The Dalles daily chronicle. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1890-1948, 1892-06-06

Mr.. and Mrs. L. Samuels and Mrs. H.
Levy, were guests at the Umatilla house
yesterday. They are guests today of
Mr.. and Mrs. Seufert, and will return to
Portland this morning.
Mr.. S. G. Rigdon, OF Russell & Co.,
Portland, has been in this vicinity for
several days. With Mr.. Hood he has
become quite well acquainted with the
richness of Wasco and Klickitat counties.
Some pretty little lambs, which were
too weak to keep up with the process
sion. in a $4,000 band of sheep taken out
of Oregon yesterday, were distributed
amongst good little boys and girls of
The Dalles Yesterday
At Lyle, a promising little commun-
ity below The Dalles, on the Washing
ton side of the Columbia, the good peo-
pie met together Saturday evening and
enjoyed very successful rendition of
The Mikado, by local talent. A gentle
man who was present, speaks well of the
entertainment s @~ Ss
= Capt. McNulty reports that in all his
experience on the middle Columbia river
he never met with stronger wind than
blew yesterday when he made land
ing at Mosier. It required skillful use of
the Kedge to warp the Regulator away
from the landing, and considerable time
was lost in the effort.
The air is full of rumors of new dis
coveries of gold. 1t is said that eighteen
claims have been filed near the mouth
of Wood gulch and that Nose Claussen
and Elmer HadIey have discovered a
quartz ledge on Rock creek, on the Nc
Cam place. Old-timers will. recognize
it as the Mcclellan, formerly the Rene
Smith ranch.
The ferry was kept busy all day yes
terday ferrying band of 1000 mutton
sheep across the Columbia at this point,
for the markets of Puget sound and
British Columbia. They are the prop
erty of Mr.. J. A. Anderson, and will be
pastured in Eastern Washington and
marketed in accordance with the COM
mercial law of supply and demand.
Recently, upon an order from Mrs.
Sinnott, .Seufert Bros. shipped acouple
of Royal Chinook Salmon to her sons, in
college at Notre Dame, Indiana. The
fish were highly appreciated, as will be
seen by the following from Roger s., ac-
knowledging receipt of the fish, and of the
reception accorded to them, he says:
''They came in excellent condition, and
created a great stir among the epicureans
of N0fre Dame All Of xuho,,, xyara lo,,J
in their praises, and admitted that it
was the best and most luscious
denizen of the deep that had
ever ltickled their palates. Father
Walsh and the rest, made more than
one stab into the juicy sides of its car
mine flesh. The larger fish was served
up to more than forty people; and there
was enough left to feed few more. 1t
was the first delicacy of that kind eaten
by good number here. l sent a piece
to all the Oregon contingent, and they
were delighted to receive the same.
The fish came hard and plump; in fact,
as if they had been out of the water only
a few hours. We still have one left, in
anticipation, OF a barbecue next Friday"
Yesterday the old sailors song would
have been enlivening to scenes on the
Regulator, at Mosier:
Blow ye winds of morning, 81
fT Blow ye ewinds he, II no,
Clear away the morning dews
And blow ye winds. he, no.
