A large number of excursionists will
spend next Sunday in Hood River, and
a more desirable place could not easily
be selected. Many who are posessers of
kcdaks will profit by the splendid op-
portunitv offered to secure numerous
snapshots; while bicycle riders and
those who enjoy driving will have a
chance to take a ride over the finest
roads in the state. The river ride on
well worth the price of the tickets, which
is but so cents. None can afford to
miss the game between our team and
the picked nine of Hood River. Tickets
are now on sale at the drug stores and
other business houses, and at the wharf
on Sunday morning.
Word was received early this morning
from Portland telling of the death OF
Rets, the youngest child of Mr.. and
Mrs. Polk Mays. Several months ago
their three children were afflicted with
typhoid fever in very bad form, and
Reta, who was about 5 years of age,
seeming to gain no strength when the
fever left her, it was thought best to
take her to the hospital in Portland.
and Mrs. Mays took her down about
three weeks ago. However, she was not
benefited thereby and died last night
about midnight. Her remains will be
brought to this city tomorrow for burial.
Much sympathy is expressed for the be-
reaved parents, who since their arrival
in this city last fall have had sickness
in the family continually, and are now
called upon to give up the pet of the
household.
1t seems that everything at Atlin is
not what it was purported to be, and
business is at a standstill. The miners
are growing diegusted at the manner
in Which the Canadian government
runs things, and on account of the un-
certainty of the laws Americans are
afraid to put in any money, for there is
no telling what will lie done. A letter
from Mr.. Butler this morning Gays that
on the day the letter as written, May
4th, the thermometer stood at 10 above,
while along some of the creeks the
ground was frozen feet deep and no
work could be done. He says that only
one man out of hundred will get his
money back. The trails are in very
bad condition and the mail which came
out that day was supposed to be the
last until the steamers run next month
A gentleman coming out recently SAID
that all the way out he saw much sick
ness. The men are compelled to ea'
snow to quench their thirst, and this
soon leads to cold and pneumonia. The
best way to 60 to Atlin seems to be tt
stay at home.

A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM.
Let's Have 1T, for We Can Do So With
No Loss and Much Gain to All

Some very important matters were
discussed last night at the meeting ofthe
board of fire delegates, which if carried
out successfully will mean much to The
Dalles and be of great benefit to her
citizens.
After the meeting was called to order
at 8 80, it was ordered that the entire
department give test drill next Thurs
day night to determine the pressure of
water at the new plug near the Wasco
warehouse. Five companies will take
part in the drill, and as many streams
of water play on the warehouse at one
time. This is splendid practice for the
department and should occur frequently.
For come lime it has been considered
that rne Dalles was sadly in need of
fire alarm system. Al present W hen the
general alarm is given much consterna-
tion is caused from the fact that no one
has any idea where the Ere is, and much
fire underwriters made proposition to
the city that if gool fire alarm system
were put in and a chemical engine
bought they would reduce the insurance
OF the city ten per cent. The question
was discussed and committee consist
ing of Messrs. j. F. Moore, ]. A. Nc.
Arthur, H. Glenn and R. E. Saltmarshe
was appointed to confer with the busi-
ness men relative to the proposition and
to place before them the idea of each
donating the reduction of one year on
their insurance to the purchasing of the
engine, hook and ladder and putting in
the alarm system. Should all coincide
with the committee and agree to sub
scribe the amount gained by the reduc-
ton on a years insurance, sufficient
amount will thus be procured to make
the necessary improvements, and the
saving thereby in future years will be
theirs.
Surely none will object to this ar
rangement, as no reduction can be OBJ
tanned in any other manner, and the
benefit can be easily forseen.
chemical engine is just what we
need. In nine CAGES ont of ten more
damage is done when the fire has scarce
ly gained start, by water than by the
fire itself. With one of these engines
one man can climb to roof or in close
proximity to the blaze, and in a short
| time put the fire out and virtually no
damage be done other than the small
| blaze produced.
just at this time there are many calls
upon our business men to aid in one pro
jet or another; but this is an excep
tional one, which can be given with nc
loss to them and much gain to all.

NOT DISINHERITED.

Cornelius Vanderbilt, jr., has not
been disinherited because of his mar
riage to Miss Grace Wilson against bis
fathers wishes. The will is not to be
probated, nor its contents made public
until young Alfred Vanderbilt, the sec
ond SOD, can reach home. He is now
in the mountains Of Japan. 1t will te
four or five weeks before he cen arrive
in New York at the quickest. The de.
cisioD was reached Saturday by the
members of the family and their law
yers at conference in Senator Depew's
Office.
These gentlemen agreed that, as AL.
fred Vanderbilt was one OF the chief
heirs 70 his fathers estate, it would be
far wiser and more considerate of his
interests to defer probsting the will un-
til he could be in New York.
A cable message was sent, telling
the young man to return to New
York with all possible speed
This Cancelled previous cable
message advising that he com
plete his tour around the world, as his
presence six weeks after the funeral
would do no good.
The entire will and codicls are in
Mr.. Vanderbilt's own handwriting. He
wrote the original document several
years ago, submitting the rough draft
to his lawyer.
Several codicis were added from
time to time. All in turn were revised
by the lawyer, that each might be in
pl oper legal form. Then they were re-
turned to Mr.. Vanderbilt, who is said
to have copied the entire will aud
codicils out again in his own hand.
1t is not q long will. Mr.. Wander
bilr had very clear ideas about the di-
vision of his vast estate, and framed
these idess in very terse English,
which left no doubt as to his intsn-
lions. He often told his lawyers that
he did not wish his will crowded with
mass of legal verbiage.
