some other soldiers when his eye fell
upon one of the cavalry horses that bad
just come aroand the corner of the
corral ' "If that horse was a Spaniard
I - would draw a bead on him like
that," he said, and suiting the action
to the word, placed his gun to his
shoulder and took aim at the unsuspect
ing animal. His ardor must haye been
great or the trigger pulled too easy,
for there was a puff of smoke and the
horse fell, gave a few kicks and ex

In experiments carried on at the
Oregon experimental station, butter
was produced from common grade

Henry E. Slocum committed suicide
at Ashland by hanging last Sunday
evening. He was 'about 60 years of
age, and had resided here a long time.

. Judge Bennett has begun improving
the grounds surrounding the new
residence he is building on ' fourth
street, and has secured the services of

the handsomest properties in Port
land. When completed the home
which Mr. Bennett is building will be
one of the most attractive properties
in the state.
The river showed a slight rise today
by some three inches above yesterday's
register. Ail Dallesites are dissatis
fied with the freaks of the Columbia
this year, and would prefer to see it 20
or 30 feet higher than the present
register. It would make them feel
much more certain that there would
1 be no extreme high water later In the
' season.
One of the best entertainments ever

admission. 15 cents, or, 25 cents per
pair, old maids 50 cents. We presume
the latter price Is meant to test the
honesty of our towu's elderly girls.
I A few days since Messrs. E. H. Mor
rison and W. Sweet, of Fairfield,
Wash., were wanting to buy a oar
load of work horses, but went away
without making a purchase. The
farmers bere held their horses from
. $10 to $20 a span higher than they
could be had for in other places. . It
would appear that farmeas who had
horses ' to sell have missed an oppor
tunity to dispose of them at good
I prices.

THE IKACHEKS AT HOOD B1VB.
A Day Profitably Spent In an educational
Meeting.
The whistling of the steamer Dalles
City last Saturday morning meant
more to the teachers of The Dalles
public schools than ever the ringing of
the tardy bell on school days. Tardi
ness on that occasion meant to be left,
and that meantto miss the opportunity
of one of the most delightful excur
sions and general good times that
could be offered any lot of school
ma'ams in the Northwests So there
was a general rush for the boat, some
hurrying away without their breakfast,
but all reached the wharf in time.
Winds and waves were fair, and the
grand old Columbia bore the precious
load of pedagogues on to the beautiful
town of Hood River, which dawned in
sight after a splendid ride of two hours.
Carriages sufficient to accomodate
all were in waiting to transfer the
guests to the school house: but as an
hour intervend before the opening of
the. institute, the drivers very kindly
offered to give the visitors an oppor
tunity to- eDj'oy a drive through what
mipla well !e called a natural park,
which Dame Nature has so generously
bequeathed to that part of the universe.
And so the carriages glided over the
most perfect roads, amid grand old
oaks and stately pines, the ground
carpeted . with green and gold, the
broad Columbia rolling near and Hood
River dashing on Its. bed of rocks,
while beyond, on either side rose a
snow peak glistening in the April sun,
and one could not but feel that the old
dame had been prodigally partial to
that most favored spot. Her bounties
are not confined to the beautiful,
but blooming orchards and ex
tensive strawberry fields were every
where to be seen, while shading the
road were trees of immense size that
must soon fall victims to the wood
man's as, since a large sawmill is
oniog built, all showing this section to
b rich in resources. Surely the home
seeker could fiud no more promising
locality. Even above all these gifts
from nature's store is the spirit that
dominates the community, so evident
in the magnificent school building,
substantial churches ; and beautiful
homes. .
Ths institute commenced at 10 A. M.,
and the teachers assembled promptly,
notwithstanding the attractions out
Side. Before antering upon the regu
lar work, the rooms of the school
building were inspected by the visitors,
and much admired for their decora
tions which reflected credit upoo the
teachers in charge, Who are unques
tionably up-to-date. -
The exercises opened witb a song by
the pupils of Prof. Allard's class that
was exceptionally well rendered, and
phe address of welcome by Hon. E. L.
Smith was hearty add full of interest,
being a contrast of the old and new
methods of conducting . schools.
America was next sung by the entire
assemblage led by Prof. Landers. The
singing did not quite "raise the roof"
but it aid raise the hearts of those pres
ent to the importance of the public
schools the corner stone of the
American republic. Prof Gavin made
a fitting reply to the words of welcome,
and the formalities having been dis
pensed with, the actual work of the
meeting was commenced.
' Prof Landers gave an able address
on ihe subject of literature in the
schools, and among the many good
things mentioned in the discussion
that followed was the tribute Mrs. E.
M. Wilson paid the .Youth's Com
panion as an educator of the young
mind. An excellent paper was read
by Mi 9 Elton, the theme being "teach
er's personality," that was especially
interesting to educators. Miss Phlr
man gave an illustrated talk on num
ber work In the first grade that was in
structive. '
Dinner time approaching, all re
paired to Mt. Hood Hotel, where one
of the Interesting numbers of the pro
gram was waiting. An excellent din
ner was served and was highly ap
preciated, by some sixty teachers and
their friends, the dinner being a
geuerous donation from the citizens of
Hood River.
The afternoon session opened with
the ''Battle Hymn of the Republic,"
followed by Mrs. E. L. . Smith reading
a paper on "co-operation of teachers
and parents." Mrs. Smith evidently
had given the subject much thought,
and the paper was one that should be
read generally by teachers and school
patrons, as it would aid in oringing all
to a better understanding of their re
lations to the public schools. Miss
Shelly gave an illustration of her
method of teaching the multiplication
table, in which she produced a number
of original ideas, and the program was
completed with a well prepared paper
on "the value of types" by Miss White.
. ' The session closed with a song by
the Hood Rlyer class, and all departed
feeling wiser and happier for that day
full of gladness, beauty and instruction
and it will long be remembered as one
of the pleasantest days in the memory
of The Dalles teachers who attended
the educational meeting at HooJ Riyer
on April 15th.
A Teacher.
. SPECIAL GOONCIL HEETLNO.
Sewer System Considered Anti Prise
Fight Ordinance Passed.
There was a special meeting of the
city council held at the Recorder's
office last Saturday evening, Mayor
Nolan and the' Following couocilmen
being present: ' Kuck. Johnson, Johos,
Clough, Gunning, Stephens and Kel-
let.
The mayor stated the object of the
meeting was to receive any report the
special committee on sewers might
have to make.
Councilman Kuck reported that it
was the sense of the' committee that a
civil engineer be employed to inquire
into the feasibility and practicability
of the proposed system, and on the
motion of Councilman Johnston the
committee was empowered to employ
W. J. Roberts, of Pullman Wash., who
made the plans and specifications for
the new water works, to examine into
and report upon the proposed system.
Councitman Stephens Introduced an
ordinance entitled an ordinance to
license glove contest in Dalles city,
and on motion of Johns it was placed
upon Its final passage and receiving a
unanimous vote was declared adopted.
The ordinance provides that the .prop
rietor or agent of all exhibits or prize
fighting glove contests or exhibitions
of skill in glove fighting shall pay a
license of $50 for each exhibit.
The ordinance received the signa
ture of the mayor and is now a law.
Faithful Service Appreciated.
Friday evening the teachers of Tl
Dalles public shools gave evidence of
their appreciation of what ex-Director
S. B. Adams has done for the public
schools of this city. At an appointed
hour the entire corps of teachers,
residence of Prof. Gavin and went in a
body to the home of Mr and Mrs.
Adams. There they presented to Mr.
Adams an elegant gold beaded cabe, as
a token of their esteem for him as a
worker in the cause of education. The
cane was engraved with the words "S.
B. Adams, School director, The Dalles,
1890-1899" and the presentation was
made by Miss Nan Cooper, who in a
few well worded remarks requested
Mr. Adams to accept the staff as a sup
port during his declining years and as
a token of the apprecirtion the teach
ers in The Dalles public schools have
for his efforts during nine years
as school director in upbuilding
the public schools of the city.. The
surprise to Mr. Adams was complete,
Hug he very gracefullly accepted the
gift. The teachers spent an hour very
pleasantly with Mr. and Mrs. Adams,
after which they dispersed.
A DEMOCRATIC RALLI.
They Hid Honor to the Memory of Jeffer
son In Portland.
On Friday night some 330 democrats
assembled at Watson's restaurant in
Portland to commemorate the memory
of Thotuus Jefferson, the greatest of
American commoners, and the father
of democracy. The banquet was pre
sided over by W. E. Roberts of Port
land, and the first toast announced
was "Thomas Jefferson" which was re
spondtd to by Judge John Burnett, of
Corvallis. Col. C. E. S. Wood spoke
on "Imperialism" and arraigned the
policy .of the administration in prose
cuting the war against a neople who
are fighting for liberty. The toast the
"menace of national banks" was re
sponded to by Hon. M. A. Miller, of
Lebanon, and Judge Cotlin spoke on
"democratic harmony." F. V. Holman
of Portland, and John M. Gearin
followed with appopriate ten minute
speeches, and Hon. Geo. L. Hutchin
responded to the toast "Democracy in
the Middle West" in which be com'
mented quite severely.upon the policies
of the admisltration. The last speech
was by ex-Sentar John H. Smith, of
Astoria, who responded to the toast
"Oregon" in very impressive talk upon
the state and its needs.
The meeting was a harmonious one,
and from the sentiment expressed by
all present it is evident the democracy
of the state is harmonious, and that in
future campaigns the party will be
united on general Issues no matter
what dissensions there may have been
in the past.
AR8WEKED LAST TAPS.
"Rebel Tom" Responded to the Last Final
Call.
Thomas Thompson, better known
here as "Rebel Tom." died at tho resi
dence of M. M, Cushijg, proprietor of
the county, farm, on the 14th. Mr.
Thompson was an old resident of The
Dalles,having come here in 1862 or '63,
and made this his borne eyer since.
He was born in Virginia 79 years ago
the 22d of last May, and when a youth
enlisted in tbeTJ. S. navy. He served
through the Mexican war, and was
later quartermaster of the good old
ship Constitution. On being discharg
ed from the navy he came west and
cast his lot with the new country of
the pacific coast. For a long ttme be
was a noted character in The Dalles,
and being a sympathizer with the
South during the rebellion, was given
the name of "Rebel Tom" by which
name he was generally known. For a
great many years he earned a living
by running an express wagon, but of
late years he had been unable to work,
and the only means of support he had
was a small pension he received from
the government. Being too feeble to
care lor himself, last year be was
granted permisiion to take up his
residence at the county farm, where
his declining days were spent.
Mr. Thompson was a kind hearted
man, one whom everybody liked, and
his death will bring a pang of sorrow
to many of the old residents of this
placo. So far as known he had no
relatives in this vicinity, and if he had
relatives elsewhere their address Is not
known by any one bere.
Death of Mr. Knight.
Horace Knlghc died at the home of
Mrs. Coven ton, about three miles
above The Dalles, at 8 o'clock Saturday
morning. For a number of years past
Mr. Knight had been afflicted with
asthma, and the complications of that
disease was the cause of his death
Mr. Knight was born in Rhode Island
69 years ago, anu came' to this
coast hen quite a young man. Ha
first mined in California and then
went to Canyon City, when the mines
there were first discovered. In his
mining enterprises he accumulated a
considerable amount of money, part of
which he iu vested here, but the great
er portion was in a bank in bis native
state. At the time of his death, a
nlace, Miss Johnson, of John Day
Town, and a nephew, Henry Knight,
of Rhode Island, were with him. He
had no family, and his only relatives
were his nieces and his nephews.
ilr. Knight was t ver an honest, up
right man, liberal to a fault, and was
well respected by all who knew him,
The remalus will be Bent to his old
home in Rhode Island for burial.
Branching Out.
While it is common for Portland
houses to start branch establishments
in the interior it is an uncommon
thing for an interior mercantile house
to go into the metropolis. But the
Great Northern Furniture store is aa
exception. The managers of this es
tablishment have determined to
open a store in Portland, and have se
cured a two-story brick 50x100 feet on
First street that is being refitted for
them, and in a short time they will
open a large furniture establishment
the re. By opening this new house
they will be able to buy direct from the
factories in car lots, and will thus be
enabled to meet all competition. This
will be a considerable benefit to their
large house in this city, as it will put
them in a position to buy on better
terms, hence they can give their cus
tomers better rates. They certainly
are to be commended for their enter
