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,

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.

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.
