Gradually onr roads are being im
proved, until the first thing they know
the newspapers will awaken to the fact
that a splendid subject to fall back on
when items are scarce has Blipped from
their grasp. For over a week past
Marehal Lauer has had charge of ft force
of men who have been and are now
working on a road on Kelly avenue, on
the east side .of John Cates' property.
If there was one road above another
which needed repairs it wa9 this one,
and town people, as well as the residents
of Dry Hollow, will note this improve
ment with satisfaction.
Although the weather was somewhat
uncertain yesterday morning, rain mak
ing its appearance at an early hour, and
causing all to he reminded of the old
saying that when it rain's on Easter we
may expect it to contiune for the seven
Sundays following, the day turned out
to be really a -beautiful Easter day. Its
observance was general throughout the
different churches of our city, excepting
the Methodist. Each pastor delivered
a sermon appropriate to the cccasion,
and some very pretty Easter music was
rendered by the various- chcire. In
spite of the fact that it was eomewhat
eariy for the flower season, potted plants
and wild flowers were 60 generously
used in the decoration of the altars that
these reminders of the glad Easter tide,
with all its freshness atd cheer, were
not lacking, but present, as typical of
the great resurrection which all had
gathered to celebrate.
Yesterday afternoon Sheriff Kelly re
ceived a letter from I. H. Taffe informing
him that one Indian had murdered
another yesterday morning at DetChutes
bridge, about three miles east of Celilo.
The Indian who did the killing is sup
posed to be the same one who killed
Indian Jim at Celilo last winter, al
though there is no positive proof, as no
one saw. the deed. His victim was a
boy, whose throat he cut and then
dragged his body to a chicken house
where he hid it to conceal his crime
until he could escape, which be suc
ceeded in doing. The Celilo Indians
say he bas gone to Warm Springs, as he
frequently made trips there. He is a
lame Indian and uses crutches. The
Indians in that vicinity are much ex
cited and a number are engaged in
bunting him. Mr. iaUd will arrive on
the afternoon train, and Sheriff Kelly or
Lis deputy will accompany him back, to
do their best to Becure the murderer,
having already sent word to Warm
Springs.
This morning at 8:30 a special tram
passed through our city on its way to
Vancouver carrying the famous Forty-
fourth regiment, which made itself
known on San Juan heights, when, com
pelling the faltering New York regi
ment to lie proBtrate on the ground they
marched over them - and gained the
victory. There were as fine a lot
of colored men on the train this
morning as could be seen, commanded
by Capt. Wygant. While there were a
great many of thoee who composed the
original regiment, there were also
number of recruits. They left Salt
Lake Saturday night and probably
reached Vancouver barracks, where
they will be stationed, at 12 o'clock
Vancouver signified her intention of re
ceiving them as such heroes should be
received, regardless of color, for when
facing shot and ebell no thought of color
was then considered. Somehow we
felt this morning as if some welcome
should have been given them here, or
some recognition of their bravery shown
However, very few knew they would
pass through this morning, so aside
from a slight demonstration as the train
pulled out from the Umatilla house
there was no special reception tendered
them.
DUFUR EDUCATIONAL MEETING.
A. Splendid Meeting A Number
Dalles Teachers Present.
At Dufur, Oregon, Saturday, April 1,
1899, the meeting opened at 1:30 p. m.
with County Supt. Gilbert in the chair.
The program began by all singing our
national song, "America." This was
followed by a few appropriate remarks,
by Supt. Gilbert, noting some of the
improvements made in Waeeo county
during the last year, and pointing out
some places where more could follow.
Rebecca V. Wilson, primary teacher
of the Dnfur school, in her paper on
"The Spirit of the School Room," in
troduced some good ideas along the line
of echoo! room work. The paper called
forth an earnest dieenssion, participated
in by State Supt. Ackerman, Prof. J. T.
Neffand Mr. Underwood.
Margaret Le Due read an excellent
paper on ''Civil Government." She
thought that a higher value should be
placed upon our politics and methods ot
conducting our government. City Supf .
Gavin, of The Dalles, diEcuseed the sub
ject at length. As teachers will soon
have to take examination in, and teach
civil government, it will soon make
its appearance in the common schools
as a regular etudy.
. "School Management," by C. R.
Deems, advocated the free uee of adap
tion to circumstances and earnestly pro
tested sgainst the habit of becoming
mere machines. Make individuality the
object and aim was hie forcible arpu
ment. The subject was fully diecussed.
Following this the entire audience
joined in a hearty song and were die
missed for a short recess.
The next session was opened by an
excellent paper on "The Common School
Branches Do They Proferly Fit the
Pupil for After Life," by C. M. Sissone,
of the Boyd school. The concensus of
opinion agreed so fully with the paper
that Supt. Ackerman made a motion to
have it published in The Oregon Teach
er's Monthly and The La Grande School
News. Mr. Siasons proposes. an elimina
tion of useless matter in text books.
nd the addition of vocal music and
drawing to the regular school curriculum.
Some schools of the county are already
leading out in this line, among which
might be mentioned the Hood River
Echool.
G. W. Brown gave an able talk upon
'Success in Teaching," emphasizing the
fact that there must be co-ordination
among teachers, parents and pupils.
Following G. W. Brown, Supt. Gilbert
announced the sad news of the death of
Miss Nellie Hudson, a Wasco county
teacher, who came next on the program.
The following resolutions were read and
adopted :
Whereas Miss Nellie Hudson, whose
name appears in connection with a topic
on today's program, has eince the plan
ning of this educational meeting de
parted this life, be it
liesolved . 1 hat we the teachers of
Wasco county here assembled, feel that
n toe death of Miss Hudson we have
lost a faithful and efficient helper. That
we ehall long remember ber quiet and
earnest work in the county institutes
and feel that her influence, was that of
true teacher. - That ' we extend our
sympathy to the bereaved home, in this
loss of a beloved daughter and sister.
State Supt. J. H. Ackerman on the
New Oregon School Law, explained the
work of the last legislature upon the
echool . law. Prof. Ackerman i9 now
preparing a uniform course of study for
the Oregon schools which will be out by
July 1st. . No need to eay that this will
be an excellent plan, as it is a self evi
dent. fact, and with J. H. Ackerman at
the helm it is an assured success.
At 5 o clock the meeting adjourned to
meet again in two weeks at Hood River
on April 15, 1809. ,

the Eastel flowers formed a' background
and made the pall and the Ehroud less
dark and drear as the pall bearers, com
posed of Messrs. Cross, Hood, Hall,
Wheaidon, Bolton and Kirby, placed
the casket in front of the altar.
The church choir sang "Thy Will Be
Don," "One Sweetly Solemn Thought"
,and "While Thou Art Near." Rev.
Warner spoke very tenderly of the life
of the deceased ; of the cheerfulnecs
which attracted all to her and made
her Christian life so powerful in the
community. Also of the influence and
impetus which it-had given him. He
spoke of the great help she had been to
her husband in his greatest of all call-"
ings, and said that much of bis success
could be attributed to her faithfulness.
Dr. H. K. Hines also dwelt on the
beauty of the Christian experience aa
exemplified in the life of the departed.
No woman could be called to a higher
sphere than that of the wife of the
minister of the gospel. Every city,
hamlet, mining camp, or wherever her
lot has been cast, was blessed by her
pretence, and the fruit of her labor of
love is still broadening and blessing al
though her voice is now silenced forever.
Many friends followed the remains to
Odd Fellows' cemetery, where Dr.
Hines . conducted the burial service,
preyious to which the choir 9ang "Home
of the Soul." At the close of the service
the young ladies of the Epworth League
covered the grave with the most beauti
ful flowers, tokens from friends who
thus showed their love for the departed.
