The Umatilla Indians have concluded
their Fourth-of-July celebration. It be
gan on the 3rd and ended on the 12th
About 700 - Indians, including visitors
from other agencies in Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho, participated. The
principal amusements of the Indians
were dancing, horse racing, parades,
gambling and loitering in the ehade.
The gambling game was "stick," and
money, blankets, hats and saddles were
won and lost. This game is one purely
of chance, and becomes exciting to the
Indian, but be is always fair in his deal
ings. Whenever he loses be gives np
his goods as freely as he takes them
when he wins.

The O. R. & N. has let to Hale &
Smith a contract for improving the rail
road track for a distance of eight miles
westward from Viento station, which is
about thirty miles from here. The con
tract includes the taking out of curva
ture, filling in where trestles now are,
and completing a new grade, all of which
will cost $190,000. This is a continua
tion of the Ryetem of track improvement
begnn early in the year, by which the
condition of the road along the Colum
bia river is being vastly improved. Up
on the new grade new 75-pound rails
will be laid by the company,- as has been
done along the other stretches of the
line. The contract with Hale & Smith
has nothing to do with tracklaying how
ever. This firm has been at work on
the O. R. & N. contracts all the year.
Work on the new contract will begin at
once, and it is to be completed before

A man answering the description
given by Lane county authorities of
Claude Branton, wanted for murder,
has been seen at different points in
Grant county. E. L. Robbins, who ar
rived in Long Creek the other day from
Canyon City, said the supposed mur
derer was seen by different persons in
or near that city who had ample oppor
tunity to converse with him and thor
oughly scrutinize him. He said there
seemed no doubt that it was Branton.
He was driving a horse attached to a
cart and was making very tast time
when on the road away from the more
thickly settled parts. Some time after
bis departure from Canyon City, officers
started in pursuit and traced him for
twenty miles to the Allen store in Fox
valley, six miles south of Long Creek.
It was ascertained there that the fugi
tive had been seen at that place Mon
day morning. Nothing more has been
seen or heard of him since, although
the entire country, which is thickly
settled, has been scoured by searchers.

The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navi
gation Co. is having a run of bad luck
just at present, and have one of their
steamers hard and faBt on the rocks
near . the Cascades, and another stuck
on the ways just across the Morrieon
etreet bridge. Joseph Supple has just
completed a fine hull for the Dalles City
and has also made a number of improve
ments in her bouse and upper works.
He bad not intended to launch the new
craft for a few days, but when the Reg
ulator was sunk last Tuesday, leaving
the company very much in need of a
boat, be hurried the work along and bad
everything ready for the launching at
6:30 Thursday evening. All the blocks
were removed, and the steamer rested
prettily on the wave, waiting for the
men to cut the ropes which held her.
There were five of these, and the three
in the middle were cut first, leaving
those at the ends to be severed by Mr.
Supple, who stood at the -stern, and one
of his workmen, at the bow.
At the word, both axes fell, and the
steamer made a beautiful start. In
nearly all launches wnere the machinery
is in the boat, the bow gets started first,
but the heavier weight in the Btern
comes to the rescue as the craft gains
headway, and both move evenly. In
the case of the Dalles City, the bow
moved very slowly, while the stern
started off with a rush, gaining such
headway that the weight of the boat was
too much for the ways, which slewed
around to one side, dumping the stern
of the boat down near the water's edge
and leaving the bow well up on the
bank. The craft went around so easily
that but little damage was done," the
hull showing no signs of a strain, but
catching and resting too heavily on the
keel near the steam on a timber . that
was under the ways. This damage will
not amount to much, and Mr. Supple
expects to straighten her up, and have
all damages repaired and the craft in
the water soon. Oregonian.
