The patient at the city jail, who was
injured Friday night on the' railroad
track, is getting along much better than
was expected.
The voluntary reduction of passenger
rateB in Washington and Idaho by the
Northern Pacific railway from five cents
per mile to four cents makes the rate in
these states the same as that of oar
own state.
The East End was fairly blocked with
wheat teams today, although the mar
ket still looks discouraging. Today 50
cents is being paid ; California somewhat
lower; Chicago at a standstill, and Eng
lish easier.
Yesterday Mr. C. L. Phillips picked
up a pocketbook on the streets of our
city, which he says the owner may have
by proving property. We question,
therefore, whether the purse contains
anything worth" mentioning. However
the purse itself may be of value.
This morning Coroner Butts was
called to the Cascade Locks, a man hav
ing been run over and killed by a train
there yesterday. No particulars have as
yet been received; but it is supposed to
have been the same train from which
the man jumped yesterday and got in
jured. A number of gentlemen from this city
recently visited Goldendale, and they in
form us it is very likely that in the near
future a railroad will be built between
that plac9 and Lyle. Nothing definite
has been given out as yet as to the par
ties who are interested in the same; but
eo much is assured and that is the road
will be built.
Mr. Chas. Stubling has placed a fine
new bar in bis saloon which is reported
to be a "beauty." It is of oak, and its
beauty lies in the fact that it is so neat,
not being covered in tawdry decoration,
but of rich polished wood. Back of it is i
a lare mirror of plate glass, extending
the full length of the bar. He has also
added a patent refrigerator for draught
beer, which contains four nickle-plated
faucets.
Only a very few senators and repre
sentatives were to be seen in Salem
yesterday, the majority having either
gone Lome or to Portland to spend the
recess. A large part of the lobbying
continieat dissolved in like manner, so
that bo far as the state house was con
cerned a comparatively dead quiet pre
vailei all day, and politico and legisla
tion took a rest. This quiet was, doubt
less, c innterbalanced by a correspond
ing activity among the hotels of the
metropolis. It is reported that a caucus
will be held this evening to make a
nomination for senator.
Tonight at the Baldwin the Tennesse
Students will sing some of the finest
plantation melodies old and new
Dalles people have ever heard; Robert
and Susie Williams are the leading
artists in this line; while Irene and
Grant Stroter give a catchy pickaninny
sketch. Somehow there is something
about the singing of a company of dark
ies which pleases when others fail. They
are the only singers of plantation songs.
A meeting of the city council will be
held this evening, and the aforesaid
body would confer a great favor upon
the citizens of The Dalles if they would
begin agitating the question of putting
in arc lights before winter is upon us
and we are compelled to wander in dark
ness. It was suggested at the Wizard
Oil concert the other night that red
headed girls be placed on each street
corner as a means of lighting the city.
The entire community will be red-headed
If we are compelled to walk in dark
ness much longer. Can't something be
done to keep our citizens out of the gut
ter this winter? Temperance pledges
cannot alone avail ; the council must
have a hand in the reform.
Saturday we were informed that Tom
Purdy, who formerly was a resident of
this city, and in the employ of J. T.
Peters, passed through the city Friday
evening on his way to Pendleton, and
that when he returned Dalles girls could
sit at the depot and see him go by, as
Mrs. Purdy would accompany him.
Loath to believe it, we made no mention
of the report ; but the Pendleton Tribune
confirms our suspicions by publishing
the fact that a marriage license was
granted to Thomas A. Purdy and Agnes
Lillian McNorris. No heartier congrat
ulations will be received by Mr. Purdy
than those extended by his friends in
The Dalles, whose wishes for their
future happiness and success are profuse
and sincere.

HIS FOOT BADLY CRUSHED.
In Attempting; to Display His Agility in
Jaraploeon tne Train Be Ge-s
the Worst of It.
Yesterday just after noon in front of
the Columbia Hotel some harvest hands,
who were about to return to their homes
in the valley, were discussing agility in
boarding a moving train, when one of
them, a man named Parker, determined
to give a representation of his particular
talent in that line. As a freight train
was just then passing he struck an
attitude and mounted the ladder, only
to be repulsed by the brakeman. Not
to be thwarted in his exhibition he again
boarded the train, but in attempting to
strike ground again his left foot fell on
the track and three small toes were so
badly mashed that they had to be am
putated, which will perhaps lame him
for life.
To those who have occasion to be at
the train as they come and go the won
der is that more accidents do not hap
pen, for it is a common thing to see not
only email boys, but men, jump on when
the train has started, and sometimes
going fast. Many lessons have been
taught by the fate of others; but some
are not willing to accept instructions ex
cept from a private tutor; and they will
have sufficient tutorage sooner or later.

Mrs. Walter Reed, the well-known
vocal teacher of Portland, has been en
gaged to sing at the opera house for the
District Fair in this city, the evenings
of October 20 and 21. This will necessi
tate a visit of two or three days in this
city, and the many eingers of The Dalles
will be glad to hear that Mrs. Reed in
tends giving vocal lessons while here.
Mrs. Reed is gifted with a beautiful
voice, and through her earnest efforts it
is most thoroughly trained, as she has
enjoyed studying under some of the
most famous teachers. Among her
teachers have been Monsieur Trabadelo,
of Paris ; Madame Emma Eames, teacher
for the past two or three years; Signor
Belan, of New York ; Francis Stewart,
the well-known teacher of San Fran
cisco; Mr. Victor Harris, the composer,
etc. jjirs. iteea nas nan many years
experience in teaching hundreds of
voices, and vocal students will find her
advice valuable and her criticisms abso
lutely frank, especially thoBe who are in
doubt as to their abilities, or possi
Dimies, or those who have faults and
are in doubt as to how to go to work and
correct them. Vocal students in other
cities where Mrs. Reed has visited have
profited much by taking a few lessons
from her, many pupils taking two les
sons a day, one in the morning and one
in the. afternoon. Mrs. Reed will teach
in The Dalles October 20 and 21, (terms
$2.50, same rates as in Portland) and all
students desiring lessons may write to
her at 394 Yamhill Street, and she will
arrange a limited number of lessons.
No hours will be saved for thoEe who do
net correspond.
The attendance at the convention of
Christian Endeavorers, which has been
held in this city the past two days, was
somewhat of a disappointment to those
most deeply interested, only about six
teen delegates from abroad being present.
However, some very profitable meetings
were held, one of the most interesting
being the rally of Junior Endeavors at
the Congregational church yesterday
afternoon. Their superintendent, Mrs.
Hershner, of Hood River, being unable
to attend, the meeting was led by a
member from each of the Junior societies
of our city. During the session a recita
tion was given by Helen Stevens, of
Hood River, and at the close of the after
noon's program Mrs. Boltz read a very
well-written paper on "The History of
the Junior Work."
At 6:30 in the evening the convention
joined with the Epworth League in a
meeting at the Methodist church, and at
:30 a union service was held in the au
ditorium of the same church. A large
number was present, and it was a fitting
climax to their fifth annual convention.
The Congregational choir furnished
music for the occasion, and the meeting
opened with the hymn "When I Survey
the Wondrous Cross," followed by
prayer by Rev. Wood. The anthem,
"Praise the Lord," by the choir was
beautiful, containing a soprano obligato,
sung by Mrs. Huntington, which is suf
ficient proof of its excellence. After a
sciipture lesson the congregation joined
in Binging the hymn "Jn The Cross of
Christ I Glory."
In introducing Rev. Poling, who de
livered the sermon of the evening, Rev.
Wood's remarks were well chosen, and
seemed to create a feeling of unity in the
congregation during the entire service.
He first spoke of the satisfaction it gave
him to know 'that the churches of the
city were so united in their work, and of
the pleasant fellowship which had exist
ed between the former pastor of the Con
gregational church, W. C. Curtis, and
himself. He then said that it afforded
him great pleasure to introduce the new
pastor of that church and that he hoped
the Christian feliowshiD would be
strengthened as the work of the year
progressed.
Mr. Poling, as an introduction to his
remarks, said that he did not intend to
preach a eermon, but merely give a few
suggestions which he hoped would be of
benefit to the workers ot the Christian
Endeavor, choosing as a topic "Conse
cration," and as a basis for his remarks
the words of Christ, "Father, for Their
Sakes I Consecrate Myself," and urging
npon his hearers the necessity of conse
cration, not from a selfish motive, but
for the sake of others. The speaker won
his congregation upon this, his first ap
pearance before a union meeting in our
city, and if future impressions are as
productive of good as those first made,
he will be a power in the community.
At the close ofjthe sermon, resolutions
thanking the people of The Dalles for
their efforts in behalf of delegates, and
the D. P. & A. N. Co. for reduction in
rates from Hood River, were introduced.
The officers for the coming year are as
follows: President, H. C. Bateham,
Hood River; first vice, O. B. Hartley,
Hood River; second vice, Jos. O'Brien,
Dufur; secretary, Edward Davenport,
The Dalles; treasurer, Maie Cushing,
The Dalles ; Supt. Junior Endeavor, Mrs.
Armor, Hood River.
The' convention closed with a conse
cration meeting led by Jas. Powell, of
Dufur.
