We are able to report that Bert is much improved and expects to be out again in a few days. !The Hood River cornet band, under the leadership of Prof. Cubberlv, is making good progress. The band dc erves well of our citizens and it should 1 meet with every encouragement in our I power to give. - Sam C. Smith and family started on I Monday for their new home at Dallas, f Polk county, where they will engage in the' hotel business. The best wishes of their many Hood River friends go ith I them. I L. D. Blount writes from Parsons, J Kansas, where he is visiting a daughter. I He is learning type writing and how to I make butter on a dairy ranch. He is having a good time, and expects to ro- turn to Oregon in April next. I M. Lindsay, living on Indian creek, 1 presented his four-year-old boy an ax tor Christmas. Monday latt, while playing with an older sister, the boy managed to cut her hand, nearly sever ing two fingers. Ziba Dimmick cf Walla Walla and Joe Dimmicic of The Dalles came to their home at Mt. Hood last Saturday. This f is the first time all the children of the I family have been together for 13 years, ana oi course tiiey are having a joytui time at their reunion. Hervey M. Cook died at his home in Portland. Jan. 4, 1900. aaed 21 years. 11 months and 10 days. Deceased was well known in Hood River, where he re- i sided with his parents, Air. and Mrs. I C. M. Cook, for about two years. The I afflicted family have the sympathy of I their old neighbors in Hood Kiver in their bereavement. I A. I. Mason came up from Portland I last week and spent several days on his S ranch on the East Side. He returned to 1 Portland Monday evening. Mr. Mason i is a convert to the 20th century theory I and labored for half an hour with the i editor, trying to convince him he was i not living in the 19th. But we are still with the "mossbacks" of the 19th ' century. C. B. Datson, civil engineer with the f O. R. & N. Co., went to Portland Mon f day. Mr. Datson has been engaged 'i guarding the Holmes Ice Go's, flume h passing under the railroad bridge while I the rest of the engineer corps preceded i bim to Portland. Water has been i turned out of the flume, the ice com I pany giving up hopes of freezing weather o ma kb K$.l!r i Joe Wilson returned from his trip to Pennsylvania last Thursday. He went bv the great Northern route and return- ed by the Southern f aoinc. He tound f business good in the East. At Altoona, Pa., on the Pennsylvania Central lines, 1 1 HO. 000 freight cars cans everv month. f In Washington City he saw Ben Davis : i n!j.r 1 1 1 : u ttuu xhuuwiii uuuibb selling iui tiic anuic 4 price fa.50 a barrel. a., r. jtt, one oi tiic ixminiiBKiuiiern T r - t iL t ! of Sherman county, with his little six-year-old daughter, is visiting his brother- in-law, P. Spangler and wife, Mr. Orr reports two cases of small-pox in and near Wasco. The physicians of Wasco pronounce the disease the same as that affecting the Quarantined people of Moro. Mrs. Orr has recovered from the injuries she received by being thrown from a carriage in Hood River last sum- pier. A hall suitable for entertainments is something badly needed in this town The armory building, though a little out of the way, would be all right if it was put in shape to make it comfortable for an audience. The building would be much better if it was cut down by tak ing out the lower story. The entrance could then be made from River street and be much more convenient than the steps to the entrance as it is at present We need a hall, and it is time a move was made to get it. At the Frankton literary, last Friday evening, the Question debated was, "Re solved, That woman should have the right of suffrage." The question was decided in the affirmative. . Those tak ing part in the debate were: Walter Hull, Howard Isenberg, Will Sabin and Walter Gerking for the affirmative; Mrs. J. E. Dishman, S. C. Sherrill, Mell Foley and Roy Ellis for the negative. The judges were Miss Margaret Locke, Ralph Savage and Jos. Frazier. The house was crowded. Last week the Glacier copied from The Dalles papers an item to the effect that Hans F. Jochimsen and Louisa C, 6. Rordan had procured a marriage license. This couple were married Dec. 21, 1898. How The Dalles papers hap pened to be so enterprising as to as early as last week print the fact of their procuring a license is a mvsterv. We thought the names of the matrimonial candidates had a familiar sound, but not to be behind in giving the news, the Glacier also printed it. We heard from the item many times. Sherman county is undergoing a siege of disease called Fillipino itch. At Moro many houses are quarantined on ac count of the disease. By some it is claimed to be small-pox. At Wasco a real case of small-pox is reported. This" Fillipino itch will likely make its ap pearance in Hood River, if it is not al ready here. Warren Miller's children, at Frankton, are sick with some kind of breaking out. The Fillipino itch begins like la grippe, with fever, and eruptions appear on the body. With cleanliness, bathing often and proper care of the digestive organs, the disease is not dangerous and soon runs its course. E. C. Rogers returned from bis claim on upper heal creek last week. While there he shingled his house. The weather was fine. Davenport Bros, in tend to put in a saw mill m this settle ment in the spring. Messrs. Baker & Vanderpool of Dufur have located a mill site and will put in a mill if no one gets there before them. Mr. Rogers is doing all he can to get the road leading from this new settlement to Hood River im proved, so that the trade will come to Hood River instead nf anina tn Mofiief. Nearly f 100 has been sn been bed towards the road, and the company that puts in a saw mill is expected to give 50. If the county court grants as much as is donated the prospect for getting a good wad to this new and growing settle- Bent will be good. The new council met Tuesday evening. Mavor-elect was too ill to attend, being sick with a bad cold. Councilmen Bell, Blowers, Davidson, Luckey and Mc Donald were sworn in by Recorder Nick elsen ; J. II. Dukes being the only hold over. Dukes was elected mayor pro tern. Bills were allowed as follows : Sun. printing ordinance, 2.75; Glacier, print ing, ordinance, $2.75 ; E. S. Olinger, arrests, $3,20; recorder's fees for trials, ld.00. Blowers reported an ordi nance amending ordinance 19 in regard to fines (section 7) for infractions of the ordinance, making the fine not less than fza nor more than 50, and imprison ment not less than 10 nor more than 20 days. The county court has made a new pre cinct, dividing West Hood River pre cinct on the township line at W. J. mont. The new precinct will be known as Barrett. The division of West Hood River is made necessary by tho new law requiring road supervisors to be elected bv the iicotilH. Knad district 20. in town of Hood River, is thrown out, and the Last and est Hood Kiver supervisors will have supervision over Die town streets. If the town of Hood River had been made into a voting precinct and road district by itself it would have been more satisfactory to the town. The Hood River cornet band will give a concert at A. O. U. W. hall next Sat urday evening, Jan. 13th. Dramatic performance by local talent will also be given. Every attention is being given to this entertainment? make it a suc cess, and as it is in Cha.' the mem bers of the Band, its sucei , ' assured.

J t lvublcrly says Hood River hass6i?.e flue musical talent that only needs practice to make a band we will all be proud of. Mrs. Gee returned home from Falls City to spend New Year's with her fam ily, but a telephone came asking that she lose no time in returning to Falls City, where she has been for the past five months taking care of J. D. Will iams who was taken sick at the Com mercial house last summer. She left on the evening train, hoping to arrive at Falls City next day. The New Year's Oregonian was a great paper. Its descriptions of the state and the Northwest show rapid strides in the development of this part ot our country. Hood Kiver contained a good write up by Hon. E. L. Smith, which we copy in this week's Glacier, including the picture of our school house. A. Lauterback of White Salmon was in town Tuesday in view of securing the services of Miss" Ida Foss as principal of the school at that place. Miss Foss declined, and a young man, who is a graduate of an Eastern college, and is at present working for the Lost Lake Lum ber Co., accepted the oner. Rev. J.W. Jenkins returned last week from a three-months visit in the East. He visited his mother, who is e(i years of age, living in Michigan. In Ohio he experienced zero weather, and while coming through the Dakotas on his way home the mercury was down to 20 below. The U. B. Christian Endeavor society will hold their monthly business meet- ing at me resilience ui a. cj. xiiriuieB, Friday tvjning at 7:30 o'clock. All members are requested to be present. Dr. Brosius was laid up with a severe cold Tuesday. Geo. P. Crowell has an attack of the crip. W. H. Perry was sick last week, threatened with pnue monia, but is better again. Those who wish to contract for grow- ing tomatoes for the cannery should call before January 20th, so arrangements can be made for raising the plants. Davidson Fruit Co. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Allard have received from Dufur a tiuy envelope containing a card reading as follows: "Muriel Aldine Allard sends greetings, Jan. 6, 19009 pounds." Dried Fruit We have a full line of dried prunes and evaporated pears peaches and apricots, bought right and will be sold right. A. S. Blowers & Son. A. A.

The death of Dr. Barrett, Sunday, Jan. 7, 1900, which shocked the entire community, was the cause of heartrend ing scenes when the great loss was made known to the bereaved wife and grandchildren. Ho had gone to the barn to do the evening chores, and not returning as Boon as usual, Mrs. Barrett requested Miss Clara Hinrichs to see what detained him. the lound him in a sitting position by the barn, and know ing Mrs. Barrett's weakness, immediate ly ran to B. F. Shoemaker's. Mrs. Shoe maker sent for her husband and J. H. Shoemaker and started with Miss Hin richs for Dr. Barrett's. Mrs. Shoemaker tried, by changing the position of the doctor, to see if there was any hope of recuscitation. ii. t. and J. H. Shoe maker were soon assisting, and being satisfied that life was extinct, tried to persuade Mrs. Shoemaker to go to the house and inform Mrs. Barrett, a task from which she shrank, realizing how completely Mrs. Barrett relied on the doctor and her devotion to him. The two little grandchildren, twin bovs. who had come upon the scene, precipitated. matters Dy going to tno house, out Air. Shoemaker went with them and then returned to the body with Mrs. Barrett. Her distress and that of the children was pitiable. Dr. Brosius, who was sent for in haste, gave the stricken wife the comforting assurance that death had been painless, and that he had not been dead many minutes before he was found. The doctor's business affairs had been arranged in anticipation of such a sud den end, but the people of the valley were entirely unprepared tor their irre parable loss. East Hood River. Chester Sears is down from Baker City on a two weeks vacation. He has a good situation with a business firm in that city and no doubt will soon be counted among the solid citizens ot the place. Social gatherings which were largely attended during the week were held at the homes of Wm. Sears and John Crosbv. East Side farmers are expansionists almost to a man. Uwing to the tine weather for outdoor work many acres of new land will be made ready tor the plow before spring. Those whose work is assuming noticeable proportions are J. K. Powell, John Schaetzle, Wm. Ken nedy, H. Lage and Harbison Bros, These clearings will vary in size from 5 to zu acres, we also learn that Hon. M. A. Moody has six men at work opening up new land. Others have laid off small tracts and are busily engaged thereon. Farmers feel encouraged over the pros- pect that the irrigating ditch will be completed during the coming summer. Dry farming and horticulture is as profitably carried on here as envwhere in the West, but a plentiful supply of water will make dairying and small fruits much more paying than now. We recently saw a high-grade Hera ford calf ten months old, owned by P. Kopke, which was about twice the bulk of ordinary scrub calves the same age, and an obiect lesson in good breeding. Cattle of inferior breeds have caused a loss of thousands of dollars to Hood River farmers and stockmen, ard now that the range is narrowing down it becomes doubly important that both butcher and milk stock should be greatly improved. Leonard Dodson, who has been work-; ing in a saw mill at Salem for the past two years, is visiting his parents in Dukes valley. N. J. Devoid of Baldwin precinct is spending the week in Portland on busi ness. John Roberts started for Corvallis last Friday, to resume his studies at the Agricultural college. Mrs. Troy Shelley has just returned from a three weeks visit in Portland and The Dalles.
