PEASE
A PLUCKY BOY.
A Four-Year-Old Keeps His Head Dur
ing an Exciting; Runaway.
A country team ran away last night,
starting from Mr. Farley's house, and
had quite a spin before they were
caught. In the wagon was Billy John
son, a 4-year-old grandson of R. B. Hood.
The team ran down the street, where an
effort was made to stop it without suc
cess, but turning it in the direction of
the brewery. Up the grade it ran here,
and gaining the top of the bill ran along
the street until it reached Mays'
stone house, when it struck a tree, throw
ing the little boy out. He had up to
this time clung manfully to the seat,
and had not got excited in the least.
Men rushed quickly to the spot, expect
ing that the life had been crushed out
of him, but imagine their surprise on
asking him how he was, to receive the
answer :
"Ob, I'm all right, I guess; I haven't
lost (feeling in his pocket) my ball, and
here's my other things."
Any other little boy of his age would
have been frightened nearly to death
and jumped out of the wagon with ex
citement. PERSONAL MENTION.

Sad End of a Menagerie.
In an item last week we failed to pub
lish a very important circumstance.
The item was in regard to Cal Hedge-
peth's menagerie, and what we neg
lected to mention was a series of sad
accidents which recently befell it. The
menagerie formerly contained two eagles,
specimens of those birds that roost on
the top rung of liberty and scream for
American independence ; but sad to say,
one of them got hungry and devoured
his fellow bird as if he had been a hand
out from a ten-cent lunch counter.
Then he died of ennui. A porcupine
that was formerly one of the crowd
shuffled off his mortal quills and passed
away into history with the last day of
March. Cal thinks he died of measles,
and we are glad of it. We have no sym
pathy for it nor for a man who would
make a "playful little pet" ot a measley
varmint that is always trying to drive
carpet tacks with his tail. PrineviUe

Don't Go To San Francisco.
A circular letter has been received
from San Francisco, as follows :
Greeting, Brothers : Do not be de
ceived by false reports. The city of San
Francisco is crowded with idle men.
There are thousands of us tramping the
streets hungry, hopeless and destitute
For God's sake keep away from this
city. Advertisements for laborers, sail
ors or mechanics are false. Place no
faith in them. There are ten men here
for every job now. By order Executive
Committee San Francisco Unemployed.

Should Live in The Dalles.
A girl has been arrested in Chicago
and fined $20 for hugging and kissing
men on the streets. She pleaded in
court that she had a desire ior that sort
of thing that she could not control, and
when she saw a man whose appearance
pleased her she just threw her arms
about him and kissed him as many
times as she could before he could es
cape. If this young lady is good look
ing, we venture the assertion she could
live in The Dalles indefinitely and there
would never be a complaint made
against her. . '
The tracks of the great Atlantic lin
ers between the United States and
Great Britain are as accurately made
out and followed as if they were built
on land, the winter track being' some
distance south of the summer track be
cause of icebergs. Over these watery
roads the ocean greyhounds travel at
the speed of moderately fast railway
trains, the maximum attained by the
American liner Paris being about twenty-three
mile; an hour.

Ed. Ryan and lady are in Portland.
The boys on the work train are keep

lots of work, they have lots of fun.
Fireboy Dickey Adams is on the sick
list, and besides following the doctor's
directions in regard to medicines, etc.,
has a weather eye on those handsome
baby carriages on exhibition in an up
town window.
Engineer Morgan, that gallant knight
of the throttle, who has a record of mak
ing the fastest time between Umatilla
and Wallula junction that was ever
made on that part of the road, spent
Sunday in town.
The veteran Engineer Geo. Lang is
again at work. George has been off
duty for eight or nine months on account
of sickness, and we hope he may be able
to hold a position henceforth, although
he takes Haalam's run on engine 542.
Haslam has a right to take the next best
job in sight.
Fireman Rastus Young is contemplat
ing a trip to Chicago to visit the world's
fair, and if rumor proves correct, he will
also visit the old Buckeye state, and
pluck one of her fair damsels , to share
his joys and woes. Brother Young is
held in high esteem by all of the rail
road boys, and will be sure to reap a
bountiful harvest of old slippers and
rice when he returns to The Dalles.
Come listen to my story boys,
That is if you have time,
I'll tell you about a work train
Upon the U. P. line.
The captain's name is Rcznor,
I think you know him well,
He run upon the Sandy,
And in The Dalles did dwell.
Now Reznor has four brakemen,
And of them I will tell,
But there is one I can't describe
If I should go to jail.
There's Main Line Jack and Bird Cage Bill,
We count them as a pair,
And staying on the side track,
You bet they do their share.
There's ball-faced George and honest Hell,
They form the other crew,
And when anything does go wrong
Old George gets in a stew.
The engineers, well I guess not;
I must not let them go,
So each of them must have a shot
As well as Ben and Joe.
Jim Nlckell, he will work all day,
And yon will never have a bobble,
But to get that Morgan to do right
You've got to have a Bquabblc.
Now comes Joe the handsome man
That keeps up steam for Jim,
With large blue eyes and Roman nose
And small and dimpled chin.
There's fire-boy Ben
With round, full face,
He surely is a nice young man
And always keeps his place.
Next comes John Roof, telegrapher,
He's tall and awful spare,
He goes away on Sunday
To get himself a square.
The boarding boss must not escape,
I wish that 1 had room,
I'd paint him in the colors
That would terrify the moon.
