A meeting of the members of the Third
Regiment band was held last evening, and
they came to the conclusion that three or four
more names would be necessary before the

expected that the members will give an en

pose of purchasing instruments, nearly all
of which were burned during the recent

East Oregonian: Athena is a trifle excited,
according to reports, over a little difficulty
between two ladies of that city, wbich
ended Monday in a personal encounter.

In the debris of tbe slight blaze in the
unoccupied room on Front street this
morning, we picked up a photograph of
Hon. W. H. Newell, the first editor of the
Mouhtatnrek, from 1861 to 180, which
Mr. Otis Bayage kindly presented us,
and it now adorns our sanctum. We de
sire very much to match this with the
pictures of the other editors of this paper,
who have at different times occupied the
position for over thirty years past.
One year ago, says the Dayton Courier,
Benjamin McGill purchased a farm of
two hundred acres near Dayton, paying
therefore flrViO per acre. . This year be
sold $0000 of wheat alone, which had
been raised on tbe place, to say nothing
of a large quantity of the best quality of
hay Mr. McGill's entire wheat crop
averaged forty-five bushels to tbe acre.
How does this strike the average farmer
in other sections of the country t There
is no "boom talk" about this item, as the
facts can be substantiated.
No freight trams, we are informed, ar
rived in The Dalles from Alblna, since
last night until 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The trouble was caused bv a strike of the
switchmen in tbe AJbina yards, because
all crews were worked every Sunday, and
the men wanted only half of them to
work on tbese days and the other half ot
them to rest. Our informant says tbe
switchmen were successful, and hereafter
a moiety of them will have Sunday while
the others work, and these will work the
next Sunday and the remainder rest.
At the meeting of the portage railroad
commission yesterday the only matter
taken into consideration was the rate
charged over the portage road. As two
of the board had already approved the
schedule of rates, the remaining member
could do nothing but acquisce. As re
gards the charges against buperint Ldent
Farley .which were not presented in proper
shape, consideration of them was not bad
at this meeting. Mr. Farley signified his
intention ot resigning on or before the 1st
day of November.

ing a Washington l.ity reporter the old
story that "every effort possible will be
made to secure tbe opening or tbe Columbia
river. v bile we are not aisposea to ex
press any doubt of the senator's sincerity,
yet the wearisome and miserable failure at
the Cascades is a standing reproach more
forcible than speech or written censure, of
the methods so far employed, ixive us an
other portage road above Tbe Dalles, and
then proceed with the river work the best
way possible.
Very many obi residents of The Dalles

be hopelessly involved. The indebtedness
against it is about $37,000 and nearly all
this bas accumulated within the last aeyen
years. The only income received is from
the lease of tbe Springfield water power,
$1800 per year, and of this it requires at
least $800 to keep the power in repair.

W. F. Heath, president of the Music
Teachers' National Association, beld at
Philadelphia, 1S89, writes to tbe Press after
hearing the Norwegian violinist, August
Aamold: "He is an artist of the highest
grade. He ' plays on a yiolin valued at
$5000. To say that his playing is in keep
ing with the quality of his violin is only
stating the troth. His technique is clear,
his tone is of a rare and tine quality beyond
description, aud his interpretation is of that
dreamy, and at other times brilliant, quali
ty not often heard from the same artist.
The true artist is distinguished from the
mechanical or imitative musician by the
individuality of his playing, which is pe
culiar to himself, and it is this individuality
that always charms an audience."
Dr. Harry Lane waa not re-elected as
superintendent of the insane asylum be
cause he failed to receive tbe vote of Gov.
Peonoyer, and, as a matter of course, be
feels angry at his excellency. By the wvy
he uses "classic English" in the following
excerpt, speaking of Gov. Peonoyer, we
are inclined to believe he would fill a long-
felt want on the editorial staff ot some of
our esteemed cotemporaries: "For the
small boy manipulator who has dickered
with the devil and thrown down his friends
until his day is past and no man trusts him
more; for tbe more prominent state official
who would willingly unload all the dunder
heads and unshackled rogues in Christen
dom upon an institution provided for the
care of the miserable viotims of the saddest
phase of human suffering; who aims to
make tthe asvlum the roosting place for
everv dead boat and bum who has served
bim at the polls; who will not fight fair but
will insinuate a calumny he dares not as
art. and with half a lie will smother a
truth; for this gentleman, bis religion ana
hi Ktvlp at politics. I feed and fatten a
contempt which is beyond my power to ex
press.

Our iob presses have been kept busy for
several weeks blling orders tor 100 wora,
and still tbey continue to come in. We
have employed as good and artistis a job
printer as there is in the state of Oregon,
and all orders will receive prompt attention
The buildings now being erected in the
burnt district are giving employment to
large number of men. With high pricea
for our wheat crop, notwithstanding the
fire, The Dalles should be a lively poiiit for
trade this fall and the coming winter.

70.000. He bas met with no accidents to
speak of.
Prineville News: J. H. Claypool has sold
bis ranch situated at a point where the
Oregon Pacific survey crosses the Deschutes

for the railroad company or a private specu
lation we are nnabla to say.
A 16 year-old aon of Mr. Peter Agidius,

The father of a frail, consumptive Con
necticut girl who wanted to attend a dance,
sent her in a carriage with two servants,
but made her put a pedometer in her
pocket. When she got home in the morn
ing it indicated that she bad danced enough
to coyer thirty-one miles in a straight line.
If such a girl were asked to help her poor,
tired mother wash dishes she would have
too bad a headache.
The Opera Eating House is certainly be
coming the popular place to eat, if one can
judge by tbe looks of the dining-room at
meal time. Mr. lirabam certainly deserves
all the patronage of our people for the way
he caters to tbe public. Xoa will always
find all the luxuries of the season on his
tables, such as oysters, game and fish. Billy
and his gong are immense.
Mr. Saltmarshe's stockyards shipped
fourteen carloads of cattle last night to the
ruget sound Dressed Meat (Jo., at Meeker,
Wash., and one to Eist Portland. Tbe
night before there were six carloads of cat
tle and one of hogs sent to Portland. Busi
ness bas been in a very lively way for the
past few days, aud the prospects are good
for this to continue.
Our attention has been called to the fact
that the streets in tbe burned district are
covered with nails, and these are dangerous
to t;. feet of horses. Mr. A. Buchler bas
a i of steel brushes which he will permit
Y street commissioner to use to sweep
these out of the way of horses. Valuable
animals may be crippled by these nails, and
this matter should receive immediate atten
tion. . -
According to the Huntington Herald it
is reported that a rich strike haa been made
in tbe Connor Creek mine. For tbe past
several months a lower tuunel has been in
progress to tap the ore vein lower down the
mountain and if the reported rich strike
proves correct the Connor Creek will main
tain tbe distinction of being one of the
greatest bullion producing mints of the
northwest.
Union licout: We notice several of our
exchanges giving accounts of bears visiting
orchards . and coming down into town in
many places throughout tbe state, and in
this case Union is not behind. Oo Sunday
night last a large black bear made its ap
pearance oh our streets, presumably in
seaach of something to et. It was seen by
only one or two parties and no attempt .waa
made to kill it.
Salmon are taKen with the hook and line
quite frequently off the mouth ot the Co
lumbia river and just inside, and the tug
boat men have been enjoying rare sport for
the past two weeks. A twenty-pound sal
mon in tbe full enjoyment of all his facul
ties, can make more fun on the end of a
line than anything that wears fins and
scales. Crouper and rock cod are found in
considerable numbers when tbe tugboat
men have time to look for them.
Klickitat Sentinel: Monday night this
part of the county was visited by a slight
shower of rain. The wind waa along, too,
to direct things. To one safely and secure
ly housed and in bed, tbe rattle of the rain
drops on the roof and against the windows
was enough to make him imagine the coun
ty was being visited by tbe tail end of a
Kansas cyclone. During all the day of
Tuesday the wind blew from the west, and
made a warm stove rather acceptable.
At a called meeting last night sidewalks
were ordered to be constructed on Second

The Northern Pacific Company is taking
np the old switchback over tbe summit of
the Cascades, and thus one of the most in
teresting feats of railroading in the' north
west will soon be obliterated. . While the
Cascades were being tunneled for a passage
way for trains, this switchback was con
stneted to accommodate the trad j. It trav
ersed the mountain for oyer eight miles in
order to reach a certain poiut on the oppo
side of tbe mountains, barely two miles
away. Tbe great Stampede tunnel nnder
tbe pass is uea.ly two miles in length, and
is the second largest in the United States.
An Edison dynamo furnishes light to 200
incandescent lamps for the illumination of
the tunnel at all times.
Mr. T. T. Turner, formerly W. U. T
operator in this city, died at his home in
Jacksonville yesterday .evening. He was
aged about 24 years, and waa a most exem
plary young man. - There was no one who
had more friends than Mr. Turner, as he
was always amiable, accommodating and
unselfish. During the time Mr. Turner re
sided in The Dalles he had a long list
of acquaintances,, and his sudden death
will cause a wave of sorrow to pass
over this community. .Last winter
be suffered from la grippe, and this finally
developed into consumption, from which he
died. A young man, in the prime of life,
full of vigor and ambition, it ia sad that he
should be consigned to an early grave.
Coquille Herald,Sept 22d: The Coos Bay
Koheburg railroad company is pushing its
work as fast as the weather will permit.
For a week or more past sho we s have fallen
and greatly interfered. Yet the bridges
nave been advanced beyond expectation,
and the work is pronounced rarely good
and substantial. The first bridge west of
this place, a short distance west of the cor
poration line, something over 100 feet in
length, is completed, as are also most of the
bridges and culverts on the line. Track
laying is now tbe or'er of the day, while
the construction camps will move to-day or
to-morrow, weather permitting, east of this
city and prosecute the work eastward to
ward Myrtle Point. Now, ye croakers,
look something out, and don't get in the
way of the engine. .

A Soldier's Death.
From the Baker City Democrat of yester
day we leain the following particulars ot
the death of Sergt. Gnrney, of Troop C, 4th
Cavalry, whiln eu route from Walla Walla
to Fort Bid well, Cut.:
Troop C passed through this city about
2 o'clock Monday afternoon and about one
hour later tbe Dews was brought to town
that one of the soldiers had been poisoned
and his condition was critical. A Demo
crat representative went to tbe scene and
found the unfortunate man lying on a aol
diei'a cot inside the house attended by Dr.
Moncneff, army surgeon, assisted by sev
eral of the sick man's comrades who were
doing all in their power to save his life. A
stomach pump was applied 'and everything
possible resorted to but to no avail, and
Sergt. Gnrney died at about 7 o'clock.
The particulars of tbe sad event are to
the effect that on Sunday evening Sergt.
Gurney complained of having colic or
cramps, and Dr. Moncrieff prescribed mor
phine. The next morning, according to the
physician's statement to the reporter, and
before Ieaviug camp at North Powder, the
patient again complained of feeling badly
and Dr. Moncrieff took his scales from bis
medicine chest and weighed out one grain
of morphine. He .gave the patient a hy
podermic injection of one-fourth of a grain
and put the remaining three-fourths of a
train np into powders of one-fourth of a
grain each, instructing the patient how to
use them. On tbe way np from North Pow
der the patient rode in the ambulance
wagon attended by his side at intervals by
tbe physician on horseback. Nothing seri
ous iu the patient's condition waa indicated
until the company arrived at the King
place, when upon examining the pulse of
Sergt. Gurney, the physician became
alarmed and ordered the ambulance halted
and the patient removed into the house.
From all the evidence gathered by the
reporter the death of Sergt. Gurney was the
result of his own carelessness. Undoubt
edly if be had adhered to the instructions
given him by the surgeon no serious results
would have followed. Tbat he' could have
taken tbe medicine with suicidal intent is
not entertained in the least by his comrades,
who say that he never indicated in any way
any such purpose.
They Are After Sim.
Oregonian, Tuesday.
' In tbe Oregonian of tbe 22d there ap
peared a letter con taining serious charges
against Superintendent Farley, of tbe
portage railway at the Cascade Locks.
Governor Pennoyer.who is responsible for
tbe appointment of Farley, alone started
out to make an layestigation. As a result
of that invei'tigation, tbe governor, in an
Interview, stated that be found tbat tbe
charges were greatly exaggerated, and he
completely exonerated Superintendent
Farley. This, however, did not satisfy tbe
other two members ct tbe portage railway
commission, Secretary ot State George W.
McBride, sad State Treasurer Pbil
Metscban, wbo want a thorough inves
ligation made. For this purpose a
meeting will be beld at 4:80 o'clock
this a'ternoon. The formal charges against
Superintendent Fariey will be incompe
tency and mismanagement. It is claimed
tbat he bas increased tbe expenditure 01
money about $5000, doing unnecessary
work, and some say that this sum will
each $10,000,as all of the books of Super
intendent Farley are iu the bands of the
portage commission, a thorough investi
gation of his expenditures can be made.
Tbe freight rates established by Super
intendent Farley across tbe portage will
also be investigated. Several shippers
who have shipped goods across the port
age will refuse to pay the freightage in
order to test tbe legality of Farley's
freight schedule. Tbey claim tbat bit
rates are in exceai of tbe state legis
lature It is intimated tbat tbe portage
commi-sion will let Superintendent Far
ley nut on tbe ground of general incom
petency. - .
Tbe portage railroad at the Cascades is
already being operated on a small scale by
means of tbe government locomotive in
Use by tbe employes ol the road several
hours per day Some fruit ard potatoes
are coming down, and em ill lots of mer
chandise going up. There is no wharf
boat at the npper end or the road yet
Tbe lower incline will be finished in a
few days, and when tbe locomotive
ordared for the road arrives, the busi
ness of the road will probably be begun
in earnest.
' An Interesting Book.
The well-known writer and historian, Mr.
J. W. Buel, author of "Tbe Beautiful
Story," "The Story of Man," "The Living
World," "Russia and Siberia," etc., has
just completed what is probably the great
est of his works, entitled "Heroes of Un
known Seas and Savage Lands." Tbe work
is a complete record of the discovery of all
lands, and contains descriptions of the first
visits made by Europeans to the wild races
of the world. The descriptions of tbe so
perstitious appertaining to the sea and tbe
obstacles which strange beliefs opposed to
extended voyages are most interesting and
instructive. The work also comprises an
authentic history of tbe discovery of Amer
ica by the Viking Sea-Rovers, and its set
tlement by the Scandinavians in the ninth
century. It is supplemented with thrilling
narratives of voyages, discoveries, adven
tures, battles, darings and sufferings of all
tbe heroic characters and bold explorers
who have made ocean history, and who
have established supremacy over the most
savage lands of the earth. Tbe book, which
is a most instructive and entertaining one
from cover to cover, contains 600 large
quarto pages, and ia embellished with more
than 300 original engravings and several
large double-page colored plates, drawn es
pecially for the work by tbe most famous
artists of the day. It is elegantly bound,
aud is a book whicb should certaiuly find 1
place in every family.
The Dominion Publishing Co., of Van'
couver, British Columbia, are the general
agents for the work, and their advertise

Oregon's Assessment,
Telegram.
J. W Snekon, cnairman of tbe State
Board of Equalization, has written a letter
to the various boards of county cemmission-
' ers, asking them to postpone the levy of
county taxes until alter the state board bas
finished its work of equalization, which
will not be nntil some time in December.
He also desires information as to the basis
upon which the various assessors assess
property of various kinds and tbe percentum
they deduct from actual values. That is,
ne wishes to know to what extent tbe as
sessors violate the law and their own oaths,
which require them to assess all property at
its full value.
There seems to be, nnder the law which
allows a county assessor to appoint as many
deputies as he needs, no need of this delay
in returning the assessment rolls. In most
of the counties assessors are granted ex
tensions of from one to three months, and
tbe assesment rolls come straggling along
weeks and months after the time provided
by law for their return. The per diem sys
tem of pay is probably largely responsible
for this. Assessors are naturally a good
deal like government engineers, when they
have a good job they want it to last as long
as possible.
Tbe State Board of Equalization has a
very important work before it, one tbat if
it is well done will arouse much criticism
and censure; but they were not pnt in im
portant office to please the tax-dodgers, the
mossbacks and law violators. Oregon's
assessment is a scandal at home and a shame
and a reproach abroad.
A Domestic Fiend at Eugene.
A Eugene dispatch states that Saturday
evening a climax was reached in an old
and aggravated tend between T. E. Rus
sell and the Gray family, which is the re
sult of the divorce granted Russell's wife,
who is the daughter of J. G Gray. J. C.
Gray, a brother of Russell'sdivorced wife,
is now lying in a critical condition with
his skull crushed by a blow from Russell
with a bar 01 iron. It seems the court in
.granting the divorce gave to the woman
the two children and has since forbidden
Russell from calling on them. Russell,
however, has a strong affection for the
children, and has tried to be with them
as much as possible. Saturday evening
as J. C. Gray was walking down the
street with the little boy, he met Russell,
who stopped and kissed the boy, and was
fondling him when Gray told him to de
sist. Gray is a cripple and walks with a
cane, and when Russell did not desist he
struck him with the cane. A lively fight
ensued, in which Russell struck Gray on
the head with a bar of iron, which he pro
cured at a foundry near by, crushing the
skull and inflicting a dangerous wound.
Russell also was considerably hurt, but
not seriously. He is now in jail without
the privilege of bail on a charge of as
sault with intent to kill. This is the
culmination of a protracted row over
children. Russell will be held until the
result of Gray's injuries is known.
A most peculiar robbery is reported in
the Pendleton East Oregonian last Monday
evening: Miss Emma Duffy, an industri
ous young lady who was employed as
waitress at M. Gratz' restaurant, has an
up-stairs room at the rear of the associa
tion block. She had $350 in her posses
sion, representing a year or two of hard
work. Also a gold watch, chain and
locket, and a diamond ring. Part of the
money, which she had loaned, was lately
returned. She intended to put it in the
bank tbe first of the month, and in the
meantime hit upon a clever place of con
cealment Removing the head from a
doll, she put the wealth in the head,
sewed it back on the body, and placed
the doll in her trunk. "No one will think
that's a very valuable doll," she thought
with inward satisfaction. But someone
aid. Emma left her room to go to work
at 5 o'clock Monday afternoon. There is
a railing and stairway at the back of the
building, and a window offers an easy en
trance into the room. When she returned
at 8 o'clock she found the window open
and the contents of her trunk turned top
gy turvy, the doll decapitated, and the
money and jewelry gone. The next
morning, about 7 o'clock, in tbe yard was
found $192 in gold and greenbacks, and
later in the day the ring and wach were
also picked up. No clue to the robbery
is Known ; but it must have been com
mitted by some one acquainted with the
premises. '
Goldendale Sentinel: We bayt no donbt
n the world but sugar cane could be made
a paying industry in Klickitat county. A
specimen hill of sorghum brought into the
Sentinel office by Mr. W. T. Darch bears us
ont in tbe assertion that it will grow abun
dantly. - Mr. Darch thought the seed to be
reddish when he planted tbem (the seed re
sembling rsddish) and of course expected to
raise raddishes. Bat when ha found it was
"corn" of some kind, he felt provoked, bat
concluded to let the stuff be, and allow it
to shift for itself. He paid no more atten
tion to it, not even irrigating it as it should
have been. It was not nntii it began to
tassel and show signs of being sugar cane did
be realize its menu It waa raised on wht
is known as tbe "Burn," east of Rock
creek, in this county.
Astoria Totm Tali: Several friends of T.
O'Donnell came to the Tali office yesterday
and stated tbat he had been musing since
Sunday night and that it waa their opinion
that he had been shanghaied on the British
ship Melanope, that is now lying at Sand
island waiting a chance to get to sea. A
7'alk reporter at once proceeded to investi
gate matters, and after much inquiry traced
np the following particulars: "Mr. O'Don
nell is a son of F. J. O'Donnell, of Dunkirk,
New York, who runs a large manufactur
ing establishment in that city, and is also
one of tha most prominent citizens of the
place. T. O'Donnell left New York last
May and came to the coast, but has been in
Astoria but a few weeks. For the past few
days he has been working on the foundation
of Mrs. Badollet's new building on the cor
uer of Main aud Second streets. Saturday
night when he received his pay he went out
on a little time and got nnder the influence
of liquor, keeping his spree np until late
Sunday night, since whicb time he has not
been seen but ouce, at wbich time he was in
bad hands, wbich confirmed the opinion of
O Donnell'a friends that he had been Bhang
haied or kept out of sight for future use.

n-ast uregoman: A ripple of excitement
was occasioned at Pilot Rock by an episode
whicb occurred there a few days ago. A
young man who was desperately in love
with a Pilot Rock young lady returned re
cently from Montana to find that another
admirer had supplanted him "cut him
out," in fact. He called on the object of
his affection, who saw him coming and went
out at the back door. He followed and

cape. She said she was going to a neigh

finally fired three shots, none of which took
effect. He theu started on a search for his
rival, whom he found and struck at with
the pistol, but hit Mr. Rogers, the Piolot
Rock store-keeper, by mistake. Much ex
citement was the result, no complaint waa
brought against the foolish young man, and
he escaped arrest.
Herald- The steamer Norma, bnilt in
isyu to ply upon tbe snake river be 'ween
Huntington bridge and the Seven Devils
mining country, was sold at sheriffs sale on
Saturday last, to Captain W. P. Gray, of
rortiana. tor $4UU0. Executions and at
tachments to the amount ot S12.000 had
been issued against the boat out of the
Multnomah county circuit court. Denntv
Sheriffs Trayillion and Hannon conducted
tbe sale and got every dollar possible under
the circumstances. Jacob Kamm will in all
probability get the boat, as it is generally
understood that Captain Gray bought it
witn Jo-amm a money. As usual in such
cases somebody gets left, $8000 of execu
tions and attachments being entirely worth
less. Among tnose fortunate enough to se
cure payment of their claims is J. F. Fyfer,
$1000, and U. F. Kent, the ship's carpenter.
about $600. What will become of tbe
Norma we do not know oositivelv. but
from indications we believe she drill be
taken down tbe Snake into the Columbia
with the next years rise of water.
It is understood on tbe basis of un
official reports from Washington that
among other things tbe administration
bas under consideration tbe acquisition
of tbe is'and of St. Thomas, in the
West ladies, which now belongs to
Denmark, as a naval station. Naval
officers appear to be agreed as to tbe im
portance ot the United States bavin? a
naval station in the group of islands
which command the entry to tbe Gulf
of Mexico and the approaches to the
Mississippi and the isthmus, whether it
e the island of St. Thomas or some
other. Tbe question as to the necessity
of such an acquisition is one to he def
ter mined by tbe naval and military au
thorities, and it is one about wbich there
should- be no controversy on party
grounds.
