SCHOOL SHOWS
BIG INCREASE
The Hood River mihlir scb.wilo
Monday morning with an enrollment of
348 pupils. This is an increase of 32
pupils over the opening day of 1903.
The rooms and crude are already
overcrowded, and the prospects are that
rooma win uave to oe rented before the
building on the hill is completed and
ready for occupancy. The State street
school enrolled S3 pupils the opening
iiiurmug, uuu me rain street school 28o,
The board already realizes that addi
tional teachers must be employed by the
end of the month.
The enrollment in the different grades
uii me upeiung morning was: lemn,
11 j ninth, 13; eighth, 28; seventh, 33;
sixth, 23; fifth, 41: fourth, 42; third, 45;
second, 14; first, 35. This was for the
Park street school. The State street
showed, brat grade, 32; second. 31.
The temporary asiignnient of teachers
was made as follows : Professor L. A.
Wiley, tenth grade ; Professor Crouse,
ninth and eighth grades: Mrs. Gove.
seventh and sixth grades; Miss Carrie
Coppte, fourth grade; Miss Cora
Couple, fifth: Miss Deitz. third: Miss
Mathews, second and first. State street
school Miss (J roves, second grade; Miss
Benson, first.
Directors Baker and Blowers and
Clerk Hemman were at the school house
at the opening hour to sign up contracts
with the teachers. A number of the
patrons of the school were also present
to lend their iuterest and encourage
ment for a successful year of school. .
A meeting of the directors and the
teachers was held Saturday afternoon
in the State street school house, when
matters of mutual interest were talked
over.
When Professor Wiley announced that
lie would expect the teaciiers to make
daily reports to him, the young ladies
all looked up in surprise, but before
they could put in a protest, the pro
fessor assured them that if they did this
he would relieve them of the necessity
of making monthly reportB, as have
been required heretofore.
"Then you don't expect to do any
teaching?" remarked one of the teach
ers, who realized what an amount of
work is involved in the making out of
the reports.
The principal assured them that he
did. lie wilt teach one grade and ex
pects to accomplish the other work in
addition. By means of the daily reports,
Principal iley says he expects to be
better able to conduct the affairs of the
school. He will know when students
are absent for more than one day, and
by seeing the names of the pupils of the
school each day, will soon become ac
quainted with each one, and learn to
know the progress each pupil is making.
Professor Wiley proposes introducing
some new features in the work of the
public schools of this city. While lie
has not had time to perfect them all,
he says he has started a movement to
secure the use of the library in Judge
Prather's office for the school children.
Every one he has spoken to in regard to
the mutter is heartily in favor of the
idea. The school has about 500 books,
and this list will add 600 or 700 more.
At the suggestion of the new princi
pal, the closets on the school grounds
will be repainted with a dark color, and
notices will be posted of i5 fines on all
students caught defacing the walls of
the building. The money will be given
to the party producing the convicting
evidence.
Barrett. School opened Monday with

HOOD RIVER WELL
KNOWN EVERYWHERE
"I don"t believe there is another tow
of its sine in the United States that is so
generally known as Hood ltiver," re
marked .Leslie Butler of Butler & Co
bankers, on his return, Monday, from
a trip oi six week) to ESkaawav
"I frequently met men who, when
tney learned 1 wag lrom tlood Kirer.
would say, 'Oh, yes, I've heard of Hood
Kiver. ihev tell me that a a eood
town.' Another had probably eaten our
sirawoerrieB or apples and would re
mark about the fine fruit he had secured
from Hood River.
"No, you can't find any better town
than Hood River, no matter how far
you get away lrom home.
Mr. Butler says he wore winter cloth-
ing while in Alaska, and that the even
ings were so cool and pleasant the
women always used their furs. The hot
summer weather Hood River was expe
riencing on ins return was Quite a
change, he says, and he wishes he could
have remained in the North for two
weeks more,
Skagwav, he says, experienced a kill
ing frost on the 26th of last month.
The people are rushing in freight to the
interior lor tear that the l ukon should
close and remain blocked with ice until
next June.
Times continue good in that country
Skagwav is 999 miles distant from Se
attle and the head of navigation for
steamships. The railroad through, the
White I ass begins here, and the amount
oi business transacted is something nn
mense, says Mr. butler. During the
month of August over 10,000 tons of
freight were sent into the interior from
this ooint.
A large amount of gold comeB every
week irom the mines in the interior.
The precious dust is shipped in heavily
strapped boxes of a little over a cubic
foot in size, and it is laughable, says
Mr. isutier, to see some ot ttie "tender-
feet ' attempt to lift one of the boxes.

BONDING MOVEMENT
MEETS WITH FAVOR
"We intend to push the bonding
proposition to a snccessiui nnisn re
marked Mr. Shoemaker last (Saturday.
It is reported that nearly 100 signa
tures have been secured to the petition
prepared for presentation to the county
court, and those interested in seeing the
undertaking carried through aim to get
matters in shape so the election may be
held at the time of the presidential
election, Monday, November 7.
F. W. Angus tells the Glacier that the
law requires bonds of a couple hundred
dollars to insure the payment of inci
dental expenses of getting the matter
through ttie court and before the voters
of the district. The farmers in the dis
trict it is propoed to bond for the ditch
are ready to put up the required sum.
C. E. Mar.kham states that the first
assessment to be levied will be for the
purpose of securing a survey and esti
mate of tiie probable cost of the proposed
irrigation system. When this is done
it will be known to just what expense
the people of the district will have to be
put in order to secure water.
Eastern Capital Interested.
F. D. Warner of Portland is in Hood
River looking over the land for which
the farmers of the Crapper district pro
pose to secure water. Mr. Warner repre
sents eastern capital seeking investment
in irregation plan's.
Should the people of the Crapper dis
trict care to have outside capital build
the ditch, and if the situation appears
favorable to Mr. Warner after he has
examined the ground, it is understood
that the eastern capitalist which Mr.
arner represents may take up with the
movement for water and will build a
system that would meet the needs of the
farmers.
Several of the farmers, especially the
Shoemaker Bros. , appear anxious to have
the bonding plan carried out, and to let
the people own and operate their own
ditch, but on the other hand there are
said to be some of the farmers who
would prefer to pay an annual rental for
the water if they were relieved of the
expense of building the system.
Mr. V arner tells the Glacier he will
have to see what the people want before
he can be prepared to say what bit com
pany will uo.

broke $500 worth of glass windows.

Compliment Hlx Music
There have been many compliments
on the rendition 1 ol the violin solo,
"Traumerie," by Professor C. R. Mc
Calley, with Miss Anne Hmith accom
panis, at the Unitarian church, last
Sunday morning. Music lovers were
delighted with this pioce of special
music.
Professor McCalley is a violinist of
reputation, and has published several
seclections of his own composition that
became favorites at once and met w ith
ready sale. He is arranging for a dance
in the opera house on the evening of
Saturday, September 17, when he prom
ises to supply some very fine orchestra
music.
Hood River people are looking for
ward to this dance with a great deal of
pleasure.
Kentucky Corn In Hood River.
In the Glacier office is an exhibition
corn stalk ten feet in height, grown by
E. C. Rogers, the Belmont gardener.
Mr. Rogers says this is not like the
corn Joe I'urser used to raise on Hard
scrabble, the kind he couldn't reach
the top of when on horseback, (it was
so low).
The corn was grown from seed Mr.
Rogers secured from Kentucky, and
shows Hood River soil can produce
premium corn as well as fancv fruits.
Stores Close at 7 O'clock.
The business men of Hood River, hav
ing the interest of their employes in
mind, propose hereafter to close their
Btores at 7 o'clock in the evening.
An agreement signed by all the busi
ness men states that the merchants aeree
