The Stiver BioC-kcd and Traffic Sunpeud ed itoats to go to Hungry Harbor. Visitors to the water front today were persuaded that winter had come, and from reports has come to stay. Not be canee today is the coldest we have bad since December i?3, bnt'the river presents a sight, wh'ch though causing a cessation of traffic and much annoyance to steam boat men, is beautiful: to look upon. Floating down the river are huge blocks of ice, which have completely blccked the stream at Crate's Point and on down, and along its edge the ice is an inch and a 1 a'f thick. This morning the employes at the D. P. & A. N. dock were busily engaged in breaking the ire and removing freight from the wharf boat, preparatory to tak ing that, with the Dalles City hull and the Regulator, up to Hungry Harbor, about a half mileabov9 the city, a9 great damage would result were they to re main in their present position, the ice jam being strongest at that point. Later the hull was successfully moved, and the Regulator was taken for a short distance by attaching horses to ber, and she is now waiting a little above .the foot of Washington street until the wind changes, when the ferry boat will tow her to her winter destination. The K'ickitat will also follow suit and be t erl up to await developments. Saturday about "12:30 the Inland Flyer paseed the Dalles City in the locks, the latter going on to Portland; but as the water was very low the former was c impelled to wait for four hours before getting out. Finally succeeding and passing out of the upper gate she en countered ice and remained there till 8:30, when the passengers were trans ferred to the train and brought to this city. Yesterday about 4:10 she again started up the river and - by working bravely paseed Hood River at 8 o'clock this morning, bat upon Teaching Rankin's Landing just across the river, they were compel ltd to give up the job, and there she has taken up winter quarters. We are informed that the-freight for this line will be brongbt up by train. The river gauge this morning stood at zero, aud the water being so low will no doubt cause extra difficulty, for from weather reporte. the cold Enap will con tinue. - : - Don't Say Yon Hnvcu't lieen ToW. .

For a limited time Pease & Maya are offering any ten dollar euit in their larg9 stcck of men's clothing for seven dallars and twenty-nine cents. According to the bible, there will be no marrying or giving in marriage in Heaven probably because there won't be enough men to go around.
