W. H. Butts prides himself upon the
excellent quality of the poultry he puts
" on the market. His chickens, geese
; and duck? are always the best.
. Colds are more prevalent among the
residents of The Dalles at present than
ever before. No body now-a-days is in
fashion unless he can support a cold.
We hear already of Baker City as
pirants for the office of United States
attorney, marshal, collector of customs
at Portland, and for almost every
other office on the list. Democrat.

- A number of factories have opened
up in .the" east-, since ' ?the election.
Thus it would . seem that a few who
- had promised to open their mills were
not joking. There: is no agreement
however, as to how long they will keep
open. $ " r "
Hereafter the D. P. & A. N.-. boats
' will leave for Portland at 8 a. my in
stead of 7:30. This is made possible "by
the rapid transit ; through the locks.
They pass through in 15 minutes,
whereas it formerly required rom one
to three hours to transfer.
The official canvass of the vote of
Wasco county will not be made befo're
sometime next Monday. " Tho returns
from all the precincts except Antelope
have been received, and - when they
come in County Clerk Kelsey will pro
ceed to make the official count.
The contractors at Cascade Locks
deserve credit for the elegant banquet
- given their guests on the event of the
opening of the locks, and also for cap
turing the state officials together with
our able-bodied senator, when the peo
ple of The Dalles wanted them to help
celebrate.' ' .
- It was reported at the Cascades on
t.h dav of the oneniner of the locks
that Mavor Pennoyer had resigned
: but the report seems to haye lacked
foundation. The ex-governor purposes
to hold on to the mayorality until he
weeds out some of the rottenness of
Portland.
Two young men who are going to
crawl on their hands and knees across
- the continent from San .Francisco to
New York, beginning next spring, will
run the risk of being shot at for young
grizzly bears by near-sighted agricul
turalists, lassoed by cowboys, bitten by
snakes, and of suffering from corns on
their knees. The best thing they can
do will be to crawl out-of their con
tract. The e'ection being over and the
locks opened, business in The Dalles
must revive, hence merchants and
other business men will be in need of
new stocks of stationery. Recognizing
this the Times-Mount ainkek- has
added a number of new faces to its
already large stock of job typo that it
might be prepared to fill all orders
and meet the demands of the trade.
Give our new stock a trial:
v The East Oregonian, together with
A. D. Stillman, G. R. Lash and J. P.
Walker are defendants in a libel case,
in which one T. T. Newman seeks to
recover $7,000 damages for defamation
of character. In April, 1895, Newman
was organizing the "Royal Endeavor,"
which was represented to be a branch,
of the Woodmen of the World, and'
the East Oregonian and the gentle
: men above named undertook to show
" that lie was a fraud, hence the suit.
Yesterday we made mistake in
saying the funeral of William Ced
erson, who was killed in the railroad
accident near Seufert's cannery,
when we stated that he was buried
by the K. of P. lodge. The funeral
was conducted by Wasco Tribe of rfed
Men and the Friendship Lodgd

and held the office of first warrior in

Without the ladies nothing would
be a success, and especially is this true
with reference to all manner of enter
tainment. No one realizes this more
fully than do the members of the com
mittee who had in charge t':ie banquet
given last Thursday -night. That
everything passed off so successfully
in the banqi.et h:i!I and that so many
were well served that evening was due
t the valuable assistance rendered by
the ladies of The Dalles. Not only the
committee but all who participated in
the celebratiea extend their thanks to
The Dalles ladies.
A. Granger, one of Franklin county's
mutton kings, is negotiating for 123
tons of hay, which he will ship either
to Pasco orEltopia, and feed his sheep.
a9 will also Messrs. O'Brien and Jen
sen, says the News. Mr. Granger says
his increase has been over 100 percent
this year. He nl so says the range in
tbo Fishhook country has been com
pletely eaten out by grasshoppers and
stock, and, unless there is a heavy fall
of snow during the winter or heavy
rains early in the spring, it will be
hard picking for stock next year. -

rapids at any stage when the locks can
be operated.

TUK DE FAULTING K. P. SECRETARY
Be Plead Guilty and Was Sentenced to
Six Years in the Penitentiary.
;; George McConnell, for several years
keeper of records and seals of the
Oregon Knights of Pythias, who de
faulted with funds of the order and de
camped to Britisb Columbia -several
months ago, appeared in Judge Sears'
court in Portland last Saturday morn
ing and pleaded guilty to three out of
five indictments against him for wrong
fully converting money and for forgery
of bills of exchange upon banks.
Ho was sentenced to three, two and
one years respectively six years in all
but as the sentences run concurrently
McConnell will spend but three years
in the penitentiary unless he is par
doned. .
The indictments upon which McCon
nell was sentenced are for forgery of a
bill of exchange on the First National
bank of Corvallis for $30.60 anr? one
upon the First National bank of Hi'.ls
boro for $53.93 and the third was lar
ceny by bailee of $55.97 money of Blue
Mountain-lodge, No 28, K. of P.
Speaking of McConnell's case the
Portland Telegram says: - ' ;
McDonnell's aowniaii, which -was
quite a sensation in this city, was
brought about by whisky aud cards.
Four months ago he disappeared with
an uncertain amount of cash and spent
to British Columbia. Judge Stevens,
while on a visit to Rossland, last sum
mer, found McConnell in that city.
He was on a 'toot' and spending what
money he possessed like a prince,
When the officer went after him Mc
Connell sobered up and said be would
accompany him without any trouble
whatever. When arranged today and
asked if he had anything to say, Mc
Connell said that he had no defense to
make of his conduct. Sentence was
then pronounced. It is believed that
the Oregon Knights of Pythias lodges
-have lost altogether something like
$3,000 through McConnell's specu
lations." :

Suicide at Mitchell. "
Saturday night, October Ql, William
Spitzer committed suicide in his room
at the Central hotel, Mitchell, says the
Prineville Review. Spitzer was a
laboring man, and had been employed
during the past summer by William
Nelson as a sheep herder. About four
weeks ago he quit Mr. Nelson's employ,
received his pay and went to Mitchell
where he entered upon a protracted
"spree" which was brought to an end
the day before bis death by the liquor
dealers refusing to sell or give him
more drink. ' Sunday morning, after a
failure to arouse him, the hotel people
went into his room and .'found him
dead. The proper authorities were
summoned, and upon investigation a
phial of strichnine was found in his
pocket, from which several grains had
been-spilled upon the floor. Strvchnine
was also found in a glass, partly filled
with water, that stood upon the table.

War Against Sheepmen.
John F. Circles informs the Prine
ville Review. that on the 24th of last
month as his band of sheep were on
Alder Creek on tho South Fork of tho
John Day, 13 masked men on horseback
armed with pistols and Winchesters
rode up to his herder, Loyd Chenoweth,
and told him to drop his gun which he
did. They told him to throw up his
hands and instead of doing so he
grabbed his Winchester and sprang
behind a tree and opened fire on the
masked men who immediately left, not
however until they had fired 20 or 30
shots. The herder fired 14 shots and
thinks he hit two men. Mr. Circle
states he was an eye witness "to this
affair being about one-fourth mile
away.
The next day Mr. Circle states they
fired into Fred Smith's sheep and killed
about 100 head.
Two lrives Saved.
Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, 111., was told by her doctors she
had consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles of Dr.
King's New Discovery completely
cured her and she says it saved her
life. Mr. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida
street, San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching consump
tion, tried without result everything
else then bought one bottle of Dr.
King's New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. He is naturally

Those who witnessed Miss Ober and
her Eastern company in this interest
ing play were well repaid indeed, for
they were highly entertained by that
aocomplished lady and her able sup
port. The play is indeed satiracal,
and the plot is well laid. It affords an
abundance of mirth, and tho audience
has no reason to complain for want of
something to laugh at. The company
played before a fair sizid house last
eveuing, considering that it was their
first appearance in the city, and will no
doubt fill the house this evening, since
the merit of their productions and the
remarkably low price of admission is
certain to bring out admirers of the
play.

Seriously Injured.
When freight No. 23 was coming
down the road last night just above
Arlington the airbrakes werejsuddenly
turned on by the breaking of a coup
ling, bringing the train to a sudden
stop. Brakeman Joe Eoff, of this city,
was sitting in the cupola of the ca
boose at the time, and was thrown to
the bottom of the car with great vio
lence. He was severely injured about
the back part of the head, and bis phy
sician fears he has sustained internal
injuries. Mr. Eoff was brought down
on the morning passenger, and was
placed under the care of Dr. Doane.

THE HOUSE WEST DOWX.
Seventy Tons too Much for the If. V. St
A. N. Freight House.
About 8:30 lasT; evening the little
freight houie ut tho lower end of the
D. P. & A. N. dock went down undt-r
the immense weight of 70 tons of
freight that had been piled up within
it. The Dalles City bad just finished
unloading her cargo, and all hands
about the dock had started homi',
whan a crash came, and all of a sudden
the little house was a total wreck.
The timber of which it was built was
scattered around promiscuously and
the large quantity of freight wad piled
on the ground underneath where the
house formerly stood io a promise!. u.
heap. Fortunately very little of the
contents of the warehouse went into
the river, and by pressing into service
nearly all the drays in town the com
pany was able to move all the freight
to their large warehouse in a few hours.
The freight house wa3 built lust
spring and was a structure 2-1x40 feet,
built upon what appeared to be a solid
foundation, composed of sleepers lli:12
inches, 2i feet long laid on stringers
12x12 that rested on piling sunk deep
into the ground. The sieeoers how
ever broke in the middle, allowing the
building to collapse.
The company began clearing away
the debris at once, and will have an
other freight house constructed within
a few days, resting on a firmer founda
tion, so that in the f uture there will ba
ua danger of another liko mishap.

The accident that occuried to th
D. P, & A. N. freight house last
night was indeed a fortunate one, since
very little of the merchandise in the
bouse was' damaged. A few;6acks
sugar and salt were torn and a small
quantity of household furniture was
broken. In all the damage to mer
chandise did not amount to more than
$25.
. Last night Lee Bunch paid the
penalty of a novel election bet. He
had agreed with Charlie Roehnect that
if McKinley were elected he would
wheel him from the Columbia brewery
to the San Francisco beer hall on
wheelbarrow, and Charlie had agreed
to do the same for Lee provided Bryan
should be successful. So last night
Lee performed his part of the contract
to the satisfattion of Charlie and all
those who assembled to see the penalty
of the bet carried out.

It is now an almost settled fact that
the branch insane asylum will not be
built at Union, at least until the state
constitution is amended. Yesterday
the supreme court handed down a de
cision sustaining that of the lower
court in restraining the state treas
urer from paying a warrant drawn in
payment for the cite of the branch
asvlam. The decision of the court is
that it would be a violation of the con
stitution to locate a state building at
any other point than at the state cap
ital.
A shot from an airgun in the hands
of Master Harry Waggoner Wednes
day afternoon, at Corvallis, came near
costing F. P. Sheasgreen's little son
tne loss 01 an eye. rne ooys were
playing soldier at the time, and when
the accident occurred it was a pretty
hard matter to determine which one of
them was the more scared. Fortunate
ly the shot struck the injured boy just
below the eyeball, and inflicted only a
slight abrasion of the skin. Had the
bullet ranged a half-inch higher, the
result would certainly 'have been seri-
ious. -

IIo-.v 'tut 1 Sam" Got Ilia Name.
The nioknume, "Uncle Sam," as ap
plied to the United States govern
ment, is said to have originated as fol
lows: Samuel Wilson, commonly
called "Unele Sara," was a govern
ment inspector of beef and pork at
Troy, New York, about 1812. A con
tractor, Elbert Anderson, purchased a
quantity of provisions, and the barrels
were marked "E. A.," Anderson's in
itials, and U. S., for United States.
The latter initials were not familiar to
Wilson's workmeu, who inquired what
they meant. A facetious fello v ans
wored: "I don't know, unless they
meau 'Uucle Sam.' " A vast amount
of property afterward passed through
Wilson's hands marked in tho sune
manner, and as he often joked upon
the extent of his possession?. Thp
joke spread through all the depart
ments of the government, an I before
long the United States was popularly
referred to as "Uncle Sarr."
