For early spring there are some startling
effects in wool dress material One gown
had a bisque ground, with red diagonal
stripes and dark blue figures almost as
large as ones hand ard like nothing else

right side to show an underskirt of blue
silk with two blue velvet flounces The
coat basque had enormous pelerine revers
of the velvet bound with ermine and a
rundown collar of the same. There was
an ermine muff. All around the skirt was
a band of velvet and above that nartow
bisque ribbon set with cabuchons. The
other gown was of light tan stuff, with
rough crisscrosses in red. with black run
ming water pattern. This was cut pima
fore shape over mordore velvet skirt and
waist. The sleeves were also OF velvet and
bordered with narrow band OF astrakhan.

a few have regular little plated panniers,
which meet in front and are lost under the

Died-this morning, Edward Crate,
aged S6.
Mr.. Crate had been, for man of his
great age. in ordinary health, but after
riding to town, complained q little and
lay down. DR.. Hollister was sent for,
but before his arrival the great reieiver
came and for this aged man all earthly
troubles were over.
When the first eyes that ever looked
upon this part of our fair land-with the
hope of making here home-are closed
by death, it is fitting that we who have
entered into the labors OF those who
came so long before us. should give
more than passing thought to him
who has gone. Mr.. Crate was born in
Sorelle, Canada, but brought up in
Montreal. In 1880 he took service with
the Hudson Bay Co. This was to all
Canadian youths who loved adventure
the only outlet that gave promise of
what could crafty their craving for ro-
mance and hair breadth escapes by flood
and field. His first trip from Fort Nell
son to Vancouver as voyager was made
in 1880. He tragersed this long path
many times. taking as many months fog
the trip as the Canadian Pacific which
goes over much of the same route, now
requires days. Mr.. Crate married in
Canada and brought his family here,
settling on what win always be known
as Crates point. He hesitated between
that and the site now occupied by our
town; but looking at both with an eye
of bateaux man, Thought he saw in the
lower site better chance to have his
boats in good winter harbor His boats
were employed in bringing the early i'm
migrations down the Columbia. He
went, as a volunteer, for the defense OF
the settlers, and he it was who brought
down in his boats from old Fort Walla
Walla, now Wallula, those who were
rescued from the savage cruelty of the
Whitman massacre7the Spaldings and
others. Mr.. Crate was the father OF
fourteen children, the most of whom are
residing in this vicinity.

ing the pleasure of the enemy. Before
action could be taken the Japanese feet
could be seen approaching through the
smoke which hung low upon the water.
The moment the Japanese sighted
their game, they opened a hot1fire,
which the Chinese did not take time to
return. She put for refuge with all
speed and managed to elude the. Japan
ese. When clear of the pursuing feet,
attention was given to the dead and
wounded which strewed the decks. It
was not until then that the horrors of
warfare showed themselves. The living
had been too busy saving the ship to pay
any attention to their less fortunate
mates, and the scenes of carnage visible
on the main deck were enough to sicken
even Chinese.
The. place was worse than slaughter
pen. From her upper to main deck the
ship was completely stripped, and all
the bodies that had not been blown
overheard by the explosions, found lodg-
ment on the main deck. Blood an inch
deep covered the deck fore and aft, and
in the swing of the ship the crimson
fluid washed and splashed upon the
beams Strips and fragments of sailors
who had died at their guns were floating
about in the blood. Several heads,
hands, arms, feet and legs were strewn
about and piled up IN heaps, and from
the eplintered bulkheads of iron and
steel hung fragments of human bodies
still dripping blood. As rapidly as pos-
sible the ships doctor, Kirk, young
Irishuan, made the rounds of the in
iured. Those who stood good chance
of recovery were sent below TO the sick
bay or ships hospital, but the mortally
wounded were given their ouietus in a
manner peculiarly Chinese. Acting un-
der orders from the captain, the doctor
carried an atomizer, filed with prussic
acid. Approaching hopelessly man
gled sailor, the doctor made hasty ex-
animation. If it was case which was
likely to result fatally, the doctor lower
ed his atomizer. On seeing the instru-
ment, the sufferer, thinking he was
about to obtain reliet, would stretch his
head forth in an eager desire for medi-
cine. Placing the nozzle of the atomizer
at the lips and nostrils of the victim, the
doctor would give the bulb squeeze,
and all was over. The deadly acid did
it's work in an instant, and SO effectively
that the sailor never knew what killed
him. Over dozen cases were given the
acid treatment and the bodies heaved
overheard. Where no chance of saving
life existed, the surgeon had no hesi-
tency in using the atomizer. The en-
gineer added:
SIT seemed a brutal thing to do, but it
was all for the best. accompanied the
doctor on his rounds and helped dispose
of the bodies. The most heart-rending
feature OF the poisoning business was
the eagerness with which the sufferers
reached tor the medicine. Many poor
fellow, torn almost into, but perfectly
conscious, would be awaiting the doctor.
With the feeble strength he possessed,
he would raise himslf and reach forth
his hand to his slayer. OF course, the
doctor did his work as humanely as pos
sible, but it did seem like murder. He
always spoke kindly before spraying the
lips of the doomed man, who died With
out look of reproach to haunt the

Wheat continues to pour in notwith-
standing the low price. The roads lead
ing to town from all directions are COW
cred with wagons heavily loaded. The
terry boat plies continually, carrying
teams from Klickitat county. 1t is an
interesting sight to see The Dalles at
tracting products from wide. radius of
territory. The price is higher here than
any where else in the surrounding coun-
try, and with little fixing of the roads
the city is capable Of easy approach.
One of the greatest magnets in attracting
the wheat crop here is the large Touring
mill in the East End. The building of
this mill has proved of great benefit in
holding to The Dalles the trade of the
interior.

was interfered with by Brown, who
threw him to one side, saying. "Let
them alone; let them have a fair
fight" Lucas replied that it was not

Wilson, saying, "Don't let them fight;
he will kill the boy" Wilson then
separated Gallagher and Peterson and

After the first interference by Wilson
nothing was done to stop Gallagher
from assaulting Peterson, and later on
both Wilson and Brown remarked,

was walking around keeping people
away from the two fighters. Peterson
took a billiard cue from Wilson and

The Question Of Responsibility In the Mu.
nisspal satsatloa.
In attempting to deal with the un-
condition of affairs, the re-
publican aldermen have brought
upon the city, is blocking the paw
ment of all bills due for July, the
Union seeks to offer advice to the
ruling element in the council. In
one line it gravely asserts that las
affairs now are in the council the re-
sponsibility Of what passes that body
rests on the shoulders of those repub-
lican aldermen" but further down it
holds that 1.-The repu blicans in the
council should see that the load isn't
placed on their shoulders" The
conservative mind can only reconcile
these two observations by the con-
clusion that if the republican alder
men are responsible for what passes
the body and they are to see that no
load is placed upon their shoulders.
The easiest way out of the difficulty
is to get from under the load.

no business to appoint the policemen
over which the controversy has
arisen, "but having done so they are
entitled to their pay" Pursuing this
argument further, it raises the issue
as to whether the mayor or the city
should pay the policemen, but it an
swers the question in the first place
by deliberately holding the republi-
can aldermen responsible.
The Way to Fay Is to Pay.
If the republicans who now stand
in the light before the people of pub
lie obstructionists in declining to al
low pay for service actually rendered
the city, are looking to the Union for
advice, they will find that the only
way out of their present predica-
ment is to assume the responsibility
which the Union places on them, get
from under the load, and pay the
city's honest debts.
