Deafness Cannot Be Cured

A GhastlY Discovery.

Yesterday men at work on the fish wheels
ON the beach above the city, In an embsnk.
mapt which had washed out, found human
skeleton. 1t was only partly exposed, and
there was nothing left of the remains but
II shless bones. These were embedd ed
quito deep IN the sand, and appeared as
though they had been buried there. From
all appearances the skeleton had been ia
the ground for years, as the bones showed
that they had been subj jacted to the ele-
ments for long time. No col lecture can
be formed as to the identity of the skeleton,
and the poor fellow may have been
drowned or met his death by foul means
BtfJre Jim Cook was hanged in 1879 he
gave int,mations that some citIz Ems of The
Dalles who had mysteriously disappeared
had been murdered, and were buried on the
beach. Soon after his disclosures were
made skeleton was found in the san ], and
this may be another of the victims There
was a time in the history of The Dalles
when law and order were not respected,
and the washing awav of the beach, as hap
pened during the last food, may bring some
things to light which are hidden now.

Coaatipg on Palm Leaves

Wellesley college gnls are having gay
times nowadays, and if you see any of them in
town with battered cheeks, skinned noses and
bruised hands you need ask no questions, for
they have been coasting! Splendid opporu-
mites there are for coasting at Wellesley; there
are plenty of hills and of room right there on
the grounds. was greatly amused when they
told me about sliding down that hill exactly in
front of the college on dus,pans It all came
about tnis way:
One inventive genius did not have a sled
and did not know where to borrow one; but the
crust was perfect and Of short duration, SO while
she stood, with her task of sweeping just con.
cluded, with dustpan in hand, the thought
"Why not use this dastpanf" came like an in
spiration, and out she skipped to the hill and
down she sped, seated in state on her dustpan.
The news spread and the craze grew until
every dustpan on the premises was well worn
out. After that, palm leaf fans were pressed
into service, and it is whispered that pillows
have now and then proved the most agreeable
and satisfactory Of conveyances.

The general appropriation bill passed by
the late legislature carries about 81 1885,
oOO-pretty big for an economical session.
This indicates that the total appropriations
of the session will be over 50 500. 600. The
general appropriation bill of last session
carried 81, 226. 1872 so, which was S39. .64l.4s
less than the one just reported. This in

Inceutiiarism.

Last night, soon after O'Clock IAN alarm
of fire was sounded and the cause was
found to be fire in the city pest house
in the pines. 1t was coon enveloped in
flames. and as it was far removed from
any fire plug the destructive element
had full sway. In little while crowd
from the city congregated at the scene,
and it was found that the o. R. & N. Cos
pest house had also been fired. Some
inhammable material had been placed un-
der the sill OF the building. and it was
only by arduous efforts of some bystand-
ers that it was saved from conhagation.
While the men were at work putting out
the incipient flames some in the
crowd OF persons standing around said,
"Let it burn. We want no small pox
here" and, when inquiry was made for a
bucket of water they groaned ani Missed.
The first building soon went down in a
sea OF flames, Illuminating the horizon
for considerable distance. As the fiery
element leaped high into the air. it gave
a weird and picturesque appearance to
the surroundings. Deep in the wildwood
could be seen crowds of spectators, who
were brought in full view by the illumi-
nation. The pine trees around the
building caught fire, and the little
tongues of flames climbed to the very top,
only exhausting their strength when
every dry branch and leaf were consumed.
At one time it seemed likely that the
forest would suffer from the fierce fury
of the flames, and that the trees would
spread the destruction. But they were
too green to burn. and with the single
building no further damage was caused.
This was undoubtedly the work Of
incendiaries, who. by this means at
tempted to prevent the board of health
from carrying out their plans for the
safety of the city from the contag!on of
small pox. The other building was
saved from sharing the same fate by the
marshal placing guard around it during
the night. This scare about nall pox
is senseless, as there is very little, if any,
danger of it spreading, and residents in
the bluff addition are as safe as other
residents in the city from the disease.

Juvenile Temple Concert.

At the Baptist church last evening an
entertainment was given by the Juvenile
Temple of this city, which attracted a
large audience and gave general satisfac-
ton to those present. There were songs
and recitations, and each Dumber was
loudly applauded Worthy of especial
mention was a drill executed by class
of young ladies, who wore black dresses,
white aprons and red caps, with dust
pans and dust cloths hanging from the
belt. The military maneuvers were ex-
ecuted with brooms. and the movements
were in perfect unison. Lieut. Col. J.
