Saloon Burglary.
Bin Fonts' saloon was entered after
closing hours, Monduy night, and
roblad of f()5 or f 70. Suspicion rested
upon Charles Harris, who was placed
under arrest by Constable dinger.
Sam Locke, the night man. closed up
shortly after 11210 and retired to the
office rooms adjoining, Between that
hour and 5 :.'!( the next morning en
trance wiiselt'ected through a rear win
dow and the cash register and a side
till were emptied of their money, about
$70. Immediately upon the discovery
of the robbery ('unstable Olinger was
notified and a search was made of the
premises. A vest of Harris' found ul
the rear of the building was evidence
enough to justify hunting uptheowner.
Harris was aroused from his room in
the Commercial house, and when ques
tioned concerning his whereabouts for
the few hours previous could give a
very unsatisfactory account of himself.
The evidence against Harris is rather
damaging, and conviction would mean
a couple of years in the penite-itiary.
Expect Plenty of Water Sext Year.
The Hood River Water Supply com
pany are making improvements in their
ditch which will considerably increase
the water supply for next season. At
present the company have a corps of
surveyors in the field making a perma
nent survey and setting stakes for a new
ditch between Dead Point and Ditch
creek. When this is completed, which
will be before next berry season, the
company Will be prepared to meet all
demands for irrigating water for use on
lands above the line of ditch of the Val
ley Improvement company. The com
pany are supplying about 300 inches
this summer and hope to double this
amount by next year.
Odcll, Aug. 22, 1102. All Icecream
festival was held on Wednesday even
ing, the 2(Jth, on the clover luwn of
C. A. Wyman, where, under the mel
low rays of the moon, old and young
passed a right merry time until the wee
small hours.
The Waucoma Manufacturing com
pany, through its representative, Mr.
Gr:i!i:im, have made arrangements to
lean' ground owned by Charley Davis,
one mde south of Odell, to erect a saw
mill, and in a few days the hum of the
saw will be heard, and in ermeo,uence
the timber adjacent will soon be in de
mand. Odell Is in the henrt of Kat Hood
River valley, with a store, church and
school house and 51 houses within a
radius of 1' miles and 70 In 3 miles.
One year ago people were saying
property was too high, yet in many
cases the price has doubled in one year.
History repeats Itself. Another year
will tell the same story. And live
years will astonish' the most sanguine
old-timer.
The white store building under the
pines is a thing of beauty. Flour and

Fruitgrowers are prearing to har

a good crop.
C. E. Markham took a gang of men,
of whom he is foreman, up in the
mountains last week to survey out a
line for the new ditch which the Hood
River Water Supply company contem

List week A. W. King threshed out
by hand about 100 pounds of orchard
grass seed. This amount was raised on
about a quarter of an acre of ground.
The seed retails for 15 cents a pound.
Mr. King intends to. sow 25 or 30 acres
of orchard grass in bis pasture, as it
grows and makes a good crop without
irrigation, while stock seem to eat ft as
readily as timothy or clover. Perhaps
it would be a good idea fr others who
have pasture or wild land to experi
ment on this line and have good past
ille for stork all summer, instead of
turning Ibeir stock into the road.

Thinks White .Salmon All Right.
Oregon Daily Journal.
(). T. Purser of White Salmon Is in
the city to interest people here in the
project of acquirinx timber lauds in
that section ot the country. He says
that all the lst claims are going rap
Idly and uill soon be taken up.
Mr. PurwrowiiK l'0 acres of grazing
land near White Suluion slid also a line
fruit farm. Speakieg of the country,
generally, he says:
"A huge irrigation canal is now be
ing eonsiructed t the farmers in my
neighborhood, which, wiirti completed,
wiil mean a great ileal to Umt section.
It will tap (toat creek near the source
and will !' 2) nulis in length, capable
of irrigating a large slope of country
six miles wide on cither sale. 'I his
large ares has hitherto Ufii iiolhiun
tut giaziug lands, but shortly every
T j
foot of It will be under cultivation.
When watered, two crops of clover and
timothy can easily be harvested each
season.
"There la a considerable rush now on
for timber claims. As fine yellow ptne
and fir can be found there as at any
other point In the United States. Each
claim will produce from 2,000,000 to 3..
000,000 feet per acre. Home of the
claims are on unsurveyed land, and a
petition is being forwarded to Wash
ington to have it surveyed.
"Speaking of fruit! White Salmon
can beat the famous Hood River to
death on that proposition."
Two Handsome Hood River Dwellings.
Truman Butler and S. H. Cox are
adding two fine residences to Hood
River's list of substantial dwelling
houses, . luesdav, contractor Cox tooa
- T mau
J!!!1B M-ronstruction, nd
nitiht M Sain .lir&t -these bHtktonwa-ara
two'as'wejl arranged and constructed
homes as ' anyone would desire. The
designing for Mr. Butler's house was
done by C. J. Crandall, The Dalles
architect. "Mr. Crandall also assisted
Mr. Cox in the design for his house. 1
The house being put up bv 8. H. Cox
is a three story, $5000 building, 42x32
feet in extent The third floor will con
tain five commodious bed chambers, a
bath room and modern closet. On the
second floor will be the front and back
parlors, a sitting room and library or
office room. In the basement or first
floor, the walls of which are of brick,
will be located the kitchen, dining room
and pantry, furnace room and laundry.
Mr. Cox will put in a power washing ma
chine to be operated by a water motor.
The whole of the basement will have a ce
ment floor. The dining room and kitchen
are two of the best rooms in the house.
They both face the west and one whole
side of the dining room is lighted by
two 5x5 windows. Mr.Cox's house is on
the north side of Oak street, opposite
J. R. Nickelsen's residence. The house
will face the south, and will have porches
for both floors extending the full length
of the house at both front and rear.
The view from the north porches is
splendid, commanding a stretch of the
Columbia river for six miles or more.
The summit of Mount Adams is also in
view. The handy arrangement of every
thing in Mr. Cox's house is almost
ideal, and when completed, about the
first of the vear, it will be the most
comfortable home in Hood River.
Truman Butler's house on the south
side of State street, opposite the resi
dence of Captain A. S. Blowers, will
cost between $.1000 and $3500, and will
probably be completed by November.
Everything about the place was planned
with a view to comfort and convenience,
and it all presents a most homelike and
cozy appearance. The first floor con
tains an entrance hall and stairway,
9x14 feet, a parlor, living room, dining
room, library and kitchen. Upstairs
there are four well-arranged bed rooms
with bath room and toilet. The closet
arrangements for each bed room are
very neat. In the basement will be
located the furnace and wash trays. A
colonial porch extends full length of the
front facing State street. Large windows
will make the rooms of the main floor
light and airy. The sliding doors are
so arranged that four of the main rooms
may readily be thrown into one, with
only a pillar separating them.
Both these dwellings will add much
to Hood River's already handsome resi
dence section, while they would be a
credit to any city many times the size
of our town.
Proposed Wagon Road Up Hood River.
A company has been incorporated for
the purpose of building a wagon road
from town along the banks of Hood
river to the upper part of the valley.
The incorporators are P. F. Friday, F.B.
Barnes, I. C. Brosius and C. A. Bell.
The proposition is still open to any one
wanting to purchase stock in the same.
The corporation is to be known as the
Hood River Road company, the said
company to have the rights and author
ities for "buying, owning, holding, im
proving, leasing and selling of real es
Btate, the construction of roads, toll
roads and highways, and to do all things
necessary for the construction of wagon
roads."
P. F. Friday, the instigator ot the
project, asserts that he "will push the
road to completion if it bests the boiler,"
and says further that he has quit talk
ing and proposes now to go to work.
Mr. Friday, while a resident of Tacoma
14 years ago, secured a bridge for that
city after the same manner in which he
is going after this road. He is very en
thusiastic over the matter and is a firm
believer in the feasibility of the scheme.
If things move rightly the company ex
pects to begin turning earth before snow'
flies.
The proposed scheme is the building
of a wagon road with a railroad grade
from the east end of Oak street up the
west side of Hood river, to cross the
river at some convenient point, and to
extend on the east side to about Hans
Lage's place. This means that the road
will have an even steady grade, rising
gradually from town to the terminus in
the upper valley. There will be no up
hill and then down hill about it as there
is with the present Fast Side grade.
The property of the company will con
sist in full ownership of the right
of way, and when the time
comes for an electric line up the valley,
the company putting it in will pay the
Hood River Road company for use of'
their grade and right of way.
Christian Tabernacle.
The Christian church is having lum
ber hauled Unsweek, and next Tuisday,
September 2, they will erect a taber
nacle 32x48 feet on their lot east of Ab
bott's store on the hill above town. The
tabernacle, which will seat about 400
people, i. not designed to lie a perma
nent building, but will serve to hold
meetings in until the church is pre
pared to erect a substantial house of
worship which will worthily represent
the cause and be a credit to our growing
town.
L. D. Boyed will superintend the work
on Tuesday and will be aided bv a host
of workers. The Ladies' Aid Society of
tne t aney innstian church and their
friends, will serve dinner for the work
men on the grounds. Rev. Jenkins is
confident that the work will be done in
a day, and extends a general invitation
to the public to attend the services in
the new tabernacle in the evening. The
singing w ill lie in charge of J. Emmel.
and the songs wilt be thrown on a large
screen with a stereopticon. The ser
vices, which will continue each evening
during the week, will begin at 8 o'clock.
Killed a Monster Cougar.
James Cooper, of Mount Hood, cap
tured a large cougar, Tuesday evening,
the bide of which measured 8 feet from
tip to tip. The cougar was caught on
Ooat creek aliout five mile west of the
Mount Hood post office. It had been
troubling Mr. Cooper's sheep for several
days, and was killed by Mr. Cooper
poisoning the carcass of a sheep. The
claws of (he animal are three inches in
length. The hide will probably be pre
served, and will be a most valuable
trophy.

the farmers grow corn and oats, which
they convert into fattened beef cattle,
secured from the western ranges. . A

putting in a road, by means of which

S. C. Jackson, ' while working at Car
son, Wash., last week, accidentally
swallowed a couple of carpet tacks. He
coughed up one of them, but the other
worked its way to his lungs and may
prove a serious matter. Mr. Jackson
had gone to St. Martin's springs, where
the medicinal waters cured him of his
stomach trouules, and he was able to
take up work papering the Olmstead
hotel at Carson. While at work with
his mouth full of tacks he threw his
