The rivers continue to fall. The weath
er condition yesterday morning were
favorable for fair and warmer weather
today and Monday over the Columbia
river basin. There is but little more
snow in the mountains, so that no mat
ter how warm it may be, there is not
enough snow yet unmelted to influence
the falling rivers. The fall will bo from
.3 to .5 of a foot a day for four or more
days at Umatillaand at The Dalles, with
a corresponding fall elsewhere.
It has been pome time since The
Dalles has been visited by a good show,

We learn from J. E. Edwards, who
has recently returned from tiie Stickeen
River, that Capt. Johnston, the popular
skipper who ran the Dalles City for the
D. P. & A. N. Co., is employed on that
stream running a boat between Fort
Wrangle and Glenora, which is a trifle
over 150 miles. The fact that it takes
four days to run up stream and eight
hours to return will give an idea of
the swiftness of the Stickeen River
and the hazardous position which the
captain holds. At present the climate
is quite mild in that section and the
stories of mosquitos have not, accord
ing to Mr. Edwards account, been over
drawn in the least, as the pests make
life miserable for evervono living there.

"The Prodigal Father will be the at
traction at the Vogt opera house, Mon
day evening, June 27th. The piece was
of j evidently constructed for laughing pur
poses only, and It- fulfills Its mission.
The plot, which is very gauzy, centers
on the escapades of Stanley Dodge, who
misses his ship to Africa through flirt
ing with an actress. His son becomes a
prodigal, marries the actress and regu
lar mix-up results. The complie.itiniH
are of the most amusing kind, and the
fun is intense from stait to finish. To
properly interpret a farce comedy re
quires tho services of competent special
ty artists, for the success of such a play
depends largely on the introduction of
novelties.
The company presenting "The Prod
igal Father" has been carefully chosen,
and the many songs, dances and nied-
leva are rendered in such stylo as to
call fur t!i enthusiastic applause.
Lynn Welcher, who has starred in tho
play 'or the past three seasons, is con
sidered one of the best character actors
on the stage. Miss Rose Melville, who
assumes the leading female role, is a
young lady of preposessing appeatance,
and a decidedly clever actress. Her de
cidedly clever Imitation of "Sis Hop
kins, the jay girl from Slab Hollow," is
one of the hits of the vaudeville stage.

ets at this rate will be on sale on the
afternoon of July 2d, on July 3rd and

5th or Oth, according to the distance.
This is more of a reduction than the
company has been in the habit of mak
ing for this occasion, but in line with
the wide spreat' spirit of patriotism
throughout the country at this time,
they are anxious to offer as much in
ducement as possible to enable the peo
ple along this line to attend and partici

so many different points.
It has been some time since a theat

which appears here Monday evening,
will be greeted by a large audience.
Newspaper comments regarding this
play have been very flattering, and the
company has been well received wher
ever they have played.
