-. f ' 11 SALMON NOTES. 8. C. Zeiyler, one of white Salmon's strawberry kings, has always tielieved in diversified crops. This time it' twins a boy nd a girl. lie lias dis tanced all competitors, and McClure, Kuan, Moore and the rest admit that they are hopelessly out of the race. Frank (irosliong, our "village black smith," has bought of Jewett & 8011 the 4-acre tract lying between the prop erty of C. F. Waldo and that of P. A. Trana. All stages between this place and Trout Lake are filled to the limit every trip. This, together with "the freight handled at our dock, shows the rapid development o( the country tributary to White Salmon. A great need on this side of the river is an irrigating system. Will someone having the neeesiary capital at com mand come and look over the ground? A most enjoyable dancing party was given last Friday night in honor of t lie marriage of (Jus Coleman and Miss Mary Tiium. A number of our people spent the day Sunday at the Koland ranch up Uie river. I lie steamer Metlako con veyed the party to the nlace selected. A splendid basket lunch contributed to the enjoyment of the inner man, and some of the ladies nibbled a little, loo. Those present were Mr and Mrs Frank Hansaker, Mr and Mrs Art Wood, Mr and Mrs ill Overbaugh, Mr and Ars liek Kreps, Mr and Mrs Condon, t)i Uearliart, Minse Mabel and Hi rule Km- nious, Misses Alice, Lrvu and Aoru Gunning, Miss Mary Wolfard, Miss An nie Wyers, Miss Susie Wolfard, Misms Lydia Crow, Belle Sheen, Gertrude Ward, Dorris Condon, Ueorgie Johns ton and Ktljel Johnston, Dorris Over baugh ; Messrs Fred Purser, Claude Wetherell, John Wood, James Wood, Dewier Giosliong, Day llunsaker, Karl Kmtnons, Roy Emmons, (iuy Crow, Hoy Crow, Dan l'erry, Will Perry, Frank F.gan, M C Fox, Peter Wyers. Rev. W. G. Eliot preached a very helpful sermon Sunday evening 011 the ' r "Purposes of (iod." There are many in this place who feel that they cannot afford to miss one of these practical Sermons so full of the real soul of Chris tiauity and so free from woru-oul dogma. Rev. Gardner, who is understood to h tt candidate for the pulpit of our lit- 't'irch, will preach here next Sun Everybody is invited to be pre o hear'hiiu. v few nights since a strange phe Tienon occurred.

Porn. In White Salmon, Wash., July lfl, lilu.'i, to Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gordon, a daughter. Misses Grace and Gertrude Morris of Sun Francisco are visitingtheirfriends, the Underwoods and Perrys, at Pine Flat. Gulcr's hotel at Trout Lake is becom ing very popular as a summer resort. A largo number of outing parties are gathered there from Portland, The Dalles and Hood River. Mount Hood Notes. j Some of the liova have gone out to the ; harvest fields while others are preparing to follow. Xow, as the first crop of clover is nil cut, it has become a question as to who can get the most water for the next crop regardless of rights. - Last week, hile E. llensen was go ing fi.-diing he didn't see a cougar, but he did see a deer crossing the pond nbove the dam. In crossing, the deer waded into swimming water and got too close to the gate and the current drew him through the tiuiee way, but he was not drowned. Klmer Gribble has quit working in the camp on the West Fork and moved back to Mount Hood, where he is driv ing a team for Koontz & Kelley, Jiaul ing lumber to Hood River. J. L. Langille left for his mines on McCoy creek last week. Jim says he will go ami get a few nuggets so he can improve his farm at Mount Hood and become an old hay seed. H.B.Bird has charge of the Davenport mill up here, which is slowly neariii completion. Happenings at Sieveiison. SU'veiiHon Pioneer. Articles of incorporation filed this week by the L'nderwood Mining company. I he concern is capitalized forfUUHiO and the ineoronitors are Amos L'nderwood, Kd L'nderwood ami Kd Sweetland. May the new company make millions. The I'acific Kxpress company has es tablished an otfice here, with A. .'. Sly as agent. J. K. liurch, route agent, was here Tuesday and Wednesday in the interest of the company. The C. K. V N. is now a I'acitic Kpres company Carrier. A general express and money order business will be done. The olliiv will be at Totten's store. . Captain lUilcher already has a bu.-i-riess at the Collins hot springs of which lie is deservedly proud. He has built a romniod o :s kitchen and dining room, but of temporary architecture, and f -r the ret has all sizes and degrees f tents. This is th plan pursued by Allen P.roe. in the Yellotm National park, and to nay that the enets are nleawhl is but to state it mildly. The bath house is a very handsome buihliiii and has only recently received the fii - ishing touches. Mr. Belcher already has bis hands full before be baa fairly begun on bis extensive plan of improve ments. A. Ilirebheimer, president of the Wind River Lumber company, and S.Y. Hyde, a stockholder iu the ,-eame con cern, both of La Crosse, Wis., were in Stevenson Saturday and made the Pio neer oilice a pleasant call. They are accompanied on this trip by their wives, who are, of course, delighted with the Weet. Mr. Hirshheimer gays the plant of the company is to be further improved soon by substituting two new band saws for the re-saw now being used. The company suffered heavily last year by forest tires in this county. This forces it to log, cut and sell tno burned timber as rapidly as possible. Manager II. C. Campbell was in Ste venson early this week when he made arrangements with the Stevenson Wharf company for the transfer of the dock to his company. Though the old dock has cost in the neighltorhood of $2,000, and includes a valuable water frontage as well, the consideration is nominal, the company, however, binding themselves to construct a high and low water dock and keep it in good repair. Accordingly the new dock will he several feet higher and will be a gradual incline until the high ground is readied. The driveway will be wider than at present, with ample room for a wagon to turn around at the landing. A commodious ware house will also be built. The company nuree to allow any other boat line dock privileges, charging them a reasonable foe therefor. The change marks a dis tinct improvement in transportation facilities, and in a way, unloads a bur den from a faithful few who have borne the brunt of great trouble and expense for years. I'uderwoud Brevities. Abe Foley, the freighter, is carrying supplies to' Bill Coulter's logging camp on the Underwood bluff". Foreman Bill Coulter of the Menominee Lumber company has about 20 men and 8 or it teams at work snaking logsto the chute running over the blull. It is evident this company means business. The hiirh wind last Saturday played havoc with the Bruall craft In the mouth of the White Salmon. The sail boat of A. J. Haynes, the mail carrier, was beached and badly damaged, re quiring two days' work to repair it. The boats of Amos Underwood and C. Arson were also damaged, and the ferry scow was piled upon the sands. It seems that w henever the water of t he Columbia is at the stage it was last week the least wind storm is apt to swamp the boats. 1 lie damage was all done within a few minutes. The Columbia River and Northern surveyors, who were at L'nderwood a couple weeks ago, continued up the river bank to l.yle, and have now re turned to Chenoweth. From the sur veyors it was learned that the work is for the location of a telephone line, but in the minds ot many there are sus picions of a railroad. The telephone line will in all probability be put up soon aim w in give service 10 me norm bank of the Columbia all the way from Vancouver to Lyle. This will be par ticularly handy in giving notification of the arrival ol steamboats. The Menominee Lumber company has several million feet of logs at the mouth of White Salmon, while logs are piled on the banks of the stream for a distance of IS miles. The logs are of excellent ouality. A pile driver is now driving piles at the lower end of the boom, to permit the removing of logs 111 rafts. About lir,000 feet are towed at one time to the saw mill at Nleolai. When the weather is calm, three or more trips are made a day, but most of the rafting is done after the wind re cedes in the evening. John Dark and Ed Swcetland went into the McCoy creek mines, Tuesday, Abe Ames accompanied them as packer lor the party, lbe gold seekers are elated over the prospectsof theirdiggins on McCoy creek. Odell Notes. Mrs. H. F. Davidson and Miss Eliza beth Qninn of Illinois were callers this morning at the Little White Store. Like all new comers, Miss Quinn is charmed with the Hood River country. Mr. and Mrs. II. M. Metcalf and two grand children were guests yesterday at the tents of Messrs. Coe & hhnte The Odell warehouse and public hall is about completed, and is a good piece of work. Contractors Coe & Shute are entirely worthy of patronage. Klmer Lafferty will leave tomorrow for La Grande and Baker City. B. G. Young and family returned yes terday from a hunt for blackberries near the Did Parker mill. Thev report a good time and blackberries plentiful. II. E. Dodge is putting on the finish ing touches of paint to the new hall Trout Lake News Notes. R. A. I'.yrkett on his Fountain farm, last week, in four days, cut fits hay crop and put it in the harn.OO tons.and eight tons for ().!!. 1-nsbie. He was assisted by Professor Frisbie, Thomas Collins and Porter McMillan. He was so pleased with his hay crop that he bought his daughter Ellie a new Bur dette organ for 117. Miss Eflie is ijtiite proud of her present. Mr. I'.yrkett lost one of his best cows last week. He is milking lit and send ing the 111 ilk to the cheese factory. There was quite a number of Hood River people at Trout Lake last week. (lieimwetli News Notes. During the windy weather, one day last week, the Washington Lumber com pany's mill was forced to close down on account of the smoke being blown- back down the stack. The week closed, though, with very fine weather. Monte Arnold, sawyer in the Wash ington Lumber company's mill, was at I l'nderwood, Sunday, on a isit to A. J. Haynes. 1 The saws of the Washington Lumber I company are buzzing lively these days. 1 Last week the company was shipping j ties, but now the men are working at I the lumber, of which there are several ; million feet piled along the flume. I The surveying party of the C. It. & N. is asisiin with ns. The men arrived Mon day, ami are now rnnning a line for a law irrigating ditch, which is to take water from t lie Little White Salmon, some V2 or 14 miles i p thestream. The ditch, it is said, will lw six feet wide at the bottom, and will supply an abund-an.-e of water to the Chenoweth settlers, as ell as making a paradise out of the vast !;'.r..l holding of this enterprising company. Shaffer Iiros. will return to Arkansas mIh.iiI the first o.f next month. William Terguson, an employe of the Washington Lumber company, made a trip to Hot! Hier, Tuesday, with Haynes, the mail carrier. J. M. Spriggsand A. E. Moretz were at Vancouver and Portland last week. Sportsmen report gd fishing in the Little White Salmon. The young people of Chenoweth had a nice little dance Saturday evening. Mrs. K. M. Hill furnished the supper. Quite a number of voung foikg weredown from mill A. John Yandle occasionally wanders Three Carloads of Furniture For the First Half of 1903, And the.cars just in by far the largest and filled to the roof with a better o-rade of Furniture than we have ever shown.

Arthur Arnold and Harry White went deer hunting Sunday. After follow ing tracks for some time, Harry, catch ing sight of some animals a rod or so ahead, cried out: "We have been fol lowing pig tracks instead of a deer." Hut at that moment they discovered it was a bear and two cubs Two shots laid the mother bear out, but the cubs escaped, one, however, carried a broken leg and a bullet through its nose. Two prouder boys could not well be found and well they may be, for neither has yet reached the age of 17. Beautiful Hotel Local inn in (dlewihlc. No prettier selection could have been made for Hatchelder & Krwin's Country Club Inn than the location in the secluded wooded retreats of Mlewilde In a beautiful grove of oaks and pines the Inn will be but 21) minutes walk from the depot and post oliice. Though within the corporate limits of Hood River, the Inn will be almost, ns seclud ed as if located miles from town. This Idlewilde tract at the west end of town has practically never been occupied, and remains today as nature made it. Gently sloping toward the Columbia, cut up with frequent mounds and draws, covered with noble oaks, pines and thickets and dotted with numerous cold water springs, the tract of tM) acres offers indeed a delightful location for the sum mer hotel. J. A. Arnient, who is here from Portland in charge of the improvements being made by Tktchelder & Krwin, took a (ihicier man through park-like Idlewilde last week. Near the site of the proposed Inn, there is building a 10 room cottage, which Mr A rment expects to have completed by August 1, when it will be filled with guests from Portland. The cottage, built after the German style of architecture, with large extend ed eves, is two stories in height and is to be a handsome building. Seaman Covis in charge of the c.irp 'iiter worl: The large dining room is iutcndid to accommodate those people who uill spread tents about the cottage. A laundry, lavatory and bath house is lo cated just west of the cottage, ami a sewer system is provided for all waste water. A spring on the side hill sup plies pure drinking water. To the north a ravine leads to the railroad track, and just beyond this is a large lagoon, on which boats will be placed for the use of the guests.- A splendid view of the Columbia river and Mount Adams is obtained from the cottage. The trees about the hotel are trimmed up, and an easy driveway is being constructed. Mr. Iiatchelder has erect "d tents un der a grove of spreading oaks, w here his fumily are enjoying the delightful Hood Kivcr summer. Two large, nuignilicM.t oak trees in front of the tents Mis.

Wright, representing tlie Wag goner Extension Ladder company, is in Hood River taking orders for his useful device; Light, and easily man ipulated, they are just the thing for the fruit grower. If Mr. Wright gives you a call let him' demonstrate the I utility of his ladders. the automatic lock and extension holder is strong, light and durable be cause it ia ce-eolbreed by a strand of carbon steel wire let info a groove on the back of each side rail and drawn very tight. Each strain) of this wire has' a breaking ftlrain of 2 000 pounds, this makes possible the use of u very light side rail. The wood takes the compression strain, the-wire takes lbe tension strain, and together they form a I'ombinalion steel and wood truss, which. is just as effective for its pur pose ns is.-the truss in a bridge. Such, an art round bidder ought .to. readily sell on sight." Will Operate Company Store. The Mount Hood Lumber company has leased the slore property of L. K.

The store building is being refilled and renovated. The rear of the store room In'.s been lined up for a general oliice of the company, and will here after be the headquarters of Mr. Early. Just who will have charge of the store has not been determined. The mill company is busy now with all the men it can secure putting logs into the river., Wing dams are build ing at various pointsand rocks removed from the channel. The splash dam above th tails of the West I'ork has been replaced, and altogether some $ lo, 000 will have been expended before an attempt will be made to drive logs. Mr. ' C. A.
