The pile driver is now in position and
the piling has arrived. Work will prob
ably begin some time tomorrow. An
experienced man in euch work has been
-sent for from Portland to take charge of
driving the piles. It will take, accord
ing to calculations, about three months
to complete the undertaking.
The Regulator brought up a heavy
load Saturday. On the front deck were
a bnge threshing machine and two
horse powers. It was a task to get the
cumbersome machinery around the
portage without any accident, bat it was
eaiely accomplished. . The machines
were billed to Johnston Bros. Dufar.
It is reported that the O. K. T. Com
pany, which gave a musical entertain
ment some time ago in The Dalles, has
disbanded. From The Dalles they went
toward the E.ist and while there, the.
rumor says, the expense of advertising
proved too great for the home company
to stand. Several of the members were
well known in The Dalles.
Frank Reynolds, who for nearly two
months has "been very sick in the city,
has recovered sufficiently to allow his
being taken home to Lyle landing. Mr.
Reynolds was accompanied by E. H.
Merril, who has been acting as nnree for
the greater part of the time. The
'Knight of Pythias lodge has attended
all the eick man's wants.

farmer of Klickitat county. Wheat
shipments from now on will go regularly

to carry a large portion of this year's
harvest.

morning Andy Allen, the veteran
trainer, started on the Regulator with
Grover, belonging to Mr. Bennett, and
Baity, owned by J. P. Mclnerny. These
horses have made good records wherever
they have appeared and their owners
look forward to see them lead tneir class
in Salem. '
Ed. Howell, the popular baggage man
at the depot, and Mr. Smith, the night
operator, went hunting down towards
Mosier this morning. They borrowed a
railroad velocipede and slipped out of
town in the early hours before the peo
ple were aBtir. If some tramps don't
take their vehicle away from them and
leave the hunters footsore and weary
between etations, they will be back this
evening loaded with game for their
mends. y
Yesterday was the second of the dry
Sundays in The Dalles. A good many
bibulously inclined took the opportunity
of going to Cascade Locks, where the
cheering fluid can be obtained in large
or small quantities without resorting to
back doors and necessitating the laying
in of a supply the previous day. The
law seemed to be generally in force in
The Dalles, though there were some who
claimed that the knowing ones could ob
tain, without much trouble, all the
liquor wanted.
The members of the city council met
ia an informal caucus Saturday evening
to consider matters of special importance
to the welfare of the city. It was not a
regular meeting and no .official action
was taken on any subject. The matter
of Mrs. Obarr's suit was discussed and it
was thought wise to have a committee
appointed to confer with Mrs. Obarr and
see if "a settlement can't be arranged.
If the matter cannot be adjusted the
city will have to stand a suit. Sunday
closing was also discussed but no direct
action was taken regarding the pre
r a
'oldV
lenly J
cedure.
Airs. Augusta wegnenman, an
resident of The DalleB, died suddenly
Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Weggenman
had not been feeling well for several
days and her absent daughter was sent
for, arriving several days ago. Satur
day the sick lady felt no better, but
nothing serious was expected. Her
daughter spoke to her and then turned
her attention to other things. When
she returned, her mother was dying.
Mrs. .Weggenman was 47 yearB old and
lived in The Dalles for many years,
Her husband was hunting in High
Prairie at the time of her death and was
summoned by special messenger. The
funeral services took place this after
noon from the Congregational church.
The excursion to the I.ock8 yesterday
from Eastern Oregon was not so widely
attended as the promoters expected it
would be. There- were not over 200
people, including those from The Dalles,
who came from east of the mountains.
The' attendance from Portland was much
larger, the crowd from that place being
very great. ' The day was spent by the
excursionist in looking over the govern
ment works and viewing the beauties of
the Cascades. The promised address of

Major McNeil did not occur, nor were
there any exercises of such a character.
A special train left The Dalles at 7 : SO a.
m., carrying about forty people. It re
turned at 8:30 in the evening. The
Eastern Oregon ext-nrsionists' cars were
attached to the through train.
Every day something that causes ad
miration for man's inventive genius is
called to attention. This morning a
Chbohiclb reporter spent an interesting
hour in Dr. Doane's office looking
through a magnificient aniscroecope,
which the doctor bas just received from
St. Louis. Some specimens from natur
al history were viewed and the curious
structure of a fly's eyes was plainly visi
ble through the lense. One of the spec-'
tatorp was a martyr to science to the ex
tent of sacrificing a drop of ' blood
for inspection. The action ot the
different corpuscles was : very inter-
restuig and could be -seen very plainly,
when magnified by the microscope.
rhe instrument is a very fine one and
those who have never looked, through a
microscope of high ' refractive . power
would find it a very pleasant diversion.
Improvements In Our Schools.
In company with Mr. William Gla
sius, the efficient janitor of our public
schools, a Chronicle representative
paid a visit to the various school build
ings in town. There is no subject in
which parents are more greatly interest
ed than the surroundings in which their
children are placed during years of edu
cation. There is no city in the onion of
the same size as The Dalles which h as
better educational facilities. A great
many improvements have been made
this season under the present board of
directors. The Union street school and
brick building on Court street have
been thoroughly renovated. Fresh
paint makes the walls look bright and
new, while the floors have all been oiled
and the desks varnished. The stairs
and hallways have been painted and
the blackboards received proper atten-
ion.
Although the buildings down town
have received a great deal of .attention,
it is the Academy Park school which
shows the most improvement. The
building looks as if it were built but a
few months ago. instead of fourteen
years. Every portion of the structure
has been put through a cleansing pro
cess. The hallways have been oiled,
the wainscotting varnished, ceiling cal
cimined ; the roof has received a fresh
coat of paint, even the belfrey and the
flag-staff have received due attention.
In the yard also a great deal of work
his also been done. The trunks of the
trees have been whitewashed and the
tops neatly trimmed. The weeds have
been cat down till the place looks like a
city park. When the students return
from their joyous vacations and settle
down to work, they will find themselves
In clean, airy, attractive surroundings,
conducive to the best pessible work.
The directors are to be praised for the
work tbey have ordered done, and due
credit should be given Mr. GlaBius, for a
moreindnstriousand intelligent overseer
it would be difficult lor the district to
obtain.
