A dastardly attempt to burn the

Monday. A lot of cord wood stacked
in front of the cannery was ingnigbted,

Mr. Herrick sleeps in the cannery,
and was awakened by the noise of the
flames, but at first supposed it to be
falling rain, but hearing some one cry
fire, ran out and discovered the wood
on fire. He and J. S. Brown, the en

blowing from the west, carrying the
flames past the building. Had it been
from the south, the cannery would
have been doomed. The would-be in

by a motive of pure cussedness and a
desire to destroy property, for nothing
could be gained by burning the can

he has no enemy living who would
thus seek to injure him. ,

OUB NA PAL DAY.
Bow It Was Celebrated Throughout TCasoo
County.
The 120th anniversary of American
independence was pretty generally ob
served throughout the county, though
no particular demonstration was made
in The Dalles, however a number of
Dalles people joined in the festivities
at other places. The principal places
at which exercises were held were
Dufur, Hood River, Mosier, Antelope
and Kingsley, though reports from the
last two places have not been received,
but it is presumable that patriotism
prevailed at every point where celebra
tions were held.
THE CELEBRATION AT DCFUR.
The pleasant iittle city ' on
Fifteen-vile had a two-days' celebra
tion, commencing on Friday and clos
ing on Saturday afternoon. The
afternoon of the 3d was devoted to
racing and athletic sports, one of the
main features being a ball game be
tween the Dufur and Ramsey nines,
which was hotly contested, and re
sulted in a victory for Dufur, in a score
of 15 to 13.
Tbe two-mile bicycle race was won
by Walter Brigham, of Uufur. and the
mile race by Charlie Heppner, of The
Dalles.
The first horse race was a 300-yard
dash, in which there were three en
trees, Glavey's Nellie Green,' James'
mare G. L. and Bolton's Red JacKet.
Nellie Green won the first prize and L.
G. the second. The most interesting
race was the 2o0 yard dash for ponies'.
The entries were Moloney's Cricket,
James, Little Pete, Montgomery's Jim,
Allen's Ted and Davidson's Nellie.
Little Pete took " the lead from the
start, and never looked back until he
was safe under the wire, while Jim
made a good second. Then there was
a 250-yard race for non-winners, in
which Allen's-Ted was victorious over
Maloney's Cricket and Davidson's
Nellie
After the races were over the pleas
ure of the first day was concluded with
a errand ball, participated in by 67
couples.
The morning of the Fourth opened
fair and bright and Dufur was in her
best holiday attire. At an early hour
people began arriving from every di
rection and congregating at tbe
spaciouB grove just above the town
and when President of the Day Hin
man arose to announce the program,
he was greeted by a throng of fully
1000 people. A number of patriotic
airs were 'rendered by the Dufur band
and national melodies sung by the
glee club, when H. S. Turner, editor
of the Dispatch, was introduced and
read that grand old document, the
Declaration of Independence. Then
there was more music, which was fol
lowed ly a patriotio and able oration
delivered by Rev. T..J. Merrill. The
forenoon's entertainment was closed
with appropriate - music, when the
assemblage was invited to partake of
the barbecue prepared by Prof. A.
Frazer: The meat was delicious, cook
ed to the ''queen's-taste," as it were,
and by unanimous consent Prof. Frazer j
was declared perfect as superintendent
of barbecues.
The afternoon was devoted to
numerous athletic sports, foot races,
egg and sacH races, jumping, etc.,
and furnished sufficient amusement
to convince - all of the patriotism
and life that pervades Dufur and
vicinity.
MOSIER'S PICNIC.
The people of Mosier contented
themselvos with a real - old fashioned
picnic, where all took their lunch bas
kets, well filled of course, and devoted
their time to eating and general socia
bility, interspersed with music and the
reading of the Declaration of Indepen
dence, followed by a ball In the even
Ing. The celebration was by no means
pretentious, but nevertheless it was
pleasant, 'and was well enjoyed by all
who assembled ' in memory of the
nation's anniversary.
THE EXCURSION TO HOOD RIVER
. An event that was most pleasant to a
large number of residents of this city
was the excursion to Hood River given
by The Dalles Coneert Band. At 8
o'clock : on the morning of the
Fourth the Regulator left her dock
with 232 Dallesites on board, and
with the strain of classic music wafted
upon the air, a pleasant ride down the
river was experienced. Arriving at
Hood River, the band gave a concert
in front of tbe Mt. Hood hotel,-after
which all proceeded to the ball grounds
to witness a contest on the diamond
between a picked nine from this city
and the Hood Riyer players Both
sides put up an excellent game until
the seventh inning, when a misun
derstanding arose (nobody appeared
to know just what it was or how it
happened) but in less than no Jime
the ball grounds were turned into a
battle field,, and the players tumbled
over each other, depicting the
scenes of two crack, teams of some
of tbe leading colleges at foot ball,
Nobody heeded the command of -the
Umpire to "play ball," and the game
was declared off, with the score stand
ing 13 to 13.. It was a most unfortunate
affair, heartily regretted by all, but
could probably not have been averted.
Barring the little unpleasantness this
occasioned, nothing occurred' to mar
the happiness of the day. Many of The
Dalles people took lunches .with .them
and enjoyed 'their ' dinners under the
numerous shades in 'and about Hood
Rivet1, while others partook of the hos
pitality of -the genial Charlie Bell of
the Mt. Hood; ' On the return' trip the
band again rendered a number of fine
selections,' and by the time tbe boat
arrived at The Dalles 'all on board
were in excellent humor, having for-
gotton tbe unpleasant termination of
the ball game.
In -the evening the Regulator made
another trip down the river aDout ten
miles, carrying some 150 who had re
mained in the city during the day, and
furnishing a pleasant termination of a
pleasant day. - '

The Skeleton of Young Girl tTnearthed
- at Cascade Iiocks.
Seventeen years ago a young girl,
between Itfand 18 years of age, by the
name of Sullivan, disappeared; from
Cascade Locks. At the time consider
able 'excitement was -caused by the
disappearance and foul play was sua-
pc ted, but a dilllgent search failing
to reveal any trace of the missing girl
or any clew to her: whereabouts, and
as years rolled by, the incident was
forgotten." . 'It was scarcely ever
thought of except by the pioneers of
that place; and would likely have
never'been mentioned bad pota silent
evidence of what onoe was a human
being been discovered at the stone
qntrr oim 500 yards south of the
town of Cascade Locks one day last
week. Louie Comini. proprietor of
The Dalles Marble works, was quar
Tifff granite for his establishment,
when he found, carefully stowed away
in a caye under a large bowlder,- a
human skeleton. The bones were in
a reclining position, and were intact,
but all semblance of clothing and
flesh had disappeared, but a slip of
newspaper, on which was still visible,
"Chicago, 1879," was found, though
the other printing on the paper was
obliterated, however this was the year
when the girl mysteriously disap
peared, and the bones being shown
to Dr. Day, he pronounced them the
remains of of a female, 15 or 18 years
of age, hence it was concluded that
they were what remains of the missing
girl. -
The Crown of Medical Discovery.
- All the great sciences, arts and phil
osophies have been crowned by some
master hand whose discoveries have
been the finishing touch that makes
perfect the grand fabric of knowledge.
The marvelous discoveries of Dr. Dar
rin of the tremendous potencies of
electricity, for overcoming disease,
constitute the crowning flower of
medical science, and convert what was
once little more than chance into a
science, as exact as mathematics. The
doctor can be consulted by letter or at
his office at the Umatilla House, The
Dalles, Or. to Aug. 1st, free of charge,
regarding the eye, ear, nose, throat,
catarrh, deafness, bronchitis, heart,
liver, bladder, or kidney diseases'; also
concerning all chronic, nervous and
private affections of both sexes, in
cluding female troubles, ect., of which
the doctor is eminently the master.

Ixmg on Theory, Short on Practice.
. An Iowa physician has demonstrated
to his own satisfaction that a man who
has been stiuck by.ligbtening can be
revived by a second application of the
same agency. His patient was a man
who had been " unconscious for ;20
minutes from a stroke in a recent storm,
and who revived at once when he
received a charged from a galvanic
battery. The difficulty in many cases
will be that the victim of lightning
will think he has been killed and there
fore be unequal to the effort required
to reach a point where he can get
struck again, or even receive a the
recuperating current from a battery.
It remains to be proven also that the
patient of the Iowa physician was not.
ready to revive in the ordinary way at
the time tbe battery was applied. The
theory is fascinating, even if incredi
ble, and some further experiments jjUl
be awaited . with interest. Chicago

DEMOCRATS AT CHICAGO
The First Fight Was for Temporary
Chairman.
Silver Men Gain the Battle Hill Turned
Down and Daniels Elected.
Special to Times-Mountaineer. 1
Chicago, July 7. The convention
assembled at 10:30 this morning and
was called to order by Chairman Har
Ity, who submitted the report of the
executive committee, recommending
Senator Hill for temporary chairman.
The report was greeted, with loud
cheers from the gold men, and when
the excitement had died down, Clayton,
of Alabama, moved that the name of
Daniels be substituted for that of Hill.
Clayton's amendment was met with
immense demonstration from the sil
ver men, and a heated dssenssion en
sued. New Jersey and Connecticut
advocated Hill for temporary chairman
and Daniels for permanent.
In the discussion that followed,
Waller, of Alabama, declared thai he
could stand any candidate the conven
tion might name, while the gold men
asserted that all they asked was
fairness, courtesy and the upholding
of democratic precedents, but if Hill
is turned down the eastern democrats
will fight. Thomas, of Colorado, and
Tarpey, of California, came to the sup
port of Daniels, while the New York
delegation was solid in the advocation
of Hill.
The gold men made a point by ques
tioning the consistency of the con
vention in being'willing to accept all
other recommendations of the majority
of tbe national committee, and then
turn down a democrat like Hill.
Chairman Harrity vainly endeavored
to maintain order, and for some time
pandimonium reigned. Marston, of
Louisana, undertook to address the
convention but was prevented by the
uproar. Ladd, of Illinois, finally made
himself heard above the din, advocat
ing Daniels. He said if Hill were
allowed to speak it would keep the
party explaining until the election.
St. Clair, however, took the opposite
view, and believed free discussion
should prevail. "
On the call of states being ordered
on the amendment to substitute
Daniels for Hill, the result was, ayes,
554; noes, 343. The announcement of
the vote caused great cheering,' and
Daniels was escorted to the chair amid
a throng of applause.
In thanking the convention for the
honor conferred upon him. Chairman
Daniels referred to Hill as a great and
able sen tor, and the mention of the
New Yorker's name brought forth
rousing cheers; but when Daniels spoke
in advocacy of the free coinage of sil
ver at the ratio of 16 to 1, the applause
was deafening.
At 4:35, after. Daniels bad ceased
speaking, the call of states for the ap
pointment of committees was ordered,
and the convention adjourned at 4:45
to 10 A. M. tomorrow.

THE MAYOR'S ANNUAL MESSAGE.
A Careful and Able Resume of the Work
of the Council for the Past Tear.
To the Honorable Common Council of
Lalles City:
As we are about to. enter upon
another year's administrate a of city
aifairs, it is proper that we should
have a brief resume of the past year's
business and also outline or forecast
the policy of the council for the corn
inn year. At the beginning 'of the
last fiscal year, July 1, 1895, the city
bad not yet completed the sale of tbe
bonds and tbe principal part of the
old warrants were outstanding and it
is my purpose to compare the cash
balance at the present time and deduct
a conclusion therefrom.
I find from 'examining the annual
report read the first Monday in July,
1895, that the expenses of th city for
the year previous had been $12,186,83,
being a trifle over $1,000 per month
and this without payment of any in
terest. I find fcom the records kept
by the recorder, and as will appear in
bis report, that the past year the ex
penses for city government have been
$6,973.85, or a trifle over one-half what
they were the year previous. Of
course to this we should add the inter
est on bonded debt 83,420, making our
total expenditures including interest,
810,393 85.
We have collected Incomes during
the past year as follows:
Saloon licenses $5,080 00
Taxes 4,519 01
Fines, miscellaneous licenses
and other sources 2,104 95
Total $11,703 96
Less cash exp. including Int. 10,393 85
Balance $ 1.310 11
From the foregoing it will be seen
that we have been able to run tne city
and pay our interest for $1,310.11, less
than the income derived the past year,
a showine1 upon which I can congratu
late the council.
The expenses have been further re
duced for the coming year by discon
tinuing the arc lights, so If the Income
can be kept up to last year's figures,'
we shall very easily be able to have a
still larger surplus at the end of the
coming yea". There is now a balance
on hand, exclusive of the money set'
apart for tbe redemption of warrants,
issued prior to the time when' warrants
were paid by the .treasurer on presen
tation, the sum of $6,940.22.
Still we should not at this time sim
ply congratulate ourselves on business
success, but exercise a vigilant care
for the future. We should watch that
our income does not shrink 'by any
lack of carefulness on the )art of our
officers, and also that our rmbnth-ly
running expenses are not allowed 'to
increase . The system of the past year
of closely scrutenizing every bill, and
closely considering every expense be
fore incurring it, should be continued.
It would be very easy for expenses to
creep up again on us, and instead of
allowing this to be done it is my hope
that in case we have any substantial
surplus we may arrange to use that
surplus in something tending towards
the permanent improvement and ad
vancement of the city.
We must not lose sight of the fact
that on account of very close economy
but little has been done toward tbe
keeping up of the fire department ap
paratus, and I am informed that tbe
purchase of a quantity of new hose and
perhaps some other minor repairs will
be necessary in the near future. '
The light proposition is one which
Is entirely unsettled, and I have never
considered that the question was one
of lights or no lights, but rather what
kind of lights, and what they must cost
us. I heartily approve the action of
the council in discontinuing the ex
pensive arc light, as we could not, in
justice to other matter, continue pay
ing out so much money for arc lights,
alone. The former expense for light
was some'. 8500 or 3600 greater each
year than all of the mouey the city
could collect for taxes 6ver and above
the payment of interest on bonded
debt, and wad out of proportion to any
thing else in the city government.
believe,, however, the council should
take the matter into hand and see
what arrangements can be made for
cheaper system of lighting, so as to be
able by the fall of the year to provid
sufficient light for the safety of the
citizens; but at thesame time seeing
to it tnat tne expense is kept in pro
portion to other expenses of the city
and within our ability to pay.
The question of streetlmprovements
in my opinion should 'have some con
sideratlon at the hands of this council
but by this I do not mean to say that
we should begin an expensive system
of improving, but that the streets
should be cleaned and at least a portion
of the rut holes and sand pits, which
may now be seen In almost evesy por
tion of the city, should be filled. Noth
ing adds to the appearance of a' town
more than well graded ana well kept
streets, and a vast amount of improve'
ment in this respect should be'made at
a very nominal expense either to the
city or the property owners.
A question which will soon confront
us or others In this council and a ques
tion which must be met before long is
that of sewerage. - The present sewer
system Is imperfect and worn out.'
fully appreciate the "hard -time" and
ao not urge or advise tnat this ques
tion of sewerage should be taken up
before it is absolutely necessary, but
whenever the council is of the opinion
that the majority of the property own
ers are lu favor of a new sewer syster
they should not hesitate to take the
matter in their hands and act;' and I
migni go iariner in an tnis ana say
that whenever In the opinion of the
council our sewer system Is Inadequate
and lsln such condition as to endanger
the health and lives of the inhabitants
of the city, they should not hesitate to
try to remedy the evil even by .a new
sewer system. I do. not believe anv
considerable sewer improvement could
be made to advantage except by taking
the entire matter in hand at one time
and costructing'a foil-and complete
svstem, entirely .independent of the
old
i sincerely hope that the present
council will be' as- harmonious in the
transaction of-business and as true to
tbe city's . welfare as has the council
during the past year, and that the re
lation of - the councilmen with each
other, and that the relation of myself
with the councilmen, will be mutually
pleasant and agreeable. , ,
Respectfully submitted, .
