Twelve young ladles of our city have
banded themselves together in asocial

Physicians are discovering that the
old time open fire had much to do with
the health of our grandmothers and that
steam heat and furnace heat are re
sponsible for many ailments. Steam
heat especially has a way of gradually
increasing so that any one who is used
to a steam heated room becomes an easy
victim to colds and all the long string
of ailments to 'which a cold is the in
troduction. An open fire is a sort of
inspiration in itself, and since it draws
in the out-of-door oxygen through all
the cracks and crannies it helps to
purify the air in the room while it hunts
it.
The caso of Holding Johnson, who
was arrested in this city for having
counterfeit nickels in his possession and
working the slot machines, came up in
Judge Bellinger's court Tuesday and he
was sentenced to one year in the peni
tentiary and also fined $60. He claimed
-that the epurious coins had been put in
his pocket while he was drunk, and tbat
he was still under tho influence of
liquor when he fed them to the ma
chines, and his council set up in his de
fense that putting tho counterfeit coins
in machines was not passing them. The
jury after being out a short time, re
turned a verdict of guilty, and recom
mended tho prisoner to the mercy of the
court..
'"'Last night A. G. Long, agent for tho
chemical engine, was in tho city and
met with tho committee, composed of
Messrs. Moore, McArthur, Saltmarshe
and Glenn, who had been appointed by
tho board of fire delegates and au
thorized to tako in charge the matter of
the improvements in the fire depart
ment apparatus. A contract was entered
into with him to furnish the city with a
100-gallon chemical hand engine, and
a late improved Aerial truck and ladder.
The latter is Baid to be the most com
plete pnd perfect arrangement made,
the ladder being high enough to reach
to the top of the highest buiiding in the
city, and so constructed as to be used in
any position, holding its own weight and
not requiring to be placed against any
building or other support.
We have all heard tho expression
often "She can put her clothes in my
valise," but if a certain bride of recent
date had depended upon the groom's
valiBe in which to pack her clothes, they
must needs have stayed in the wardrobe,
for when he reached his destination and
was ready to put on biB cuffs, gloves,
and other minor articles of the "conven
tional" wedding outfit, he found the
valise containing them was minus; as
were nlsf the beautiful flowers he was
carrying to his bride. The marriage,
however, proceeded and in the mean
time an Indian rode into the city and
attempted to sell a valise to a certain
storekeeper. Recognizing the property
of his friend, the article was bought and
will be returned to its owner. So that
the newly married couple need not start
on the journey of life minus a valise.
While we do not believe in becoming
unduly alarmed, nor as the saying is,
shaking hands with the devil before he
!b met; yet it does seem that The Dalles
people are just n little too passive over
the smallpox scare throughout ttie state.
With several cases at Baker City and
other places east of us, and many at
Salem as well as other places south,
would it not be well for us to realize
that we ore on the immediate danger
line and use some precaution. So far
as we can learn few have resorted to
vaccination. Many are oppoeed to com
pulsory vaccination in the school, and
in city schools, where a wholesale busi
ness is made of il, we confess there iB
much danger of harm resulting ; but it;
doeB seem as if it should be given more
attention in the families ol our city and
the children vaccinated. By this means
much excitement and alarm would be
prevented were a case to bo dropped
down here or be discovered in cur
midst.
"Over the stars there is a rest" is a
beautiful sentiment; but a number of
our citizens have had little rest over the
shooting meteors which have failed to
shoot for two nights now. Some of our
most peaceful residents felt like shooting
a "star" night clerk In one of our hotels
during the small hours this,, morning.
Two young men who were out on the
hotel veranda at an early hour reciting
"twinkle, twinkle, little star," etc.,
effught a glimpse of the north star, over
which the clouds were chasing each other
making it look ub if it were out shooting,
and quickly hurrying to tho oflico in
formed the clerk Fen it would take place.
Hastening to the 'phone he quickly
called up about a dozen different families,
whom he had promised to inform.
Rubbing their eyes, each one in turn
jumped out and paraded to the window
only to have the man in the moon look
down as if to say "rubber! rubber!" and
not a star in Eight. One real estate agent
declared ho had been done "dirt"; the
hotel proprietor was so star-tied that he
1b out looking for a new clerk ; the said
clerk has not been out of bed today, and
the two young men took the stage and
are starring it by this time.

AFTER MANY DAYS.
A Move nn Foot to Greatly llrneflt Our
City I.nt Her Move, Not
Crnwl Nor Stop.
After months, yes yenrs of waiting
and what has proven almost suicidal de
lay on the part of Tho Dalles in regard
to its future welfare, a scheme is now
on foot which is just "it" and etrikes at
tho very core of the situation. Situated
as it is, with everything in its favor, the
residents of this city have grown so ac
customed to having trade drop at their
very feet, that they havo scarcely rea
lized that anything would intervene be
tween them and prosperity. However,
after a railroad had been put in and
other means employed, which were sap
ping its very life blood, our citizens be
gan to wake up and' look about to see
what might be done, and although lnte
it is not yet too late to counteract the
evil.
The very tiling which the newspapers
have been agitating for eo long is now
assuming proportions which look en
couraging and a largo number of our
leading men are deeply interested in a
scheme for a railroad into the interior.
A subscription' paper is being circulated
and In fifteen minutes yesterdav $400
were raised for a preliminary survey,
and the remainder is coming fast. The
idea is to test the feasibility of such n
move, nnd although it is not yet assured,
it is a move a long way in the right di
rection, and we trust will bo ere long
not a scheme but a reality.
The idea is to build by the way of the
Des Chutes river to the mouth of Trout
creek ; up Trout ten miles to the junction
of Trout and Hay creeks, and finally on
to Prineyille ; a branch also to be run
into Sherman county, and we under
stand tho people of that county are of
fering a good bonus to that end. By
these means. Lakeand Klamath counties
w:ll be tributary to The Dalles, and we
believe it is not too much to predict that
if the road is a go it will finally be ex
tended into California and made a
through line.
While survey of course has not been
made, much investigation has been go
ing on and it is thought by those who
are in a position to know, that it is en
tirely feasible, and will be what might
be termed inexpensive, since there
would hh little rock work. The grade
also would not be more than one percent
or fifty feet to the mile, the highest ele
vation being between here and the free
bridge on the bench opposite the mouth
of Des Chutes, which is 500 feet above
the river. Men who have lookpd into
the matter give us their opinion that
difficulty will be encountered in but one
or two places.
The benefit to The Dalles can be seen
at a glance. While controlling all the
trade which has heretofore been ours, it
will open up to us a country we now
have no claim on, and no transportation
company can compete with such a line,
for the route it would take having fo
many advantages over any other, caukl
not fail to control the trade of the
country through which it passes.
This may sound like a fairv tale to
those who havo grown skeptical ; too
good to he true. But it certiinly has
the right ring to it, anil tho right men
at the helm. Beside, it must be true,
for it means too much to The Dalles to
be otherwise. It may bo said that the
papers havo been crying "Wolf! Wolf!"
when there was none at hand ; but those
who have any eyes must see that tho
wolf is at our very fold, and this is our
only nieuna of escape. Wo therefore
call upon our people to shoulder onus
nnd push this scheme for all it is worth,
and its worth Is incalculable.
