From Wednesday Daily.
Mr. W. Wolf is confined to bia room by
a severe attack of rheumatism.
Mr. B. F. Hoke bas been admitted to
practice as attorney before the land office
In this city.
The late severe weather has caused the
death of a large number of jack rabbits
near Pendleion.
There is about a foot ot snow at Grant,
, and a foot on the level on the prairie. The
, temperature is 23 above zero.
- - Suow fell, first on Dec. 201U and hascon-
tinned ver since. For the past two weeks
the sleighing has been excellent.
The river is now open between this city
and Rockland; but the present snow
storm will undoubtedly block it in a short
time.
.. The re-districting of the county, for
. voting, road and school purposes. Is com-
mendab.c action on the part of the county
court.
About three inches of snow fell last
night. We., keep this item stereotyped,
and will use it quite frequently during
the next two weeks.
"Forty-Nine Jimmie," a widely known
miner, who has been in the Granite Creek
country for the past thirty years, died at
Kobinsonville a few days ago.
Ko one so far has had the temerity to
mention to us anything about the beauti
lul -snow. If any such should appear
there may be a coroner's inquest.
The train came through from Poitland
to-dav with three locomotives leading.
Their appearance would indicate that
they came through a "sea of ice."
The train Irom Portland arrived last
night and also the west-bound. ' We are
now in communication with the outside
world, but how long will this continue?
A. B. Rothrock. a prominent citizen of
the Weston neighborhood, in Umatilla
county, died last Monday uiyht of paralysis,
. aged 70. He leaves a wife and several sons.
The UT.-3I. 3rJecial" bob-sled in front
of the office this afternoon created con
siderable comment. It will undoubtedly
be the "boss coaster" and will be eagerly
sought after.
Peter Eben, a boy about 15 years of age,
had his leg broken yesterday by an acci
dent while coasting down Union street.
He is getting along nicely, and will lie
around again in u few days.
The coastinsr on Union street hill last
night was enlivened by the notes of the
cornet. Our people are enjoying them
selves, notwithstanding winter in its most
horrid aspect reigns supreme.
The train came in last night without be.
ing preceded by the snow-plow, demon
strating the fact that the road is now clear
of obstructions; but the snow hich fe 1
this morning may cause a blockade, east
and west of this city.
Review: C. A. Gilbert came down fmm
Upper Deschutes the first of the weok.
Ho says the snow on Big Meadows is
only about three feet deep. (Some of the
settlers are out of feed and are driving
their stock to the desert.
Mr. J. N. Patterson took up a subscrip
tion last night to keep Union street hill in
proper repair In going np the hill per
sons are forbidden to use the street, but
must uso the sidewalk. In going down
the street alone must be used.
Ochoco Review: Hon. C. M. Cartwright,
who was in town the first of the week,
said stock on Hay creek was standing the
winter well. Most all the settlers)u that
section have plenty of feed, and they ex-
little loss. '
T. A. Houghton, our artist, took a plio
togrrph of- the rotary snow plow to-day as
it came through the road between here
and Portland. It literally bored iis way
throuL'h an avalanche oi snow, and will
be a sight long to be remembered in this
semi-irui ical legion.
H. B. A. Hales, one of the most promi
nent farmers of the Adanr.s neighborhood,
djed Tuesday morning after a short illness.
Mr. Hales has long been identided with
Umatilla politics, and was at one time a
candidate on the Republican ticket for rep
resentative. Perry Leabo, a 15-year-old son of O. H.
Leabo.a prominent farmer living three miles
. north of McMinnyille, is suffering from a
severe case of lockjaw, resulting from a
mangled wrist that was broken by being
thrown from a hone some days ago while
'lassoing stock. His ecovery is doubtful.
Of all the bob-sleds now running down
the Union street cut the Times-Mountaineer
Special beats them all. The T. if.
phalanx consists of the compositors of the

captain and W. F. Grunow, lieutenant, is
second in command. Even the editor has

Fossil Journal: The snow has not been
over 6 inches deep here. It bas blown and
melted off the hill tops aud steep sides, in
many places entirely, ft has thawed con
siderably the last three days, and the
Weather is still- comparatively warm and
pleasant, wjth the snow melted and settled
down to about three inches on the level.

judge then sentenced him to be banged
March 28th. j
We apprehend considerable loss of
stock of all kinds this winter. Snow lias
now been on the ground for over a month,
and feed has been very meagre. The par
tial failure of crops last season did not
furnish but little feed for stock, and in
consequence cattle of a'l kinds must live
economically this winter. We have learned
so far of great losses of sheep at Antelope,
and we fear there will be more before the
jVinter pnds.
The Fossil Journal complains that some
sneak thief in this country has for a couple
pf year been engaged in defacing the brand
of fiorjes apd cattle that he supposed to be
strays, sometimes by burning out the whole
brand, and other tunes by adding something
to it so that the owner would not likely
recognise it as his. The editor gives warn
ing, if this is pot stopped one fine morning
some sneak thief will "wake up" and tiud
himself in another world, "his body sus
pended from the Ijmb of a free by a rope.''

Reports from Northern Nevada state that
cattle are dying at an alarming rate from
the effects of the severe storm. In the
southern part of the state, however, the
winter thus far has been mild and loss of

At Oregon City Monday, a man made a
filing IP the land cilice that is an extraordi

was tor forty acres uear Milwaukee, in
township 1, south range I, cast. When he
applied to the register that official supposed
the piece of laud applied for to be railroad
land, and so stated, bat the man said the
railroad company knew nothing about it,
and persisted in filing, so his application
was taken, and on looking op the matter on
the records, it was found to be vacant. As
land in that vicinity is worth $200 or up
wards per acre, the applicant has secured
from Uncle Sam a very valuable home

Spokane Chronicle: H. M. Livermqre, of
this city, tells an interesting incident, illus
trating the constancy with which a dog will
care lor those who have been his friends. A
short time siuce Mr. Livermore's father-in-law,
Thomas Kemp, and a friend named
Gray, went hunting near Crescent Bay.
During the afternoon the hunters became
separated, aud in the evening Mr. Gray re
turned to town, supposing that Mr. Kemp,
who was well acquainted with the woods,
had preceded him or would soon be in. It
was not until the next morning Mr. Kemp's
absence caused any alarm. A searching
parfy Was organized, and finally he was
found, v dead, with the two dogs standing
guard pver bis tjodv, one at his feet and the
other at his' head. ' It was their barking
that had guided the hunters to the spot.
He had been dead, evidently, since some
time on the ' preceding afternoon, having
fallen with a 'stroke of paralysis. Mr.
f'emp was well known to many people of
pokane and vicinity, who will learn of his
death with regret. '

Dallas Observer: At present the problem
of lieing able to run logs this wintcr,appears
to be somewhat mixed, lucre is a good tall
of snow in the mountains; but the question
arises, how will this go off. Should it go off
suddenly, with a rain, the streams will float
the logs in tine shape; but should warm
weather continue aud the snow go off grad
ually, the waters will be no higher than last
winter. 63 far this winter the waters of
the La Creole have hardly been muddled.
Everybody is looking for and earnestly hop-

Five Mile creek, last Tuesday, and cut off

18 feet of the surface, aud the concussion
raised him about six feet and let him fall
very suddenly. He was badly scared when
hauled out, and as pale as a ghost. Cov
ered as he was with snow, he was an object
which would strike terror into the mind of
any superstitious person. It is well to have
a good length of fuse when yon are escaping
from a blast iu a deep bole.

Axtorlan: People who think of Finland
as a subarctic ccuotry of bleak and forbid

several railroads have already made a large
part of the region accessible. A new line,
160 miles long, has just been opened to the
heart of the country, in the midst of great
forests aud perhaps the most wonderful
laae region in the world. Sportsmen are
now within a day's jonrney from St. Peters
burg of central Finland, where there is the
best ot hunting and fishing and 20 hours of
sunlight every summer day. Uhe most
unique of railroads, however, is still the
little line in Norway, north of the Arctic
circle, carrying the product cf far northern
mines to the sea, and famous as -any rail
road that has yet invaded the polar regions.

SAD TALES OF THE PASSENGERS,
First Through Train for Eight Days
Pulls into The Dalles (his Morning.
Incidents of the Blockade, Which so
to Make up a First Introduction
to ldfe In the Far West.
From Tuesday's Daily.
This morning about 8 o'clock the first
through passenger train from the cast for
eight days arrived in the city, and was a
welcome sight to our people, knowing that
again the iron rail gave ns communication
with our far eastern neighbors. To our old
residents it was simply a page of our past
history rewritten, when a closed river and
snow-blocked roads stopped communication
with the outside world for several weeks,
The carriages appeared as though they had
passed through snowdrifts to the roofs.
The congealed element had its mark on
windows and doors, and the steps were
covered to the deith of about three inches,
The passengers were joyful beyond de
scription, after being released from a nine
days' blockade at Baker City. The major
ity bad been two and three weeks in making
the trip from their eastern homes, and dur
ing that time bad been coupea np in me
ow limits of passenger coaches. At
Baker City the company furnished them
two meals a day, but no beds. This they
did not complain of, and although suffering
this long delay, to a Times-Modntaiseer
reporter they made no complaints. His
attention was called to an item in the Baker
City Democrat, calling them "cranks," and
wishing they would leave and "growl"
somewhere else. They were honest and in
dustrious citizens, and left their old homes
to better their conditions in the far west.
To be considered tramps or idlers was an
insult to them. Give them an oportunity
our forests or on our prairies, and in a
little while tbey would make Oregon as
productive as Iowa or Illinois.
There were three hundred immigrants
blockaded at Baker City.and after they bad
been there two or three days sickness and
death came among them. A young man
named McLane, who came from a town in
Missouri, and was in the last stage of con
sumption, wanted to reach the home of his
parents near Spokane Falls, died. His
remains were buried there. Telegrams were
sent to his father, but it was impossible to tell
when the train could get through, and so
it was thought advisable to bury him
at that place. Two others died, whose
names we could not learn one, we are in
formed, a mail agent, from pneumonia. The
passengers seemed willing to give all possi
ble intormation, but could not give the
names of these two wbo met the pale horse
ith his rider in the mountains of Ureaon.
The sick list comprised 52, and they were
troubled with colds and the la grippe. Dr.
Snow, the company's physician, did every
thing to relieve their suffering, and every
one speaks of bim in the highest terms of
commendation. If he is ever in need of
friends he can always rely upon the passen
gers of this ill-fated train.
Just as the reporter was leaving the car,
a young man came forward and lodged com
plaints against the dining car conductor.
He said the conductor invited him to take a
meal,and then ordered him out in a brusque
and abrupt manner. At another time he
used ungeutlemanly language to him, and
the passenger desired the world, to know
bow be was treated
The destination of the immigrants were
to different points in the northwest, some
to Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Newcastle
aud other towns. They were extremely
anxious to reach a stopping place, and were
hopeful that in a few days their trials and
hardships wonld be oyer.
A Social vent
From Saturday's Daily.
Speaking of a. "Social Session" by the
Postage Stamp Co. and the Black Hussar
Band, it was nothing, simply nothing, com
pared with the dance given by the Social
Club last evening at the Old Armory hall.
This is the fourth dance of the club and the
members of the string band are to be com
plimented on the elegant music rendered on
this occasion, which could not but please
the most critical lover of the "light fantas
tic." The dresses of the ladies were some
thing well something not to be described
by your humble servant, who is but a voice
in that line, but as brevity is said to be the
soul of wit (?) he will have to sat'sfy the
subscribers of the Tiues-Mountaineer by
saying they were superb. In point of
numbers the dance was also a success, for
taking ipto consideration the good coasting
and tobogganing, the elite, jouth and
beauty of the "city turned ant in goodly
numbers, Apropos elite, yonth and beauty,
a young lady informed one of the boys in
the course of a conversation "that the gen
tlemen might consider themselves the
'elite,' but the ladies were undoubtedly
the youth aud beauty." We admit the
latUr, but when they put the boys down as
"the elite" tbey compliment ns; they know
ns better than we do ourselves. I wonder
what name they will call us next. But
leaving all joking aside the next social will
be held on Jan. 31st unless notice a given
to the contrary. Keep it uppermost in
your mind this will be the last of the social
series. Young ladies get out your fine
dresses agajn iu two weeks aud come along
Don't forget to curl your hair all the well,
we'll wait until the next social and see
what "nice names" the youth and beauty
will call ns and then we will be "able" to
tell you who was there, if we don't get
"caned" for what we have already said.

fork Packing.
We publish the following letter for the
purpose of interesting our citizens in this
enterprise. We believe pork packing
would be a paying investment, and it wonld
be advisable for some of our business men
to correspond with Mr. Reynolds:
Centerville, Or., Jan. 18, 1S0O.
Editor Tunts-MocsTAUtiia:
Having seen an item taken from yonr
paper, relative to the proposed erection of a
pork packing establishment in your city
some time this spring, may I tresspass upon
your time to make me acquainted with the
intending projectors. I am thoroughly com
petent, not only in every branch of the
packing business, but also the erection and
requirements of the building, and possibly
it ir.igr.t be mntnaliy beneficial to an par
tics. Personally speaking, I consider The
Dalles one of the very best locations for
such an enterprise. 1 might say that in
18S6 I cured 500 rigs for Hoxtor and Neweli,
of Klickitat, some 23,000 pounds of the
product was sold to W. Tackman, Brooks &
Beers and others of yonr city. 1 believe
you mentioned the circumstance in one of
your issues in 1887. I would be pleased to
communicate with the parties, and feel ob
liged to you for an introduction.

l,earn From Experience.
Ochoco Review.
There is no question now but the loss ol
stock in Crook county from the effects of
the present storm, will be quite heavy.
And while the loss will be a serio"s set
back to many, it will teach a lesson from
which they ought to profit in the future.
That is, that it is no longer safe to depend
on the range feed for winter, and also that
stock, especially sheep, must be run in
smaller bands to be profitable. True, the
past three or four seasons have been un
usually dry, which has kept the natural
grass on the range irom growing to its
natural bight and from winter pasture.
but it is also true that the bunchgrass is
being killed out, so that it is no longer
safe to depend upon it for winter leed. Of
course we may expect an occasional mild
winter when stock will thrive on the
range without artificial feed. But the
stockmen must learn from past experience
that there will come winters when stocs:
must be fed, and must make preparations
therefor. There is enough tillable land in
the county to raise sufficient feed for all
the stock owned here, if it were cultivated
and this the stockmen must do if they
would guard against such losses as tbey
will sustain this winter.

A VIGOROUS KICK.
A. Merchant's Wife tbe Bone of Contention.
A Denunciation.
A well known merchant who has been greatly
benefitted by Joy's Vegetable Sarxaparilla, desired
to give it to his wife, who was very delicate, but
jut of caution first consulted his physician. Dr.
W. H. Griswold of 850 Market street Tbedoctor,
who Is one of our leading practitioners objected,
laying he had never seen a sarsaparilla that did
not contain potash, which thinned the blood;
that his patient did not have any vitality to lose,
and that what delicate people need Is not de
creased vitality, but more blood. He consented
when assured that Joy's Vegetable EarsopanUa
was directly opposed to the old mistaken blood
thinning idea of other sarsapariUas, aud that on
the contrary by specific vegetable a'tcratives It
stimulated the excretory organs, promoted diges
tiou, and repaired nutrition, hence i reatcd i;c.v
blood aud was the very thing for feeble it-o;:e.
The above explains the hundreds of eases in
which aged, enfeebled, delicate and run down
people, have been built up by Joy's Vegetable
Sarsaparilla after tbe potash sarsaparillas failed.
Its effects are creating a sensation. & f.

A Lung Tester.

The I'ye's devil says he don't want a
Marysville girl for a lung tester. At a
party down there a few nights ago one of
the broad-shouldered, deep-chested shingle
mill boys invited a young lady to hit bim in
the breast in order to test bis lungs. She
said she was left-handed, had beeu washing
that day, and was tired and did not feel
very active, but at his urgent request she
let go at him. When his friem's went to
pick him np, he said he thought he would
die easier lying down. Be had lost al
recollection of having any lung", but the
youug woman consoled him by admitting
that she did not bit him as bard as she
might have done, because she rather liked
him. Tbe mill is said to have run short

entered np by tbe attorneys for tbe city, it
would seem a just inquiry why they hi ve
let the interests of the city go in such a

after tbe entering of such judgment, to
take an appeal. Had it been at once en

it could have been tried at the spring term,
