Gov. T. T. Geer Monday received a

It is not likely that Senators Foster
and Simon will be able to accomplish
anything toward commuting the sentence
of Private Dainpholler, the Vancouver
boy, who, with Private Conitue, was
sentenced to death for nssnulting Fili
pino women, since it is said that the
president has fully determined not to
interfere in the execution of the
sentence. The sentence of the court
martial will be carried out aa soon as
the proceedings and findings in the two
casea can be reviewed nnd approved bj
him, unless there should bo some irregu
larity about the proceedings.
Still another boy ia missing from
Portland, he having been eent from
Goble to attend school there. Sunday
night he disappeared from Mrs. Carter's
boarding house and has not been seen
since. This morning Murehal Hughes
received a letter fiom the chief of police
telling him to watch out for Edgar
Fowler, who is 13 years old. He was
dressed in a brown mixed suit, with
knee trousers and an ordinary school
boy jacket. He wore black stockings,
tan shoes, a pink shirt, a navy-blue tie
with small white dots. Tho boy was
unusually quiet and well behaved, and
it is not believed possible that he could
have run awoy, although this soems to
be the only tenable theory of his dis
appearance. Tho agitation regarding the improve
ments necessary to a pure supply of
water tho year around in The Dalles,

The Walla Walla Statesman has the
following article concerning a man who
is quite well known in The Dalles:
"Rev. W. H. Sherman is a popular
Baptist preacher at Baker City, but his
fair name was recently besmirched. He
waa mixed up in a horse stealing scrape.
What do you think of that?
"On Sunday, August C, Rev. Sherman
preached nt the Baptist church in this
city. He engaged a rig to go out in the
country, on Sunday, but later informed
the liveryman thit his trip was put off
till Monday.
"Monday Sherman got tho horse and
buggy, and started out. And they
haven't beard since from either the
horso or tho driver. Rev. Sherman was
tracked to Baker City ; but he, with con
summate gall, denied the allegation that
he had the horse. In fact, it is said he
went farther than simple denial, and
called our own sheriff names (good
names, all culled from the scriptures.)
Mr. Kees was only doing his duty in try
ing to catch a hoiso thief, and how was
he to know that a Baptiet preacher
didn't have a hankering after other peo
ple's equine possessions?
"It Is evident that there are two Sher
mans. Though it has not been learned
for what denomination the Shearman
who took the horse holds forth In the
pulpit.

MASONIC BUILDING,
Third Street, between Court and Wash
ton Streets, The Dalles.
The Dalles, formerly called Was-coupum--forty
years ago, wns an infantile
town of scarce 400 inhabitants, when
Rev. W. A. Tenny, the pioneer preacher
of Congregationalism, .stepped ashore
from off the little steamer Hassalo at
the "Gate City" of the Inland Empire
to be. After a few days survey of he
placo and its surroundings he found that
tlio religion of the day, for the majority,
was everybody for himself, Being a
frontier town the revolver and Bowie
knife were the eeat of justice outside of
tlio courts. The roughs were in the
ascendency so far as court justice was
concerned. Need I say that his Satanic
majesty reigned in what today is our
beautiful city, with its church spires
pointing heavenward?
A bravo man was Mr. Tenny to face
such a condition of affairs. Ho saw,
after hia arrival, the awaiting oppor
tuuity for active work in this Godless
field. Tho better class hailed this
herald of the cross with favor. The
Master had called him to "Go! and
preach the gospel!" With this com
mand he came to bring Rood tidings to
tho people. Tact, patience, pereeverence
ami forbearance were requisites he
posseseed. Zsalous work was com
menced at once in the mission on which
he was called. Days, weeks, montha
passed. Evidences of his labor was un
seen. He thought
"Wo do not know It, but there lies
Somewhere, veiled under evening skies,
A garden nil must sometime tee
Bouiewheru lies our Uetluemene."
Mr. Tenny had secured from tho
county court tho privilege of using the
court room for church purposes until
such tiniH as circumstances would allow
u better place. Undernoath the audi
ence room was tho jail, which was j
filled most of tho time with criminals of
various classes. I am told that during
religious worship, vaporingscf profanity
and villianous songs mingled with the
sacred exhortations from tho minister's
desk, and during tho season of prayer
the mocking "aniens" would be heard
from thu inmutej below.
With all these discouraging features,
Mr. Tenny preesed on in the work. Ab
time passed on he concluded that steps
must be taken toward the formation of
a church society. After consulting with
Messrs. E. S. Joslyn and E. S. Pentield
in regard to thu matter, it was decided
to move in that direction at once. This
encouraging conference resulted in Mr.
Tenny making a call for a meeting of all
those interested at the next Sabbath's
morning service. At tho stated time
the uctlng pastor prefaced his Invitation
with 9 prayer, and asked that nil those
onnected with thu church assemble
at hia home on the evening of the 17th
of September (present month) and form
ulate and complete an organization of
the First Congregational church of The
Dalles, The following members ap-
