Flour mill for Hood River.

The regular meeting of the Hassalo
Commercial club was held Tuesday
evening with fair attendance. The
principal business of the evening was
the discussion of Touring mill project
presented to the meeting by John p.
Aplin of COrnelious, Or Mr.. Aplin off
cred to put in a l00-barrel mill and
have the same in operation by March,
1905, provided the citizens OF Hood
River would subscribe for $4,000 in
stock. His plans were not fully decided
upon or ready to submit to the public,
and some discussion was had upon the
subject, and it was finally decided to
appoint committee to go with Mr.. Ap-
lin and solicit subscriptions. The list
was headed last night with $500 from
the Hood River Development Co. and
$1,000 from W. II. Eccles. Up to last
night about $4,000 had been raised, with
the prospect Of raising the entire
amount,

BERRIES GO TO
MASSACHUSETTS

Two cars of Hood River strawberries
went all the way to Massachusetts,, says
II. F. Davidson of the Davidson Fruit
Co. The cars we're sent from here to
Omaha, but finding full market there,
they we're sent on to Chicago. Meeting
the same market conditions there the
fruit was sent on to Massachusetts,. 1t
may seem almost incredible, but Mr..
Davidson says that reports have come
in that one Of the cars reached there in
good shape. The second car, which was
longer on the road, probably did not fare
30 well, though no report has been re-
ceived of its condition upon arrival.
Strawberry returns are coming rather
slowly, so Mr.. Davidson informs the
Glacier.
The season is failing fast. A few hot
days cut down the quality of the noun
tain berries and made the fruit small.
With other fruit coming into the mark
ct, there is now little demand for straw
berries. People have had enough OF the
luscious strawberries, and are turning to
raspberries, blackberries, and other
summer fruits.

had been received, Frank Morrison and
James Davis agreeing to do the work for
5000. Councilman Early stated that
Mr.. Brown, who is doing work for the
county road on the East Side, had talk
ed with him about the road to the boat
landing, and he had virtually agreed to
do the grading from the wagon bridge
along the bank of Hood river and under
the railroad bridge and through the cut
beyond for $3.50. The matter was left
to the street committee with full power
to act.
Councilman Prather of the sewer com
mittee reported that no word had been
received from Mr.. Holmes about the
right Of way which he had promised to
grant the city. Mr.. Holmes promised
two weeks ago to attend to this matter,
but nothing has come of his promise.
Those present at the council meeting
were Mayor Blowers, Councilmen Early,
Mayes, Bailey, Rand, Prather and Nc
Donald, Recorder Nickelsen, Marshal
Olinger, Street Commissioner Cunning
and Night Watchman Snyder.

FOURTH ENJOYED
IN HOOD RIVER

The wind blew great clouds Of dust
that filtered into everyhody's eyes and
through the crevices Of white dresses,
but the fervent patr otism of Hood
River people wasn't quelled by little
thing like that, Nobody complained.
| 1t was too Joyous an occasion. The
children enjoyed the fun and so did the
older folk. There were no tiresome
speeches to listen to, and the novelty OF
the burlesquc parade and comic games
and races were mirth-provoking for the
thousands who lined the streets Of the
city Monday morning.
There was splendid music. The
Hood River band can play along with
the best of them, and the Woodstock
military band added to the martial ap-
pearance of the occasion. The band
music was one of the nice features of the
celebration. The concerts were well
rendered and enjoyed with wholesome
relish.
Danger from fire precluded the dis |
charge OF fire crackers, and while Officer |
Olinger and his deputy, j. &. Snyder, |
were the only officers on duty, no one |
gave them any trouble. Young Amer
ica couldn't restrain his patriotism now
and then, and an occasional fire cracker
was discharged, but as u rule the BOYS |
behaved splendidly and the Fourth at
Hood River came and went without |
damage to life, limb or property.
The old civil war howitzer on the hill,
the property of Candy post, G. A. R.,
doomed a sunrise salute, with X. Nj,
Hunt rs gunner, At the beach in the
forenoon there were frequent discharges
)l dynamite, sufficient to delight the
sars OF the boys who considered it a
.ame Fourth without the destruction of
/ ton or two of powder.
II was truly glorious Fourth. There
never was such wholesome, whole
ouled observance Of the nations birth
lay in the little city on the Columbia.
felt good to know it was ,
uccess, and many were the congratula- |
ions heaped upon the committees who !
'ad the celebration in charge. People
new it would be a success, for Hood |
Iiver doesn't make anything else of 5
er attempts at good time, but they 1
ldn't expect such a successful success.
Everybody felt good and were glad they v
ere out to the celebration,
The whole town and country took ad- 4
antage of the holiday, Many people n
ent to Portland, Early on the morning
the Fourth, teams began making t,
lips to the forks of the river, where A
parties passed the day in the h
lol shade of the mountains. Mount n
ood celebrated. Yet with all the h
'unter attractions, there never was
rger crowd ON the streets Of the city. Il

went up to the 100 mark and above. In
Portland the weather bureau thermom-
eter went up to 9S, which is said to be
the warmest June day on record for
years. Wednesday night, the air east
Of the mountains became so rarefied
that the wind rushed in from the Pacific
ocean and the temperature soon went
down to comfortable mark again.
High winds continued the remainder OF
the week, but the discomforture OF a
little dust was considered better than
the excessive heat Of the first Of the
week.

park, where they saw the baseball game
between the Hood River nine and the
Indians from the Chemawa training
school.
Band music and burlesque parade
we're features Of the mornings celebra-
ton. The characters were all well
dressed, and possibly the difficulty the
judges experienced in selecting the
best sustained character caused them to
escape from their arduous duties by
granting first place to the bony old
horse who carried an advertisement for
Colonel o. B. Hartley, the we'll known
horse dealer. But it was too good a
buresque, il not Of the dealer, perhaps
his stock in trade. David Purser, as

d. A, Turner, 6S years old, was victor
in the old mems race.
AT the conclusion OF the burlesque
parade, the participants entered o free
for all race In which Edgar Button was
easily first.
The crowd then repaired to the water
front where the aquatic sports furnished
further amusement. A dozen or so
boys were on hand with tubs for the tub
race, but only two were successful in
keeping afi0at long enough to break
away from the starting line. William
Tucker completed the course and won
the S5 prize.
Two loggers scrambled aboard log
and put up some circus performing un-
til one went under and then the other.
The $40 prize went to Charley Foster.
In the afternoon the immense crowde
repaired to the ball grounds, wher-
they witnessed one Of the most sciens
titic exhibitions of baseball ever given
in Hood River. 1t looked like il was TO
he a scoreless game, but luck went with
the red skins. 1t was their game, 8 to |.
After the ball game, there was 100
yard dash in which Cyril Morrissett Of
the Chemawa Indians took first place.
Brooks and Sheets tied for second.
The broad and high jumps were easily

ley managed to get the crowd to spread
out far enough to give the pig and the
boys a show. X. M. Hunt let the pig
from box and the contest was on,
There was a rush, cloud of dust and
squeal. The next minute the judges
called foul and the piglet was given an
other try for his liberty. But Fred Ro-
pei was too quick, and with the pig for
his prize he left the grounds prepared to
enter the hog business.
The horse races on Lyman Smith ave.
