The river stood ntiW.l font at 8 o'clock this morning, a rise of two-tenths since the same hour yesterday morning. Forecast Ofllolal E. A. Heals telegraphed, from Portland this morning that the river will fall slowly durimr tho next -18 to 7?, hours. The locks were not closed today, as announced on a bulletin board, und the Regulator will make her through trip as usual. The Antelope Republican says Frank Splcer, of that country, has a pet ewe which sheared last year eighteen pounds ot wool. She also had two lambs within eleven months, of which the oldest one sheared twenty pounds and the other one, a February lamb, sheared eight pounds and the mother twelve pounds. The summary la fifty-eight pounds of wool from one ewe and her offspring within one year. The sheep is only a common Merino, arid the Republican would like to know who can beat tliis record. The Free MethodiBt camp meeting is now in progress with increased interest. The doctrine presented iB of the John Wesley stamp, which though old, seems new to the people. But the truth of the Bible, as presented by God's servants, is taking hold of the people aud we trust will work out to the salvation of many souls. All are invited to attend preach ing every niuht at 8 p. in. ; also at 2:30 p. m. of each day. The weather behaved its meanest all the time the Ohio visitors were in The DalleB, and when the party was up at Celilo and vicinity the wind blew a hur ricane, lifting great cloudB of sand and dust aud pelting them mercilessly in every face that dared to expose itself. If the visitors should judge the rest ot the Inland Empire by the sample they had at Celilo, they can hardly be blamed if they conclude that Celilo isn't cer tainly the original garden of Eden. The hulk of the steamer Billings (bat ed oil' the rocks below Blalocks since the nee in the river and was captured by parties at Hufus. The capture is a val uable one. Although all the machinery was taken out months ago, there is a huge amount of coal on board ; and as the boat is over '-'00 feet long, an im mense quantity of building material can be obtained from the wreck. The boat, while a total wreck, could not sink ow ing to the vast size and extremely light draft. The wreck was steered into an eddy near the Collield place, on tho Washington sidf, and when tho river falls the boat will be on dry land. Mr. Filloon.tho agent of tho White Collar line at this place, announces that the Bailey Gatzert will suspend opera tions on the Dalles-Portland run till tho river falls. This conclusion was arrived tit when it was supposed tho locks would bo closed Monday; but tho looks, how ever, were not closed und may not be closed for some little time, so tho man agement at Portland telegraphed their agent, Mr. Filloon, this morning that tho boat would resume her daily trips between hero and Portland Thursday. The Bailey Gatzert Iiub been char tered to take the Ohio congressional del legation to Astoria on the return of the party to Portland. From a telegram received this morn ing f'Oin Portland it is learned that Representative M. A. Moody is very much disappointed becaiiBe, through a mere oversight, doubtless, he was not apprised in time of the hour of the de parture of the Ohio congressional party for The Dalles, aud was therefore un able to accompany them. Mr. Moody's time was biuily occupied all day yester day entertaining Congressmen Foes and Dayton, two members of the house naval committee, aud this morning, when he made inquiry as to the time of the departure of the Ohio party for The Dalles, he was much surprised and dis appointed to learn that they were already on the way. Mr. Moody will, however, meet the party on their return to Portland, and will accompany them tomorrow on their trip to Astoria. "The affectionate caresses our 'loidy frieds,' " as Chimmie Fadden would say, bestow on their ehockingly dense pugs, which if they know anything, effectually refrain from betraying it, has always been looked upon by men with intense disfavor, not to say disgust," said Professor C. I. Norris, of Norris it Rowe's Big Trained Animal Shows. If the women were not too prejudiced in the matter to look at it reasonably, they might perceive the error of their ways by. looking in at NorriB & Rowe's Big Trained Animal shows, which will ex hibit in this city under their enormous waterproof tents, which will be located corner of Second and Madison streets Saturday next. After twilight last night as a young lady of this city was on her way home from a friend's house and was walking east on Fourth street, not far from the Catholic church, she struck against a wire that had been stretched across the street and was thrown violently to the ground, sustaining a severe wrench in tho neck and painful bruises in other parts of the body. This stretching of wires across the sidewalks of nights is said to be considered "fun" among the vounger generation of thoughtless toughs, but the shock received by the young lady last night would have proved a serious affair had it happened to an elderly person. Should the authorities discover who the authors of this kind of fun are they will bo justified in punish ing them to the full extent of the law. Among tho ancient Spartans when youths were detected in delinquencies of this kind it was the parents who received the punishment. An application of Spartan justice to some Dalles parents would have a salutory effect. Ililhlut-K .Men, Firemen, Attention!

The Ohio and Indiana congressional party that have been touring the Pacific coast, arrived hero on a special train at 11:23 this forenoon. An they arrived somewhat before they were expected, ecarcely half a dozen of the members of the reception committee appointed by the Commercial Club were present to meet them. A matter of ten minutes or so rectified the mistake and the visitors were ushered into the spacious dining room of the Umatilla House, where short addresses of welcome were de livered by N. Whealdon, Gov. T. T. Geer and Congressman T., H. Tongue. These were eloquently responded to by Congressman E. Tompkins, of Ohio, who made special reference to the neces sity for the opening of the Columbia river to navigation, and virtually pledged himself to the earnest support of that project by his vote and voice in congress. After lunchoon and at a few minutes before 1 o'clock the party again boarded the cars and were taken up the riyer as far as Celilo. On their return the train stopped for a time at the East End while the party made a tour through the warehouses. Accompanying the party from Port land were Governor T. T. Geer, Senator Joseph Simon, Congressman T. H. Tongue, Hon. John Barrett, Mayor H. S. Rowe, Henry Hahn, Col. James Jackson, John H. Hall, Judge Charles H. Carey, Paul F. Mohr and Superin tendent J. P. O'Brien, of the O. R. & N Co. The party was accompanied from here to Celilo and return by a large delega tion from the committee appointed by the Commercial Club and by a number of other private citizens of both Bexes. raralyzetl tho Court, I Bears the Signature of Subscribe for Tun Ohuonioms, A case of common drunk came before the police court of Pendleton today, The case, however, was not of common words, for the greatest conglomeration of phraseology wus fired at the judge that ever came from the lips of an officer. The luckless fellow was not yet over his intoxication. So the officer, presenting him to the court, (.he had apparently been reading the New York Sun, for the same combination of words appeared recently in that newspaper) said of the culprit : "Your honor, this man iB intoxicated. He is drnnk, inebriated, tipsy, full, load ed, jagged, fuddled, tight, top-heavy, slewed, half-shot, half-gone, overgone, overtaken, primed, alHicted, elevated, exhilarated, genial, happy, mellow, corned, beery, winy, groggy, boozy, soaked, chock-a-block, lushy, muggy, boryeyed, muddled, jiggered, foggy, hazy, dizzy, Btuuned, dazed, moory, dopy, ossified, petrified, paralyzed.

"He is half-seas over, three sheets in, the wind, on his beam ends under tho influence of tho weather, over the bay, In the clouds, iu his cups, in his pots, oil' his trolley, oil' his nut, on a drunk, on a spree, on a bender, on a racket, on a tear, on the rau-tan, or the ree-raw, he is feeling his oats, ho is full of mountain dew, full of dope, full of forty-rod booze, full of Jersey lightning, full of tangle foot, full of hug juice, he is us full us a tick, full as a goat, full as a bedbug, he is as drunk as a lord, drunk as a boiled owl, drunk as a fiddler's bitch, drunk us David's sow, ho Is weak (wabbly) on his pins, all mops and brooms, und about to cast up his accounts," And at last accounts tho court was running yet.

The wife of a merchant in Yonkers was moved to attempt safe-breaking by a desire to speculate. Her husband is in Europe. In his safe were 5C0 shares of Northern Pacific. The Wall street mau who had sold them to him rushed to the wife and offered her $SO,000 for the bunch, which represented a profit o $10,000. "But 1 don't know the combination of the safe," expostulated tho wife in an swer to tho Wall street man's frantic ap peal for stock. "Well, blow it open, send for profes sional cracksmen; hire a safe expert. I'll pay any mon iflOOO to gut tho safo open." The wife protested, but tho Wall street man finally induced her to con sent to the burglary and he got the stock. The wife spent $15 cabling newa of the transaction to her husband and got this reply : "Good; uive him the safe, too." WM. MICHELL, Undertaker and Embalmer Cor. Third and Washington Sts.
