j was his own lawyer and, as usual, bad a
! fool for a client.
S. J. Newsome, of Prineville, was in
town today on his way home from Port
land, where he placed two sons, one in
the law school and the other in the med
ical school of the University of Oregon.
Mr. Newsome came to The Dalles in
1S51 and remembers many a stirring
incident of those parly days. During a
Bhorf call at Tm: Chkoxici.e office ..Mr.
Newsome eaid "I remember as if it
happened yesterday it was in the early
'008, I think I was in that little turn-bled-down
building acro's the alley
north of here. It was then a barber,
shop. A etrauger, whom I afterwards
found to be a German not long in thu
country, came into the shop and pick
ing up a razor, ami before any one could
prevent him, drew ttie blade across his
throat and almost severed Iiib head from
hie body. The razor dropped from his
hand, his head fell forward and in this
attitude he staggered to the sidewalk
and dropped dead not more than ten
feet from this door." Wo shall never
look at that old tumbled-down shack
that old man Pago used eo long for a
carpenter shop and sleeping room, with
out thinking of that Dutchman that was
fool enough to cut his own throat.
The patronp of the Vogt opera house
have a genuine trip to Chinatown
Wednesday evening, Oct. 10th. Chas.
E. Ulaney's elaborate scenic production
of tho "King of the Opium King" is
equal to a visit to the famous China
town, of Francisco. The atmosphere of
tho play and the locality of its action
are faithfully portrayed. The produc
tion is a novelty, and that, first of all,
commends it. It is the only production
on the road which gives decidedly inter
esting pictures of Chinatown. The first
act shows tho bay of San Francisco with
the golden gate in the distance, with the
revenue cutter in hot pursuit of the
smugglers' yacht. The second act is a
scene in the Chinese quarter under
ground, and show the interior of an
opium joint and the eliVcts of tho deadly
ifrug. The third act opens with a street
scene In Chinatown. The dark change
follows and tho lights are turned on a
market in tho heart of Chinatown on
the celebration of Chinese new year, the
scene being beautifully illuminated and
decorated with lanterns, flags, etc. In
this act the wonderful acrobatic feat of
thu Cliiueso gymnasts takes place.
Forming a human tower, they rescue
the heroine from the balcony of u Chi
nese restaurant, carry her acrosa the
stage and deposit her safely upon a bal
cony on the opposite side.

WATER COMMISSIONERS MEET.
Water Main to lie Laid Across .Mill
CreekOthor Uuslness.
The regular monthly meoting of The
Dalles water commissioners was held
last night in the recorder's office. Those
present were A. R. Thompson, S. Bol
ton, Hans Hauson, T. J. SeulortAa.
gust Buchler and Ed. Phirman. I T. J.
Seofeit presided. After the usual rou
tine business, Mr. Cro3en, to whom had
L.'en referred the petition of Carl Burch
torf and others for a main to be extend
ed from the John Marden residence on
Fo.irth street, acroes Mill creek to the
property of Jacob Wettle, reported that
it would require about 800 feet of two-
inch pipe, which ho had on hand ; that
the pipe could be laid at a cost of about
$100, and that the revenue to Iw derived
from water rent on such main would
well lepay the outlay. On motion of
Commissioner Thompson, the superin
tendent was instructed to lay said main.
Tins will bo a great convenience to the
residents west of Mill cieek bridge, as
they have hitherto had to carry water
for domestic purposes from Mill creek.
It is said that the erection of two new
residences in that neighborhood has
been awaiting tho favorable action of
tiie board regarding tills main. It is
expected that the main will be laid and
ready for use in about a couple of weeks
from now.
On motion of Commissioner Phirman,
the superintendent was directed to lay a
four-inch main on Washington street to
connect the two-inch main on Fifth
street wltii the four-inch main in thu
alley south of Fifth.

Fire nt lianlkn.
At about 8 o'clock this morning a fire
occurred at Sluniko that burned to
the ground tho largest store in tho
town, that of Pease it Maya and Fred
Houghton's drug store. The buildings
destroyed were of corrugated iron and
were in a block. The storo of Pease &
Mays was 50x100 feet. The drug store
was 25x75 and there was an empty store
adjoining of the same size. Theee two
belonged to Mrs. Lord, of this city. Y"
The buildings are a total loss. From
the drug store nothing was saved but a
show -case and contents. Half to two
thitds nf tho dry goods in the Pease &
Mays storo were saved. All else wont
up in smoke. The building and store
goods were insured.
Dr. Ray hogan, who was on his way
hirj when the 11 ro started, and first
learned of it on his arrival, had his
oflice and rooms in the building and
lost ids instruments and all bis cloth
