OUR BOYS AND GIRLS.


oh, for glimpse Of a natural boy
A boy with freckled face,
With forehead white meath tangled hair
And limbs devoid of grace;
Whose feet toe in, while his elbows flare;
whose knees are patched all ways;
who turns as red as a lobster when
You give him word of praise;
boy who was born with an appetite;
Who seeks the pantry shelf
To eat his "piece" with resounding smack
who isn't gone on HIMSELF
Robinson Crusoe reading boy
Whose pockets bulge with trash;
Who knows the use of rod and gun
And where the brook trout splash.
It's true he'll sit in the easiest chair,
With hat on his tousled head;
That his hands and feet are everywhere,
For youth must have room to spread.
But he doesn't dub his father " old man."
Nor deny his mothers call,
Nor ridicule what his elders say.
Or think that he knows 1t all,
rough and wholesome natural boy
OF a good oldfashioned clay;
God bless him. If he's still on earth,
For he'll make man some day.

IN GENERAL
when She'll Wish She Wasn't New.

When her dutys manifolded,
And her hours of ease are few,
VIII a change come DER the spirit
OF the woman who is "new2"
When she's drawn upon jury,
Or is drafted for the wars,
VIII she like her " freedom "better
Then the " chains " she now abhors2
When she's running for an office
And gets cleft" and has the blues,
Won't she wish that she was back in
The oppressed " old woman's shoes2
When the ship OF state she's steering
Mid storm of mad abuse,
Won't she wish that for the ballot
She'd ne'er thought she had a use7
When she finds that she is treated
Like man." o, tho she's longed
For Just that, won't she be tempted
Oftentimes to think she's wronged2
When no man e'er gives his seat up
In car. or deigns to hold
Her umbrella when it's raining.
Won't she wish that she was old?"
Won't she think the men" just horrld,"
Left to hustle for herself
Where she's looked on as a rival
In the race for power and pelf?
When mans reverence no longer
Is accorded as her due,
When he treats her as brother,
She'll be sorry that she's newt

SUDDEN DEATH.
Lester Goodenough. at Sprague Landing,
Is Found Dead in His Bed.

Lester Goodenough. at sprague Landing,
Is Found Dead in His Bed.
Mr.. Lester Goodenough, son of the
late Capt. Goodenough, who was q
pilot ON the Columbia river for a long
time, died very suddenly last Wednes-
day morning at Sprague Landing on
Wind River, about forty miles west of
The Dalles. He had an eruption on
his face, which he thought would de-
velop into boil, and his grandparents
tried to induce him to sleep at the
house Tuesday night, instead of at
the cabin about 200 yards distant: but
he refused and said he would bathe his
head in cold water to relieve him from
headache, from which he had suffered
for several days. He always ate his
meals at the house; but had slept at
the cabin alone for some time, and
nothing was thought of his desire to
remain. Wednesday morning when
his grandfather went to call him to
breakfast he found him dead in bed
with wet towel on his head. DIR.
Woods, of the Cascade Locks, was
called, and pronounced the cause of
death the bursting Of an abscess on
the brain. The young man was aged
about 21 years, and was of such
genial disposition that he did not leave
an enemy behind him. The remains
were brought to the city on the boat
last night, and this morning they were
inferred beside those of his father in
the Catholic cemetery. His stepfather
and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Nesler, Mr..
J. 81. Monahan, his uncle, and Chaun.
cey his brother were the relatives pre-
sent at the funeral. The grandparents
were so prostrated by the shock that
it was impossible for them to attend.

Fatal Wound.

The report received here of the acci-
dental wounding of the boy above Pi-
lot Rock, it now appears, contained
but part of the facts, says the Pendle-
ton Tribune. Later news from Pilot
Rock is to the effect that M. B. Scott,
who resides on the east fork of Birch
creek, about eight miles above Pilot
Rock, was out hunting with his To-
year-old son Stewart. The boy was on
horseback and the father, who was on
foot, attempted to hand him the rifle
to carry, but in doing so the weapon
was in some way discharged, the bullet
tearing its way through the boys face,
and, it is believed, severing the jugu-
lar vein. At any rate the wound was
of such character that before sur
geon could be summoned from Pilot
Rock the lad was dead. This was on
Sunday, and the funeral took place on
Monday.

by ipdissoluble bonds of affection.
This was the fifth visit she had mads
to her children in this city, and on her
death.bed she was attended by her son
DR.. VIM. Tackman ard daughter-Mrs.
Chas. Schmidt. Mrs. Theo. Prinz was
in camp at Stevenson, Wash, and it
was impossible to reach her by tele.
graph or telephone. The blow will be
sad affection on her, as when she left
no serious or fatal result was appre.
hended of her mothers sickness.
Aside from the son and two daughters
in this city Mrs. Tackman has two
married daughters in Bellevue, Iowa,
where she has lived for many years,
having immigrated there from Ger
many in 1913. The remains will be
taken back to Iowa for interment,
where they will be laid to rest beside
those of her beloved husband, who de-
parted this life about twelve years ago.
The death of this estimable lady will
be regretted by many outside of the
circle of her relatives, as during her
visit to The Dalles she has made many
warm and lasting friends in this COM
munity, who will extend to the family
their tenderest sympathy in their af-
Fiction.

BOYD, Aug. 5, 1895.
Editor TINE sMoUNTA1SkRR:
Our little town has taken quite a
boom of late. Mr.. G. 81. Southern,
our worthy postmaster, has had part
of his place laid of in town lots, which
are to be sold at very reasonable fig
ures, and several lots have already
been taken.
Boyd is beautifully situated on the
right bank of Fifteen Mile, being a
quarter of mile back from the creek,
and is on the Canyon City road, being
twelve miles southeast of The Dalles.
Besides the general merchandise
business, which is being carried on by
G. 81. Southern, and blacksmith shop
owned by w. II. Pugh, the following
persons will put up buildings and do
business here at Boyd: w. Williams
will establish a drug store; w. h.
Pugh will erect new and larger
blacksmith shop, also large and
handsome residence: the Ward Bros.
will build large public hall and will
also establish their lumber yard here.
Their present location is Dufur. ].
Darnielle will run feed yard for the
benefit OF freighters and teamsters,
and Sherman Baker will erect new
residence. Besides these improve
ments Mr.. Southern has engaged J. D.
Bell to run delivery wagon for the
benefit of his patrons. We understand
that certain parties contemplate build
ing large and commodious hotel for
the convenience of the travelling pub
lie. A large school house will be
erected and graded school estab-
lished here.
A very cordial invitation is extended
to all to come and help us in our new
undertaking as we think it is worthy
of great deal of attention. ANON.

TERRIBLE SUFFERING.
Man Shot in the Arm, and Walks to the
Locks. q Distance of Seventy Miles.

We are informed that Mr.. Mozart
and companion arrived at the Locks
Yesterday from hunt in the mount
aims, ana that Mozart was in terribly
wounded condition. 1t appears that
when about seventy miles from the
Cascades the revolver carried by Mr..
Mozart's comrade was accidentally dis
charged, the ball passing through the
feshy part of Mozaru's arm. The man
becoming alarmed, left his horse and
ran to Mozart to attend to the wound.
When he did all he could to relieve
his sufferings he found that both ami
mails had escaped into the Businesses of
the mountains, and, after fruitless en-
deavors, it was impossible to recapture
them. In this condition they were
forced to walk to the Locks, and, al
though the accident happened Sunday,
it was yesterday about 10 o'clock be-
fore they arrived at the Cascades.
Gangrene had set in, and the wound
was in a horrible condition from fly
blows. Mozart's life was despaired of
for some time, but when the Regulator
left there were hopes of his recovery.
We did not learn the names of both
men, but Mr.. Mozart is nephew of J.
G. Day, and has been resident of the
Cascade Locks for some time and is
well known in that community.

COAL.
A Rich Deposit Found Within Few
Miles Of The Da1les, Which May be
Easily Worked.


Miles Of The DaI1es, Which May be
Easily Worked.
The region in the vicinity of this
city has been excited on the coal ques-
tion for several years. Specimens of
this fuel have been found near The
Dalles at different times: but no we'll
developed vein has been discovered
yet. The editor of this paper has been
imbued with the idea, more, or less,
that this region, perhaps, might rival
Pennsylvania or other states some day
With its export Of coal, together with
its other natural resources. He has
always been anxious for items in rela-
tion to deposits OF this material, and,
when Mr.. Charles Schultz dropped into
the Office yesterday with sack con-
tanning what he said was as good coal
as was ever taken from the ground in
Pennsylvania, he was very much ex-
cited. Schultz said the vein was we'll
defined, sometimes foot to three feet
in diameter, was easily discerned and
situated near Mosier with good
wagon road to and from the place, Mr..
Schultz would not state whether it was
anthracite or bituminous, but said it
burned we'll and had good heating
qualities. There was an abundance OF
the material; in fact the woods around
Mosier were full of it. The veins he
said had a downward and upward pitch,
and would require little or no tunnell-
ing to bring the coal to the surface.
At this point our Imagination began
to roam the airy fields of fancy, and
we pictured The Dalles as the Chicago
of the northwest in a few years, with
an open river to the sea, and enough
of this fuel to supply the continent.
The sack was held tight by Mr..
Schultz; but after earnest entreaty he
opened it to verify every statement he
had made, and there we beheld as fine
a specimen as ever was seen anywhere
of-charcoal.

sYMES Is CAPTURED.
He Confesses to Killing Conlee But Says
It Was In Self-Defense.

He confesses to Killing oonlee But Says
It Was In self-Defense.
A. J. Symes, who killed Lew Conlee
at Sprague, has at last been captured,
and to a representative of the press he
has confessed his guilt Symes has
been working for farmer near Mis-
soula, Montana, and part of the time
was herdipg sheep. He was thought
by the farmer to resemble the picture
sent out by the authorities for the cap
ture of Symes, and he arrested him
after being made deputy sheriff for
that purpose. McClay. the farmer,
went home to where the herder, who
gave his name as Frank Davis, was at
work, and asked him to go the ranch
and get team. Symes became suspi-
cious and refused to 60. He was we'll
armed and so McClay sat down and
picked up piece of scantling and
commenced whiting it. Symes turned
away, when McClay sprang on him
and felled him with the scantling. dis
armed him and took him to Missoula.
Symes was badly injured, and to
Spokesman RerielD representative con-
fessed he killed Conlee. Symes said:
II did it in self-tlefense. Some stray
hogs came to my ranch and I took
them up. The owner wanted them,
but I refused to give them up till the
charges for corralling we're paid. A
conspiracy was formed to arrest and
kill me.
Conlee arrested me on the road; he
became abusive and called me hard
names. Said he: Now I've got you
where I want you,' and fourished a
gun in my face. dared him to Shoots
He did so, but made my horse rear
and he missed me.
81 had gun hidden in my shot
pocket and l said: Now, old man, it's
my turn and l began to pump it into
him and kept pumping till he fell.
Yes he was dead; he could not live
after got done with him. I skipped
for Clearwater and Montana"

A Unioue Cane.

Mr.. T. ]. Driver, in his recent visit
to Walla Walla, received present
from one Of the wardens in the peni-
tentiary of one of the most beautiful and
artistic canes that we have ever seen.
1t is made from cattle hoofs and horns,
and these have been cut in small
circles so as to closely follow each
other that the dividing line can hardly
be discerned. In the center is q steel
rod, and this adds firmness to the
stick. The pieces Of hoofs and horns
are so skilfully matched that they
form perfect mosaic. and the cane is
truly a work of art. Mr.. Driver values
the cane very highly; but if he ever
becomes tired of life, and desires to be
remembered by forlorn and perse-
cuted member of the editorial profes.
sion be can will that cane to the
author of these lines, and we will as
sure his widow and orphans that he
will have an obituary notice OF which
Jack the Ripper or the Klan of
Afghapistan would feel proud.
