It is the first time In forty yearn that
"appearance of real smoke" has been
noticed is hardly true, as similar
statements are made onoe or twice
year not only of Mt. Hood, but of
nearly overy other snow capped
mountain. Ihese rumors serve to
make nervous people uneasy, uud
when invoatigaled always prove to be
untrue. As a rule the appearance of
smoke is seldom seen In the iramedl

from a distance In talking to old
niouutaiueeis who are familiar wi
Mt. lloud, who have exploied it many
times, and who spend oousidei able
time iu its vicinity during the sum

"sinuke" seen is nothing more than
the raging of a blizzard over the St) OS
fields. A still bieozo in the valley

gone out of the beaten trail of the
mountain climbers and have peered
luto the old crater, claim that there
is a faint indication of vapor and
sometimes the smell ot fumes can be
detected from the dying embers of the
old volcano, but even at the mouth of
the crater it can hardly be detected
Iheie is uo indication that Mt. Hood
is awakening from her long sleep, but
the accumulation of her ice fields
would indicate that it is the sloop that
knows no awakening.

closed a deal for the bank for the
northwest corner of Oak and lliird
streets, now occupied by J. M. Harry

it is the intention of the bank to
elect a handsome two-etoiy brick
Luilding on the lot, although the de
tails have not been worked cut as jet.
The present quarters of the bank are
far to small to accommodate the grow
ing business, and it was thought best
at this time to senuic tne of the
best busiuets coiners in the city for
a future home, as well a making a
"ale and profitable Investment.
This insures the building of an
other fine business block in Hood
Kiver, and will mark the first removal
in that block of the wooden buildings
that have niBde a big lire risk in that
end or the town.

Much interest was taken in the new
stoam roller which arrived lueiday
from Portland, together with a load
grader, being the Hist of the county's
road machinery. An oil burner has
been purchased, but as it had not ar
rived from the east, a coal burner was
sent up from Portland tor uee until
the other arrives, although if tho ex
pense of burning coal is as cheap as

A rock ci usher is needed Tor the
building of permanent loads, but it
was not thought advisable In re r-

cannot purchase cvervthiiu at once.
