To the People of Hood River:
The fire of Sunday last,
the tow n, has caused me to realize how utterly helpless-my situation would be in the
event of a fire; therefore I have decided to proceed without delay to
Slaughter My Entire StocR of Dry Goods, Clothing,
Shoes, until further notice.
The stock must be reduced, as with my immense stock constantly arriving, my
situation is one of the utmost financial peril, and the situation as it stands affords
the greatest buying opportunity in the history of retailing for the people of Hood
Kiyer. A e mean business, and positively will not cease our efforts until some action
m taken 10 relieve tne Helpless condition of the business
Fast and Furious Movement is what we want, and
to you.
As further evidence of our good faith, we quote the

As the stage was coming from Trout
Lake to White Salmon, a few daya ago,
the rear horses became tangled in the
harness of the leaders, and when the
stage was coming around a grade be
tween Gregory's and the bridge, the
horses began to run, striking a tree as
they went and throwing Miss Ethel
Jones, a passenger, out, spraining her
wriBt. The driver was thrown out and
dragged some distance. A smashup
seemed inevitable, when Dr. Marie
Egni, with more presence of mind than
the men passengers, climbed over the
front seat and over the dashboard, re
covered the lines and stopped tho double
team until the driver could regain con
trol. The passengers were happy over
the fact that no more serious lesults oc
curred than a few bruises and a good
scare.

HEAVY RAIN ON
SUNDAY NIGHT
The long dry spell was broken Satur
day night by a rain and thunder storm.
Clouds rolled up from the west Satur
day afternoon, and toward evening rain
Ix'gan to fall. The showers continued
through the night and up to noon of
Sunday. In all, .HHof and inch of rain
fell, according to the government rain
guage in charge of D. N. Byerlee, the lo
cal weather observer.
A heavy thunder storm accompanied
the rain. The thunder continued for
most of the night, with now and then
reflecting flashes of lightening.
The storm cleared the atmosphere of
the heavy pall of smoke that hung over
tho valley for two weeks or more, and
while the rain wasn't so very heavy it
appears to have been sufficent to quelch
the fires that had been burning in the
forests on both sides of the Columbia.
The absence of dust since the rain is
greatly appreciated, and drives through
the country appear the fashion these
evenings,
Apple men say the continued warm
weather has kept the early apples from
taking on much color, but they are
pleased with the rain, as it freshened up
the trees and insures cool nights for tho
coloring of the fruit.
