Quite a little concern is felt regarding
the fate of the Regulator and other craft
which are hemmed in at the foot of
Court street. Mr. Allaway informs us an
attempt win oe made to move them up
the river by cutting a channel for them

Yesterday during the fire Vic Schmidt
had a lucky escape from serious injury.
Having climbed to the roof to assist in
putting out the fire, be slipped' and fell
to the frozen ground thirty-five feet be
low. Those who saw the . fall, thought
surely he had at least broken some
bones, but were surprised to find he had
escaped with ' but a slightly sprained
wrist. In nine cases out of ten such a
fall would have resulted in a very seri
ous, if not fatal injury.
Mr. Wise is in receipt of a letter from
E. E. Mallory, who has been asked by
tte ladies of the Commercial Club of
The Dalles, to : endeavor to arrange a
bowling match with the A. F. C. ladies'
team. The latter does not state where
The Dalles ladies wish to bowl whether
on the local alleys, at home or in Port
land. Mr. Wise will see the ladies of
the club and find oat whether or not
they wish to take part in the match. It
is very likely that the challenge will be
accepted, it promises to be quite in
teresting, as The Dalles and Astoria
ladies are the crack bowlers of the state
Astorian. '
we're all in the same box not a
sweat box either, but an Oregon ice
chest. So far Meacham carries the
banner for the coldest record, with the
thermometer at 42 below. At Gervals,
in the Valley, it was 6 below ; while here,
according to official report, the lowest
thermometer was one degree below.
Portland claims that the only thermom
eters to be depended upon, give about !
ten above. Well, that may be all right,
but it sounds a little bit frosty. Perhaps
the thermometers there are not as sus
ceptible as ours, but if it isn't as cold
in Portland as it is bete, every visitor
from here who has given in a report is a
prevericator.
.Last Tuesday Mr. J. M. Huntington,
wishing to show the managers of the
Alliance Insurance Company what, brave
firemen we have and how no company
need fear that any stone will be left un
turned to stop the ravages of fire in our
city, mailed them a copy of the Chroni
cle containing an article regarding the
Columbia Hotel fire. This morning he
received the following answet : "We
are today in reaeipt of marked copy of
The Dailbs Chbonicle and have read
with interest the description of the Col
umbia Hotel fiie and its treatment by
your fire department. It certainly speaks
volumes for its efficiency when they can
arrest a fire in a structure of this char
acter with only a comparatively nominal
damage as its result.'' Signed, E. T.
Niebling, Aes't Manager.
McEwen attracted a large audience
Saturday night, and gave a very laugh
able entertainment, the cake walk
causing merriment which ' knew no
bounds. Even when under the hypnotic
influence the subjects seem to be on the
alert for newspaper . people, and when
selling pop corn on that occaesion one of
tnera attached a reporter and declared
he owed him ten cents. Dick assured
him he had not been purchasing pop
corn, but devoting his attention not to
the question oi pop com but popping
the question. At length McEwen was
compelled to appear on the scene and
by reading his mind -verify the state
ment before the fellow was satisfied.
Alter the entertainment the great
hypnotist spent a short time with bis
brother Elks, leaving on the night train
for Pendleton, where he appears tonight.
The minstrel company will leave on
the 5 -.30 train this evening for Heppner,
where great preparations are being made
to receive them. With but a verv few
exceptions the company will have the
same personnel as when the performance
was given here. In place of the solo by
Charles Clarke, we understand N. J.
Sinnott will appear in his famous "Sissy
Sideways" sketch, which attracted so
much attention at the first show given
here. The boys are to give a parade to
morrow noon, and Dalles young ladies
whose "best fellows' are among the
company have no little concern regard
ing the consequences when our boys ap
pear on parade, for they are certainly ir
resistable, and Heppner girls are said 10
be formidable rivals. Bert Phelps has
been untiring in bis efforts to make their
visit a success, while Will Crossen has
sent from lone for a number, of seats,
and will take all bis girls) if it takes a
special car to carry them.

The hydraulic force which operates
the locks at Cascades comes from high
mountain streams through pipes. In
the harry to open the locks by the
specified time these pipes were left ex
posed, and under ordinary circumstances
did as well this way as any. The cold
snap last week, however, has proven
that it is necessary to put these pipes
well under ground.
It has been suggested that steam be
substituted for the hydraulic pressure,
but it is not likely that this will be done
It is. the impression . that all that
will be necessary is to place water pipes
well under ground. The hydraulic force
is more effective and less expensive than
steam, and with proper protection the
locks need never be closed again from

Another Sanday Fire.
JESSES'. "': S
Sunday seems to be the favorite day in
The Dalles for fires. Accordingly, yes
terday about 11 :30 o'clock the clang of
the fire bell was again beard and resi
dents rushed from their homes and
the various places of worship, each one
feeling assured that it was their home
or place of business which' was on fire.
However ,only one was correct in the con
jecture, and that was Miss Schmidt who
assured the other members of the Con
gregational choir that she felt certain it
was ber home, as the chimney was burn
ing out when she left. And it proved to
be the case. '
Although there was still a little ice on
the roof.a cinder from the burning chim
ney succeeded in catching the shingles,
and a hole about three feet in diameter
was soon made by the flames. As quick
ly as possible the firemen were on the
scene, and the engine was located at the
cistern on the Catholic church corner
For about twenty minutes the water
played on the fire, and was successful in
extinguishing it.
The damage, which was mostly caused
by the water, has not as yet been fully
determined, bnt is thought to be about
$200, and is confined to two bedrooms,
one up stairs and the other just below,
while the halls were damaged slightly.
Nothing will be done toward making re
pairs until the insurance adjustors ar
rive. While the result of the fire was not
what might be termed disastrous, it
is anything but pleasant to have living
rooms soaked, with water this cold
weather.' However, Mr. Schmidt and
his family consider they had a lucky es
cape.
'. For the past week there have been two
men advertising and introducing a new
kind of soap among our citizens. - It is
known as Blue Mountain toilet soap.
The above named soap is made from the
product of a mineral soap mine located
in Eastern Oregon,' : and is without a
doubt the best five cent soap on the mar
ket. It 19 put up by the Columbia Star
Manufacturing Company of Portland..
Their Sunshine scouring soap is without
an equal for cleaning or scouring of what
ever nature, and is harmless to the skin,.
as it contains no acids. For sale by alii
up-to-date grocers. Ask your dealer for
it. - '
