A dispatch to Local Weather Observer'
Brooks, received at 9 o'clock this morn
ing, says: "The Snake in last twenty-J
four hours rose .4 at Weisernnd fell .2 at j
Lewiston. The Columbia at Umatilla
rose .7 and at Wenatchee .8. The river
will rise here .8 a day until Monday
noon, when it will rise slowly for forty
eight hours. Warmer weather will pre
vail on headwaters of Columbia, begin
ning Sunday."
Tli W lite I'm.
Mr. Pagne's report yesterday shows a i
rapid rise in the riveis above, up to Fri
day morning. At Northport the Colum
bia rose 2.1!, at Wenatchee .9, at Lewis
ton .7 and at Weieer .i). The report
further says: The rivers all have a less
rise this morning, except at Northport,
where the effects of the warm weather
of Wednesday are already shown. The
cool weather occurred twenty-four hours
before it was expected, hence the rise by
Wednesday next will not be as much as
was looked for.
The river here at 7 o'clock was a"t 415,
a rise of .8 since yesterday morning.
From the above data it is probable the
45-foot mark will be reached here by
Wednesday, which will be about the
limit for this year.

THE SHERIFF GOT HIM.
Which SlicnvH Tluit There Are Mmiy
Wuyx or Oiling Thini;.
Boggs, the man who hired a team at
Rufus a week or so ueo from Bate Clark
and sold it, and who afterwards per
suaded the. widow Newsome to gather
her family around her and skip with
him, is ornamenting the interior of the
Wasco county juil this morning, with a
fair chance of soon having larger and
more permanent quarters in the peni
tentiary. When he left here on the boat, a tele
gram was sent to the officers at Port
land, but in some manner he eluded
them, and while they weie watching the
Southern Pacific trains, Boggs, the
widow and familv took the Northern Pa
cific for Seattle, and from that port the
boat for the haven of Victoria.
Sheriff Driver traced him up and de
termined to have him, so early this
week he went to Victoria. There before
an august justice of the peace he told of
Boggs sinning, and was promptly in
formed that hoise stealing was not an
extraditable offense. Driver knew thin,
but was out with a net to see what kind
of fish he could catch. To a gentle in
sinuation that the mw might be bent a
little, the Britisher returned a chilling
frost, with the assertion that "the law
was never bent in her majesty's do
minions." Then Tom took another tack
and sent parties to Boggs to hire him to
go over to Port Townsend to assist in
bringing over sheep. Boggs hadn't lost
nnv flhMn nn flip TrmrnH Kftituc cliln nf
the line. However, after much manipu-1
lation our sheriff in some manner per
suaded him to go on the boat and de
tained him until it pulled out. At any
rate, whatever the process was, he ar
rived here this morning in charge of the
sheriff and will have his trial next
week.
The widow Newsome and her four
children were left in Victoria. For her j
it was a sad ending of a brevet honey
moon, sweet spell that was too beautiful
to last, and that has probably ended for-
ever.
I.uht Day itt School. J
Last Friday, the 14th inst., witnesstd j
the closing of the Antelope public
schools for the present term and a large
number of the parents and other pat-1
rons of the school were present to hear
the exercises rendered by the pupils. .
Everyone of the pupils performed his j
or her part in a very creditable manner, i
and the program was an interesting and !
instructive one in every particular. The
brass band boys were also out in full
force, and rendered several of their beet '
selections.
Remarks were also made by Rev.
Leech, and the writer, both of whom 1
called attention to the fact that Miss i
Lewis was deserving of great credit for !
the able manner in which she had con
ducted the school under so many ad
verse circumstances. Miss Lewis also
thanked the parents and pupils for the
kind treatment they have given her, and
on Monday morning following she de
parted for her home in The Dalles, to

Thursday night Hood River shipped
about 500 crates of Strawberries, last
night over tiOO and tonight 'th'e ship
ment will reach the 1,000 mark, and yet
the season.is only begun. Next week
shipments will probably amount to
thirty tons a day. Just think of the
number of spoonfjfull of deliciouenesf
that would make; How many a young
fellow those red berries will tempt, to
blow, in his money just to see his best
girl drop theui clown inside of her corset,
while sbo smiles languishly at him, and
thinks with every swallow what a sucker
he is. Well. Hood River people will

will be paid by the aforesaid nuckerH,

low gets the worth ofhis money watch

has her share free, which is all profit to
her.

While ho was at (Jraigtown, which id

across the river and she was presented
with a big wooden key und the freedom
