Quite a lot.of excitement was caused
Sunday evening by a horse running
away with 12-year-old boy named
Dell Haywood, The boy got on the
horse on Fourth, street and some young
sters scared the animal by throwing
rocks at it. It took a spurt 'up the
Mothodlst lilll and from O. D. Taylor's
residence turned west as far as' the Bap
tist church, where it was Btopped.. Tho
boy was not hurt although badly scared,
and what might have been a serious ac
cident turned out lucky for all con
cerned.

This shows the intention of our towns
people to decorate for the encampment
and we hope this examplo will be fol
lowed by everyone in regard to their
homeB and places of business.
rercy teott, wuo was lormerlv wine
clerk in the Umatilla House, was among
the excursionists who were in the city
Sunday. While here he renewed his
acquaintance with Fen Batty and his
other friends, on whom he made short,
but appreciated calls. In spite of the
pleasure he took in meeting the Dalles
boys, he returned on the first division
of the excursion train, while it is unnec
essary to say that Fen was at his post as
night clerk promptly at G.
The ladies bowling team of this city
has decided to attend the tournament at
Portland Friday, and will consist of the
following ladies : Meedames T. J. Seu
fert, Bradsbaw, Houghton, George
Blakeiey, and Misses Alma Schanno
and Annie Lang. The ladies' as well as
the gentlcmeu's team will leave Friday
morning and will in all probability re

certain as to whether all the ladies
named will be able to go, but in such an
event others will fill the vacancies.
Mrs. Hill, a niece of Mrs. C. F. Steph
ens, left on yesterday morning's boat for
her home in Portland after a short visit
in this city. Mrs. Hifl is probably the
only lady on the coast who holds a cap
tain's paperc. Since she has been mar
ried to Captain Hill she has taken a
great interest in navigation and while on
their little steamer, the Newhall, she
took a captain's license, since which
time she has served at tiie wheel while
Mr. Hill has acted as engineer. Mrs.
Hill is known all over the coast and has
received tributes from many of the
newspapers for her ability as a captain.
The Red Men's excursion is a thing of
the past, A very large crowd of people
was in our city yesterday, aud the visi
tors seemed beent strictly on pleasure,
As is the case on all such accaslons, a
number of tough characters were among
those who came, but there were were
also a number of the best people of Port
land among the excursionists. Fault
was found by some of our citizens for
not having n brass hand and other means
of receiving and entertaining tho gueBts.
However, the Portland people had all to
do with the preparations and our people
probably overlooked this matter. The
visitors were granted all necessary priv
ileges in order that they might enjoy
themselves, and no fault can be found
with the hospitality of the people of this
city. The two sections of the train
pulled out between 6 :30 and 0, and, on
leaving, everyone seemed satisfied with
the treatment they had received,
occurred at
Grass Valiev Sunday afternoon. Word
was sent in that John C. O'Leary had
been shot, but the seriousness of tho in
jury was not stated, and the evening pa
per wan misinformed as to CharlesPiiuo
having committed tho crime.
' The shooting was done by a ycung
itnan named Fred Walker, who is about
21 years old, but the cause of the shoot
line has not been lenrnnd more thnn that
kt was over some business transaction.
UWftlker used a Winchester rifle and
tho ball struck O'Leary in the teg, scat
tering tho bone badly. As he is a man
advanced in years and will in all proba
bility have to have tho leg amputated,
somewhere below tho knee joint, it
will go hard with him. He will be
taken to St. Vincent's hospital today for
treatment.
After tho Bhooting Walker mounted
his horse and rode away, and, although
a rossee has been searching the country
for him, he has not yet been found.
Walker is about 21 years of age, five
feet ten'inches tall and weighs one hun
dred and fifty pounds. When last seen
he way riding a dapple grey horse, and,
probably under the impression that he
has killed O'Leary, he may make a des
perate fight before he will surrender.
Mrs. O'Leary, who lives in this city,
left for her husbands bedside Sunday
evening and will accompany him
to Portland todav.
INTERESTING EXPERIENCE
or
an Iowa Lady Who Wan Cured of
Dyspepsia After Suffering for
Twenty-flve Years.
Mre. Sarah A. Sfeeele; an estimable
lady residing at Lynnville, Jasper Co.,
Iowa, was for twenty-five years a sufferer
from dyspepsia, and her comp'ete res
toration to health is so remarkable that
we present the facts iu the case for the
benefit of our readers, many of whom
have doubtless suffered in the same
manner, and will, therefore, be inter
ested in learning how all stomach trou
bles may be avoided and cured. Mrs.
Skeelseaye: I used only one package
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets und I re
ceived such a great and unexpected ben
efit that I wish to express my sincere
gratitude. In fact, it lias been six
months since I took the medicine and I
have not had one particle of distress or
difficulty since. And all thiB in the face
of the fact that the best doctors I con
sulted told me my case was incurable as
I had suffered for tweuty-fivo years. I
want half a dozen packages to distribute
among my friends here, who are very
anxious to try this remedy.
Truly youre,
Mas. Saiuh A. Skeels.
The reason why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are so successful in curing indi
gestion and stomach trouble and the
reason why it never disappoints those
who need it and use it iB because noth
ing is claimed for it except what it will
actually perform. It is not a cure-all
and no such claims are made for it. It
is prepared for the sole purpose of curing
Dyspepsia and the various forms of in
digestion.
