This morning Ward & Robertson took
an extra conveyance to the locks for the
purpose of tranferring the touriets of
the Grant party, who will arrive Wednes
day. Jt is possible, if tho river con
tinues to fall that they may bo able to

ly such will be the case uutil Thursday.
Too much care cannot bo exorcised
during tiie months when everything is
dry ami ready to ignite at the slightest
contact with u spark of lire. The atten
tion of smokers is especially called to tho
carelessness of dropping cigars or cigai
ottes containing fire, on the sidewalk.
Today at noon when li. G. Davenport
was coming up Union street, he noticed
a small hole In the sidewalk, from which
was issuing smoke. Calliug Mr. Toomoy
of the hotel, they examined it and found
the walk was burning from beneath, but
hardly porceptable to a passer-by. A
bucket of water extinguished what might
have In a short time caused a bad fire.
Extra precaution should be used during
the dry season.
Wasco county teachers' aunual insti
tute will be held at The Dalles, Oregon,

which must be turned over to his suc
cessor in office. Under the new school
law apportionment of the school fund
will be made on the first Monday in
Jnly, October, January and April. The
apportionment for July has been made,
which was 85 cents per capita,
Among rernlnesccnces of the war,
published In yesterday's Oregonian,
tho following favorable notice appears:
"C. K. Sanders, company 1., whoso
home is in The Dalles, just kept on
shooting away and didn't know that
Filipinos were pumping lead into him at
evory chance. Finally ho tried to step
forward quickly and then fell to the
ground. 'I thought my leg was asleep
at first; somehow or other it wouldn't
work; but 1 thought littlo of that.
Then I tried to run forward a fow feet,
and fell down. At tho hospital two
bullets were taken from my right leg,
which was fractured.' "
Thli morning in hie quiet couch the
deputy sherifr was dreaming, and In hie
dreams ho waB in the wild and woolly
West, surrounded by buffalo, deer, etc.
Upon arising at 5 o'clock and looking
forth into the fair grounds, lo and be
hold a deer nict his gnzel Ho rubbed
his eyes, but found it was not all n
dream, for bounding into the forest in
the background the deer made its escape.
And ub lie guzed appeareth Lewis Porter
in search of his long lost deer. Lewis is
pretty swift, but she tkippiid him and
at last accounts he had a posse in search
and he was swearing that when she was
again captured he'd bind her with cords
of steel.

The East Etui came near being the
scene of another conflagration Saturday
evening. About fc o'clock the shed
kitchen hack of the Iieo Hive restaurant,
adjoining Dan Baker's saloon, caught
from a bonfire and quite a blaze was in
progreee when Fletch Faulkner reached
the scene with a bucket of water and
succeeded in keeping it down until the
Eust End hose company arrived and
put it out. A passing engine gave the
first alarm, and soon the tire bell
clanged out a warning which brought
everyone out on to the street and
headed toward the East End. liefore
they reached the scene the news came
down the lino that it was out aud all
felt relieved, realizing what a firo means
this timo of the year.
Honry Fowler has gone into the
livery business at Pendleton, having
purchased the Telephone stables at that
place. Ilia Dalles friends wish him suc
cess in hid new venture, and hope to
ride ufter his fierv steeds many times
when visiting Pendleton. The East
Oregonian says: "The acquisition of
the business by Mr. Fowler will bo tho
occasion for increasing the already large
patronage enjoyed by Mr. Froome. Mr. j
Fowler has been a resident of Pendleton
for several years, Hiid as an O. R.ctN.
passenger conductor made this town his
headquarters' for many .years previous.
He numbers his friends by the score,
and in hia new relation to the commun-
ty will retain them and no doubt add
mauv new ones, lie will he usbwteu in
he conduct of the business by Duward
Waflle, and will be piepared to provide
for the wants of tho public in Ids line
with all the facilities needed,"
This year eecms to bo an unparalleled
one as far as drowning are concerned,
aud the papers have almost daily been
compelled to chronicle the deuth by
drowning of one or moiu unfortunates,
who have found a watery grave in tliu
Columbia and tributary streams. The
latest death iu this manner was that of
Cynthia Dimmick, the IG-ycar old
daughter of Mrs. Geo. Perkins, who
resides near the forks of Hood River.
Cynthia ntteuded school In Tho Dalles
during the winter, making her home
with Mrs. O. S. Waud. She returned
home at the close of the term. It seems
that she and her brotner were fishing in
Hood River and were crossing tho stream
on a foot log, when she fell in. The
brother jumped in and caught hold of
the unfortunate girl, but could not hold
her In the swift current, and she floated
down to a drift a quarter of a mile be
low. The body was found five hours
later. The funeral took place .today at
Hood River.
While on his various trips to The
Dalles lu visiting the Commercial club
rooms and enjoying the hospitality of its
members, Mr, E. F. S, Newcome, of
Ridgeway, always thoughtful of the
wives aud sweethearts, noticed that the
boys who frequent the rooms in the
second story ol the building, had noth
ing to remind them of "time and the
hour," and were in danger of overstay
ing the regulation hour for all itich re
putable gentlemen to be out at night.
Accordingly ho conceived tho idea of
presenting them with a time ptecc, and
stopping around the corner to Garret
son's ordered a fine Regulator, with
black walnut case and cathedral gong.
It now adorns the walls of tho reading
room, and the members of the club
greatly appreciate the kindness of Mr.
Nowcorac, whilo their wives have sworn
friendship to one who so graciously not
only made the club a nico present but
tho females interested a great favor as
well.
Yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock
the waters of the Columbia came near
claiming as its prey one of the employes
of tho CnnoNici.K office, and Chris
Schwabo has been setlin' 'em up (type,
wo mean) all day, as he congratulates
himself that ho escaped with his life.
A number of tho young men of the city
were swimming in the river at the
D. P. & A. N. dock, and succeeded in
persuading Chris, who had never braved
the waters of the river, (except when he
fell in last summer; to join them. Be
ing brought up in a city where swim
ming was not indulged in, he found that
he was not sufficiently up in the art and
at once sank. As he rose the first time
he endeavored to grasp the boat, but in
vain. The second time he roee Victor
Sampson succeeded in getting hold of
hiB hair, but lost his grip. The third
time Chris grabbed Vic's wrist, and was
saved. While he did not lose conscious
ness, it was necessary to apply the UEual
restoratives before he could get his
breath, and the boys were much fright
ened as they realized his narrow escape.
Some one was heard to remark today
that the young ladies had persuaded
Chris he was a "duck,"' and therefore
he was induced to try his swimming
proclivities. In the future they will
keep strings on him. Joking aside, we
congratulate ourselves on the fact that
we are not minus one of the favorites of
the office.
DIED IN PORTLAND-
After Much SulIVrlnp Kdward Frcclnntl
.lenkluB DIcr of l'erltoiil tie.
Aflerdays of anxious wailing, first
receiving discouraging news, then u
hopeful message, last night about 12 :H0
o'clock Mrs. S. Bolton received word
from the hospital at Portland that
Edward Jenkins had just ceased gutter
ing and breathed his last.
Among the many grevioua tasks of a
newspaper reporter, perhaps none is
more difficult than to chronicle the
deatli of a young man or woman who is
just enterine upon tho active duties of
life, particularly bo when such an one is
a personal friend. And eo, as we think
of Edward as we have met him from
early childhood, it is with deep regret
and much sympathy for his bereaved
relatives that we mention his demice.
Although having been born at Ochoco
twenty-three years aco this fall, and
spending iiis childhood away from here,
he was virtually a Dalles boy, receiving
much of his schooling here undt r the I
care of his grandmother and iiis uncle, I
Simeon Bolton, for, with two brothers
and a sister, lie was left an orphan ;
eleven yeais ago, his father dying inj
18S7 and hia mother in the following ,
year.
He was never a robust child, and as
ho grew to manhood showed signs that
his would probably not be a long life.
However, about a year ago hu began
studying at tho Holmes business college,
uud graduating but a few months since
with hiirh honors, was fortunatu enough
to obtain a spleudid position as stenog
rapher in the O. It. & N. cilleo in Port
land. His studies were, however, in
terrupted in January by 11 serious ill
ness, which proved to be appendicitis.
Tho doctor advised lilm at that time to
have tho necetsaty operation performed,
but. improving rapidly and being
anxious lo finish his studies, lie con
cluded to await developments. On July
4th, after returning from 11 walk with
his sister, ho experienced gieat pain
and ut 5 o'clock Dr. McKcnzie called
and pronouncing it uppendicitis, had
liiiu at once taken to St. Vincent hos
pital, where on Thursday an operation
was performed. Hu rallied from it, and
his relatives supposing ho would soon
be entirely well, returned home. He
had, however, delayed the operation too
long and the result was not what was
expected and peritonitis developed. He
suffered the most excrutiatiug pains,
aud last Thursday it was found neces
sary to again operate 011 him, aud again
yesterday, removing puss, which col
lected and would at auy rate cause his
death. All efforts were in vain, and
many hours before his death Edward
became reconciled and prayed to bo re
leased from his suffering, which release
came shortly after midnight.
lie leaves a sister, Miss Joele, and
two brothers, Carey and Coke, beside
several aunts, uncle and cousins to
mourn his loss.
Ills remains were brought to this city
on the evening tram, and arrangements
for the funeral will be made later. It
will no doubt occur tomorrow evening
from tho residence of S. Bolton, on the
hill.
Moonllclit Kacurmun,
In honor of the visiting delegates the
members of the A. O. U. W. of tins city
will give a moonlight excursion down
the river tomorrow evening, the Regu
lator leaving the deck at 0 o'clock. No
charge will bo made to delegates, but
others who may desiro to enjoy the trip
will be charged 50 cente. This will be
n delightful trip, as the moon is just
right theee nights, and witii music by

bo lacking.
