The case of J. W. Ryan and C. R.
tarkey. who were arrested for assault
and battery, came up in Justice Brown
bill's court iast evening, Ned Gates ap
pearing for the defense and F. W. Wil
son for the state. At 9 o'clock the
pugilists were lined $ 10 each. Starkey
paid his fine and went on his way re
joicing, s bile Ryan, io default of pay
ment will languish in jail for the next
Ove days.
C. L. Phillips, the well-known grocery
man of The Dalles, and 0. T. Sheppaid
are at work practically developing tbeir
mining interests in hicb tnev have
solid mor.ey investment, eays the Whit
ney Record. They have three ledges,
two of which are fine, beyond a doubt.
"We have," said Mr. Phillips, ' a seven
foot vein on the Ground Hog in the
Greenhorn mountains. We have four,
other claims in the vicinity, two of
which ehow rich values. Two of them
are free milling ore, running very high
in values." Mr. Phillips had with him
an exhibit of four ounces of pure gold
taken out j Uct by pounding the rock and
washing it.
We had hoped to be able to give a list
today of the voung ladies who would tie
in the contest for queen of the carnival,
but upon asking for a report from the
committee we found them lornewhat
handicapped. In deference to the
young ladies who objected to the mode
of voting last year, aL.d to prevent any
Damei appearing which Blight be ob
jectionable, th 'adies decided to make
the nominations themselves, after con- '
suiting those who were suggested at
their first meeting. N W, it appears,
many w ho would oiherw iee be w iliing to
serve, are bfi'kward for fear of defeat, !
and but a very few have consented to I
enter. 'lor voung ladies should not
look at it from that standpoint. Jt is changes in echool books, and upon the
not a contest for the most popular voung courBe of study and school records.
Tbil morning a telephone message w as
I received by Charles Michelbach from
Sheriff Totten, of Skamania county, to
the eireet thai Harold L. ChenOWetb.
better known as "Rocky Chenoweth," I
i had committed suicide by cutting his
throat last night at St. Martin's springs.
No further particulars have as yet been j
received, and Undertaker Burget will
leave this afternoon to bring the body
to this city.
For Bt least two years past Mr.!
Chenoweth has been a enll'erer from
tuberculosis and. at intervals has gone j
down to Si. Martin's in the hope of re- I
ceiving benefit, but in vain. No doubt I

Landers, of our city schools, will also
talk on the course of studies for state
high schools.
Professor Banders also has charge of
the musical program, arranging not only
for the day sessions, but for evening as
well. Some of our best music talent
have consented to appear.
Before receivintr certificates of attend
ance teachers must be present at least
sixteen hours previous, and credits on
attendance will count only on presence
at dav sessions. Suffice to say the
teachers, as far as possible will tie ttiere.
State .superintendent Ackerman will
be present Thursday, and after attend
ing the institute at Albany will return
to The Dalles on the late train Friday,
being here for the school officere meet
ing Saturday.
Superintendent 'iilbert's idea for call
ing this meeting, which U something
new, is the hope of bringing about a
mere mutual relation between echool
officers, teachers and patrons, invita
tions have been issued for school officers
and patrons in general to attend. There
are 272 officers in the county, and many
from Hood River, Mosier and this city
will be 00 hand. It is hoped that the
more ibo.ated districts will semi at least
one representative.

All cannot be queen, but they can at
least artist in making this Important
feature of ttie affair a success. Beside,
in a financial way it means much to the
carnival. The most prominent young
ladies in our neighboring eities have
allowed their names Q be used, and
surely we nave as many fitted for a
like position as they. We hope to have
a favorable report from the committee
in the course of a few days.

He was a man of exceptionally tine
I education, and of him it may be said he
was most honest and kind to everyone
but himself. Were his friends ill or in
trouble "Rocky" could not do enough
for them and his unselfishness no doubt
I led to hi tragic death.

About B o'clock last night two men I
entered the Japanese headquarters of I
' the railroad camp at Bowena station,
and began shooting at the three .Japs
who were sleeping therein, with what
intent it was difficult to decipher, as, if
robbing had be.n their only object, it1
I Was a Strange way to proceed. Two of
the daps were shot, one seriously, and
before they could reach the section house
the viillani had lucceedsd in getting1

One of the men reached the section 1
and gave the alarm, but the other could

wood, of this i ity, who had gone down
, to visit her eon, who is employed 00 the j
road work, in company with the wife of
the section boss, heard moani and upon
going to a shed near by, found one of
the Japt seeming badly irjired and
blood How ing from his wounds. He was
taken to the section house and, with
the other injured man, brought up to
this city on trie !i 1 1 5 train, where Drs.
Logan and Qeiaendorffer dressed their
wounds. One received gun shot wounds
in the back, but to what extent he was
injured we have not learned. The other
was shot jn t he face. They were both
taken to St, Vincent's hospital on this
moruiug'B train.
It is supposed i he shooting was done
by tramps; hut a- a saj difficult to get
