THAT llOCK CHEEK BCHOOL. Kiasiy, Oregon, Oct. 29, 1804. Editors Mist: Thst attack upon this choi! district and board of directors that appeared two weeks since In your paper is known lieie to be the work of au irrespon sible person wbo would not be worth re plying to but for the fact that your paper having a large circulation over the entire county, many outsiders may De led to oe Ueve that our district Is a disgrace to Ore gon, if they elect such men as we were re ported to be. 8o in defense of our district I am reluctantly compelled to take notice of it. . Aa to the first charge "that school boards are apt to do dishonorable things in order to a-nln notoriety ."which "Citizen" makes I will bv that I don't know whether school directors will do more dishonorable things ti .Timet nntnrietv than folks ronnectea with the United States mail or other public office; neither do I caie. But I do know that we hired Miss build to tench our ehnnl and ahe save as aood saUfnction aa the average young teacher. When her time was up w found we could get an older and better teacher, ana as we nau prouimeu Mias Oulld nothing further than for what she was hired, we surely had a right to do. Aa for her renuiauon.wenave never srrearn onlv well of her. But if ber indiscreet frixnd .Citizen." makes any more such charges as the one about her failing to keep ber contract with the iiilamooK scnooi.ii will not do either ot them any pood; ana l fail tn what that has to do with us di- r,.M,ir. in Ih. llnrlc Creek district. I will ay, however, that I don't believe Miss Guild ever broke any contract, for in her letter accepting tbe actiool uere sne mane no mention of it, but simply says she answers our letter ana accepts our scnooi immediately upon receipt ol our letter iena ering her the same. As to her being an TxninlarT christian." we have no doubt; but either Citizen" has been vacoinated or else it ain't catehin'. An in makinur a change in oruer to acorn modal a distant relative and settler here of that aa one of the inci dental advantages to be gained, believing in protection to workingmen, and that the money spent In Improving the valley and helping settlers here is bettor than If sent outside to another county. I am ever ready to practice what I preach, and that la one of the principal reasons f consented to give the scnooi ot tbe start to this same correspondent, who now apreads scandal about us, who art ber mends ana neignoora. But she failed to aian a contract and teach nr Milinnl for reasons wa know, and ah fails to give. And I still fail to see the crime in following out this idea because in rilrM.ltf tJm hAtilTtn heln a relative. Now as to the main point. Our laat teachor ia the beat we have ever had in the district. Every parent who had children attending are well sntlHfled. Not one word of complaint has been made by anyone whn haa Tinited the school. There is not district In the state where all are better suiten in every way with regard to school methods than are the people of the Hock Creek school. But we are not perfect- there is one "orazfir that prevents it. Nnw. in conclusion, let me sav that I al ways get along well with my neighbors by frnntlm. Indies will) the resnect due them. When dealing with gentlemen I treat them as such, but a "citizen,"' abl the citieen is something new, and ierhaps one too many for mo. Inspecting to end matters so fur as 1 am concerned, I am respectfully, ono of the directors of school district No. 27, A Deer In thn Breakers. A novel deer hunt was Indulged in by the steamer Koberts laat Sunduy, while waiting at the mouth of the Siualaw for the schooner Mayflower to come, says the' Yakima news. A doer was observed running down to the water. It plunged in and started to swim across the stream. The tug gave chase and soon caught up with the animal, but all attempts to lasso it were prevented by the high wind and heavy awell. After many fruitless at tempts at capture the deer got into shoal water and escaped, much to the chagrin of it pursuers, Sixteen Burned to Death. BaATTtz, Oet. 27.

Johnson, hands burned. " The identification of some of the bodies will not be complete for several days, and ia some cases probably never. How the fire started is best told by Hpen- cer Butler, son of the proprietor, who Is night clerk; "About 1 o'clock this morn ing," said he, "I went to the kitchen, which is at tbe head of the stairs, to get my luncn- . I lighted a coaloil lamp, and then I beard a noise downstairs, and went to see what wa the matter. Then I heard on ex plosion upstairs, and when I ran up the steps the kitchen was all ablaze. The lamp had exploded, and the table. Hour and wans were on fire. I tried to put out the fire, but could not do so." A New Steamboat. Portland, Oct. 29. The Oregon Railway Navigation Company has ordered the material and will at once have work com menceil on the construction of a steamer to take the place of the Willamette Chief, which was burned un the ways where she wa being repaired, at the time the elevator waa destroyed. Hhe will be 164 feet between periiendiculars, 81 feet beam and 5 feet depth of hold. Bhe will carry 275 tons. with a draught of VA feet, and when light will draw IS inches. It sounded like old times to hear an Oregon Railway & Navi gation Company official say yesterday, She will be built at our yard by P. Cars- tens, oar boat-builder." It has been so long since the company was in the business of building boat that some have forgotten where their boatyard is, but tbe boneyard ia In evidence ratber permanently. How ever, all that will soon be changed and new boats will take the place of old ones. Out and Mashed to Pieces. Pzkdlitow, Oct. 30. Napoleon B. Stover, an engine-wiper, fell before an engine thi evening which waa detached from the Ore gon Railway & Navigation freight train The body was carried 1. feet, where it was left by the freight engine. The Portland- bound passenger tram pulled in and. tbe engine ran over the body twice, going to and coming up from the yard. Conductor Miller, of the passenger train, was told by yard employe that a hat and broken lantern bad been found. He searched and discovered the body, literally crushed to a pulp. The trunk of the body was nearly cut in two at tbe hips. Fragments were picked up along the track for the whole distance it was dragged. No less than 100 pieces were found. Stover had been em Dtoved here six years. He left a widow and seven children. Coroner Klniery itn mediately empaneled a Jury, which ren dered a verdict in accordance with these facts. Floating Dangers. Coasting captains and seagoing men gen erally are much worried on account of tbe vast number of piles afloat along the coast from the big raft and in the old Lucas abandoned a few days ago. They say the piles are more dangerous than rocks, pecially to steamers, and characterize tbe scheme for towiog a raft of pilea to San Francisco at this season as idiotic If the raft had been made np in the winter and started out in the spring, it might bave been towed to Ban Francisco, successfully It is probable that the next congress will be asked to make a law preventing attempts of thia kind in the future, and forbidding any one from going to sea with rafts or anything else over which they cannot maintain some control. The piles are not likely to remain long a menace to naviga tion as they will soon be added to tbe vast pile of drift which lines the coast of Oregon. Many Times Told. An exchange says the following hap pened In a little town in Southern Illinois In a section where the farmers alliance is strong, and a lodge of that organization exists in tbe town and meets on Monday nights : There is only one lodge room in the town and on Tuesday nights it is occupied by the Knights of Pythias lodge. The president of one of the oonnty sub- alliances came to town one day. He bad visited the town alliance, and when be saw lights in the lodge rpoiu concluded he would go over and condole with the brethren. He gave the proper knock at th outer door The wicket was raised, and an ear was placed at it to hear the password "I Dlow. I hoe. I spade," whispered the Alliance man. The ear waa replaced by an eve. and it In turn gave place to a mouth which yelled in reply : "The hell you do!" and the wicket dropped with a bang. The indignant farm' er shortly afterward met a brother, to whom be told his tale of woe. "Why, dad blame It!" wa th sharp comment of th brother, "them's Knighta of Pythias, and you've given em our pass word." "Dogged it I ainH," was the response "but (brighteuing up), durn 'em, i've got theirs I" Awarded Highest Honors World' Fair. CREAM MOST PERFECT MADE. a nura Gran Cream of Tartar Powder.
