A lank anil nwkatd countryman pre
sented himself nt the clerk's desk in a
Huston hotel, and, after having a room
assigned to him, inquired at what hours
meals wero served. "Ilrenkfast from
seven to eleven, luncheon from eleven to
three, dinnur from three to eight, supper
from eight to twelve," said . the clerk
glibly. "Jerushyl" ejaculated the
countryman, with wide open eyes;
"when am 1 going to get time to see the

On Monday Mrs. Holen J. Parent, of
this city, received word of the death of
hor mother, Mrs. Margaret Lowellen, in
.Salem. On account of the illness of Mr.
Parent, she wiih unable to attend tlio
funeral, wnlch occurred at that place
yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Lmvellen
was 8:1 years old mid en old Marion
county pionoer, having crossed the
plains from Indiana In 1852. J. O.
Dowuio, of Vancouver was a son of the
doceused.
II. Glnun niturnod laBt night from
llwaco beach, w hero his family are now
comfortably settled in their now cottage.
Ho says the weather thoro is perfectly
delightful and tho damn and crabs more
plentiful than over. At Soaviow whore
his cottage is located, is tiio Dalles
colony, who aro all well and happy. W.
Lord has remodoled the cottage on tho
ridge, whloh was formorly occupied by
Mrs. Lnughlin, and they will ocoupy
that this season, while their cottage will
bo runted by M. Mclnnie.
A dispatch from Vancouver says : The
annual forest fires have been started,
and in a short time Vancouver will lie
enveloped in smoke, unless loinething is
done to check the flames. Yesterday
afternoon a dense cloud of smoke began
to settle In the north, and by 4 o'clock
Mt. Adams was shut ont from view.
Later in tho evening Mt. St. Helens
could scarcely be made out. Late in the
afternoon fire broke ont in the woods on
the Love place, on the Oregon shore, and
a dense cloud of smoke hung over Wood
lawn all the evening.
Rev. John Morrison, pastor of the
Calvary Baptist church in Portland,
died yesterday morning nt Yellowstone
park, whither he had gone with Ilev.
Edgar Hill for a vncation. Last Satur
day ho was taken ill with inflammation
of tho bowels and though prominent
physicians were summoned, he never
rallied. Ho was a favorite of ills con
gregation and of Portland people in
general. It has not yet been decided
whether his remains will be taken to his
old home in New York or brought to
Portland for burial.
President Mellen of the Northern Pa
ciflc, was also nn occupant oi tlio special
train which passed through this city
yesterday. It is understood President
Mellen's trip to Portland is to confer
with President Mohler relative to mak
ing a traffic arrangement whereby the
Northern Pacific may use the O. It&
N.'s track for its cars and thereby form
a new water route for its line en route to
the Hound. If Euch an arrangement
can not be or is not effected it is quite
distinctly understood the Northern Pa
cific will immediately begin its parallel
route down the Snake.
Yesterday something in connection
with the machinery of the Dalles City
got out of gear and it was thought best
not to attempt to make the rapids. The
Regulator, therefore, went through and
mot her, when a transfer was made and
she went back to Portland. The diffi
culty is being repaired and a transfer
will again be made today, but tomorrow
she will bo able to make her regular
trip. That, with the largo load of wool
which was taken down by the Regulator
yesterday, caused the latter steamer to
bo delayed in reaching here until 10:30
o'clock. She ie due tonight about 7:15.
ThiB morniug Engineer Strike and
party, who are surveying for the road
across the river, discovered the body of
a man floating: in the big eddy on the
Washington side. They eucceeded in
securing tlio body und fastening it so
that it would not wash out, and word
was sent to Coroner Hart at Golden-
uaie, wno will come over at once
and hold an inquest. The body was
that of a comparatively young man,
well clothed and in a good state of
preservation. The men did not examine
it thoroughly only as much as was nec
essary to secure it. Tho pockets of the
coat, however, seemed to lie well filled
with articles and the clothes wore in
good share.
An impression is now prevalent in
Portland that "Jack the Strangler" is
abroad, seeking out victims. A few
nights since a man attempted to strangle
Mrs. Ernest itailey on North Ninth
street as she wiib returning from lodge.
A gentleman heard her ccreams and
came to her assistance, but the culprit
cfc.ipt'd. Tho ease is somewhat similar
to that of tiie liend who some months
since was taking liven by shooting
through windows, Mies Wallace having
been killed in Penilluton, audr.n attempt
being made to murder a lady in Portland
in tho same manner. Witli such a stuto
ofatFairP, ono never knows hou soon
some blood-thirsty villian may choose
llmm as his pre.
Receiver Otis Patterson tells us that
ho received a letter from Ileppner tins
morning, which inform him that the
smallpox eciiro is abating, and that no
serious results are feared. The three
cases and till who have been exposed
are strictly quarantined, and it is hard
ly possible for it to ppread further.
E. M. Shutt's case is a serious one, but
lie lias tlio best of care, Dr. Rlalock
having charge of hie case. Tho two
Driscoll children have light cuees.
This is tho second smallpox scare
Heppuor has had in twenty years. In
the early '80s it became epidemic there
and many died. In opposition to otiier
contagious diseases smallpox is said not
to thrive well in hot weather. While
tho scaro has injured business to a j
great extent, it is again picking up and
no risk is inn in visiting tiie place.
Bicyclists have come to believe that
every man's hand is against them and
that soon riding will be prohibited al
together. We confess it is hard lines
when tho sidewalks are denied them,
and the Email portion of the street
which is not peppered with reck, is
apriuklod no that it is impossible to
tido on them. On tho other hand many
who rido wheels aro extremely careless
when it comes to passing teams. Know
ing that it is far easier for them to get
out of the team's way than tor a driver
to turn his horses so as to avoid them,
they persist in riding pell mell right up
to tho horse's head and put the driver
to.bis wit's end to know which way to
turn. Surely a team should be given
the right of way. Particularly danger
ous is it when to inauy children have
taken to riding wheels, and thoughtleis
ly shoot in and out among teams. The
wonder in that there are not more
accidents.
A COLLISION.
Hlmnnann and Frank Menfee Col
lide While Ont Driving No
Serintm Injury.
It is not surprising during these
beautiful evenings, when so manv are
taking advantage of the opportunity to
enjoy a ride and thus benefit by the
cooling atmosphere, that accidents oc
casionally occur. The great surprleo is
that more have not taken place, particu
larly so when wo consider the number of
bicycles which lide to and fro among
the buggies, and tho little caro which
tho riders seem to tako to keep from
under the horses' hoofs.
What might have been a very eerious
accident took place last evening about
8:45, on tho courthouse corner, when a
team diiven by James Simoneon collided
with Frank Menefee's horse and bntgy.
The former was going up Union street
and about to .turn tiie corner of Third,
und Mr. Menefee, who had Prof. Gilbert
out driving, was coming down the
street. It was quite dusk, but the
gentlemen claim thy had plenty of
room to pass had not several little girls
on wheels attempted to turn tho corner
at the same time, and to avoid running
over them Mr. Simonson gave his horse
a slight turn, coming in contact with the
wheels of Mr. Menefee's buggy. This
frightened the horse, which reared up
and almost got its feet iuto the other
buggy, The tongue struck Mr. Gilbert
on the left leg, but in some manner he
succeeded in getting out cf tho buggy.
Mr. Menefee also got out, but held to
tbe reins, until teeing Mr. Gilbert's
condition, and knowing how helpless he
was to get ont of tho horse's way, he
let go of the reins and went to his is
suance. A number iiad gathered, and it
was soon found he was not seriously
hurt, having received a slight bruise on
tho leg which was injured before, and
another bruise on his arm. He was
sliakrn up pretty badly, nnd in his
weak, helpless condition, it is a mercy
he was not killed. Mr. Huntington
came along with his buggy and con
veyed Mr. Gilbert to his home. He
has not been able to walk at all, merely
crawling about, and has creatly enjoyed
the ride6 which Mr. Menefee. has given
him.
Beinc let loose, Menefee's horse lit
out for Serond street, and in front of
the postofltce the ri ins became entangled
in the wheel and slackened his epeeii,
when Lewis Porter stopped him.
The young lady who was dtivine with
Mr. Simonson jumped from the buggy
and was not hurt. Mr. Simonson tcon
got his team under control.
It waa an accident in which no one
seemed to be to blame, and was, after
all, a fortunate one for thoso corcerned.
Aa Mr. Gilbert said to his family, "I
am a subject for coiicratu'atioii." To
his friends he seem to bo particularly
unfortunate as regaids accidents.
pointed strongly to him as the right msn,
and he was arrested. Mr. Walton has
never been looked upon as thattort of
a man by people here, and many are
surprised that he shculd have gotten
mixed up in such an affair.
Deputy Sexton returned laet night, at
which timo no date had been set for the
trial.
An IJonrnt Man.
Some time ago Gov. T. T. Gcer received
a call from a discharged convict, who,
like many of the men in his condition,
desired financial assisstnnce, to enable
, him to reacli some point where he could
secure work. The man, who was a
cripple, did not ask for n large Eiitr., $1
being all he required. The governor told
him that many similar calls were made
upon him, and lie could not furnish all
discharged prisoners witli means to be
gin life anew, but, in this case, he
would assist the petitioner, upon the
latter's promise to rciund the amount,
when he earned money and could spare
it. This was several months ago, and,
one day last week, the governor received
eeveral letters from the ex-prisoner, say
ing that he had earned money o.i the
sheep range in Eastern Oregon, and that
he would forward the amount of his debt
at the first opportunity. This week the
money came, in the shape of a money
order for $1. Governor Geer is much
pleased, not on account of the money
involved, but for the honesty shown by
the ex-prisoner. S.ilem Statesman.
THE SILK SKIRT WRIST.
Itukliery nt Dufur,
Mondav niirht Dufur was treated to a
genuine robbery, but, for fear of frustrat
ing tiie plans of the officers to capture
the culpiit, no publicity wu? given to
the matter.
At 9 o'clock that evouinc someone cut
a hole in the glass door of Johnston's
store and putting his arm through, un
locked it and thus gained nn entrance.
Going to the till he secured about $0 or
$7 in ch tugi'. Then opening a safe which
belonged to A. J. Biiuliain, the combina
tion of which was not in use, $30 or 40
as taken and a lot of valuable papers.
Word was sent to the eherili' here and
Deputy Sheriff Sexton went out Tuesday.
Work was begun on the case and Jifl.
Walton, of this cltv a painter uho is
well known heie, was arrested as a ens
ued. Itannears Walton had uoiio out
from this city Saturday and had been
ancini; around the 'store all day Mon
day, none knowing what his business
,-as. Then it was determined that tho
lasshnd hiu-u cut with a diamond which
i alaoufed by painters a? a puttv knife.
Iie6e, with many other evidences,
There's n new dincam prcvaillnpr. ach pbyti
cian'h skill iis'HillnK, and In bnllliug dlagno
hs It perversely d"th persist;
Tho no microbe in it's linking, 'tis insMiniiBly
woikitig, and the healers wise for once have
dubbed It simply '-silk shirt wrist."
It attacks tbe winsome maiden with her sum
mer freshness lndon, tnd confines itself
exclusively unto the fairer sex;
And thev do not care to cure it, but are willing
to endure It, mid they revel in the glory
which this new disease reflects.
It requires n proper holding of the outer skir',
and folding, to expose the bright-hued
nearsilk underneath sutlleieutly.
That the silken robo may dngle into view, a
certiiin angle of the hand must be maintained
with firmness and persistently.
So a maiden soon discovers that the end allllction
hovers all around her, jet she never for a
moment has a fear:
Ilut she trips the highway with her garments
rustling gajly, und tho holds them in such
manner that the silk one doth appear.
What are aching wrist and finger?, or the pain
that in them lingers? What's the dillVreiicc
if the silk sUrt wrist disease attacks the
maid?
For 'tis better far to suffer than to be a slllv
dutl'er and go out upon the street without
the swishing skirt displayed.
Now when next you hear a rustle, irnrk the
rf gi.ui of the bustle and you'll see with what
dexterity she gives th r roper twist
To the ovctsklit, disclosing gaudy silk that is
reposing underneath it and then rest us
surred she has the "silk skirt wrist."
