We suppose tho name of the new town

there's much in tho former way of spell

Still tho flshormon on tho lower river

with tho upper river fishormen. A dis
patch from Astoria says: "The fall

but unless reports are untrue, some of
the upper river fishermen and canneries
aro already at work." Inquiry regard
ing tho matter proves this statement to
be fnlso. While the canneries may havo
been busy a portion of tho close season,
those who know eoy they wore engaged
iu putting on labels and finishing up

The Columbia may bo n dangerous
stream, but there's one little colt that
proved he wasn't afraid of it. Recently
Otis Savage presented Mrs. Garretson
with a line little colt, which is now four
months old. Mr. Garretson had it sent
across tho river with the idea of having
it cared for on that eide; but "colty"
didn't likp the idea, and getting out of
pasture, when the ferry boat came over
was down ready to return. lie was
driven b.ick, but in a short time came
down ngain, and wading in began to
swim like a Trojan. The current car
ried him down opposite the railroad
company's shope, but he-made it to
this side, if he wus a little the worse
for wear.
If anyono wants to get ahead of The
Dalles bowlers they must get up early
iu tho. morning, and then our bowlers
will stay up all night to be ahead of
them. When the team composed of
MesBre. Houghton, Mayp, Baldwin,
Nolan, Kurtz and Schmidt visited Salem
last winter and had a contest with the
team there, their hosts could not do
nnough for them and entertained them
more than royally. In vain did the boys
try to pay their bills, (that is so they
inform us and we don't like to public
ly doubt their word) for even nfter
Grant Mays, who stayed longer than the
rest, succeeded in paying, a check was
sent to him upon Die return home.
Wishing to show their appreciation of
tho kindness in some manner, they con

and Is particularly apropos as tho club
has an Indian name. It will be sent to

At an enthusiastic mooting of the
Hook and Ladder Company hold last

decided to givo a dance for tho purpose
of raising a fund to purchase a new

make necessary arrangements. It is the
intention of tho company to give such
an entertainment that all who attend
will not only feel bettor for having given
something for a good cause, but will
have the added pleasure of having spent
arTenjoyable evening. To anyone who
has lived in Tho Dallep, the necessity of
keeping up the tiro department is easily
apparent. Tho destructive conflagrations
which have visited our city, have shown
that money spent in aiding our fire de

New AnjIuih Sujif rluteniltDt.
Tho state administration in Salem
Tuesday morning made several changes
in subordinate places under its manage
ment, chief among which was a new
superintendent for the iiiEane aeylum,
for which Dr. Calbreatb, of McMinn
ville, was chosen. He is spoken of in
the highest terms, and in 1894 was
elected to the senate, wiicre he wub
conspicuous for his support of meritori
ous measures. But what the people of
Oregon are most interested in is whether
lie has a heart of sympathy for those
poor unfortunates who are entrusted to
his care. If there is a position in the
gift of the state for which the best man
in the state should be chosen, it is the
superintendent of the insane asylum ;
for how much Eooner would the friends
of these poor victims consign their
remains to the grave than to feel that
they are at the mercy of a heartless
wretch, who is careless of the atttudants
ho employs and pays little heed to what
goes on in the institution. The care of
the treatment of the remains of one of
these unfortunates from The Dalles re
cently is not to be compared to what it
would bo to have the living mistreated.
The salary of the superintendent of
the asylum is $2500 per year, and he is
by law furnished living quarters, house
hold furniture, provisions, fuel and
light from tho supplies of tho asylum
This should bo a sufficient remuneration
to insure good service, but money cannot
put a heart in a human being, aud so
we trust nature has done tho woik for
pur new superintendent.
If tho selection has been as fortunate
as that of tho superintendent at the
penitentiary, who is well known to
Dalles people as a man .of woitli, it can
not fail to givo satisfaction.
Other changes are as follows :
M. L. Chamberlln, of Salem, for chief
clerk of tho state land board to succeed
Geu. W. 11. Odell, rescued, at the
pleasure of tho board. (This election
has not been formally male, but said
to be agreed upon.)
Major O. U. Gantenbein, of Portland,
for udjutant general of the Oregon
National Guard, to succeed Brigadier
General B. B. Tuttlo on November 1st.
Col. James Jackson, U. S. A., of Port
land, for inspector general on the gov
ernor's stuff, to succeed himself.

TEACHERS' INSTITUTE-
A Good Attendance ami Much Iuterest-
Ihose Present.
The annual teachers' institute for
Wasco county convened this morning
unde r the most favorable auspices. The
weather could scarcely be more perfect,
and the lorge attendance of teachers at
the opening session indicates that a suc
cessful meeting will be had.
At 9 o'clock order was called, and
tie exercises began with singing, Supt.
J. S. Landers having charge. County
Superintendent Gilbert has so far re
covered from his illness as to be able to
be present and preside. He made a few
well chosen remarks welcoming the
teachers, after which President P. L.
Campbell gave an interesting talk on the
subject of Psychology. He showed tho
value and importance of a knowledge of
its principle in enabling the teacher to
simplify instruction and economize time
and energy, while at tho same time se
curing the best possible results in the I
way ot teaching too clnlu's mlnu.
Supt. Lindersfollowed with a talk on
Mensuration. Pursuing the method in
dicated by Pres. Campbell in his re
marks on Psychology, Supt. Landers
showed how plain surfaces may bo best
classified and presented to the pupil.
A short intermission followed, after
which the president continued his talk
on Psychology.
The morning session closed with an
Instructive lesson on Elementary Geog
raphy work by Supt. Landers.
The institute is most fortunate in its
instructors. Prof. Campbell and Supt.;
Landers potsess a thorough knowledge
of their subjects and present them iu a !
masterly manner.
At the afternoon session Miss Hattio
Stirnweis read a piper on tho teaching
of civil government. In the discussion
following, President Campbell and Supt.
Linders made eome valuable suggestions
as to tho manner of teaching this sub
ject. This waa followed by a paper on
Training for Citizenship by J. T. Neil'.
The Use of the School Library was tho
subject of the next paper by S. O,
Snerrill of Frankton School. Tho paper
was full of good thoughts as to the selec
tion ad usoof tho library, and an inter
esting discussion of tho same showed
how important is the matter of tho
school library.
It was tho sentiment of teachers that
tho state should mako provision for
supplying schools with suitablo books
for general rcadiug and reference.
It was also brought out that much has
been done by the teachers of this county
in tho way of establishing libraries iu
the schools.

attendance:
