It will be loaded ou scows aud shipped to Mr. Thorn seu 's lumber yard at The Dalles. Last year they cut UUO.UUU feet at their Dukes Valley mill and this year '200, 000 feet, which will i.be .shipped to their Dalles yard. The bulk of this lumber was lrom Mr. Thomson's own laud, which he is clearing preparatory to setting to apples in the spring, lie expects to have 40 acres ready for oi chard next year. I'.

This year a hay spreader and loud oi li being used, with good re suits. The unimproved laud will be cleared gradually each year, and set to apples. Our One Subscriber. The Optimist went to press with its llrst issue the proud possessor of a paid subscriber just one! and we got hni) by a "fluke," or under false pre tenses, or by a trick. He did not come out in the open an put up bis ouo-tifty like a man. Our one paid-up reader was lion. E. Li. Smith, that young pioneer, that frisky, brainy and always mak ing good chap from Hood Kivei, or rather "of" Hood Kiver. He is nevei "from" there save in substance his mind is like a clock, always ticking, ticking , ticking the praises of the lit tle village to our westward. The editor was down there a week or two ago aud it was raining like sin. 'The water was coming down in streams. Ho we were wearing what is sometimes called a "slicker", and K L. sidled up to us and poked a plunk and a half plunk iuto our southeast hlirki'r pocket. He did it furtively, treacherously, with malice afore thoughtwe might almost say oorrupt and with intent to deceive. And if it was not a felony it certainly was a misdemeanor. Aud where is that plunk and a half now? Where are the rain-diops that fell that day? Where are the mists that overshadowed Hood and envel oped Adams on that day of ill omen? Ask the "perscription" clerks of the Hood River drug stores if they know anything about it, aud if not why not aud wherefore. Can it be that Smith's plunk and a half went to further per fume a tippling topen's tainted breath? Smith's? No; we mean bis plunk aud a half, not his breath, for he knoweth not the tippler's joy, never felt the gentle, soothing, endearing effects of a Hood Kiver "perscription". Wo expect to huve other subscribers thousands of them. We could have had many paid-up names ou our books now, but such was not our way of be ginning. J! it as long as the Optimist lives we will never forget our distinguished Hood River friend, our sole and only subscriber, aud will also remember that we put his plunk and a half to better use than he would have put it to had he not forced it upon a too conllding, guileless young man. Op timist. Hestilt of lteckles Driving. Sunday J. E. Stoll was riding a horse iuto the city, and when turning the comer at the ball grounds was ruu iuto by two young men driving iu a buggy, aud bis horse killed. It ap pears that the young men were driv ing vory fast and yelling. As Mr. Stolle came around the corner tbey gave a whoop, and Stolle's horse shy ing at a telephone pole aud frightened tit tho noise, jumped in front of the rapidly approaching vehiole. lbe shaft of the buggy et uck the borse in the ribs, running them half through the body of the horse, from the ef fects of which it died soon after. Mr. Stole has placed the matter in the bauds of Attorney HarUig, who de mands payment for the horse, and un less settlement is made, will com mence suit against the reckless driv ers. t'aplnreil an Offleoand a Medal.

Hubbard Bowman and Q oldie Hall were united In the bonds of matri mony by Rev. Troy Shelley, Saturday afternoon, at Judge Prathet'i oflioe. Ibe contracting parties are from Mollalla, Ore , and bate been picking strawberries iu the Hllev, tbe groom coming here with Mrs. "Nettie Hall and her children, among whom was the bride. The exhiliratiug mountain air, together wit the beautiful aceu ery aud pleasures of camp life made the young couple an easy victim ot Cupid's dart, and a friendly acquaint ance which existed at their borne in the sleepy Willamette valley ripened iu',0 love iu the seductive glades of the beautiful Hood River valley. Tbe entrancing view of the snow-capped moutaius while resting under tbe snaue or giant pine and fir iu camp, after the heat aud toil of tbe day. ou,iohb mo namest Heart, and It is nttie wonder that the young couple could not resist its Influence. They were conteut with life and happy with the present, without thought for the morrow, until tbe strawberries bad ceased ripening and plans were being made for tbe return to the monotonous hum-drum of every uay me on me Willamette. Mr. How- man had concluded to remain here for the summer at least, aud tbe thought of separation from his heart's desire was intolerable. Tbey decided to weL i Saturday all parties came to town and Judge Pratber taken into tbelr confidence. A. C. Buok was per suaded to go to The Dalles for a iioense, and be made tbe trip and came back on tbe first train with tbe uocument. Kev. Troy SCelley was the first clergyman on tbe ground, and with the simple and solemn rites of the church the happy couple were made man aud wife. V Mr. and Mrs. bowman will be resi deuts of tbe vallev for the summer at least. Mr. Bowman bas secured work on the irrigating ditch in tbe Cranner district. The mother aud sisters of the bride left Monday for their borne at Mollalla. Went Over the Falls. Tbe two men, Joseph Melmine, an engineer In the employ of Parsons, Boomer & Wilson, contractors on tbe north bank grade, and a fellow labor er whose name is unknown, attemptea to cross the Columb'a near Celilo 1 n small boat, and by tbe breaking of an oar they went adriit in tbe swift cur rent and were utterly powerless to help them. Attempts were made to trow lines to tbe unfortunate men in tbe boat, but tbey were too far from shore ;aud ,the current was too swift there to attempt to launch a boat. Tbe frail boat in whlob tbe two men were sent to thier death was dashed to pieces after capsizing. Neither of tbe coipses have yet been recovered. James says the men, after making every possible effort with one remain ing oar to steer to the bank, stood up right in the boat and met tbelr fate bravely. When tbey were drawn into tbe seething waters which poor over the precipice at Celilo, tbe boat danoed like an eggshell, both men were Ditched headlong into tbe cur rent and the boat was split from end to end by striking a boulder. Noth ing was seen of either of the men af ter they were plunged into tbe nar row channel above tbe falls. Rail and Bat.

Hood River was treated to the first livo oiroul of tbe season Friday, when linrch & Reese Ditched tbier tents on the grounds just nortb of tbe depot. They arrived in a special train of eight cars, and bad a veiy fair aggre gation ot horses, with a few camels and animals. A short Darade was Riven, tbe grades here proving almost too muob for tbe small ponies, and after a torn around the business street, tbey went hank to the show srounds. Toe at tendance was fair, and a very credita ble performance was given, r Tbe main part of tbe show was the trained ponies and dogs. Tbe ponies executed military drill by command that would do credit to a drill com pany, and were made to go througn all sorts of maneuvers. The dogs were also well trained, climbing ladders, making bigb jumps, dancing, turning summersaults, walking tbe tight rope, etc Trained monkeys also added to tbe performance, and a trained goat did several stunts worthy of an athe lete, such as walking tbe tight rope, bareback riding, etc. Altogether, the snow gave general satisfaction, aud should they evei give a return performance in Hood Kiver, will be linerany pairuuizeu.
