The business men mid citizens of
Yakima county have practically com
pleted the taek of raising it fund of $1800
as a guarantee to the State Fair Com
mission for the payment of premiums,
apd the annual fair will be held Sep
tember 2-1 to 29, at the fair grounds in
that city.
Chris Schwabe, who has been a faith
ful and trusted employe of tliisoflicu for
the past six years, left yesterday for
Portland where lie has accepted a posi
tion with the Irwin-llodson Co. Chris
was as good a lad as ever bandied a
printer's stick, and the uenisons of the
entire Ciiuonici.k force go with him to
his new Held of labor.
The Democrats of Pennsylvania have
appointed a committoe to investigate
the cause of the heavy falling oh" in the
democratic vote of that state, particu
larly in the cily of Philadelphia. They
have been in session for days and it has
never dawned on their minds that one
word explains the entire dissafection
uud that word is Bryau.
Mr. Cradlebaugh bus unlimited faith
in the future of Hiker and Grant
counties, as it mining district. He says
the Greenhorn country is the greatest
and richest mining country in the world.
He prophesies that before a decade of
years this district will be producing
more gold than the ltand, Alaska, and
all tile gold mines in the world com
bined. "There Is only one John Cradlebaugh
in the world." So say the lady com
positors of Tim CinioNici.K. One of
them tackled John for u piece of chew
ing gum this morning as he cheerily
etitered the composing room. John said
nothing but went out and returned in
an hour with about a peck of the stun"
in a big paper sack, and pouring it out
on an imposing stone said ; "Here, grt,
when you've chewed all this write and
let me know."
Word came hero today from Prluevllle
that Mrs. Slayton, nee Je6sie Welsh,
died very suddenly near that town yes
terday of the grippe. Mrs. Slayton was
well and favorably known hero. She
was a graduate of the public schools of
this city ami for a time followed the
profession of teacher. Her death was
very sudden. She attended church Sun
day, did her ordinary washing and other
work Monday and was cold in death
Wednesday night.
Sheepowners of Morrow county have v
found that It pays to protect their flocks
from the predaceous coyote. With thu IX
price of wool at the top notch, a heavy
demand for mutton and a j earning for
sprlug lamb that will become a vocifer
ous cry aB soon as Unt is over, It be
came a matter of individual interest to
pursue, capture and scalp thu voracious
little beast. The lengths to which self
interest thus strongly backed has gone
in this direction is attested by the fact
that in the neighborhood cf a big sheep
ranch Eome forty miles from Heppner
200 coyotes have been killed during the
winter and, it s added, "the sheep can
now ttray around there of evenings with
out chaperones."
Zac Taylor, a prominent stockman of
Antelope, arrived iiere this morning
from Spoknne after being under the
medical care of Dr. Sutherland of that
place since lust July. Mr. Taylor had
been sulTering from consumption for
nearly a year and a half, with night
sweats and a violent cougb. When lie
left here he was almost a skeleton. He
returns witli a rugged look in his face
and in better health than he lias been
for 10 years. He will leave for home
tomorrow where his many friends will
congratulate him on his recovery.
One of the county road Ecrapers was
brought in from Dul'ur yesterday, and
being equipped this morning with a full
force of men and horses, went out to
finish the improvements on the Cheuo
with road. This work is being done at
the expense of citizens interested in a
good suburban driveway. It is under
the supervision of Joe Robertson which
is all that need be said to make it sure
that it will be wp) done. Mr. Robert
son expects to have the work finished by
Saturday night eo that thoeo desiring a
short Sunday drive may have the
pleasure of a trip over the beet d-iveway
tributary to the city.

J. H. Cradlebaugh, familiarly known
as ' Jack" CradlebtUgh, ex-edltor of4The
Chronicle at the Dalles, arrived in the
city last evening over the Sumpter Val
ley railway from his Golden Eagle group
of mines at Robinsonvillo on his way to
The Dalles on a business trip, says the
B iker City Democrat.
"Jack" spent his boyhood days on
the old Comstock at Virginia City,
Nevada, where he learned the use of a
hammer and drill, and where ho picked
up the journalistic profession on the
old Enterprise, from which office many
writers stepped to world's prominence.
For many years he edited the Chronicle
at The Dailes and finally dropped the
Faber, determined to make or bust in
the mines he was already busted and
the chances were all in his favor. He
had friends who would stay by him and
he made a proposition to them to send
him to the Baker county gold fields.
They agreed and he came. He was
lucky and caugbton at once. He located
the Golden Eigle group of eight base
claims situated In the old districts of
Robinsouville, one-half mile south of
the Don Jaun mine and adj lining the
Phoenix mine. This was two and one
half years ago. Interested with. him are
the well known citizens of The Dalles:
Dan W. French and J. W. French,
bankers; J. S. Fish and X. J. Sinnott,
proprietors of the Umatilla House; T.
J.Seufsrt, cannery man ; Mr. Pease, of
Pease & Mays, merchants; W. H. Biggs,
ex-receiver of the land oflice; W. H.
Wilson and B. S. Huntington, attorneys ;
H. LadehofT, formerly with the Oregon
Lumber company.
Since the location of the Golden Eagle
group steady devolopment work has
been carried on under the directiou of
Mr. Cradlebaugh. Deep sinking is now
going on and a rich pay chute Ins been
struck. As depth is attained the ledge
shows a large per cent of copper and
lead eulphides, increasing in a depth of
80 feet from one per cent to nine per
cent galena and copper. In sinking a
winze 12 feet a vein of 5,l. feel in width
has been cut that works in the mill
free $270 to the ton, with concentrates
averaging 5 per cent wortli over $800.
Mr. Cradlebaugh says his going to
Robineonville was the luckiest turn he
ever made in Ii is life, and if he don't
leave the camp a millionaire there is no
use in a man having a golden opportunity-
Congregational Church Concert.
The concert at the Congregational
church last night was one; of the most
delightful musical treats the people of
The Dalles ever listened to. This is the
sober judgment of one who makes no
high pretentions to mueical culture but
who has sufficient ear and taste for
inueic to know when he is pleased. It
is the judgment, too, of all the attend
ants with whom we have come in con
tact. The little church was thronged to the
doors. The audience were more than
pleased; they were delighted, and ex
pressed their delight in hearty rounds
of applause and good-natured insistence
that nearly every selection Eiiould be
encored. The ensemble of the choruses
was magnificent, the voices blending
into one delightful strain of harmony
and melody. The ladies' chorus if one
may distinguish where all wa surpass
ingly good and "Oh Ye Tears," by
Miss dishing and a irale quartet, were
each worth more than the cost of ad
mission. If a traveling company had

given as good an entertainment there
are hundrels of Dilles people who would
have thought it cheap at twice the
pries.
It ii pleasing to know that the concert
was a financial success even beyond tho
expectation of its promoters, and that
something like $85 have' been added to
the organ fund of the church. But the
Chronicle suggests that the conceit be
repeated. There are hundreds of people
in The Dalles who, when they find out
what they have missed, will throng
every available space in the house if it
be repeated and the price of admission
reduced, say, to 25 cents.

point of operation. The council asked
Mr. Mann what proposition he had to
make and were answered that he had
uone, and thus the matter ended. Just
