Upon returning they found the coats gone, and started out to in vestigate the matter. At one of-the second-hand stores they wore told that two men had been there" attempting to sell some coats. The marshal was then found.and together with the store keeper went up to "tramp's camp" above the city, where two men were found whom the latter identified . as the men who called at his 'store. The mackintosh was finally given up, but not the over coat. .They were arrested, and now occupy the city jail awaiting a trial. A large number of friends attended the funeral of Roderick . McNeil, which was held at the Catholic church this morning at 9 o'clock, and regret was ex pressed by alias they contemplated the suddenness of the call which had come to one who was in tbebest health, and who it seems was so sadly needed by the lArge family of children who sur vive him. Father Brongeest spoke of his life in a. manner which told to the anaience wnat an nonest, upright man the 'deceased bad always )jroven him self and of the kindness of his heart for all. '. The' office and work-shop, of Mr, Glenn were closed daring tta services, ana among the sorrowing mends were found -many of his fellow workmen, who appreciated his worth. He was buried by the side of his wife, who died about eighteen months ago, and whose body was laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery. Yesterday afternooa the case of the comantment.ot the three Wand -children to the Boys' and Girls Aid Society-came up before Judge Mays. The comulaint had been that the. fa-Oher was not a 'fit persea to have the care of the children and that he was unkind to then. It however, appears that the father and mother of Mr. Waad have been aring for the little ones, and being very much snow-capped peaks and who would go j attached to them are willing to see that into ecstacies over the Klickitat hills covered in snow. Now , if this eefaeme is only a success, as we hope it be, it will be a great- feature on the pro gram prepared far our visitors. .

Schmidt for Clvrfc and J. G. ' ley Omr Mew IMrector. Far- Where' were all the voters in the district yesterday Did they imagine it was collection day and take to the woods? Oat of 540 voters, only 85 were in the city, for surely bad they been here they' would have taken enough interest to vote for a clerk and director for our school district. But then eighty- five weie enough to elect them, and we have a new director in the person of O. J. Ferlny, and C. L. Schmidt, who so successfully filled the unexpired term of G. P. Morgan, deceaeed, was re-elected clerk, Mr, Schmidt had no rival candidate for the office, but had there been a number he would no. doubt have re ceived the majority of voteB, being just the man for the place, and one who will keep a- thorough and complete account of the school records of the district. All are satisfied with the choice. For director there were two candi dates, G. J. Farley and J. T. Peters, the latter being placed in the field at a very late hour. Mr. Farley came out ahead, with four votes more than his opponent. The new director has always been interested in everything pertaining to the welfare of the city, and as the schools are a large part of that intereet, be will undoubtedly fit well in place so well filled by his predecessor. '-The school district can boast .of three competent directors Dr. Doane, Judge "Liebe and G. J. Farley, in whose hands she ehould fare well. drunk act," as it might be called, wa especially good.

Dalles people were never known to be taken with a play of that description, preferring rather one of the quieter kind, such as the one to be given tonight, "The Gold King." It appears,, however, that our tastes differ from thoBe of audiences in other places tbey have visited, where they have always opened with "The Strategists". Perhaps we have too much strategy the year around in our ownmidst. As to the company.
