    HOCD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1005
FAMOUS COW FOR
THE STOCK SHOW
Special to the Glacier.
Exposition Li rounds, Portland, Sept.
13. Fair Queen, champion of man;
fairs, and, as a cow which baa nver
been beaten, entitled to rank us one
of the greatest show cows living, is
entered in the shorthorn class at the
stock show which is to be held at the
Lewis and Clark exposition from Sep
ts, nber 19 to 29. Fair Queen took
championship hot ois at the World's
fair at St. Louis lat year, and also at
tl.D International Live Stock Shows
htld at Chicago in 1903 and 1904 and
at the American Royal show at Kan
sas City in the same years. She is
the holder iilto of various premiums
won at leading state fairs all over the
country.
"In the shorthorn show the class of
cattle, will be the highest in the Unit
ed States," said M. D. Wisdom, live
stock superintendent at the exposi
tion. "It will be a show of great
quality and one that people cannot
atford to miss. The shorthorn show
in general will be equal to any show
ever held in America of this bieed of
cattle.
"In the Ilolstein class, "'continued
the superintendent, "the Hazelwood
Farm company of Spokane has entered
'20 bead of show stock chosen from 70
head which the company purchased in
Wisconsin. These are of the best of
the class to be found. They will com
pete against the world's champion
herd of the Fierce Land and Stock
company of California, a herd which
is without question the finest in the
v orld. The Pierce Laud and Stock
company imported 40 head from Hol
land last year and the bull that heads
the herd is one of the importation,
llo is considered the fluest bull of the
brod living today. Besides these two
herds, John B. Irvln of Wisconsin,
who won at St. Louis last year, and
P. A. Frakes of Oregon, who also
owns some St. Louis prize winners,
will show at the fair.
"In Jerseys there will be shown a
Hue and select herd from the Hazel
Fern farm owned by the W. S. Ladd
estate. This is one of the fluest herds
of Jerseys in the world, and the stock
sent to the show ring will be the very
fliiost specimens of the breed procur
able anywhere. In competition with
tho Hazel Fern herd will be the herd
of Dr. Still of Missouri, wnicn was
prominent among llrbt prize winners
lit St. Louis last year, and which has
1 eeu recuperated in size and merit,
llusides these two there will be anum
1 i-r of local herds of quality, includ
iuu those of Harry West. T). II. Loo
ney, A. C. Martin, B. Altman and
Atkinson Brothers, all of Oregon. In
sheep, swine and goats all the promin
eut breeds will be represented by the
II nest type of animals."
The sheds tor the stock snow, on
tho Government Peninsula at the ex
position, are Hearing completion,
Thov are of improved style, in every
way adapted to the purpose. Every
thing will be in readiness for the
stock show several days before Sep
tember 19. the opening day, and pros
pects are good for a remarkably large
attendance irom racino uoast states,

Sixty Per Cent of Wheat Crop.
The Dalles Chronicle.
About 00 per cent of the average
crop will bp the yield of wheat in
Wasco county this year. While last
year many acres averaged from 40 to
'i'l bushels and pne producer told us
of a good bushels now it is mo
ping from 12 to 20 bushejs a few
averaging between 30 and 35. Lack
of moisture is mostly responsible for
the deficit, spring sown grain gettiug
no moisture until the latter pait of
Juno. The price also is falling short
this year. At this date iu 1904, 75
cents a bushel was being paid; today
it, is 03 cents. Uuo reason for the
dec i ease in price is the fact that less
ja Icing exported.

to give a good old-fashioned reliable
treatment such as would be ministered

The following comments from The
Dalles Chronicle may as well be re
printed for the benefit of attendants
at tne local opera House :
There are always a few (we were
about to say idiots, but will refrain
because among such may be noticed
those who in every day affairs display
good sense) who invariably see some
thina decidedly funny in the most
thrilling climaxes of a play, aud to
the dismay of those who have been
waiting such a scene and appreciate
it, to say nothing of the aunoyauce of
actors, titter and laugu, or, worse,
make some audille remark. We can
readily understand how, when such
climaxes are in the hands of incomp
eteut actors, they are rediculou
euouuh to warrant such actions on
the part of a suffuiiug audience, but
with the requirements so well met as
were those last night, Ueie was pos
itivelv no excuse lor the levity iu
dultred in near the cloto of the final
climax.

EES SAMPLES AND
WANTS MORE PEARS
Fred Detz. who weut East last
spring to superintend tbe construction
of a large normal ecnooi Dunning at
Mayville, S. D., writes as follows
about tbe receipt of some Hood Kiver
apples and pears, sent to bim by Mr.
SchaU, bis son-in-law :
Mr. HctiaU sent me a dox oi nooa
River pears and a few Gravenstein ap
ples. Tbe pears were beauties not
only beauties, but delicious as well.
I distributed quite a number to some
of my old friends here and in every
case tbey caused exclamatons of sur
prise at the size aud beauty.
"Express cnarges on tne dox were
$3.50. Notwithstanding this exorbi
tant charge, Colonel Kobinson, upon
eoeiving three of tbem, sent an oraer
at ouoe to Hood River for a supply
for bis own use.
I enclose clippings in regard to
tbe fruit from both of our local pa
pers. You will notioe Brother Stew
art mentions only one pear. I after
wards took several in a small basket
intending to leave tbem at bis resi
dence. I mistook tbe house and
learned afterward that 1 left them at
Dr. Dupois. Well, it was "one" on
tbe editor, but tbey "done the work"
just the same.
"I learned today from a gentleman
just from Fargo that according to his
estimate over 80 per cent of the wheat
along the track is still uncut and will
undoubtedly be a total loss, xnis was
occasioned by tbe extremely wet sea
son. Just think ot riding in a train
through our immense wheat fields in

Fred Deitz. superintendent of con
struction of the new addition to the
Ncrmal school building, was distrib
uting a basketful of samples of a few
of the fruits raised on tbe fruit farm
of his son-in-law. Mr. Scball at Hood
Kiver, Oregon, last Satui day pears

with foui of the pears. They were

Origion of l!io Word Multnomah.
By Gecio li. Hi mo?.
The meaning of the word Multno
mah as is the ea.-e v. itb mauy other
Indian nan es i.- I niiily enveloped in
mystery, l ioni t.x best information
obtainable, bimcor, the word, as
low spelled, is u c i ruption of a word
that Indian ling;i;ts spell iu this

through Portland from the falls at
Oregon City to its junction with the
Columbia, the term Willamette refer

its sources.
The homo of the Multnomah Indi

Clackau:as iici extending to tbe Co
lumbia ea-t to the Cascade mountains,
and west to the summit of the hills
westward of Portland. So far as
known thete is not a single member

Old John." a d his "iUahee," or
country was about ten miles east of
Portland on what is now known
Columbia Slough." He died in
1893. and is believed to have been
fully 100 years old, aud perhaps a lit
tie over.
He remembered Lewis and Clark,
aud their party, and always claimed
that they gave him a little iron skillet
which is now In tbe custody of the
Historical Society. He was always a
friend of tbe whites in the early days
and manifested this friendship in uo
uncertain way when the Indian war
of 1855-56 ocoured. When the Indians
were driven away from Columbia
Slough be refused to go, saying be
would rather stay with the white peo
pie.

place, an adjoining farm, until a few
years before bis death when he was
taken to the county poor farm. He
boed potatoes at 50 cents a day and
tanned bides for a living until be be
came too old to work.
"Old John" was always a welcome
visitor at tne borne of tne early pion
eers, and he was well versed iu tbe
legends and folk-lore of bis tribe. It
is a matter of great re ret at tbiB time
that some one oould not have been
Interested forty 01 fifty years ago in
securing from bim everything he
could relate regarding tbe tradition
of bis people.
It is fitting since tbis was not done,
that tbe name Multnomah should be
