The Old Fort Dallet Historical soci
ety, composed of a number of pro
gressive women of The Dalles, makes
a specialty of collecting historical
data concerning the settlement and
development of Oregon, and the fol
lowing interesting skltch of the first
Columbia river steamboat, written "by
this association, will be found highly
ertertainlng:
The first steamboat built by citizens
of Oregon was the Columbia, at Up
per Astoria, owned by General Adair
and others, Captain Frost, In 1850.
She was 90 feet Ion-, carried 75 tons
and made her Initial trip on the 4th
of July of that year to Portland.
Mr. Fmily Marlln, mother of Mrs. J.
B. Crosjen, was a passenger.
The rplumbla waa the first steam
boat to run to the Cascades. The
Flint was the pioneer steamer to ply
the waters of the mid-Columbia In
1S51. having been shipped around
the Horn f-onc New York In a sail
ing vess,!, but was before long taken
over the Cascades, lengthened and the
engines of the Columbia put in and
renamed the Fashion, which boat op
erated to the Cascades.
The historic Mary and Wasco came
to the relief of the settler at the Cas
cades. to March, 16.
Tfrt organization of the O. S. N.
"company, in I860, was one of the
great factors In the development
of the inland empire, with its palatial
steamboats and the Independent lines,
the ErK Teaser, Gold Dust, following
in succession.
K plor.cer steam packet plying be
tween Portland and San Francisco in
the early '60s. was the Ocean Bird,
and the bark Keoka, owned by two,
Captain Halls, father and son.
An Item In the first issue of the
Oregonian of December 4, 1S50, states
that the materials for the paper had
been "hipped by, the Keoka on De
cember S, due InShe Columbia river
in 1! days. After waiting three weeks
Mr. Dryer, hearing that the Keoka
was already In the river. Interviews
the elder Captain Hall, of the Ocean
Elrd. as to the probable arrival of
the printing press. On being answer
ed that he '"did not know nor care.'
Mr. Dryer charters a boat and goes
down the- river about 50 miles, where
he finds the Keoka ar anchor, takes
of hl "print freight," returns to
Portland in a couple of dnys, with six
Indian power. The day before the
p-iper came out the Keoka appears In
the river front Just four days out of
San Fran"isco.
The Ocean Hlrd'was built and ovra
ed by the father of Thomas I.ang, at
Aucusta, Me., and when she made the
voyage from Boston to Portland,
I.oiiir Davenport, father of Mrs. E
T: Wood, came as one of her crew.

Iowa Lady Has Great Faith

Diseases.
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA
"I had an eruption appear on my
Chest and body and extend upward
and downwards, so that my neck and'
face were all broken out; also my arms
end the lower limbs as far as the knees.
I at first thought it was prickly heat.
But soon scales or crusts formed where
the breaking eut was. Instead of going
to a physician, I purchased a complete
treatment of the Cuticura Remedies, in
which I had great faith, and all was
satisfactory. A year or two later the
eruption appeared again, only a little
lower; but before it had time to spread
I procured another supply of the Cuti
cura Remedies, and continued their use
until the cure was complete. It is now
five years since the last attack, and
have not seen any signs of a return. I
have taken about three bottles of the
Cuticura Resolvent, and do not know
how much of the Soap or Ointment, aa
I always keep them with me; probably
one half down of each.
