Get ready for a good, hearty laugh
when you read the following which we
i clip from the Astoria News. "Afters
visit to The Dalies, Charles VerBchuren,
painter, thinks Astoria the best
residence place in Oregon. He states
that the heat is terrible in the up-river
town, and that it would be unbearable
were it not for fhe fact that the place is
60 clean."
Bruce JohnBtou, who is attending!
school at Stockton, California, writes
hie. grandfather, If. B, Hood, that he has
obtained employment in the leading
morpmg paper of the town and while
he attends Bchool daily he supports him
self by working in the newspaper office
fromL'::!0 in the morning to 5. A boy
like that is bound to make his mark in
tbe world. Tbe only way to keep him
down is to kill him.
The matinee yesterday afternoon and
eutertainment in the evening delighted
everybody that was present at either.
The flag drill and cake walk were sur
prisingly good ; the singing was excel

seen in The Dalles. The attendance was
not nearly equal to tbe character of the
entertainment, jet it is gratifying t o
learn that the receipts of the matinee
met the expenses of both entertain
ments leaving those of the evening us
net profit.

From the report given to Mr. John A.
Moore, by Judge Brink ot Prineville, of
Brink came to Shaniko with the corpse
of the dead man, and while there the
judge told Mr. Moore that his eon had
traded, a short time before his death,
for hammerless Marlin rifle
that only
a few minutes before bis death he was
chatting pleasantly with a number of
persons in a barber's shop adjoining hiB
store ; that he stepped out of the barber's
shop after making some pleasant re
mark, and that two or three minutes
afterward the shot was heard that ended
his life. On the floor where Moore was
found in the sgony of death were found
some rags that had been used in clean
ing the rifle. The ball bad entered
Moore's breast, and passing through his
body bad lodged in the plaster of the
wall. The remains passed through here
yesterday and were taken to Corvallis,
where they will be interred Sunday.
"One of the most amusing contests I j
ever saw in my life happened at my
place the other day," said a White Sal
root) rancher to a ChBONICM man. "It I
was between a blue racer snake, about
eleven inches long, and a half-grown
Plymouth Rock cockerel. My attention I
was called to the contest by the un-1
! natural noise aud antics of the cockerel. 1
In a moment he lay stretched ou the
ground as if dead, aud the next moment
I could see the racer unwind about aj
third of its thin body from the neck of
chicken, while the other two-thirds,
craw led out of its mouth. In less than'
a minute, and before the snake had
time to get out of the way, the cockerel
WM on his feet and, grasping the snake
bv the tail, again swallowed nearly two
thirds ot its length, when quick as a
wink the snake wound itself around the
lebioken'l neck, and shutting off its wind
again compelled it to drop to the earth
as if stone dead. No sooner was the '
chicken stretched out and still than the
' snake unwound itself and crawled out
of the chicken's mouth. This perform- i
; ance was repeated three times when the
i chicken cocked its head on one side,
; took a disgusted but amusing look at
1 the little rarer and, apparently conclud- j
. ing that he was too tough a customer
j for further attack, abandoned the con
I test and went his way."

Rachel A. Moore, wife of John W.
Moore of this city, died suddenly at her
home, at about H:30 o'clock this morn
ing, of heart failure. The circumstances
connected with Mrs. Moore's death are
very sad. Her son, M. A. Moore, of
Prineville, accidentally shot himself to
death last Tuesday. Yesterday after
noon the afflicted mother and her hus
band returned home after having ac
companied the remains of their dead
' son trom Shaniko to The Dalles while
j they were on their way to Portland for
1 cremation. As there was some doubt
i whether the body would be cremated or ;
I lkM M , a 1 1 1 a f,,r intarnant
inrii ii v .i i. i i .. i i ........... ,
! Mr. and Mrs. Moore dropped off the
i train at this point to await further ad
vices.
When the afflicted couple went to bed
last night everything was ready for their
trip below to attend whatever disposi
tion might be made of the remains of
their son. Shortly after midnight Mrs.
Moore awakened her husband and com
plained of a severe pain n the region of
the heart. Some neighboring women
were called in and Dr. Logan was hastily
summoned, hut before the doctor's
arrival she had quietly passed away.
There is hardly room for doubt that the
lady's grief over her son's death precipi
tated her death.
Rachel A. Robnett, the maiden name
of Mrs. Moore, was born in Boone
county, Missouri, in 1882, sixty-nine
years ago. She crossed the plains with
her parents in 1851 , and settled on the
Calapooia, above Rrownsvile. She was
married to John W. Moore, a pioneer of
1849. on the loth day of February, 1852,
and die and her husband made their
home in the Forks of the Santiam for
Suiiie thirty-five years, till about four
teen years ago when they moved to
Kasterii Oregom, making their home
since then about half the time in Sher-
man county and half in The Dalles,
i The deceased was a member of the M.
K. churcti for titty years.
I Mrs. Moore leaves an aged husband,
two daughters. Mrs. V. C. Brock, of I
Wasco, and Mrs. B. N. Wilkins, of Cor -
vallis, and one son, John W.Moore of
Shasta county, California. These out of
a familv of eight children.
The remains will leave here on the
early morning train for Corvallis when
mother and eon will be laid side by side
next Sunday, Mr. Moore having received
word from the wife of bis dead son this
morning that interment had been de
cided upon instead of cremation.

The following is clipped from a
marked copy of a Washington, D. C,
paper that some one was good enough to
send to Tiik Cmkonki.. It is from an
article on the climate and resources ot
Oregon and Washington, and savors much
of the rhetoric of Col. Pat Donan:
"During the presidential campaign of
185I2, United States Senator Charles J.
i Faulkuer, of West Virginia, came to the
Pacific Northwest on a stumping tour.
One ot the places on his speechifying
programme was Walla Walla and during
his brief visit, H. S. Blandford and a
few other wide awake citizens decided to
give him a little dinner. With the
! frankness of western hospitality , they
risked him to name his favorite dishes,
i He replied: 'Gentlemen, I have never
yet seen a day when 1 couldn t eat a
good baked potato, and a piece of fat
and tender roast mutton.' That was
enough for the Walla Wallans, w ho com-
bined humor and public spirit with a
generous inclination to 'welcome the
coming, speed the going, guest,' They
determined to give him an object lesson
in Columbia valley potato lore. The
dioner followed his speech in the even
log, There were plates on the table fur
Dint guests, ami the entertainers, at the ;
proper moment, had a huge platter i
borne in, upon which was heaped nine
baked Irish potatoes, aggregating 62
pounds in weight. The largest one,
weighing eleven pounds, was placed be- I
fore Senator Faulkner. He looked at it
in ama.emeut, apd asked what it was.
They told him it was a potato. 'But
my God,' be exclaimed, 'it surely isn't
til to eat!' They broke it open and
poured it out before him, mealy and
white, nearly enough to fill a Hour sack,
and filling the whole room with the
aroma of a perfect and delicious potato
The senatorial stumper whs 'stumped, '
and hail to admit that he had at last,
'seen a day when hecoilldn't eat a baked
potato;' and the Walla Walla jokers
were satisfied, although it had taken
them all day to get the potato baked."

Saturday morning the Hood lino
White Salmon ferry was swamped just
off the upper dock, aud an hour after
wards the occupants 'of the boat, Will
Rankin and Fred Purser, were picked up
near tnderwood landing by the tug of
the Nicolai-Camerun mill. Tbe men
were crossing to the White Salmon side
for the mail and in attempting to hoist
the boom pole in tiie heavy wind the sail
flopped the boat on its side and a big
wave completely filled it with water. )
The boat, though, has too much of aj
center board to let it upset, so Rankin
and Purser climbed to the sides of t tie
boat and calmlv awaited the arrival of
assistance. The men on the mill com- ;
pany's tug saw the accident and imme
diatelv started after them.
