A massive stretch of dark and lower

The Fountain Arrived.
The handsome drinking fountain, for
man, horse, and dog; the gift of The
Dalles Epworth League, to the city,
arrived today, and by permission of
Mrs. Chapman will be erected on the
west side of Washington street, in front
of the poatoffice. The League: will set it
up with an appropriate ceremony. Con
sidering the numerical strength of the
league in The Dalles, this must be taken
as an evidence of perseverance in a good
cause.
Last Tear's Fruit.
At the residence of Messrs. Joles Bros,
in this city is a cellar' worthy of investi
gation by the state horticultural society.
From it, yesterday, Mr. George Joies
took some red cheeked pippin apples of
last year's crop, that are actually too
good to eat, ; We have two of them at
this office which we keep to show to
people, who may have been told that
Wasco county can't raise apples. They
are of very fine flavor, and we occasion
take them out of the box to smell of
them. Such fruit is worth two bits a
smell. Mr. Joles informs us that this
fruit was not cased, nor in bins ; but
was stored on shelves, placed at dis
tances apart convenient to receive the
fruit in tiers, but not close enough to
come into contact with each other.
The temperature of the cellar is very
nearly regular and must have something
to do with the keeping of the fruit.
THE BUTCHERS TRUST.
Beef Business Beginning to Look np.
Yes, up the Spout, Perhaps. '
The Dispatch says beef cattle in Crook
county is beginning to look up. No less
than 1,500 cattle have been driven from
the Willamette valey to this county this
season, and more are coming. The next
paragraph, perhaps, may be explana
tory. It says: "Good beef cattle can
be bought for about 2 cents on toot, or
double that if dressed, in Polk county,
and milch cows can be had from $15 to
25. This leaves the inference that the
Portland "rule or- ruin" butchers trust
is responsible for the "beginning to look
up" view of the Crook county business.
At this season of the' year the drive
ought to be the other way, and prices
considerably in advarice of the above
quotations. The business is "looking up
the spout,"so to speak ; but we pay just
as much for stakes, and brisket, and
flanks, as we did when tho producer
got a decent price for his cattle, before
th'e organization of the Portland but
chers trust. Which is flourishing like a
green bay tree. It controls the' beef
market both in this country and abroad.
The railroads are in its grasp, and what
are known as the cattle ships are nearly
all in its power.. The beef producer in
this country was never before forced to
sell at so low a figure as now prevails.
He gets at present only 3 or at most 4
cents per pound while in' Portland and
London the price on the block rules
at 12i to 25 cents.

always rated as one of the most 'estima
ble youngladies of The Dalles. There

and members of the families. The
bride was dressed in a handsome cere
monious costume, of cream peau do soie

Duchesse lace and ribbons, and her
queen-like appearance betokened her
happiness. The groom, "every inch a

MNKKKTON II THE DAL1IS.
The Country Has ho Use For Them
cept in Such Cases.
The terrible scenes at Homestead and
Couer d'Alene cause a shudder at the
mention of the name of Pinkerton, and
when Col. Sinnott introduced the writer
to J. B. Pinkerton, at the Umatilla
house, today noon, we at once gave our
views of the lessons of Homestead and
Couer d'Alene. There must be no in
termediate force of baronial likeness, as
a worthy contemporary has remarked ;
no. armed forces gathered by rich men
and corporations responsible neither to
the people nor to centralized govern'
nient. This conviction has been inten
sified more that - ever before by the
bloody.conflict between "the Homestead
strikers and the so-called Pinkerton
guards sent in by Mr. Carnegie. Before
proceeding farther we were gladly in
formed that the guest of Col. Sinnott
was here upon a peaceful mission. As
contracting agent for the C. M. and St.
12, Ry., he is here looking after a victory
over his competitors; which hath ail
the pleasures, and none of the horrors
of life. In such cases as this Mr. J. B.
Pinkerton will' be made agreeable in
The Dalles, After certain apologies, on
part of the introducer, who has such "a
world wide reputation for truth and ver,
acity that the introduced couldn't doubt
his honest purposes, in this particular
instance.

Mew Style of Coon Hunting.
The inhabitants of the mountains west
of this place are gTcat coon hunters.
Some nights ago Bill . Benchoff and
Colonel Yingling started out with half
a dozen dogs and two boys to carry the
pine torches. A coon was raised on the
east side of the Monterey, and the dogs
chased it down through a deep and
rough ravine and np a rocky spur on
the west. After a climb of an hour
Benchoff and Yingling at last came up
with the dogs. They had run the coon
into a troe and were marling and bark
ing around, underneath. .The boys
whirled the torches and Benchoff hanged
away at what he thought was the coon,
bat no animal tumbled. -": ' '
Yingling in the meantime 'had been
tearing paper and trying to ignite a
match, but it was damp and would only
splutter. Benchoff was deriding him
when suddenly a great ball of. fire illn
minatod space. Yingling had succeeded
in igniting his match and was emptying
a roman candle into the tree.
The first, ball struck a branch and
burst and the second hit the coon
"plumb ' center." Its fur caught fire
and with a -yell it came rolling down
among the angry dogs. The third ball
revealed two more coons in the tree, and
Benchoffs rifle dropped one, while Ying
ling, with 'the last ball in the candle, hit
the limb, on which the third' coon clung
with pitiful terror, and it lost its hold
and tumbled into the months of the
waiting dogs.
They got six more coons that night
with the help of Yingling's candles, and
now the colonel ' regularly shoots the
romans and Benchoff Shoots the gun.
They are the most successful coon hunt
ers in all the region. Gettysburg (Pa.)

A Sad Leap Year Story. -
Leap year is with us once more, and if
reports are true a number of Chicago's
young ladies have already proceeded to
make the most of it. However, there is
one story circulated which proves that
the comao of true love does not run
smooth even when directed by the rrfem
bers of the sex that is supposed to know
most about it. . . ' V " .
"Let me tell you a story about my
friend 'Lill,' " said one of Englewood's
fairest daughters. "I don't suppose I
ought to tell it, but the incident is one
that most men who have tried lovemak
Sng will know how to appreciate. Loirs
bean., who came from Boston a year ago,
had been paying attention to her for
months and calling on her about two
nights a week. ,- -'
"But he seemed to be so bashful and
so afraid of coming to the point that
she finally grew desperate and said to
mo: 'Yoa just wait till leap year comes
and I'll teach, that bashful young man
!a lesson. -Such diffidence and such de
lay are wholly inexcusable.
"Well, New gear's, cam and the
young' man called. I expected" Lill to
come down to my house the next morn
ing to tell me how she had happily set
tled matters, bat she didnt.come, so 1

peared to be indisposed and melan

''Her eyes filled with .tears, and after
a little cry she said: -

him: "Now, my boy, 111 show yon how

" 'And what did yon 'say then? I asked

A Similar Feeling Inland. , - .
Spokane Review. It is small wonder
that citizens of The Dalles gave vent, to
their feelings by an' enthusiastic ratifi- ,
cation meeting on receipt of the news
that the river and harbor bill had passed
and the .cascade locks would be finished
by contract. For years they have waited,
with what patience they could muster; '
for the opening of one of the ' greatest
rivers in the country, to relieve them of
their bottled-up condition, and now that
there is some prospect of a speedy com-
pletion of this work their enthusiasm
knows no bounds'. .The -opening of the
entire river will create a similar feeling
among all the residents of the Inland.
