the best authorities on the wheat

without foundation. The rains have

done no injury, a? they have not been

continuous, and have dried up beforedoing any harm.

A. R. Wilcox, the well knownGrass Valley sheepman, is in the city.

Be says that his sheep which are in

the Cascade mountains in Skamaniacounty, Washington, are not doing as

well as might be expected on account'

of the heavy rains. While the grass

is good on the ranee mutton sheep do

not seem to lay on fat as readily as

might be expected and Mr. Wilcox" attributes it to tho above cause.

Latest reports from Prineville arethat Furnell, the murderer of ThomasMorran, is still at large and is not theinnocent man he is said to be, oise he

would have long ago given himself up

. time to escaped and he has probablysucceeded in so doing.

Another fire alarm was turned in atabout 10 o'ecock yesterday morningand the department turned out inquick order. It was a false alarm,

however, and was given by someonewho seen smoke rising from the roofof French & Co. bank building. Itappears that the girl who works in thetelephone office had a fire In the stove

l.ninc nitrht and as there were

some large chunks that were smolderiog it caused someone to believe thatthe building was afire.

The lecture by Rev. L Conradi atSt. Peter's church last night was

largely attended by people of all creedsand was thoroughly appreciated byevery one present. Father Conradihas spent over thirty years in missionary work in India, among the Chinese,in the Nez Perce Indian reservationand among lepers on the island of

aionarv work in India in the nearfuture.

The committees which haye beenappointed to sell tickets for the fire-

men's ball began work today in theirrespective districts, and are meetingwith splendid success. Everyone whohas been asked have made generousdonations and it is now evident thatthe boys will make a substantial sumfrom the ball. This is indeed gratify-ing as they need every cent they canraise to purchase the necessary articlesto fight fire, and since the boys wb

are no more interested than any on

else are doing so much It Is Indeed tbdutv of every one of us to help themall we can.

Mr. Summers tne mining expert.who has been sent from this city toinvestigate some coal mining pro- -pects on the Columbia river nearAstoria, returned yesterday andQuite enthusiastic. He states thatwhile the mine has not yet been opened up, there is enough in sight to convince him that it is a valuable findHe wfll in all probability be appointedsuperintendent of the niine and thework of opening up will begin in ashort time. The outcroppings of aneight inch vein has been discoveredand much more will be unearthedwhen the tunnel is run into the mountain.

The members of the hook and ladder company, who will give thesociety event of the season, the grandball, on September 15 have) decided todivide the town up into districts andappoint a committee in each districtto sell tickets. They will begin operations in earnest today and no one willbe overlooked. Still if they shouldfail to call on anyone we hope he willnot feel slighted and on the otherhand will show his good will bycalling around and purchasingticket without solicitation on the partof the committee. It is only once in alife time that an opportunity is offeredto contribute to so good a ciuse andwe hope no one will let this chanceslip.

Parties coming over from Klickitatcounty state that the road between theferry landing and the top of the mountain is in better shape than ever beforeat this time of year. This is indeed agood thing for The Dalles as manywho have heretofore hauled theirgrain to Lyle and Columbus on ac-

count of the poor condition of thisroad will haul their produce to thiscity. A good road leading to anytown from a farming community increases . business, ana tne businessmen of The Dalles owe much to Mr.Gllmore, supervisor of this road forputting it in such shape and (keepingit so weli repaired. The heavy hauling over the road may have a tendancyto put the road in bad shape and ifsuch is the case the business men ofthis city should volunteer to raisefunds for any necessary Improvement.

Sunday the fall season for salmonfishing commenced and the fishermenall along the river, who were soanxiously awaiting the day when theycould resume operations, began workin earnest. Many were figuring on avery heavy run of salmon and to a

great extent have been disappointeda there is not the fish in the riverthat they figured on. Eeuferr. Bros.are operating low water wheels andseins, but as yet are not getting sufficient salmon to keep their canneryrunning over half the tim3. Authorit-ies on fishing state that a dry fall willdo much damage to the industry, asalmon never run well when the water

is clear and withoutfall rains such illbe the case.

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

Ueorge l!ron, of 1'ortland. Drowned in

the Slouch This Morning.

A sad case of drowning occurred inthe slough about a mile above the cityat 10:30 Saturday. It appears thatCarl and Earl Rinehart, a little fellownamed Pearson, George Brown, theboy who was drowned, and severalother youngsters went up to theslough to go swimming.

All the boys except George Brownwere on one side of the slough, whilehe was opposite to them and but ashort distance away, as the slough is

quite narrow. After removing hi9shoes and stockings he waded in up tohit knees and then went out and removed the remainder of bis c.otbing.He then took a board to assist him tofloat, as be could not swim, and beganwading out. The boys on the opposite shore cautioned him not to go

too far but he, unconscious of his dangerkept on wading into deeper waterwhen he suddenly slipped off a rock orsandbank and sank. His little companions were powerless to help himand he was dead before any assistancereached the spot. The first grownperson on the scene was C. B. Cushing who was going up the river bunt-ing and he heroically went in at therisk of his own life to rescue the littlefeliow. It was too late, however, asthe poor boy bad been in the wateralmost half an hour when Mr. Cusblngreached him and life was extinct.

The Rinehart boys immediatelycame to town for a doctor, but the ladwas past all medical aid. Mr. Cush'ing did all in his power to bring theboy to, but after determined effort itwas plain that it was too late.

George Brown, was the son of Mr,

and Mrs. A. Brown, of Portland, whowere here for a few days visiting thefamily of Mr. M. J. Pearson. He was

ten years and eleven months, old, andwas a bright inteilL'om little fellow,and bis suddan and untimely deathindeed a sad blow to his bereavedparents, rrho are almost distractedwith grief and have the sympahty ofthe entire csrnmunity.

Tiie remains were brough toundertaking parlors where

they will be prepared for burial andsent to the home of the parents inPortland on the early morning traintomorrow.

quaintances and all the congratulationsthat the groom receives for winningthe heart and hand of such a highlyesteemed young lady are indeed merit-ed. They will take a short weddingtrip to Seattle and Victoria and returnhome on the 11:30 train next Saturdaynight, and it is more than likely thatthe young men will turn out ej massewith base drums, shotguns, tin cansand other chariyari paraphernalia towelcome the young couple to TheDalles where they will make theirfuture home.

THE TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.

Report of the Closing KxerciRes of a Successful Meetiug.

After a brief recess work was resumed by singing.

Mrs. E M. Wilson spoke briefly andto the pointon "The Youth's Compan-ion." She highly estimated the valueof this paper. She says that its chiefvalue lies in the perfection of its En-

glish and authentic information.R. L. A I lard read a paper on Text

books, their use and abuse. He brieflyoutlined the essential features of theup to date text and pointed out a fewof the flagrant abuses of texts by "textbook slaves." In the following discussion question were asked whichbrought forth the fact that teachereare strenously trying to free them-selves from the text-boo- k habit.

H. L. Howe read an interesting paperon "Lear ing by Doing." His papercontained good food for reflection,He illustrated very neatly the ludicrousness of cramming students withour own pet theories and expectingthem at once to grasp it in its fullness

Miss Rajina Campbell read an excellent paper on "Neatness andEconomy" She offered many goodsuggestions along this line, which, ifthey were carefully carried out wouldachieve success in keeping schoolrooms in general in better condition.

F. B. Barnes, in his subject "HowMuch Business Education Should beTaught in the Common School"touched upon a much felt want amonggraduates from a good many of ourschools, that is the lack of any practical business education. He says thathe believes that the time is comingwhen manual tools will accompany thestudent along with bis books ioto theschool rooms and that the couatrywill be the betur for it. He read anexcellent paper. Here the instituteadjourned until evening.

EVENING SESSION.

The evening session convened in theassembly room of the High Sboolbuilding. A very large attendancewas noted. The session opened with avocal solo by Miss Elizabeth Bonnrendered in the most excellent style,This was followed by the reading of abright, strong paper entitled "Character" by P. W. Kellv. The next feature of the evening was a duet by SuptLanders and Rev. D. V. Poling.

The piece was heartily encored butthe gentlemen would not be broughtforward again.

The chief feature of the evening session was a lecture by Pres. P. L,Campbell, of the State Normal Schoolon "Are we Being Over-Educated- ,

Pres. Campbell gave a strong talkupon the subject.

He unquestionably proved by hisargument that if it is a crime to carryeducation to the extreme the Americanpeople are, then it is a crime for thestate to furnish any assistance whatever to its young citizens. He goes onto prove that the education required tomake a good business man, does notcover the ground of that required forgood citizenship, but that required forgood citizenship does cover theground for a good business man. Heproves further that the establishmentof high schools is realty cheaper in thelong run, as well as the fact that thechildren are then generally underhome influence.

LAST DAY OP THE INSTITUTE.

The la3t day's session was openedby a song. Many of the teachers hadleft for their respective fields of work.State Superintendent Ackerman wasgreeted with applause upon his appearance, rres. uampoen toon uphistory.

A Midnight Blare.At 1:30 Saturday morning the in

habitants of our city were awakenedby the blowing of whistles and ring'ing of the fire bell which told, themin an insiant that our city was visitedby the fire fiend. In spite of the in-

convenience of the hoar the sidewalkswere soon Hoed with people rushirg tothe engine house to lend a hand.

It was found upon arriving therethat the fire was in a small house own-

ed by Mr. N. Harris near bis residenceon the hill in the east end, and asthere was no plug in tbas part of townthe department was called in. TheSouth side company was the only oneto reach the scene of the blaze. Al-

though it was impossible to geta stream on the blaze they did splen-

did work in preventing the spread offlames to the surrounding buildings.

When the fire was discovered it wastoo far advanced to be gotten undercontrol with the' limited means athand for fighting fire, and all thatcould be done was to save what couldbe gotten out and preventing itfrom spreaping.

The building was occupied by thefamily of Mr. Cohn and was insured atabout $750.00 and being almost fullyinsured the loss is light. We have notheard what Mr. Cohn's loss is but un-

derstand that he carried some insur'ance.
