The Dalles daily chronicle. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1890-1948, 1892-05-13

DIR. Siddall is again at home after a
visit to Astoria, which he, and about
5000 others, greatly enjoyed.
N. II. Moffet and j. w. Booth, of
Moro, who have been in The Dalles for
several days on business, left for home
| yesterday.
Ina nj the nice lh,n..s, l..ss at Astoria this
week was the poem, by Col. A. T. Haw-
ley, in commemoration of the discovery
of the Columbia. It ought to be read
one hundred years hence, annually.
Judge Chas. H. Carey, of Portland,
has notified Hon. NJ. A. Moody of The
Dalles, that Hon. III. B. Miller, of
Grants Pass, will accompany Mr.. Ellis
on his campaign in Wasco and Sherman
counties.
The show window at TIE CHRONICLE
office yesterday received fine saf1pIeSctt
green peas from the garden of Mr.. H.,
Klindt, about two miles below town, and
bunch of rye four feet tall, from Dr..
Taylor's place on the bluff. The rye grew
in sandy soil.
A document has been filed with the
county clerk which claims all the water
in Clear Lake for navigation purposes.
When the people most intimately con-
nected with that region, having their.
homes there, realize fully what has been
done, there will be some kicks coming.
The steamers Regulator and Dalles
City of The Dalles, Portland and Astoria
Navigation company, will make quick
time on their routes today, taking pas
sengers from this city to Portland and
return for $500, tickets good for five
days, on the occasion of the visit of the
cruisers Baltimore and Charleston to
Portland. This isan opportunity which
possibly may never be repeated, to see
such vessels so near home.
A gentleman from Moro met with
lively experience yesterday on the Sufert
road. A cow frightened his team, and
they SHE'D into barbed wire fence,
then out of it, and upset the buggy.
Things We're righted, nobody hurt, and
they started again on the road, when
the team took another start, threw the
occupants out of the buggy, upset it
again, and dashed away at the top of
their speed, literally breaking the buggy
all to pieces. He bought a new buggy
of Mays & Grove and returned to Moro. |
Mr.. and Mrs. s. L. Brooks and others,
who took in the centennial at Astoria on
the 11th, have returned home delighted
with every event the occasion afforded. |
MIR. Brooks says the Astorians have
been grossly misrepresented by state
ments of excessive charges, lack of at
tention, etc. According to his account
the celebration was the grandest thing
that ever happened on the Pacific coast. |
The cruisers will be in Portland tomor-
row. The Pioneers had the post of
honor by land and by sea, in all the pro-
cessions. The attendance was immense.
and everybody returned home we'll
pleased.
Various rumors are current respecting
diphtheria in The Dalles, and that phy-
sicians may know what is required of
them in such cases, at the request of
city Marshal Gibbons we call attention
to the law. Ordinance No. IL provides
that every practicing physician in the
city shall notify the mayor, in writing, of
every case within twelve hours after the
existence of the disease shall come to
his knowledge. Refusal or neglect to do
so is an offense punishable by fine. The
owner or occupant of any house where
diphtheria is known to be, must also
notify the mayor in writing or suffer a
fine for their neglect. 1t may be deemed
advisable that certain parties in the city
read this ordinance, which is to be
found on page SO Dalles City charter, as
amended in 1882. Mayor Mays desires
that not only physicians, but families
afflicted, strictly comply with the pro-
visions of the ordinance in all such
cases.
