The optical Jewelry Company.


1t is always a pleasure to see such
places of business as that of the Daut
Optical Jewelry Co. being started in our
city, for that is truly one that is not
usually found in place the size of The
Dalles. First, one is attracted by the
immense chow window, dressed with
the greatest of taste, and filled with the
finest of j-welry, clocks, etc. Then as
you step insiue it is surprise to find
room 6Ox24 in sizn, around one side of
which ls arranged show cases, displaying
jewelry, optical goods, clocks, and in
fact every thing in that line. At the
back an optical room is partitioned off
with a railing, at the top of which cur
tains will be placed. SO that psssers by
cannot gaze therein. This room is neat
ly and completely fitted up with every
apparatus for testing the eyes. The floor
of the entire building is covered with
pretty linoleum, while the furnishings
are the best to be found in such stores.
Daut & Stoufer have stock of goods,
from which one can select anything they
may desire as readily as they could in a
store in any of our large cities. Call
and see their goods.

Rests Benea,h the sweetest Flowers.

AS might be expected, very large
mum Der of friends attended the funeral
OF the late Mrs. R. F. Gibbons this after
noon at 2 80 O'Clock at the residence on
Fourth and Liberty street. Nothing
could be more fitting than that there
should be profusion of flowers, for dur
ing her life time it was noticeable fact
that wherever her lot was cast there she
surrounded herself with the sweetest of
blossoms, and on the altar of the Congre-
gational church Sunday morning was a
beautiful bouquet of white peonas,
which was an offering from her, and
which was placed on her grave this
afternoon, with the numerous tokens
from her many friends, among which
were bouquets from each member of the
Ladies' Aid Society.
The Congregational choir sang very
sweetly zone Sweetly Solemn Thought
and DIR. Doan sang a colo, "Thy Will Be
Dor e." At the close of most impress
sive and eloquent eulogy on the life OF
the departed by Rev. Poling, her pastor,
the choir again sang a hymn which was
an especial favorite of Mrs. Gibons', en-
titled "Hold Thou My Hand"
The following friends acted as pail
bearers, tenderly consigning to her last
resting place all that remained of one
who was so universal favorite: Messrs
j. NJ. Marden, ]. P. McInerny, W. l..
Bradshaw, J. B. Crossen, J. W. French
and 8. L. Brooks.
She now rests beneath coverlet oi
flowers, which were her favorite nm
panions in life and the last to remain
with and watch over her after death.

tention was paid to the wound until it
began to swell and became very sore
1t was then reopened and a course of
treatment begun. However, it grew
worse and blood poisoning has set in.
Yesterday he was very dangerously

The most interesting topic of con-

Columbia river, and the question as to
whether or not it is to encroach upon

rise of IL since yesterday. At Lewiston
the Snake has fallen Ia, and reports say
the weather is much cooler in that sec
ton. Howe yer, they also inform us
that tomorrow the Columbia will stand
at 35, and will raise three feet before
Thursday, on that date reaching the Ss
