Newspapers Of course have an eye for

notwithstanding the fact thai that city

the prominent railroad towns between
Pomeroy, Wash, and tie Grand Ronde
Valley and between there and Portland
between Portland and Chehalis, and be-
tween Portland and Rosebnrg, and he

that The Dalles Is In the best condition

any town he has visited, Portland not
excepted. All the towns east Of the
mountains are in better condition than
those west Of the mountains, and the
nearer one gets the Sound the worse

Grabbing with q Burglar.

The villa of the veteran sculptor
Thomas H. Ball, in Florence, was en-
tered Jan. 10, and though the burglar
was discovered and severely wounded in
the struggle that followed, he succeeded
in escaping with Mr.. Balls gold watch
and 5000 francs in bank notes. 1t ap-
pears that Mr.. Cowper, Mr.. Balls SON.
in-law, in returning to the villa at a late
hour, found that the contents of a large
cabinet standing in the lower hall had
been scattered over the floor. Hasten
ing to Mr.. Balls bedroom, he was there
confronted by the intruder, who blew
out the candle he was carrying and at
once grappled with MI. Cowper. In the
struggle, though Mr.. Cowper's left arm
and hand were badly lacerated when be
was forced through a glass door, yet he
succeeded in pitching the fellow head
long to the floor below, but was too
week from loss of blood to follow him,
and the robber got away before assist
ance came,
MI. Cowper was unarmed except with
a small pocketknife, which he evidently
used to some purpose, as attested by the
stained walls and staircase. 1t is not
believed Mr.. Cowper's wounds will
prove serious.
Mr.. Ball received no injury except to
his nerves, but the opportune arrival of
his son-in-law doubtless prevented a
more serious crime. Evidently the bur-
glar was fully acquainted with the ar
rangement of the house and the habits
of it's inmates, and probably the police
have been able by this time to arrest the
suspected party.-Boston Transcript.

Our city having grown SO rapidly IN
the past year, that it was found necess-
arv from time to time to find larger
quarters i'm which school might be held.
The trustees at last decided that the
growth warranted the building of a
school house that would satisfy the flu
ture as well as the present wants OF
growing city. They accordingly set "a
bout to bond the district for the sum of
$4,000. Gold Curtis our able Cashier Of
the First National Bank has by careful
management sold the bonds for the sum
of $3.50. The bonds bear interest at
the rate of 7 per cent per annum and
will run for ten years. The building
decided on will be of frame and two
stories high and contain a belfry tower.
1t will be a handsome structure and
an ornament to the town. The build
ing will be divided into four rooms, two
on the first floor and two or the second.
The foundation, which is of stone, is
nearly completed. George Rocquemore
is the contractor on this work receiving
for the same the sum of 1897. The con-
tract for the frame work has been tlgur-
ed on rs follows Joe Wagner $3511.73
| Geo. Wells $3740, p. F. Hammersly So
1873, X. A. McKlennan $3975, VIM. May
$4,000. Joseph Mowbray $44OO. b. A.
| Johnson $4,000. Mr.. Wagner being the
lowest bidder gets the contract. lie
will put men to work on Monday, July
II, and will have the building completed
by Sept. 10.

most creditable demonstration on indie

arranged which was followed to the let
fer. Our local base ball club, according
to II challenge went down to meet a nine
picked from Barker and other points.
The game was one of the chief features
of a day full of features and the leading
feature of the game was the approved
fashion in which the Neihart boys scoop
doughnuts to themselves and showed the
~tarriers that they couldn't play even Il
little. The players stood o
