Yesterday was devoted to sightseeing by
residents aud strangers and every porElon
of the submerged district was VISITED
Very many who live IN the country came 10
town to look at the streets before the enects
of the high water should be removed.
The high water mark can be plainly az
cerned, and very many were astonlsheu 10
see the height this reached. The marx OF
1894 has never been reached before IN the
history of The Dalles, and it is not un-

The arrest of HaW thcrpe places the last
member of a baud of d5speTadnes in the
hands of the law, and 1t Is to be hoped that

safer from depredations. Hays, one of the

The body of James Spence was found
with a bullet hole through his head, in the
Klamath river, about thirty feet from Jas.
Whaieu's saloon, near the Shovel Creek
Springs hotel, last Wednesday. Spence
was an old soldier, aged about so years, and
had resided in that neighborhood for several
years working for MIR. HessIg. He left
Hessig's house a week sgo last Thursday
and was not seen afterwards until his BODY
was found in the Klamath the following
Wednesday. The body had evidently been
in the water for several days. as it was
badly dlsfgured. An examination of t he
bullet wound showed that the ball had en-
tered Just back of the right ear coursing at
an angle of about 81 degrees and lodging
on the opposite side of the head.
The Jacksonville Times says that about
8 O'Clock Last Wednesday morning Phillip
Miller, while laboring under temporary
halluclnation, started for the Miller mine on
Farmers fat. Not hearing from him his
friends became uneasy, and Thursday COM
menced to search for him. His tracks were
found where he had left the road and wan
dered into the brush. and next morning he |
was discovered where he had jumped from |
a bank over thirty feet high to the bed of |
the creek below. He had followed the |
stream three or four hundred yards after |
falling, and the searching party found him |
lying near the water with his head on a |
boulder. He was bruised and cut severely, |
but 1t was thought he would recover.
