Mrs. Hattie Jones arrived from the
Malheur country Saturday, Jher exper
ience being quite adventurous. It was
GO miles from where she started to Vail,
a journey which she was compelled to
take on horseback. She was accom
panied to this point by her sou, a mere
boy. Wrhile crossing the mountains
deep snow was encountered and the two
were compelled to tramp down the
snow which was about six .feet deep, be
fore they could proceed with the horses.
They finally reached Vail, where the
boy returned, Mrs. Jones proceeding by
stage to the railroad and arrived at The
Dalles without further evept.
The Squirrel Crop.
Condon Globe.
The supposition entertained by many
that the ground squirrels were killed by
the cold, proves untrue. The miserable
little scamps are out again. A great
many of them can be seen scampering
about in all directions, and the present
indications are that they will be very
numerous. Now is the time to begin on
them while feed is yet scarce, and before
they bring forth their numerous progeny
to work destruction on the growing crops.

He saw the President.
Mr. C. G. Roberts, who spent the fall
and winter in the far East, has again re-
urned to Oregon. While in Washington
ity recently, he had the pleasure of a
half hour's chat with the great Grover
and Secretary Whitney. He is more of
a Cleveland man than ever since his
visit, and smiles every time he is asked
about his calling on the president. It
seems he was one of many who were
waiting to see the president, and as the
crowd was very large, Mr. Roberts be
gan to consider his chances for an inter
view as very slim ; finally a bright idea
struck him, and pencilling on a carahis
name, followed by the legend, "Presi
dent of Ihe Hood River Tariff Reform
club," he sent it in and foll&wed it a
moment later. It was the "open se-
teame. The president was much in
terested in Oregon, speaking particu
larly of its wool industry. Secretary
WThitney was present and also showed a
keen interest in all matters pertaining
to this part of the union. Glacier.

FOUND DEAD IN BED.
Joseph Gshwlndner Expires Near Dufur
from Concussion of the Brain.
A tragical occurrence, resulting in th
death of Joseph Gshwindner, happened!
at Henderson's ranch, about five miles'
from Dufur, Saturday night.
The deceased sent in for a bottle of
whisky by a young man named Staats.
The druggist, Mr. Balch, supplied it,
after questioning and satisfying himself
as to its intended use. It seems that
Gsb winder has always borne a reputa
tion as being temperate, but on this oc
casion was feeling ill and depressed, and
believed himself to be in need of a stim
ulant. Arriving at the ranch the whisky was
delivered and drinking a little made him
reckless and in a temporary frenzy he
drank a large quantity of it. He then
went out on the porch, and shortly after
fell headlong face downwards to the
ground for his full length. Those in the
room soon came out and 'observing him
spoke, receiving an inarticulate grunt in
response. He was then gathered up and
put to bed, snoring heavily. In the
morning, when entering the chamber,
he was found to be dead.
Coroner Eastwood was at once sum
moned from The Dalles, who empanelled
a jury and in accordance with the facts,
rendered the following verdict :
Dufub, Or., March 12, 1893.
We, the jury empanelled by the cor
oner of Wasco county, to examine into
the cause of the death of Joseph
Gshwindner, found dead at the farm of
Edward Henderson, on 15-Mile creek,
Wasco county, Oregon, find from care
ful examination of witnesses and from
testimony of the phvsician making the
medical examination, that said Joseph
Gshwindner came to his death by con
cussion of the brain, caused by a fall
from a porch and striking the ground on
his head ; and that no person is in any
way responsible for such fall or such
death. M. J. Anderson,
W. L. Vandebpool,
F. C. Wabbbn,
N. M. Latiiim,
J. H. Johnston,
W. J. Cbaft.
Gshwindner has no relatives in this
vicinity and his only effects were a bun
dle of paptrs now in the coroner's pos
session. One of them is the receipt for
an application to send $100 to a brother
in Austria for fare to Oregon, which
amount will probably now be refunded
to the county and used for burial ex
penses. The Phonograph and the Dunn.
Recent tests in the use of the phono
graph in the deaf and dumb institute at
Indianapolis show that it is useful in
concentrating sound upon the drum of
the ear, so that many pupils otherwise
deaf can hear it. It is thought by the
superintendent that he can by this
means soon teach the use of their voices
to many mutes whose inability to speak
is due to the fact that they have never
heard speech. Exchange.
Dom Pedro's Garter.
Dom Pedro was a Knight of the Gar
ter, having been invested by the queen
during his visit to Europe in 1871. His
death did not create a vacancy in the
order, as, like other royal personages, he
was an extra knight. It is probable that
the Oomte d'Eu will come to England in
a few weeks in order that he may person
ally deliver up his father-in-law's insig
nia to the queen. London World.

CITY COUNCIL.
The Question of Sewerage Occupies Most
of the Special Meeting;.
The meeting of the"city council Satur
day night resulted in the appointment
of Messrs. S. B. Adams, Jno. Marden
and Smith French as a committee to
determine the rates of assessment of
taxpayers for repairing the Washington
street sewer, r A"h!ai uplUloU Was read
retail ngto-tfn o would be subject to as
sessment, and a list compiled by the re
corder and street commissioner will be
furnished the committee, comprising all
who are benefited by the repair.
A general discussion was had about
sewers, the opinion of the entire council
being that the present sewerage of the
city was far from satisfactory, and that
the sewers should be extended and peo
ple compelled to drain into them. The
mayor directed that between now and
next regular meeting the council should
obtain all the information necessary in
relation to the matter, so that a well
defined policy of sewerage could be
started and maintained.
The recorder was instructed to request
The Dalles Lumbering Co. to plank un
der their flume where the road crosses,
as at these places it is almost impassable.
The strongest recommendation that
any article can have is the endorsement
of the mothers of the town. When the
mothers recommend it you may know
that that article has more than ordinary
merit. Here is what the Centerville,

of an article sold in their town : "From
personal experience we can say that
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
broken up bad colds for our children.
We are acquainted with many mothers
in Centerville who would not be without
it in the house for a good many times its
cost, and are recommending it every
day." 50 cent bottles for sale by Blake

The city of London is put down by

of about 6,000 miles on the curved sur
face of the earth, with London as a cen
ter, would describe a circumferenco in
closing more land than any 6,000 mile
circle that could be drawn from any
other city in the world. Exchange.
Joseph V. Dory, of Warsaw, 111., was
troubled with rheumatism and tried a
number of different remedies, but says
none of them seemed to do him any
good ; but finally he got hold of one
that speedily cured him. He was much
pleased with it, and felt sure that others
similarly afflicted would like to know
what the remedy was that cured him.
He states for the benefit of the public
that it is called Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. For sale by Blakeley & Hough

A Childless Home,
Smith and his wife have every luxury
that money can bay, but there- is one
thing lacking to their happiness. Both
are fond of children, but no little voices
prattle, no little feet patter in their
beautiful home. "I would give ten
years of my life if I could have one
healthy, living child of my own,"
Smith often says to himself. No woman
can be the mother of healthy offspring-
unless she is herself in good health.
If she suffers from female weakness,
general debility, bearing-down pains,
and functional derangements, her physi
cal condition is such that she cannot
hope to have healthy children. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a sov
ereign and guaranteed remedy for all
