To the Top of Mount Hood.
After getting out last week's issue
the Glacier force, took a day off and
- the editor, with his family, hied him
self to the woods and went into camp
above t lie clouds at Uloud Cap inn,
where they breathed the invigorating
"zone and feasted on the grandeur of
the scenery. We lett town at o'clock
Friday morning with ourselves and
rumnltitr outfit loaded in one of the
Mountain Stage Co. 's easy-riding four
horse hacks, and with Eph Olinger as
driver, reurhe't too Dridge crossing tne
East Fork of Hood liver at 11 o'clock.
Here lunch whs had, a -hnnge of horses
and drivers made, and with Capt. J. H.
Ferguson pushing the ribbons the Inn
whs reached hy 4:80, after passing over
' one of the best mountain roads on the
coast. As the stage emerges from the
dense forest into the opening surround
ing the Inn, situated on the highest
point of a spur of the mountuin, the
night is magnificently grand. Tower
ing skyward, seemingly but a stone's
throw before you. is hoary Hood,-with
preat fields of Btiow glistening in the
sunlight. . Craggy precipices, a sheer
. t housand feet perpendicular, expose to
view the fire-worn rocks of this one
time volcano. Spread below you lies a
natural panorama of the Cascade moun
tains from Mt. Hood north to Bt.
,; Helens and Adams 70 miles distant; to
the east the rugged Cascades merge
into the rolling bills and plains of East
ern Oregon and Washington until the
land blends into the distant blue of the
hky. The farms and grain fields of our
Utile valley, scattered in perspective
among the green woods, can be traced
along the winding canyons of Hood
river, as the waters of the melting gla
ciers seek the waves of the Columbia.
Saturday morning, with Mr. H. D.
Langille aa guide, the ascent of the
mountain was begun, the climbing
purly consisting of four persons besides
the guide. Two of the party rode on
horseback to the top of Cooper's Spur,
a distance of three miles from the Inn,
over the roughest though not the steep
est part of the trail. From Cooper's
Spur the ascent of the mouutain begins
iu earnest and the trail leads across the
great snow field on the north side of
I lie mountain in a direct line to the
! summit. Alpine stocks, spiked with
steel, are found to be of great help in
climbing for the next 2,000 feet, the
angle being about 45 degrees. The
guide leads the way and all follow by
stepping In the tracks he makes by dig-
' fling the toes of his heavy shoes Into
the snow. Looking neither to the
right nor the left but watching the
trail ahead for descending rocks, the
guide quietly ascended and the party
us quietly followed. Within 1,200 feet
of the top Is an inch rope,fastened near
the top to a large boulder. When this
' was reached the climbers, all but the
guide, laid aside their alpine stocks
and were tied together by the guide.
With the aid of the rope the party by
slow degrees climbed to within 600 feet
of the top, where we sidetracked on a
ledge of rocks and ate lunch. After 40
minutes rest the final effort was made
aud we gained the summit at 10 min
utes before. 2 o'clock p. m.; remained
on the top one hour and twenty min
utes. Reaching the summit is a feat any
one but a mountain climber used to the
hard and dangerous work would not
care to repeat often. The feeling that
you are nearly 12,000 feet from sea level
is one of intense awe. The view is
grand beyond description. The dense
smoke from the burning forests hid the
distant siirhts from view, but on an or
dinarily clear day the snow peaks of
itaiiuer, ei. Helens ana Adams to trie
north, and Jefferson, the Three Sisters,
Pitt aud Diamond peak to the south
loom up in the distance. Not only the
snow-capped peaks but the whole
topography of the state of Oregon, from
the waters of the Pacific to the Blue
mountains aud the lava beds of East
ern and Southeastern Oregon, and a
greater part of Washington come into
view.-
As the descent Is begun, and you
stand at the top and gaze down the
precipitous descent the sight is awful
to behold. To any one without a rope
, a misstep means a fall of thousands of
feet. At the bottom lies the broad
fields of Ice and snow of Eliot glacier,
with its great crevasses gaping hun
dreds of feet into the bottomless depths
of the earth. .
Holding to the rope and by slipping
and sliding we soon reached the lower
end of the cable where we again took
our alpine stocks. Here the guide or
dered us to sit down (we were still tied
together with the rope) toboggan fash
ion, wltn the alpine stocks braced un
der nur left arms. Though we had
nothing between us and the freezing
snow but the seat of our pants, we
placed our trust in Providence and the
guide aud reached camp in time for
supper,; ............
The slide down the mountain side is
something great well worth the labor
of climbing up. Killing space at trol
ley car- rate, and with a thousand foot
. precipice seemingly straight ahead of
you the coast down is excitingly ex
Lilerating. .
The ascent of Mt. Hood is frought
with not a little danger and plenty of
hard work, but it is something seldom
accomplished more than once iu a life
time and well pays anyone who makes
the trip. For a summer outing Cloud
Cap Is an ideal camping spot, and those
who wish livery accomodations can
And no more obliging gentlemen than
those of the Mountain Stage company.
- NOTES.
The camping party consisted of ye
editor and family and Mrs. E. E. Sav
age. From the bridge up we were ac
companied by Mr. H. S. Gullixson, an
employee of the O. R. & N. Co.'s office
at Portland, and who was in camp at
the bridge with the choir brTys of Trin
ity church. The party climbing the
mountain contained ye editor, Clara
Blythe, Ned Blythe. Mr. Gullixson
and Doug Langille the guide. Coming
home, Miss Dehm, book keeper for
Wolfard & Bone of Hood River, return
ed with us, after spending a couple of
days at the Inn and ascending the
mountain to the top of 'Cooper's spur.
Cloud Cap Inn is 28 miles distant
fiolu the O. R. A N. depot at Hood
River. The eleven miles of the road,
from the bridge over the East Fork to
the Inn is a pretty stiff urade, especial
ly the last live miles: but with a fotir-
i liorse team, well used to staging, the
i distance is covered iu a time equal to
j that- when
A slx-muled tcnm made plenty of steam
For the broadest kind or a gauge.
For six miles of this road just west of
the bridge, the country is com para t lve-

Here, within 8 miles of the snowline,
lies some of the best apple land In the
state. The codl in moth is never seen
in this section, and the fruit is of ex
cellent oualitv. P. F. Fouts and W.
N. Nason have young orchards just
coming into bearing that win pay wen
lii a tew years.
While on the way up a slop was
made at Dallas' sprlnsr, at the upper
end of the Elk Beds. The water of
this spring corned from the melting
snow of the mountains and Is ice cold
and clear as crystal. Mr. T. C. Dallas
has filed on a claim that takes iu this
spring and nine years ago built a sub
stantial two story log house, but about
four years ago his house with all its
contents was burned to the ground by
a tire started by some miscreant sheep
neroer. . , , ,
As the attractions of Cloud Cap Inn
as a summer resort become more wide
ly known each year; the travel to the
mountain increases, and tins year tne
Inn is doing an extensive business.
Mrs. Langille, who has charge of the
hotel,-has the reputation of setting a
first class table.- The Mountain Stage
Co. have arrangements with the O. R.
AN. Co. and meet tourists at the depot
and cary them in their easy-riding
stages direct to the Inn. -
The secretary of the interior has ap
pointed six forest superintendents at
$2,000 a year, eight forest supervisors
at $5 a day, and fifteen forest rangers
at $50 a month. : It is to be hoped they
will assume their duties at once and
look after the fires now raging in the
Cascade reserve. Several fires could be
seen from Cloud Cap Inn, last Satur
day, in the part of the reserve occupied
by sheep. . These fires should be in
vestigated and If it is found that they
originated from sheep camps, .inten
tionally or otherwise, the owners of
the camps responsible should forfeit
their right to pasture in the reserve, as
the rules and regulations decree. There
should be some way to prevent the
smoky season occurring in Oregon and
obscuring from view our snow-capped
mountains and other scenery, and we
believe that if the officials appointed to
look after the forest reserves do their
duty they will be able to put an end to
the smoke in future. If the sheep men
or others who needlessly fire the woods
need an object lesson the sooner it is
given tne better.
The Antelope Herald has changed
hands. Mr. M. E. Miller retires as ed

Wallace.
Letters from the Boys at the Front.
Dr. F. C. Brosius writes an interest
ing letter to his wife from the scene of
action in the Philipplues. The letter
was written on board the Australia, off
Cavite, Manila bay, June 80th, aud is
in part as follows. ; .
We have arrlvl I rose at 5 a. m. on
account of not being able to sleep from
the rolling and pitchinsr of the ship.
We had a very stormy time from about
noon yesterday until we entered Ma
nila bay at 2 p. m. today. - Just after
passing the point north of the island
at theentiance, by the maps, we sight
ed tnree uerman gunboats in a little
bay. Our 5 vessels were in single col
umn, and one of the Germans, a big
three furyiel boat, shot out after us and
trailed us into the bay. About 1 o'clock
as we were approaching the entrance.
a steamer was seen leaving the harbor
and we turned our prows toward ner,
but after a few minutes we changed
back on our course, it being decided
that the steamer was a, German dis
patch boat. Drobablv iroinir to Honir
Kong; if so, you will get the news of
our arrival in Saturday's morning pa
pers. I presume you have, been very
much worried at our continued absence.
We have been 88 days out of Frisco
mis evening, ana snouid have made
it in not over 28, less if we could have
come full speed straight across. But
all's well that ends well. We anchor
ed among the American warships at
op. m. and can count all the wrecks
of the Spanish fleet in sight. Another
Spanish gun boat surrendered yester
day. It was driven into the bay by
the insurgents. The latter are very
agressive, and a suburb of Manila was
on fire as we arrived, having been at-
tac-Kea and ournt by them today. The
city is about 7 miles to the northwest
or us and looks very large and pretty.
I understand It has over 300,000 inhab
itants. There are electric lights shin
ing from it tonight, just like San
Francisco or Portland would' look. Off
to the north of us several miles, is an
chored the fleet of foreign war. vessels.
I understand there are 8 German, 7
English, 3 French and several others.
It looks very much like war. Our dis
patch bout leaves tomorrow at 4 o'clock
for Hong Kong with our letters. Say,
subscribe for Harper's Weekly and
save them. We have a correspondent
for it on board, Davis by name, who is
taking pictures for it. One was taken
of our surgical operation,. June 20th.
5 of our hospital corps boys will
be let out tomorrow, and 10 added to
make up a new corps. Im sorry for
the boys let out, but It Is their own
fault My boys are the best of the lot.
and of course will stay. 2 Portland
and 3 Albany boys go.
Clarence English, of Co. E, writes
from Manila harbor to his mot her, Mrs.
Geo. P. Crowell. He tells of the rous
ing demonstration given the boys as
they left Honolulu harbor, and gives a
vivid description of the capture of the
Ladrone islands, June 20th.
When the Charleston entered the
bay she fired oh Fort San de Cruze.
After firing about 13 shots she quit, as
the fort was apparently unoccupied.
The health officer and captain or the
fort and another man, a native, who
was born on the island but educated at
Chicago and a naturalized American
citizen, came out in a small boat and
asked Capt. Glass to see his health re
port, but he told them to come on
board. They did not care to do so, but
as he insisted they came, and Capt.
Glass pumped them about their soldiers
finding out that they had 54 Spanish
aud 54 native soldiers, and that the
governor of the island was back at the
capitol city, 4 miles back. The palace
is called Aguna (pronounced Aganza).
They did not know Capt. Glass had
beeu firing at the fort thought it was
a salute, and said they were sorry they
could not return the salute sooner, but
were having some cannon loaded and
would fire a salute upon returning to
shore. Whereupon Capt. Giats told
them he had fired no salute, lut as the
United States aud Spaiii wete-at war
he had fired on the fort as he came in,
and that they were prisoners of war.
They threw up tbelr bands in aston
ishment and said that they did not
know that war bad been declared.
They bad faces as long as your arm on
them when they beard that. Capt.
Glass told them lie would parole them
long enough for them to go ashore and
tell the governor to come on board at
once. You see these islands are not iu
the course that ships take and do not
get news for six- months sometimes.
Capt. Glass paroled them and told
them to send out a pilot and a bout
with the governor at 4 p. m. : The pi
lot came out at 9, : but said the govern
or was forbidden to go aboard a foreign
man-of-war by the Spanish govern
ment, but would make arrangements
to see the captain ashore the next
morning at 9 a. m. Iu the morning a
lieutenant aud 4 marines Went ashore
armed to the teeth and met the gov
ernor. They gave the governor just 30
minutes to surrender unconditionally.
He protested some, but as we were
sending 5 boat loads of our boys and
marines ashore and 8 more boats were
loading at the time, he went In and
wrote it in just 29 minutes. It was de
livered to tne lieutenant and when the
lieutenant got it he told the governor
to write an order for all of his soldiers
and their arms aud amuhitlon, to be
brought to the wharf by 4 p. m. He
kicked some, but as he had surrendered
unconditionally he had to do it. He
was then taken aboard the Charleston
and at 4 p. m. the lieutenant went a
s ho re again with 40 marines and found
the 54 Spanish aud 54 natives lined up
with their guns. They had their aru
uuition all stacked up on the wharf be
hind them. - The lieutenant made
them come up one at a time and hand
their guns to a sailor, who put them in
a small boat; and when they were all
disarmed lie took the ammunition and
4 flags and put them into the small
boat, and the Bailor took it out in the
bay out of their reach. He then told
them they were prisoners of war aud
took the b words from the officers and
turned the native soldiers free. They
at once tore the Spanish buttons off
their couts and threw them away, and
seemed to be delighted to be free from
the Spaniards. The lieutenant brought
the 64 Spaniards out and put them aud
their olticers on the Sydney. They
had 64 Mauser rifles and 7500 cartridges
for them. The native soldiers were
armed with Remington ' rifles aud hud
11,000 cartridges. Our boys did not go
ashore. When they saw the governor
coming nut they turned around and
came back. I did not get ashore on the
island at all. It was a beauty, like all
these Islands. - We could see the big
cocoaiiut trees all around, aud the na
tives brought out lots of fruit.
We left the old native chief in charge
of the island and the American, whom,.
I spoke of, as his advisor. The Amer
icanized native said there would be no
trouble, as ther natives are a very quiet
and religious people.' They were lorj
ribly treated by the Spanish, and jump
ed up and down with delight when
they found they were free. , Some
could speak a little English The
Spanish taxed them 25c a bead for
every pig they killed: 75c for a buffalo;
for every child born, $6; for .every death
$11; $1.60 a year poll lax for every man,
woman and child, and 25c church tax
a month.
Maltie Dukes, a member of the hos
pital corps of the Oregon regiment, in
a letter to his mother gives au interest
ing account of soldiering tor Uncle
Sam on the other side of the Pacific.
. Every day at noon and every night
at mld-uigbt since we left Camp Mc
Kinley I have been on guard at the
hospital or the dyspensary, four hours
at a clip; but I'm getting used to it now
and don't mind it. I think perhaps it
will cure me of lying In bed of a morn
ing when I get back to "Oregon, sweet
Oregon." I suppose you will
be anxious to know something about
the climate. The 15 hours that 1 have
seen of it is nothing to be dreaded it
is but precious little warmer than at
Hood River. As nearly as 1 can find
out the mail will, leave here about ev
ery ten days, but 'of course that is only
hearsay. They say a soldier is not sup
posed to know anything and the most
of them fill the bill. We are
anchored about midway of the' harbor,
on one side is Cavite, on the other is
Manila. Manila' is a city about the
size of Frisco, with her electric lights
sparkling along the waterfront. -But
how insignificant they look when the
Olyuipia throws her searcb-ilghis over
the city. The cruisers keep their
search-lights flying over the harbor all
the time to protect themselves from ;
torpedo boats You should see the lads (

and had a confab.with Oen. Anderson

only in a very light form, leaving no
pox marks. 1 helped vaccinate uuu
