    3. The Dalles Daily Chronicle, Tuesday, July 16, 1895 BRIEF MENTION page three B.A. Hunsaker of Heppner (Oregon) has bought out the grocery store of H. Moses and will take charge tomorrow morning. This week there has been added to the musical force the rich and very true soprano voice of Mrs. Hinsdale. Mrs. Hinsdale sang two numbers last night or rather four, for she was so vociferously encored that she kindly gave two very pretty ballads in response. - EXCHANGE. Word has been received from Mt. Adams (Washington) that a man named Ira Garner, was drowned while bathing in a pool about 50 feet wide and 100 feet long. The body has not been recovered up to the time of the last information although diligent efforts have been made to recover it. Frank Heater and Clarence Murray were arrested this morning on a complaint sworn by W. Hunter charging them with assault and battery. This is a relic of the memorable Saturday night and is one of the occurrences not before enumerated. The boys will appear befor (sic) Justice Davis this evening for examination. Andy Allen and Bill Gilmore came up on the Regulator, bringing the race horses that The Dalles sent to the meeting in Irvington. Jim Crow has been taken to Montana. Bill Rice, belonging to C.W. Rice, Miss Hastings to Fred Fisher, Good Friday, to A.M. Allen, Bolta to J.P. McInerny and D. Schutz, to Phil Brogan, were brought on the boat. The Dalles horses wherever they go always make good records for themselves. Griff Williams and Charley Michelbach returned last night from a camping trip to Trout Lake (Washington). They have been gone over a month and have fished and hunted to their heartsÂ’ content. The number of campers this year at Trout Lake is unusually large and the popularity of the place has greatly increased. The continued fishing in the lake has its result in a lessened number of fish, but there were still plenty to go around. There is now quite a contingency of Dalles people at Trout Lake. R.A. McDonald, who did the shooting Saturday night, was arraigned before Justice Davis, on the charge of shooting with intent to kill. The prisoner waived examination and was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of $1000. In case the injuries of the wounded prove fatal the bonds will be increased. McDonald made a sort of statement before the justice, but was not represented by an attorney. Without wishing to judge outside of any sworn testimony yet the case against the defendant looks bad. In default of the required amount for bonds McDonald is still confined in the county jail. PERSONAL MENTION Mr. Aleck Cockerline of Eugene (Oregon) is visiting friends in The Dalles. Mrs. W.A. Johnston and child left on the afternoon train for the seashore. Mrs. C.W. Phelps was a passenger down the river by boat this morning. Mr. Ed. M. Williams returned last night from a hurried trip to Portland. Mr. A.D. McDonald, a prominent farmer of Sherman county, is in the city. Messrs. Polk Butler and J.W. Moore of Nansene (Oregon) are in the city on business today. Mrs. Varney and family have gone to Arlington (Oregon) to visit friends in Gilliam county. Elder Starbuck, of the Adventist tent, has gone for a short camping trip to Mosier (Oregon). Mr. W.E. Campbell and little son, Ray, were passengers on the Regulator for Portland. Mr. Dennis Bunnell and family have gone down the river on a fishing and berrying expedition. Miss Pearl Williams came up from Portland last night, and is visiting Miss Georgia Sampson. She will remain several days. Mrs. George J. Brown has gone to Portland for a few days visit, and will then go to Newport (Oregon) for a summer vacation by the sea shore. Reverend J.W. Jenkins and wife went to Hood River this morning on the Regulator. They will attend the campmeeting at that place. Mr. George Carpenter and wife of Fossil (Oregon) passed through The Dalles on their way to the seashore, where they will visit at the cottage of Mr. D.M. French.

Frank Connelly, our night watchman, who has been camping several days on Wind river (Washington), came home last night. The other members of the party will not return for several days. Miss Anna Roberts returned by the Regulator last night from attending the state university at Eugene (Oregon). Miss Roberts is a member of the senior class, and will graduate next year.
