One hundred and sixty boxes of fruit

him to fall. The colt's neck was broken.

PEASE
day watching one of your well known'
physicians row a heav$ -ekiff across the
river. The doctor received an urgent
call from North Dalles and hurrying to
the landing saw the ferryboat across the
river. Remembering that in vouthful
years he was something of an athlete, he
took a large skiff that lay close at hand
and pushed out into the; stream. The
first hundred yards he did pretty well ;
the next hundred was not so good.
Then be took a spurt and got nearly to
the middle of "tbe'river. The ferry boat
had started frooi' ttyl Washington side,
but bad to stop, as the doctor and his
skiff were directly over the cable.
Finally after exertions that tore tbe
hearts of the lookers-on in sympathy,
the boat reached the shore a long dis
tance below the landing. . We didn't
learn how many trips the:-ferry made in
the meantime.
Something not down on the pro
gram happened during the circus par
ade. Just as the procession was turning:
the corner by Mays & Crowe's, two ele-f
phants became refractory .and started:
down Second street. All efforts of theirU
keepers to restrain them were unavail
ing. One of the animals became greatly
excited and swayed his tvunk around in
a manner that showed his temper was
not of tbe sweetest. Tbe people along
the sidewalk watched the huge animal
with a great deal of interest, though not
unmixed with fear. The elephant
turned upon his keeper and pursued
him until that individual climbed over
the railing and took refuge in the cellar
of the old Vogt building. The other
elephant started, to come down the
street and his presence had a quieting
effect, and the two animals started up
Second street towards . the circus. The
keepers seemed to have no particular
desire to come in close acquaintanceship
with the beasts while they were in an
ugly humor.
One Drowning and. Nearly Two.
A little after noon yesterday Mrs
Scbrouden, a lady whose home is back
of Stevenson, fell from the portage in
cline at the Upper Cascades and was
drowned. She had just been on board
the Regulator and disposed of some ber
ries, she was selling, to the steward
The boat lay against the incline, upon
which were standing several box cats
loaded with freight. Mrs. Scbrouden
sta'ried to'go between the cars and then
changing her mind, walked along the
edge of the incline, outside the cars.
The men working on tbe boat beard a
scream, and, mshirj forward, saw the
unfortunate lady straggling in the water,
She had missed her footing and fallen
into the current. Charles Alderf, tbe'
mate of the Regulator, threw aside his
shoes, and, grasping a heaving line,
plunged'' into the water. The current
runs very swift at this point and both
the" lady and Mr. Alden were fast float
ing down the stream further away troin
the boat. The brave officer had swum
to witbin ten feet of the drowning wo
man when the waters closed over ber
head and she sank another victim to
cruel Columbia. By' this time Mr. Al-
cases are as follows:

den's clothes were heavy with water and
the line which he had tied around his
waist bad slipped from the hands of the
person holding it on shore. Two deck
hands, Charles Nelson and W. Harding,
seeing that Mr. Alden was in danger of
drowning, unfastened a small boat and
pulled with all speed. Tbe current had
carried the officer a long distance from
the Regulator and by the time tbe boat
reached him he was sinking under the
water. The boat was not a minute too
soon and arriving just when it did,
saved a 'brave man's life.
Mr. Alden proved himself a hero and
and faced death unflinchingly to sav
a life. Although his effort to save the
unfortunate lady were not successful, he
has earned words of highest praise and
commendation for his brave act. Such
deeds as these make manhood nobler
and prove that there are men who will
meet death to save - another. The body
of Mrs. Scbrouden vhad not been re
covered at tbe time' tbe boat left Cas
cades. She was aged about 25 and was
known as a bard working woman. Tbe
accident is deplorable.
We Want a Band. Stand.
At the last practice of the orchestra
one of the members asked, "When are
we going to give an open air concert?"
Someone answered, "Whenever there is
a band stand bnilt. The reply was
proper and steps should immediately be
taken towards building a stand where
the band could play during the summer.
We have the best musical organization
in the state and one that any city, large
or . small, should be proud of. Walla
Walla has open air concerts once or
twice a week and ' the people look tor-
ward to them with pleasurable anticipa
tions. In tbe summer when social hap
penings are few and a great number of
citizens gone to tbe coast, tbe town is
apt to be quiet and life get a little prosy
for those of. us that are left. An open
air concert once a week would give a
great deal of enjoyment to everybody
and be the means of bringing people to
gether. A stand could be erected for $50 or $75
which would amply fill the purpose.
The orchestra has done a great deal for
the town and is deserving of high praise
for its usefulness. It is something of a
request to ask them to play for nothing
and yet we are confident tbey would do
it. The Dalles can't have too many
things going on that tend to the proper
enjoyment of its people.
All day yesterday men were at work
loading fruit for shipment East. The
car was billed to Chicago and contained
apples, peach plums, peaches, black
berries and cantelopes. This will prob
ably be the last consignment 'of perish
able fruit east, as plums and peaches are
now too ripe. for Bending. In tbe car
last night A S Bennett had 414 crates of
peach plums and 41 boxes of apples.
