The Dalles, January 10, 1899. WAYSIDE GLEANINGS. A special meeting of water commis sioners is called for Friday morning at 10 o'clock. The Umatilla bouse is receiving a new coat today, not of many ' colors, bat white paint. Nothing improves the ap pearauce of a building more than a fresh coat of paint. Two days of special meetings will be held at the Salvation Army hall Satur day and Sunday, conducted by Staff Captain and Mrs. Willis from Portland Everybody invited. If yon want to have good Jemey milk delivered twice a day at yonr bftme, yon may be supplied by applying to Bert Bagley, who will bring you the best of milk morning and evening. 28 -3 1 Dr. Geisendorffer who was called to Wamic on account of the eerions illnees of Mrs. Frank Woodcock, who is well known here, returned last night and re porta her condition much improved. Gdb. Purser, a deck band on the Reg ulator, stopped off at White Salmon Monday, and yesterday when he boarded the boat bound for Portland on a wed ding trip, he was accompanied by an assistant Parser. When the Regulator goes down to as- etards at 41 ; but we are now safe, as the rivers above are . rising only slightly. Yesterday's bulletin says that cooler weather prevails oyer the Columbia. The temperature in the mountains was near the freezing point during the night. This cool period, the coolest for two weeks, will check the melting of the snqw and allow a fall of several feet in the rivers before tbe next warm period can melt sufficient enow to cause them to rise again. Warmer weather will prevail for several days, from Wednes day, but as it is thought that the snow is off the lower levels, there appears to be no danger of any farther material rise. From a telephone message received from W. H. Hurlburt, of the O. R. & N. Co., it was thought the editors would reach this city Monday evening and re main over until the morning ot the 4th, thns giving ns a splendid opportunity to entertain them and show them our city. Later word, however, was to the effect that they cannot reach here till early Tuesday morning, stopping only long enough for breakfast. It is now planned to give them breakfast at tbe Umatilla House, and if possible take them a short drive about the city. About $40 was realized from the play given for this put pose, and it will be necessary to call upon the citizens foF"a. small contribu tion to meet the deficit. All should re spond liberally for no sncb opportunity has ever been offered our city for adver tising as this. We cannot afford to let it pass unheeded, and fail to give these distinguished visitors a royal reception. In spite of Ringling Bros, endeavor to have no accompanying skin games, ho bos, etc., following them, when they reached Moscow last Sunday they had with them a menagerie of tramps. It seems that the Weary Willies wanted to gel out of town, so about sixty of them secreted themselves aboard tbe five cir cus trains as they pulled ont of Lewiston during the night. As the trains neared Moscow the rising day revealed many of tbe hobos to the management. Abont five miles below town a stop was made and all the Willies that could be found were summarily yanked from their po sitions and left upon the right of way. When, at 3 o'clock the trains arrived at Moscow and stopped for water a thorough search was made and thirty-two more hobos were brought to light. Tbe nightwatchman arrived on the scene with a savage looking bull-dog and a billy club, and the hobos were pre vented from going np town. Later on the others arrived from where they had been put off down the track. The marshals were kept busy all day, and it was nearly evening before the last hobo disappeared up the track toward Pullman. The Modern Beauty. Thrives on good food and sunshine, with plenty of exercise in the open air. Her form glows with health and her face blooms with its beauty. If her system needs the cleaning action of a laxative remedy, she uses the gentle and pleasant Syrup of Figs, made by the California Fig Syrup Co. only. DAVID GARRISON ARRESTED For sist in escorting the boys up the river, there'll not be a steamer inlhe squadron that will present a more Jewell appear ance, for she 11 be decorated to suit the queen's taste. Ernest Jfensen will un derstand just how to tog'her np, and A. fli. Williams 3c Co. have consented to let him superintend the work. M.K. Thompson, who assanlted Breen ai tveicnum s rancn Monday and was put in jail for failure to furnish bail, paid over his $15 and was discharged last evening. It is too bad that such petty cases should be brought up and a jury inai nau, tnns putting tbe county to so much expense. If possible tbev should be settled out of court or with a mini mum expense to the county. M. F. Boyles and Tim Brown arrived at Oregon City, Saturday, from Eastern Oregon with a band of horses. They made the trip by the Barlow road, and say they are the first to come over that road this season. Mr. Boyles reports that there is more or less snow for a distance of forty miles. Boyles and Brown had difficulty in getting through places where the snow lay twelve feet deep. The Bnow seems to be melting very slowly at tbe summit. ine not eprings ana various camping places along the Columbia will not be overlooked by Oregonians this year, Mrs. Jewett has made many improve ments in her summer resort at White Salmon, and for some timepast she has bad application enough from Portland people to fill her house. The resorts at Wind river bid fair to receive their share of patronage also. W.D. Hadlev is now engaged in bnilding aAtotel at the Car son hot springs, just back of Sprague which win no doubi attract many, as good accommodations are what has been lacking to make the hot eprings better patronized. "No more high water this year." So says tbe report from Portland today The Columbia is coming np a little, and SOO Reward. Attempting: to Obtain a Pension Under False Pretense. S. L. Morse, U. S. depnty marshal, came np from Portland laet night for the purpose of arresting David Garrison, of this city, who is charged with making false statements in order to secure a pension. It seems that as far back as 1892 Gar rison purchased tbe discharge certificate of one John Barrett, who was a soldier in company M, Second Wisconsin Vol unteer Cavalry, with tbe intention of reaping the benefits which might be de rived from a pension, and at once set to work to procure it. At that time he made his declaration of invalidism be fore Geo. P. Morgan, then clerk, but in his own name. Finding no such soldier as having belonged to tbe company, in quiry was made and Garrison claimed to have enlisted under the assumed name of Barrett, for several reasons, one of which was that he had run away from home. Suspicion having been aroused, an inspector was sent to this place and he was placed in a sweat box. After telling his story over again, he finally acknowledged the entire proceedings. He waived examination today and was bound over in the sum of $1000. Bondsmen were secured and he is now at liberty. Mr. Garrison has lived in Tbe Dalles for many years and has always been considered an honest, harmless fellow. He is now receiving a pension of $8, having been unfit to support himself since service in the war, and it is thought by people of this city that he does not fully realize what his crime is, and is not responsible therefor. When questioned concerning it today, he did not seem to comprehend the true state of affaire, nor to realize what he had done.

From Leo Rondeau, who returned from Portland last night, having taken some horses down to dispose of, reports the market there as having th bottom knocked cut of it. While he was fortu nate in disposing of his band, he says many who went down from here took their bands to Southern Oregon to find a better market. The following communication, which has been received from the Union Stock Yards in Chicago, may be of interest to dealers : Chicago, June 23, 1899. Dear Sib: We have done nothing in five years with range horses, nor have we attempted to do anything. The low prices prevailing generally on horses of all kinds, but more particularly on native, broken, and unbranded horses made it impossible to handle the others of the range class to any advantage, so that in the meantime we abandoned the field and encouraged no man to ship. but conditions are now diuerent: we believe they are entirely favorable for a movement on a large scale of good branded western horses, but we do not believe the miscellaneous assortment of nondescripts will sell to any advantage, while on the contrary we do believe that tbe biggest and best, none to weigh less here than 1100 pounds, and from that up to the heaviest and draitiest that are bred on the ranges will sell readily at prices satisfactory to the shipper. We have been working up a sentiment among the people generally for the past two or three months to handle these horses, and feel more or less assured that 4,000 or 5,000 head can be handled in the next four mouths, at prices very mnch better than could have been obtained during the past five years of depression. We have made arrangements to hold our first sale ot these about the middle of July and would strongly encourage anybody that has a bunch of good drafty-built horses to push them for ward as quickly as possible. Advise ns in the meantime when you intend ship ping, the number, size, weight, ages etc., so that we may intelligently adver tise the sale broadcast. An imiuediate response to this will be highly appreci ated, and we believe will prove mutually advantageous. Yours truly, J. S. Cooper cation has fixed npon the same time, August 9th, 10th and 11th, as tbe time for examination for all applicants for state papers. In this connection, please eee rules and regulations nnder "Teach ers Examinations", Oregon School Laws. "Examination of applicants for state papers will be held in August and Feb ruary of each year. "After the Angnst examination of this year, questions will be taken as follows: All questions in theory and practice and one-fifth of the questions in Arithmetic, grammer, geography and reading, will be taken from White Elements of Pedagogy. All the questions in litera ture will be taken from Smith's Studies in English Literature; and all the ques tions in Psychology will be taken from Buell's Essentials of Psychology. The state board of education has de cided to take these books as standards for two reasons : First, because the normal schools have adopted them as textbooks; and eecond, because there has been a feeling on the part of many of the leading educators that some credit shonid be given to those who are stu dents of professional books and it has been suggested that a good way to give this credit would be to base a part of tbe questione for state and county papers npon certain indicated books.. Acting on such suggestion, the state board of education makes the above announce ment, believing that in so doing the educational standard of tbe state will be materially raised." A Card of Thaults.
