AN AUTUMN TRIP AROUND THE LOOP j Whether it be wintertime, tpring, : lummer or in the autumn, a trip ' around the "loop" in the Hood River ' valley ii filled with delight. But of j course in the dayi of Ma; and in the ; fall harvest season the orcbarda are i moat beautiful. It is not bard to find : those who declare that the joy of an ; afternoon's ride in tbe blossoming per ! iod cannot be beaten, while others j make the days of Indian summer their ' favorites. j Tbe plessures of a motor ride at this I season of the year through the' Hood 1 River valley are at least sufficient to nil the souls of any of us full of the ! joy of living. The atmosphere is really vibrant wtib a vigor that imparts itself ; to tne numan body, and yet the warm ; sunshine playa upon the roadways, seems to caress the sides of the brown, frost touched hillsides and shimmers on the red and russett apples. Tbe ad mixture of sunshine and frost are na ture's ingredients from which she brews a kind of atmospheric cocktail, a beverage that is intoxicating and yet one that the warmest adherent of prohibition policies would not dare to raise a protest against. Tbia sunshine anJ frost, of which the valley apple growers are so"proud plsces at once roses in the cheeks of men and women and a glow on the cheeks of the apple. But the motorist, as he spins over the treelined roada, drinks not only with his lungs but by the sense of vision as well. '1 he ripe apples hang everywhere. In every; orchard are lifted the ladders of pickers. The tree rows show boxes of fruit ready for the packing shed. These are pictures of industry and activity. And the homes of the orchardists are never more beautiful than in autumn. The feath ery blooms of asters may be seen, and dozens of different colored dahlias. While Hood Kiver can raise roses that will rival those of Portland, the Rose City, these flowers of the Indian sum mer grow superbly here. CANDY MADE FROM APPLE CIDER SYRUP RED DEATH OF WAR Tragic Fate of Maximilian at the Hands of the Mexicans. HIS PENALTY fOR FAILURE. The day may not be far away when, instead of maple syrup on our cakes in the morning we will eat with just as keen, or perhaps keener, relish the de licious syrup mude from apple cider. H. C. Gore, of Washington, D. C, an expert from the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, who arrived here the first of the month, is now busy completing the installation of apparatus to be used in an experiment of the new syrup on a commercial basis. Mr. Gore has been working on experiments of the same natuie for a number of years. He was here last year and succeeded in getting a product that was in every way satisfactory. The only test now remaining is the problem of proving whether the syrup can be made for a cost that will make possible its com mercial distribution. Mr. Gore thinks that the manufacture this year on a large scale will prove this possible. In such case the increasing quantities of low grade apples will find a profitable outlet. Last week C. J. Calkins, of the Hood River Apple Vinegar Company, where Mr. Gore has installed apparatus, exhi bited candy made by his daughter from the new syrup. The sweets were of excellent flavor. Mr. Gore also has a large lot of ma chinery ready for work at the old ware house of the Hood River Apple Grow ers Union. ELECTRIC HANGS AT TRACTIVE BULLETINS The Electric theatre last week placed at the entrance of the popular moving picture play house a set of attractive boards, from which to bulletin attrac tions being presented and those com-j ing. two ol the bill boards hang at the entrance and exit to the theater like doors. When the shows are on the boards are swung back against the wall. The Electric recently installed a new moving picture machine and an auoar atus for changing the alternating to a direct current. Make-up Man in Bad Mix-up In handling the slugs which make up tne lines in a newspaper, and in sep arating the various items, the make-up man sometimes gets the lines mixed up and they naturally read rather queer. as an illustration or what can happen, we cite the mix-up of the Bangor, Pa., News a few days ago when the printer got a wedding and an auction sale mixed up with the following results: "William Smith, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Smith, and Miss Lucy Anderson were disposed of at pubile auction at my farm one mile east, in the presence of 70 guests, including two mules and 12 head of cattle. "Rev. Jackson tied the nuptial knot for the parties, averaging 1,250 pounds on hoof. The bcautiul home of the bride was decorated with one sulky rake, one feed grinder and two sets of work harness, nearly new, and just be fore the ceremony was pronounced the Mendel and Sons wedding march was rendered by one milch cow, five years old, one JerseyVow and one sheep, who carrying a bunch of brido's roses in her hand, wus very beautiful. She wore one light spring wagon, two crates of apples, three racks of hay, one grind stone of mousseline de soie and trim imngs with about one hundred bushels of spuds. The bridal couple left yes terday on an extended trip. Terms, spot cash." Forest Notes As many as 72 different kinds of wood are used in the manufacture of umbrella handles, canes and whips in this country. Authentic records show that cinders, from a forest fire in the tree tops in northern Washington this fall, were carried a distance of 20 miles. According to the latest available fig ures, Pennsylvania stands fifth in the production of wood pulp and is second to West Virigina in the amount of slab and other sawmill waste used for tiuln- maine bihuub iiuru. The better wood engravings are made almost exclusively of boxwood, and the large blocks are made of small pieces glued together. The engraving is done across the end of the grain. Japanese wood prints, on the other hand, are made on lengthwise sections of cherry wood parallel to the grain. Throughout the national forests the rangera are posting the roads with per manent guide signs which tell distances and directions, especially at the forks and cross roads. The signs are usually put up in the winter when other work tends to be light. On some forests the rangers go on snowshoes, dragging loaded sleds, and nail the aignboads to the roadside trees. j TH Atonamant of Blood How It Waa ConsummaUd and How the VenaMnce of the Victor Waa Sat iofiod Coolness of th Unfortunate Prino. No more tragic Incident la recorded In history than the execution of Mail mumn. Half a century ago a younger brother of the Emperor Francis Joseph waa sent to ruie Mexico. Together with but wife, be ft upon tbe frail throne, even then tottering. How be failed la another story, but when he was taken prisoner be prepared himself for death too red death of war. In a volumo written some years ago Major John N. Kd wards pictures graph ically the closing hours of tbe tall. handsome prince who would be king follows: The morning broke fair and white In the aky, and at C:30 o'clock three car riage drew up In front of the main gat of tbe convent of Capuchins. Tbe bells rang iu all tbe steeples, there were soldiers everywhere, and' long lines of glittering steel that rose and fell in yet the soft, sweet hush of the morning. In the first carriage got Maximilian and Father Sorta, a priest In the sec ond carriage there came Mlramon and bis priest. In the third Mcjla and his. Then the solemn corteen atnrted All the people were In the street On tbe faces of the multitude there were evidences of genuine and unaffected sorrow. Some among the crowd lifted their hats aa the victims passed along, some turned away tbelr beads and wept, and some, even among the sol diers and amid the hostile ranks of the Liberals, fell uion their knees and wept Tbe place of surrender was to be the place of ciecutlon. Northwest of tbe city a mile or more tbe II111 of the Bells (El Cerro de las Campnnas) up reared itself. It was inclosed on three sides by 0,000 soldiers of all arms, leav ing the rear or uncovered side resting upon a wall. ' ' It was 7:30 o'clock when the car riages halted at the place of execution. Maximilian was thu first to alight lie stepped proudly down, took a handker chief from bis pocket and bis bnt from bis head and beckoned for one of his Mexican servants to approach. The man came. "Take these," the emperor said. "They are all I have to give." The faithful Indian took them, kissed them, cried over them, fell upon his knees a few moments In prayer to the good God for the good master and arose a hero. In front of the dead wall three cross es had been firmly embedded in the ground. On each Bide was a placard bearing the name of tbe victim to be immolated there. That upon the right was where the emperor was to be shot, that in the center was Mlramon, that upon tbe left for the grim old stoic and fighter Mejla. Maximilian walked firmly to his place. The three men embraced each other three times. To Mejia he said: "We will meet in heaven." Mejia bowed, smiled and laid his hand upon his heart To MirainoQ he Bald: "Brave men are respected by sover eigns. Teriult me to give you tbe place of boii'ir." As he said this he took Mlramon gen tly by tbe firm and led him to the cen ter cross, embracing lilm for the last time. Escobedo was not on the ground. An ald-de-camp, however, brought permis sion for each of the victims to deliver a farewell address. Tbe emperor spoke briefly. Mlramon drew from bis pocket a small pU e of paper and read. When Mlramon had ceased reading Maximilian placed his hand on his breast, threw up his head and cried iu a singuarly calm and penetrating voice, "Fire:" Eighteen muskets were discharged as one musket. Mejia and Miramon died instantly. Four bullets struck tbe em peror, three In the left and one in the right breast. Three of these bullets passed entirely through his body, com ing out high up on the left shoulder; the other remained embedded In the right lung. The emperor fell a little sideways and upon his right side, ex claiming almost gently and sadly: "Oh, hombre, hoinbre! Oh, man! Oh, man!" He was not yet dead. A soldier went tip close to him and fired Into his stomach. The emperor moved slightly as If still sensible to pain. Another came out of the flrlug party and, put ting the muzzle of bis musket up close to bis breast, shot him fairly through the heart. The tragedy was ended. Mexican vengeance was satisfied; the soul of the unfortunate prince was with its God, and until tbe judgment day the blood of one who was too young and too gentle to die will cry out from the ground even as the blood of Abel Sugar a Food. With the temperature C2 below nero Shackleton and his men, In their ant arctic exploration. In marching took two or three lumps of sugar each every two hours. Within ten minutes of eat ing these they could feel the heat go ing through their bodies. Life is not jest and amusement; life Is not even enjoyment Life Is bard labor. Turgenev. WOOD and COAL Slabs-Fir-Oak Agency for Genuine Rock Springs COAL A. C. Lofts PHONE 3464 Vote to Save Industrial Oregon VOTE "NO" 329 and "NO" 331 v The very life of the future manufacturing and industrial progress of " Oregon hinges upon the defeat of the so-calied "Water Front" bills, to be vot ed on Tuesday, November 3rd. So cunning and adroitly are these bills worded there is grave danger that many people will be deceived. If these measures become laws the result will be that the State will take title to the tidelands and submerged lands and will be prohibited from selling any of thesetonds. They can only be leased for docks. No more ship-yards, saw-mills,'canneries or other plants requiring access to deep water nothing but docks, docks, docks. Every citizen of Oregon wage earner, farmer, business man or wo man, wants tojprosper. These measures if enacted will throttle progress at the gate. Investors will shun Oregon. This means no work for the wage earner, nothing to pay the store-keeper with and therefore nothing to pass on to the farmer or producer. Let no one think these bills do not concern him. Before you go into the booth to vote, read 329 and 33 1 carefully. Talk to your neighbors about them. Oregon is rich in natural resources, but poor in development. What ; the State needs above everything else is outside money to come in and deve lop its resources. That means GOOD WAGES, PLENTY OF WORK, GOOD PRICES and GOOD TIMES. This' is not a political question; it concerns only the prosperity of Oregon and of you. Sr Give Progress and Good Time a helping hand by voting "NO" 329 and "NO" 331.
