W. S. Lytle, a cousin of E. E. Lytle,
who has held the position of auditor of

has resigned and his place has been

It always eeems like ' parting' with old
friends wi,en we see such old landmarks
as the poplar trees, which have for eo
many yeare surrounded the lot on the
corner of Third andLiberty streets, cut
down. No doubt it is necessary to re
move them, but it is to be regretted that
such is the case.
The Oregonian says the fare to Cloud
Cap Inn from Portland is $15. If we
mistake not, many procured tickets
last year at Portland, including the
stage trip, for $10. Are we right?

. A new 'dining-car for the O. R."& N.
will be delivered to the company in
Chicago next Monday, fully equipped
for immediate service. A crew has gone
to take charge of it, and bring it out to
the O. R. & N..lines. The new dining
car, will run between The Dalles and
Umatilla on the through trains to and
from Huntington. It is exptcted to
begin service about the 15 lb.
Some people are already beginning,
like Noah of old, to build little arks pre
paratory to the oncoming of the June
flood, claiming that it's bound to come.
Well, it may be all right to be cautious,
but let's not prepare to wade before the
water gets here. It'll be hard enough
to ford the stream when it reaches us.
Let's not go to meet it.
In a few days The Dalles will be in
full bloom. The trees are all putting
forth their buds and nearly every lot in
the city contains juEt enough fruit trees
to beautify.it with their blossoms. The
lawns also aro emerald green. Are you
sure, though, that on your lot or sur
rounding it is not something to mar -the
perfectness of the picture; something
objectionable to the view? -
The Chronicle was mistaken about
Cjke Hill neglecting his Dalles friends
and passing through the city without
stopping. He epeut yesterday in the
city, leaving today for Prineville. Al
though it has been almost fourteen
years since Coke left The Dalles, he is
as loyal as ever, and would even leave
San Francisco to return here if business
inducements were sufficient to .warrant
the change.
One of the most beautiful spots in the
city is the Academy park. It is now in
the best of trim, and kept in such
perfect order that it always looks in
viting. The grounds about the High
school building have also been terraced
and planted to grass, while Irish juniper
and a specimen of cedar trees have been
placed at intervals about the campus.
In time it will vie with the grounds ad
joining in their beauty of verdure.
Tonight is the time for the Easter sale
at the K. of P. hall. One of the at
tractive features of the program will be

all this pleasure will cost but 25 cents

Yesterday being the birthday of Mr,
Wm.- Tackman, a fe.w ! friends were
privileged to spend last evening at their
attractive home on the East Hill. 1 The
rooms, bad been decorated in potted
plants and flower;, until the guests felt
themselves in a perfect garden as they
entered the parlors. A portion of the
evening, was passed in playing whiet
and hearts, and later the tables' were
spread for one of the best lunches the
party ever Eat down to. Roses and car
nations were much in evidence as deco
rations of the festal board, which was
otherwise, laden with gooi things.
Every one present thoroughly enjoyed
the entire evening. - -
- The P.regonian has the following con
cerning F. Kinsey, a former Dalles "resi
dent who was engineer on the O..' R. &
N. boats v for man y , years : " Fran k'
Kinsey, who has been engineer - of -the
reform school at Salem for the past three
aud a half years has returned ' to his
home on the East Side and is nowa
private , citizen.," ; A . complete. - change
was made in the employes of this school
and the total number cut by five. Mr.
Kinsey while serving as engineer at
Salem, did not move his . family there,
but they lived on the East Side. He
made a good record, and retires to
private life with the satisfaction of hav
ing done his duty."
.'At the same time when "Slim" was
arrested for having obtained money
under false pretense by , selling two
different ordeis for the same county
Ecrip, it Was also said that Raymond
Chavey was implicated . in the same
kind of a deal. It will be remembered
that he was another prominent witness
in the Furrcar casa; but at the
time Slim was arrested, the Spaniard
could not be found. J. II. Jackson has
been on his trail and discovered him at
the Finlayson ranch, eighteen miles
from Antelope. He made no resistame
and last night the officers brought him
to the city and placed him in the county
jail. He appeared before Justice
Bayard this afternoon, and wave! ex
amination. His bonds were placed at
$100.
We are more than fortunate in having
such an actress as Clara Thropp spend
an evening in The Dalles. It la to be
accounted for, from the fact that the
company is passing through the city on
its way East, and, having an extra date,
will fill in by stopping over in this city.
As she will spend Monday in the city,
it has been suggested that parlors be
secured and the ladies be privileged to
hear. Miss Thropp read during the after
noon. . 'Tis not often we have an op
portunity to listen to Each a talented
actress as this and we should maze the
most ot ii. Of course every theater-goer
will hear her Monday evening. During
the rendition of "The Truant Spouse,"
the comedy which follows "A Doll's
House," she will sing Radyard Kipling's
fimona barrack song, "On the Road to
Mindalay."
MORE RAILROAD RUMOR."
PKKSOSAL MENTION.
r.et the Good Work Ho On The Dalles
Will Mot Bin Away.
Let the railroad work go on ; tho more
the merrier, and if all rumors connected
with such schemes are true we'll have a
merry time ot it. A dispatch from
Goldendale has the following, which
must be regarding the project on hatd
by the company in which Dr. Blalock is
interested. As to some leading citizens
of our city being also in the scheme we
have not been advised. What we do
know is that had Dalles people taken
kindly to some railroad projects in
tended to reach into the interior to the
south, the future of our city would have
had a brighter outlook ; but in spite of
all predictions to the contrary, The
Dalles is a lively corpse yet and will
continue to bold its own, if we mistake
not. The dispatch says :
"Railroad surveyors are locating a
line from Turn water fisheries on the
Columbia river opposite Old Celilo, to
'Columbia Gap,' and thence to Golden
dale. Hon. James Wheel house, of
Columbus, who was recently in Golden
dale, says he believes that Dr. Blalock,
of Walla Waila, is interested in the
village of surveyors' tents that adorn
the Parson's ranch on Celilo flats, and
that be believes from an acquaintance
of over twenty years that, the well
known Walla Walla . physician meant
business and that there are. identified
with bim in the project some of the
citizens of -The Dalles. From other
sources it. is reported that near the
fisheries and at the narrows is a natural
Bite for bridging the Colombia river. It
is also reported that the proposed rail
way may connect with the O. R. & N.,
and in this way Goldendale would ac
quire an all-rail connection with a trane
continental line." From all indications
it appeals the O. R. & N. Co. has shewn
an indifference to Klickitat's inadequats
transportation facilities,' nntil last Mon
day, when Mr. Campbell, of that cjm
pany, communicated ..with Merchant
Alinon Baker, of Goldendale, to ascer
tain the probable yield of wheat in the
yalley. It is the opinion of many
I Goldendale people that Engineer Ham
mond's surveys about Goldendale have
disturbed the dreams of the O. R. & N
and possibly Mr. Hammond's company
is . in eonae wav connected with the
Northern Pacific Railway company."
