SHOW HERE TWO NIGHTS NEXT WEEK The JoBsphine Deffry Co. open a two night engagement at the Opera House Wednesday, September 13. On Wednesday night the company will present for the first time in Hood River the beautiful four-act emotional drama, "A Deserted liride." The story deals with an adventuress who aspires to a higher position in life than she possesses. She sees an advertisement in a paper for the lost wife of a wealthy nobleman, who speks this means to recover his bride. The adventuress impersonates her and is received by the husband. All is well until the husband of the imposter wife appears, and for the first time her true identity is revealed. The i( al wife appears on the scene, and is given her proper position iu life. Particular attention is given to the costumes and sceuio effects. Prices, 25, :if, and 50 cents. Seats on sale at Clark's drug store. (ilut In Tomatoes la Severe. Under forced receipts the tomato market received a shock Tuesday that it will likely take some time to recov er from, says the Portland Journal. Arrivals never were so heavy in the Jooal market as today. As far north as the Puget Sound country, east to almost the state line of Idaho and south nearly to the California line the shipments are surging in this di rection. Most remarkable is this heavy tide of tomatoes iu view of the fact that early est mates gave Oregon the shortest crop of tomatoes in its history. During the early spring con siderable damage was done the tomato vines by cutworms, and the intitlal crop was cut down to such a size that prices readily rauged between 50 and 75 cents, and once in a while 80 cents was received for a very fancy lot. To day tomhtoes may be had for Ises than packing and express charges. Along the street during the day's trading tomatoes were slumped oil at prices ranging from 15 to 25 cents a box for good stuff. Poor stuff was almost given away, many boxes being sent to the dumps for want of a purchaser. Cannery supplies have become so heavy that the institutions cannot tnko care of tne offerings so suddenly forced upon them. Quality of present arrivals is hotter than ever, and this is the time that growers will induce housewives to put up their supplies for winter's use. Not again is the tomato market likely to repeat its present performnace; in fact, the pre vailing prices are such that every box shipped is that much loss to the grow ers. Advertised Letter List.

Nothing was found to reveal the identity of the little stranger or which might serve es a clew to bis parentage, and aside frcm the brief information furnished by the note the little fellow's advent into public notice will probably re main a mystery for all time to come.

Ordinance! 98 and 99, providing a contract with the Light and Water Co. for water for Hushing sewers, and making it possi ble for the city authorities to clear streets and sidewalks of obstructions, went to second and third reading and final passage with railroad schedule. Ordinances No. 100 and 101. pro viding for fire limits and giving the racitlo States Telephone Co. certain rights and privileges for plaoing poles ana stringing wires witnin tne city, were referred repsectiveiy to the fire and water committee and the judici ary committee. City Treasurer E. L. Smith report ed an overdraft on the water fund of $40.48, with a balance of only $2 in the treasury after making up the de ficiency in the water fund. On mo tion of Early a sufficient amount was ordered transferred from the water fund to meet the overdraft. Councilman McDonald suggested that inasmuch as a rebate of $1200 had been made by the city on returned saloon licenses, the city onioeis who had received a percentage of the li censes when the money was paid to the city last year, should be made to return a rebate on their fees to the city. Recorder Nickelsen considered the procedure a bluff, and read from the special ordinance which provides that the reoorder shall receive five per cent of all license moneys paid into the city treasury. Treasurer E. L. Smith didn't see how the matter could affect him, as it related to a time when he was not in office. The subject was referred to the judioiary committee for inves tigation. City Engineer John Leland Hender son announced that he had just com pleted a resurvey of the Erwin and Watson second addition to the town of Hood River and found that the city owned lens property where the pest house stands than was represented to them when the land was purchased. A vote of thanks was extended to the telephone company for a phone which bad been placed in the city hall free of cost PRANKS OF TAME SQUIRRELS AT INN Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Williams are home from a month's sojourn in the invigorating ozone which abounds at Cloud Cap Inn. Mr. Williams comes home much improved in health, and reports an enjoyable outing. Mr. Williams says the travel to the Inn was never heavier, many Eastern people being among the tourists. The air has been comparatievly free from smoke, making this mountain trip more enjoyable than ever. What smoke has filled the air the last month comes from fires burning between Mount Hood and Mount Jefferson. Tho family of rock squirrels is still numerous at the Inn, the little fellows becoming very tame. They feed from the hand of strangers and will climb upon the chair of the guests at the table. No one in any way injures or molests them, and they are becoming very bold. To the guests at the Inn these tame squirrels are one of the interesting features of the trip. Ed says he was feeding peanuts to the squirrels one day, and "Old Croppy," as one of the squirrels is known, the one with a slit in his ear, placed 20 kernels in his pouch. He ran off to deposit the load for winter use, returning in a moment for more nuts. At another time he took 16 more. What is known as the Clark crow, Explorer Clark being the first person to mention the birds, also become very tame about the Inn. Mrs. Lan gille feeds them daily at the door step, and the way the crows pull and tug over a piece of meat tacked to a block is amusing. Deer are now and then seen about the hotel. A few days ago a party coming up the road met a large buck, accompanied by a doe and beautiful fawn. The surprise was mutually tudden, and the deer fled before any one thought of snapping a camera. Wheat Yield Continues (Jood. The Climate and Crop Bulletin for the week ending Tuesday, September 5, reports conditions throughout the state as follows: No precipitation of consequence oc curred throughout the state during the last week and all late crops, with the exception of corn and hops, are iu need of a good soaking rain. Light frost occurred Thursday morning on some of the bottom lands in Southern Oregon, but no damage resu ted there from. Thrashing is practically completed in Western Oregon, while east of the Cascade Mountains this work contin ues under favorable circumstances. The yield of both wheat and barley continues good in the Columbia and the Grand Ronde alleys, but in the Willamette valley and Southern Ore gon, the grain yields were generally below the aveiage. Hops made satisfactory advance ment and the crop is about ready for harvesting; picking will become gen eral by the first of next week. The vines are free of vermin and it is ex pected the quality will be good. Corn is doing nicely and a large crop promised. Field onions are being pulled. Late potatoes and gardens are doing poorly owing to lack of rain. Pears and prunes are ripe and being gathered. Pears are abundant, but prunes will average about half of a orop. Apples are small in size and in well kept orchards an average crop will be harvested. Stock on the ranges continue in fairly good condition ; in the dairy districts cattle are losing flesh and there is a marked failing off in the milk supply Married.
