Miss Alma Pohl, of Astoria, is visiting her sister, Mrs. J. Wiley, in this city. Mr. E. N.' Chandler, of Wamic, has been in the city for the past two days. - Pleasant showers of rain latt night and this morning make the air fresh and bracing. The 4th. of duly was celebrated at Hood River; but one -especial feature . was that the only United States flag was ' a diminutive one at the top of a forty foot flag-statt The name of the insane man on the cars Monday morning, who was taken in charge by the officers in this city, was John Mur- Shy, and came from Portland. He was ad icted to the opium habit. . Mr. Cbas. L. Richmond has a wagon ette for the purpose of carrying passen gers to and from the depot to any part of the city. This will be a great conveni ence to oar citizens. There was a regular meeting of the council last night at the council cham bers. After receiving the message of the mayor and approving the bonds of the city officers the council adjourned. Mr. Harry H. Walker, who has been away from the city lor several years, re turned last Thursday. For some time Barry has been railroading in Montana, Wyoming and Washington, and looks well and hearty. Bait Oregonian: At the last general electioa the vote for representative in Wallowa county was a tie between Barnes (Dem.) and Oowan (Rep). At tbepecial election held last Monday the same candidates ran again and Barnes was elected over Gowan iy twenty-three majority. The East Oregonian says that Zick Abra ham, a jtwclry drummer en route from Og. den to Portland on Saturday night's fast mail, left his cat for a few minutes at Pen dleton. When he returned he found that his valise, containing about $180, was miss ing. The officers were notified, but could - not find the thieves, who were probably hoboes, always on the look out for such snaps, snd are now in some other town en joying the fruits of their olever roguery. Mr.' James B. Crosncn, who has served in the capacity of postmaster in this city for the past four years with great credit to him self and general satisfaction to the public, was inducted into the office of clerk of Wasco county yesterday. His predecessor, Mr. Geo. H. Thompson, has a most excel lent reputation for courtesy to visitors, and we are satisfied Mr. Crossen will not, in the least, allow sny deterioration in this re spect. He has been an excellent post master, and we beheye he will be equally as good county clerk. ' Mr. Sam'l L. Brooks banded us the following, hich he fonnd posted np in almost every depot in trie east: "City Ordinance No. . It Is unlawful for minors to lounge, loiter or play around, alongside of or upon any railroad track, platform, or cling, step, jump or stand open, or in any way attach himself to any locomotive, engine or car, either standing or .in motion, etc. The penally for the violation is not more tuan $200 or )esa than f 100." It would be a good thing, as Mr. Brooks suggests. It sucu an erdiaance was in force in this city. The votes cast yesterday resulted in the THE DALLES LAND and IMPROVEMENT Choke Lots . facias 'i'iij.t .": election of Messrs. L C. Nickelsen and C. L. Phillips, as water commissioners, and they are understood to be in favor of pur chasing the old plant and opposed to the pumping, system. But this makes little difference, as the council have placed them selves on record in favor of pumping, and as they have the controlling power they will carry this scheme out. In so doing they will receive the hearty endorsement of all those who are not under the domination of the old water company or the flume com pany, who have a seven years' lease from The Dalles Mill and Water Co. A Spokane Falls dispatch announces that a large gang of horse thieves have been op erating in Eastern Washington for the past week. The method of their operations in dicates that they have a regularly organized band with a leader. A few days ago they took 500 head of horses toward the British Columbia line through the Flathead Indian country. A Walla Walla farmer reports a loes of fifty head. ' Tbey were traced to within a few miles of Spokane Falls. Wm. Davis, of Cheney, lost a stallion for which he recently paid $1200. A large number of ranchers organized for pursuit of the thieves, but with little hope of success, as they have a good start. . Among the many causes that have con spired to make a scarcity of money not only in Portland, but througbont the state, says the Welcome, not the least is the scarcity of beet cattle, a sufficiency of which heretofore has been owned by Oregon farmers. It has been said by those conversant with the stock and beet business that in the past year at least $1,000,000 which shonld have been held in Oregon was forwarded to California for fat beef. One firm alone has paid in freight on cattle for the past five months $100,000. For fat beef in California Portland butchers haye paid S cents per pound and with the addition of lreigbt, yet tbey buy cheaper than they can at borne, where good beef cattle are held at five cents. When this market is mentioned Western Washington and Vic toria must be considered in, since Port land supplies there sections with four fifths of their beef. Mr. Henry Hudson has just come in from bis ranch on Chrisman Hollow. He reports excellent crops in his neighbor hood, the cool, cloudy weather producing the happiest effects upon the maturing grain. Mr.- Hudson informed our re porter that the people around Eight Mile are in a great state of excitement over the fact that A. J. Wall has just received a private ttlegram from the Oregon dele gation, informing him that an amend ment has been, made to the river and harbor bill appropriating $25,000 for im proving Eight Mile creek from its mouth to the Spotted Crow Hotel, which is In tended to be the bead of navigation. When the improvement of the creek is accomplished, Mr. Wall intends to have a line of pleasure boats between the Spotted Crow and The Dalles; and the same gentleman, with the enterprise to characteristic of him, swears, that if the people of the Dalles don't soon build that line of opposition boats, he will run his boats to Portland and Astoria with out calling at The Dalles at all. From WedneadarsDaUf. The arc lights will be in operation after to-day. There is every indication of good crops in this county the coming harvest. What is the matter with the street cars which should have started July 1st? Miss JCdith Spofford, of Boise City, is visiting Miss Grace Swank in this city.

Wiley can e seen the place where the old Methodist Mission buildings stood in 1847. The banks of 'earth am still dis cernible, marking the foundation walla of me nrst structures ever erected in this vicinity. ;.. C. H. Hewitt, a prominent attorney of Portland, was' shot and killed at Sell wood yesterday by Chaa. Bellegrade, who, after wards committed suicide. The trouble which caused the tragedy originated in the fact that Hewitt was attorney for Belle grade's wife, - who bad filed her complaint for a divorce : The remains of the two men were brought; to Portland in the patrol wagon after the inquest had been held. Astorian: Three mules and a sick cow showed to 75 children in a tent in the courthouse yjird yesterday. The outfit gave that as a one w performance." It calls itself the "New "York Circus." The proprietor carries all his money In his ear. Look out for him. He offered the Aatorian an advertisement and a stack of tickets last Sunday but to no avail. He gets th!s send off for nothing. A very agreeable and enthusiastic 4th of July celebration was held at Lyle, Wash., about seven miles west of the city. We are informed that Hon. E. B. Dufur delivered the oration, and made one of the ablest addresses ever ' delivered on such an occasion. -The enthusiasm of the people knew no bounds.and as the speaker Inished the oration -with an eloquent peroration on American Institutions, they literally made the air wild with applause. One day last week, says the Chronicle, a little girl, belonging to a poor family liv ing in Spokane Falls, was struck by light ning while helping todo up the family washing, and blinded and otherwise dis figured for life. There also lives in the same town a man who beat his wife and abused his children until the authorities were compelled to take cognizance of his actions. We have this to say. The hand that fired that lightning was a mighty poor marksman. ' Albany Democrat: Mr. Palmer, residing near the M.

The physician at La Grande removed some cinders from the eye, but it gave bim ao tnooh pais that he consulted Portland physioisna, who on examination found the steel, and advised removing the injured member as inflamma tion had set in and the eye had become fes tered.

It was between eijrnt ana ten thousand feet above the earth, and still upright when first seen. As it passed over the town the air ship was noticed, to be slowly turning, and when it was apparently about over Russell creek a dense cloud of smoke was seen to ascend from its mouth. It is surmised that the object -seen, was Professor Lang's balloon, with . which he was advertised to make an ascension Mon day at Weston. As it was passing over the city, several of the spectators -thought they could see something banging from one edge, but whether a man or not could not be told.

While Hiram White and other miners were recently prospecting nesr the bead of Nye creek, eight miles southeast from Quartzville, they discovered two old log cabins, one !Sx30 and the other smaller. Iu the first waa found two kegs of powder and three sacks of floor, both in a perfect state of preservation, except a small depth of the flour next to the sacks the interior being sweet and good.
