WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.
Yesterday afternoon's pasEenger train
arrived at 1 :15 this afternoon. Today's
will probably reach here about 9 o'clock
tonight.
The river is creeping up, having risen
until it was 14 5 feet above low water at
noon. This morning from 8 o'clock until
noon it rose one foot.
The "Klickitat", which came up to
this city Tuesday loaded with wood,
started down the river this afternoon
for its run between Stevenson and the
Locks.
Miss Pearl Dean left last night for
Wasco and other places in the interior,
taking with her a stock of millinery
goods from the parlors of Campbell &
Wilson. -
This morning while working about
bis -mill, a" piece of scantling fell on
Hans Hatei'd right fvit, ppraintpg it
Something New.
severely, and necessitating his using
crutches for a few days at least.
W. F. Johnson returned from the
Snake river country Saturday, having
secured a better position with the Wasco
Warehouse Company at The Dalles.
He will move bis family to that place as
soon as be can. Wasco Newr.
On Saturday evening, April 22od,
there will be a glove contest of twenty
rounds, for a decision, at the Baldwin
opera bouse. Tbe participants will be
Ed Ross, of Los Angeles, and V. S.
Houghton, of Portland. General ad
mission 50 cents ; reserved seats 75.
Sergeant John McNeil, who. has been
stationed with the regulars at Fort Robi-
son, Neb., since bis visit to this city dur
ing the winter, has obtained an honora
ble discharge and arrived in The Dalles
on the noon train. Being tbe eldest of
the family John considered it his duty
upon the death . of his father to be
with tbe familv at home, and therefore
asked for a discharge, which waseranted.
Today being Arbor day throughout
tbe. state, appropriate exercises were !
held this afternoon in the different 1
rooms of the public schools. A sufficient
number of trees having already been
planted In the various grounds, it was
unnecessary to observe tbe day in
tbe manner prescribed. However, the
children were taught the lessons for
which the day was set apart.
A more delightful day than we have
enjoyed today could not be Imagined. It
was simply perfect. Tbe recent rain
storms bave much to do with tbe balmi
ness of the atmosphere. Tbe rainfall
which was .33 of an inch was mostly
confined to the Colombia river valley
and did not reach more than eight miles
into the interior, except a slight sprinkle
at Moro. It, however, extended into the
the Klickitat valley on the Washington
aide. . '
Yesterday Mrs. B. S. Huntington re
ceived a telegram from her brother, Nor
man Wileon, informing berof the death
of his wife, Leona Wilson, at their home
in Phoen;x, Arizona, at 11 o'clock
Wednesday. No particulars were given,
other than that she passed away un
expectedly. They were married about
two years ago in Phoenix, and were
happily situated there. His numerous
friends here will deeply regret the great
sorrow which has come to Mr. Wilson
just when life eeemed the brightest.
At a meeting of the teachers of our
public schools last evening it was de
cided to attend the educational meeting
in Hood River tomorrow, going down
by boat in the morning. Hood- River
people bave arranged to banquet them
at the hotel at noon, and the meeting
will convene at 10 o'clock, closing in
time to reach the boat. A number of
friends will accompany them.' The
people of that little town bave also been
noted for tbeir intereet in educational
matters and the cordiality with- which
they receive its exponents..
Though the weather is as changeable
as the styles, tourist travePon the river
has already begun, and yesterday a
large number of visitors from different
parts of the eastern states came up on
the - Regulator as far as the Cascades.
In making the trip so early in the
seasou much' of the disappointment
which is caused bv a smoky atmosphere
obstructing the view is avoided. From
all indications tourists on the Columbia
this year will be as numerous as it is
said salmon will be in the river. .Let
them both ' make their appearance
"numerous." We'll welcome them both.
If the teachers make the trip 'tis only
fitting they should find the river full
of schools of salmon. .
Truman Butler received a letter from
bis .father this morning, which was
written on the 5lh day of this month,
saying that he would leave Skagway tor
the Atlin country the following -day.
Mrs. Butler will join him in Jnne. A
letter was also received from Henry
Michell, informing his brothers that he
and Mrs.- Michell would leave on the
4 h for Atlin, going over White Pass to
the summit by train. The lakes, he
says, are all frozen solid and will prob
ably not break up for four or six wetks.
The railroad will -be through to Lake
Bennett In about two months. The
coldest it was in' Ekagway during the
winter was five degrees below. They
are more than pleaeed with Alaska.
The search for the bodies of H. D.
McGuire and A. W. Reed continues, but
apparently in vain. E. F. Waleh, who
is in the land office at Rosehurg, says
that every effort is being made that is
possible to recover the bodies. A -reward
of $100 has been offered for the
Jxdy of A. W. Reed by bis brother, but
it did-not apparently increase tbe size
of the searching party, which has been
a large one from the first. It is -the
opinion that the bodies will be very
bard to find.' The North Umpqua is as
clear as crystal, but the water is almoBt
too cold for diving. If the bodies have
not been carried below where the south
fork of tbe river empties, there is yet
hope of finding them. The south fork
comes from a mining section, and is
very muddy.- If the bodies reach tbe
muddy water they may never be found.
It is the general opiuion, however, that
they have not gone thai far down the
stream.
Tbe Dalles is to. lose one of its beBt
physicians, Dr. Hollister having decided
to move to Portland about tbe first of
June. The doctor will be greatly missed,
especially by the needy, whom be is
ever ready to give assistance,, regardless
of the fact that there is often no re
muneration for the services rendered.
The Condon Globe has tbe following
concerning Dr. Hudson, who is to take
the doctor's office here: "Dr. J. H
Hudson returned Saturday from Port
land and Tbe Dalles, where he spent
laet week on a business trip. His many
friends here will be somewhat surprised
to learn that he has formed a partner
ship with Dr. Hollister at The Dalles
and will move to that city and take

regret to lose Dr. Hudson from Condon
we wish him abundant success in his
new field.,
Mr. W. C. Kelman, the at say er for
the -Mayflower Mining Co., came into
The Dalles this morning, called to Port
land on business for bis company. Mr,
Kelman is the man who was chiefly
instrumental in getting - Jacobsen and
Bartholouie across the bill from Mitchell
to Prineville when they were in a place
where horses had to be discarded for
man. Mr. K. admits tbat tbe induce
nienta held out by Marx & Jorgeeon's
representative were paramount inUhe
deal, but just tbe same the May-
flower Mining Co., of Portland, of which
W. P. Keady is president, deserve credit
for help in tbe time of need, which was
extended to our fellow townsman,
Jacobsen. The Mayflower people bave
a smelter on tne Ochoco which is turn
ing ten tons of $50 are. into one ton of
$500 matter, and can afford to ship the
same to the refineries, with a big profit
margin. In tbe persons of Keady & Co.
Crook county has a progressive com
pany, who will bring their property to
the front, and no doubt tb Maj flower
will prove to be one of the leading pro
ducing mines of Central Oregon. -
'WHEN SHE WONT SHE WON'T.
Mrs. Cowan's Case Ism Parallel One Willi
That of Many Other Women.
Mrs. Cowan, of Warm Springs, is
causing any amount of sensation in
Portland, because she seems to be about
to prove the assertion that when "she
won't Bhe won't and that's tl.e end ou'i,"
and her friends here are inclined to hope
she will leave not a doubt in the minds
of those who are watching her case with
interest that Adam Hill made no mistake
when be penned that old saying.
While no one delights in seeing a
citizen of the state defy the law, at
torneys in this city are persuaded that
no law can require Mrs. Cowan to sign
her name to a deed transferring her
right in the property to the Bank of
California. That at least the $5000 left
her by ber lather and which she ex
pended on .the property is her'e, and
that she can claim it in defiance of all
claims to the contrary. The question ip,
had they th right toell her property
for the debt.-
Is seems that while Mrs. Cowan has
since ber arrest been Btaying with ber
daughter, Mrs. Eva Meikel, the counsel
for the plaintiff now demands that she
be confined in the county jtil. United
States Marshal- Houeer, however, re
fuses to accede to this demand, as be
claims to have discretion to detain Mrs.
Cowan so long as be can produce her
when wanted by the United States
court. The bank's attorneys, it is said.
will institute proceedings against the
marshal to compel him to remove the
defendant to a safer place of custody
thap the borne of her daughter, on tbe
n,ast bide. Counsel's motive tor pur
suing this course is to force Mrs. Cowan
to obey tbe decree of the coui t, which
she persistently refuses to do.
From all that ber friends in this city
know of Mrs. Cowan they do not deem
it necessary for .the officers to place her
in confinement. She is not a woman who
would be a coward, but simply desires
her rights.
It is too often the case nowadays that
women thoughtlessly, or through the
persuasion of others, sign away the only
home they have or ever expect to have,
and in old age are left to wander from
pillar to post homeless. It is not to be
wondered that any woman when view-
ins the matter- in the right light, will
refnse so to do if there is any honor
able means of avoidicg it. While
unlike "Nora" of the "Doll's House,"
they may have weightier arguments
than that "It is a strange law which
would compel a woman to give up tbe
only home she had," yet every citizen in
the state will certainly ommend Mrs.
Cowan in contesting the matter as long
as there is tbe slightest vistage of hopr.

Another road is fighting for right of
way to Goldendale. A dispatch from'
that place says :
"The Columbia Railway and Naviga
tion Company ha9 filed a suit in the
superior court to condemn 200 feet" right
f way across state lands near Rockland.
Tbe complaint alleges that the desired
right of way is across tbe parcel of land
between ordinary high-water mark and
low-water mark in the Columbia river
in front of lots 1, 2 and 3, in section 17,
township 2 north, range 13 east of Wil
lamette meridian. The land to be ap
propriated is about " 13 acres. Some
years ago the Columbia Railway & Nav
igation Company laid the track' on
three miles of road that extended west
from Columbus landing, opposite Biggs
station. " The present - proceeding in
courtis believed to be a resumption of
tbe work that was suspended during the
depression. The original plans of the
company were to afford open river
transportation by . way of Tbe Dalles
portage, which is to be constructed.
When The Dalles rapids are overcome,
navigation will be open to tide water j
from Lewiston and Asotin on the Upper
Snake,. Captain J. S. Cochrane, who!
was recently in Goldendale on a tour of
Inspection, is said to 'be interested in
tbe proceedings. It is reported that a
number of important condemnation pro
ceedings will be begun soon by the com
pany."
