Business men of The Dalles have a
great advantage over those of places

it requires to transact business with

o'clock Chas. Stephens left for Portland,
.ordered a lot of goods, returned on the
0:30 evening train and this morning the
good are in ills store.
In speaking of the case against Chas.
Prather a few days since, the Chkonici.e
mentioned that the plaiutifT. L. Fields,
had been charged with drunkenness.
In justice to the young man, his friends
request that we mention the fact that
the charge was not proven aud lie has
always been a young man of steady

Agricultural college at Pullman.
Ernest Jensen came up from Astoria

16 uot as much grain being shipped as a

brought the largest wheat cargo ever
shipped outof The Dalles by water. The
cargo consisted of 2858 packs or about
5710 bushels. This Is a record-breaking
load, Greater quantities have come to
Portland from The Dalles by rail, but
for water shipments, the amount carried
by the Regulator takes the lead. Be
sides the grain the boat had on board an
assortment of other freight. The boats
lrom the upper Columbia are coming in
crowded with passengers and freight
every day and business can fairly be
said to be booming. Telegram
Fossil is now connected with the out
side world by telephone, the Oregon Tel
ephone Company having completed the
brancli liue Wednesday, Beginning at
Arlington, the new line runs across the
plateau lands to Olex, on Rock creek,
thence to Condon and Mayville. The
distauce to Fossil is sixty-one miles and
the lino is constructed of aluminum
wire. The first meseage was sent that
morning by Jas.S. Stewart, of the Fossil
Journal, uIbo president of the Oregon
Press Association, to Albert Tozier, sec
retary, at Portland. Mr. Stewarf in
quired after matters in South Africa.
He ie a Scotchman by birth, and has
several relatives in the British army
now making it interesting down there.
The second message was from Mr. Tozier
who asked concerning the appointment
ol delegates to the next convention of
the National Editorial Association,
which meets in New Orleans m Feb
ruary next.
When wo visit the Hist End, with the
experience of Marion county farmers
fresh in our minds and the hies which
they sustained in the recent burning of
the mill at Salem, we are led to con
template what a terrible loss our farmers
would meet with were fire to take in
either of the uarhouecs here, where,
when the season is over, will bo stored,
at u rough estimute, about 300,000
bushels of wheat; wheat which the ware
houses themselves are not responsible
for in case of fire, but would be a loss to
the farmers alone. Upon inquiry, wo
learn that all the wtieat bought by them
is insured within twcnly-four hours of
the time it is taken in. Would it not
bo well for the owners of wheat stored
therein to protect themselves by follow
ing the example of the warehouse
owners. .We understand the latter have
made arrangements to insure them at a
low rate, and make this suggestion tiiat
our farmers may think it over.
We havo never had any particular ad
miration for or love of the typical "new
woman", but at the same time have
given her credit for being some what
more attractive thun Pease & Mays evi
dently consider her. That firm has
always been very popular with the ladies ;
but we much fear are jeopardizing their
laurels when they place that much
dreaded, nieasley, "pie-faced" wooden
man in their show window to represent
any species of the feminine sex, If there
Is any one thing in the town which lias
been the terror of all the ladies since the
time he occupied a conspicuous placu in
front of John Hertz' clothing store, and
made them all jump as he loomed up in
all his homeliness, it Is that image. The
towels are all light and the idea of ad
vertising them a novel one; but in be
half of the ladles (young and old) we
would beseech the firm to let one of Its
good looking clerka (male or female, the
former preferred) do that washing.

DROPPED DEAD.
Apoplexy Causes the Death of James
iilnnell This Morning.
James Ilinnell, who drove into The
Dalles this morning at 11 o'clock, bring
ing a load of wheat from his farm on
High Prairie, near Hartland, and who
was apparently in the best of health a3
he stopped at Moody's warehouse
and unloaded the wheat, now lies a
corpse at the undertaking rooms of
Crandall & Burget.
After disposing of his wiieat, he
stopped to talk to W. H. Moody in the
east warehouse, and suddenly reeling, as
if dizzy, fell to the floor. Mr. Moody
and the workmen at once began doing
all they could to bring him to and car
ried him to the back of the room, when
a physician was at once sent for, Dr.
Hudson arriving soon after, but too late,
for his heart seemed to cease beating the
moment he fell. His remains were
removed to the undertaking rooms,
where an examination was made and
the verdict was apoplexy. The coroner
was sent for, but did not deem an in
quest necessary.

Flyer last evening and was to return home

number of business men who know him
here, speak in the highest terms of him,
He was strictly honest. Ho leaves two

Hunt mid Steamer Knee,
There was a racu botween the Inland

paying a fair average price for the boxes,
some of which were unique and quite
pretty. 18.35 was netted.
The establishing of -libraries in our
public schools is a move in the right
direction, mid Mita Mabel ltiddell, the
teacher, is to be highly commended
