 ESTEEMED FRIEND'-l remem- Der of having promised you inst before we left here that l would let you hear from me oc- casionally, so I will try and fulfill my promise. l would have done so before now but camp life is not an idle lie hy any means. We'll in the, first place, to give yon an idea of what army life is, l will go through with the order of the day. The first call Is at 5:lo o'clock al winch time we are supposed to get out; at o:zo tile reville call sounds at which we are supposed to be ready to fall into line and be ready for roll call; about , minutes later roll call sounds and if we are not iD ranks we get double du tv At6 the mess call sounds and we fall in line and march fo our breakfast. At 6.3O the fatigue call sounds when we clean up our tents and com pany street; at TOO the sick call sounds when we take all the sick to the hospital Then we cet a rest until 800, some times: but lately We get about 1 hours drilling. At 800 the guard mount call sounds when we put on guard duty the mum
 Der of men required of us, usu ally from 3 to 5. Guard mount is a very beautiful thing to see. After guard mount we perform different duties until l2O clock when the mess call sounds again when we fall into line and mai ch to our dinner. At 100 the orderly sergeant's call and after that we do different duties until drill call at 4:3O, then We get out and have bat talion drill until 6 o'clock. The next call is 1st retreat call at five minutes before sunset when we fall in line and the roll is called. At sunset re- treat is sounded when we are dismissed and our duties for the day are over. At 9 o'clock the tattoo call sounds at which we get ready for bed. At 9:15 taps sound and all lights must be out and no talking, This Is a light days work, so you can how much time we have for thinking about get ting home sick and such other things.
 On Sundays we have nothing but roll calls and review. We had a divisional review last Thursday. They had 5000 ! men in the review ItWas very | nice but, about the incest thing that I have got to see was a sham battle last week. There | were about 5000 men engaged | and they fought. This talk about pretty things! That was all 0. K. but rather hard work should think. One side cap | tured Col. Grant and held him prisoner of war for about 30 l minutes. He seemed to think it was pleasant. Col. Chand Ter is now Acting Brig. Gen, As 1 know of nothing more of interest l will bring this to a close.

Chickamauga, Ga, June , - J. F. Stafford, Esq, SpringdaIe, Ark. Esteemed. Friend: I have just returned with my compa ny from religious services and have about 15 minutes before supper which l will devote in writing to you.
 The boys are not yet fully equipped. Only part of them have received shoes, hats, blousps. trousers and under clothing. No arms have yet been issued The provisions have been running a little low for two or three days, but l don't think there will be any trouble along that line after to- morrow, as ample arrangements have been made.
 Many of the boys have gath cred, as relics, a considerable amount of exploded shells, bull lets, grape shot and other things used in the civil war at the battle of Chickamanga.
 c. T. Stokes slightly ruptur- ed himself one day last week and l expect he will be given au honorable discharge with an allowence of $500 per month for life. Don't think by this that George is serious. for from all appearances there is noth : ing the matter with him. He is just laid off to have d pie nic and goes where and when he pleases.
 The ladies of Little Rock presented each of the company with a bible just before We left there, and 1 tlllnk most of the boys aie using them.
 Most of the boys are anxious To leave here. either for Manilla or Cuba, but from present out look l am afraid we will not be ble to go to either.
 Well, mess call has b. en sounded so will close with best wishes for TIE NEWS and its readers.
 Respect.

THE RECULA.
TOR HAS SUNK
The Pride of The Dalles
Went Down Below
the Locks.
All on Board Saved, and the
Boat Safely Anchored.
Splendid Work of the Grew in Saw
Ing Lives of Passengers.

At 1:30 Tuesday afternoon the D. P.
& A. N. Co.'S. steamer, Regulator, was
sunk in the rapids about 200 yards be-
low the lower entrance to the canal at
Cascade Locks.
The boat was coming from Portland
with heavy load of freight and a
large passenger list, and when coming
from the Washington to the Oregon
side, preparatory to entering the
locks, the boat was caught in heavy
swell and forced against the rocks on
the Oregon side with such violence as
to knock hole in her hull. The boat
filled with water rapidly, but Capt.
Allyn and the crew main tained good
control of their wits, and succeeded in
getting line ashore and getting all
the passengers off in remarkably
short time without the slightest acci-
dent to anyone. A number of horses
on board were also saved.
The Regulator was anchored to the
shore, and is in no immediate danger of
sustaining serious injury.
The Regulator is one of the stanch-
est boats in the Northwest, and has
ever been the pride of The Dalles, for
1t has been through its agency that we
have been given terminal freight
rates, and that The Dalles has main
tained it's supremacy as the chief COM
mercial point in the Inland Empire.
Everybody here hopes that the boat
is not materially damaged, and it will
soon be running on the river again.

GEORGE Morgan Is Dead,

Geo. P. Morgan, of this city, died at
Cascade Locks Monday night, after
lingering illness of several months.
Mr.. Morgan was born in Virginia
48 years ago, and came to The Dalles
in 1882, entering the employ Of Nc
Farland & French as bookkeeper,
which position he held until the firm
went out of business. Since then he
has held many positions of honor and
trust, and at the time of his death was
serving his second term as clerk of The
Dalles school district. For Q cumber
of years he was editor OF the Wasco
County Sun, and at different times had
been connected with the editorial de.
partment of the Times-Mountaineer.
In 1885 he was married to Miss Olivia
Wallace, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. N.
W. Wallace, of Antelope, who sur
wives him.
In the death of Mr.. Morgan, this
community has lost an honorable and
respected citizen, one whom every
body held in the highest esteem and
whose death all will mourn. He was
a member of Temple Lodge, A. o. U.
W., and Mt. Hood Camp, W. of w., in
which orders he held insurance
amounting to $4,000.

The Battleship Oregon

Has made more kinds of record for
the U. S. navy in its $4,000 miles trip,
than was ever dreamed of. Judging
from the demand for it, that little 80
page, vest pocket size, army and navy
book, just published by the Northern
Pacific is making a great record too.
The requests for it reach the N. P.
passenger department at st. Paul in
large numbers from every part of the
United States. This is tribute to
wide advertising as well as to the en-
terprise of the company and the value
of the book. Mr.. Chas. S. Fee, the
General passenger agent at st. Paul,
Mimi, will send the book upon re-
ceipt of ten cents.

Cut In the Side.

The Oldest son of A. A. Jayne was
severly cut in the side this morning
about IL o'clock by young fellow
about 19 years of age named Bayard.
It seems as though Rayard who ia
canvassing for pictures was up near
Mr.. Jayne's residence and sat down
by the fence to wait for his partner,
who was coming from a different di-
rection, Several small boys gathered
around him and he was nlaying with
them. Young Jayne came up from the
inside of the fence and tickled Bayard
on the neck. Bayard who was whittl-
ing threw his arm arouno and in some
manner struck the boy with the blade
of the knife in the side. The wound
though painful is not considered
serious. A warrant was issued for
Bsyard's arrest and he Is held for ex-
before the Justice of the
Peace G. E. Bayard.

Steamer DalIes City.

The new Dalles City, which is being
constructed at Supplers ship yard in
Portland is being pushed to compile
tion as rapidly as possible. The con-
tractors want to launch the Dalles
City just as soon as convenient on ac-
count of the river falling so rapidly.
1t is expected she will be launched the
later part OF the week, and will be
ready to go on her regular run within
q couple of weeks. The new hull is
somewhat longer than the old one was,
and is built much stronger The
house has been cut in two and piece
inserted, while the machinery has
been thoroughly overhauled and is
now in 6rst class order. When the
steamer is put in service again she
will practically be new boat, and
will draw more than her usual quota
of passengers.

ANTELOPE In ASHES.
The Business Portion of the Town En-
tirely Destroyed.

The Business Portion of the Town En-
tirely Destroyed.
Monday morning about 2 o'clock
fire was discovered in the bowling
alley in conjunction with the Antelope
hotel, and it was but short time un-
til the entire structure was in flames.
The residents were aroused, but as
there was no fire protection, nothing
could be done except to carry goods to
3 place of security. 1t was but short
time until the large two-story building
used for stores underneath and Masonic
hall overhead, was in flames, and al
most Immediately the large red barn,
owned by w. D. Jones, of this city,
was il flames. The fire then crossed
the street to Silvertooth's saloon, and
and in short space of time Patter-
sons notion store and w. Bolton &
Cos immense warehouse and store
were one mass of flames. By hard work
theAntelope Herald building was saved.
From Jones' barn the fire continued
its way east and consumed Kirchhein-
er's blacksmith shop, DIR. Pilkington's
drug store. the postoffice and notion
store conducted by Mrs. John Bennett
and the furniture store of Glisan-&
Brown.
Then the large Occidental hotel
caught, and in few minutes ignited
ANAL building adjoining. Here the
fire spent itself, and at the time Chas.
Hilton passed through the place at 6 /
o'clock Monday morning. the town
was a mass of smoking ruins. These
are all the particulars that could be
learned and no information whatever
could be obtained as to the amount of
loss or the insurance carried by those
burned out.
This was an extremely bad time of
year for fire to start in Antelope, for
at this season the merchants usually
stock up very heavily on account of
the cheap rates that goods are hauled
for, during wool hauling season. No
accidents were reported and as far as
,an be learned nothing was burned
except as stated above.

sawdust.

The sheep were purchased of R
