The case of David Lowen & Son vs. J.
C. O'Leary went to the jury last night,
They were not long in returning a ver
dict for the defendant. This was the
last civil case on the docket and winds
np the jury trials for the term. Other
matters remain to be heard and decided,
The lecture last night at the Methodist
church was not as largely attended as
its merits warranted. The people that
did go listened to an eloquent and in
structive discourse by Dr. Ford. The
gentlemen spoke of the need America
would have for men of noble character
in the many conflicts of natural life and
how important it was the youth of our
land should be well prepared for the
struggle. Dr. Ford is an able speaker
and handles his subject with masterly
skill.
Mr. F. C. C. Fox'was brought up from
Viento last night for examination as to
his eanity. This morning the county
judge and physicians went through the
usual examination and decided that the
proper place for the unfortunate man
was Salem. Sheriff Driver took him to
the insane asylum on the afternoon
train.
Last night the rehearsal for "Damon
and Pythias" was held in the lodge
room. Mr. Rasmus has done good work
in training the members of the caste,
and they are making his efforts easy by
showing a great amount of interest.
The play is a hard one to learn, and the
memorizing of lines and getting familiar
with the situations requires much labor
on the part of the performers.

tons of fish yesterday. . One ton came

It is about time tbe salmon were coming
and the fishermen are using up their
store of patience.

The Diamond Mills are taking their
annual vacation, and will remain closed
for a. month or six weeks. The machin
ery is to nave a thorough overhauling
and repairing. The mill has been in
cessantly busy - all season, and the year
has been a prosperous one. There is
now on hand a large amount of wheat
which will be held till operations have
been renewed. This institution has
been the means 6f attracting much
wheat to The Dalles, and consequently
increasing our trade with the country.
A good deal of 'feeling was expressed
Sunday at the action of a couple of men
from the country. The horse they were
driving had been horribly treated ; bis
shoulder was all cut and bloody, as if
some sort of swelling had been slashed
out with a knife. The animal was
drenched in perspiration and had been
driven hard. Sheriff Driver was notified
and has tbe matter in charge. The men
will probably hear more of the matter
and have theirs attention called to the
fact of a' law being upon .our statute
books which punishes cruelty to animals
A summary court martial was held
last night before Lt.-Col. J. M. Patter
son, .bight members of Co. G were
brought before the court and had their
cases attended to. This court martial
is for slight offenses committed against
the good discipline of the company, and
does not involve any "moral turpitude."
The charges were preferred by the cap
tain of the company. The militia boys
are showing great interest in the organ-
fzation, and at every drill a large num
ber turn out. Co. G is making much
progress in its tactics, and will some
timerank among tbe most efficient com
nies in the state.
Almost s Tragedy.
Last evening about 7 o'clock as Thb
Chhoniclk force -were winding np the
days work, a loud report like a cannon
shot was heard upon the silent air. The
people along tne street stopped to see
who was shot; Thb Cheonicle people
ran out to get what surelv seemed a
promising item ; Geo. Ruch came from
his store; some men in Nielsen's store
hurried to the sidewalk; the coroner
Btarted on the run and everybody looked
at one another inquiringly but no corpse
was to be seen. Finally a shout pr
ceded from the Pacific Express and Thk
chronicle man ruehed in to write up
another $14,000 robbery. The only sight
that greeted his eyes was Agent Kurtz
gazing around the room with the blank
est of expressions upon his face. The
ruins of an alcohol lamp lay scattered
upon the floor, while the wick was coiled
around Mr. Kurtz' neck. He had been
heating sealing wax when all of a sudden
the lamp exploded. It was very fortun
ate that no one was struck by the broken
pieces of tin, as Mr. Kurtz was .bending
over the lamp-when it took the sudden
freak and its remnants flew alt. around
him. -
Koboerjr at Ben Wilson's Saloon.'
Early this morning some thieves broke
into Ben Wilson's saloon andprocedeed

This, however, proved not to be much
All the money but a little silver had
been taken from the till and put in tbe
safe and the robbers only got $1.50 in
money for their trouble. They also se
cured a bottle ot whisky in which to
drown their disappointment and some
cigars to smoke on the way. This place

currences. Over a year ago Kight Police
