A man by the name of Reed, a sheep
herder for the Baldwin Sheep and Land
Co.. entered a saloon in the Fast End
last night hunting trouble. He held u
revolver UDder the proprietor's note
cxd snapped the trigger three limes, but
fortunately the cartridges did nut ex
plode. The. weapon was a Smith V
Wesson 14-caliber and the indentures
are plainly difcernible on the cartridges.
Keed w as arrested by Deputy SLt-i itt
Sexton today, and this afternoon he was
examined by Justice f'.iowuhill for the
crime.
We understand un investigation is be
ing made as to the cause of the runaway
Monday when the lives of two children
were jeopardised, and poine one is liable
at least to be taught a lesson which he
will not soon forget. There is too much
careless riding going on in The Dalles,
and the wonder is that more accidents
do not occur. There is an ordinauce
against fast riding through our streets,
which should be enforced, and it would
be well to add another ordinance against
riding broncos through our streets in !
the manner in which it is done every I
few days. Boys, and men also, are in
the habit of tearing down the main I
streets, for the sake of showing off, and
by so doing endanger the lives of women
and children, who mav be driving, for
no horse, however gentle, will stand be
ing ridden into as was the case Monday.
OUR OLD ENEMY-
: The Fire Demon Destroys 1'orter'a
Stable and CillSireth' Lumbering
Hulnes. ; Just so often in the history of The j
Dalles muEt we be visited by the fire de-1
moo, and for fear we were having too
long a respite he made his usual call
last night about 10 o'clock. When the
first sound of the alarm was beard, and
people from force of habit turned their 1
eyes toward the Kast End, a bisa of j
i fire met their eyes, and showed that !
Lewis Porter's 6table, ou the corner of
Second and Laughlin street, was doomed.
Mr. Porter had just left the stable
wiien a blase 1 -aped from the back part j
of the building upstairs. Seeing there i
was no hope of putting it out the men
Bounded the alarm an 1 began moving
things out. Mr. Porter returned and at ;
once began letting the horses loose.
There was a large number of animals;
in the stable, but they had little diffi- j
culty in getting them out. As Mr. Por- j
ter went to turn Dutch McCoy 'e horse j
lo.se tiie fire wes coming down the hay
shute lively, but he succeeded in cutting
Iris halter, although the animal kicked
i deeperateiy, and tie was saved.
Though the building is totally de- :
stroyed, the horses, wagons and all but
one harness and the neck yoke of W. IL ;
' Wilson's Shetland was saved. As a
matter of fact there was much parapher
nalia not mentioned, but representing ;
, money, which was lost.
; We were unable to determine the
exact loss sustained, but understand Mr.
' Porter was well insurfd. However BOflB
' iug at this particular time the damage
to the business cannot be estimated.
In spite of hard work,, the Haines
Bpread to the lumber yard and building
Of R, B. Gilbreth, just east, and soon it
was enveloped. From this nothing was
saved excepting a small amount of;
lumtei, most of which was damaged.
We understand Mr. Gilbreth had a large
stock of paints, oiis, glass, etc., and his
loss is estimated at almost 6000, with
little more then $1000 insurance. This
is a severe loss to the owner, who has
not been in business a year yet, and who
is a hard-working and worthy citizen.
lieride these two firms J. T. Peters
lost 1100 Oil his building opposite;
Filloon M0oa ftotk stored with iiN
breth ; Pease & Mays' warehouse, about
fiOO; Mrs. Periano, the milliner, also
suffered a slight loss on her building, as
did also Watts of the marble works and 1
Markillie, of the gents furnishing store.
It is generally conceded the fire was
'of incendiary origin. Mr. Porter tells
Upon reetiving the startling Mwl ol
the suicide of Win. VftObibbot yesterday
afternoon at a lime so near our publica
tion hour we were unable to give but tl e
meagercst report, but upon Inquiry e
understand that Mr. Vuubibbev had
given no sign in the morning of an un
usual dntpondnney. Oil the contrary,
early in the morning he farad to assist
his wife with her washing, but Shu dt
ciined saying she was afraid he might
make hie rheumatism worse by putting
his hands into the water. He then said
he would go down into the bean patch
and told the hired man to harness Mrs.
Vanbibber's horse as she w ished to go
to town ialer. He was accustomed to
coming in for his lunch about noon, and
as he failed to return. Tom LanreDXAn,
who is employed by them, started to the
garden to lot k for him. Going through
the cow shed on his way down he saw
Mr. VnnblbbM at t tie other end of the
shed and being unable to discern his po
sition from where he stood, called to turn.
What was the man's horror as he came
nearer to find he had hung himself.
Taking a mediura-ei (d rope he hail
thrown it twice over a scantling about a
foot above nis head and held the end
with his left hand. His knees were
slightly bent, his toes touching the
ground. The young man at once ran to
the house, anil Will Yanbibber himself
carefully lilted the body down and re
moved it to the house. Neighbors were
then sent for and arrived in a short time,
w hen word was brought to the city. Dr.
Shackelford, the family physician, the
undertaker and Coroner Butts at once
went down, but the latter deemed it un
necessary to hold an inquest.
William H. Yanbibber, who was born
in Missouri sixty-seven years ago last
June, came to The Dalles in the
early 60's. A short time after he was
employed by Mr. Marsh, who kept a
dairy below the city. In '(35 he went
into the same business for himself, and
from that time until a year ago he has
been a familiar figure driving into our
city each morning and supplying his
customers with milk. On November
10, 1867 be was married to Miss .lohann
Marsh, Rev. John T. Wolf performing
the ceremony. To them two sons were
born, William, who survives him, and
Marcus, who was drowned in the Co
lumbia three years ago.
About a year ago Mr. Vanbibber had
a severe attack of lung fever, from which
he never fully survived, and of late has
suffered much witli rheumatism, having
about lost the use of his right hand.
Sunday he said to bis son, "Willi I have
lost my right hand and will soon lose
the use of my leg. I'd rather be dead
than helpless." His suffering, together
with a despondency febich had come
from the loss of his son and the fact
that he was compelled by ill health to
give up his occupation, is thought to
have been the cause of the final
dejection, which no doubt led to the
act that caused his death. His friends
have remarked of late that "Van" was
not himself.
The shock which camo to the com
munity was great, for he was a friend to
everybody and everybody ti frieud of his.
Upright, good nature. I. honest ami a
splendid chien, he will he sadly missed.
To his wife, who has been a constant,
faithful helpmate, the shock comes with
terrible force; and, together with her
soq, she has the deepest sympathy of
all.
Beside his wife and son, Mr. Vanbib
ber leaves a brother, who lives at Ljle.
