Believed to Be a Fake.

The story published in the Idaho
Statesman of the detective who was
bound in a boat and set adrift in
Snake river, finally landing at the
Huntington bridge, is believed by the
Huntington Herald to be fake. That
paper says: "The report is regarded
by the officers here as very defective
detective story. Eldredge was here,
all right, on Friday and exhibited a
few pieces of baling wire. which, he
claimed, were used by assailants in
binding his hands and feet before they
cast him adrift in boat on the wild,
woody Snake. His story was, and is,
disbelieved by the officers, and his
whole appearance indicated that he
was hard bent upon working up a
small-sized sensation. 1t is our opin
ion that Mr.. Eldredge will bear watch
ing in his connection with the Roman
murder.

Land Grabbers.

The Moro Observer makes the follow
ing comments on this very undesirable
class of people:
ga gang of that most despicable
class on the earth known as land grab
bers, have recently attempted to jump
the sand islands formed at the mouth
of the Columbia by the jetty. The
question of acknowledging the claim
of these jumpers to the islands was
considered at the last meeting of the
state board, and the matter referred to
the encouragement. If they will
take the trouble to hunt records they
will find that in early days there was
farm at that point upon which Father
Schwatka reared his noted family.
Later on it became the property of
George Summers: then it washed
away. G. 5. Wright, as administrator
of the Summers estate, could probably
find the deeds showing possible own
ership by metes and bounds. The
land has simply returned from a
cruise in the deep sea-"

In Jail.

Eugene Guard: H. P. Hayes, the Fall
Creek incest man, was taken before JUS
tice Callison at that place yesterday and
waived a preliminary examination.
to appear before the next grand jury.
1t was impossible for him to give the
desired bonds and he was brought here
last evening and committed to the
county Jail. At the preliminary ex-
animation J. M. Williams appeared
in behalf of the state and J. E. Young
and F. G. Matteson for the defendant.

For Criminal Libel,

The Baker City Democrat has the
following:
''In the Sunday Mercury published
in Portland couple of weeks since
appeared batch of Baker City Brief
let's one of which reflected seriously
and damagingly upon Mr.. G. P. Rey-
nolds, general manager of the Hotel
Warshauer. Mr.. Reynolds has taken
steps to prosecute the publishers of
that paper on charge of criminal
libel, and he has engaged as counsel
Mr.. John L. Rand, district attorney,
and Mr.. John M. Gearin, one of the
best lawyers of the metropolis. 1t is
Mr.. Reynolds intention to leave no
stone unturned in the effort to bring
the publishers of the Mercury to an
account, and in doing so the identity
of the contemplate correspondent in
Baker City will be brought to light.
Mr.. Reynolds action is commendable
and should meet with the hearty en-
dorsement of all decent people,"

Mt. Angel College.

The commencement exercises of Mt.
Angel college, in Marion county.
which took place the beginning of
this week, were very interesting to
citizens of The Dalles and vicinity,
because of the students who reside in
Wasco county who have been in at
tendance there. This year Mr.. Henry
Bolton, of Kingsley, has graduated
with the degree of Bachelor of
Scienc, and his brother, Mr.. William
Bolton, is in the senior class, and re-
ceived a gold medal for good conduct.
Mr.. Jos. Moran, q young man from
Centerville, Wash, also received a
gold medal for good conduct. There
were also in attendance Matthew
Thour bourn, of Kingsley, and BERTHE
Baldwin, of this city.

A Sharper Arrested.


A dispatch from Goldendale, WASH,
dated June 26, contains the following:
''Sheriff Stimson arrived in Golden
dale today with J. A. Brown in his
custody. Brown, an ex-buyer and
shipper of sheep, has victimized citi-
zens OF Klickitat out of over $1,000 by
the use of fraudulent checks upon the
Commercial National bank of Port
land. Daniel O'Conncr, Klickitat's
present sheep king from whom
Brown purchased $50 head of fine NUT
ton sheep, followed the fugitive to Se-
attic. One of Browns victims was an
aged widow lady, who was victimized
ont of over $3.50. Brown, it seems,
had borne hitherto good reputation
among the stock growers. frequently
his checks have been honored for large
amounts"

GrasshOppers.

Mr.. Geo. Fl. Riddell, who has farm
about ten miles from the city, says he
was attacked by grasshoppers a few
days ago, and now they are thronging
around his place in countless millions.
Last Sunday he spent killing the
pests, and he thinks he 1essened the
number by several million; but the
next morning they did not appear
diminished in the least. Aside from
grain fields they are attacking or
particle of foliage. It is almost inn,
possible to fence against them, for
they can hop or fly over almost any
obstruction. Crickets, Mr.. Riddell
says, may be fed to hogs; but pigs will
not molest grasshoppers. Some plan
may be found out by which protection
may be had against their devastations:
but thus far farmers are powerless.

IT'S A DANDY CIRCUS.
Is the Great Syndicate Shows and Paris
Hippodrome.

Is the Great Syndicate Shows and Paris
Hippodrome.
The Butte, Montana, correspondent
of the Anaconda Standard, says the
following of the New Great Syndicate
Shows which are advertised to exhibit
here on Saturday, July 6:
''Talk about your circuses, the one
given by the Great Syndicate and
Paris Hippodrome has certainly
broken the record so far as Butte is
concerned. Such a jam as was at
tracted to the circus grounds Oh the
afternoon of the 4th was never
seen here before, and doubtless was
never seen in any city of its size. If
Butte can claim to be good judge of
any particular thing, it can certainly
claim to be good judge of circus,
and the judgment of the people who
went to the circus was that it was
show that to miss was to miss an
event, and that it was mighty good
show to see twice.
$50 great was the crowd inthe after
noon that two performances had to be
given instead of one. The circus-teht
was filled plumb to the apex at the
first performance. Not only was every
seat occupied, but standing room was
all taken. and boys climbed up on The
tent poles because there was no place
else to get.
"The management had everything
so we'll arranged, however, that the
show proceeded to the delight of all,
without any hitch or inconvenience,
except what was necessarily caused by
the terrific thunderstorm, when the
rain came down in torrents. The
had been forced to stop
selling tickets for the first perform
ance, but another was given at |
o'clock, when the big tent was again
filed.
''There was another crowded house
at the evening performance, and, as
there was no rain to interrupt, COM
plete satisfaction was given.
"The combination of performers and
artists in the Great Syndicate Show
and Paris Hippodrome is one that is
hard to surpass in any circus"

A Horrible Death.

Fred Little, about 30 years of age,
living about seventeen miles from Nc
Minnville met terrible death yester-
day. 1t appears that Little was en-
gagged in filing saw at his mill. when,
without warning, the machinery was
set in motion, and by the time that it
was stopped Little was literally sawed
to pieces.

WILL 1T BE PERMANENT?
Is the Question Daily Asked About the
New Piano House.

The advent of such tremendous
stock OF pianos and organs as the Kim
ball company are shipping to this city
causes much curiosity and speculation.
I have many questions, direct and
indirect, like the following, to which
l answer:
Is this piano house to be permanent?
Not at present.
Could not The Dalles maintain
piano house of such proportions as
this?
Not in these times, neither could any
other city double the size
You people have a mighty lot of
nerve to ship such lot of pianos in
here.
Not much; hundreds of families
would like fine pianos if they could buy
them low enough.
Don't think you can sell all these
pianos in year.
| think you are badly mistaken.
They will about all be sold this week.
Geewhiz!
No geewhiz about it. The people
want them: they are able to buy them;
they are being sold at manufacturers
wholesale prices with freight added,
and the people are going to improve
the opportunity.
1 have made sales like this in num-
ber of towns on the coast, and have
sold from one to three carloads in a
week to two weeks time.
The people saw that it was the Op-
portunity of a lifetime, and took them |
quickly and will do the same here.
1t would be impossible to maintain a
store permanently and retail at these |
prices. The expenses would more |
than eat up the profits.
just as soon as the times will justify |
it permanent store will be establish
ed at The Dalles, but instruments will |
be sold at regular retail prices, as the
prices now being offered apply on
these instruments only, and we will
not guarantee to duplicate them day
after this sale is over. Old Chronicle

ION streets. Store open till 10 o'clock

Grasping Greed.

The G. A. r. post of Roseburg offered
the S. P. Co. $500 for one passenger
coach to Oregon City and return, but
the management of the road demanded
1896. The post refused to pay that
amount, says the Rerieac, and after
wards the company sent representa-
tive to try to get them to accept the
car at their own terms, but the mem
bers were so disgusted with the COM
pany's grasping game that they re-
fused to take it at all. The result was
that only three persons went to Oregon
City from Roseburg, and the railroad
is loser by the transaction. The
same railroad managers refused to
grant reduced rates for the pioneers
reunion.

Increase of Receipts.

The net increase of receipts at the
postoffices throughout the country
during the year ending March 81, 1895,
was 81, 1895 This is shown in the
annual readjustment of presidential
postmasters' salaries made public on
the 10Th. The changes take effect
July /. The total number of pres1-
DENTAL offices is 1856. The salaries of
1857 are increased and 303 decreased.
The gross increase in the receipts was
81, 1894 ,O92, and the gross decrease $751;
139. Eight states report a decrease,
and practically all of these are in the
west.

Notice to Water Consumers.

The Water Commissioners have
ordered that the rules concerning the
use of water for irrigation be printep
and posted upon the gates of copsum-
ers so that all may understand what
the rules are. This has been done as
ordered. The great waste of water
heretofore and the limited supply,
make the enforcement of these rules
absolutely necessary. All consumers
will please take notice of these regu-
lations and in case of q violation of
the rules the water will be at once
shut off and charge of S1.O0 will be
made before again making the con-
nection. |. j. NORMAN,

Competitive Drill.

There is some talk in this city of the
4th of July committee offering a prize
or purse for the best drilled member
or company of the o. N. G. at the cell
ebration next Thursday in this city.
G. Co. has the material to compete
with any company in the state, after
it has been drilled; but the members
are actively employed in vocations
that require ten hours labor each day,
and they have not the time to perfect
themselves in discipline. A Co. at
Wasco is we'll drilled; but the members
are generally business men who have
sufficient leisure to devote their at
tention to a thorough knowledge of
military tactics. Our young men have
the ambition and muscular endurance
to learn all military maneuvres,
and if the committee will put on the
programme a competitive drill The
Dalles need not be ashamed of the
result.

More Misplaced Confidence.

The La Grande Chronicle says:
"Three carloads of potatoes were
shipped from Yakima City to Minneap-
oils some months ago on the promise
of the receiving commission dealers
that an advance of 25 cents per buslrel
would be made to the growers. This
advance was never made, but when
the statement was received of the
sales one carload netted the grower
$3.50, another carload S1.83, while the
carload shipped by Peter Gervais
brought him in debt $100.83. An ef-
fort is to be made to secure redress
from the commission men, and Mr..
Snively, who is on the case, thinks it
is the same gang that has been operat-
ing in Kittitas county, to the heavy
loss of farmers there. 1t is also re-
ported that Mr.. Pu-dy Flint shipped
thirteen carloads to Minneapolis some
months ago and has been unable to get
any accounting whatever"

PLEASE ANSWER.

Last Saturday meeting to select dele gates to the conference was held in Frs wells hall, and of that meeting and the part played by some of the parties pres- ent the Tribune, Captain Kolbs paper, had the following to say. Then Cap tain Kolb thought he had the fight won and that he would be able to prevent fusion of the free coinage pop ulist party with the single gold standard republican party. The same leader who was on deck in Erswell's hall was present Wednesday by large majority and sue ceeded in getting in his work as success fully as he had succeeded on the Saturday previous. For the benefit of those who went off after Kolb under the name of Jeffersonlan democracy, we would like the Tribune to tell us if these are still the sentiments Of Captain Kolb's paper:
 'The part performed by Jefferson last Saturday on the bona fide call upon the counties of Alabama to send their del- egates to state reform conference was largely in the character of roaring farce; the balance of the performance being beneath the level of common brawl. Before the great movement of the ton of their right of self government can take respectable footing, meetings of the kind here referred to must be absolutely out of the movement.
 Colonel Bowman did not sign the call
