The1 Rathbone Sisters, under whose
auspices "The Confederate Spy" is to be
produced tomorrow night, request that,
owing to the fact that the bouse will be
crowded, the ladies remove their hats
whenever it Is convenient to" do so.' It
. was purely an accident that Thb Chron
icle argued a like action in Saturday's
issue.. The Rathbone Sisters had in
(ended previously to request the ladies
to remove their hats, so ttiat all might
have a fair view of the play. A little
inquiry shows that the request will be
complied with generally. "
A number of boys amused themselves
yesterday , afternoon throwing stones.
"Just for devilment" they first threw
stones in the water where other boys
were fishing, and just as they were tiring
of this meannees, a number of China
men started to walk across the long
trestle which spans Mill creek. The
boys changed their targets to the China
men. The latter gave the boys chase
and ran one of them down among the
pileB under the Baldwin opera house.
Three of them brandished, sticks with
apparent intention of chastising the lad,
when there appeared a number of young
men from the Umatilla house, which
had a quieting effect on both the boys
and the Chinese.
FOOTPADS IN THE DALLES.
Messrs.
N. Harris and Barry Scbvarti
Held Up Saturday Night.
DECIDEDLY BLUE OUTLOOK.
All Further Appropriations for the Locks
to Pay for Work Done.
In Crooked Paths.
. "Hands up!"
' This was the command which Mr. N.
Harris and his chief cler , Mr. Harry
Schwartz, received while ascending the
brewery hill on their way to the Harris
residence about 9 o'clock Saturday
night. For several blocks previous Mr.
Harris noticed footsteps in advance of
his own, and he now believes they were
waiting to see what route he would take
leading to his home. He next encount
ered them on the hill when they stepped
out suddenly from a rock' and confront
ed them' with the regulation footpad
command. ' ' . '' '
Messrs. Harris and Schwartz prompt
ly obeyed. The latter carried a lighted
lantern, and with considerable method
this' went up with the hand, affording
the' victims a good opportunity to ob
serve the robbers. , Their coats were
turned inside out, and they wore half
masks, but Mr. Schwartz claims to be
Bare of their identity. Mr. Harris says
he can Identify the arms if he ever sees
them again. They carried old-fashioned
horse pistols, or very large revolvers,
which . JIarris observed were nickel
plated, and which he got a first-rate
view of when thrust mtizzleward toward
them, in close proximity to their faces.
.Mr. Schwartz' foxy action in elevating!
the lantern was reproved by one of the
robbers, who snatched it and blew out
the light.. . He then covered the victims,
while the other searched their pockets.
It was apparently their first experience
in this: kind of crime, for the robber's
hands ... trembled .as he examined the

them. " .They were courteous, and ac;
comm'odatinglV picked up several of Mri
Harris' things dropped on the ground 19
the .search ' and restored! them to the
owner. They then bade the gentlemen
good night, .with the parting caution
not to look back. ' j

Messrs. A. S. Mac Allister, Jud
Bradshaw. and Capt. Gray of Astori
called on Capt. Fisk Friday at his offic
in .Portland,(,.Capt Fisk, as . ,ia wel
known, is engineer in charge, and the
gentlemen being interested in the pres
ent status of the locks and its develop
ment, desired what information wasat
hand , from" this source.' In answer to
tne question as 10 wnac..; tne engineer) tne colonel's old mend raising
proposed to do in regard to the $20,000hands in speechless expostulation
appropriation, which passed both .houses
of congress, Mr, Piek said:
"We have had no official, notification
that. this appropriation has been made,
and know of it only from newspaper re
ports.' But granting, the appropriation
has passed,' the fact remains that there
is no money in the fund upon which i
was drawn. Again, if there was, it has
already been earned by' the contractors
and must be used to pay them for work
already done. ' Consequently, I do not
believe that appropriation can amount
to anything, viewed in the most favor
able light. For the same reason the new
appropriation ofs $179,000' from the ap
propriation bill, cannot be used for pur
poses of further improvement, and the
greater portion of it anyway, must gq
to the Messrs. Day for work they have
already done. I . am in hopes that
enough of it ctn be saved to construct a
wall 12 feet high, to allow the passage of
boats during all ordinary stages of high
water, but nothing' can be assured in
this regard.". .. , ..' , , !"
Still seeking for friendly' or hopeful
expression on the part ot;Mr.! Fisk, he
was asked if he had any idea as to when
work could be resumed on the locks.
"There is no appropriation," mused
the engineer, "of whatever nature at
present, except the $20,000 for which
there are no funds. ' Then another fact
which would make it still more indefi
nite is that of the coming high water.
That ie, if there were sufficient appro
priations, there are many contingents
to overcome in the way of new contracts,
which must be' entered Into before any
further work can be done."
Mr. FiBk's views are corroborated by
a recent conversation between Mr. Day
and Messrs. Bradshaw and Lord of this
city. These gentlemen understood Mr.
Day to ., claim that there is a sum due
him tor work done amounting to
$200,000. , '
There is no work being done at present
whatever. 'Many families hae moved
or are moving away, and,the locks are at
a standstill. " , '

Col. Sinnott introduced the. venerable
appearing gentleman first as'Gov. Peni-
noyer, but when Mr. McKay and the
reporter both protested, the colonel said
he. was just joking,. the fact really was
that Mr. McKav first nilnted Tw1b anrl
Clarke down the Columbia river In 1802. f1
The Chronicle man then appealed toy

years ago, and was among the firt boat

be a crave! roof, for the Clarendon res

waiters and nis. wile Ida kept a res
taurant some time' since next to the
Mountaineer office. , They . were both
young and seemed devoted to eiach other,
and ' their1 domestic relations .were
further .happily- cemented ,by a bright
baby boy. One day .v'Walters wanted a
cook and . hired one William Landes.
After a' time there seemed to be aij, un
due familiarity existing between Landes
and Mrs. Waiters, and shortly afterward
on a warrant -f .search the ..two were
found occupying a room in the Cosmo
politan hotel. Officer Blakeney gave
Landes five minutes time to leave town
and he improved the opportunity,;,,. He
got on board a ecow and floated down
the river, getting off, at Hood River.
This was about j March let. -. Walters
took the child and went to the Yakima
country. , Her father, who lives in Calif
ornia, was then informed of the matter,
and be sent a check to pay for car fare
for his daughter from. The Dalles to
where he lived. But it never reached
her. A week after Landes had. been
ejected from . the hotel the ' two met
again at Hood River. She went with
him to Portland, and, leport says, put
her in a house of ill . fame,. he living, off
her earnings. : - .
Walters again reappeared in the city
today and issued warrants for. the arrest
of the guilty pair. The sheriff took the
2 :30 train for Portland to get them.
