White Salmon Items. Mr. Cliile moved this week to the place lately purchased from F. Gro ?hon(. Mr and Mrs. Art. Ward went to Port land on Monday. Mm. Ward will un dergo a surgical operation while in the city. The g ade leading to the wharf is now undergoing repairs; it having been do clared unsafe for heavy teams. So the wood hauling is at a standstill. Borne genius, hitherto unknown to the citizens of our village, has evolved from his fertile brain a new punishment. One of the young ladies who was absent from the meeting of the dancing club last Friday night, found a bunch of crape tied to the front gate on Saturday morning. We only guess at the intent of the notice. F. Groshong moved into the Fine house, on Tuesday of this week. Mien Cora Cameron, teacher of the Bingen school, met with a slight acci dent while driving down the hill from White Salmon to Bingen last Friday morning. When on the steepest part of the hill the harness gave way and the horse began kicking. She jumped from the buggy and was Bomewhat bruised about the face. Friends came to her rescue aud assisted her home, and she expects to be able to resume her school work shortly. Cropper ('ropping's. Snow lias been falling iff and on for two weeks, and still it snows. There is about bIx inches of snow on the ground at present, and about six inches of mud under that; consequently we hear no sleigh bells singing yet. A. T. Dodge was seen one day the first of the week with his horse and sleigh out hunting for a piece of road solid enough to sleigh ride on, but the fur ther he went the deeper he got in the mud. He finally gave it up as a bad job and put his sleigh under the shed. H. E. Blocher is home again and making improvements on his place, in the way of building sheds, walks, etc. A. T. Dodge and James Carnahan have taken a contract to clear 11 acres of land on the Jones place and will be gin work as soon as the weather permits. There will be a good many acres of land cleared around here as soon as the snow goes off, but clearing is out of the ques tion at present, the snow and ice stick ing to the trees and brunli making it al ijios t impossible to do anything in the timber now. Job. Hot Stuff. From the Portland JonrnHl'sTabasco column. Greece and Persia fell out 491 years B. C, when Darias sent ambassadors de manding earth and water as symbols of submission. Since that time no Persian ambassador has been sent to Greece. Now diplomatic relations are alxnit to be resumed after a lapse of 2,393 years. This teaches us that with a little for bearance the worst of quarrels may finally be patched up. In consequence of the fifth eruption of LaSoufriere.Chateau Belaireand George town, the two principal towns, have been evacuated. That the inhabitants returned after the fourth eruption, illus trates the indomitable courage of man kind and explains why some married men have the courage to go home. F.dgar Paltus wants to know, we sup pose, for he asks, "Would you bo sorry to die?" So much depends on future conditions that well, we know some people we think will be sorry when they die. Verestchagin got $18,000 for his pict ure showing Roosevelt and his rouh riders charging at San Juau hill, but in commenting on the prce just think the painter had to write that name in one corner. The strike of the Havana cigar makers does not interfere with the majority of Havana cigars. Some of them are made with a Bcappoose wrapper and a Green Bay tiller.

Mr. Nickelsen's many JriPiulu here will be pleased to learn that the sensation has ended. It would seem that the reports concerning Mr. Nickel nen's actions were greatly magnified. Mountaineer. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. Jones and their little son arrived home Friday evening from their Fortland visit which they extended a? far as Hood River. Mr. Jones was verv favorably impressed with the fruit" industry, and brought home a number of samples of apples, which certainly rank above the famous Yamhill red apples. Land values in the fruit section are phenomenally high, $,-00 and W0 per acre being nothing un Land set to strawberries brings cash rental of 110 an acre, and the renter usually receives t'.K) an acre for his crop. Yamhill Reporter. Evidently Mr. Jones failed to acquire reliable information regarding the value of Howl River fruit lands. Prices of good fruit lands range from f 100 to IO0 per acre, according to location and whether now producing fruit or not. We know of none for sale that are belli above the latter figure. As to rentals of land set to strawberries, every acre of good thriftv strawberry plants in the valley will "readily command a cash ren tal of 40 per acre, and will pay the renter from 100 to flttO an acre clear of all expenses outside his own labor. Tlie woman whose husband giHs to praver meeting with her, has something to lie proud enough of to take to the wry front teat. Yamhill Reporter. Mr. and Mrs. Mr. W) man's. Davis are visiting at Odell Kotes. December 10, 1902. By authority from the postal depart ment, Sherman Young, the carrier, ser ved notice on the residents of Odell last Monday that unless the road connecting the East and West side roads south of here was fixed in a few days, our splen did mail service would be cut off. This is as it should be. The government is not required to .furnish mail over al most impassable roads when there is no good excuse for their being in such con dition. This should prove a lesson that ought to be remembered. Wherever the surface water is drained off there are no bad roads, and to do this requires little work if done at the proper time. Road supervisors should be required to give bonds, and held responsible for such condition of roads as now exist. Ross Winans was down at the little white store on Monday. He is sanguine concerning the future of this country, and says when the magnificent water power of the falls Is harnessed by elec tricity, a railroad up the river will be possible, and the country along the line will he revolutionized in a manner that will surprise the most sanguine old resi dents. The large timber deal that Mr. Winans put through this year is a pointer that non-residents understand the situation. It requires no prophetic finger to point out a brilliant future for this section. A lady's jacket was recently found in the road near the Tucker bridge It can be had by inquiring of Theodore Smith. The saw mill at Tucker's has closed down for the winter. A very good entertainment was given at the school house last night by ('lias. A. Carson of the Washington volun teers, showing pictures of the Philip pine Islands. A Deserved Tribute. Salem Journal. Rev. W. O. Eliot, jr., who has so acceptably filled the pulpit of the Uui- tariau church in im city tor the past two years, has been compelled to re sign that positiou owing to the pres sure of denominational work in differ ent points of the state and Northwest. Mr. Knot, under the auspices ot the American Unitarian Association, has been active since March last as a super intendent of field work in the Pacific Northwest. The hitter department of his work has now developed to such proportion to where he feels it impossi ble to do justice to the local work. For this reason he has resigned the care of the parish in Salem, in order to devote himself solely to the iieia work, lie expects to continue bis headquarters til sulem tor a lew months. At an au- journed meeting of the First Uuilarian society, held lust evening, Mr. Eliot's resignation was accepted and itev. t rank A. rowen called to succeed Dim to take charge December 1. A resolution was ottered and spread upon the minutes tendering Mr. Eliot the society's appreciation of his labors among them aud expressing profound regret that circumstuuces maae neces sary bis withdrawal. During Ms two years incumbency Mr. Kliot had endeared himself in the hearts of his congregation, by his lofty character and gracious personality, and his high culture, as well as schol arly attainments have marked him as one of the ablest divines in the city. In his work as field superintendent Mr. Eliot has built up the Unitarian move ment in Oregon with gratifying suc cess, and church organizations Bre likely to grow out or ins citorts at Al bany, Hood River and Corvallis.

It won't. Neither did we quit because we were making more money than we knew what to do with. We simply tried and failed. The Sen tinel has grown weaker almost hourly since its birth; iu fact, we have some times thought its birth was premature by several years. We have given it copious doses of patent medicine ads., si'ch as colic, cholera, diarrhea remedy, electric bitters, Bucklln's file salve, cancarets, catarrh remedy, no-to-bac, and a dozen different kinds of pills, but all to no avail. Its circulatory system was all out of whack, and we were un able to get it in whack. We have stood by it through thick and thlnj we have hoped great things for it; we have scratched for it like a mother hen scratcheth for her only chick. We have worn so many patches on our breeches that we could hardly tell which was patch and which was breeches. And we don't propose to do it any more. But we are not going to kick about the people. The town and surrounding community is full of good people. Koine of them have given us much advice about how to run a paper, and we do not doubt that it was well Intended. We believe it came from the bottom of their hearts. Perhaps it would have been better had we follow ed some of this advice. True, we would have come to grief sooner, but the agony would have been sooner over, too. . We are sorry to hang up In this fash Ion, but running a newsMiper for glory Is a mighty poor job, and we long for a full stomach once more. If any other fool ever starts a paper here we will, as the old Scotchman once said, 'admire his pluck, but dora his judgment.' " The Glacier Buggy.

Subscribers iu arrears who pay up will get a ticket for each 11.50 paid, as well as those who pay in advance. A number under 1000 has beeu written on a card, sealed in an envelope and placed In Butler & Go's bank in Hood River. Every precaution was taken to keep the number In the bank a secret. No one knows the luckey number. A dozen cards were taken, numbers under 1000 written upon each; the cards were then shuffled, one picked up at random and placed in the envelope, sealed up, and the bal ance thrown immediately into the fire. The number upon none of the cards were seen except by the person writing them. Every Subscriber Has a Chance To get this handsome vehicle. If the subscriber is iu arrears he can pay up and get tickets entitling him to a chance. All subscribers who paid as much as $1.50 during this mouth of November will get tickets. . The tickets given to subscribers are all in sealed envelopes, sealed up by the printer, and no one will know his number until he opens the envelope. When the tickets are all given out, the subscriber holding the number corresponding with the number in the bank will take the buggy. Subscribers should preserve their tickets. The proprietor of the Glacier has always aimed to send out a good local paper, worth the price of subscription. He is grateful for past patronage and a big list of subscribers. The paper will not deteri orate in usefulness, and subscribers who fail to get the buggy will get value received for their money in a good local paper. The buggy cau now be seen in the big red barn of the Hood River Trading Co.
