A more orderly town than The Dalles
would be hard to find, as is demonstrat
ed by the fact that during the present
month not a single arrest has bean made
for drunkenness or disorderly conduct.
This is certainly a good record.
Notice for publication has been handed
to us tor two small tracts of land near
Seuferts, on the l'ne of the ship railway.
For some reason the tracts are restored
to the public domain and are subject to
disposal the same as other public lands.
Work on the D. P. & A. X. dock was
begun this morning. On account of the
high water, the planks had to be re
moved, but now as the water has gone
down the platform will be replaced,
which will give more dock room and
make it more convenient for loading and
unloading freight.
City Marshal Chil
is in a predicament.
er, of La Graade,
People let their
cows loose at night,
Ind much damage
is done to fine vine
nd shrubery. The
marshal has impounded the animals eo
often that the cows look upon the pound
as their home, and! flock there to be
milked. The marshal announces that
he will now prosecute the owners of the
cows. We suggest ihat he starts a milk
ranch.
One of the finest bands of mutton
sheep that has passed through the city
this summer was delivered at the stock
yards " this morning. They were in
splendid condition of equal size and as
healthy a lot of eheep as we have ever
eeen. The sheep were raised by Mr. A.
Roberts and are en route to the Union
Meat Co. in Portland. The band con
sists of 1420 head and at the rate of $3
will net Mr. Roberts a neat Bum.
A visit to our land office today reveals
the fact that the entire force are unusu
ally busy, though not from rush of pres
ent business. In the early part of the
year much business collected, owing to
lack of help, and now that there is a lull
an effort is being made to clear up de
layed contests and other business of
that nature before the fall rush. This
being the last year in which the for-
r tn sta.v at linmfl, fair a a Inolr
PEASE
feited N. P. R, R. lands can be acquired
by purchase, this fall and winter
promisee to be a lively one with Uncle
Sam's servants at the land office.
Mrs. Lydia Patterson died at her
home in La Grande Sunday night about
11 o'clock at the advanced age of 85.
Mrs. Patterson's powers had beon fail
ing for some time and her death is at
tributed to old age. She was a pioneer
resident of La Grande and was the
mother of Mrs. Hilts and Mr. Cal
Knapp. The funeral will take place
today at 2 o'clock in La Grande, and the
interment will be at the Odd Fellows'
cemetery, where her husband is buried.
Mr. and Mrs. I. P. Joles and daughter,
Pearl, were among the returning camp
ers last night. They have been in
camp near Mofiet for the past month
and have enjoyed life while many of ns
poor unfortunates were sweltering with
the heat in this city. The heavy rains
of the last few days caused them to
break camp earlier in the eeason than
they expected, but if the weather turns
warm again, they intend returning and
staying until the cool weather comes to
stay.
The third shipment ot horses for the
Linnton cannery passed through from
Huntington Sunday night. There were
in all 300 packed in 10 cars. On the way
down five died, and three were in such
bad condition that Humane Officer Cas
well shot them. The cars were not
overcrowded, or even crowded, and the
death of the five is attributed by the
stockyard employes to overheating, re
sulting from rearing and plunging. The
horses were mostly yearlings and 2-year-olds,
and were fresh from the ranges. j
Mr. Gifford, the well-known photo
grapher, arrived home last evening from
camp at Cascades, Wash. While down
the river he eecnred a number of beau
ful views of various scenes along the Co
lumbia, which he will soon offer for sale.
We understand that he was not alone in
photography at hiB Skamania county
home, but there were others in the pro
fession Kodak fiends who at present
have a number of negatives of ecenes at
the camps, which would command a
high price if offered for sale to some of
the campers.
We are informed by Prof. J. M. Ryan
that he contemplates giving a mneical
recital at the Vogt in the near future
probably about September 15tb. He
will have the assistance of the mnsical
talent of the city, and one of the most
pleasing features will be the music by
the Alpha Mandolin and Guitar Club.
The club is mading wonderful progress
and their numbers alone will furnish a
rare musical ireac xne ualles appre
ciates the work of its local talent, and
we are safe in saying the entertainment
will be a success in every regard.
Our firemen are badly in need of a
new hook and ladder wagon, and a num
ber of suggestions have been made as to
a means of raising money to Becure the
same. One of the best suggestions is to
give an entertainment or ball in the near
future for the benefit of the department
and thus raise a sufficient amonnt to

purchase a first class wagon. Many of
our young people who usually take part
in such performances are willing to do
their best and we have no doubt that a
performance given for this purpose
would be patronized by every property
owner in the city. The idea is a splendid
one and we hope that it will be carried
out successfully.
A party who went up to The Dalles
and crossed over to the Klickitat valley
a few days Eince hunting for prairie
chickens did not find any and came
home disappointed, says the Oregonian.
Prairie chickens are very scarce all over
Eastern Oregon. Some say they have
been killed off by the poison pfit out for
squirrels. Others say that they have
been killed by flying against the wire
fences, and others say that so much
more ground is in cultivation than there
used to be that the birds' nests are de
stroyed by the plow. Probably all these
things have. had a tendency to lessen
the number of prairie chickens, and
persistent hunting has also had some
thing to do with it.
The tenth annual meeting of the
Eastern Oregon Agricultural Society
will open in this city on October 18th.
Persons who desire to put stock, pro
duce or articles of any kind on exhibit
should not wait too long before making
ready, as it is not well in such cases to
let every thing go until the laEt moment.
It is the intention of everyone concerned
to make the coming meeting one of the
most successful in the history of Thel
Dalles, and the success of the meeting
depends much on the interest taken by
the people throughout the state. The
best race horses in the West will com
pete for purses and there will also be
numerous local horses take part in sad
dle horse and pony races. Work on the
track will begin in the near future and
everything will be done to make the
meeting a flattering success.
Joe Forrest, living at Thorn Hollow,
near Pendleton, had an accident Satur
day that will make him timid about
working in wells in the future. He was
having a well dug on his place, his boys
doing the work. Thinking he could
make faster progress, he went himself
into the well and plied the pick and
shovel until time to come up, when he
fastened the shovel to the rope and
called out for hia son to hoist away. The
latter hauled up the shovel to the top of
the well, when the implement fell,
striking Mr. Forrest on the face. His
nose was cut nearly off, and he was
knocked into a state of insensibility. It
was neceBBary to go over to a combine
harvester outfit that was working near
by, procure a rope and have help come
to take Mr. Forrest from the well. He
lay on the bottom, fifteen feet below
the surface, and the task of hauling him
np waa by no means an easy one.

About one month ago my child, which
is fifteen months old, had an attack of
diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. 1
gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases, but as nothing gave
relief, we Bent for a physician and it was
under his care for a week. At this time
the child had been Bick for about ten
days and was having about twenty-five
operations of the bowels every twelve
hours, and we were convinced that un
less it soon obtained relief it would not
live. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended,
and I decided to try it. I soon noticed a
change for the better; by its continued
use a complete cure was brought about
and it is now perfectly healthy. C. L.
