The examination of Curley Keith, ac

- on the Dalles City, was to have been
held on Tuesday evening, but, on mo
tion of W. H. Wilon, his attorney, the
hearing was continued. The prelimi
nary hearing will be held at 7 :30 this

A dispatch which we notice in a late
- - San Francisco Examiner, is to the effect
that tbe man Reid, who was shot and
killed by Soapy Smith, at Skaguay, left
a will in which he bequeathed to the
Presbyterian mission of that place $10,
000. LeBlie Butler, of The Dalles, who
now resides there, was mentioned as
executor.
Eleven applicants for teachers' certifi
cates were at work on their much
dreaded task at Superintendent Gilbert's
office yesterday. This must be a most
inviting occupation on such a warm .day
as yesterday. Indeed one who has pa

ing, certainly has one of the requisites of
a successful teacher,

Sunday, August 14ih, will undoubted
ly be the banner day of the season for
Bonneville excursionists. There will be
several new features in the entertain
ment on that date. Round trip fare
from The Dalles only 50 cents.
A epecial dispatch from Vancouver
says that when the steamer Farallon
left Skaguay Thursday night the town
was threatened with Ore. Fifteen or
twenty houses were in flames, and there
was little hope of saving the city. A
later dispatch says a woman and child
perished.
Dr. J. Sutherland left the city last
evening for Spokane, where he expects
to remain and practice medicine. The
doctor's health is much improved, but,
seeling that his chances for permanent
fnl will Hereafter make that a spec-
lty.
We who are vainly longing for a cool
retreat in "any old place" where we may
escape this interminable heat, can
scarcely believe that at the eeaside our
friends are compelled to wear winter
under-clothing and beside don their
overcoats in order to be comfortable.
And etill such is the case. Mr. Brooks
informs us that the thermometer yester
day stood at 103, and although in many
places in the city it mar have been
higher, we usually rely on him for a
correct report. At Umatilla it was re
ported to be 113, so we're not so bad off
as we might be, which is at least en
couraging. Yesterday afternc
a the attention of
several passers-by
s attracted to two
Klootchmen whoj
were standing on
Washington etree
near Second, en-
gaged in a discussion, which from the
gestures of the combatants anil tbe state
of the weather,
uld not have been
anything but he
ed. In the hand of
one of tbe maide
a of the forest was an
ax, which she
ielded in an exciting
manner, leading
a stray reporter, who
had an ax to-gri
d, to believe that there
was an item i
the air. But " 'twere
after making several

The temperature throughout the Pa-
louse country during the past three days
has been very high, thermometer read
ings in Colfax being : Sunday, 97
Monday, 100; Tuesday, 98. Reports
from the northern and eastern portions
of the county are that late spring grain
will be : considerably damaged. A great
deal of wheat to the east of Colfax baa
been damaged by rust. . Grain fields in
the west and south are - nndamaged,
nearly all the grain being fully devel
oped, and fully 50 per cent already head
ed and stacked. Joseph Canutt, from
Penawawa, reported that for four hours
Monday the thermometer registered 115
degrees in the shade at Snake river
points. ' '

of Mrs. T. S. Lang- to .meet Madame
Smith, who was here in the interest of
the Oregon Official Roster, of which she
is publisher. The principal object of
her visit was to obtain the names of tbe
fifty-seven volunteers and recruits from
this cify, for each of whom one of the
rosters is to be held until their return,
these being presented as a souvenir from
the citizens of Oregon. In the event of
any of our boys not returning, the eou
venir will be given to some member of
their immediate families. A number of
the rosters have been left with the corps
in this city, and can be-obtained from
any officer thereof, the price being fifty
cents. -
A great many complaints have been
made of late concerning a band of Uma
tilla Indians who have camped near
Castle Rock, on the O. R. & N. road.
They claim that as they pass, the In
dian boys, with the instinct peculiar to
their race, make a practice of using their
trains for targets, and every day level
their bows and endeavor to ehoot ar
rows through the windows. Several
times their aim has been so good that
occupants of the cars have narrowly es
caped being struck, and a number of
windows have been broken. Complaint
has been made to headquarters, and no
doubt the small "Lob" will have to seek
other prey.
Edward Martin, of Pendleton, has
purchased 6000 head of sheep from
Grant county' owners, and has gone
home to hire a crowd of herders and
camp-tenders to move the drove to the
railroad. Mr. Martin distributed about
$15,000 among the Grant county sheep
men. William Baker, of Umatilla coun
ty, a stock-buyer, is in Long Creek. Mr.
Baker says that he will buy sheep and
cattle in this county, if he can get them.
In Northern Grant county, in the Long
Creek and Fox valleys, it is reported
that stockmen are either not very de
sirous of selling or the supply is ex
hausted. Charles Williams, who as
sisted Ed Martin in securing a large
drove of sheep, says that stock of all
kinds is plentiful in the southern por
tion of the countv. "
The fifth annual Spokane Frnit Fair
will open Tuesday, Oct. 4th, and close
Saturday, Oct. 15th. The public-spirit
ed citizens of Spokane have contributed
and guaranteed nearly $15,000 to insure
the financial success of the undertaking.
This year's fruit fair will be on a larger
and grander scale than any of its pred
ecessors, and the musical and other
attractions will be an agreeable surprise
to all who attend. From an attraction
standpoint the leading feature of this
year's fair will no doubt be the moving
pictures, on a mammoth scale, of all the
latest war scenes by sea and land. Many
of the famous battle scenes at tbe Phil
ippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico will be
reproduced with thrilling effect at each
evening performance of the fair. The
various transportation companies cen
tering in Spokane have put into effect a
2-cent pei mile passenger rate effective
at all times throughout the fair.

A TRIP TO MT. HOOD.
Miss Eatherlne Locke Describes the
Ascent of Ht. Hood la a Article
In the Cosmopolitan.
Tbe Cosmopolitan for August is a
number Which has especial interest for
Pacific coast people, and particularly foi
Oregonians, from the fact that it con
tains a well-written article from the pen
of Miss .Catherine Locke regarding a
trip to the summit of Mt. Hood the
pride of Oregon. The people of this
coast are justly proud of its scenery,
and consider that it has few rivals as to
grandeur. Indeed, such is the testi
mony of many disinterested travelers.
Ex-Gov. Moody, when riding some
years ago along the route of the Denver
& Rio Grande railroad overheard a con
versation which, he says, filled him with
pride and a satisfaction that he had the
honor of living "where rolls tbe Ore
gon." Two gentlemen, on? undoubted
ly a tourist , by "profession," were dis
cussing the grandeur of various famous
places they had visited, when he of
"touristic" proclivities -remarked : "I,
have traveled all over the world, have
been in every place where is any noted
Ecenery, and to me the grandest I have
yet . beheld is along the Columbia in
Oregon" the accent on tbe final syl
laDle. This to us seems overdrawn, and
no doubt such is the case; but, never
theless, it is not without a shadow of
fact. "
. Miss Locke, who wrote the article for
the Cosmopolitan, is a Bister of Dr.
Locke, formerly pastor of Taylor street
church in Portland, and was one of Dr.
Locke's party who ascended the moun
tain in July of last year. Her descrip
tions are vivid and give a faithful por
trayal of every incident in connection
with the trip, and is calculated to awak
en an interest in western resorts which
only an article published in such a pop
ular magazine could do.
The writer chanced to be at Cloud
Cap Inn when Dr. Locke's party arrived,
and was one of a number from The
Dalles who watched with amusement
the preparation for ascent, and the
transformation which took place as
faces were well smeared with charcoal to
prevent their being seriously burned.
Then, with field glasses in hand, we
watched them ascend of the snow-covered
mountain, until they were as a speck on
tbe summit of an immense field of snow.
So natural are the illustrations in the
magazine that features of the different
members of the party are distinguish
able ; even the Dr. can ' be discerned by
his clerical coat, which he insisted on
wearing, in spite of protests from the
gnide, who declared a climbing-costume
and a clerical coat : had nothing in
common.
Many from the East have visited the
Inn and returned with the proud boaBt
that they ' had reached the summit of
the mountain indeed among this party
were two gentlemen from Chicago and
it is a fact that every year brings many
more tourists than did the previous one
intent on viewing the wonderful scenery
of the "wild and woolly West."
Look Out.
