Just where the line will be located or when it will be In opera tion are questions not yet answered, but Frank Davenport, president of the Valley Improvement company, tells the Kim-ior h is already arranging to build a dam at the fulls of Hood river for the purpose of generating electric power. This work will begin iu a couple of months. George W. Simons, of the Columbia River and Northern railway company, and Charles F. Bwigort, manager of the Columbia Southern and a director in the Columbia River Northern, are among the Portland men interested in the tnlked-of electric road up Hood River valley. These men were in Hood Kiver Sunday and Monday, and it is understood made overtures to several ,..rmnmnnies. the Mount Defiance rufnuilllT tO Hell. - ii. 11 mi n nnestioneu air. bi VI 1 1 1 1 I' . ... i i.i .i iko mcinhivnnl nf the last cen BIUCICU numii.".- - - - tury, duty is the watchword of this.

Five hundred people watched the ball game Sunday afternoon and saw the home team defeat The Dalles boys by a 12 to 9 score. Most of the tickets were Bold and the receipts amounted to about $75. The excursion from The Dalles brought lo visitors. art oi tne game was ueciu allee.' the visitors scoring three runs the first inning. It was a -oose egg for Hood Kiver ana ine alles piled up three more to their score. The visitors were wna iron ae light and the rooters howled. The Dalles got two more. Hood River was furious. The team pulled together in a bunch and landed five runs. About this time someone got mad ana everything became tangled up. Coats were pulled ana ou men nisneu onto uie diamond. Cooler council prevailed and order was restored. The visitors made but one more score. Hood Kivor crossed tia tiiinii nlatn ap.vp.n times, and the game belonged to the home team, 12 to 9.

The whole road can be built on right of way already promised, but if Mr. Button will permit it a short turn may be avoided by the road crossing a corner of his field. H. C.
