly attacks horses, laying its eggs on
the animals. The horse licks itself and
conveys the eggs to. its' stomach, where
they are hatched, the worms clinging to
the stomach walls. " ' Very often they
bore through the stomach. ' and kill the
horse. Washington Letter.

THE PICNIC AT MOSIER. -
An Extras fine Day Enjoyed tn an Extra
Fine Way. " '
The"number is largely increasing in,
America . who find picnic, amusements
in the parks, - and suburban vllas of
large commercial - centers, a suitable
method of rest, and that this system is
spreading to Oregon in the average ratio,
one has but to notice the parks and sub
urbs of Portland, Astoria, Salem and The
Dalles," on the fine sunny.. Sundays of
spring. Yesterday, the fast and reliable
steamer Regulator, Capt. John McNulty,
of - The Dalles, Portland " and Astoria
Navigation company, made two round
trips between this city and Mosier Park,"
thirteen miles, carrying the Gesang Ver
ein Harmonie,' and about . 400 invited
friends on a picnic to the matchless
groves, green; grassy .fields, and rippling
mountain streams,' for a musicals, of 're
markable excellence in the open .air,", in
terspersed with music of The Dalles
brass band, and numerous innocent
games and athletic sports.- Lively scenes
followed in quick succession, and the
programme, which was long, varied, and
of fine character, was carried out to the
letter, without one unpleasant incident
to .'mar the-happy day. In the foot
races, sack-races, pole climbing, etc;, etc.,
many valuable prizes had been offered,
which Etimultated agoodnatured rivalry
among the-participants, young and old,
and many were the practical jokes per
petrated and enjoyed, each individual
being actually entertained in bis or her
efforts to make tbe event interesting to
some one else, and where everybody did
so well it would seem invidious on the
part of the reporter to make any special
allusions. "Once in several generations"-says
a noted writer, "society is
startled by actually being entertained at
one of its entertainments." Such was
surely the case yesterday. Refreshments
were furnished in abundance, of all
kinds, and the true hospitality of all is
illustrated in the case of the writer, who
was so pressingly invited that refusal
was impossible, and in . company with
five other gentlemen, joined Mr. and
and Mrs. H. C. Nielsen in a bountiful
meal nicely spread on the grass, in the
park, under the pine trees, surrounded
by at least fifty similar camps, all doing
justice to the repast in hearty and social
converse.' The ' greased pig, and the
men who caught it, seemed to be the
only living thing on the grounds that
was tired and at 6 o'clock, the last boat
left for home enlivened with music and
song until the whistle sounded for the
wharf at the foot of Union street, where
the happy throng was greeted by nearly
as many people who had remained "at
homeJi- for the day, .and thusriended the
long to be remembered Harmonie picnic.
A liberal Proposition From tbe Floater
'. 7'i';-" Owner. . i.-..'--; ."
- Yesterday, -a 'Ji-' H. r Mosier looked
over the active scenes at hia park,, the
old gentleman seeiced to realize that ' it
was a blessing to the children,- and to
many of the olderones, particularly tired
mothers and fathers, - lo ".be able to so
congregate in a healthful locality and re
cuperate their energies for continuance
of the duties allotted to them with the
recurrence of labor day, -and thinking
over the matter,, he made; a proposition
'to a representative of The . Chbonicle,"
that if any reliable -company would in
corporate, tinder the laws of Oregon, and
assume the responsibility,' he would do
nate a considerable tract for the pur
poses of a public park, and a permanent
pavilion, hotel, etc., could' be erected
and make of it as fine an outing resort
for The Dalles, Walla Walla, Portland,
and intermediate points, as can be found
on the " coast. The Chronicle would
suggest, that in case no other ' corpora
tion should assume the responsibility,
this being the natural home of the horse,
and onr people being more or less inter
ested in fine roadsters, a gentleman's
driving club could be profitably incor-
iporated, with a capital of $10,000 to $15,-
000, and by judiciously expending the
money, make a drive and park combined
that would eclipse anything of the kind
on this -continent. . The subject is
worthy-of consideration.
. Mount Rood Takes a Smoke.
All day Tuesday a steady , column of
smoke and steam ascended from Mt.
Hood. Parties living only twelve miles
from the mountain tell us the column
was as plainly'marked. at times as theH
smoke from a chimney. It is -possible
the -recent disturbances . in California
have reached the "underpinning of the
old volcano and stirred 'it up to the
grumbling point. - At any rate, dozens
of people living in the valley noticed the
steady all day smoke, and as our informant-was
-almost at ; the base of -the
mountain, "it is not probable he was mis
taken. U lacier. .
