The Uniou Pacific Railroad Co. has
issued a splendid folder, "Our New
Colonies" descriptive of the Hawaiian
Islands, that contains much valuable
' information concerning this ne

Dalles Commercial & Athletic club
will take part, is being arranged. As
yet nothing definite has been done in
tbe way of fixing the date on which
the tournament will be held or what
alleys will be used for the same, it is
thought, however, that it will come off
in Portland about April 20th.
For a month past the children of tbe
Episcopal Sunday school have been
collecting pennies for their Easter
contribution, to the foreign mission
fund, and yesterday their contribution
boxes were opened. When all the
pennies were counted it was found that
the total donation was 823 .88. When it
is taken into consideration that there
are less than 50 children belonging to
tbe Sunday school, this is an ex
ceptionally good donation for the
young folks to make. '
A mac who gave his name as Mi
chael Dunne was arrested Saturday
charged with having stolen a qunatity
of provisions from Mr. Snipes, res!
dence below town. He had his pre

before the grand jury.' He is at pres
ent confined in the county jail and has
little hopes of being able to secure a
bondsman As far as could be learned

evidently thought the means he adopt
ed to secure a meal was more agree
able tban begging.
- W. G. Magers, tbe murderer of Ray

Seme people show a degree of absent
xnindedness that is really inexcusable,
and ho doubt if their appetites did not
demand it would forget to go to their
, iiaeals. A ' striking example of this
failing was noticed in the sheriff's of
fice the other day. ' Sheriff Kelly
received by mail a check in payment
of taxes, that had been endorsed by
three different parties, though it was
sot signed by the party who drew it.
Evidently the drawer had been too ab
sent minded to affiix his name to the
check before delivering it to the first
party, and the others 'through whose
hands it had passed had over looked
the omission. -

The Christian church, of this city,
bas extended a call to Rev. G. Rushing,
of La Grande, to be pastor of their
church, and the call has been accepted
by him. Mr. Rushing comes to our
city with the reputation of having
more than ordinary ability as a speak
er and a thorough pastor, and we
think the church quite fortunate in
securing his services. His work will
commence here in about a month.
Last evening a number of friends of
Miss Annie Davenport tendered her a
party at tbe residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Lee Bunch. The occasion was Miss
Davenport's 17th birthday, and the
party was a complete surprise. The
evening until midnight was pleasantly
spent in singing, playing games and
other amusements.
Yesterday afternoon I. H. Taffe ar
rived iu the city from Celilo and left
on the 5:30 train accompanied by
Constable Hill to arrest the Indian
murderer who Mr. Taffe bad succeeded
in locating at the camp of some other
Indians on the Deschutes .about four
miles from Celilo. Mr. Hill returned
with his man this morning and placed
him behind tbe bars.
Last night Mr. Phirman arrested a
party who had been acting strangely
around town for several- days and
placed him in tbe city jail. Today
Judge Maya looked into the matter
supposing that it would be necersary
to commit tbe man to tbe asylum. . He
learned that his name was J. H. RichJ
ardson.and that until a few days ago he
was an occupant of the poor house. He
came in from the poor farm with Mr.
Cushing and after they arrived in
town he gave him the slip and was
not seen again until today. He appears
to be quite rational and will be sent
back to tbe poor house.
The Indian arrested by Constable
Hill for the murder committed near
Celilo was brought before Justice
Bayard for examination this afternoon.
He seemed to be very unconcerned
and was of the opinion that a half
breed named Van Pelt did the killing
as he left for the Interior Sunday. He
gave his name as Jack and stated that
the murdered lad's name wa& Stalomito
Pino. Charlie Phillips acted as in
terpreter, but it was a hard matter to
get much information out of "Jack the
Ripper," as he is now called. His
hearing was unfinished at the time of
going to press, and it looks as if It
would be a hard matter to convict him.
Easter at the Catholic Church.
Easter services at the Catholic
church were well attended. As early
as 7 o'clock . Sunday morning the
church wis crowded with people who
had assembled there at that early
hour to commemorate the Res
urrection. Promptly at 7 o'clock St.
Mary's Orchestra, assisted by a choir
of children, pealed forth the glad
tidings of the Eister morn, in the
beautiful hymn "411eluia." The altais
were decorated with potted plants, cut
flowers and palms which, with numer
ous lighted tapers, presented a beauti
ful scene. . During this service
twenty three children, about twelve
years of age, received their first com
munion. Following are the names of
the communicants: Maggie McNeil,
Katie Nolan, - Alice Hilgen, Katie
Sklbbe, Francis Williams, Bertha
Williams, Mary Connor, Susie Brogan,
Josie Mohr, Rose Mary Bulley, Bertha
Kreft, Lucille Perry, Mary Howe,
Johnie Brogan, , Herman Geollner,
Earnest Furlong, George Bunch, Tol-
bert Shannon, Hugh Frazier, George
Fitzge-ald, Willie Seufert, Aloysious
Pashek and Mike Bohen.' Rev. Brons
geest delivered an appropriate sermon
and a short, but well worded address
to tbe children. Immediately after this
mass enrollment of the twenty-three
communicants took place. High mass
at 10:30 and Vespers at 7:30 were also
unusually well attended.
- OUB fUEIGHBOKlNG TOWNS.
Dutar and Hood River are Ask timing
Metropolitan Proportions.
Tbe two enterprising little towns of
Dufur and Hood River are certainly
enjoying a steady and substantial
growth that bespeaks for them better
times in tbe future and a population
that will entitle them to be known as
cities.
Two years ago Messrs. W. L. Vander
pool and T. H. Johnstoo bought a tract
of land adjacent to Dufur and laid out
thirty-four blocks of two hundred feet
square and placed them on the market.
So rapid has been the sale of this prop
erty that they have found it necessary
to plat another addition of 34 blocks to
be known as the fifth addition to
Dufur. In the sale of their property
they have made it a rule to never dia
pose of any ground for speculative pur
poses, only selling to puch persons as
would agree to build homes on the
land, hence it will be seen that Dufur
has enjoyed a substantial growth of
late. And in addition to this growth
io the resident portion of the town,
Johnston Bros., the leading merchants
of Dufur.are arranging to erect a brick
store building 80x85 feet, one story,
with a basement. It will be ' a
thoroughly modern building, supplied
with every convenience to make it up
to date. C. J. Crandali, ot this city,
has prepared the plans and specifica
tions for the new store, and work iH
begin on it during the present month.
It is proposed to make the brick right
at Dufur, so tbe new structure will be
a home production.
The growth of Hood River has al.so
been quite substantial of past years,
but it bas been nothing to what may
be exoeced the coming season, for the
business of that place will be
greatly stimulated by the building
of the large saw mill. Taking
into consideration the brilliant
future of the tewn, Mattie A. Oiler
bas filed with tbe county clerk a map
of Gem City addition, containing 45
lots lying on the east side of the river
and reaching down nearly to the Col
lumbia. The principal streets of this
addition are named Dewey and Samp
son, which is evidence of the patriotism
of tbe owner. It is a sightly plot of
ground, and wili no doubt sell well on
the market, for Hood River has a
future before it.
sometime Saturday night or early yes
terday morning near the spot where
the remains were found, and after tbe
killing tbe unfortunate victim was
dragged into tbe chicken house so as
to conceal thecrime until the murderer
could escape.
The information received is very
meagre the name of the murdered man
being unknown to Mr. Taffe, who in
formed Sheriff Kelly of thecrime.
It is thought by all tbe Celilo Indians
that the murder was committed by a
crippled Indian whose name our In
formant could not give. This is the
same Indian who was suspected of
having killed Indian Jim last winter,
and it is thought that he has left for
the Warm Springs reservation. A
search is beingmade In the vicinity of
Celilo and the Indian police on the re
servation will be notified immediately
to keep a sharp lookout for him and if
he goes there he will certainly be cap
tured. There will be no difficulty in identi
fying him as he was run over by a train
several years ago and crippled so that
be is forced to use crutches, and al
though some trouble may be ex
perienced in locating him, there is no
doubt that he will be brought to jus
tice if be proves to be the right man.
and the chain of circumstances seems
to be getting stronger against him all
the time.

Mrs. Wood's Funeral.
The funeral of Mrs. Emma Wood was
held from the M. E. church Sunday
afternoon and there are but few in
stances in the city's history where a
funeral was more largely attended by
sorrowing friends than was this one.
Every available inch of space in the
large building was filled and there
were, many who wished to listen to
the services who were unable to find
standing room. Mr. Warner, of this
city and Dr. H K. Hines, of Portland
delivered appropriate funeral sermons
concerning the influence of such a well
spent life as that of the deceased, and

merited tribute.
