There were too many coenter attraotiona, a dance at Houlton having previously been Announced for that date, where all the dancer aeemed to want to go. The Houlton dance waa brilliant aucceia, socially and financially. Ida Morgan, of Delena, who recently .clotted her second aticeessful term in the Hudaon district, Calumbia county, ha jpme to Moinmoutb, where ahe will take brief course at the normal achool te gain the lateit idea in teaching, pre paratory to beginning her third term in the Hudaon ditUict-Teacher'a Mouthly.

Mr. Sherman, althoogb expecting to re main where he ii for aome time, expect to return to Oregon at aome future tiate, a be 1 not impreeiied with the cold -climate of bia native Kate. He inaUt that Oregon i good enough for blm. The rainfall thl aenten haa been very light all over the coaat compared with laat winter, which waa about the high eat for many year, if not the greatest maximum. Laat year the rainfall waa about 8 inchfi mora than thl year up to date, and the proportion ia fully eqaal to the moat favored, while aeveral local itiea have bad but little over half the record of laat year.

Teacher' Monthly. Lou Barger waa in from Yankton Wednesday in the Interest of the pro jected telephone line from that place to Ht. Helena. M r. Barger state that sum aksnt funds has been subscribed to pay for the materia), and there la little doubt now but that the line will be built. There will be three instruments, and the improvement will prove, a great con venience to the people, especially since there will but little if any expense at tached to ita use and maintenance. , Josenh Snook and family, of Newton. Iowa, arrived here last week on their way to JNehalem valley, to visit Mrs. Snook's sister, Mrs. Joseph Beed, whom ' aha had nnr. hah fnr HavanteAn vaara. The now arrivals came with a possibility of locating ana making Mint part ot me .country their home, but the condition of the roads disgusted theut, and after a brief visit they will seea a location else where. With the climate they were favorably impressed, as the mercury stood nt 22 lielow aero when they left Iowa. The road to the Nehalem Valley from Astoria is in an exceediuitly bad and lnngarotiH condition at the present, and only safe for travel when the greatest care Is exercised, says the Budget. Mrs. Tuylor, who carries the mail from out there, on horseback, had a very annleas ant experience a day or two ago. When near the seven-mile post her horse got mired, and with the assistance of sev eral men and horses it was found im possible to extricate it, and it was (onnd ; necessary to shoot it. There are some . bad, bad roads in Columbia county, but nothing like this, we hope. A few night ago th Astoria west bound night train had a narrow escape from collision with the .Northern FaulAo I'ort laud-bound express. The Astoria train have the right-of-way on the Northern' (track between Uoble and Portland. A few nlgkM ago the Northern was ate BHttinir into Uoble from the Sound, aim ireeelved order to wait at a nearby station until the Astoria train pnased. The engineer I reported to have Ignored the order, with the re sult tliaff the two train were on the aame track, running In opposite direc tions. The Astoria train's engineer nrst realised the predicament In which both train had -been placed and at once beiran runnlnir backward. The North ern train kept coming, however, bat the engineer Dually slowed down. When the Northern came to a iinnusuu tuere was not more than a yard between the two pilots. The close shave ha been kept quiet by the railroad companies. Hereafter, no doubt, the Northern train crews will be required ito observe more caution. The piano used last Saturday evening at the ball, on Hie occasion of the dra matic and operatic performances by the Bainlor people, was generoualy supplied by Messrs. Wallace & Mover, of this city, the only Instrument dealer on the Columbia rlvor, north of Portland. The instruments handled oy these gentlemen are the famous Clough & Warren make, and are considered to equal any instru ment on the market today, and certainly ttioae who heard the tone and saw the finish of the piano could not help being favorably , Impressed with it. These gentlmnen have, on numerous occasions, furnished limtrumeuta for aimilar occa sion, and osw people should encourage their presence by examinuag tneir goous and buying of tlieni when purchase in that line are made. "Where will the Northern Pacific cross to reach Astoria when ita Vancouver bridge is finished?" said Judge Bow Iby, of Astoria, a few day ago, while in a reflective jnood that waa neither opti mistic nor pessimistic "Will it aban don its Kalama ferry?" The propriety of crossing nt Oray's bay and using the Kalama ferrv boat waa uinreted. ''But Charley Stone aays they are repairing the road bed between Uoble and fort land in a most substantial manner," continued the reflective fhilosphur. "The idea of crossing at Oray's bay is an old one and it may be that will be its direct route to Astoria. But why are they making such a solid road bed on the Uoble route?" and the veteran Astoria railroad builder went away musing. Astoria News. Maurita Carr, proprietor of the Oregon Creamery Butter factory, of Fisbhawk, was in Astoria a few days ago, and to a newspaper reporter of that city haa this to say of hlmi "He rode seventeen miles over the mountains to Clatskanie, and there took the train for Aatoria, Mr. Carr has traded, via Mist, with Kverdinir A Farrell. of Portland, for a nn art Hr of a eenturv. sending the Drod uct of his creamery to that firm. He now ditals with Foard & Stokes Co.. in Astoria. Hi chanire to this place is due to having a son in the Astoria high school. Fishhnwk la forty miles from Astoria by the Nehalem road. It Is live miles Irom Mist. The first-class wagon road to Astoria will turn many traders to this point." Over In Cowlitz county, Wash., they are preparing lor politic, too, anu oi tho matter the Kalaiua Bulletin says; At the oresent outlook, this season s crop of political aspirant for office will be. as usual, sufficient to see that the county's business, as well as the affairs ot the state, win tie lonicea alter. i'i course there are not officers in the field yet, but there's a sufficient number of good, loyal cituena who are willing to sacrifice themselves, if necessary, i order to see that the affairs of the county are atteudeU to right."

The entertainment given In this city last Saturday evening by the Rainier local talent dramatic club was a com plete success (n every particular. We have on another occasion spoken sepa rately ol the personnel of the club, and will speak only of generalities at this time. Our honest conviction is that the several part were rendered better in our city than waa the case when the company appeared before its home aud ience. This is the case notwithstanding the fact that away from home there are always unlooked-for obstacles to over come. A large house greeted the play ers, the net proceeds being (31.60, which is to be donated to the Rainier Pythian Building Association. Shonld the Rain ier club decide to come to our city nt any future time we know they wilt be greeted by a large audience. Suicide Near Clatakanle. . Coroner Cliff received a telephone message about noon Thursday, from ClatBkanle, announcing the death of Miss Cora King, niece of W. H. King, the result of deliberately takina carbolic acid. She left a note explaining that her rash act was caused by the refusal of her parents to allow her to marry a - j ti 1 . lLl yuuiiz man in iernsKa, irom wniuu state the young lady had recently come, Justice Barnes, of Quincy, was author ited to take charge and conduct an ia quest, the coroner being unable to go owing to other professional duties, lhe body will be embalmed and sent to Ne- bi anka lor burial. VBUNOMf A PICK-UPS. Miss Alloa Soule. the Pebble reek school teacher, was home Saturday and eunaav. Commissioner W. D. Cass was baf fling in theae parts Monday. He make thing go when he get after them. Mr. Hatfield returned from teacher examination Tuesday of thl week. She ill begin the Hidgway school next Monday. Our socialistic club organized perma nently last Saturday by electing U. Bes- aeman president aud Albert Wood sec retary, lor inree months. Lester Mow. who ha been working over in Washington the past six months, came out into the valley Saturday last to visit Uie tionie folk lor awhile, Ueorue Zlllirltt. who ha been In Southern California for the past three or four months, came back to Veraonla lost week and wilt assist his latiior in the store, a before. Rev. T. L. Harder, owing to the sick ness of his sister, in Portland, did not come to hi appointment last Sunday. out will be here next Banuay ana win preach in the church here morning and evening and at Keasey in the afternoon. There will be a moeting of the Ver nonla Cemetery Association at the school-house at 2 p. m., March 1st, for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing year and for the transacting of such other business a may come before the meeting. Miss Hilda Peterson, eldest daughter of Mr. Gust Peterson, who lives below Pittsburg, 1 quite seriously ill. Mrs. Deeds, of the same neighborhood, who, about the first of tbe mouth was thought to be dangerously sick, is now very much improved, with good prospect of a final recovery. 8. F. Ballard was out to Clackamas county last week after dairy stock. He bought a bunch of hia brother-in-law, Mr. Ambrose Patch, which they brought in the Drat vf tills week. This makes Mr. Ballard a herd of about fifteen good milkers. It is his intention to go into the dairy bualness in good shape. He will put in a separator during the com ing summer or fall. Dairying In the Nehalem, if done right, will pay. and we trust more of our farmers will get into it. Even with only six to ten good cow and a separator a net income of from 76 cont to $1 a day can be realised from the butter alone, to aay nothing of by-products and increase in stock. John Baker, Tell Soule, Chaa. A. Malmsten and Emery Sheeley were viewing out a road last week, east from the Adams bridite to Scaopoose. They say they can locate a moat excellent roate, with only one or two bridgea to build and a grade at no place greater than 8 per cent. They came out into the South Scappoose creek road, the distance from Vernonla to Scappoose being only about sixteen miles. As quite a number of claims have been lo sated east of here within the past year, a county road along thia route ia not among the impossibilities within the next vear or so. and it ia the very best outlet for a railroad to the Nehalem. It would probably get rid of tunneling. Warrea Happenings. Mrs. C. W. Adams, daughter and son, Ross, are at Centralia, Wash., for a short visit. Marion Slavens left for Fort Columbia last Monday morning, to work on the new government buildings. N. F. Baker returned from Fort Co lumbia Wednesday of last week and is now at work on the M.

Quite a number of the young folks from this place attended the dance at Houlton last Friday evening, and report having had quite an enjoy a me time, A SDecial meeting of the Orange will be held this Saturday, February 22d, at 2 o'clock p. m., for the purpose of re ceiving and balloting lor candidates. All members are requested to be present. Services were held at the Grace church last Sunday morning and evening by Rev. Ballantyne. On account of the quarterly meeting to be held at St. Johns over the 3rst Sunday of next month, ho will not be able to fill hia appointment at this place on that Sunday.

The high water in Rock creek sadly In conveniences the people west of Keasey. Now that Columbia county boosts of her financial status, we wonder why some of the good people that have to clamber over drifts and go miles around, besides scaling canyons, do not speak up and sav, "give us a bridge." Relying on the liberality of the county commis sioners, and their kind-heartedness to ward the people in the extreme west of the county, we doubt not a bridge could be had for the asking. TPOK FRENCH LiEAVB. Cunning Prisoner Escape from Sheriff HaUan Laat Friday. Sheriff Hattan 110 lonner has half the faith In humanity that he possessed last Friday. The cause of this sudden change of heart was brought about try the action of a man who baa been a prisoner less than a quarter of an hour. Our readers will recall to mind an Item In our last Issue which referred to some of our rural neighbor conducting themselves in a very strange way in re gard to their keen interest in the cattle which were roaming the range. It seems that there has been a very gen eral observance of the law practiced in regard to taking up and taking care of stray animal by some of the denizens of the Bunker hill region, and people from other parts of the surrounding country did not wholly ' approve or heartily appreciate such kindnesses, and a successful effort was made last week, resulting in locating some of these stray antmals and restoring them to tbetr proper owners. mis tea to a damage suit, wmcn was promptly settled in the justice court, and later bv tbe issuance out of that court of a writ commanding the sheriff . . 1 . 1 . ht . 1 : w vnaw uuuer mv umciai wing vwv in landers, Uerhart Moreback and Antone Kenowski. These individuals came to town last Friday afternoon, leaving their horses at Houlton. At the supper table at tbe hotel, Sheriff Hattan quietly stepped in and read the contents of the official document and requested the men to consider themselves his prisoners. There waa no sign of wrath or appar ent discomfiture manifested, and the three settled down to a matter-of-fact businesslike conversation in regard to an attorney, mode of proceedings, etc. A lew moments later tne trio starteu for tbe sheriff's office, and when at the corner of the atreet, Kenowski excused himsell lor a moment to step to tne rear of a building, tbe sheriff and other prisoner steoDinir ud behind him, being all the time engaged In conversation, and after two or three momenta wait ing, the sheriff called to Kenowski, but there was no response. A hasty inspec tion revealed the fact that Kenowski had suddenly departed; and his where abouts yet remain an unsolved mystery, although a diligent search has been maintained ever since by the officer. Kenowski waa at Ellison's place, on X' . U tl 11 . . 1 .ftA-njuu. arriving there about 2 o'clock. Sheriff Hattan la more provoked to mow mat his kindness would be unappreciated and hia confidence betrayed than at any other circumstance about the whole af fair, and vows eternally that be will pursue Kenowski to Zululand if ha does not find him this side of there. MAN IN THE WRONG TOWN. Passenger Mistakes Honlton for Pert- land Delayed Several Hear. It ha been bnt a short time since a rather amnsinv as arell as nrovokintr in cident occured at Houlton, the result of lealousv and the circulation ot untrue re ports in regard to the metropolis 01 Ore gon. A Northern train, Douna lor rort land, whizzed into Houlton a few hours late. It bore a passenger lately irom the East, who bad spent a few days in Seattle, where the people endeavored to impress him that theirs was the only city on the Pacific coast. He waa told that Portland was a little hole in the woods, the one principal street being lighted by dingy, balf-cared-for coal oil lamps, and where everybody remained indoors of evenings for fear of being de voured by a wild beast. He had also received this impression in the East from reading Seattle papers, but he was determined to see Portland before he chose bis permanent place of residence on the coast. When the train was neanng Houlton the brakeman thrust his bead into the cab door and shunted in a half-audible way. "Houlton." The passenger under standing it to have been "Portland," grabbed his grip and alighted 'on the platform. Asking a byatanaer to ue directed to the best hotel in the city, he was taken to Landlord Mattbewa' hos telry, where arrangements were made for his care during the niirht. and next day his heart's desire to view the city of Portland was to be gratified. Not much time bad elapsed, however, until the mistake was discovered, when tbe situ ation became changed entirely. The next day the tourist proceeded to Port land, found large, beautiful city, be came impressed with the place, wrote to beattle lor hi trunks, ana is perma nently located in Portland, where he has engaged in business. His spare momenta he devotes to writing articles for Eastern newspapers, praising Port land and the rest of Oregon, and con demning Seattle for it licentious atti tude toward Portland. DEIjUNA SCHOOL. Beautiful Surroundings ef a Bearer Tailey School-hoase. Tha rnmnl nninher of tha Oreson Teacher's Monthly, published in Salem, contained the following complimentary notice of one of Columbia county's schools, which we deem worthy of re producing. "Tbe Delena. Columbia county, achool recently completed the clearing of a third of an acre of laud lying in front of the school grounds, and between the county road and Beaver creek, the land was given oy Mrs. mi ran rueaerve to the school for park, and upon it the pupils have planted every variety of deciduous and evergreen tree and shrubs indigenous to this section of Oregon, together with six varieties of Eastern deciduous trees. The park, which is a small botanical garden, now contains thirtv-ane varieties of tree and shrubs. and it is the intention of the school to further beautify it by planting roses and other flowerino shrubs. Dlants and vines. but before this planting can be done the Dark will have to be fenced, which the school expect to do next winter. In addition to clearing the park, which haa been done during the two last terms, the entire school yard has been cleared by the efforts of the pupils and the teachers who have taught in this achool, the work having been car ried on during the past six years. Only those familiar with Oregon timber land can realise the amount ot work that haa been accomplished by the Delena school In clearing their yard and park, for the land had been covered with heavy growth of four and five-foot fir and cedar trees, which had been logged off, Ipftvlnn the irronnd covered with stumps. refuse logs and tops. Some of tbe cedar stump were so large that it took more than a week to uurn mem um, ioi all the work was done at recess and noons, thouarh some was done before school time, by the early arriving pupils, while the firs, though large as the cedars, could be burned more quickly, for they could be bored with ao augur and fired in tho center. The erounds have been seeded to grass, and shade tree have been planted along the roadside, in ad' dltlou to those planted in tne para. ' Last apring the school received a set ot fine historical pictures from the Youth's Companion, aa a recognition from that paper for their work of beau tifying their school grounds, and to pro cure money with which to purchase irauiua fur "the picture and to procure other ornaments for the school room, tbe boy took the contract to supply the wood for this term of achool. Yet with all thl extra work tbe pupil in thia school rank as high In itheir studies a do those of any other school in tbe county, for their pride in the school has been an incentive to harder study. The Delena achool, in addition to ita handsome grounds, has a fine building furnished with thirty single, adjustable desks, globe, dictionary, etc., and a ninety-foot flag pole for the flag. When a bell can be bad for tbe belfry this school expects to rank with tbe best country school of Oregon." NOTICE) TO CREDITORS).
