Tho Shaw Company has afforded the
people of The Dalles much pleasure dur

and judging from the large box of pro
visions, something to eat as well.

more Sundays until Mr. vVood will leave

of tho church this being his fifth year at
Tho Dalles, must of necessity be the

Another proof of Portland's bungling
regarding Tho Dalles and Dallas was
furnished ub this morning when the
long-distanco tulephonu rang and upon
answering it and endeavoring in vain to
catch the drift of conversation carried
on by the one who had called us, we at
length found that some man in Portland
had asked for a printing office at Dallas
and was given The Dalles. It's time now
for Dallas to kick, for even the telephone
people don't recognize her existence.
In commenting on the ball accepted in
the caeo of Frank Collins, who was ar
rested for appropriating property belong
ing to Willis Hendricks near Dufur,
the Dispatch says: "It was indeed a
Bhock to this community, for Frank
Collins waB sure of a job at Salem for
Beveral years. The property he dis
posed of belonging to Mr. Hendricks
would reach the $1000 mark in valae,
and why the authorities in The Dalles
turned such a man loose on so small a
bail is something we can't understand."
Regarding the new ctfptaiu of the
Regulator, tho Uregonian says: "Cap
tain Charles W. Alden, formerly mate
on the steamer Dalles City, of Tho
Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation
Company, has been appointed roaster of
the Itegulator. Captain Alden has been
in the employ of the company live years,
and is considered one of the best men
on the upper river. He was feinted for
the captaincy of the Inland Flyer, but
aa that boat has not yet proved satis
factory, another place was found for
him. Captain Sherman, whom he suc
ceeds, is now on a towboat on the lower
river."
The Hwppner Gazette Is justly indig
nant at the reports which some of their
neighboring pHpershave been circulating
regarding the emallpox situation there,
and after denying some exaggerated
statement! cays: "The emullpor situa

Oliver Cromwell IJartnieEs, -of Hood
River, spent yesterday in this city, en
route to Kugeno where he goes to visit
two nieces who reeido in that city. Mr.
Bartmess expects to cover tie major
part of the trip uwhetl, having on
Wednesday ridden from Portland to this
city, a distance ot over fifty miles, in
less than niue hours. He Wit the
metrojKjlis at 7 :IW o'clock that morning
and reached tho Capital City about
1 o'clock in the afternoon. Tho fact
that Mr. Bartmess covered this distauee
awlieel in the time specified would not
appear uuusual or arouse any particular
notice, were it not (hut tho rider will
celebrate his eightieth birthday on
October 1st., next. Although so nearly
an octogenarian, Mr. Bartmess is in tiie
best of health and his faculties ure not
impaired In the least, lu fact he ia a
very active person for one of ids years.
He was, naturally, quite exhausted
after his long bicycle ride and decided
to remain lu this city yesterday for rest,
expecting to resume his journey this
morning, although, when seen yesterday
afternoon, he had not decided whether
ho would continue up the valley awheel
or abandon that mode of travel for the
more comfortable and expeditious pas
senger train. Salem Statesman.

FARMER 8TEBBIN8 WAS THERE.
And lift Krpt the AudlfincA In ft Hoar or
Laughter A Typical flayteeil.
Packed does not express It when re
ferring to the house which greeted the
Shaw company last night In "Farmer
Stebbins." Tho people were crowded
in like sardines, and it was tho quietest,
most orderly audience of the engage
ment, giving all an opportunity io enjoy
every part of tho play and tho delight
ful music by tho orchestra. "Cavalloria
Kusticana" was especially pleasing, as
was also the selection "Nigger in the
Barnyard," the work in the latter being
most novel.
"Farmer Stebbins," which was written
by Shaw himself, is virtually a one-part
play, but with such an actor aa Sam
Shaw in the lead, is as much appre
ciated as if the best acting of each
character on the fctago were called into
play. Never haB n Dalles audience seen
such a hayseed role played. He teat
Stebbins, and none could detect Shaw in
the whole play. In tho first place, the
conception of tho character as true to
life, and carried out in a perfect man
ner. His unsophisticated manner and
odd remarks kept the audience In a roar
of laughter. As to the make-up, it
could not be beat; and one lady who
had not seen them before was heard to
remark that she had heard Shaw was a
handsome man, but no one could make
her believe there was anything even
good looking about him after seeing him
in last night's play,
While it was really a one-part play,
tho requirements of tho other characters .
were well met and some clever acting
was done. In the last act come good
speciality work was introduced, partic
ularly the dancing, for they, make no
pretention as to singing. There are,
however, some splendid dancers in the
company, and one seldom sees a more
what might be termed versatile dancer
than Miss Kelton.
When Mr. Shaw stepped out to make
bis usual announcements (not about the
matinee) he waB presented with a hand
some bouquet from the Elks of the city,
which he accepted very gracefully. It
was an immense bouquet tied with ElkB
colors.
Tonight will be the last opportunity
to see the company for some time to
come. Mr. Shaw has selected "The
Phoenix" as his farewell bill. The play
is too well known to need an intro
duction, as it has been seen here before.
One Edltor'H Opinion.
Here's what a Carlinvillo, 111., editor
?ays about The Dalles, and one thing
is certain, none'' of the exaggerated
stories which were told some of the
editors reached his curs, for he has, if
anything, underestimated his figures
concerning our commercial value. He
says :
"The first city of importance wo
reached in the Columbia valley waB
The Dalles, which looked stately with
its magnificent trees, large brick blocks,
mammoth warehouses, beautiful resi
dences and well kept lawns. We were
surprised to learn that The Dalles,
where Generals Grant and Sheridan
learned the rudiments of warfare, is one
of tho chief commercial cities of the
Northwest. The surrounding country
is noted for its magnificent fruit lands,
broad plateaus with their waving grain
and a great expanse of growing country
that producec meat to feed an empire
and clothe a nation.
"The Dalles is the head of navigation
on tho Middle Columbia; owns its own
waterworks at a cost of $150,000, has
tho best water, beiug brought from tho
foothills of Mt. Hood ; the center of the
best fruit belt on tho coast; tho greatest
original shipping point iu the United
States, it ships annually 2500 tons of
canned salmon, $75,000 worth of fresh
fish, 000,000 buthda of wheat, 5000 head
of cattle, 100,000 head of sheep, 0,000,
000 pounds of wool. The country sends
$50,000 worth of strawberries to the
Eastern markets, and ships $50,000
worth of other fruit.
