Further particulars concerning the
funeral of Mrs. M. J. Uee.ley were con
tained iu u letter received by C. .1.
Crandall this morning. They are, how-
evur, as yot conditional, and tho friends
of the deceased who desire to attend will
themselves regarding the eubjeet. Mrs.
1'hillipe, who hits just returned from
San Francisco, snys trie abundance of
trimming which characterized the win
ter hats, is if possible outdone by tlml
of this fceaeon's styles, tucking, pulling
and flowers without number being in
evidence; feat tiers, however, are not in
cluded. Tho pastel, or more delicnte
fur I shades of Ir.vtnder, cerise, etc., prevail,
while the neopohtau liraids of other days
are iu voguu. Mrs. Phillips ordered an
immense stock of pattern, as well as
other bins, and is now repapuring and
lilting up her store preparatory to their
arrival.
It would bo extremely amusing were
no doubt bo informed concerning the j it not so disgusting, to hear the number

Simpson that it should take place Mon

be the hour (or the obsequies.

A plan is on foot to give the people of
The Dalles a splendid road for driving,
by repairing the river road, removing
all rocks; etc., down past Anderson's
place connecting with the Ohenowith
road at the bridge. The latter will be
extended In a direct line from the comer
beyond the Catholic cemetery, joining
the lower road at Snipes' place. Sub
icriptioni were solicited from those
owning driving horses yesterday, and it
of smallpox stories that are being circu
lated about the city. A person can hear
anything and everything excepting tho
truth. While, there are but two cases
iu tho city Mrs. Mullikau aud her
daughter mid neither of them sick
enough to take to their bed, nor to need
the services of a physician, tho town
wns In an uproar this morning and sev
eral cases were reported, among them
thu Smiley family, on upper Court
street. We have taken paius to investi
gate the matter, and us a matter of fact,
there is not a word of truth iu it. None
of the family are sick, except that one
little boy had a sore throat, which is all
right today. And yet this report wits
told as unquestionably the truth. The
marshal called uta house today to in
vestigate a report- that the lady hud the
smallpox and fortunately for him, found
she was down town, though he was but
doing his duty. Such stories are bound
to be rife, and the only way to do is to
discredit them until they are proven.

In yesterday's itene we epoko of the
' imposition of J. M. Russell to put in a
ienouring mill at Tiie Dalles nnd that the
l f ? l.i - r . I.
iiiHiiuiHCiuricB cummmeo ui iiiu vyuur
morcial club would place the matter be
fore tlio board of directors at a meeting
last night. Yesterday afternoon a meet
ing was held, and after a diecussion of
tho subject pro and con, a committee,
consisting of Messrs. Whealdon, Pease
and Williams, was appointed to inter
view the citizens and ascertain their
opinion concerning the proposition of
tho city taking $25,000 worth of first
mortgage bonds payable in ten years at
six per cent.
Should they determine that our people
are favorable to accepting Mr. Russell's
proposition, he assuming the remaining
$15,000 bonds, definite airangementa
will be made at once to put in the mill
this summer.
A meeting of the citizens has been
called at the club tonight to discuss th
question, and a large number shoutd b
present.
Mr. Kussell says he has watched Tho
Dalles for some time and is assured it
would bo a most profitable move. Last
year a million and a half pounds of wool
were sent to Pendleton from here for
scouring, while a large amount was
shipped to San Francisco. This would
all be scoured at home, and with a
woolen mill, which would no doubt fol
low iu its wake, the benefit could not be
estimated. ISesides, it is thought now
that water facilities are to be afforded
much wool from the upper country will
be brought here.
If ever The Dalles woke up, let it do
bo now, and let us not have it said that
this oiler also fell through.

The statements made by the Baker
City papers concerning the prevalence
of smallpox there, are somewhat con
flicting, which probably arises from the
fact that the diseaee is not of a malig
nant type and therefore the people of
that city do not deem it necessary to
be very guarded. We still reiterate the
statement that too much precaution
cannot be taken, be the type what it
may. The following from two of the
Buker paperB do not exnetly gibe :
"The statement made by the FaEtOre
gonian'B reliable (?) Informant that three
deaths from smalipox occurred in Baker
City last week or any other week is em
phatically untrue and if- he made the
personal investigation he claims ho did,
then he knows himself that his state
merit is false. There is no disposition
on the part of the press of Baker City to
conceal the facts and it lias been pub
lished time and again that there were
cases iu Baker City but not of a virulent
form. The situation Is certainly un
pleasant but there does not seem to be
occasion for alarm, aud business in all
lines continues without hindrance.
Democrat.
"We have denied the libelous small
pox accusation, now we deny another
and more serious charge, that there are
thiee young men in Baker City who are
afraid to go alone to visit any of our
ladies, and that two always go along to
chaperone the third. If this falsehood
gains circulation, the mountaineers will
come in witli their guns. Republican."
Deniily Jerii)H In Skirt.
While most people admire the pre
vailing style of trailing skirts in the
inception room, there has been a con
tinued crusade auaiust them being
attached to street costumes. Becoming
much concerned over the hygienic viewol
the question, Dr. MeKechnie, of Seattle,
has been investigating the matter, and
iu answer to an inquiry propounded to
a New York bacteriologist, received the
following:
"Iu the hem of a woman's skirt which
I have just been examining, I found
germs of pneumonia, diphtheria, typhoid
fever, scarlet fever, tuberculosis and
consumption, any one of which would
bu enough, if inhaled, to cause a person
to be alllicted with one of the deadly
diseases mentioned."
Dr. MeKechnie has since been con
ducting investigations as to thu condi
tions in Seattle.
"Half the women who walk down on
a shopping tour go home with the germs
of sutuu deadly disease in their skirts,"
he exclaimed. "I did not know ttiis
could be so serious, or had not thought
much about it, rather, until I saw the
result of this analysis; but since then I
have been looking into the tiny germs
that tire found on the sidewalks, and
taking some observations from one of
the prominent corners, where women
puss whenever they come down town."
