Superintendent A. J. Borie of the 0.

morning. He reports the road across
the Bine moontaina as in good shape,
and that the storm was not nearly so
severe there as here.

1600 sheep for Eastern markets. Be
sides these 100 hre were received this
morn-ine for the Oolnmbia Psckinff On,
Thev were hauled in sleighs, from Dnfur

The water in the Colombia is falling
qmte rapidly since the cold weather set
in, and it is possible it may eo down
enoneh, to permit the examination end
repair of the boll of the Dalles City,
;' She, bv the way, is. said to be resting on
an even keel on the sand, and it is bare.
v twwsible she mav vet be soved. Tb
officers end crew, eleven in all, are still
on hoard.
It is probable the bis ice houses at
Hood K'ver, holding 12.000 tons, are
"being filled now. It has ben seven !
; years since they were filled before, bot
, if the present weather holds for a week
or ten days they wi'l be filled again.
The company has a splendid plant and
everv convenience for handling the ice
eh partly, it being taken from the pond
by an endless chain operated by steam.

bnghly warmed and i far ahVad of any
office heretofore used in. The Dalles.
Indeed, it would be difficult to find a
better room for the office, even though
the city had 50,000 inhabitants instead
of 5,000.
A gentleman ia from Antelope last
night, says the snow storm did not
reach that neighborhood and that the
ground the other side' ot Bake Oven is
practically bare. Stockmen are not yet
feeding, stock still doing well on the
range. County Clerk Kelsay, who gave
us this item, also volunteered the in
formation that it was one of Mark
Hauna's schemes of class legislation
giving the farmers plenty of snow and
leaving the stockmen, who don't want
it, without.
THE SNOW BLOCKADE.
Old, Middle A red and Tonne Folks, and
all the Blgbt Sort.
Tb Cars Snowed Under
Krldal Veil.
Tnl Bide of
Train No. 1, the westf-bound passen
ger that went down yesterday morning,
is snowed in hardVanA fast this side of
Bridal Veil. The cohnuctor sent a mes
senger to Bridal Veiryesteraay aiter-
noon, and through the kindness of the
agent here we are given the particulars.
The train is fast near the section house
this side of Bridal Veil, and consequent
ly there is plenty to eat, and a supply
sufficient to last at least three days.
The snow is like grains of wheat, hard
and firm, and just slides down off the
mountain like that cereal out of a grain
chute. The engine, baggage and express
cars are completely buried, and around
the coaches the snow 'is piled half way
up the windows. Everybody is comfort
able though, and will no doubt be oct
of their predicament tonight or tomor
row. The rotary snow plow from Pen
dleton is on the way down and will be
here this evening, probably about 5
o'clock and will at once start down the
road. The rotary of this division, is
caught in the snow between Trontdale
and Bridal Veil, but will be dug out this
afternoon. It is headed this way, and
when once out will soon be able to re'
lease tb,e passenger train.
Those who have friends on the train
need feel no alarm, as the worst that
can happen to them is a day or two of
delay.
J oat What Miners Want.
All who are, or expect to be, interest'
ed in mines will be glad to know that
Henry N. Copp, the Washington, D. O
land lawyer, has revised Copp's Pros
pector's Manual. The mineralogical
part of the work has been almost en
tirely re-written by a Colorado mining
engineer, who has had years of experi
ence as a prospector, assayer and super'
ntendent of mines and United States
surveyor.
The book ia a popular treatise on as
saying and mineralogy, and will be
found useful to all who wish to discover
mines. The first part of the work gives
the United States mining laws and reg
olations, how to locate and survey
mining claim, various forms and much
valuable information. The price is 50
cents at the principal book stores, or of
the author.
SOME TYPICAL. DALLESfTES.
The Dalles,' compared to Eastern
towns, is not yet old. yet it has a history
or rather is a part of the history of the
coast. In the earliest days an Indian
trading point, then the supply town for
the vast mining regions of Southern
Oregon. Always a great shipping point,
and of late years depending for its steady
prosperity on the products shipped out,
and the merchandise shipped in and di-
vided among the four or live counties
tributary to her. Consequent on her
favorable situation, there are more well-to-do
men who here laid the fonndation
ot their fortunes, than any other town of
its size on the coast can show. Many
have gone away, had gone before our
time, and many have gone oyer to the
majority, but of those here, The Dalles
may well fell proud. They are of that
energetic, thrifty, industrious .class,
who saw their opportunities and took
advantage of them. We venture to
name a few, and point them out as
examples worthy of the consideration of
the generation growing up, as showing
what may be accomplished by thrift
and application, and pointing out the
fact also, that all these men started here
with very small means, and many of
them with nothing bat stout hearts and
willing hands.
Robert Mays, our present county
judge, and one of the feading stockmen
of the state, as well as one of its leading
business men. The Frencbs', Dan,
Smith and Josh, whose bank is one of
the solidest on the coast, and its money
backing stock, agricultural and mercan
tile interests through a large section of
Eastern Oregon. Z. F. Moody, banker
and warehouse owner: who filled the
governor's chair. Ben Snipes, at pies
ent of xaklma, who, while here was a
veritable cattle-king. Judge Liebe, who
won a competence at the anvil ; Col
Sinnott of the Umatilla, who time im
memorial has made his house a home
for the traveling public, and who ia one
of the widest known men in the state ;
Emil Schanno, brewer and real estate
owner; Max Vogt, owner of the band
some Vogt block, the opera house and
buildings and ranches innumerable; A.
H. Curtis; owner of the Diamond Mills
and - prouder of the reputation of his
flour than all- his other possessions
August Buchler, whose beer is sold in
half a dozen counties; W. Lord, man
Bger of the immenee Wasco warehouse
B. F. Laughlin, one of the originators of
the boat line; Hugh Glenn, contractor
and builder, now building the Gobet
Astoria railroad; and we might add to
the list, to show that women too are
capable of doing business, Mrs. Win
gate, who retired from business with
competence.
Of a later class the names are legion'
J. T. Peters, L. E. Crowe, E. C. Pease,
Ed Williams, H. Herbring, J. H. Cross
J. 8. Fish, L. Borden, Judge Blakeley
F. Ii. Houghton, Orion Kinersly, J. S
Scbenck, H. M. Beall, J. P. Mclnerny
J. Worsley, M. T. Nolan, N. Harris,
Maier & Benton, W. A. Johnson, D.
W. Vauae, C J. Crandall, C. F. Steph
en, E. Jacbsen, M. Donne 11, and a host
of others, represent the mercantile pur
suits, while Judge Bennet, E. B. Dutur,
S. Huntington, W. H. Wilson,
H. H. Ridilell. Frank Menefee and
Drs. Shackelford, Logan, ' Doane,
Hollister, Sutherland . and Eshelruan
represent the- professional. And it may
be seen that the younger generation
have not lost the example set them by
their elders. In. store and office the
bright Dalles boys are laying the founda
tion for future wealth and honors. In
deed, while we take pride all of as in the
solidity and reputation of the classes al
ready mentioned, we all have still
greater pride in the young folks just en
tering the portals of life's labors. They 1
are almost too numerous to mention,
and yet we cannot refrain from naming
few who, in the near future, will be
chining examples to the generation fol
lowing them Sinnott & Sinnott, Nick
and Roger, are at the law, and with
them we have Fritz Wilson, Bert Phelps,
Ned Gates and D. H. Roberts, while be
hind the counters of bank and store we
have Frank French;, just starting in busi
ness for hihsiself with a fine store, the
Vogt boys, Vrv French, F. W. Wilson,
Ed Wingate, thte. Clarke boys, Harry
Liebe, and a hundred others whom we
would like to name If Npace permitted,
or if it were possible to Nemember at
once all the bright-eyed healthy, yonng
fellows who are growing into manhood,
and whom it is a pleasure to know.
