RAIN CAUSES DAMAGE Trains on Dallas & Falls City Rail road Are Delayed On Account of Slides. The heavy rains of last week caused several small slides on the Dallas Falls City railroad, and trains were delayed for a few hours. Chie Engineer J. W. Coovertcame up from Portland and soon had a force of workmen repairing the damaged roadbed. The new track is standing the wet weather and heavy trafflo ex ceedingly well, when the fact Is taken into consideration that the road was built only a few months ago and has hardly had time to settle. Mr. Coovert will probably remain in Dallas three or four weeks, superintending the work of strengthening the grade i places where slides or washouts are most likely to occur. The damage cause'd by the recent rains is small Less fortunate is the Johnson Lum ber Company, whose wing dam o the (Jutler farm west of town was washed away by the recent freshet, The LaCreole river reached a high stage of water in a few hours after the rain began, so steady was the downpour, and the new wing dam was not sufficiently strong to withstand the heavy current and soon gavo way. The dam was built last Summer at an expense of several hundred dollars. v The new cribbing along the South side of the company's log pond with stood the action of the high water in fairly good shape, but it is believed that prompt measures to strengthen the embankmont will have to be taken in order to render the pond absolutely safe for the storing of logs. The LaCreole is a quiet stream and easily controlled in seasons of low water, but when It gets on a tear in the Winter months it is a hard one to handle, as many mill men and farmers living along its banks have learned to their great expense and inconvenience. Phillip Heinrich and Maria Menke were married in Dallas, Saturday Rev. W. T. Wardle, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, officiating, These people were formerly husband and wife, but were granted a divorce at St. Helens, Columbia county, about three weeks ago, after a stubbornly contested suit." Mr. and Mrs." Hein rich separated in Dallas early last Spring, and Mrs. Heinrich went to Columbia county, where she brought suit against Mr. Heinrich for a di vorce, alleging neglect and cruel and inhuman treatment. Mr. Heinrich filed a cross complaint, and upon a hearing before Judge McBride, was awarded a decree of divorce. Mrs, Heinrich, however, was allowed to take her maiden name, Maria Menke, At the conclusion of a spirited and expensive suit, both parties seemed to regret the action they had taken, and a disposition to "let bygones be byeones" was most noticeable on the part of both plaintiff and defendant. Early last week Mrs. Heinrich came to Dallas, and on Saturday a license to wed was applied for by the couple, and was granted by County Clerk U. S. Loughary. The marriage took place Saturday evening.

Probably the most successful Teachers' Institute that has ever been held in Polk county is now in session at the courthouse. Ninety teachers are in attendance, and the work of the instructors is received with enthusi astic interest. The Institute hpgan Wednesday morning, and will close this afternoon. County School Super intendent Starr has worked hard to make the annual meeting of teachers one of interest, and is highly gratified by the large attendance and the prac tical work being done. L. It. Traver, Superintendent of the Salem schools, has charge of the Reading and Number work, and is giving the teachers practical instruc tion, which will be profitably carried into the schools of the county. Super intendent Traver gave au excellent talk on School Room Decoration on Wednesday afternoon. Thursday, he defended the vertical system of writ ing and instructed the teachers how to teach it, and today will close his work with an address on School Libraries. His work has been highly satisfactorv. E. D. Ressler, President of the Ore gon State Normal School at Mon mouth, has given instruction in Methods, History and Language in such a manner as to not only interest the teacher, but has proven himself an able institute instiuctor. His closing topic today will be the National Educational Association at Boston. Rev. D. V. Poling, of The Dalles, was unable to reach Dallas in time to deliver the lecture for which he was scheduled Wednesday evening, and in his absence President Ressler de lighted the audience with an address on "The Philosophy of Happiness." State Superintendent J. H. Acker- man, in his address to the teachers this afternoon, will outline a prac tical program for the rural schools. His talk will be of ereat benefit to teachers who are forced to have a multiplicity of daily recitations. Superintendent Ackerman's subject yesterday afternoon was Spellinc;. and he handled it in a masterful manner. The lecture last night bv Josenh Schafer, Professor of History in the University of Oregon, was enjoyed by a large audience. iTor. Scnarer had his subject well in hand, and his lecture was an intellectual treat. Miss Edna Parrish, Professor of Oratory and Expression in Dallas Collecre. has contributed greatly to the pleasure or tne evening entertainments by her clever recitations. The musical pro gram has also been good. Tomorrow the school directors and clerks will meet and discuss topics of interest. A laree attendance of school officers is expected, and the nieetinor ' o will doubtless be interesting and profitable to all. The teachers who have already registered are : MONMOUTH.
