HOOD RIVEXl GLACIER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1905. LUMBLR MILL TO BE SHUT DOWN Good pioRresa it) being made on the Mount Hood linilrnad nnd the pil ing for the tri'wtle 1h conipluted. The fnUe work for the hridKO Hcro Hood Kivnr is lioing constructed and the contractors expect to have thia Btrno ture completed by December 1. Only a very uhort section of the roadbed re main to be built to connect the bridge with tho portion already con structed and the entire road will then be ready for grading and laying the railu. Work oil the new mill of the lumber company situated at the termluni of tbe railroad ia being pusneu lorwara rapidly and when it in completed the mill here will probably becloxed down and tbe force of men moved to that point: It was the intention of the company to build a large boarding houBe this wiuter for the 201) or iiOO men who will be employed there, but it was decided to dnlay its construe; tion until spring on aosouut or trie fact that tbo rainy geoBon, which in near at hand will make tbe roads In tbut part of the country almost Im putable. It is said that ouUldo parties are looking for a location in that neigh borhood for building a hotel witb a saloon attachment and that a strong fight will be made there for licence next spring. Farewell Reception to Iter. ( hambers. Rev. Mr. Chamber, who founded 8t. Marks Episcopal Mission in this olty,wa tendered a furewell reception at the pleaxaut home of Mr. and Mr Del Hand on the bill Saturday even ing by tbe Ladies' Onlid. Mr. Cham bers is succeeded by the Kot. II. 11. Barnes, who will be here some time this week. The reception was well attended by the parishioners of the church and a very plimeHiit overling was spent. The guests were, entertained witb music and with reminiscences of Mr. Cham ber's experiences as a nilsisouary in different parts of the western country. After a dainty lunch bad been served, Mrs. L. Clark arose and, ad dressing Mr. Chambers, said that in behalf of tbe ladiea of the guild, she wished to present him with a small token as a remem brace of the regard and esteem in which he was hold by tbe mom hers ot St. Marks church. It was impossible, she said, for bor to express just how grateful they felt toward him. Bhe then handed him s very handsomely mounted silver match box. Mr. Chambers was taken by surprise and said be gave up his charge in Hood Kiver witb deep regret, hut that he was forced to do so as be felt that his duty for the present was in an other direct I "u. He would treasure the match box very highly and eveiy time he took it out to Jigiit bis cigar or pipe he would think of Hood Kiver and oi tue pleasant auHomuuous mat had exiHtod between bimeif and tbe mointiors ot the church, and thut he hoped sometime to renew those associ ations. Sunday ho held two services in the church, and Monday left town to vis it a mission across the river in Wash ington, Strawberry Failures In Wlsconnln. Every one knows that varieties oi Btrawhorrios behave very dlilereutly In diiferent parts of the county, and thut one man's experience will not lie that of another grower elsewhere. Jvot withstanding this, reports of behavior of varieties are interesting ana some times helpful. Tim following report by Ueorge J. Kellogg of Wisconsin of some of the varieties which failed with him will be iiitereting, It Is taken from the Indiana Farmer: , Cameron's Early Not satisfactory, small and not very early. Challenge Sot an enormous orop of fruit, but did not mature a berry. Sutherland Catalogue says "largo, delicious, productive." After three years trial, it is small and unproduc tive. Uncle Sam Small, light in color and worthless. Oom raulCatalogiie says "six filled a quart box." That may have been when only ono berry was allowed on a plant, but in hedge row or mat ted row. It is a worthless variety. Midnight After three years' trial, both In hedge and half matted rows, it lost its foliRge this season and is worthless. Velvet At a cost of three dollars per dozen, did fairly well the first sea son, but the lust two it has lott its vigor and foliage, and while 1 shall pet it another year, it is a failure. Monitor Catalogue says, "deep red;" it is a poor yellow and worth Wild Woudor lioBts them all as a ' humbug. It came at one dollar a plant, promising as large as hulled mack walnuts, as sweet as the wild strawberry, as productive as any known variety aud vigorous enough to run out white clover and June grass. After two years of petting, this year is my first crop. It took two hundred beirios to till a nuurt. They are shaped like the wild vtruw berry, but not as good as Jessie or Warilold in ilavor. They are a ram pant grower and productive of so small a berry they are not worth the picking, when other berries are plenty. This is my experience with these varieties. Will Kon ('eminence Work, City Enginoer Henderson has been engaged during tin past week in get ting levels for the new sower and the f preparatory work is going along nioe y. Engineer Kay aud Elmer Kami of the Sewer committee went over tbe assessment rolls recently and Mr. Kay reports that the amounts checked up correctly.

Voung Shannon is a cousin of E. A. Norton of this city whore he baa been visiting for the past mouth. Mr. Shaunon expressed great praise for Hood River, lie lias traveled over quite a bit of the Western territory and says of all the country he bad sen, Hood River valley is the finest yet; from Mount Hood to the Cojuui- biu river is like a picture be had of times imagined, yet never realized until be came to tliia place, witb its tine mountain scenery, Hue fruit sul vegetables. Before starting for heme Mi. Biiannon visited J. M. Hollo well's garden and procured tome fine samples to show to bis friends in the oat. Mr. Shaniion foru.ed quite a circle of friends during his shoit stay in Hood River. He alto pave his name to the Glacier editor, that means he aims to to keep posted about tbe Hood Riverite, which is perfectly correct, for Hood River valley is surely the garden spot of Oregon. His many warm friends here wish him a safe journey to his borne aud loved ones also a quick return to Hood River, where we would be glad to ha.t him remain. We need more jil t such enorgetio young me i.intng us. BY THE WAY It is very iutorextin ,' to kiss a girl before you get ready. Most people's remedy for di iug what tbey oughtn't to do is to du it over again. It is hardly ever of any use to try to convince a woman by showing her the reasons for it. A girl can stand having the weather make her feet cold If it gives ber a nice rosy complexion. A man wants to drink to celebrate the arrival of tbe first child and to console bim for the ai rival of tbe fifth one. A resident of liolilendalo tried to light tbe tire with wlint be thought wus kerosene It proved, however, to be gasoline, and the wonder is that h.i has since benzine. It is a wonder that tbo gentlemun who wrote up tbe football game foi The Dalles Chronicle did not expire in an ecstasy of joy. One more vic tory and it will be all olf with bim. If you intend to olope, don't go to Multnomah county. The hard heart ed county clerk of that county has decided that tbe blushing bride-to-be must be a resident of Multnomah county in order to seoure a marriage license there. A debating society bus been formed In White Salmon composed of mout hers of both sexes. That the debates will be spirited goes without saying, for the members of the gontler sex may always be depended upon to take the negative. The indictment of a uumbor oi prominent citizens of Lewiston foi complicity in laud frauds is being watched witb interest by many people acquainted with some of tho indicted persons, says the Walla Walla Union.

It is reported tho next morning after the oiler was n.mlo three young men were seen roosting ou the fence at six o'clock, and by coven all the boys of tin school and two of tbe directors bad put in their appearance. I notice thht several papers in this section are willing to give clubbing rates. Now I kuow several people that ought to be clubbed, x Haven' got the money to have it done myself, but if this paragraph should happen to strike tho eye of any one who has 1 wish they would come lu ana see nie. Of course I don't believe in clubbing, but still if I can have it done cheap without anybody knowing It, why thut will be all right. A nearby editor has come to the conclusion that people who desire "puffs" in his paper may pay for them, and established the following schedule of prices: For telling the nublio that a man Is a successful citi zen when everybody knows that ho Is as lazy as a mule, tl.7o; referring to a deceased citizen as one who 1 mourned by the entire comma ilty. when he knew be would only be missed by the poker playe' s and crap shoot oi s, SI. 10; referring to some gallivat lug female as au estimable woman wh.im it was a pleasure to meet, when the business men iu towu would rather e the devil, boms, hoofs and all, t linn to see her coming toward them, i.ao.

E. L. Smith showed the Ulacier man a specimen of the seedless apple Sat urday. It was not very much of an apple. Id fact it looked as though it not only did not contain seeds, but did not oontain anything else. As compared to a fine Spitzeuberg or Newtown, it resembled more a soft boiled egg that had been thrown off the top of Mount Hood. There may bo a future for the Beedless apple, but at present it is an unkuown quan tity. W'H Stay In Hood Itiver.
