Harry Parr Gives His Version of the Nc
Cormick Shooting.

WAsco COUNTY JAIL, May 49,, 1891
EDITOR CHRONICLE am barber by
trade, and was in business at the Cascade
Locks where l unfortunately met Pat
Mccormick, who represented himself as
bad man, and proved himself to be SO
in the neighborhood of the Locks. Some
one misrepresented me as prize tghtertto
Mr.. Mccormick, who on learning this,
at once challenged me for a fight. As L
would not accept of his proposal, he de-
termined to lick me whether / would
fight or not. To accomplish this, he
came to my room at 10 o'clock one night
and there abused me greatly. But beg
ged off on that occasion. The next day
concluded to leave the place to avoid
trouble, as was told that Pat was very
bad man whenever he took dislike to a
man, although had not harmed him in
any way.
On leaving the place l called on
friend who kept saloon. AS / entered
the saloon / saw Pat at the bar. Says
he Harry, l and you have a little
difficulty to SETTLE" Says 1, "McCor-
mick l will not talk to you any more"
l inviteo him to take drink with me
which he did.
l then turned and walked out of the
door, followed by Mr.. Mccormick. 1
walked abont thirty feet from the door
out in the street. When ! turned and
said 'Mc., You have followed me
enough" At that moment he threw
his hand back to draw his revolver. l
noticed the move and saw that had
no chance to escape. Then to protect
myself, l drew my pistol and began fir
ing at him as he had done the same at
me. l received three bullets, but only
one took effect in my breast. McCor-
mick received one, striking him in the
abdomen. He recovered and afterwar DIS
made his escape.
l was arrested and bound over to the
grand jury without examination, that
is, the justice of the peace claims that !
waived the examination, but I never
was made acquainted with the facts
until | was in Jail, any more than l
waived it until I was more able for an
examination, but l find myself wearing
off the long and dreary hours of my con-
finement for almost three months. But
l hope to be released from my unjust
confinement very soon, as 1 consider
myself justifiable in protecting myself.
Yours very truly,

A city PARK Needed.


One of the greatest needs of The Dalles
is a city park. Nothing contributes
more to making city a desirable place
to live than the possession of a large and
commodious park. 1t is breathing
place for all, a sort of an oasis as it were
in. the desert of everyday rush and tur-
moil of strife and business. The Dalles
owns some very fine property on the hill
in the vicinity of the new reservoir
which should be set aside for park and
improved from year to year until we have
one that will attract visitors from the
surrounding country. This city should
be the central point for excursions from
all directions and well laid out and
improved park would contribute largely
to that end. A band stand and speakers s
platform should be erected, seats pro-
vided for a good sized audience and if
this was done we believe the band boys
could be induced to give summer even
ing concerts frequently. Something
should be done before the coming 74th of
July celebration and movement look
in that direction should be inaugurated
at once.

A curious case of red tape has Just
come to my. attention. The Brazilian
Indians have a trick of COMPRISING the
skulls of the dead. They take ont all
the bones and reduce the size of the
head to about one-third of its original
dimensions, but manage to retain the
features and expression exact: A gen.
tleman IN New York on q recent trip to
Brazil secured one of these heads and
shipped it home. 1t now lies in box in
the basement of the custom house, and
he can get it no further, because the
health officer will not give. she neces-
sary authority to the customs officer to
pass the invoice, for the reason that no
certificate has been furnished as to the
cause of the mans death.-Cor Chicago

OregOa's Key.
at once.

Irrigation is Oregon's key to prosperity.
In the eastern portion of the state, and
lying south of the Columbia river, is a
broad domain of public land with a soil
second only to that of eastern Washing
ton. But it is deficient in rainfall, the
moisture swept inland by the air currents
from the sea passing northward into
eastern Washington. If Oregon could
get water upon these lands she would
quickly add many thousands to her pop
ulotion. That would attract new rail
roads, and the opening of the Columbia
to navigation would afford still another
potent factor.

Gagged in the TOP of a BuiIdtn~


For some mysterious reason the ele-
vator in Fuller's block did not stop at
the desired floor the other. day, and kept
on to the top of the building in spite of
the small boy who was running it. The
sole passenger was an elderly lady. 1t
was nearly noon when the ascent was
made. and it. was after dinner that a
gentleman discovered that the elevator
boy did not respond to the bells and went
to the roof to see what was the matter.
He discovered, Gagged up in the elevator,
a very much frightened old lady and a
boy, who also showed signs of anxiety.
With step ladder and some outside
help the prisoners were rescued through
very small opening above the door or,
the top floor and the elevator was set in
motion again. It will be some time be-
fore that lady trusts herself to an ele-
vator again.-Springfeld (Mass.) Home

CROP BULLETIN.
Indications Are Universally Favorable
for Good CrOPs--Heavy Fruit
Yield Expected.


The increased warmth has been OF
great benefit to crops of all kinds. The
growth is sremarkable. Winter wheat is
in places quite rank. On low land
spring seeding is not completed owing
to the rains and wet soil. Some rye is
heading. The hay and clover fields are
unusually promising. Hay will be a
big crop, the rain being very beneficial.
Hops are pole high already and SO far
are very healthy. Corn is being planted.
Garden products are up and growing
well. Straw berries are in blossom and
the fruit formed. Grape vines are being
trained on arbors, and the leaves are
about fully formed. The vines are
thrifty and clusters forming. Fruit trees
are heavily laden. The frost has not
pruned out the surplus fruit, hence con-
siderable fruit pruning will have to be
done by hand, else the trees will be
broken down. Il The prospects for all
products are unusually promising.
In Eastern Oregon late spring grain is
In need of more rain. Unless more
moisture is soon had the spring grain
will be short crop. Fall wheat
promises unusually well. In Umatilla
county the ground is quite hard, but the
late showers benefited it somewhat. In
Baker and Malheur counties irrigation
is mainly depended upon for crops, and
here they are very promising as the cool,
cloudy weather retarded evaporation. In
Union county wheat prospects are ex-
cellent. South of the Blue mountains
spring is backward and frosts are fire.
quent. Fruit is now blooming; frost
has done no damage to it so far. Spring
grain is coming up, but more rain is
wished for. Snow yet fingers in the
mountains keeping the air cool.
Throughout Eastern Oregon the fruit
prospects are excellent. Sheep shearing
is progressing finely. Some clips are
being delivered to warehouses.
