Dowd has the con tract for transporting school children of the district and he resumed hauling the youna8tera of his section to Parkdale Friday. I'nahle to receive narwr. the family was supplied with a kind of bulletin news bv Hood River friends. Clogged storm sewers on Oak street at the Paris Fair corner last week made it almost necessary for pedes trians to rail for a ferry. Many a dainty miss and matron incurred wet feet in crossing at the point. The wa ter waa a foot deep at some of the lowest points on the paving. Hood River seemed very badly wor ried Wednesday of last week, when the flood waters of Hood river began to lap around the top surface of an island formed by the "biling" water just be low the Mt. Hood line's bridge south of the city. An old hobo had settled himself for a prolonged stay, appar ently, on the wooded point, whic h m become his island. The rapid rise of the river alarmed authorities, and City Marshal Hart and deputies investigat ed. The point had been reached, how ever, when nothing could be done. No one dared try to reach the island in a boat, because of the swiftness of the water and the burden of drift and de bris of logs carried. The old Robinson Crusoe, however, seemed not in the least worried. He walked around calmly for a while, watching the crowd that was pondering over possihle means of rescuing him. He did not seem to want to be rescued. He soon disap peared, presumably retiring to the se clusion of his shack. It was feared that he might have to take to a tree in the night, but the chinook ceased to blow and the river began falling about dark. Indicative of how communities are sometimes stirred by rumors that grow into huge and startling stories as they travel from one vivid imagination to another, the story progressed widely here last week, during the Hood stage of the Hood river, that the wrecks of two auotmobiles had been seen floating down the stream. This is how the story started. Ia gar Franz had just returned from a visit to the Hood. He and other men had been interested in watching the graceful antics of a pair of otters, probably driven from their winter re treat by the freshet. "1 have never seen such a sight ai these two oilers ftoaiing down the river," or some such remark as this was dropped by Mr. Franz, in his dis cussion of the flood. A receptive ear turned Totters into autos. Pretty soon ' the reporters of the wrecks were al most ahle to give the model anil make o' the machine". Amateur detective minds got busy with deductions, and before the big story had ended it was derided that the cars were probably lilted irom caches, where they hail been hidden by thieves, by the winter's Hood waters. An incident of last week's flool, a miniature representation Of the force and erosion that eaured the gigantic i upheaval on the -outh side of Mount Hood last summer giving rise to the eruption scare, pent up storm waters i tore out about 30 feet of the basement concrete retaining wall heneath a side ' walk and undermined a -eetion of the concrete paving on Cascade avenue. The damage occurred at a point where I an excavation was made feveral years ago by H. F. Davidson for a projected building. The water, it is thought, I found its way under the pavement, a i hlock or more up the street on a con siderably higher level, through a de ; faction in a storm sewer. The flood waters cracked the base merit wall of the Hood River garage, flooding the concern's machine shot). ! The imrtion of the undermined paving has boon fenced oil by city authorities, ! for fear that a heavy motor truck may cause a cave-in. W. Ross Winans, of Dee, who has arrived in the city following the snow storm, reports that folk of his neigh horhnod think they sighted the light of St. Elmo there lat week just after the memorable snowstorm. The phan tom light, Mr. Winans said, appeared among the tree tops just below the Devil's Punch Row I. The Dee rancher states that he saw a similar phenom enon a numher of years ago, while on a hunting expedition. Then, he de dares, an armistice seemed to have beta declared among all the animals of the forests, and a score of beasts ami ' birds of all - eiea were grouped an nd looking at the weird light. ' 1 reported my peculiar experi ence," says Mr. Winans, "to old Jack Coon, an Indian fru-nd, who said the light was a cultus tomanowas, bad omen. Jack declared the animals we saw were not real hut phantoms of denizens of the wilds fallen during pHst ages." Children of the Pine Grove district formed an exception to the general rule of Hood River humanity and ex pressed regri l ot. seeing the chinook and warm rains eat away the snow blanket of last week. Going to school and coming home had heeome a series of picnics for tSM Pine Grove school children, a raw attend Hood River high school.
