Salmon, who want a public road laid out
"long the foot of the bluff.
Edward J. McBee made homestead
filing on Hood River lands today, tliey
being a portion of section 4, in township

a largo tract of land in the immediate

taken up.

veniber term of the court to a referee tp
take and report the testimony, Judge

Tho Woodmen's Circle held a social
session last night after the regular ses
sion, tho latter feature being in honor of
the return of Mrs. Filloon from the su
preme lodge at St. Lonia. An address of
welcome was delivered by Mrs. Ella
Cushing, which was responded to by
Mrs, Filloon. This was followed by
banjo and guitar music by Mr. Parkins
and Slums, eolo by Onarlea Clarke,
farce by members of the order and song,
"Going Back to Dixie," by the ladles,
tho program concluding with a tableau
representing the mottoes of the order,
"Love, Wisdom and Power." The ac
tion of Mrs. Filloon and the other dele
gates to the supreme lodge, leaving the
old order, was indorsed, and the lodge
will affiliate with the Pacific jurisdic
tion. An attempted burglary last night at
A. M. Williams & Co. 's that is it
might have been, but the burglar un
doubtedly was disappointed at finding
those nobby, all-wool Buits marked
down to only $10, so cheap that stealing
them would have been deemed an ex
travagance. This morning it was reported'that an
attempt to burglarize Williams & Co.'s
store had been made last night, and later
Johnston's store had been broken into.
When traced down it proved to be that
Nightwatchman Wiley last night found
tho back door at Johnston's open, but it
had not been properly fastened, and had
been blown partly open by the wind.
Yesterday appropriate programs were
presented in tho different departments
of The Dalles public schools in observ
ance of Arbor day. No trees were
planted, as the giounds are supplied
with a sufficient number, the last work
in this way being in January of the
present year, when eighteen trees were,
by order of the board, set out in the East
Hill primary grounds.
Mrs. Lyman Daly met with a serious
accident this morning, just how serious
cannot yet be determined. Mr. Daly
was bringing her and their two little
children to town at an early hour, they
intending to take the boat for Vancou
ver. Coming down S-Mile hill one of
the wheels of the wagon ran into a
ditch alongside of the road, and Mrs.
Daly was thrown off the seat, falling on
the wheel. Her right lower jaw was
badly fractured, and she received a se
vere concussion of the brain, which ren
dered her unconscious. She was brought
into town and taken to the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Meins, where Dr.
Hollister reduced tho fracture and at
tended to her other injuries. Her con
dition is dangoroue, but she may pull
through all right.
Nick Kinnott and "Nemo," before
they get the matter off their hands, will
wish they had never toyed with Cissy
Sideways of Dufur. Their profuseness
of apology to that now famous young
collective noun of tho female gender,
has proven a caso of jumping out of tne
trying pan into the fire. It seems now
that the aforementioned gentlemen are
in more than a peck of trouble at
home. When tho Dispatch appeared in
Tho Dalles containing their "billet
doux" addressed to the "Indignant
Thirteen," It created a flury in the local
feminine circles, and they were imrne
diated accused of flirting with tho young
ladies of this berg, and the next Sun
day evening were treated with such a
degree ot sang frold, they had an at
tack of chilli and fever and made a per
cipitate retreat. Never inind, boys,
patch the affair up as well as you can
at home, and we'll smooth It down
here. Dufur Dispatch.

The funeral of Pearl Butler took place
from the family residence this morning,
and in compliance with her request,
made but a short time beforo her death,
the ceremonies were very brief. The
floral offerings were profuse and beauti
ful, tho grave being covered with them.
Among the many beautiful pieces were
one from the Sunday school class to
which she belonged, another from the
graduating class of '90, of which she was
a member, and one from tho W. C. T.
U. Also a very pretty floral ship, wh'ch
had been presented to Pearl when she
was graduated, and which had been re
arranged in hyacinths.
Despite the terrible wind and dust
storm, a large number of sorrowing
friends followed all that was mortal of
Pearl Butler to the cemetery and saw
her placed by the side of her siBter, who
so recently preceded her into the valley
of the shadow. The floral pieces on Jes
sie's grave had all been refilled, and as
the sad cortege turned hack from tho
graves, the sisters slept side by side un
der masses of flowers, typical ot the in
nocence and purity of those beneath,
and of those flowers of the field of Ar
dath, whose white, star-like blooms for
ever kiss the feet of the children of men
who have returned to their home with
God.

That The Dalles ladies thoroughly ap
preciate fine millinery, and know where
to find it was shown by the attendance
yesterday afternoon and eyening at the
grand Easter opening at" Mrs. Briggs'
millinery parlors. It wis conceJed by
all that it was the finest display of the
kind ever made in the city, and the
beautiful and artistic creations called
forth many expressions of admiration.
The shapes are about the same, but
larger, and the triuimiugs show quite a
difference from those ot last year. They
are much more elaborate, and red leads
all other colore, the hats from the East
most distinctly shewing the difference.
The windows werej most beautifully dec
orated, but these were lost on the ladies
who went there toi see hats, nnd would
not or could not see anything else. We
don't blame the dear creatures for ad
miring thorn, for alter seeing her try on
a dozen of those hats, wo came near
falling in love with our own wife. The
ladies are to be congratulated on having
bo fine a selection to choose from, and
Mrs. Briggs to bo commended for pro
viding it.

The two families of Mr. Jos. Kiser
and Mr. McChristian of tho Arkansas
colony have been having a serious time
with measles for the past two weeks.
A late arrival from Arkansas contracted
the disease while en route and broke
out with it soon after arriving here,
The old gentleman, Joseph Kiser, who
is 76 years old, was stricken with par
alysis three weeks ago and now lies per
fectly helpless. The younger members
of the families, to the number of tea,
lathered at the old gentleman's house
to care for him, and all, except Joseph
Kiter, were taken with the measles
uhout the same time. Tho sick persons
were unable to properly help them
.selves, were without a change of cloth
ing and short of food, nnd their condi
tion was desperate. Mrs. Alma Howe
sent them some bed clothing and has
been furnishing them milk. Mr. It. M.
Hunt and wife liavo been in constant
attendance on the unfortunate people,
setting up with them at nights and ad
ministering to their wants in every way
possible for them to do. Mrs. Rogers, a
lady who has been canvassing tho val
ley for tho sale of books, called at tho
Kiser house Tuesday, and when she
found the folks in such a bad plight,
decided at once to help them. She
went to Mrs. W. T. Hanshury and pro
cured a suit of old clothing, and with
the assistance of Mrs. Ilansbury,
cleaned up the house and made the in
valids more comfortable. Rev. J. L.
Hershner called Tuesday and afterwards
interested the town people in the case
and collected clothing nnd money for
the sufferers. Glacier.

We owe an apology to Mr, Hardy,
the gentleman who told the Oregonian
there was dust in The Dalles', and also
to the Oregonian in questioning tho cor
rectness of its information in yes
terday's issue. Then the air was balmly
and soft, as a summer gir)', the streets as
quiet as a sleeping babe. It was not
that way today. All he spirits from
the cave of the winds were out on a
jamboree, and there' were whirlwinds
and whirlpools of blinding, choking,
smothering dust. It'came from all points
of the compass at once, and went in all
directions at the same time, filling store
and residence with its gritty presence,
and the air with profanity that traveled
far and fast. Yes, there is Eorne dust in
The Dalles, and we aro free to confess
that our statement yesterday entitles
us to tho highest office in the gift ot the
Sazerac lying club.
