The remains of an Indian, drowned at

degree f contentment which bring all
the luxuries of comfort.

ies of recorder, marshal, city attorney
and treasures will go into effect after the
V coming city election." Under it the
recorder and marshal will have $100 a
month, and the treasurer and attorney
$26 a month. The ordinance has cut

One of the important industries of The
Dalles, that deserves the encouragement
of the business comunity of the Inland
Empire, is the East End trunk factory.
, f Industries like these help to keep money
, in the state. This firm manufactures all
their trunks, and goods of their make
- excel the greater part of trunks imported
from the east., The factory is prepared
to make any kind of trunks to order,
likewise repairing. They have the lar
gest and best variety in the state.

in exhibiting alleged feats of skill with
the lariat.
It may be none of the business of The
Cheoniclk, nevertheless, notwithstand
ing, It is an opinion pretty freely shared
that consolidation will "not save a broad
division' in" Multnomah affairs if Albina
is hoodoed put of afree bridge. That
t,he people down there keep moving, and
show no signs of discouragement, is pos
itive proof of earnestness. , On Saturday
they turned over a petition with 9,000
names appended, addressed to the secre
tary of war, in which' it is recited that
the proposed free bridge would benefit
one-fourth of the people j of Portland,
and that it would be no material obstruc
tion to the navigation of the river. Thirty-five
other petitions of similar import
still out, will swell the number of signa
tures to 20,000.
. Judge Thornbury, and Messrs. Schano,

of whom were heard to express regrets
that they could not go on ' to the lake.
At white salmon the outfit of the judge
and his party comprising a team, a Baddle
horse, and a well - stocked department
of suplies ; left the Regulator and took
to the bills amidst the cheers and kindly
wishes of all on board, separating signals
flying upon both land and water until
each receded from the sight of the other .
Look out for the trout Thursday night.
Out at the East End a few evenings
since a representative of Tps Chroxiclb
saw several striking illustrations of the
mulisaness of horses. There were two
balkey horses that required half a dozen
men to start them. There have been
some barbarously cruel methods resorted
to to make a balky horse go its way, any
of which might be avoided, said a good
horseman, by taking the front foot at
the fetlock and bending the leg at the
knee joint. Hold it thus for three min
utes, then let it down and the horse
will go. The only way to account for
this effectiva mastery is that the horse
can think of only one thin? at a time,
and having made up his mind not to go,
the bending " of the leg takes the mind
from the original thought. It is worth a
trial. . ' -

Jilted Artist's Saleida.
. Paul Canon, artist, ' journalist, mem
ber of half dozen clubs and looked
upon at St. ' Joseph, Mo., as a ' rival to .
James Whitcomb Riley, walked into
Wna 8 gun store and asked to look at
some revolvers. Selecting a weapon of
oo-caiiber Canon inquired if the price
included cartridges. On being: told that
it did he requested the storekeeper to
load it for him. Taking the weapon in
bis hand Canon said: . '
: - "Are you sure this gun . will shoot
straight?"
f "If it doesn't you needn't pay for itl"
replied the dealer.
"It looks like a good weapon," said
Canon, "but I'd like to bet you the
cigars 1 couldn't hit a mark six inches
away."
v , 'Til take you," quickly replied the
dealer.
"All right; here goes," said Canon,
and before the horrified shopkeeper
could interfere Canon had placed the
pistol to his temple and sent a bullet
through his brain.
On his person was found a. note ad
dressed simply to Adelaide." It said:
"Deak Girl You have wedded wealth
and I am wedded to death. Which is
the happier? . Paul."
It told the whole story. A short time
ago the announcement of his engage
ment to one of the most beautiful girls
in the city was made. A wealthier suitor
appeared on the scene and she had heart
lessly jilted him. Cor. Chicago Tribune.
The Kite Not to Ireva1L
it would seem evident to any one who
has been watching passing events and
expressions of precedence that the popn
lar track of the future will be the regu
lation mile track, with quarter mile
turns, quarter mile stretches, railroad
curves and grades, made of good, elastic
soil, and on a level plane. All of the
"solid comforts" of-trotting races are
with this form of track, because specta
tors can see what is going on, and the
danger to horses and drivers is reduced
to a minimum. There is no use or
thinking- or talking about the trotting
turf remaining a popular resort for the
recreation loving public unless tiotting
races are conducted on a track and in
such a manner that , spectators can get
something for their money. Turf, Field

A Slice Plague In Scotland.
There is a veritable mice plague on
the Scottish borders, which has done
immense damage to pasturage. "The
herbage has been totally destroyed, not
a vestige of green having been left.
There is consequently no alternative
but to remove the greater number of
sheep and find food for them elsewhere.
It is believed that at least two-thirds of
the sheep on the affected farms will have
to be "removed, so that the outlook for
spring is very gloomy. Fanners unani
mously attribute the plague to the de
struction by gamekeepers of the weasel,
hawk, owl, magpie and other natural
enemies of mice, and to the fact that
tenants are prevented from burning
rough pasture in spring. London Let-
