Concluded from third page. tnittee representing The Dalles Commer cial Club should write to our senators aad congressmen to ascertain if $6,000, $8,000 or $10,000, could not be secured from congress at once by tacking it to the general appropriation bill ; and that the request be backed 'by the commer cial clubs, boards of trade, etc., of the entire Northwest. He urged al- possi ble baste, and that the letters to the congressmen be sent at once, so that if the amount could not be secured by con gress, other suitable action could be taken immediately to open the locks for traffic. These remarks he embodied in a motion tjiat a committee of five be ap pointed for such purpose, i Speaking to the motion, Mr. Schanno eaid Capt. Gray assured him Astoria would alone raise half the amount re quired to wall the canal with cement be tween the upper and lower locks, if the amount had to be raised by substription. The motion carried, and the commit tee appointed were Messrs. Bradshaw, Whealdon, Mac Allister, Laughlin and Schanno. This committee will assemble at 3 a' clock this afternoon at the club rooms to formulate definite and prompt action. Mr. Mac Allister again called atten tion to the danger of the whole works being destroyed' by high water, and be lieved no time should be lost in securing an appropriation of the amount that -could be expected during the fiscal year $179,587. The work should be going on sow, and the telegraph should be need if necessary, to urge the importance of this work of protection.' This matter will also be considered by the committee .at the meeting today. Ihi Hood River Ball. It was a jolly lot of young ladies and . gentlemen that boarded the Regulator last night for Hood River, to attend the Maccabees ball. They left at 7 o'clock, arriving at their destination at 8 :30, and were met at the landing by teams sent -out by that order. The hall was beau tifully decorated with evergreens, and the guests were bidden a merry welcome within its walls. The festivities lasted until 1 :30 o'clock, followed by a choice supper. The following were the com .mittees: Reception H. F.Davidson, G. E. Williams, C. A. Bell, J. H. Fergu son, J. F. Matt. Floor managers J. E. Hand, C. E. Markham.E. V. Husbands, M. F. Loy, A. B. Jones. ' About 1 :30 o'clock it became apparent that the best of friends must part, and although loth to leave the genuine hos pitality and capital entertainment pro Tided by the Hood River folks, the Reg ulator whistle warned them that the hour approached for departure, and about 4 o'clock' the boat again drew up alongside the wharf at The Dalles There were a few who vainly supposed they could cradle themselves in the arms of Morpheus during the trip from Hood River up, but they were deceived. The most unearthly noises that ever dis turbed the auiet night were made by the marauders to whom sleep was no object. With horns and pans and anything that would make the most noise, the high and byways of the boat were searched for revelers who had yielded to Reductive sleep. And the joy that arose over the reclamation of the' poor unfortunate from the land of Nod was more demon strative than the Salvation Army. But when the grey dawn of another day broke in the Orient, the deck of the Reg ulator was deserted, and those who had gone to sleep but not to bed, went to bed and to sleep. Thus ended the Macca bees ball. I'EESONAL MENTION. Mr. Cbas. Cramer of Hosier is in the city. Mr. R. A. Power of Mosier is in the city. Mr. F. C. Clausen of Nansene is ia town touay. ' Mrs. A. R.
