Wade Dean, the popular stage driver on the Trout Lake route, was in town Monday night. Notes From Underwood. By the School Children. Tltis is the evening for leap year par tics. What big smiles the young men might to wear. First chance in eight ytarg, Don't refuse, boys, as you may not have another chance for four years. Tomorrow is the first of March. . Wre will not know before this goes to preps bow the old adage will prove about March coming in like a lion or a lamb. This remains to be seen. The attendance in school is on the in crease. Perhaps examination hassome thing to do with it (?). Little Hazel Lyon was absent from school today on account of illness. Frank Larson left this morning for Portland, where he expects to look for work. Amos Underwood is still confined to thu house on account of illness. School election next Saturday at the school house; two directors will be elected. . UiirrotU District. Minstrels, minstrels, niinetrels! The Hood Kivcr cornet hand will give a ftMt-elass minstrel performance at the Barrett school house next Friday even ing, March 4, 1904. We understand there are 17 In the troupeand that each one is a slar in his particular line. We are assured they will give a very amus ing and at the same time moral enter tainment. The proceeds of the show are to be used to assist in providing new instruments tor t lie band. Every body turn out. Admission, 15 and 25c. The Christian Endeavor social on the evening of Washington's birthd iy was held at the home ot Mr. una Mrs. J. N. Bridges, and a large assembly of young people participated. A delightful time was had. Games, conversation and speculation engaged the young people's attention until quito a lute hour, at which time the game of speculation was taken on, and after settling it, all departed for their homes, wishing that all the Christian 'Endeavor entertain ment a might lie held at Zed's home. E. E. Regester has moved into the house on the place of .1. W. Kmmel, de ceased, known as the Jut Hill turin. Frank Davenport's bnllgine made a flying trip through the Barrett district lust Thursday afternoon. Frank timed it just right and arrived in front of the school house just us school was dis missed, and Skinner and the. other kids were as tickled as when they got their first pair of boots with red tops. Ike Nealeigh has entirely recovered from smallpox and was perambulating the streets of Hood River last Katur day. We gave the marshal a tip, but he said he iiad been keeping an eye ot) him all day. The Endeavor society held a taffy pulling, last Friday evening, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie CVppie, and we understand hud a jolly time, which was to be expected from the well known hospitality of the host and hostess. We are not informed how many took tally homo in their pockets, but we learn that several couples on their way homo had their hands stuck together. The Iloosier social should have been called the Barrett Iloosier social, as Barrett was in evidence in all parts of tne nouse. a. is. Uusii gave the ora tion, E. E. Regester was secretary and poet. George Wilson was t lie com edian, while three-fourths of the music was furnished by Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Regester and A. B. Cash, and the tables were crowded by Barrett lloosiers who had been fasting for the past two weeks In anticipation. The president of the ladies' aid so ciety has given notice that at their next meeting, to be held Thursday, March 3, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Garner, an important matter will be brought up, and that all the ladies can have their say on the subject. The president did not state the length of tne session, uut we presume It would be as well for those who attend to take their blankets, n sack of flour and a bug of potatoes along, so as to tie prepared for contingencies. Some of our friends object to Rocky Run and suggest Kockyford avenue. Well, so be it. "A rock by any other name would be just as hard" of a dark night. Miss Laura Wilson of The Dalles is paying a short visit to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John A. Wilson, coming down Monday and returnina Thursday. We trust that on her rii'xt visit Miss" Laura will remain limn enough to give her friends a chatu.-e to renew acquaintance ship. The minstrels were unfortunate in their selection of Friday night, as any kind of an entertainment bus no at traction for our lodge ladies on that evening. Mrs. W. R. Hoole Is again confined to bed with scrofulous ulcers, the dis ease having attacked her left side. The ground hog Is still in evidence. In spite of inclement weather, there was an immense audience iu attend ance at the morning services at the Valley Christian church last Sunday morning. Are you going to the minstrels Fri day evening? is all you can hear among the school children. We understand that Mr. and Mrs. attended the Iloosier social. Did you meet them? Miss Hazel E merson is improving in health and her many friends hope soon to see her out again. We are pleased to be able to state that the family of Rev. A. 4. Beery have all recovered from the smallnox. The congratulations of all the people of! hub district are sincerely extended to this family on their escaping with such a slight attack of this dread disease. 0 A marriage In high life Is on the tap in this district. We speak for a big slice of cuke. Did any one hear Rev. A. A. Beery tell his story at the Hoosier meeting? Again Barrett is called upoB. Miss Grace Wilson was elected secretary of the Iloosier society, and with all the talent in this district, we know of no one who will Grace the position with more dignity than Miss Wilson. Ver ily, great is Barrett! We are indebted to Miss Nettie King for the following items. Thanks, Miss Nettie: Mrs. Mabor.ey and her mother, Mrs. Smith, moved last Thursday to their homestead near Ione.lii Morrow county: Bernie Phelps and family have moved into the Helms house, recently vacated by Mrs. Mahouey. We understand that Mr. Thomberry has sold his five-acre tract to Messrs. Curtis and Smith; consideration, $130 an acre. Mrs. Peter Harsh has been having quite a siege with poison oak, but we are pleased to say is now getting the better of it. ' Odell Notes The entertainment last Friday at Sears' hall given by the Jolly Jokers was very creditable, but rendered to a small audience, owing to , -weather con ditions that could not be foretold. The Odell school has ; light attend ance since its opening after a closedown of 10 days. Otto Ehrck west to Portland last Sunday for a few days'. viBit with his sister, Mrs. McCoy,who resides there. William Ehrck is somewhat indis posed, but nothing serious is anticipated. And still the working man is tied up on account of inclement weather. About the only occupation now is that of shov eling snow and breaking roads for Bailey, the jolly mail carrier. Mr. Tracy and wife from Maine spent a few days, recently, with Messrs. B. T. and Sherman Young, Mrs. Tracy being a sister of the Young brothers. They returned to Portland a few days ago. The work on the.Bone ditch is neces sarily postponed on account of weather conditions. Just now we are long on water. - Rumor has it that soon another store will be started at Odell. There is ample room to build store buildings -here, so come along. Mr. Kellogg, formerly of the Mount Hood settlement, has leased the C L. Rogers place at Willow Flat for several years and will soon move there. Mrs. Booth is visiting friends in The Dalles this week. About the only man here who is prof iting by this stormy weather is L. M. Wilson, who has sledded down from Mount Hood, lumber sufficient to build a house. It is a cold day when Wilson gets left or words to that effect. It does not require a prophetic finger to point to the fact that the West is on the eve of a wonderful tide of prosperity, which will last, no doubt, for several years. The result of the Russo Japanese war, together with the Lewis and Clark fair puts into the hands of the farmers of the Northwest a hand, which, if played, should prove a big winner. The war conditions have stim ulated, prices and with the probability of Russia's inability to export wheat, the result is an easy problem to figure out. What's the matter with the Roosevelt club organized seven weeks ago? Why not have a rousing . meeting? Al most every day a crowd gathers at the Lit tle White Store-to await the coming of the mail, and politics and war 111 the far lMiet are trie absorbing topics. Roosevelt, as chief of the nation's affairs, is prominent. The fact is, I haven't heard a Bingle man, regardless of poli tical faith, that opposes his candidacy. There are no trusts here. Roosevelt is surely and easily the people's candidate. Frank Neff has a beautiful collection of stereoscopic views on display at the Little White Store. The views are lo cal, all being scenes along the wild, rushing waters of Hood river, west of Odell. James Eggert informs me that a friend of his in Kansas, haviug recently sold out his farm there, is only waiting the time when lie can secure a house to move his family into here, aud he will Hart for Hood River. Mr.HollowelLwho lives at Eggermont, is also looking for friends from Indiana in early spring, i here is room and op portunity for many more enterprising people in the famous valley of Hood River, and while as a rule, it is unsafe to advise friends concerning a location for investment and a home, Hood River stands in thu front rank as an exception. And the longer tiie matter is deferred, the greater will be the cost of a home site. Hosier Items. Intended lor last week. Having been snowed in, last week,your correspondent failed to give you any news. Will try and make amends by reporting what has transpired during the past two weeks. J. M.

Mrs. Tracy is a sister of B. T. Young and Mrs. Cushman of this place.

New Ruling on Timber Claims. The register and receiver of the local land office and the special agentassigned to The Dalles land district have been in structed by a circular from the general land office" o make a change in the cross-examination of timber land claim ants making final proof. During the past year the cross-examination in final proofs on timber claims lias, under in structions trom the department, oeen conducted by a special agent. The new ruling requires the olficers before whom proof is made to make the cross-examination on the blanks nrovidud bv the de partment. If a timber lauu claimant makes his proof before the register and receiver those officers will conduct the cross-examination. In cases where final proof is made before a United States commissioner or clerk of a state court, that olhcer will cross-examine claim ant fend witnesses, ' reducing their testimony to writing, to be submitted with nnal proof papers.
