A regular meeting of the board of
directors of school district No. 1 was
held at the office of the clerk. Those
present were G. Holmes, chairman; J.
A. Eakin, James W. Welch, F. J.
Taylor and T. L. Ball of the board
and A. L. Clark, superintendent and
clerk.
The minutes of the last regular.
meeting and the special meeting of
May 13, 1908, were read and ap
proved.
Communications from Mr. A. E.
Koenig. Miss Dora Badollet and Miss
Annie M. Powell, offering excuses for
absence from teachers' meeting, were
read, and by motion, were accepted as
valid excuses.
' A telegram from John G. Imel ac
cepting the principalship of the High
School was read and placed on file.
A communication from Mrs. Jennie
Busey, announcing her intention of re
tiring from the school-room as a
teacher, and thanking the Board of
past courtesies extended to her, was
read and placed on file, and the clerk
was instructed to acknowledge receipt
of the same and enclose a check of
$10 to her as a token of appreciation
for the long and faithful service ren
dered the district by her.
The committe appointed to arrange
a schedule of salaries reported as fol
lows: Principal of High School, $100
to $110; High School teachers, $75 to
$90; principal of ward schools, four
rooms, $70 to $80 and $5.00 for each
additional room; eighth grade, $65 to
$75; first primary, $60 to $75; inter
mediate, $55 to $70.
"We think it would be unwise to
adopt any rigid rule by which promo
tions should be made, because teach
ers do not all possess the same merits;
but would recommend that teachers
be advanced $5 per year until the
maximum is reached, when in the
opinion of the board, teachers are do
ing good, conscientious work; but the
board should reserve the right to
withhold promotions, or to promote at
less rate where full promotion is, in
the opinion of the board, no justified."
Signed,
J. A. EAKIN,
FRANK J. TAYLOR,
Committee,
At the suggestion of the superin
tendent, the chair appointed J. A.
Eakin and T. L. Ball to act with the
superintendent in the selection of
teachers to fill the remaining six
positions.
The superintendent recommended
that the position now held by Miss
May C. Miller be held open for her
until the August examination of
teachers.
The clerk was instructed to notify
the teachers elected to sign contract
on or before June 20, 1908.

The Pacific Coast Gas & Oil Com
pany, of Portland, with its big field of
operations in and around Oneida,
Wash., on Deep River, and about 10
miles from this city, is down to, gen
uine development work, with a big
machinery plant at work on the farm
of John Nelson, which forms a part
of the 6000 acres of land which the
company has leased for a term of 20
years.
Vice-President R. A. Wade, of
Portland, was in the city yesterday,
en route to the first well-site and will
be there for several days. He says
the company has installed about $8000
worth of fine practical machinery on
the grounds and will make a protract
ed and determined effort to reach the
products they are after.
The wells are being drilled by
Messrs. Magner & Carle, men of ex
perience in every successful field in
the United States. The surface exu
dation from the company's territory
have been experted at Berkeley and
at other prominent laboratories, and
the consensus of opinion gives the
fixed ration of 93 per cent of natural
gas; and this has just been supple
mented by the expert findings of W.
M. Gordon, of Pittsburg, Pa., than
whom there is not a better authority
in the country.
The company is capitalized at $300,-
000. Alex Sweek, of Portland, is its
president; Clayton L. Barber, of In
dianapolis, is treasurer, and Geo. L.
Hutchins, of Portland, is the secre
tary. William Anderson and
ATTEMPTS TO LEAP
FROM 3RD STORY
FRED GILSE AT THE ST. MARY'S
HOSPITAL RESCUED IN NICK
OF TIME.
Fred Gilse, an inmate of the St.
Mary's Hospital caused considerable
excitement among the patients and
nurses yesterday afternoon when h
attempted to leap from the third
story verenda. Gilse, who is a French
man, and is known by the name of
"Frenchy", is being treated for dropsy
and is at times delirious, at which
times the nurses are required to keep
a watchful eye on him. Yesterday
however, during one of his attacks he
managed to escape from his room un
noticed by any one, and crawled on
hand and knees down the hall making
straight for the veranda, a distance of
about a hundred feet. He succeeded
in reaching the destination when he
was discovered by an old sailor, also
a patient at the hospital, in the act
of mounting the railing, he was grasp
ed and pulled back by his rescuer just
in the nick of time. In the meantime
several nurses were attracted upon
the scene besides numerous patients
one of them calling for the steward
who with the assistantce of a few
others finally succeeded in dragging
him back to his room, much to his
demonstration. He was locked up anfl
hereafter will be kept under a watch
ful eye for any other dangerous
attacks.
