Some of the improvements worthy of note, which this year has brought to The Dalles, can be 6een on the bluff near the head of Madison street, where sev eral new houses have been built and others renovated. A Chronicle re porter happened up that way today and noticed some items of interest. The new cottage built ..by Mrs. Bolton is nearing completion and wilPmake a very prelty residence. The design is one of the most modern,' both ? inside ahd oufsid'ej and the materials and " workman ship are of first-class quality. Next to Mrs. Bolton's new residence, due of the oldet house's, has' been "renovated0' tilf.it has an appearance of newnee&.Uiat lain keeping with its nefgh'bor. The greateet improvement is that done by' Mr. "James Snipes." Where formerly was the bed of a lake filled1 with'-" water ini;. winter and dry in summer, now staiids ''the ". liand some, new home of . Mr.' Snipe's " The house is a' modern ', two-story "one, which can'be seen from different' parts of town and1 which' itself commands a- magnifi cent view.' Inside it is handsomely finished and contains the most modern appliances1 for - housekeeping. ' Mr, Snipes' cellar is-blasted out'of solid rock, a way of building cellars that is not very common. A "commodious barn adds to the appearance" of the property. The streets on the side and in front of Mr. Snipes' residence have been filled in and leveled, while many loads of. rock and dirt were necessary to cause the old lake to disappear. From this site a most beautiful view can be obtained in all di rections.' It is such improvements as. this of Mr. Snipes which add much to the worth and appearance of the town. Several other new houses were noticed in this immediate locality, among them being the residences of " Mr".' Mann and Mr. Barzee, which are finished and that of Mr. Ros e now in process of construc tion. . . Last night the "armory was again the Ecene of life and merriment. The occa sion was the regular quarterly inspection of Co. G and the hospital corps. The boys turned out in full force and were given a thorough inspection' by ColoneJ Thompson and staff, who found every thing in good condition. , At the close of the review discipline gave way to enjoy ment, and the boys were invited to par take of a "smoker" tendered them by the regimental and company officers. Coffee, sandwiches, corn cob pipes and tobacco were provided in abundanca and the members of the National Guard showed that they knew a good thing when they saw it. After some informal it:es of entertainment, some cf those present feeling the stimulus of the coffee and sandwiches proceeded to make speeches, which were greatly enjoyed by the listeners. CoU" Thompson, Lieut. Cbl.' Patterson, Major Booth and Lieut. Riddell made neat speeches, as 'did others ' who were present, among them Dr. Dietrich, who spoke for the hospital corps. ;tThe: occasion, was "a very pleas ant pne, and the wish was., a common one, that the entertainment last night was but a forerunner of others to follow. ill.

The sad intelligence was conveyed last night of the death of . Miss Olivia Rowland,, daughter of Mr. . and Mrs. George W. Rowland... For -nearly, a month the young, lady has been suffer ing from a complication of troubles, which about two weeks ago took a very serious turn. A consultation of physi cians revealed the fact that medical aid coutd do nothing to save the sufferer's life, and steadily' she "grew worse, ti l last! njjght; at "8:30" the end came. ' "Al though death' was ' not unexpected, the news caused a shock throughout the' town and 'cast a gloom over the large group of friends which Olivia Rowland could call her own.' The event is dis tressingly sad to those who have known the dead girl from babyhood and seen her grow into a noble wonian. .' She was a few months passed 22 years old, and was born in this city, where the years cf her. life were spent. Her disposition was of a kind that drew tp her as friends those who came in con tact with her, and there will be genuine sorrow among the young people over the loss of a sweet companion. The family will have -the sincere sym of everyone in their deep affliction; About twentv young ladies, members of Mr.W'm. Miehell's Sur day scliool class, were entertained at hishome, on Fourth ' street, last night, and a mtrry time was srent, the early part of the evening being paesed in playing "Lo gomachy," or the' war of words. ' Miss Nettie Fredden was successful in obtain ing the highest number of words.
