HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1005. ODELL HUNTERS RETURN LADEN WITH GAME By Koswell Shelley. (Well, East Hood River Valley, Sept. 20. Probably tbe most notable hunt in the history ot Odell wound up last Friday, the parties returning to the village Dear the close of day while the lust mellow rayi of tbe Ret ting sun were reflected from the Neil creek hills and baok to old Mount Defiance. Tbe quiet of the village whs suddenly broken by the music of cow bells on tbe leaders of tbe 4-horse team that came lumbering down the hill laden with deer aud bear meat. Amid the jingling of tbe bells, the xouud of the hunter's born, the bay ing of tbe hound and the hoarse yells of tbe hunters, the crack of tbe driv er's whip, tbe people flocked to the four corners of Odell to see the tro phies of the chase. Ou top the load was tbe carcass of a black bear, while underneath the canvass was the dead carcasses of four young deer. Tbe party was made up of Ait Khodes, Jake Lery, Mr. Dimlck and iiort lloardman. Tbe latter had grub titaked the crowd, tbe other fellows thinking they would of course have to furnish llert with venison steaks, but when the record was made up it was learned that llert killed bis part of the deer with tbe bear to the good. Tbe spoils were soon divided and as night came on, through the twilight, we could see fust across the way tbe liunters skinning the doer. And as we sat we mused, and through the dim twilight memory took us back to those precious pioneer days of Oregon when the table was always supplied with wild game. Still we mused, and in tbe stillness of the hour and amid the darknosa these came the picture of a gun rack of velvety stag borns over the old fashioned rock fireplace, above its rude mantle under the flickering rays of light from tbe log tire; and with it we beard tbe faint distant strains of tbe music of the hunter's born, and the baying of the dogs hot on the trail, aud although nearly !0 years have passed all too swiftly by since then, yet they have gone uieket than has the recollection of those dear old days. Go again, boys, for its only a drill ot the past and it causes the blood in the old man's veins to flow more quickly. It is a renewal of youth, and proves a dispenser of petty trou bles. One day last week L. K. Clark and family of Pine drove called at the Lit tle White store. They were out show ing the valley to a party of friends from Illinois, consisting of William Harding and wife and their nephew, Ira Harding. They came West to visit tbe fair aud dropped off here for a visit with tbe Clurks. They go from here to Portland. Mr. Harding was delighted with tho valley. Mr. Clark bad been writing to him concerning it and hence lie was better prepared for what awaited him than most strangers witbiri our gates. Mr. Harding has no Intention of coming West to locate, Out is sanguine conoornl g tbe future of Oregon and Hood Hiver valley. Otto Ehrck and Henry Sclverkropp, who for two months have been absent in iiaker county, returned homo last Saturday. The boys bavo had a good time as well as a good jrb while away, and came home feeling fine. They brought with them qulto a number of canes made of Mansineta, a hardwood that takes on a high polish. They will join the crowd on Hood Kiver day and help to make the day merry. Horbert Morton returned last Satur day to Odell, aftor several months' ab sence on a visit to his old borne in Scotland. Mr. Morton's friends are glad of his return and greet bun most cordially. Ho has accepted a position in Portland with William McManter, llnaucial agent, with oiilces in the Worcestei building, and began bis work last Monday. We hope his bus iness may call him this way occasion ally, as he has many friends about Odell who will always be glad to see blm. School opened up last Monday un der most favorable auspices. The corps of teachers is as follows: S. J. Klines, principal; Miss Anna Thomp son, intermediate, and Miss Man Hull, primary, wbieh makes, a strong team, and if this school year is not a successful one we are safe in saying that it will not be the fault of the teachers. Witb the nicest modern school building in the valley, with every possible equipment for comfort aud convenience, and with competent instructors tbis should be a record breaking year for Odell. J. H. Shoemaker of the West Side passed through Odell recently, on bis way to the camp of tbe new ditch company. Mr. Shoemaker informs us that the preliminary work is going along satisfactorily. We congratulate these people on their prospect for wa ter next season. K. 1). Shelley of the Little White store Is spending a week at the fair. He will visit bis birthplace, Indepen dence, Polk county, while away and visit his brother Hugh, whom he has not seen for more than seven years. ! M. 1). Odell and wife are Fpendinga few days in Portland, taking in tbe fair. Professor Knnes, tbe new school teacher, anil family will soon move into theC. L. lingers house, just south of Odell. Miss Thompson aud Miss Hull are looking for house keeping rooms, a thing bard to find in Odell. And this! leads us to remark that some enter prising capitalist would do well to build a few neat cottages for rent. It would not only prove a money-making soheme, but we would gladly place his name upon the list of public bene" factors. It is a tact that every house in Odell is full, and with no hotel or boarding house, strangers find it bard ou shoe leather in rinding a place to ttop. So we say again that some one who can do blacksmithing and wood work repairing would do well to buy Harry Kemp out. Then in addition to shoe ing horses, feed them and furnish a place for people to feed. This is a long-felt want among the many things wanted at Odell. The quiet village of Odell is fast be coming famous, so we say to outsiders If you have never taken a peep nt Odell you have something to live for. Ho come along, get a lot with an eattt frontage 'ueath the beautiful pines. MM I A New CoatNukote Every one liken to have new and up-to-date articles. This is true in dress; ornaments, homes and property of all kinds, and especially is it true with the interior of our homes. We like, to see the furniture and fixtures new and bright; but wilh the best of care tliey will become dull or the styles will change and we find our furniture not as sat isfactory and wish we had something else. In place of discarding the old at great loss, why not buy a can of Nukote, the new up-to-date Finish and house beautifier. It stains and varnishes in one application, is easy to apply", and can be used on old or new work to cover up marred surfaces, or change the fin ish on any wood work, giving a brilliant and durable finish in any wood shade desired. It stains and finishes in one operation, imitates perfectly any hardwood, gives a high luster, or can be rubbed to a dull finish; enables one to change a dark piece of furniture to a light shade, or vice versa, and will dry in twenty-four hours. It is endorsed by leading painters and house decor ators. For sale by REIR . CASS, Smith IMock. Reliable Druggists.
