Dick Gorman returned last evening
from Hood River where he had been
as a rearesentative of the Mt. Hood
Gad Co., assisting in putting up a gas
plant for C. T. Bonney. The lights

the thriving town of Hood River were
greatly pleased with them.
Some of our exchanges are making
a whole lot of fuss about the dollar and
ten dollar dinners recently given in
, New York and other places, some of
them intimating that they wore too
common to be enjoyed. "Veil, that
might be the ' case back east where
people are truly aesthetic, but there
are lots of us here in The Dalles who
are not so particular. A 15-cent din
ner is pretty high here.
The entertainment given by the In
dependent Order of Bachelors last
night was a most complete success.
The unmarried men displayed ideal
qualities as entertainers, their pro
gram being generally applauded; and
we are told that after the program a
very "delicious'' bachelors' repast was
served and a pleasant social hour en
joyed. The unmarried females were
conspicuous by their presence, and
each and all of them were reluctantly
forced to admit that the bachelors
could get up an entertainmenfalmost"
as attractive and interesting as if they
fhcmselyM were io charge, which
glowing compliment the young men
deeply appreciate.
S. L. Brooks, who is the best posted
on the weather of any person in this
section, and who has made a close study
of the rise and fall of the river for
many years, is of the opinion that
there will be no extreme high water
this season. His theory is that the
snow in the mountains has become so
solid that it will not thaw rapidly w bun
the warm weather bogins.
Some people find snakes by staying
around town too closely and frequent
places where liquid refreshments are
dispensed, but Dayton Taylor, one of
The Dalles boys wbo is working with
a surveying party between Lyle and
Goldendale, has been finding them in
the country. Dayton has a perfect
horror of snakes; even a little water
snake is a terror to him, and a rattler
takes bis breath away. His compare
ions in the urveying party knowing
his fear of reptiles, thought to give
him a fright the other evening, and
tbev did. A fine set of rattles had
been secured and fastened to a black
snake whip that was carefully coiled
in his bed. When Dayton crawled in
to the blankets and discovered the
snake there was a commotion. He got
out of there and didn't stand on t.ie
order of his going, but lit out running
and hallooing "snake" at the top uf
his voice. He would probably be run

The railroad surveyors who are op
erating on the other side of the river
are running on the N. P. survey that
was made in 1871, west from Rockland,
and while they are reticent about ex
pressing themselves as to what the ob
ject of surveying the line is, they in
timate that they are in the employ of
the Northern Pacific, which leads to
the belief that the N. P. is contem
plating building down the Columbia
from Pasco.
A terrible wind storm prevailed on
the road between here add Umatilla

Some time ago Andrew Keller at
tached a water moter to his ice cream
freezer, and as a result hn is now minus
the end of a finger. Last nignt he was
freezing cream when a piece of ice got
on one of the cog wheels and he at
tempted to brush it out. He caught
the second finger of his left hand be
tween the ' wheels and the end was
clipped off, the bone being badly
crushed. Dr. Hollister dressed the
wound and will be able to save all the
finger that is left.
Saturday freight train No. 23, going
west, had a fortunate escape from a
frightful accident just this side of
Hood River. It was a train of 40. cars
hauled by two engines, and on round
ing a curve ran on to a lot of rocks
that had been thrown upon the track
by a recent blast. The bead engine
and one car went off the track, but
fortunately there were two flat cars
between the engines, so the second
engine being reveresed checked the
speed of the train, so as to avoid all
the cars going off. The-damage to the
train was slight, and all the trainmen
escaped without injury. , ' "

THE DAlXfttS TEAM WON.
They Bad m Majority of 8 Pins Over the
Salem Visitors.
The bowling contest -last Saturday
evening between the D. C. & A. C.
team and the Iliihees from Salem was
one of the most interesting tourna
ments ever rolled anywhere, and in
point of scores was up to the average
at least. The visitors were hardly at
their bst, having traveled all day, and
having been delayed for several hours
at Hood River on account of a rail
road wreck, their nerves were a little
shattered, and of course could not have
been expected to roll as well as they
would at home. Nevertheless, they
are all first-class bowlers, and did some
fine execution on the Club alleys here.
The game was to have begun at 8
o'clock, but owing to the late arrival
of the Iliihees it did not. begin until
after 9, out the club rooms even at
that late hour was well filled with
spectators, who heartily enjoyed the
game. The Dalles team wou the first
game, and the visitors the second,
then the home bowlers increased their
scores beyond the danger line and
winning the two remaining games.
Mayor Nolan made a wonderful score
of 226 pins which ties the Pacific coast
tOJrnament record for four games.
The individual scores made by the
teams were as follows:

Dost In the Air.
The attention of people here has
been called to the peculiar appearance
ot the heavens the past few days, the
air being filled with a yellowish sub
stance that leaves a hazy appearance
as if it were smokey, but of the wrong
color for smoke. A close inspection
of the phenomenon proves it to be a
fine yellow dust that Is so light that a
considerable portion of it remains sus
pended in the air. It will collect on a
freshly painted board, and give It a
yellowish tinge, or a tish set outside
for a few hours will be coated with
small particles of the dust.
Where the dust came from is a
mystery, as it is entirely difierent from
the dust that is raised by a wind
storm here, and has somewhat the ap
pearance of volcanic ashes. Evidently
it was blown in by an east wind, pro
bably havintr been carried a long
distance high in the air, and by some
change of currents of wind was thrown
to the round.

After the contest the bowlers and a
few invited guests repaired to the
Umatilla House where Messrs. Sinnott
& Fish served an elegant banquet. The
dining ball was tastefully decorated
and the tables fairly creaked under
the magnificant spread thereon. Hon
G. C. Blakeley. president of the D. C.
& A. C, was installed as toast master,
and succeeded in keeping questions of
interest before all who were seated at
the table for more ttaa.i au hour.
During the evening Mr. Minto, of
the Iliihees, sang two very appropri
ate songs, while ot.bor members of
both teams responded to the different
toasts. The meeting was indeed
pleasant one, and a friendship sprung
up between the members of the two
teams that will be lasting.
AMERICA'S SB1P-BUILD1NU.
At Present a Ship Can Be Built Cheapest
In England or Scotland
The ruling factor, of course, is price
and at present anyone wanting
steamship can buy it cheaper in Eng-
lanp or Scotland than in America.
How long is that likely to continue?
Material, as has been shown, has al
ready been made more cheaply in the
United States; labor, on the other hand
is dearer. I have spoken of the advent
of labor-saving methods in the Ameri
can shipyards. It would, of course, be
easy to mike too mucb of this, for the
trained man will always be needed, and
the more highly specialised tools be
come, the higher must be the training
and capacity of those who direct their
use, not necessarily those wbo directly
use them. It would be well if British
shipbuilders could take the initiative
by raising the wages of their best men
(before the latter go out of the country)
and compensate themselves by reduc
ing the demand for labor though im
proved mechanical devices. One could
go into Glasgow or Xewlastle any day
and engage a staff of younger men
thoroughly acquainted with detail,
though they may not have attained to
the highest positious at a cost which
would be insignificant compared to the
magnitued of the work involved

H. T. Hill came in yesterday after
noon from Prineville, and left on the

asked regarding the loss of stock in
Crook county during the past winter,
Mr. Hill stated it had been pretty
beayy, though it has not crippled any
of the stock raisers, and the increase
this year will be considerably greater
than the loss, hence there will be the
usual amount of stock on Crook coun
ty ranges this fall. Crops, Mr. Hill
said, were a little backward, but with
favorable weather there will be a good
harvest.

vaudeville continues in popular favor
it will be because he and a few others
who have the brain and talents, en

Novelty of any kind is always ac
ceptable in vaudeville, which is grow
ing more cut and dried every day, and
when the novelty is of a dainty and
pleasing nature as this comedy is, it is
doubly pleasing. The play of Mc&or
ley's Twins is not a one-man part but
requires the services of a large and
competent company to internet it and
the many characters. As Bobby

country he will undoubtedly be greeted

C. B. Johnson, representative of A.

again arrested and fined $50 for viola
tion of the vendor's license ordinance
of the city. He refused to pay the fine
and was placed in "durance vile." He
petitioned the county judge for a writ
of habeas corpus which was disallowed.
Just what turn the proceedings will
now take is hard to determine, out the
Journal is of the opinion that persons
soliciting orders for merchandise are
not peddlers or vendors within the
meaning of the ordinance under which
he was convicted. Prineville Journal.
Evidently Prineville people don't
like Charlie, or at least the merchants
don't like the bargains he is able to
offer the people through his firm. If
they can't stand competition why don't
they build a big wall around the city
so as to keep competion out.

lhere is no more wholesome and
palatable beer made anywhere than
that produced by the Columbia brew
ery, and it is a wonder that any other
is used in the different liquor houses
of the city, for they should certainly
practice patronizing' home industry,
when tbey can get as good an article I
here as they can import. Mr. Buchler
is doing everything possible to' suit
customers, and is certainly meeting
with marked success Next Sunday
ne win put on tne market an excep
tionally fine quality of bock beer, that

Did You Ever
Flu For Fiber.
Success with the manufacture of
grain sacks from flax tow at the Wash
ington penitentiary has given rise to
a revival of interest in the question of
utilizing flax for fiber in the northwest.
The experiment conducted at the
state manufactory produced sacks
which in strength and durability are
pronounced, under practical test, su
perior to those made from the import
ed jute article, and the possible sub
stitution is being discussed. Nearly
a half million dollars is annually spent
for jute sacks which might be used for
giving the flax fiber industry a decided
lift were the entire sa'.-k consumption
of the northwest to be supplied from
the home product. The penitentiary
spends perhaps $50,000 a year for jute
alone which might be diverted to he
flaxen substitute with the expenditure
of a few thousand dollars for machin
ery to convert tne hber into tow.

Want Oregun Sheep.
The demand for Oregon sheep has
not abated, judging from the number
of drovers who have come this season
from Montana, the Dakotas, Wyoming,
Nebraska and Colorado, for the pur
pose of purchasing yearling ewes and
wethers with which to replenish their
ranges. Messrs. Harry Dunbar and
F. J. Everaon, of Bozeman, Mont., are
now in Portland, with view to meet
ing sheepmen. Tbey expect to buy
from 15,000 to 20,000 head in the Eastern
Oregon country, which they will ship
over the O. R. & N. and Northern
Pacific to the Yellowstone. They re

beauty differ
but the one
sort of lovliness that all agree upon is the
beauty of health. No matter what her
features, no sickly woman can be attrac

repellant. And they can nearly always
be traced to the one cause womanly
weakness or disease. Almost all the ills
of womankind are cured if you put the
feminine organism into healthy, vigorous
condition. All sickness of women seems
to involve these delicate organs and so no
matter what the symptoms may be it is

All such disorders are completely and
permanently cured by Dr. Pierce's Fa
