all those barrels and vats.
It has been suggested that the outfit
belonged to the Columbia Packing Co.,
but this is fishy. We do not pretend to
draw any inference (or anything else)
from these barrels, for they are empty,
and yet well the barrels are there.

John Carter, a freighter, while on his
way from, Heppner to John Day, met
with an accident Monday that will in all
probability cost him a leg. One of the
front wheels of his wagon broke while
going down a steep hill. He was thrown
under the wagon, which passed over his
leg, crushing it in a frightful manner.
The team ran away. The wagon was a
total wreck, and part of the load was
ruined. One horse was killed.
A demented man of the name of
Woods, who has been roaming in the
timber near Jenny creek, in Jackson
county, was found by Sheriff Fitch, of
Klamath county, and a posse in search,
and taken to Klamath Falls, last week.
The man was nearly starved, was a
Frenchman, and 34 years of age. Sheriff
Fitch and Deputy B. T. Tiffany are to
conduct the unfortunate man to the
insane asylum at Salem, where he has
committed by the Klamath county au
thorities.
The managers of the fair have done
their part in arranging tor the fair ; the
citizens of The Dalles have done their's
in subscribing liberally 'for the purses
for the speed contests, and all that re
mains to be done to make the fair a sue
cess is that the farmers should display
their products and the citizens take an
interest, and the fair will be a grand
success. We suggest that on this occa
sion such farmers as have grown any
sugar beets bring them in and exhibit
them, and that arrangements be made
Jor shipping the lot to San Francisco
and having them tested.
Yesterday afternoon at Mosier, Willie
Waud, aged 6 years, was run over by

fatal injuries.

work train passed them,
np to the fence, which at
was built close to the track
and on the brink of a steep bank. He
climbed on the fence to watch the train
go by, and somehow lost his balance
and rolled under the cars. His right
leg was broken and mashed above the
knee, his left shoulder broken and hiB
left foot badly cut, while hia body was
pretty badly bruised.
Dr. Logan was telegraphed for, but
had a case on his hands he could not
leave. The railroad company offered to
send the boy here on a special, but the
grandparents objected, and Dr. Brosius
was summoned from Hood River. As
an amputation was judged necessary, he
had the boy brought here and at noon
today, after consultation with Doctors
Logan and Hollister, the operation was
determined upon. The poor little fellow
was placed under the influence of anas
tbetlcs, and Dr. Hollister, assisted by
Doctors Brosius and Logan, amputated
the leg about five inches above the knee.
The chances are largely against the boy
surviving the shock, but he has a fight
ing chance for bis life.
A pretty romance is told by the Bath,
Maine, Independent. The steamer
Areata, of which Captain Albert Reed
of Woolwich, Me., is commander, was
steaming from San Francisco to Port
land, Or., when it wsb hailed by a row
boat, containing two anxious individ
uals. The Maine captain stopped and
took them in. They were stalwart
youth and pretty maid and this was
their etory:
That their course of true love had
been ruffled by the maid's father and
they bad determined to elope in this
curious manner. Then they asked the
captain from Maine to marry them, for
it seems there is a law permitting this
if the steamer is sufficiently far from
land. The captain said, "Marry you?
Of course I will," and the bridal party
mounted the pilot house and the fol
lowing ceremony was performed : "Do
you, John, take this girl, Mary, to be
your wedded wife, to take care of in
sicknesB and in health, whether richer
or poorer in sunshine and if it blows
great guns and the wind is dead ahead?"
John said he did. . "And do you, Mary,
the captain continued, "take this man
John, as your wedded husband, whether
eats you well or ill, in calm weather
d in squalls and to always behave
burself like I should judge a trim
uilt clipper like you would, on the
uare?" Mary blushed and said,
lYes." The captain, after a moment's
lence, sternly remarked: "Well,
that's all, you're married !"
The gallant captain took the first kiss
for his fee and gave the young couple a
mighty jolly wedding trip.
1,000,000 People
IK the United States now enjoying food cooked in the MA
JESTIC affirm that the half has not been said in its
praise. The manufacturers of this Range pledge them
selves that all parts of the MAJESTIC except the firebox
and the new series Nbs. 201 to 212, are made of steel and mal
leable iron, and purchasers are assured that it is as good and
as honest as skilled labor and money can produce. If the parts
now in malleable iron were (as in other so-called steel ranges)
made of cast iron, the price could be greatly reduced ; but the
MAJ ESTIC is not made with n view to furnishing extra
parts for repairs.

Gems From the Pilot House.
The Regulator carries in her pilot
house a book for visitors to register their
names in, the book being also provided
with spaces for the visitors to recoid
their impressions. Some very pretty
things have been recorded therein. Mr.
Allaway, in examining it a few days
ago, ran across two. wnicn tie Kinaiy
copied for us. The first is from the
facile pen of one of the best story writers
in existence, Mrs. Ella Higginson of
Whatcom, and is a little gem ; the other,

FOUR-LEAF CLOVER.
I know a place where the sun is like gold.
And the cherry blooms burst with snow:
And down underneath is the loveliest nook
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
One leaf is for Hope, and one is for Faith,
And one is for Love, you know ;
And God put another in for Luck
If you search, you will find where they grow.
But you must have hope and you must have
taiin;
You must love and be strong, and so
If you work, if you wait, you will And the place
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.

Wheat From the Yukon.
The depaitment of the interior has re
ceived from Mr. Ogilvie, the dominion
surveyor now in the Yukon country, a
bunch of wbeat bearing the following
inscription on a card : "Grown at Fort
Cudahy from accidental planting in the
autumn of 1895. All from one root and
cut fourteen inches above the ground,
on September 7, 1896. August 27th,
Mr.. F. S. Gordon of Wamic expects I min. temp. 31.8 deg. ; August 31st, min.
the machinery to arrive soon for the
-40-barrel mill he is building at that
point. The building is going up rapidly
and Mr. Gordon expects to have the
mill in operation by the j.iddle of No
vember. The grand reunion of the soldiers and
sailors of Southern Oregon closed at
Gold Hill on Friday after a most suc
cessful and enjoyable time. The attend
ance was the largest in the history of
the organization. On the last day Gov
ernor Lord, Adjutant-General B. B.
Tuttle and General Beebe made ad
dresses. The next reunion will be held
temp., 27.2 deg.; September 1st, min.
temp., 27.1 deg.
This is probablv the first wheat ever
grown in the Yukon, and though not of
the highest grade, it demonstrates what
inav be done.
Crops have been good and prices are
high, and we are glad indeed to note
that most of our farmers are in prosper
ous condition. It puts them in position
to lift the mortgage from the farm, to
settle up old store bills, and to once
more be relieved of the worry attending
hard times. One of the smallest bills
they -owe is that to the country news
paper, and this is one they should 'be
first to pay. There is no business that
so quickly feels the existence of hard
times as the newspaper. Much, as the
farmer may desire to keep the paper
visiting him every week, it is one of the
things he can get along without. As a
compensation for tnis the newspaper
should be the first to feel the easing up
of money and the returns from bounti
ful crops.
Let The Chronicle, which has cheer
fully waited for its pay through the
years of adversity, be able to rejoice
with you in bounteous crops, good prices
and improved conditions.

Stores and Sunshine.
Eugene Field after visiting Europe,
said that the one thing he missed most
in his travels was the great American
stove. The first thing he did when he
got home was to write a poem, entitled
"Stoves and Sunshine," in which be
paid his respects to the stoveiess, cheer
less, shivering countries he had visited.
In the second veree, which we print
herewith, it will be seen that the poet
made an inexcusable mistake by writing
"Yankee" instead of Garland. Read
the verse and see, and then call on
Maier & Benton and see the stoves.
Now, I am of opinion that a person should get
some
Warmth in this present life of ours, not all in
that to come:
So when Boreas blows Lis blast through country
and through town.
Or when upon the muddy streets the stifling fog
rolls down,
Go, guzzle in the pub, or plod some bleak, mn
lArimiR crrnve.
Hut let me toast my shrunkeu shanks beside
some ankee stove.
