WALLA YALLA LETTER.
Walla Walla, Jan. 19, !S!r3.
Walla WTalla is now snow-bound, with
little or no communication with the out
side world. Its good people are wrest,
ling with snow which covers its streets
and buildings to a depth of two feet and
drifts which reach a height of eight feet.
One of the hitter is to be found on Dr.
Newall street which has drifted on the
sidewalk of Mr. Mulkey, woo, for the
amusement of the neighboring children,
out a tunnel through the drift ten feet
long, six feet high and four feet wide,
which makes a nice runaway, to the
amusement of the children.
A man giving the name of Olsen Miller
died here Thursday evening from ex
posure. He was found Dear Waliula in
a badly frozen condition and brought to
this city. He had got lost and wandered
for two days and nights.
The grippe, if not popular, is most
persistent in forcing itself unwonted up
on our citizens, and but few escape its
unpleasant acquaintance.
Walla Walla has had its sensatiori3 of
scandal. First, that of Douglas, which
though sleeping is not dead and later
that of the Ilev. Banghn, late minister of
the M. E. church at Dixie, who suddenly j Sl-RPKISB l'AI;TY.MiS3 Marv Sloan
left to escape the vengence of an injured ; was the recim-ent of a vory pleasant snr
husband from Kansas, who is on bis : nr:p artv ; Tt,m.,aaY evening it
trail.
The city council has determined upon
a system of sewerage, which every popu
lated city mnch needs. The important
question arises, w ueiuer witn tne aiready
i high taxation, tax payers are prepared
! to bear the cost of the work at the
present time.
In consequence of the blockade busi
ness is very dull.

ARLINGTON KOTE3.
Arlington is deader than the skin on
the heel of a barefoot boy. As scattered
strav.' to show v.'i.-ich way the breezes
have be-n blowing here, I will cite a
little 4-xG incident thai' occurred in v:hat
was once a popular li:itl here. It was
8 o'cinck in the morning, and I was
rudely aw:'.!i?ned by a hammering,
poii.Lidiiig, jerking and dragging sort of a
r icket proceeding from the ro-'in next to
mine. I got into my collar a?id necktie
as quick as I conld and hurried into the
other room, firmly believing I would find
some p ior unfortunate trying, to w aft
his soiii over the river into Klickafat
county by suspending himself to tne
bed-springs with a pair of suspenders.
But I was fooled. The only unfortun
ate connected with the ailair .was down (
in the bar-room playing billiards 5 or
no count. The raclsetees were a rude
sheriff and a vulgar drayman, and they
made the noise while trying to get a
bedstead in shape for transportation to
the '"court house door in said county
and state." T have wondered ever since
who would have bid me in if I bad slept
long enough to have been attached as
part of the personal property of the de
fendant. There was a funeral here to-dav, the
deceased being the
0-year-ohi daughter

of U. A. Corniuh,
