Perils of the Snake.

Last week as a prospector was float
ing down Snake river on a rudely con-
structed raft, which served the pur-
pose of a boat, en- route to the Seven
Devils and some of the numerous bars
below Hunti agJon, he had to pass the
placer mine of Mr.. Ruckman at the
mouth of Powder river. Mr.. Ruck-
man has large wheel that hoists the
water out of snake river into bar he
ia mining. In some unaccountable
manner the prospector who is a Dutch
man. allowed his raft to get into the
current, which drew the raft and the
Dutchman into the hole. In few
seconds the whole outfit was ground
through, blankets, rocker, grub. Dutch
man and all. Strange as it may seem
the man escaped with about enough
clothes on him to wad shotgun, a
wetter but wiser man. The balance
of the outfit was swept down the stream.
The only explanation the Dutchman
gave was, "Mine Gott! Dot vas hell"

Owing to the change of administra-
tion. commissioner Hermann has ap-
pointed Miss Annie Nj. Lang chief
clerk of the land office to supersede G.
G. Gibbons, and Miss Lang has filed
her orth of Office and assumed the
duties of chief clerk today. The duties
of the office are not new to Miss Lang.
for during the time her father, the late
Col. Lang, was receiver she was his
private clerk, hence the new appointee
is thoroughly competent in every re-
spect. Her appointment cannot but
meet with the approval of the patrons
of the office, for it is not only just
recognition of her competency, but is
a compliment to the memory of her de-
ceased father, who was prominent
republican during his lifetime, always
taking live interest in the welfare of
that party. If the administration con-
tinues to exercise as good jud gment in
filling other federal Offices in Oregon
as has been shown in this instance,
democrats can find no cause for CON-
plant.

AS the clock struck 10 this forenoon
Wilson II. L. Brooks breathed his last
at the home of his uncle, S. L. Brooks,
on Third street. Last March Mr..
Brooks was taken i'll. but after treat
meht of few weeks in hospital at
Portland supposed he was cured,
though the germs of the dread disease
consumption were deeply seated. He
came to The Dalles three months ago
and the physicians pronounced his case
hopeless, and he has since then await
ed the final termination.
Mr.. Brooks was born in Chehalis,
Wash, 26 years ago. and until stricken
with fatal disease was one of the~lead-
ing young men of LOWS county, being
a close student and a gifted public
speaker. He leaves father and one

A Merchant Must Do what He Adyertises
If Holds Trade.
John Wanamaker once said that the
secret of his success in business was
the result of advertising and always
doing what he promised in his adYer-
tisements. He always pursued this
course, and as result whatever you
read in his announcements you could
depend upon. This course is also pur
sued by the Great Northern Furniture
store, and is proving a success in that
business. When this establishment
came to The Dalles it announced it
would reduce the price on all house
furnishing goods from 20 to 40 per
cent.
This seemed startling reduction,
but everyone who has priced the goods
a: this store has been convinced of the
truthfulness of the statement. When
one can get handsome bedroom sets
for SIS to S35 he knows he is not pay
ing Klondike prices, and when he can
get cook stove for So to $40, parlor
set for SO to $40 and other furniture aL
like figures, he knows the Great North
ern Furniture store has kept its word.
1t will continue to do in the future as
it has done in the past, and whoever
buys there may rest assured that he is
getting the best values for the least
money.

TO CURE DYSPEPSIA.
A New Remedy Which viii do IL.

New Eemedy " Which viii do It.
Chronic dyspepsia is considered by
many people to be nearly if not quite
incura Bile. No good reason can be
given why they Think so except tha:
| perhaps they have tried various
remedies without much, if any benefit,
bat the progress n every branch OF
medicine has been such that among
| others lasting cure for indigestion IN
lis chronic form as well as temporary
has been discovered and is now placed
before the public stri=tly on its merits
as a permanent cure for all stomach
troubles or difficulties with the dtges-
tive organs.
This new treatment is called Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, being put up in
tablet form so as to be easily taken
and also to preserve it's good qualities
for an indefinite length of time.
Thisremedy has produced surprising
effects in the worst forms of indiges-
tion, and in many cases where ordinary
remedies failed to give even relief.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have fully
cured.
The splendid results from using this
preparation are owing to the fact that
it is prepared and intended for dyspep-
a aud SION ach troubles only. 1t is
not cure-all like SO many advertised
remedies. claiming to cure everything |
under the sun, but It is claimed that it |
is certain cure for dyspepsia and |
anyone suffering from any form of in
digestion cannot fail to get permanent
relief and cure from its use.
II is so prepared aud the ingredients
are of such a nature that when the
tablets are taken into the stomach
they digest the food no matter whether
the stomach is in good working order
Or not. You get sustenance and
TO mind and body by reason
Of the food being properly digested
and at the same time the much abused
stomach is allowed to rest and recuper-
ate.
Notwithstanding the great benefits
10 be derived from Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, the price is but SOC for full
ized package and all druggists sell
hem.

A Spirited Runaway.

Last evening James Hannah was
pulling up the cut on Union street
with load of wood when the king
bolt of his wagon gave way, letting
the front wheels pull out from under
the wagon. This frig ghtened his horses
and they started to run, dragging Mr..
HanDan off the wagon. He clung to
the lines for a time, but the gait was
too rapid for him and he was compelled
to let go. Freed from a driver, and
with nothing to impede their speed,
the horses dashed up Union street to
Prof. Gavin's new residence, then
chased around through different streets
until they brought up on an electric
light pole near George Williams
place. No material damage was done,
but the runaway team gave the resi-
dents of the bluff considerable fright
as they dashed through the streets in
that section.

THEY CHOKED THE WOMEN.
The Outcry Brought Help and an Attempt
ed Robbery Was Foiled.


ed Robbery Vas Foiled.
What is supposed to have been a
bold attempt to rob farmer of the
money he had received from the sale of
his wheat crop occurred Friday night
on the farm of William Collins. who
resides in this city, says the Corvallis
Times. The farm is located north of
Wells adjoining the Wiles farm. and
is occupied by Harry Griffin. Last
Friday Griffin sold his wheat in Inde-
pendence. and returned home in the
afternoon with the cash received for
the grain. A man named Smith and
his family happened to be at the Grit
fms on visit, and that night, for
lack of room in the house, Mr.. Griffin
aud Mr.. Smith slept in the barn.
About midnight Mrs. Griffin and Mrs.
Smith, who. with one child, occupied
the same bed 10 the house were awak-
ened by rough hands clutching their
throats. In the dim light they saw
UuS VI U" ~ uCu OCOoi0Cs
and by dint of the struggles and cries
of the two women the child was awak-
ened, aud the outcries that followed
drove the intruders from the room.
The screams from the house quicxly
brought the Two husbands from the
barn only few yards away, and the
episode ended in the disappearance of
the thieves aud the entire miscarriage
of their errand. so far as capturing the
farmers wheat money was concerned.
The following morning the tracks of
the intruders were found in the door
yard and in the road, and it is popular
ly supposed in the neighborhood that
the men heard of the wheat salo aad
followed Griffin tn his home.

into his waistcoat pocket, and march
ing up to the desk. put down his little
"V" and made nice little speech, in
which he told how glad be was to be
with his brother Elks, and ended by
inviting them to come and hear him
preach the next Sunday evening.
Some one moved that the Elks accept
the Invitation and go in "a body to

The next Sunday evening the front
pews of the church were filled with

button was much heavier than usual,
and the Elks voted their reverend
brother all right.

Wednesday was a record breaker in
the number of new cases of yellow
fever at New Orleans, while the deaths
equalled in number those of any day
since the fever was first discovered in
the city. Twentyfour new cases aud
five deaths were reporteu. There are
various reasons given for the spread of
the disease, but the principal ones are
again, and owing to the much wider
field to cover, the board of health has
had some difficulty in getting every
house as closely guarded as was pos
