MR. HOOD RESIGNS.
The Councilman From the First Ward
Send la Ills Resignation--It Is Laid
on the Table A Report of the
Cooncil Meeting; Last Night. '
The city council met in adjourned ees
elon last evening and if the amount of
time consumed were the sole judge of its
importance, few sessions have been 89
weighty as this one. It was nearly 11
o'clock when a motion to adjourn was
carried. When the- roll was called the
following were present, besides Mayor
Menefee, Councilman A. R. Thompson,
SI. T. Nolan, G. C. Eshelman, K. E.
Saltmarshe, T. F. Wood and S. S. Johns.
The meeting opened with a genuine sur
prise in the shape ot the resign at ion of
Councilman K. B. Hood. The letter of
resignation bad been handed to the re
corder in the afternoon and when read
before the counciluaen ran as follows:
The Dalles, Or.. Nov. 7, 1895.
To the Honorable Mavor and City Council of
The Dalles, Or.
Gentlemen : I hereby tender you my
resignation as councilman for the first
ward of this city. Thanking you for
your kindness and courtesy to me while
I was a member of your honorable body,
I remain, ' Yours Respectfully,
R. B.Hood.
After the surprise occasioned by the
resignation bad subsided a motion was
made and eeconded that the resignation
be accepted, Later this motion was
withdrawn and another one carried to
the effect that the resignation be laid on
the table until the next meeting. As
can be seen by the letter no reasons are
atftiirned bv Mr. Hood for bis resignation I drawn swords

of explanation. The resignation was en
tirely unexpected by the other members
of the council. The select committcs
appointed at the last meeting to look
after the sewer question reported
through Dr. Eshelman that Mr. Cran
dall had been appointed to furnish speci
fications. That gentleman, beiqg, in at
tendance stated the specifications
for the building ot the sewer, which
were discussed at great length by the
members of the council. Finally no
action was taken and the matter of the
sewer was .left in about the same con
dition as it was before the agitation be
gan. At this point in the proceedings Mar
shall Blakeney fell asleep and after
being awakened a motion to adjourn was
made but received no second. A motion
was then made by Mr. Thompson that
the present committee act in connection
with Mr. Rosa and Mr. Wood to lay
plans for the sewer system, but as the
motion received no second it was not
brought before the house. As the hour
was growing late and there seemed little
ehance of accomplishing anything dur
ing the remainder of the session the
councilmen wound their watches, passed
a motion to adjourn and went home.

Tne following from the La Grande
Chronicle, which tells how they do
things in the city beyond the Blue moun
tains, may help to stimulate the cour
age of some of our citizens who intend
penetrating the mysteries of fraternal
orders:
Shrieks and groans coming from the
direction of K. of P. hall Friday evening,
caused a number of persons to stop sud
denly and then look for the marshal.

been known if a New Woman (whose
name is withheld) had not climbed op
in the hay loft over the goat's stall and
witnessed the awful Bight.
A candidate was brought in, woo was
wearing a scarea loogeu. lue cniet
steDDed down off the platform and pro

the Sworn Twelve surrounded mm with
He was then driyen
by 8 words' -points on
three sides, while on the floor on the
fourth side was a rug of spikes. As' the
swords closed in on him, the poor fellow
gave an awful shriek and jumped well
out on the spikes. . lne groan that es
caped hie lips as he came down would
have melted the heart of a cabbage, but
it had no effect on the Sworn Twelve.
The spikes proved to be of rubber and
bent down nnder the candidate's weight.

Supreme Juggler proceeded to impale
him with gleaming knives. He remained
in this position nntil the next candidate
bad gone through the ceremony this far,

Juggler pulled out his fore-finger nail,
quickly split it half way and sharpened
it. It was then replaced by some
method known only to Maccabees, and
he signed his name in blood to the obli

Woman and she tainted. When con

L. A. Clarke, who livea at Sprague, a
short distance above Cascades and is in
terested in several scows upon tbe Col
umbia 19 having trouble with the Messrs.
Day, at Cascade Locks, over a contract
unfilled by Clarke, for which failure the
Days are suing for damages. Saturday
the answer of Clarke was filed in the
United Ssatee. A.. S. Bennett, Esq., of
this city appears for Clarke. An affi
davit was also filed which shows the
facts as Clarke claims them to be.
The barge City of Spragne, which be
longed to Clarke and Inman, was leased
by J. G. & I. N. Day, contractors, for
building to completion the locks at the
Cascades, for the period of ten months.
Day Bros, entered into an agreement
with Clarke & Inman to pay them the
enm of $175 for the use of the barge for
that time. It was agreed that Clarke
should furnish a captain to navigate the
barge, or was to act himself in that capa
city. He as8nmed the management of
tne craft himselt. The men who worked
on the barge were employed by Day
un tne I7tn of last October, dur
Mrs. Poorman has brought tbe follow
ing article to The Chronicle, with a re
quest that it be published :
Who is most to blame, the ones who
can drink moderately all their life, caus
ing most all who try to follow them
to fill drunkards' graves or the saloon
keeper who is dealing out that which
Lcauses sorrow, sunenng, poverty, every
evil and death, besides destroying the
immortal soul? It must be those who
vote to give license to do so, who are
most responsible for all. Is it not time
for all who are soldiers of the cross to-j
serve the Lord instead of Satan and vote
to stop the manufacture aud sale of all
that intoxicates before it is everlastingly
too late to save their own soul.
Bros.
ing the absence of Clarke from the barge,
and without his consent, the men at
tempted to move the craft, and in doing
o ran her against a rock, which stove a
hole in the side and bottom, causing the
barge to partly sink. At the time tbe
barge was lying near the shore loading
with rock. By the terms of the agree
ment between Clarke and Day Bros., the
latter were to stand any loss or damage
which might result to the barge during
the ten months' time. After the barge
sunk, it is alleged that Day Bros, and
Clarke worked for about two weeks en
deavoring to rai.se the craft, but that
Day Bros, had abandoned further efforts
to get the submerged barce afloat. Soon
after, suit was commenced by Day Bros,
against Clarke, alleging a breach of con
tract, and asking for $5,000 damage?.
This case is now pending in the United
States court. Clarke claims in his affi
davit that, by reason of the sinking of
the barge and the failure of Day Bros,
to keep their agreement and raise, the
craft, he wat unable to comply with his
part of the contract; that the alleged
breach was through no fault of his.
The case was set for trial on November

with Clarke, was equally sued bv J. G.
and I. N. Day.

South Waucoma Addition
to Hood River.
The owner of this, the most beautiful residence portion
of this beautiful village, has notified us thatnohev must be'
had and to cut the prices until they will sell, and so we have
made a slash of from 25 to 40 per cent, on everything placed
in our hands. When you realize the fact that the beautiful
new $9,000 schoolhouse is built in this addition and that
this property surrounds it, you will know that it is offered
at prices below anything ever known. We have three 5-acre
tracts, two blocks from new schoolhouse, for $750 each, or a
rate of 150 per acre. No land in this addition has ever sold
for less than $G00 per acre and never will be again. Wee
have also lots in adjoining block to the schoolhouse ranging
from $75 to $250, according to location and .size, no lot less
than 50x100 feet.- Now see what you think of-this: We
have an 8-room hard finished house with six lots, the house
cost $1,200, ordinary price of lots in same locality $200; the
former price at which this has been' held was $2,500. We
now offer this beautiful property at the ridiculous figure of
$1,200. We have an adjoining house of six rooms, hard
finished, with three lots, the very finest residence location in
the city, only $800. It is a crying shame to offer this
property at these prices: but we are helpless and must obey
orders, We have also some choice strawberry and fruit lands
at very low prices. Now this is an advertisement and gotten
up to sell the land, and is eyery word true. If you don't
believe it come and see it; we will be glad to show it.
