A Gathering; of Teaehers and Dedication
Kxerciaes or New School Building
Barrett District No. 4. .
The morning session, Saturday, Nov.
5, was opened by a chorus "Greeting
Glie."
Reading, by Miss Grace Graham, 1st
Luermediute Hood River school,
brought forth some excellent ideas and
mentioned a number of good methods
and devices to be employed in teacn
in, reading. A general discussion
followed. The genet al opinion pre
vailing among the teachers present,
being that not enough of the proper
kind of supplementary reading matter
is supplied the pupils in our schools
and that reading, the '"key" to all
other studies, becomes far too often, a
dry, uninteret-tinjr topic, where as it
should be one of the most interesting
as wll as instructive. Reading, along
tbe line of biography, history, geo
graphy and travel should be supplied
in every school no matter bow small.
Through the earnest efforts of County
Superintendent Gilbert an active
move is being made along this line.
Writing, by Miss Katie Davenport,
of Odell district, No. 5, disclosed a
carefully written paper and demons
trated tbe inconsistency of pupils buy
ing the material seDarately, when by
buying in larger quantities the same
supplies may be bad at least at one
fourth the ordinary cost.
Prin. J. T. Neff, of Fi ankton dis
trict gave an interesting talk: upon the
methods of teaching decimals. The
topic was thoroughly exhausted and no
discussion followed.
Mrs. R. R. Allard, 1st assistant Bar
rett. Distr'ct No 4, rendered a pathetic
recitation entitli d "On Guard'-' wbich
called vividly to mind our brave boys
at Manila. .This closed tbe morning
session. The meeting then adjourned
for luncneon whicb was served in a
very generous way by the ladies of the
district. The teachers, in general
showed an excellent proficiency along
this line. County Superintendent
Gilbert nad Messrs. Allard and Neff
especially distinguished themselves.
The afternoon session was opened
by tbe vocal chorus, "Our Nation,"
the first number on the dedication
program, Mr. C. G. Cunning presid
ing; followed by an invocation by Rev.
J. W. Jenkins.
A five minutes talk followed upon
"What Is Wasco County Doing in the
Way of Building-up Schools?" Over
$35,009 being expended in this direc
tion during the school year of '97 and
'98, with the probability of $50,000
being expended tbe coming year.
Our School," by Dr. P. G. barrett.
the first clerk of what is now district
No. 4, but originally No. 34, brought
forth tbe - fact that there was but one
school house in Hood River valley in
1871, and that tbe Barret' district, the
next to be organized in the valley.
was cut off in 1877. He recounted the
hard struggle tbey had in organizing
the district and raising tbe necessary
funds for erecting tbe building, wbicb
has been used ever since, but its days
of usefulness are oxer now as the Bar
rett district has a beautiful oew, two-
roomed building, well-lighted and ven
tilated, and furnished with a generous)
supply of modern apparatus, and its.
destiny guided by two wide-awake,
modern teachers.
Tbe above was followed by a song
entitled "The Flag Above Our House."
Tbe presentation of a fine new flag
by R. R. Ira bier, representative oi tbe
pupils of tbe school, was made in
neat and eloquent manner. .
ltesponee and acceptance by Chair
man C. G. Cunning, tense with pat
riotism,, recalled a flag presentation
from one company to another in wbich
he was, on the old battlefield of Shiloh
A motion was made and carried that
Mr. Cunning allow his speech printed
for the public.
A vote of thanks was tendered tbe
board of directors and Contractor
Boyd, for the faithfulness and effi
ciencv with whicb the work of build
ing the new school house was dis
patched.
The entire audience then joined in
singing, ''America," and passed out
to witness the raising of the new flag
and tbe flag salute.
Another educational meeting will be
held on Saturday, Nov. ' 19th. at the
Frank ton school house, two miles west
of Hood River: '
The following teachers were pres
ent: Principal J. T. N ff. County Su
perintendent Gilbert. Miss Emma Ben

HaaaaaaaaaaaaM
. m. MTT.M MEPICALOft, Mfchftrfc lad,
doors, and when the curtain arose re
vealing some 40 students of the higher
grades there was one of the largest
audiences, ever assembled in Tbe
Dalles, to greet them. These young
peop e, bright and vivacious, constitute
the juvenile chorus and sang 'The
American Hymn" with a spirit thai
indicated an abundance of patriousti ,
and most perfect training in voice cui
ture.
Following this song. Harry Curtis
delivered an oration entiilt-d, "The
American and Freuch Revolutions."
Mr. Curtis reviewed many of the
events of those wars and the promi
nent oart taken ia them by Lafayette.
His oration was well worded aud de
Hatred iu a manner which bespi ke
ability and careful training.
Twenty-four little girls and boy
next appeared on the siatre and sang
that pop ilar song "Atn -rica. Our
Home," so perfectly as to merit a
hearty applause. Then Miss Martl.a
Baldwin recited the "American Flag
aod "!be Proud Flag of Freedom."
These recitations were happily ren
dered and cailed for hearty applause.
Ivan Oakes' essay, "American Al
lies in tbe Revolutionary War" exhibi
ted careful study in its preparation
and was an interes-tin? paper. And
the solo "Mourir Pour La Patrie'
by Miss Lucile Crate was very
prettily sung.
Next was a tableau "France Con
soling the Goddess of Liberty" Miss
Anna Haslem, sitting on a white
pedestal represented tlie goddess of
liberty witb the American flag en
twined about her. when Miss Carrie
Zeitrl' r appeared representing France
offering consolation to the young re
public. The tableau was very pretty
and was higl-.ly appreciated by the
audience.
"Great Men's Estimates of Lafay
ette" was recited by Joseph McArlhur
th9 quotations being , some of the
prettiest gems of American literature
and expressions from tha greatest
minds of the nation.
An essay by Miss Martha Whealdon
entitled "The Inflnenceof Lafayette
in France and America" was a very
able paper, being replete with in
teresting historical facts and dispiaed
marked ability on the part of the
young lady who prepared It. The solo
The Flag That Has Never Known
Defeat" sung oy Miss Margarette
Kinersly brought forth a burst of
applause that evidenced tbe appreci
ation of the audience both of tbe song
and the singer.
The prettiest feature of the exer
cises was a drill executed by 32 little
girls, half representing France and
half carrying red, white and blue
bunting representing Ameirca. After
executing a beautiful drill the 16 rep
resenting France came to the front of
the stage and sang "Marseilles Hmn,"
then gave way to the 16 representing
America who sang the "Hymn of the
Republic" This was followed by little
Nova Dawson reciting "The Raggedy
Man" In a most bewitching manner.
Tbe most attractive feature however
was kept to tbe last. The unveiling
of Lafayette's monument (scene Paris,
July 4, 1900).Wheo tho curtain aroee a
figure wound in white was discovered
on the stage and Clarence Gilbert de
livered an approp-'iate unveiling ad
dress, then unwound the drapery
disclosing a statue that was almost a
perfect representation of the honored
Lafayette, in tbe person of George
Ruch. Strains of music were heard in
the distance, and some 40 little chil
dren appeared on tbe stage depositing
bo juets at the foot of the statue.
The exercises closed by tbe audi

terminated an event that does credit
to our schools and to American ap

MURDERED IN
COLD BLOOD.
Philip Brogan Killed by
Frank Forester at
Antelope.
MURDERER ES3APES
When Last Heard of He Wa
Headed for Mitchell, Witb
Officers and Citizens
iu Pursuit.
About 6 o'clock last Saturday eye -iog
Phil Brogan. sr., was killed in F.
W. Sil vertooth's saloon ai. Antelope,
by Frank Forester, a man who had
been working for him during the past
year.
As nearascin be learned the circum
stances of the killing aod the r-aure
leading up to the tragedy were as fol
lows: (
Forester had . been working as
packer for Mr. Brogan for about a
year, ami bad been authorized to draw
cnecks in payment for supplies for Mr.
Brogan's sheep camps. Some time
since they bad a settlement and it was
discovered tbat Fores-ter was in debt
to Mr. Brogan, and it was agreed that
be shouli continue work and pay back
out of bis wages what he had over
drawn. They met in Antelope Satur
day morning to make a settlement,
but Mr. Brogan had been thrown from
a horse Friday and was suffering from
his Injuries, so it was agreed that the
settlement should be postponed until
Sunday.
During tbe day Forrester and two
companions, a fellow known as Slim
and a Mexican followed Mr Brogan
from place to place, and seemed de
sirous of picking a quarrel, and at one
time Forester and a Mr. Gum had
some hot words.
About 6 o'clock Forester, Slim and
tbe Mexican entered Silvertooth's
saloon, where Mr. Brogan, Mr. McRae
Mr. Gum and a number of others were.
Slim invited all bands to drink, but
Mr. Brogan declined, stating tbat
he was not feeling well. During the
conversation about the drinks, For
ester took off his coat and announced
his intention of whipping Brogan,
when Frank Gum came in and prompt
ly knocked Forester down. Slim
then jumped onto Gum. and
Mr. McRae then knocked Slim
to the floor. When Slim got
up he seized a chair and started for
Brogan, when McRie took the cbair
from him, and in the excitement
Forester made a rush at Brogan with
a knife, striking him in the heart. In
tbe mean time Mr. Brogan had got
Dear to the door, having passed around
the men wbo were engaged in tbe
altercation. '; When struck with the
knife, he said "Bjys I'm Killed," and
fell to the floor expiring almost in
stantly. Forester immediately got out tbe
door, and it Is thought he headed for
Mitchell, 'hat having been his home.
Deputy Sheriff Brown started a posse
in pursuit, but at last accounts they
had not overtaken the murderer.
Forester is a large man, about six
feet in height, ligbt complexioned,
and when he was last seen had on
neither cpat nor bat and wore a red
sweater. He was a sort of a shiftless
individual, and had lived about Mit
chell for a number of years. -
Phil Brogan was an Irishman by
birth, and was 52 years of age. ' He
came here about 25 years ago and en
gaged in sheep raising near Antelope,
where be accumulated a considerable
amount of property. About seven
years ago bis wife died leaving six
small children, five girls and one boy
the youngest an infant. Mr. Brogan
moved his family to The Dalles, build
ing a comfortable residence on Third
street, where tbe family has sinee re
sided, though Mr. Brogan has retain
ed bis land and stock interests at An
telope which has , necessitated his
being at that place a great portion of
his time.
Phil Brogan was an honest, gener
ous man, ever ready to lend aid to tbe
needy and divide his last mite with
the afflicted. He was one whom every-
dody respected and his sudden death
has cat a gloom over tbe entire com
munity. .
Sodden Death.
James Hartman died very suddenly
nine miles south of Tbe Dalles, ou Mill
creek, last night. He aod a party of
other men were working on the county
road aod Mr. Hartman was in ap
parent good health when he retired
last night. He and Daniel O'Brien
slept together, aod Mr. O'Brien did
not notice anything unusual with his
companion during tbe nis-bt, but when
he undertook to awaken him for break
fast, be found Mr. Hartman was dead,
death having occurred some time dur
ing the oight and without a struggle.
Mr. Hartmro was about 60 years of
age and was a member of the G. A. R.
For several years he was slightly afflic
ted with heart trouble, aod it ia pre
sumed his death was due to heart fail
ure.
