The Hood River fair will be late this year on account of the lateness of the " season. Apples . seem to be slow abont . colpring and . maturing. ' It is thought beet by some to hold the fair in October. The Methodist ' and Congregational churches both advertise a change of the time of the evening service from 8 ' o'clock to 7 :30.

'' . " J . Miss Annette Brown of Belfast, Me., is trying to find the whereabouts' of her brother, Alden Brown,' who was em ployed at one ' time' at the . Umatilla bouse, afterwards ""working "for Mike Welsh. Anyone knowing his where abouts' should inform his anxious re latives in faraway Maine. " - Grant Evans was . fishing in - Hood river, above the bridge, last. Tuesday, when he caught a salmon on his hook. Before he could haul in his line the salmon escaped, and his hook' caught a trout, and before he could secure the trout it managed to wriggle off, and his . hook caught a white fish before he had. hauled in. his line. Glacier. r There is disaffection among the sheep men and farmers on Upper Hood River. .The Glacier 'say 8: A band of sheep were reported on tbe head of Neal creek Monday. " A committee of 'citizens from the East Sidewent np on that day and notified the . herders -that they would have to move. A man .was sent again on Wednesday to see if they had moved, and if not they will receive some help to move their camps from the citizens of the East Side. ' A number of mines which were "worked out" in Southern Oregon forty years ago will be the" scene of active operation again. In the early days as soon as a mine ceased to . give rich re turns with the primitive methods em ployed, i he owner left it for smother, or, attracted by reports from some distant gold field, left for new scenes. "Faugh! ' look at the Bryan man," was the contemptuous remark of an urcbiu .yesterday as he saw another wearing a Bryan cap. "I haint neither," was the answer. "The Mackinlies are all gone, and I only had 15 cents." The explanation was satisfactory and the re cruit was declared eligible to slide down. the McKinley boy's cellar door.-. Two winsome maidens stood on th incline one morning this -week waving' an adieu with their handkerchiefs to some friends . who. were being borne down the river by the Regulate, when one of them said suddenly to her com panion, and loud enough for the reporte: to hear: "Why look at that fool" man he is waving his handkerchief, too,' ah I don't know him. WelL (forgivingly)' I guess its customary for everyone to wave , their handkerchief, ; ain't it?" And as the other readily - agreed, the delicious blnsb gradually faded away. Stole Children's Possessions. Sometimes ' what seems ' smart turns out to be pitiably contemptible. Last spring a woman living ,2) miles west of Hood River planted four hills of watermelons in the garden to please the children, and by. chance -there grew thereon thirty fine melons. 'But before the children had a chance to enjoy any of them some bright young gentlemen went in the night and helped them selves to all the best in the patch. The next morning the children contemplated the destruction with quivering lips, and heavy hearts.' The sorrows of childhood are just as distressing, though of a dif ferent nature, as those of their elders. Who can "measure the pleasure of an ticipation and' speculation those little ones enjoyed while watching the melon vines lengthen and bloom, noting daily the increasing size' of the fruit thereon till', just as they 'approached maturity they were abstracted while they inno cently slept. Let us be charitable enough to hope the thieves did not think, of this. : - ; ' : ' , ' Concert Program Tomorrow.' 1. , March -'Golden Trumpet" ...... .Bamlunue 2.

SOMETHING TREMENDQUSO Four Saccesslre Clondbnrsts . Around Mitchell With Continuous nins; Flashes. -'.;-. . . The storm of.las't Sunday and Monday was especially vigorous in the southern part of this and. in .Crook county. Mr. A. S. Mac. Allister who hag just returned from his ranch tells of water being a foot deep over a level field, which descended from the heavens, like a broad sheet. ine storm was attended by : incessant lightning flashes',' and was in all respects like a genuine eastern -water spent and thunder storm combined. All old rest dents say they never saw anything' like it. The .roads leading to Bridge creek were washed out of existence and the it became a ' raging torrent. The stage driver was compelled ' to abandon the stage and earried the mail on horseback. At Mitchell the. dam and flume at" the1 mill was destroyed, as" well as a foot bridge. A wagon with its load of lum ber on the creek bottom was taken down the stream. ; Low-lying fields of water melon and pumpkin vines were over flowed, ana the melons and pumpkins scattered '. .through the ' sage brash. There were fear cloudbursts, in succes sion. Sunday night, and it is thought..! they had fell in combined force there would have been much greater loss! The following day- the rainfall, though continuous, was moderate in . volume: xo aamage was done to-, tne- hay crop as that had been harvested. - Cut It Remained Tor Cleveland " . ' ,-Carry: Out the Act. to A bostile.sheet recently contained the following: . - ' . -v . ' The sheepralsers who are' so bitterlv denouncing President Cleveland because the Cascade forest ..reserve is closed to their flocks should bear in mind that the bill creating the forest reserve was passed and approved during. President Harrison's administration. That was indeed a protection administration to the extent that it sought to protect the grass in the mountains against the en croachments of sheep's teeth. The act referred to, which was passed and approved in March, 1891, merely authorized the.president to set apart cer tain lands in this district as a forest re serve, ueiag his own -judgment and dis cretion as to the boundaries. - In garri son's judgment, and discretion it' must have been his opinion that a forest re serve in Oregon was not a good thing, for he did not set apart a single acre for such a purpose. It. remained for his successor, .President Cleveland,- to do that, for in " September, 1893, he made the proclamation,. now so troublous, es tablishing the reserve -and 'fixing, the boundaries thereof.' So if it was a job a Democratic president consummated it. Harrison' did not. " -- : ' Should Be Scattered Wholesale. , illusrrations. But the text is not less noticeable.
