It seems that souio of the potty thlovcB
with whom other towns have been In
fested, have reached The Dalles, and It
would bo well for our citizens to bar the
doors and windowa more tightly. This
morning whoa Mr. Win, Michell got up
ii nd started to dress, he found that tils
pants, which he had hung over a chair
near his bedside, bad born stolen. For
tunately there was but $1.75 in the
pockets, nnd no doubt the burglar was
disappointed. Evidently they made no
attempt to burglariza further, as no
traces were found, while several small
articles of value were within easy ac
cess. Major W. S. Bowan arrived in this
city tin's morning. Major Bowan was
detailed bv Gov. Lord, us inspector of

Oregon inspecting tho different com

will end the major's duties on this side
of the mountains, as all of the other com

are ready to lend a hand in case the ex
pected trouble comes.

partner in the fishing business named
Swan Swanson left The DaMes for their
fishing grounds below Lyle, and, since
that time nothing has been seen or
beard of the two. Yesterday Mr. Jacob
son, of White Salmon, found their boat
near that place, and the supposition at
present is that they were drowned.
The hoat contained a number of arti
cles they had purchased while here, and
among the other things was a quantity
of whiskey. It is the supposition that
they became intoxicated, and falling

They had the advantage in being in at j - At tho Diamond Mills,
the start of the first sight of things. No
harsher sound than the slipping of the J Good milling wheat. Tho highest price

among those little blonde iieads in a;
savage world. Their father may have
made them kite?, end an up stream
wind could have been trusted to do the
rest; but the writer's memory of Mr.
Spalding is of one in whom the play
spirit had not survived into manhood.
