A. ) oung, of the upper Cluts kuiiio woro in town Haturuay. As tho wot weather approaches tho insulliuieuey of our school accomoda tions aro iiiuilu more manifest. Jt IB promised to build a now school-house and the expenditure bus been author ised liv a vote of the citixeus, but tho ground lo put tho building on cannot be secured. Tho earth in town is to precious for anything so common as a common school building and the boys and girls can take their chances of life and health in the old dilapidated build ings now being uod. Clntskanio bus boon disponed to smile at the metropolitan aspiratii ns of Vernonla, but the latter named town show evidence of progress that bids fair to bring it out of tho woods. A Into copy of the Nohulem Journal in form us that tho lumber is nearly nil on tho ground for a new church thoro, and in another place that bid were opened for a new school house. A new school house and a church aro tho things that Clatakanie want aTid it seem a little strange that their neighboring town in the woods is going to get ahead with both buildings. We congratulate Vornonia while wo sigh tor Clatskanio that call itself tho banner town of tho county. Two plucky little follow, Arthur nnd Goorgo Bancroft aged 11 and 13 woro tho guests of Maater Georgo Conyer last woek. Tlio boys aro Bona of Mr. and Mrs. Bancroft of Portland and rode from homo on their ponies spend ing a night on the wuy at Deer Island. Their father is connected with the freight department of the H. P. K. Jt. but tho boys prefer to see tho world on horseback, and made ono trip to The Dnlle and another to Forest Grove beftre coming hero. They started Friday morning on their return trip homo. Considerable work 'had boon done on tlio hill last week preparatory to a Sabbath school picnic on Saturday, but when tho day rnmo the rain came also and tho picnio was postponed. We am glud to note a disposition to use paint lately. The Laws house is being overhauled by Blackford and Dan Gorman ha boon trying his skill on the Gates house. We do not know whether Dan pretends to be an artist or not but his work look welt on that building. Nehnlcm Avenue ha been laid out straight but travelled very crooked and will lie literally beside itself when Milton Bryant gets hi fence finished. He is taking in quite a portion of the planked road which he ia no doubt en titled to inasmuch at hi dpod call for ft. Hi summer work on the big (tump in front of hi house will not be ! .

Tho so'ile that you hear most about in town, are not those that weigh suit and sugar but those that tho boy try toglidoupnnd down on with their new horn. Home of them aro Retting thoro fairly woll but others seem to blow out vory peculiar and unmusical sound up to this date. Mr. Mary Lock wood spent a portion of lust wook in town visiting hor brother and istor in thi place, nho left on the steamer Saturday morning lor hor home in La Centre, Wash. Will Fouls tin had hi residence retnodled anl painted until it present quite an attractive appearance, and as VVIIlluin believe that anything must be seen to be appreciated, he ha hud some brush cut down tbut hid his view from tlio lower portion of tho town and how the house stand out in all it glory. Uriah Kelly and family are now citizens of the town occupying tho house formerly known a tho Gate house. Mr. Hhoudy of Rock ford Ills., nnd Miss Emma Tiwerof Moudota 111m., cmiiio in on Friday to visit Mrs. W, II. (Jonycrs a aistor of the first men tioned ludy. They have been spending soma timo in the Kast and will remain hero long enough to see and appreciate tho natural beauties of this region. Watson Elliott ond family woro I'P from Mursbliiud on Monduy. .loh n W. Htratton and family arc back from the Nehulem Valley occupy ing their residence in town after their summer absence, Mr. Dale, ex-ennnty clerk of thi county was in town Tuesday. Wo did not learn how he arranged to have his chicken cared for during hi absence from Ins bachelor quarter in the .Vohiilem Valley but Use it for granted they were to be looked after by anmo one. How much more convenient it would be for a mun under tucb cir cumstance a lie leave home to suv; Now Kuean, dear, don't forget the chickens. Andrew McDougnl left on Monday nigut tor near Napa down the Coin in hia where he expects to log with Geo. Itowitaon from a tract recently pur chased by C. A. llimpol. ItAI.MKIl IIKKK.KH. Every thing looks lively since the rains. Of the throe mills and factory in this place only I). Ulanchard's saw mill has been animated in the pust mouth, il bus run several days. D. Ulancbard has been driving piles buck of his wood dock on which ho is erecting a now fish house, to be occupied by Martin Bcoth. The new Henderson cottage which is nearly completed, rumor says, is to bo occupied by the same parly. Rainier is to have a now $2,XK) school 1 house. I). niorco with a forcoof work men is working on lhu Masonic hall which has boon at a stand still for the pust year. Wilt Pomeroy and Rupert Dibblee leave soon for school the former goes lo Corvalhs and the latter to Portland. We wish the boys every success, and many friends will misslheni. On the 15th a sad accident occured at 11. Ulanchard's wood mill. Mr. Brou, a well known and esteemed resilient of this place, while running the engine hauling the logs, got caught in tho rope and wound up on tho drum, crushing his right leg badly, breaking it in three places ami malt probability would have been killod, but for the presence of mind and heroism of his liwiloson aged 12 who shut ofViliOBtoam and exliicaled his father before the men working near could come toils assistance. This occured about noon and tho steamer H. R. Thompson walled half an hour and took the in jured niau to Portland. The lumber is being hauled for the new cottage under contemplation on the lull hack of Dibblee s. The dime festival at the residence of Mr. Mock' on Monday ove proved an enjoyable lime. Pofcssor Morris and wife, who have boon spending the summer months with rotative in Beaver Valley, loft this place Tuesday for their now home on Portland heights. Their friends wish them all happiness after their years of travel and work for tho better ment of mankind. A Lookkk On. Ellzn.wiieof C 8. Foster, of Oobto. Or., detained tltia life t 4 p. iu. on Friday, September 4, Mil. The above was born on tho prairies of Illinois, A u mint 25, 1S5G, and was united iu marriage to her surviving husband in September, 1S72. Tho fruits of their union is five children, two boys and throe girls, one of the latter" having by providence been called away some four month ago, the loss of which was a sad bereavement to both father and mother; but with Christian fortitude all submitted to the will of the Divine Master. Willi sadness, all on the Lord's day, met at the humble home of the deceased. Friond from St. Helens, Rainier ami tho immediate vicinity with tokens of friendship and words of comfort paid their respects lo the dead and dis tressed, and after the mound was raised to mark tho last 'resting place of one so doar it was covered with na ture's sh-oud of beautiful flowers, all within sight of her late abiding place. As it i but a fow short year since I became acquainted memory brings to rocolleotion noble deeda of honest hearts, among them such was she ; but her toils on earth are over, and truly can it be said the community have lost a noblo lady and tho husband a noble and loving companion, one who always could nnd did meet you with a pleasant smile of recognition and a good word of cheer. Rest in peace, kind sister, ia the prayer of tho writer. m. w. SUB-T11KABUUY AGAIN. Editor Mist: Lest another may not, I tako the liberty, with your per mission, to reply to "Query," who pro fesses to be seeking ligtit on the "Sub- Troasurv Scheme," but seem to a- auine that it would be fraudulent for tho government to isauo such suo- troasury paper miles It hud in it treasury at the time, an equal value of gold nnd silver with which to -make such issue good. , I judgo that 'Ciucry" is a youngster, for hud lie been on the stage of busi ness action from 18(JU until some timo after tho close of the war, I think he would not be troubled about tho ability or the right of the government to bundle itself, oven though the other fellow had cornered and possessed all of those two high priced products of tlu land, gold and silver. Besides, if it would be frauduluut to issuo paper money now when there are hundred of million of gold and silver in the trrasury and in circulation, what wus it then when, practically, there was not a dollar of cither gold or silver lo even base the paper issue on; and tho future existence of the government itself was by many, thought j-roblern-ulicul. For ns complete an answer as to what advocates of the sub treasury plan propose. I should refer hiin to the secretary of the neurest farmers' ul liance for a tract on that subject. L C. Q. A- I IGJIT FOll LIFE. BII.W.L WR DItlVB 8I.0W TOIHOM FKOM OUtt liUKAKKAHT TADI.K? Alum and Ammonia In Oor Broad. A nuisance that troubled England fifty years ago is now rapidly spread ing iu this country, that ia pulti'ig alum in tho breud we eut. This ques tion is causing a great deal of UIKOUS- siou at the present moment, as it is revealed that alum is being used as a substitute for cream of tartur in bak ing powders. A story is told that a very largo percentage of tho baking puwuors sold on the market contain either alum or ammonia, and many of them contain both these pernicious drill's. Much timely alarm is felt nt tho wholesale use of alum in broad, biscuit and pastry. To young chil dren, growing girls, persons nf weakly frame, alum broad eaten morning noon and evening is the most harm ful. It is tho small quaatitics taken at every meal that do the mischief. Alum is cheap, costing but two or three cents a pound while cream of tartar costs 30c, and the high price of cream of tartar has led cheap linking powder to be made of alum. If the reader wants to know something of the corrosive qualities of alum let hi in touch a pit'co to his tongue then re flect bow il acts on the tender delicate couta of tho stomach. Following is a list compiled by the Scientific American, of the alum and ammonia baking powders that have already been tested. ATLANTIC TACIFIC. ROYAL. COOK'S FAVOIIITK. SCIoTO. CKOWN. CRYSTAL.
