we are inrormea that the farmers in

Appeal- Silverton is improving. It has
all the natural advantages to make it a rat
tling city. With a grand country surround
ing it, its prosperity is assured. By work
ing in unison for its mateiial interests, its
growth can be hastened very much.
Peyton Wilkes, aged about 100 years,
died at his residence near Greenville, Wash
' ington county, Nov. 30th. He was one of
the pioneers of Oregon, having crossed the
plains from one of the southern states in
1845. The deceased leaves a large family
of children, grand children and great-grand
children
There is an abundance of wood ia the
city, and there is no possibility ot anything
approaching a wood famine. Those who
are desirous of advertising everything detri
mental to The Dalies should nuderatand
that we are well able to take care of our
selves and desire no sympathy from less
fortunate communities.
Astoria Punter: Saturday afternoon last
- Abjnin Johamen, a logger in the employ cf
H. Alvison, of Young's river, lost his life
by failing into the water from a scow lying
alongside the .Navigation company s dock,
The man attempted to get on the wharf by
means of the rigging of the scow and

into the water. Deceased was about 30
years of age and unmarried.

Eugene Guard: August Albes, a German,
residing near Long Tom postoffice, 10 miles
west of Eugene, met with an accident
Wednesday evening about 5 o'clock which
may cost him his life, and at any rate will
leave him maimed. He was felling a tree
and it started to fall the other way from
that he expected; starting to run to avoid
it he stumbled and fell, the tree falling
across him breaking bis left thigh in three
places and the right thigh in two places.
By some fortunate chance the tree re
bounded and left him free, else he would
have died before he could have been extri
cated. Dr. McKenney assisted by Dr.
Brown reduced the fractures Thursday
morning, and the chances for his recovery
are favorable, although the fearful shock
sustained by him, and possible inflamma
tion may cause a fatal result. Albes is
about 30 years of age and has a wife and
One ehild.
Harry Johnson, a wood-chopper for
Weidler & Co., we are informed by Ha-ry
Blanchard, purser of the Harvest Qneen,
was drowned last Shtucday near Cbenowetb,
about thirty miles west of this city. He
went bunting early in the morning, and
was missed late in the evening. Search
was made for him, and his gun was found
on the edge of the barge anchored in the
river. It is not known how ho got into the
river; but from the fact of his gun lying on
the barge it is presumed the act was pre
meditated. He was not intoxicated, and
there is considerable mystery surrounding
his traicic death. The people in the neigh
borhood dragged the river and found his
body Monday. Mr. Johnson was a Nor
wegian, unmarried, and aged about thirty
five years. The coroner from the Lower
Cascades held the inquest yesterday.
On next Saturday evening at Third Regi
ment Armory, the attraction will be Miss
Charlotte Thompson and her company. Of
this actress the St. Paul Piona-r Press says.
Delightful Charlotte Thompson! without
doubt is one of the finest delineators of
character on the American stage, and she
was greeted at the Academy of music last
night by one of the finest honses of the sea
son. But in a community like this, who
profess to know what's what and who'a
who, the name of Charlotte Thompson
alone was sufficient to fill the bouse from
orchestra to gallery. And the play was
"Jane Eyre" one of the most beautiful,
affecting and moral dramatizations ever put
upon the boards. As the noble, modest,
wronged and forgiving, hnmble, dignified,
sweet, loving and beloved Jane Eyre, Miss
Thompson was simply superb. Her audi
ence was highly appreciative and hung de
lighted, entranced, as it -ere, upon her
every word and action, as though there had
suddenly appeared before them some beau
tiful, holy being from a better world." Re

The muaio at the Episcopal fair last
evening waa most excellent. The duet.
by Professor Tully and Mrs. J. Smith was
well rendered, as well as the dnet by Prof.
Tully and Mai. Benton. The musical rec
itations was a most enjoyable feature of the
entertainment, and our citizens desire that
these especials features be continued to the
close.
We are assured that during the coming
season The Dalles will enjoy more prosper
ity than any city in the northwest. We
believe there will be a telephone system in
anguarated, street railway, woolen factory
and other productive industries. The
Dalles in 1890 will wake np to a full reali'
zation of her advantages and opportunities,
and her growth will not be equalled by any
town in the northwest.
A eav vonne Lothario of this city, ot
nocturnal tendencies, and whom his friends
ingeniously call "the latest thing out," has
hit upon a new scheme to account for his
haggard appearance at breakfast. Having
used all the excuses known, he has lately
been troubled with insomaniv but in an in

known remedies for his maladay, he was
asked by a demnre old lady if he bad ever
tried going to bed, which caused sn abrupt
change of topic In the conversation.
Yesterday an employe ot the company
while walking down the coal track was
struck by a parsing locomotiye and knocked
down. He fell towards the inside of the
track, and the pilot pushed him a distance
of twenty feet without any injuries except a
few bruises. Alter he was released ne
walked np town and was taken to his home.
This accident will not happen so fortunate
ly once in a thousand times, and men who
expected every moment to see him rolled
nnder the ponderous locomotive and mang
led in a fearful manner, watched the acci
dent with most anxious faces.

purchase almost any conceivable object
from a package of candy to the most uuique
Japanese bric-a-brac .
The doll booth, at the fair last night, was
presided over by Mrs. Thornbury, Mrs.
Cites and Miss CM vera. This was a great
attraction for li.tle folks, and for youn
gentlemen desiring bouquets.

admits of no exception.
The art exhibition at the new armory will
continue to-day and to-morrow, from 4 to
19 P. M. This is a rare opportunity for
oir citizens to view some of the finest
works of art in the state.

they may strike it by boring in different
localities.
Among the gems on exhibition in the
art gallery is a ctuster of fruit loaned by
Mr. J. O. Mack, which was painted in
1801. The colors are still fresh and
bright, although more than three quarters
of a century have elapsed since the bru-h
of the painter did the work. 1 he picture
is highly priztd by Mr. Mack, as it may
well be, considering its age, and that it
has been a souvenir in the family for all
these years.
At Vancouver Wednesday morning John
Wilson, one of the most prominent citizens
of the town, was fatally shot by a stranger
who arrived there on the morning train,
and who went to Wilson's place of business.
After the shooting the stranger fled and has
not been apprehended. O dicers are in pur
suit. The cause of the shooting is a mys-
try. Wilson was well known in Eastern
Oregon, having, it ia understood, lived at
Baker City at one time.
Thomas H. Mills was shot and killed
near Prairie City on Saturday Nov. 23d,
by Andreas Hanson, a sheepberder in the
employ of Hall Bros. Mills was walking
to his cabin, under the influence of liquor,
and is supposed to have fallen into a
ditch. In a dazed condition he was
crawling around on his hands and knees,
when the sheepherder's dog commenced
barking. Being dark the sheepberder
supposed it was some wild animal, and
fired seven or eight shots- As soon as be
found bis mistake he carried Mil's to his
cabin, and delivered himself up. Mills
was in a dying condition when brought to
the house and only survived a few min
utes. The New York Herald says that "Miss
Charlotte Thompson is of charming pres
ence and gifted by nature with rare talent.
She is most undoubtedly in the foremost
ranks of the artistic world. There are few,
if any, who have all the advantages which
Miss Thompson possesses. Her manner is
natural, and the absence of stage conven
tionality is not the least charm of her per
sonations. Her action ia free and graceful,
and she possesses a depth of sentiment and
passionate energy which gives a vivid re
ality to every motion. At times she has
also vivacity and archness, aud all the
buoyant and electric spirit of glowing
genins." She takes ton leading lady's part
n East Lynn at the Third Regiment Armory
Hall to-morrow night.
W. W. cTnion: A dispatch from Union,
Or., dated Dec. 3, says: "The subsidy de
manded by G. W. Hunt, manager of the
Oregon & Washington Territory road, to
extend the line through the Grande
Ronde valley from Walla Walla to Union,
has been fully raised. The subsidy,
which amounts to $00,000, was raised last
summer, but owing to delay in securing
it, the time for completion of the road had
to be extended, necessitating renewal of
all subscriptions formerly made. This
was done aud Manager Hunt telegraphed
from New York to-day to Assistant Man
ager Herman at Walla Walla to send an
engineering party immediately to make
final location of the road in the valley."
The corps of engineers leave this city this
morning. Twenty miles of the grade is
to be completed by Aug. 1st neit, and
the road is to be finished to Union

but came in too late for that purpose. The
game was mostly all killed on the stock
ranches of Messrs. Jones and Akers near
Emigrant Springs, where these gentlemen
are extensively engaged in breeding and ira
porting of thoroughbred horses and cattle.
During our week's stay with these gentle
men we had an excellent time and were en
tertained to our heart's content. While
hunting in deep canyons we were shown a
huge petrified oak log, that must haye at

known to natural history; also fine sped'
mens of petrified cotton and other wood,
The geese were in the wheat fields in count
loss numbers, and their rising np from the
fields often resembled that of an approach
ing cyclone. No estimation as to their
numbers could possibly be made, and we
o'ten saw large fields literally covered with
them, and were told that there was much
damage done to fall sown wheat by these
feathered robber.
The fall sown wheat looks fine and prom
ises fair, to make np for the loss farmers
s iffered this year. The soil in that portion
of the country seems to be very rich, and
we are of the opinion that if wheat growers
and farmers in general would resort a little
more to deep plowing, there would never
need to be any fear of a calamity, such as
was experienced this year by the drought.
The young bunch grass looks tine and cattle
are rolling fat.
Upon a special invitation the party called
on Mr. Draper, also an extensive stockman
and wheat grower, near Emigrant. The
party was there also pleasantly entertained,
and Mr. Draper has quite a museum of cur
iosities, amoug which we saw flue specimens
of granite stone, nuggets, and ali kinds of
petrified wood and "iaft but not least" our
host produced a petritied human finger just
as natural as that of a departed mortal.
Mr. Draper and .family s kindness toward
us will long be remembered, as will also
that of Messrs. Jones and Akers.

Editor Tutxs-lfoosTaiHua:
By observations regarding the growth of
towns surrounding us, I find that there is a
certain cause which creates this result.
We, with bountiful and pretty surround
ings, had this past summer a good and sub
stantial growth in some respects, caused by
a few energetic citizens taking their money
(which they made here) and building fine
business blocks,planting large orcliards.etc.
With pleasure I can say that we kept pace
with most of our sister towns. But ft is
necessary to continue this prosperous
growth in order to retain the lead we have
of rival cities. It is not ' denied that we
have equal, in fact, superior inducements
for immigration. All that ia required is to
attract their attention to us.
My dear friends and citizens, right here.
let me impress on you that the cause of
those cities growing so rapidly is. that a
united, good and enterprising feeling is ex
tended towards those intending to locate
among them. Although towns of small
population, but possessed of a laudable am
bition toward getting people interested in
their welfare, financially and socially,which
haye heretofore been wanting in our com
munity sufficiently to cause tbe main stream
of west ward-bouud settlers to come and
stay. Build up new and promising homes.
which receive the admiration of thousands
who came to onr state the last few veara.
aud yon will realize an equal and satis
factory benefit ot your investment to induce
pie to come to The Dalles. Wc who
ave lived at The Dalles for veara. should
build up a city second to none on the Pa
cific coast, as we possess the facilities and
advantages, and then invite those with suf
ficient means to come and build new homes
and follow profitable business vocations.
They would be willing to exchange their
blizzard swept wis tea for this land ' of
abundance. Therefore I suggest that an
Immigration Bureau be established for the
above mentioned purposes, and to stimulate
toe growth of a steady and industrious
population in onr magnificent climate, and
that we extend the hand of welcome to all
who may come. ' H. A.

This young woman was most exemplary in

Yesttrday was Thanksgiving, and every

to the dictates of their own consciences,
which is a glorious God-given privilege that
we may worship Gid and no man dare mo
lest or make us afraid. Work was sus
pended 011 the locks and the government
Hag floated ou the breezes.
There are butjtow meu v. or king on the
locks, and they seem to be busily engaged
heaping rocks on the bulkhead at tbe lower
end of the ciual, eo that it will withstand
next June's freshet. Also they have a huge
rock ou the incline that is used for hand
ling material witii the endless chain. I
think the plant is pretty well secured to
withstand the June high water. I learned
to-day that there is plenty of rock withia
three miles of here that is superior to the
Spnkaue granite. There is enough of it
wihin four miles of the locks to wall the
Columbia river to the Lower Cascades, six
milss distant. The rock is described as of
a lava formation, of the tertiary epoch, and
is pretty generally distributed throughout
this country. It is indisputable evidence
that at one time vast volcanoes roared their
dire vengeance in this region and poured
their molten wrath upon the recioient soil.
This rock is easily dressed, aud workmen
may have to handle many detached frag
ments; but this would be convenient for
rilling in and bracing no the walls. The
old Ruckle's landing at the upper end of
the canal, which was used successfully for
years, may be improved by the nse of this
rock, which is easy to handle. When the
contractors. Ball and Pratt, commenced ex
cavating the canal, they piled a huge lot of
boulders and rocks on the bedrock at the
lower end of the locks, which laid there and
withstood the swift water for years. Thev
answer for a good salmon lead to-day, and
the idea has suggested itself to me that the
same kind of material might be used to im
prove the landing or entrance at the nouer
end of the canal.

the benefit of district clerks in the county:
. Section 42. Districts shall not be enti
tled to their proportion of the school funds
at the disposal of the county school super
intendent unless they shall report to him by

and shall have had a school taught in their
district of one quarter's duration in each
year; provided, that the entire school funds
received annually by each school district
from the apportionments of the five-mill
county school tax and tbe irreducible state
school fund made by the several county
school superintendents shall be exhausted
within and during the year for which such
apportionments aie made and shall be ex
pended for school purposes only; providea
further, that no part of the tive mill county

quired to have a school as aforesaid for the
apace of one year from the date of it or
ganization. V ben a district has forfeited
its school money no recourse whatever shall

The Result of the Fair.
Many times it has been asked, How much
has the Catholic fair realized? Some guessed
enormously high figure, while the esti
mate of others was too low. Now that all
principal returns ot receipts are in, and
mostly all expenses paid, 1 make the fol
lowing statement to all concerned:
Mrs. T. Baldwin's table. No 1. $943.90-
Mrs.. P. J. Nichols, No. 2. $1145: Miss .
FitzGerald'a, No. 3, $277-50; anpper table,
$100; door receipts, S201.95. Total. S2.-
067,75; expenses, (133,75. Balance re
ceipts, $2534. So then our fair has been a
success a grand success. Wherever it is
known our town will he admired for its lib
erality, and for its confidence in itself. For
what city of its size would, in the only hard
year the country has had in the memory of
man, speed so freely money foi the construe
tinn of a church.
I also avail myself of this opportunity to
express my heartfelt gratitude to all for the
generous support they have given our fair.
An especial claim on our gratitude have Mr.
Mux Vogt ami Airs. Chapman who gener
ously attended to hall expenses. I owe
especial thanks to our merchants who gave
so liberal donations, and to Mrs. T. Bald
win, Mrs. P. J. Nichols. Miss E. FitzGer
ald as managers of the tables, and for their
most laitbtut helpers, and to the ladies who
undertook the difficult task of runoiug the
diuing room. I extend the sentiments of
my gratitudo to all those who did any work
in connection with the fair for having done
their work well and at most liberal rates.
My thanks are not of much weitrht. but I
sincerely hope that God will bless all who
nave helped na in this work.
Ks8pcctfully,

kind hearts and willing bauds will adminis
ter to them the same tender care.

condition, which causes tbo blood to move slug
gi&hly, which in turn enfeebles the pores. The
resilt is, that the exuding secretions block in ths
pores, which inflame, each distinct inflamma
tion being a pimple. Sr. Fox therefore dool
not proscribe "blood purifiers" so called, bnt a

words "till tlit dytpeptial symptom have disap
peared." The old idea was, that face oruptloni
were caused by a "humor in the blood," foi
which they trea4d the blood, giving the mineral
potash. Hence the reason why tho older sarsa-
parlllas contain potash. Joy's Vegetable Sana
parilla follows the modem ideas o' Dr. Fox, and
aims with rentle vegetable alteratives at the
