Mrs. Hollister expected to ac company him to Portland today, but on account of a bad cold will remain here a few days longer. We regret very mnch losing the doctor and bis wife as resi dents in our city. The announcement in the Oregonian nf the death of Chancellor Thoburn at at Portland, Tuesday evening, was a shock not only to bis friends here, but to those who heard him speak on the subject of "Missions and Education," upon bis visit to this city a few months since. He was one of those powerful men whom the church nor the slate can afford to lose. Highly educated, and possessing a love for his work, which cannot fail to be productive of good, bis death -is deeply deplored by all who realize bis worth. Sliding mountain, just below Cascades, as a good many know, has for years been literally sliding towards the Columbia, It moved on an average of four feet a year, and the roadbed was continually pushed out of place. With a view to stopping the glacial action of this mighty mountain, several O. R. & N. officials last summer scaled the peak. Back of it they found a couple of lakes with no outlet. The waters from these lakes undoubtedly seeped through the earth which probably rested on slanting slate rock, and in this manner propelled the earth downward. The lakes were im mediately drained, since which time the mountain has not budged an inch. Much conjecture was caused in Hood River, .in regard to the body found in the river opposite Davidson's saw mill yesterday ; but the coroner's jury decided it to be the body ol Restoff, a German who was drowned in John Day river about three weeks ago. He was 5 feet 7 Inches in height, light com plexioned, and . weighed 150 pounds; wore blue overalls, and blue flannel shirt; had a leather cuff on the left wrist; also wore heavy gaiters. The front teeth were large and very - promi nent, and one tooth had been knocked out on the left lower jaw. A purse was found in his pocket containing two 50 cent pieces, but no papers which would identify him could be found. The body waa buried in the K. of P. cemetery at Hood River. Yesterday cards were received in this city announcing the marriage of Omar Sylvester and Mrs. Carrie Li De Vaney, of Springfield, III., at Salem, Monday, May 8tb. Mr. Sylvester is a brother of Wo, Sylvester, and lived in The. Dalles for many years. He is now a member of the (J. S. engineer corps stationed at Fort Morrowstone, Wash. It is something unusual for a church society to be enabled to invite their frit nds to enjoy an evening with them, without requesting that the usual of fering be forthcoming. However, the Congregational ladies made, an excep tion to the rule last evening.' " Finding themselves entirely out of debt, they de cided to furnish an evening of pleasure, unalloyed by the money qneetion (which to some, no matter how small, spoils the enjoyment). Accordingly, a large num ber were invited to be present at a social given at the home of Mrs. ' B. S. Hunt ington last night. Of course the parlors were well filled and a splendid program given, with a pleasing variation of ice cream and cake. Games were played, and altogether it was a very successful affair. Superintendent Gavin Beaten. The people of The Dalles, who have seen the public schools of our city advance so signally under the professor ship and eu peri n tendency of Pof. John Gavin, will learn with much regret that his connection with the school will end with this year's work, he having decided to follow other pursuits, presumably law, and voluntarily resigning. He, however, we are glad to hear, will remain in The Dalles. While we regret the loss of such a competent superintendent . as Prof. Gavin, at the same time every citizen, parent and ail concerned, will feel a satisfaction that bis mantle falls on one so generally esteemed and thoroughly competent to fill the position of super intendent as is Prof. J. 8. Landers. In all of bis work in the schools during the few years be has been with us, his con scientiousness in every detail has been so evident and his success so marked,, that not the slightest hesitancy will be felt in entrusting the supervision of the schools to him. The city is very fortunate in having at band a man of his character and attainments to step in and carry on the work so well accomplished by Prof. Gavin. Coroner Verdict. Following is the verdict of the jury summoned by Justice of the Peace Bayard to hold an inquest on the body of Houston Huffman, who was accident ly killed at 15-Mile: ' We, tbeundereigned jurors summoned by O. E. Bayard, justice of the peace. and acting coroner, to enquire into the death of the person lying before us, find as follows: That the name of the deceased was Houston Huffman; that he is 12 years of ape and came to bis death by the ac cidental discharge of a shotgun in his own hands; that he was alone when the accident occurred, and that no person is in any way responsible or to blame for the accident.

Ziegler, 1 m-2d-w The Dalles, Oregon. IT WAS A LOVE MATCH. A Well Kaowa Society Man Disowned Iia family. The dashing Jack Henderson, well know in society circles, from Seattle to Frisco, is in trouble. ' It is all because of an unfortunate attachment formed last summer while on an outing and camp ing expedition with bis friends. The party was encamped among the mountains, in the base of which flows a picturesque river, and Mr. Henderson who is something of an artist in bis way, was sketching some of the peaks and crags, preparatory to transferring them to canvas. Being an enthusiast on nature, and meeting in the daughter of a farmer, nature" personified, he immediately fell in love with her. - Mips Baxter was simple, uneducated, unsophisticated country girl, but gifted with remarkable beauty. When the story leaked out, his mother, the aristocratic leader of the 400, remonstrated with bim, but in vain. He married her.- As might have been expected, such a union was productive only of quarrels and fault-finding, and it was not long before the fastidious man of fashion tired of bis country wife. She realized the reason. The vast difference in their educations and positions made it im possible that happiness could be their'e. After a quarrel, she left bim one night, and it is learned, went to an old friend whom she- bad known, who is now maintaining a fashionable training school for young ladles. What will the sequel be? Drawing on one's imagination, it is not difficult to. guess, but guessing is tiresome, tedious trouble, and everybody can save themselves all that by going to see "A Sum mer Fancy" next Wednes day night. ' - - Mercy Baxter will be interpreted by Miss Rose Michel), Jack Henderson by Mr. Percy H. Levin ; Mrs. Henderson by Mrs. G. C. Blakeley ; Edith, who first will'and then won't be engaged to Harry Woodthorp, by Miss Myrtle Michell, while Mr. Earnest Lueddeman as Harry, the philosophical and patient lover, will woo wonderfully well. " Prof. Potts by Will Frank, finally wins the gay widow, who will be admirably portrayed by Mrs. Maud Eddon. Harry Lonsdale will do the "tender old father" act.' But they do say that "doing the tender," is one of Harry's strong points,' whether it be 'mid moon lit scenes or over a choice "loin of beef." Last, but by no means least, comes Wally, Jack's brother, who can't find anything better to do than to fall in love with his sister-in-law. Will Croesen takes the part of Wally. Altogether, the play is a laughable comedy, full of wit and pathos. Under the direction of Mr. Percy H. Levin, who is an actor of ability,' a splendid performance will be given. This will be the 108th performance he bas given of "A Summer's "Fancy. Notlee. .
