bo substantial, no little excitement will
be caused here, and these gentlemen
claim a company may be formed to
erect u smelter and work same on
custom work.
It had been planned and advertised
that the Dalles City would leave Port
land at 8 o'clock this morning with a
party of touiiets from New York, reach
ing here early in the afternoon, and
starting back at 4 o'clock, thus giving
thoBo who cleelro an opportunity to take
advantage of the excursion rateB to
Portland, reaching there at 10 o'clock.
Presumably on account of tho rainy
weather the excursionists gavo up tho
trip, and therefore tho Dalles City stayed
in Portland and the afternoon trip was
abandoned. Many who had planned to
go down were much disappointed.
The Oregon Short Line, it is an
nounced from an authoritative source,
has decided to begin tho erection of
pormanent locomotive and ropnir siiops
at Pocatello, Idaho, and the work upon
the new buildings will begin before tho
close of the present year. It is stated
in t liia connection that the Short Line
shops of Shoshone, Idaho, built many
years ago by Charles Francis Adams,
when lie was connected with the Union
Pacillc, and long einco abandoned, will
be torn down and the material brick
and stone used in their construction
moved to Pocatello for use in tho new
buildings there. Thousands of dollars
are being paid each year on these vacant
shops at Shoshone, and by using tho
material at Pocatello this item of ex
pense will be saved.
Nothing could bo more welcome (unless
itjia tho soldier boys) than the delightful
shower which mndo its appearance dur
ing the night, settling the dust, clearing
the atmosphere and making everyone
glad. In the elty we had .04 of an Inch ;
and havo been hoping all day that tho
threatening storm would materialize,
but only a few drops have deigned to
fall. From all reports the storm is gen
eral throughout the country, and far
more copious, extending out beyond
Sherar's Bridge and Bakeoven. No
damnge can result from the ruin, and a
day or two more of it would not injure
the grain, unless it was too heavy. The
campers along the river received their
share and at Casoades all the spare can
vas was brought into play, doing good
service as canopies. It will probably
not continue, but just come to take pity
on us after the dreadful dust storm we
have experienced.
Tomorrow tte eloied eeaion for fish
log begins and coutinuea until the 10th
of September. Ah far as fishing along
the river here li concerned it might aa
well bo a continued closed season this
year, for virtually no catch has been
made. At Seufert's there has been
about a fifth of the usual catch, while
others have done simply nothing In
that line. Tho fishermen along the
lower river complain that theie is alco
a shortage there, and that the combine
is 100,000 cases short of what they ex
pected. They claim the long-continued
high water is partially the cause, and
also that seals nnd ecu lions havo anni
hilated the pnlmon. They have, how
ever, hal a fair catch there. At the
Catcides tho catch has been about as
usual. We on tho middle Columbia
claim that we have worse than sea lions
to contend with, our enemy being tho
leads put out at and near tho Cascades,
which will not admit of tho fish passing.
This, our fishermen aver, is unlawful
and our legislature should protect us
against them, by prohibiting their use.
If not, tho fishing industry is a dead
letter along this part of tho river.
DEATH'S SENSATION.
Tom Scott Knter the "Valley of tlio
Nliudow" mill ConiCH IlncK
Ono of the most peculiar experiences
ever recorded was that of Tom Scott, an
aged citizen cf this place, sayB the East
Oregonian. Mr. Scott is 79 years old,
and lias lived in this region for 49 years.
He has been sick with a complication of
heart and stomach troubles, and under
constant watchfulness for many days.
Mr. It. M. O'Brien has been one of the
watchers, and he relates the story, which
will appeal to everyone as remarkable.
Mr. Scott was gradually einking, and
two mornings ago at. a few minutes alter
midnight made up his mind that be was
dying. He resigned himself to his fate,
and settled himself to receive the sum
mons to travel to that mysterious realm
from which one is supposed never to ie
turn. To all intents and purposes, he
did actually travel part of the way (to
ward that realm, and literally, in the
words of the author of Thsinatopfeip,
"wrapped the drapery of his couch
about him, and lie down to pleasant
dreams."
His feet nnd hands gradually grew
colder, and for a time there was a com
plete cessation of animation. II !b pulse
ceased to beat, indicating that the heart
had given up its function. The cold
ness of feet and bands crept upwards,
until there was left not a sign that life
remained within the body. He was
fcivon up for dead.
But, Death, which apparently had
decided to claim this aged traveler along
life's 'roadway, altered hie plans, and
once again life brcan to appear in the
wasted bodv, and in a few hours Mr.
Scott was in better health than he had
enjoyed for several weeks. He aroso
from the lart;u chair in which his heart
trouble had compelled him to remain,
instead of u bed, and went about the
house in his us.ua! manner. In speak
ing of the experience, Mr. Scott said :
"In a sense, I have died, and gone
through all the sensations of death. OI
course, I was not dead. But I ilrmly
believe I experienced every feeling of
ono who really dies. And, now I must
pass through these experiences again,
for I uiUBt die very soon. Having had
this experience, I now know exactly
what it is to die, and when the time
comes for me really to die, I know just
what to look forward to."

HOW WE RECEIVE THEM.
With nprn Arm, Nolur Cannon, Mimic,
flpnechn anil a Grand Itall.
The 4th of July won't be in it with the
day the boys come marching home, and
that day, or evening, will be Saturday,
and the hour, as near as wo can tell, is
5:30 o'clock. Mr. Allaway will bend
every energy to havo tho boat hero no
later than that.
A ucetmg of tho gcnoral committee
was held last evening at the club rooms,
with Mayor Knrk presiding, when the
entire plan for tho reception was re
viewed and arrangements mado concern
ing it. While these have not as yet
taken definite shape, they will be about
as follows, and it is especially desired
that each citizen co-operate to carry
them out in every detail:
A committee of reception will meet
them at the Cascades, and as soon as
the Regulator Is sighted from this city
tho firing of anvils, tooting of whistles,
ringing of bells, and in fact every means
of announcing their coming will be em
ployed, and continued until the landing
is made, Tho committee has no desire
to interfere with the reception and wel
come which will take place on the dock,
that will take care of itself, other than
the ladies have arranged that a parade
of little children will be on hand with
flowers, and the band will also welcome
them with music. As soon as possible
the parade will take place, ending at the
armory, where a banquet will bo given
immediately afterward, followed by a
general reception.
In the evening the reception con
tinues, including a few very short
speeches, music by the band and two
vocal selections. The exerciees will
close with a ball, for which the best of
music will be engaged. The bill will be
given in deference to a request from the
boys, who Bay they have danced to keep
out of the reach of the bullets, and
would enjoy a change of program in the
dancinc line. This would indicate that
they have not left their arms ia San
Francisco after all.
There are many minor details in con
nection with the reception which will
add greatly to its effectiveness; but
those mentioned are the principal
features.
The committee has telephoned and
also written to prominent men in our
neighboring towns requesting them to
invite their-citi.ens to join us in our cel
ebration. Word has aho been sent to
relatives of the boys.
