Enterprise : The public mind has never been fully convinced regarding the accuracy of the attitude and ascent of Mt. Hood, for there are a great many persons , who say that the summit ot Mt. Ho d never has leeii reached and never will be, and that those "parties" who say they have j been on top are simply mistaken. On the j other side those saitt " parries" state with i eo.ua! emphasis that "Hood's hoary crest" can be reached, and bring very convinc ! ing proofs that tliev have done so. Still there are, many who s ill doubt, and to remove their unbelief the following SOVKL PLAN has leen proposed, viz : On July 4th, at 9 A. M., to burn on the summit of Hood as large a Itonfue as materials can Ik had for. and send up sky-rockets, shoot Koman candles, arH have it understood over the State so that the different towns may be on the lookout, and reiort. We assert that the above CAN BE DONE on the authority of ohk of the previous "arty," and the same reliable erson states that it WILL AH DONE. Parties will make Summit Prairie their place of meeting on July 2d. There is a txood wa-'on roatl to i:, onlv CO miles from Port land and 5-5 from t'ie JJalles. On July 3 1 the lirst attempt will be made by everyone who wants to, and if successful, a grand display may be exacted July 4th. JULY FOURTH the tarty will ascend and take with them combustibles, sky-rockets, teleseop s.and all insti niueiits necessary for a-ain meas uring the attitude, and a ftt-r leaving me mentoes etc., return to base of mountain to watch operations. Two (or more) men will stay on top. liro les and M illcr, of Tvgh valb-y, have volunteered to stay and light I m mil re, an 1 see to sky-rockets, Koman candles, etc. The time for the illu inatioii will be '9 o'clock p. m., JULY 4th. The movers in this project start from Tygh valley and intend to carry everything through. A cordial invitation is extended to all throughout the Slate to meet them at Summit Pratrie July 2d. It will be a camping tarty, and the necessary outfit will be ' CAMPING UTENSILS, consisting of axes, ropes, guns, fishing- rods, plenty of blankets, and for tin mountains, l'oots, with spikes in them, compass, telescope, etc., and mementoes to leave on the mountain for other parties. There are many varieties ot flowers in the moun'ains, unclassiiied. Cannot some one who takes an interest in liotany be along? in conclusion, let every town in siht of Mt. Hood burn a large bonlire.that those on the mom. tain may report having seen, down. when tiiev come K -LThd." l'roai Yamhill. Dayton, May 7, 1S77.

ROMEO ON THE WAR PATH. Editor Enterprise : Romeo is still courting under difficulties, lie called to see his J uliet a short time since, supposing that those No. 10s were not at home; but what was his surprise when the door opened and No. lijs exhibited his lofty form to lis view. Romeo turned tore treat as usual, followed by No. 10s, who was in close pursuit, but our hero as be fore, being too fleet for his pursuer, and not having his big brother there to open the gate for him, he scaled the fence and was soon in the public road, v here some rough language was made use of and then the fun Itegan. No. 10s camo out of the skirmish w ith a lame eve.aud Romeo now mourns the loss of his ! all-faced shirt, which he lost in the coin hat; but No. 10s being a very generous hearted individual ltrofrered to donate him two dollars and a 1 alf to buy him a new one, but Romeo thought he could probably raise the neces sary funds to purchase his own shirt and cane without the aid of a subscription. However, neither party was verv itadlv demoralized, and the voting warrior de parted, but not in peace with the whole world, tor he was informed that his Juliet's sweetness for him had turned to gall and wormwood, and that the rose would prob ably be garnered to adorn the heart of an other, and there would be nothing left for him but the thorns. The course of true love never did run smooth. More anon. - Sneezer. FlC-NiC The Sunday School pic-nic to Vancouver last Friday was largely attend ed and was a very pleasant affair. The committee from the various Sunday Schools had everything in running order, and are deser in'? of considerable credit for their excellent management. Long beforethe hour apitointcd the commodious steamer S. T. Church w as crow;led with young folk , and at 7'i o'clock the boat started for Vancouver, stopping at Mil- waiiKieaud l'.trtland to take on more plc- nicKers, and arrived at itsdcstmat ion about 11 o'clock. The pleasure-seekers at once wended their way to a pleasant grove, where they spread their dinners and en joyed it to the greatest extent possible. After their hearty repast thev proceeded 10 enjoy inemsei ves as suited their differ ent tastes reclining in the shades of th grove, visiting the barracks and cemetery playing ball, swinging, etc., until altout o clock, when the whistle of the boat an nounced that it was time to depart for Home, the ladies and gent leiin-n ot tin different church choirs of this city favored us with sweet music both going and com ing, lor which they are deservingot many thanks. The S. T. Church was oineereti by J. .Cochran, captain, Doc. McCullv, clerk, and James Cochran, our ever smil nig young friend, as general man iger,and they all did their best, to make the trip pleasant for the pic-nickers, and we must say they did their part well. No accidents of nv kind occurred to mar the pleasures or the day. ami home was reached about 0 o'clock. The managing committee report the excursion a success, financially and oinei w ise.
