Yesterday morning, when Jack l'ow" ers went into his room over the White House saloon, in this city, lie found that someone had broken' in and cut open a valise in fhich he kept his clothing. Upon examination be found- that a suit of clothes cud eotno other articles of wearing apparel were missing. He xt- ' peated the robery to the officers and as yet no clew to the robber has been found. The burglars who have been operating in our city are evidently still with us. Sometime Monday night Eomeone at- J tempted to make an enttance into Mrs. T. S. Lang's residence by removing a wire screen Irom toe window. Some thing evidently occurred to scare him oil", however, as he did not succeed in affecting an entrance. , Yesterday afternoon quite a crowd gathered on the beach to witness the launching of the new ferry boat. Every thing about the launching passed off smooth, and as soon as possible the ma chinery will be placed into the boat and it will be put into service. It is a neat little craft r.nd will be a great improve ment on the present ferry. Word was received in this city that Harry Hunt, who for several years served as bookkeeper for Seufert Bros., when they were in business in this place, and also for the O. K. & N. Co., at this place, had died in a California insane asylum. Mr. Hunt was a kind-hearted genial man and had many friends in The Dalles who will be grieved to hear of his sad and untimely end. A. II. Baldwin, one of the piledriver crew at work on the railroad bridge at Aberdeen, had a very unpleasent experi ence Hilda narrow escape from being crushed to death last week. He was struck on the left arm. near the shoulder by the hammer of the driver, which bruised tiie flesh od almost from shoul der to wrist. Fortunately, it was glanc ing blow, and no bones were broken.

LEONDOR BROS.' SHOW. It Is a Ills' Attraction ana Always Will Draw Crowds. The Portland Tribune of April 14th says of this show : "We get more than our money's worth" was the general acclamation of those who attended Leondor Bros' big show in their large tent, cornor of Tenth and Clay. I can be safely asserted that it presents more novelties and gives better satisfaction than many shows of its kind and circutes which charge much larger admieslon prices. One of the greatest attractions of the show is the lively monumental foun tain statuary act of the Leondor Bros., which never fails to bring them well merited applause. Another strong attraction is Marco S. Lefton's contor tion act; also the Black wire walkiug of Prof. La Falle. Among the other numerous performers can be Been an aggregation of first-class tumblers, acrobats, gymnasts, con tortionists and clowns. Leondor Bros.' show is as great an attractionj for grown-up people as for children and from day to day the at tendance has increased. The show is going to remain the balance of the week and the public should not fail to visit it. The show runs smoothly from start to finish and as there is only one ring.every act can be seen." This show will be in The Dalles today and tomorrow and ie a performance worthy of the patronage of Tho Dalles people. NEW ASSISTANT ATTORNEY.

ENCAMPMENT OPENED LAST EVENING IN AN APPROPRIATE MANNER. Speech! m of Welcome Mmlo ty Kcjire imitative Cltlieni--lteioiulc(l to ity VUltornOrdep of Exer cise for Today, Yesterday the members-of the G. A. R., Sens of Veterans and W. R. C. be gan to arrive on the morning trains ; more came on the 5 120 train, while the principal part of tho excursionists ar rived on the boat, which, on account of delays, did not come until about 8 o'clock. As soon as tho boat whistled the Dalles people began to crowd to the dock, and by the time it had' landed the wharf was lined with hundreds of peo ple, who camo to welcorWthe old veter ans. There were about 250 aboard tho boat, who were immediately taken in charge by the reception' committee. Owing to the lateness of the arrival of the boat, the exercises at the opera house did not commence until 9 o'clock. At that time the house was crowded, and it was impossible for all to find seats. The building was beautifully deco rated, particularly the stage, which was festooned with our national colors, and in the center of which was a mina- ture representation of the Maine. At the back was a representation of the white house, well lit with different col ored jets. On the platform was seated a number ot the visitors, members of the G. A. R., S. of V., W. R. C. of our city and the speakers of the evening. The exercises were opened by the Dalles orchestra in a selection which was a medley of all the patriotic airs. It was received with great enthusiasm, especially when the strains of "Star Spangled Banner" were heard and the flag was waved from the stage. Capt. Lewis, as chaisman of the even- in?, called upon Rev. W, C. Curtis, who offered a most appropriate prayer. Mayor Nolon, being introduced, gave tha honored guests such a heartv and eloquent welcome in behalf of the city that they certainly felt we were more than glad to receive them in our midst. "Columbia" was then rendered by the orchestra. Mr. N. J. Sinnott then appeared in behalf of the D. C. & A. C, and among other things said that tiie Commercial Club considered it a great honor to be permitted to open its doors to such dis tinguished and honored visitors. He then paid a high tribute to the G. A. R. and Sons of Veterans, and closed by saving that he believed their days had been Providentially lengthened until this auspices hour in the history of our nation that they might Bee how nobly their eons would follow in their footsteps and honor them. After another selection by the orches tra, Captain J, W. Lewis made a pleas ing address of welcome on behalf of J. W. Nesmith Post, No. 32, which was such a one as no one but a veteran like the Captain could feel or express. This was responded to by General Reisner, department commander, in an able an euergetic speech, full of patri otic sentiments, which was received with applause by the delighted audi ence. After another selection by the orches tra, Mrs. Mamie Wagley Briggs ren in Onslhol jsand stvlcs and bizes. For cooking and heating. Price from $io to $70, Often Imitated. Never equalled. next In quality to "Garlands." MAIER & BENTON, dered an eloquent address In behalf of the Woman's Relief Corps. Time and time again tiie speaker was interrupted by the cheers of the audience In con cluding Mrs. Briggs snoke of the aims and ohjeclB of tho Woman's Relief Corps, and narrated at length thu good done by tho noblo toclety of noble wo men, not only in aiding In the social duties of the G. A. R., but In helping to build up that society. Mrs. Gwilt, department president of the Relief Corps, was the next to speak. Sho Ib certainly another of those patri otic women of whom wo may well feel proud, and the speech which she mado last night was sufficient proof of this. Hon. A. A. Jay-no then delivered n short, but beautitnl, address of welcome to the Sons of Veterans. This was responded to by Colonel Melvern, post commander of the Sons of Veterans. Though last, this respome was not least in fervor and eloquence; but was pithy and appropriate. The meeting closed by all joining in singing "America." TODAY'S t'ltOOKAM.
