Some grim genius of dipastcr pursues
tbo person of Clemens AVetlc, and tbo
several narrow escapes bo has bad from
death can scarcely bo counted on the
fingers of his hands. Ho commenced
by breaking bis leg in three places.
Shortly afterward a horse stopped on
bis foot, cutting olT Iub big toe as neatly
as a biscuit cutter could have done it.
Last summer ho was badly powder
burned, while investigating its explo
sive power, with other children. A few
days ago a mule kinked liim in the ab
domen. Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock
he was shot in tlio stomach with a 32
caliber bullet, and still lives. Nicholas
Krier and Wotle were playing with a
rusty pistol, which would not work, but
supposed not to bo loaded. The boys
doctored it up with coal oil and it
unany worKco. Krier liau the weapon,
i and of course tbe best place to point it
- was at Wctle. It was a self cocker and
Tbe quiet of the recorder's office was Krier was surprised to see aliltlc wreath
broken today by the trial of two persons (of blue smoke follow the pulling of the

run are both runners for the Columbia
hotel and had some dispute while L'oing
to the boat Saturday evening concerning
their respective merits. The testimony
showed that Warren was drunk and
called Brown names, which most men
will resent. Warren threw im his arm
as if to strike, and then l'.rown
knocked him down promptly. War-1
ren lay unconscious for some time.
P.rown told a straightforward story ,
which was uncontradicted, while War-!
ren refused to take the stand. The re
corder seemed unable to make any dis-!
Unction and fined them each $15. War-,

coming out within two inches of where

surgical work for the family, was hastily
summoned. He had bis surgical in
struments already to start, having caught
sight of the familiar figure of Wetle fran
tically riding his gray horse for tbe doc
tor, and the latter knew just what to ex
pect. The father says he has grown
used to these things now, and could not
be happy unless some horrible thing
happened every little while. The boy
seems to bear a charmed life, and he
would hardly get wet if be fell in tbe
river.
The lti-ttir Way.
The Dalles is said to be the liveliest
town in the Northwest today. There is
more cash in circulation and more busi
ness done every day than in cities ten
times its size. The reason is that the
town has never overbuilt. The Dalles
never was a "boom" town, and now
while bankruptcy stares Tacorua, Seattle,
Spokane and other Pacific coast towne
in the face, The Dalles pursues the even
tenor of its way. The city lias a pros
perous country around it, which in
creases yearly in wealth and population.
Perhaps The Dalles has not kept pace
with the country, but if this is an error,
it is on the safe Bide. After the fire, no
blow was made about the town arising
"pha'uix-like" from its own ashes, that
the fire was "a blessing in dieguise" and
all that. The fire hurt tbe town, hurt it
like everything, but instead of borrow
ing all the money possible nnd mortgag
ing what was left, property owners pur
sued a course of moderation and today,
after over two years, it has not fully re
gained all that it lost. It has improved
u great deal, to lie sure, but not on bor
rowed capital. It has been paid for with
money since earned. There has never
been a legitimate business failure in The
Dalles. Neighbors study what this
means. IVoperty values never reached
a fictitious figure. Is not this better
than to rise to fancy figures in a fever of
boom, and then relapeo when tbo bubble
bursts? Tbo Dalles is prosperous even
in these times of depression. It is sure
to grow, but may it never make a mush
room growth. We do not need any
magic city building. When the pres
sure of increasing business from river
traffic and country farms crowds tbo
present channels, business men with tbo
necessary experience and capital will
erect more stores and public buildings,
and the business will be ready for them,
without any artificial stimulant.
