Just how much Dalles people are in
terested in the D. P. & A. N. Co. and its
boats was evidenced yesterday by the
large crowd, about one hundred in num
ber, which boarded the new Regulator
at 2 :30 o'clock, for the purpose of taking
a spin down the river and determining
what she . could do after donning her
new clothes. Captain Sherman was at
the helm ready for the fray.
The breezes got wind of the trial trip
and look part in the circus, walking the
tight ropes and tumbling around the
decks until the passengers took refuge
in the cabin. Then, too, the rains de
scended and got the drop on the few

Prof. S. N. Steele, the first bass of the
A. L. P. S. male quartet, arrived on
last night's train from Albany. He is
accompanied by his father, who is on
his way to Spokane, but will lay over to
hear the quartet rehearse. Mr. Steele
is a brother to the famous artist whose
paintings received the highest award at
the World's Columbian Exposition.
Mr. Steele is a mnsician of a high stand
ard, possessing a rich baritone voice and
a very delicate ear, so' essential to quar
tet singing. He is also the funny man
of the quartet, and his humorous selec
tions never fails to bring down the house.

The Heppner Gazette says : "City
Recorder Richardson was one of the for
tunate participants in the Elks' festivi
ties at The Dalles. , The judge reports a
most enjoyable time among bis many
friends there, and feels that The Dalles
Elks are fully up to the requirements of
a good time, irregardless of expense, and
took special pains in tbe entertainment
of visitors from neighboring towns."
Being much later than was expected
in returning from the trip down the river
yesterday, the passengers began to be
aware of the fact that tbey could not
subsist on wind and were about to start
for Hungry Harbor when the lights 'of

ing goes, and tbe greateet distance be
tween them at any time was about a
length and a half. It was a pretty sight
as the passengers watched them intent-
y, eager that their own boat come out
bead. As they neared the city tbe
Dalles City began gaining, and it eeemed
o be a question which would throw
he line first ; but the good old Regu-
ator, (long may she sail), touched the
ipock first, as the shout of trinmph arose
ana tne wnisue tola ot victory.
The distance, which is nine miles, was
made in about twenty-five minutes,
which, if exactly correct, would make
nineteen miles an hour. "Then, too, an
allowance of three miles must be made
for current. j
The Dalles City, which is allowed 250
pounds of Bteam, carried from 160 to
185; while the Regulator, whose limit is
151 pounds, carried from 90 to 150. The
conditions not being as perfect as they
might have been, as the Regulator's
steam pipes are not as yet covered, and
some features in regard to conditions on
the DalleB City being taken into con
sideration, this is not considered a per
fect test, and tbe engineer is confident
that becan beat this time by five or six
minutes ; but it has certainly added to
the faith which the owners have in the
tw boat?, and tbe pride which" our
citizens feel in having two such steamers
on the river.
Two better hulls do not enter the port
of Portland than are possessed by these
boats. Of the Dalles City Capt. Short
says: "She Is the best handling boat I
have ever managed ;"and Capt.Sherman
is equally as confident of the Regulator.
It fact, eyeryone is unanimous in their
estimate of the boats owned by this
company.
