Mt. Angel college held Wednesday the
degree of B. A. was conferred upon W.
Bolton, of Kingeley; while Bert Bald
win, of The Dalles, was accorded the de-
i gree of bachelor of music.
Preparations are being made by the
fruit men of Walla Walla and that vi
cinity to hold a fruit fair in that city
next fall. Such a movement would be
a fine idea for the people of this city to
consider.
Mrs. A. C. Stubling & Son will soon
begin on the erection of a new hot house
especially for the culture of carnations
and violets. The increasing trade makes
this necessary and Mrs. Stubling feels
that her efforts will be appreciated by
her patrons. jel7
Altercations will occur in the best of
famlliee, as was proven yesterday when
an Indian "brave" had a heated discus
sion with his klootchman on Second
street. Constable Hill arrested him,
but he wa3 allowed his liberty after
promising to live peaceably hereafter.
The executive committee wish to re

mansion of a double celebration, utit
aU the fireworks in readiness.

it has been partitioned.and the east half !
will be used by H. Glenn as a ware

rical company lias visited Tho Dalles,
and no doubt tho "Prodigal Father,"
which appears hero Monday evening,
will be greeted by a largo audience.
Newspaper comments regarding this
play have been very flattering, and the
company lias been well received wher
ever they have played.
Wednesday evening Mrs. Geo. Her
bert'returned from CascadeJ)ckH, where
she had been vialtliu her sister, Mrs.
Geo. Morgan. She reportsMr. Morgan
as being much worse, and it is feared he
!!! live but a few days. Although re-
allzlng his condition, ho is quite cheer-,
ful, and has expressed u desire to once
more see his intimate friends in mis
city.

At a meeting ol Harmony Temple,
No. 12, Rathbono Sisters, held last
evening, tho following officers were
elected: M. E. C, Llllio Gavin ; E. S.,
Viola Rorden ; E. J., Laura Blakeney ;
Manager, Julia Driver; M. of R. and C,
Minnie Gosser; M. of F Susan Wal
there; G. O. T., Nellie Thompson; P. ot
l., LUlie Waud; Trustee, Alice Cros
sen; Delegate, Minnie Gosser. At the
close of election ico cream and cake
were served and a general good time
was had.
Last Wednesday, at Mosler, Alex.
Stewart and Rachel Rowland were unit
ed in marriage by Rev. G. W. White.
A large number of the friends of the
bride and gronm were present, and it
was ne of the happiest weddings that
has ever occurred in Mosier. The deco
rations were profuse and beautiful, and
the number of substantial presents re
ceived proved the popularity of the
young couple. Mr. J. N. Mosier acted
as best man, while Mrs. J. M. Mosier
was bride's maid. All did'justice to the
bountiful dinner which was served, and
joined in wishing them peace and happi
ness. The women's edition of the Walla
Walla Union has just been issued at
that place. The number of editions be
ing edited solely by women nowadays
proves the fact that they are not back
ward in entering even newspaper work,
and the editions so far edited by them
have been very creditable. While we
do not doubt that women will prove
equally as successful as men in this line,
remembering that what man has done
(or hasn't) woman can do, yet these
editions would not be sufficient proof of
the fact, had theynot given evidence of
their ability in that field long since.
The novelty of an occasional edition is
very different from the daily grind of an
editor's life, or even a reporter's.
Comini's goat, the most popular ani
mal on Second street, got into serious
trouble yesterday, when somo boys,
with malice alorethought and malicious
intent, decorated his stab tail with a
can. As soon as he discovered it, sup
posing he was to take part in a chari
vari, he started hurriedly toward the
clerk's oifico for the purpose of determin
ing who had obtained a licenee. Find
ing, before going far, that lie was the
center of attraction, he seriously ob
jected and bolted up the etairs leading
to the law offices in ttie French block
for judicial inteference. How the diffi
culty was adjusted has not been deter
mined ; but EUificc to say he was quieted
down befere,in his mad efforts to rid
himself of the appendage, he was
churned into "butter."
Although vacation has just begun, it
will not be many weeks before prepara
tion for the fall term of school will com
mence. While our schools have been
so successfully conducted, there has al
ways been a drawback in regard to se
curing pupils fiom the outside country,
which could be obviated if there were
only some place provided where those
coming from a distance could secure
home-comforts. Many are sent to school
in the Willamette valley who would
otherwise remain here were it not for
this objection. St. Mary's academy fur
nishes such a home for those who wish
to attend that school, but those who de
sire to attend the high school find it al
most impossible to secure boarding
places such as would be required by pu
pils. Would it not be a paying invest
ment for some motherly matron to con
template the matter and start such a
home when school begins'.'

!l Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock,
'while her husband, relatives and friends
weru watching by her bedside, Mrs.
Serene Ferguson, wife of G. A. Fergu

ness did not seem, until tho last few

some weeks ago, when her husband

shocked to find her so much worse than

consumption. Shu was brought to this
city about ten days ago, and everything

TOMAHAWK, OR PIPE OF PEACE.
An I lid Inn Curio of Grout .Vnltio Owned
by livl(l I'd It
Of late years tho fad of collecting In
dian relics has become general among
those who have the tneaiiR or n tasto for
curios, and In our own city b number of
persons have collections which are of
great value, and will become more so as
the years roll by. Ono of tho finest
specimens of Indian art that wo have
ever seen is now In tho possession of
Mrs. Booth, ot this city, and is the
property of Mr. David Fulton, of- Sher
man county. It Is a tomahawk or pipe
of poace, which would seem to bo rather
a queer combination to those unac
quainted with Indian custom. Little ia
known of this curious pieco of mechan
ism, but it is supposed to be a hundred
years old and worth as many dollars.
Mr. Fulton purchased it from a Wasco
puin Indian, named Poo, soveral years
ago, w;ho was greatly in need of money
at the time. He said that it had be
longed to a chief in his tribe, and it waB
afterward discovered that there was
great diesatisfactiou among his people
because Peo had parted with It. It is
thought that it was probably purchased
from tho tribes of Northern Indians,
with whom these Indians at that time
had commercial relations.
The instrument is much tho shape of
a hatchet, the length of the blade, which
is copper, being six inches and the
width at the bottom, which at one time
must have been very sharp, measuring
three inches. At the top of the blade is
a bowl two inches deep and an inch
across, which served as the bowl of the
pipe. The handle and steam combined
is sixteen inches long and of iron
wood, highly ornamented with brass
tacks and copper wire.
This was one ot tho many kinds of
tomahawks used by the Indians in war
fare. The pipe, it is said, was for an
entirely different purpose. At the
councils, which were held when any
subject for discussion or adjustment
came up between the tribes, after each
had etated hia grievance and it was de
cided to settle the difficulty by the
transferring of so many horses, blankets,
etc., a circle was formed and the pipe of
peace filled and passed from one to the
other, from which each one present took
a puff.
The value of the instrument is en
hanced from the fact that the art of
tempering the copper is a lost one, the
only Indian who knew it having died
without transmitting the secret. Cop
per was bought by the Indians from the
Hudson Bay Company, and was in
sheets, wiiich they teinpeted and then
UBed for different purposes.
Mr. Fulton values this relic veiy
highly, and could not be induced to part
with it. .
The O. R. & N. Co. has added many
improvements to the Bonneville picnic
grounds, and this beautitul spot is now
in excellent order. During the summer
season tickets will be sold at The Dalles
to Bonneville and return every Sunday
for the low rate of $1 for the round trip.
Tickets will be sold for train No. 3, leav
