The November term of the circuit
court for this county promises to have
a fall criminal docket, if the grand jury
finds true bills against those who are
awaiting its action. There are quite a
number of unfortunates in jail or under
bonds, charged with criminal offenses,
The wisdom of building a new grade
up the bill by what ia known as the old

fally proven. The many wheat teams
which daily come over this road find no
difficulty in making the . assent when
formerly on the old grade it was at
tended with great hardship. .

evening at the pavilion. It will be un

make it a great success. The fall orches

A Happy Wedding;.
Promptly at noon today a happy wed
ding took place at the residence of Hon.
John Marden, in this city. In the pres
ence only of the immediate relatives
Rev. W. C. Curtispronounced the words
which bound Martin Donnell and Grace
Marden together in the holy bonds
of marriage. Many were the congrat
ulations and heartfelt good wishes
that were poured in upon the happy
pair. Both the young gentleman and
young lady are so well- known and res
pected by those with whom their lives
have been spent that this event has
caused more than ordinary interest.
Their youth from babyhood to a vigor
ous manhood and a lovely womanly
character, have been spent in The Dalles
and as from out oar midst these two
voyagers have gone to sail on the sea of
life the blessings of all their .friends
follow them.
Martin Donnell was born and raised in
The Dalles and has only recently moved
to the neighboring town of Goldendale,
He has earned in this community a rep
utation for honor and integrity that will
be to him an augur of good future. - He
is every inch a man and carries with
him the respect and admiration of a
host of friends. His father, the late
Hon. Z. M. Donnell, was one of the
most respected pioneers of this country
and his mother is highly beloved for her
many virtues. -
Miss Marden, now Mrs. Donnell, Is
one of the sweetest and lovely in dis
position of The Dalles' fairest young
ladies. She is one of The Dalles' best
products, and her winning jrays and
kind disposition have brought to her
many friends. She comes from a most
respected family. --
Mr. and Mrs. Donnell left on the after
noon train for Portland, from thence
they will go to Tacoma and Seattle and
to Victoria, returning in about ten days.
They will make their home in Golden
dale, where Mr. Donnell is proprietor of
a prosperous drugstore. In the general
expression - of' congratulations The
Chronicle extends its best wishes for
happiness unbounded and unmarred.

A BETTER ATTENDANCE
SECOND DAT OP DISTRICT - FAIR
Yesterday's Races At . the Pavilion
Tonight's Musical Program Ex
hibits Added Notes.
Today's attendance at the fair was
much better than that of yesterday.
The good weather continues, and the
good roads accounted for the presence of
quite a number of - country people.
Many carriages, with their occupants,
were lined Along the fence-of the track ;
the grand stand was well filled, and al
together thesight was much better than
yesterday..
The stock sheds and stalls are full of
premium-takers. Some fine animals
are to be seen by walking among the
stock. Mr. Robt. Kelly, our genial
deputy sheriff, has some imported stal
lions, which are noble-looking animals.
Montfred and Verney, 4-year-olds-, are.
entered in the sweepstakes for perche-
rons. He also has, in the class of
graded draft animals, two mares,
Bluet ' and Dell, and one stallion
named Kingsley. In the cattle exhibit,
are found under Mr. Kelly's name, one
Devon bull, 3 years, one breeding cow,
one heifer and one bull calf. , Mr.
Kelly's exhibit is a very fine one and
calls forth much interest. . ' '
Sheriff Driver keeps up his end by a
good exhibit of cattle. . They comprise
one short hoin bull, 4 years old, one
short horn cow, 14 years, one calf, 3
weeks, one yearling heifer, (short horn),

mare and colt. -

more extended notice of the stock will
have to wait till tomorrow.

AT THE PAVILION.
The pavilion " opened its doors to the
public at 5 p. m. yesterday. In the
evening, when the large arc lights were
turned on, the building presented a
brilliant appearance. Nearly all the
space is taken, and more exhibits are
continually arriving. The crowd was
not so large as .the management ex
pected, but the first night is not usually
the best one, and it is confidently ex
pected the succeeding nights will see
the pavilion filled, as it should be, with
interested spectators. The orchestra
dispensed sweet music, and added fresh
laurels to its already full crown. Lavish
as may the' praise be, too much cannot
be said appreciative of the music. The
selactionB were of a high order and ren
dered with a grace and expression that
placed the orchestra beyond the limits
that mark the amateur. The Dalles is
fortunate, unusually so, in having in its
midst such an organization that is a
source of so much pleasure to all lovers
"of the harmonies of music. Oar orches
tra should be given every encourage
ment, and those who pay the price of
admission can be sure of receiving fully

YESTERDAY'S RACES.

races followed that was ever eeen oh any
racetrack. The entries were Powder,

Henry.' In the mutuals Jim Crow was a
