Leaves Fran the Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. Rev. J. W. Jenkins will preach next Saturday and Sunday at Dufur. The atmosphere is full of smoke. Forest fires must be at work in the mountains. The river front is covered with cord wood. Dealers are laying in their win ter's supply. The Regulator made a landing at Rockland this morning to put off freight for Goldendale. The board of Stewards of the Metho dist church are requested to meet this evening at 8 o'clock in the office of Wil liam Michell. According to the weather summary the hottest place in the state during May was Arlington, Gilliam county, where the thermometer averaged 53. . The debris caused by the big blast of Saturday has been cleared away and the road bed put in proper condition. Trains are running again without interference. An impromptu bath house has been arranged on the Columbia and swim ming has become quite a fad. Every day and evening a large number can be seen enjoying themselves in the water. Prairie chicken shooting is said to be first class and parties who like tramping over the hills come back laden with birds. : The variety of fowl is excellent eating and offers big inducements to hunters. The mayor is looking out tor the re corder's office during the absence of Mr. Phelps. The fact seems to have struck terror to the hoboes.for not a one showed up this morning and the scales of justice were not brought in use. The communicition published in another column regarding a board o trade is timely and to the point. It'c suggestions should be carried into effect. When this city has a live, energetic board of trade other benefits will come more quickly. Mrs. Tack man, mother of Mrs. C. L. Schmidt, is lyin.j very ill at her daugh ter's (Mrs. Schmidt's) residence. Air-. Theodore Priuz, another daughter, who - is camping at Stevenson, was tele phoned for this evening and will arrive . either on the boat or freight train. Bin ford Dongia, who was arrested at Walla Walla, by request of the suthorit- - ie of Wasco county, was brought to The Dalles this morninu and lodged in the county Ja.il. Douglas is charged with horse stealing and already has had sev eral experience with the clutches of the PEASE law. His preliminary examination has not yet been appointed. Farmers are busy harvesting and the town is quieter than a month ago. Now is the best time to take an outing for those who can, for net fail when the wheat begins to come in every business man will be busy. Every body should have two weeks in the mountains or at the sea shore. Nature demands it and her laws are inexorable. A number of the speedy boys belong ing to the fire department met last night for the purpose of choosing a team for the tournament. The hoys did not practice last night, but from now on will drill constantly. Great interest was shown by everyone and there will be no trouble in having plenty of mate rial presented from which a good team can be chosen. The late circus has left a deep impres sion upon the youngsters of town and tnere its a longing among many oi tliem to become knights of the sawdust. An embr jyo aggregation i f the world's cel ebrities is now showing in the East Eud. The performance is under the manage ment of Rex Ward and Frank Sylvester and rivals the big shows-in the pleasure it gives the audience. The band stand agitation is meeting with favor among citizens, and the chronicle, is praised for pushing the matter. With such a splendid orchestra the people of The Dalles should have more opportunity Of hearing them. The cost of a commodius stand wouid not be great, and when di.ided among a lare nu nber of contributors wou'd be inappreciable. l.et us make up our minds to have one. The Orchestra held its regular practice laet evening. The question had been asked several of the members during the day whether or not they would give open air concerts if a band stand were erected. The boys unanimously agreed to play at least one evening a week free of charge. This generosity on the part of the Orchestra should find a hearty response from people of The Dailes and the building of a grand stand should quickly result. The Dufur telephone line reached N 5-Mile Hill last night and camped at that place. This is making rapid time. The worst part of the work wa building Hi rough Thompson's addition and out to 3 Mile. This part having been done the remaining portion will be comparatively easy. The backers of the enterprise do nut say much but they mean business. Another week and The Dalles, will be saying Hello" to Dufur. The gentle men who are bringing outside points fn talking communication with The Dalles are showing commendable enterprise and success will attend their efforts. The new fruit dryer, mention of whic was made several weeks ago, will surely be built. The iron work has been con tracted for and the wood construction will begin immediately. The location is a lot on Tenth street, south of Robert May's stone house. This point will te accessible for the fruit raisers of Mill I Creek, Dry Hollow and other : points & MAYS. where the .orchards are found. The plant is expected to be in working order in about ten days. The company will be known as '"The Dalles Fruit Evaporat ing Company." J. C. Meins will be the working manager of the concern, while J. G. Koontz will act as secretary. A meeting of the Jackson Engine Co. was held last night in the city hall to take further action regarding the pur chase of a racing cart. A motion was carried that $120 be appropriated from out the funds of the treasury as pay ment for the Jackson company's share. Everyone was enthusiastic in favor of the motion. Grant Mays, Ed. Mays, Mark Ling and Rudolph Frank were elected to membership in the company. After discussion regarding the coming tournament and the best way of having The Dalles worthily represented, the Mr. Winans brought to The CrboniclbV office today the ttencil of Captain Men- weather Lewis, concerning which men tion has been made in The Chronicle and other papers. The stencil is made out of boiler iron and evidently made to last till the end of time. The relic was in the form of a box, but the cover has been knocked off. Mr Winans found the stencil in the spring of 1893 jnet ninety years from the time the Lewis and Clarke expedition started on their trip to the western wilds. It was found on an island in the rapids above thiB city and had probably been cast away as a thing of no worth by some Indian who was ignorant of its sentimental value. If ever Mr. Wiuans parts with this momento of early northwest his tory, it should properly go the national museum in Washington, where every thing of historical value is preserved for public inspection.
