formation as possible in limited space.
With this in view, where noun, adjective
and verb are all obviously connected in
meaning, usually one only has been in
serted. The volume will thus be found
to contain the meaning of very many
more words than it processes to explain.
To those who already have diction-
ary, this book will commend itself be-
cause it is compact, light and conven-
lent; to those who have no dictionary
whatever. it will be invaluable. One
may be secured by writing to the above
concern, mentioning this paper, and en-

hope further that all the good acts which
they have performed during the past
year will come before them in bold re-
lief, like the great American turkey
which they will probably enjoy at the
midday meal, and that their misdeeds
will disappear, like the same turkey as

he hopes to have ready in the early
spring, as soon as the snow thaws, so
that they will have sufficient water. He
does not think it advisable for people
to rush into this section, as the small
mineral belt is all taken up and they
would find very few claims worth any

A BAD SLIDE.
One Man killed and Two Seriously In
Jured.

A slide in which one man lost his life
and two were seriously injured, occurred
near tunnel No. 8, on the o. r. and N.
yesterday.
The man who was killed was John
Joice, a laborer about 55 years of age.
He was working with some other men
when the rocks fell, and it seems that as
he was STOPPING over some of the rocks
struck him on the back of head, fractur-
ing his skull and inficting injuries from
which he died instantly. He was dug
out as soon as possible, but before the
rocks were removed from his body he
was dead.
The injured men were Tom Corrol
and S. Malcom. They were brought to
this city on special and DIR. Doane was
called to attend to their injuries. He
found that no bones were broken, but
they received serious bruises from fall
ing rock. They were sent to Portland
this morning for treatment.
An inquest was held over the remains
of Joice this morning and the following
verdict was rendered:
THE DALLEs, Or, Dec. 81, 1897.
We, the jury, empaneled by j. NJ. Fill
loon, acting coroner of Wasco county,
Or, to sit IN an inquest upon the facts
surrounding the death of a person whose
body is now before us, after having
listened to the testimony given by the
different witnesses called and sworn,
! find as follows:
That the name of the deceased was
John Joice, native of Ireland, of the
age of about fifty or sixty years, and 30
! far as we are able to learn was a single
man at the time of his death and prob
ably has sister living In San Francisco,
California; that the accident which
caused his death happened on the Both
day of December, 1897, at or near tunnel
No. 8. on the line of the o. r. & N. Co.
in Wasco county, Or; that the accident
which caused his death was due to rocks
falling from bluff under which he was
working, and rock or rocks falling on
him and causing instant death.

The Tournament Ended.


Last night the bowling tournament
ended, with twelve games out of the six
teen in favor of the Umatilla House
bowlers. In the eight games played on
the club alleys the club team won but
one, while in the last eight, played on
the Umatilla House alleys, they won
three, which goes to prove that they can
do better bowling on the outside alleys
than they can on their own or that there
was a marked improvement in their
playing during the tournament, which is
very likely to be the reason, since the
members of the club team practiced
more and with greater care than they
had heretofore.
The results for the four games played
last night were as follows:
Club Umatilla
PA. ...... First Game .24S
263 Second Game .229
