Quite a number of our people took
advantage of the Regulator running yes
terday to visit the locks. It is a delight
ful trip and a pleasant change from the
heat and dust of the city. Try it and
see.
Mr. Matt Murphy, the newly ap
pointed deputy U. S. marshal, made his
first capture yesterday, a white man
engaged in selling whisky to an Indian
being the victim, and he was caught, as
the boys say "dead to rights."
The city recorder had a sad and
solemn sort of a is-my-mother-in-law-coming
look on his face when we inter
viewed him this morning, and he also
bad $40 in currency which bad been put
up as fines. John Doe bad been on
another drunk, and when arrested was
in bis usual state of impecuniosity. He
is paying bis fine by eating it out at $2
per day. Besides John, there were four
others, female members of the Doe
family, before bis honor charged with
raising a disturbance in the East End.
They acknowledged their guilt, and put
up $10 each. They were all quite de
mure and paid their fines like ladies.
Quite a lot of the stock of the new in
corporation for the building of a cannery
here has been subscribed . for, and the
balance should be taken at once. What
ever is done should be done quickly, so
that the business could be commenced
at once. A few months' run will enable
the managers to see just what is needed
for next year, and to put the business in
shape for running smoothly then. The
stock is only $50 a share and every busi
ness man in town should own at least
one of these.
Mr. Ward, who is in charge of the
work of repairing the O. R. & N. road,
tells" us he expects to have it ready for
the passage of trains by next Monday.
While this may be an over-sanguine
view of the situation, it is quite certain
that the long break in the working of
the road is about at an end, and that
some time next week - trains will be
again running. The road from the
Locks to Hood River is about completed,
the main work now being between Hood
River and the first tunnel beyond Ro
wena, a distance of about ten miles.
A communication from Hood River
describing a trip to the summit of Mt.
Hood was received by us this morning,
and although we are always disposed to
give space to our readers, we feel that
this subject is quite threadbare. The
experience was no doubt a delightful
one to the author, but it has been
written and re-written almost as exten
sively as "My Trip Up the Columbia."
Besides no idea of the trip can be con
veyed by words. It must be made, and'
through the eyes understood and appre
ciated. . For this reason we are com
pelled to leave the communication un
published. . .
Open Twelve Mile West.
The trestle across Mill creek was fin
ished Sunday morning at 6:20. This
will bpen the road to a point half way
between Rowena and Mosier as soon as
a mile of track is laid the other side of
Mill creek. When the road was being
repaired between this place and Celilo
no rails could be procured, and so a
force of men were set at .work a mile
west of here taking up the rails and
hauling them on a push car to a point
near the shops. They were carried
through the shops, loaded on a car, and
taken to the front. The outside spikes
are all in, so that the rails can be put
back in a very short time. , .
A Sad Experience.
. We learn from Mrs. Elsie Nunn the
following particulars concerning the
death of ber little daughter Effie, which
occurred on Lower Trout on the 12th
inst : While the mother and child were
alone that day the child began taking
spasms suddenly. After the second
attack the mother gathered the child in
her arms and started for the nearest
neighbor's, having to wade Trout creek
on the way. She gave out and laid the
child .down and went on. ' None but a
mother can realize how Mrs. Nunn felt
when she returned to the spot with one
of the. neighbors and found her only
child dead. Effie was a bright little
girl, aged 3 years, 2 months and 2 days.

Off- Colored Savages.
The tribe of Improved Order of Red
Men recently formed here is getting
along nicely in spite of the untoward
events that befell it at its inception. Of
course what goes on inside of the lodge
is kept secret, but still a story has
leaked out, probably through some little
bird, that shows what hard luck the
warriors experienced. T After the in
itiatory ceremonies had been performed.
the visiting brethren from Portland be
ing anxious to get away on the morning
boat, it was suggested that a council
be formed and that the whole tribe put
on their war paint, for the occasion. A
keg of vermillion was left in the ante
room, and the tired braves each pro
ceeded to insert his hand and paint his
face that bright red color so admired by
the noble savage. When they were ad
milted to the presence of the Sagamore
and Sachems the former gave one glance
and fell in. a dead faint, while the
Sachems had to be held by the braves to
prevent them tomahawking the whole
crowd. Some wretch had changed the
paint keg, and instead of posing as In
dians they came in covered with lamp
black. A Small Picnic.
A party consisting of Mr. and Mrs. W.
H. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Crandall
and Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Glenn went to
Hood River yesterday, taking their
lunch baskets, and having a regular
picnic. The party, camped at Coe's
spring, which supplies the water for the
town of Hood River, and which is one of
the coolest and most delightful spots in
that beautiful valley. Mr. and Mrs.
Wilson had their bicycles with them
and thoroughly enjoyed a ride over the
magnificent shaded country roads.
Hngh Glenn ate seven times besides in
terviewing the steward on the boat for a
lunch, and the last we saw of him last
night he was trying to make arrange
ments with Col. Sinnott for supper. All
of which goes to show that as an appe
tizer a trip to Hood River is a success.
Struck the Top of the Tunnel.
Although, there is an item elsewhere
in this paper that would indicate that
there was a mile of track yet to be laid
the other side of Mill creek, the fact is
that the railroad boys went to work yes
terday morning, without saying a word
to us, and put that track back. Then
the pile driver started below, makinc
C3
the run as far as tunnel three, the first
one below here. In going through the
tunnel the top of the smokestack struck
the top of the tunnel, and got knocked
oil for its pains, and the steam pipes
were broken at the same time. The ac
cident was caused by the high water,
which had raised the track several1 in
ches, and quite enough to cause tronble.

WORSHIP OF A HERO.
The Kossuth Memento That Was Secured
by the Alcott Children.
A reference to the welcome which.
Emerson gave Kossuth reminds a Bos
ton Transcript writer of a story that
Louisa M. Aleott used to tell. The Al
cott children, says the writer, were al
ways hero worshipers. They had
heard from their brave, great-hearted
mother v the story of Kossuth's work
and Kossuth's country, and finally they
were taken to hear him speak. They
came home thrilled with the inspira
tion of it, and then lamented bitterly
that they had secured no relic of the
great patriot, however insignificant,
which they could enshrine and, wor
ship, as their fashion was. Iiut Anna
the gentle, timid Meg of later time
drew, exultantly and blushingly, a
glass goblet from beneath ker cloak,
and whispered: "He drank from it!"
'-'She had rushed in," said Miss Alcott,
"where we other vandals feared to
tread. While the father was soaring
with Kossuth into the heroic empyrean,
and we all stood round, amening so to
speak, Anna .had stolen close to the
desk, and' whipped the goblet under
her cloak. We built a little shrine for
it, and hung it on our chamber wall."
