Mr, Henry W aner ..arrived bore last

ing his mother, Mrs. J..N. Reynolds.
' Mrs. J . F. Watt, of Pullman, W.r T.,

, L. Smith,arriviiTg here last Saturday,
Business has been quite dull for ' the
past week; owintr to the farmers' being
engaged in threshing ana fruit drying:
Hood River .was without mail from
Portland, . from Saturday night until
Tuesday owing to the burning of bridges
west of here.- t y
We understand the ladies are contem
plating giving a series of entertainments
soon, the proceeds to be used in bull 1
ing a public hall.
We have failed to receive any Items
from the Cascade locks this week; ow
ing probably to the burned bridges and
interrupted mail facilities. .
A fire broke out in the business por
tion of Tacoma, Thursday, and des
troyed three blocks and a half before it
, was controlled. The lire originated in a
. lodging house. '
The Indians are catching the big.
trout now in a manner to surprise even
the natives. We saw, Wednesday, as
fine strings of them as were ever caught
in Hood river.' .
The Harbison Bros., have bought' the
. flouring mill of D. D. Rogers and will
move it to their place on Neal creek. It
will be put in good order at once for
grinding both wheat and corn. '
- fruit dried in this section this season,
and in a year or two, when the young
orchards begin to bar, the shipments
' of both green and dried fruits will in
crease until it becomes our leading
industry. ,
Messrs. Crandall & Burget, the lead
ing undertakers, of The , Dalles, have
just moved into their new rooms at 1GG
Second street. They have a full line of
caskets and coffins, and are prepared to
do any work in their Hue. Orders by
mail will receive prompt attention.
Owing to the bridges being burned be
tween here and Portland the side tracks
at The Dalles became ever crowded with
freight cars rid the. pressure was
removed by bringing some of them to
Mosier and thi point where they are
side tracked to await the opening of the
road. ;
v Mr. John Stoddard is willing to build
his flume to this place and move his
planing mill here provided the citizens
, will, secure for him the right of way.
This is ah opportunity that should not
be neglected, and. our business men
; should unite in securing the desired
right of way at once. "
The Winans hotel is about completed
and will" prove a 'reat convenience to
'the traveling pubt);. It is conveniently
located near the forks of the river, is the
headquarters for '','fishing and hunting
parties, being situated most favorably
for both, and coumands a fine view of
Hood and the surrounding mountains.
The offices and public rooms of the hotel
are finished up with native cedar and
are verv handsome, the guests rooms
are some thirty-five in number and are
as yet unfinished. Next year this will
be a popular resort for sportsmen. . -,
Goldendale, W. T., is again afflicted
with diphtheria, four children having
died from that dread disease within the
past ten days. The Sentinel, this week,'ij
records the death ot Onzzell and aula,
daughters of .Waldo and Mary Glover,
from this cause, the former on Satur
day and Ella on Monday. ,
All the communication with the out
side world being now bv boat, it makes
one think of old times to go down to the
landing and wait one to five hours for
the boat, and shows forcibly the improve
ment over the old order of things. The
boat is a great convenience, but the rail
road knocks it out in fine shape when it
js passable at all.;, ... . 7 '.'
; ' We are in receipt of a complimentary
ticket to the fair at The .Dalles.. The
premium list this year is an excellent
one, and our farmers should make an
energetic effort to make a creditable dis
play of our products. The fair com
mences September 23d and holds for six
days. For premium list apply to J. O.
Mack, secretary of the association, or
drop into this office and we will supply
you. ' .
While A. J. Rand was roaming
through the woods near Lost lake last
week, he came across a very large cinna
mon hear. The bear was taking a big
breakfast of whortle berries and Rand
took a shot at him, but missed, the bul
let striking a tree. The bear finished
his breakfast suddenly and lit out for
the hills, while Mr. Rand started for his
"Home in the Clouds," not exactly on
a run, but a regular six days go-as-you-please
walk.
Mr. John Monroe is circulating a pe
tition to the county court asking for
$150, to be expended in widening the
grade on the east side of Hood river,
from thu bridge to Reynolds house.
This is a matter our county court should
attend to at once as tne place is very
dangerous, and the improvement will
most likely save the county a bill of
damages at the end of a law suit. . There
is a great deal of travel over this road
and it is a matter of wonder that a bad
accident has not occurred at this point.

Editor Hood River .Glacier : - - :
I saw in your issue of the 17th an arti
cle on "anti-irrigation," by Sojournei,
and one on the 24t.h inHtftnt on "nro-ir-
rigation," by Bona Fide,. Now, then 1. 1 flcfw-For terms 1 ipuire at PMtofflce
tdiouhf like to'shbw both "Sojourner 'ano - ",
Bona Fide where they are wrong. The
former is wrong when he says that farm
products, outside of small fruits, do not
need irrigation, for everyone kr-ows that
vegetation does better when irrigated.
Bona Fide is wrong when he says that
large trees need irrigation. I can show
him large fruit trees, full of .fine fruit,
that never had a drop of water by irri
gation, but tr.ev had cultivation. .He
tells us that, irrigation has the same
effect as rain. Iam of the opinion he
does not know what he is talking about.
Water is put on trees by irrigation dur
ing hot, dry weather and stimulates an
unnatural growth while rain comes
through a course of nature that changes

rigation is good for ah small fruits and
vegetables, but when it comes to large
fruits on good ground it is unnecessary.

An Ingenious Scheme.
An East Portland girl who was perse
cuted by a beau who persisted in com
ing often and staying late and was com
pletely impervious to hints, recently hit
upon the following ingenious plan to rid
herself; of an obnoxious swain. She
gave him pencjj and paper and said :
"Now make a row of eleven cyphers;
now make a perpendicular mark down
ward on th riirht side of the first cv-
There will be quite a large amount of ipher; upward on the right side of the
fourth; downward on the right of the
fifth ; upward on the right of the seventh
and eigbtli.; downward on the right of
the tenth." v She then asked him to read
what he had written. The effect was
electrical. Vindicator.'
