WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.
Random Observations ana Local Events
of Lesser Magnitude.
This being a legal holiday, the banks
and all public offices are closed.
Remember the auction sale of Cbas.
Frazier's fruit ranch on Saturday, July
17th, at 1 :30 p. m., In front of Bayard's
office, on Washington etreet.
Recorder Phelps has been very busy
the last few days winding up the year's
business for the city. He has just com
pleted the work and now baa the books
balanced up to date.
The excursion given by the Regulator
company to Potland was well patron
ized. The Regulator left this morning
about 6 o'clock with a full cargo of cele
bratorB, and arrived at Portland some
time before 12 o'clock.
Cbas. Frazier will sell his fine fruit
farm in Thompson's addition on Satur
day, July 17th, at public auction, as
business of importance demands his at
tention in the Fast.
The potato crop will be a record
breaker in Gilliam this year, says the
Fossil Journal. Contrary to the usual
course of things, there was rain almost
throughout the month of June, and the
"spuds" have profited by the moisture,
The highest daily bowling scores for
last week are as follows : Monday, C.
N. Clark, 46; Tuesday, Mrs. Judd Fisb,
45 ; Wednesday, Judge Bradehaw, 51 ;
Thursday, Judge Bradshaw, 55; Friday,
Vic Schmidt, 55; Saturday, Judge Ben
nett, 41.
Among those receiving appointments
to federal positions we note that of C.
W. Rice, formerly of The Dalles, to the
office of postmaster at Lake view, Oregon.
It is seldom Dalles people get left, and
we are glad to note that Mr. Rice has
come to the front.
The wool clip of Yakima county has
all been sold, with the exception of three
clips at North Yakima and four at Mab
ton, says Ranch and Range. James
Bigham and T. H. Smith, of Yakima,
each sold last week 20,000 pounds of
to C. Carmichael, for 7 cents.
The new council will be called together
this evening, but owing to the fact that
this is a legal holiday no business will
be transacted and the mayor will make
no appointments. A meeting will prob
ably be called next Wednesday evening,
when the appointments will be made.
The 4th was rather a quiet day in The
Dalles. The recorder only had two D.
D.'b, one being fined $5 and the other
$10. A drunken sheepherder broke a
window in one of the saloon's, cutting
bia wrist, so that it was necessary to call
in medical aid. At the present writing
he is resting easy.
At bis farm, near Weston, daring a
thunder shower recently, W. H. Pruett
tied a calf to the fence near his barn,
and started for the house. He bad
hardly gone fifty yards before a blinding
flash came, quickly followed by a peal of
thunder. The calf was found dead.
There were no marks on the animal's
body to indicate that it had been struck
bv lightning, but there is no other
theory to account for its sudden tak-ing-off.
If you are buying ' children's and
misses low shoes, it will be of interest
for you to know that A. M. Williams &
Co. have put on their bargain counters
an aseortment in sizes from 8' to 2, at
75 cte. and $1. These same shoes in tan
and black sold regularly at from $1.50 to
$2.40 per pair.
A party consisting of Mr. and Mrs. H.
W. French, Mr. E. M. Williams and
Miss Sampson left this city for Hood
River Saturday, and yesterday morning
were driven to Cloud Cap Inn." A tele
phone message from Mr. Williams this
morning informed his friends that they
were enjoying a genuine snow storm.
A man confined in the city jail last
night jammed his band through the
window in his wild desire for freedom.
As the doctor sewed up the-gashea made
by the broken glass, the prisoner's long
ing for the wild freedom of the hills van
ished, and be expressed a desire to enjoy
the borne comforts of the jail instead.
The bowling alley at the Umatilla
House was opened today, with a grand
galaxy of the leading lights of the city
present. Among those bowling the first
game were, Col. Sinnott, Judge Brad
shaw, M. A. Moody, I. J. Norman, Judd
Fish and about a dozen others. The
boys who set up the pins were daisies,
but we are not going to give them away.
The alleys are fine, and will, no doubt,
receive an abundant patronage.
Dufur bad a big time Saturday, doing
everything there was to do on the occa
sion of the nation's birthday and having
a barbecue besides. Mr. N. J. Sinnott,
our talented young townsman, delivered
the oration, which thoBe who heaid it
say was out of the usual line and was a
splendid effort. There was a big crowd,
and to say that everybody en joyed them
selves is simply a repetition of the
statement that they spent the 4th in
Dufur.
Just to show that misfortunes never
come singly, the Garfield Enterprise
says that M. V. Butler, who lives four or
five miles east of Garfield, lost a milch
cow last week. She laid down and died.
In no very cheerful frame of mind, Mr.
Butler harnessed one horse and hitched
it to the cow to drag it away. When
be tried to 6tart, the horse could not
pull it. Mr. Butler thought the horse
was grunting more than it was pulling,
bo he picked up a stick and bit it a
wback. The horse reared and fell back
on the cow, dead.
Hundreds of thousands have been in

AT CAMP JACKSON.
Fine
Location ami
Gathering.
Notable
The encampment at Hood River is
over. J. he boys in blue and brass but
tons have folded their tents and silently
stole away. The white tents have van
ished, and with them have disappeared
the hopes and hearts of many of Hood
River's fair damsels. There is nothing
catches the female mind like a soldier's
uniform, with a soldier inside of it.
The encampment grounds were beauti
fully located, and the whole affair was a
success from start to finish. Saturday
evening Governor Lord visited the boys
and reviewed them.
At Hood River town, the G. A. R. had
a big 24-pounder cannon, and arranged
for giving the governor a salute of
twenty-one guns. The cannon was
planted in the old school house grounds
and when the governor arrived, Com
rade Hunt of the G. A. R. touched her
off. There was a flash and a reverbera
tion that made Mt. Hood tremble. The
gun was the only thing that kicked dur
ing the encampment. There was only
one shot fired, because it was too ex
pensive, that shot breaking several of
the windows in the school bouse. At
Camp Jackson, though, there were no
windows to be broken, and the guns
belched forth a welcome to the "Commander-in-chief,"
that could be heard
over half of Wasco county.
The camp proved a great attraction,
many visitors coming from The Dalles
and Portland, while half of Hood River
valley turned out to see the boys.
Our reporter was handicapped by
knowing a good many of the officers, as
well as the high privates, and it was
only by an effort he could change the
greeting, "Hello Billy," to "Ah ! Glad
to see you General." He wasn't "up"
lu epaulets, and so had to aim high,
realizing that to call a captain "general"
was all right, but to call a major "cap
tain," inexcusable.
The boys broke camp last night and
went to Portland this morning, to take
part in the big parade there today.
The encampment was a grand success,
and gave the boys a taste of camp life
and discipline that will be of great bene
fit to them, and will develope a keener
interest in matters militarv.

who, while extending to her their best
wishes, are neveri helessgrieyed to think
that she leaves The Dalles.
The bride and groom left on the 1
o'clock train for La Grande, where they
will reside in the future.
Sunday evening after vespers at the
Catholic church, in the presence of a
few friends, Mr. W. M. Floyd and Miss
Katie Craig were united in marriage by
Rev. BronegeeBt.
Mr. Floyd is well known by all resi
dents, of The Dalles, as he was foreman
in the railroad shops for a number of
years, and nntil they were moved. He
has the same position at the shops in
La Grande, where is a most prominent
and influential citizen.
The bride is one of whom we all feel
proud, having been brought up in The
Dalles from her infancy. Possessed of
a charming disposition and a most envi
able character, she has hosts of friends,
The Dalles has been deserted for the
last few days, most of the people having
gone to Portland, while not a few have
taken advantage of the holiday to visit
Hood River, Bonneville and Dufur. We
have heard of one party that in
tended returning yesterday afternoon,
but one of the party, who was sent to
hire the team, told Tom Ward that he
wanted a horse that would balk when
wanted, and Tom, who is always accom
modating, supplied the necessary article.
After spending a pleasant day up Mill
creek, the picnicers started home, when
the driver, who had hired the horse,
gave the necessary jerk to the lines for a
balk, and forthwith the horse balked.
That was very enjoyable and everyone
had a good laugh. After the fun had
died out the driver, following out Tom's
instructions as he thought, gave the
signal to go ahead, but something
went wrong, either he forgot or the horse
did not stop upon the order of going, but
refused to move. The team was on a
hill and every one in the wagon had to
get out and push, and push they did
until the top was reached, when it de
cided to go. They arrived home about
12 o'clock, and the young man says that
he will never ask for a balky horse
again. '
Rettie & Patterson of Gilliam county
have squared up with The Dalles Na
tional bank, aud did not lose a cent. In
fact, it seems they owed the bank a few
dollars, which they have paid, says the
Fossil Journal. They were agreeably
surprised at the state of affairs. They
had about $800 in the bank and owed the
bank $800, which they expected to have
to pay in full and take what tbey could
get of the $800 in deposit, but it appears
that there is a law which provides that
the one account shall offset the other.
John Dysart of Condon had a similar
experience to the extent of about $500,
and in like manner has not loBt a single
cent. Oi egonian .
