A'Bad Blow.
exposition

Last Saturday was a weather
breeder" The day had been one
of the most sultry of the season
hot and 1nuggy. After shutdown
sometime fierce wind came out of
the south-at some points appar-
emily from the southwest and at
others it seemed to blow from the
southeast. Tree foliage all over
the city shows the damaging result
of the wind but in the eastern part
of the city, along on line with
the Normal school building and
grounds the result of the terrible
force of the wind is most apparent.
Or the Normal grounds a dozen
big shade trees, mostly balsam frs,
were destroyed, many being liter
ally torn up by the roots. The fact
that there had been heavy rains,
rendering the ground very soft, fa-
cilitated the result of the uprooting.
Besides the tearing up of the trees
the wind damaged the school build
ing in respect to the big skylights,
and some lights were broken in 9TH
er windows. The two big skylights
on the roof, each about 10x14 feet
in dimension, were totally wrecked.
The wind seemed to smash one in
ward and the other outward. Be-
sides these effects of the wind at
the Normal school a barn of G.. G..
Iceberg was blown partly off its
foundations as was also one of
Patrick Mcmahon. A big cotton
wood tree in T. Hills lots was up,
rooted and numerous other big trees
were broken down and numerous
limbs were blown from trees all over
the city. The storm in many other
places was more disastrous to pro-
property than here. In Roberts
and Hammond it is reported some
buildings were demolished. The
storm must have damaged grain
badly as a heavy rain followed the
fierce wind.

VETERANS TELL
WAR STORIES

Candy post, G. A. R., had good
meeting Saturday. Several OF the COM
rades who were not present at former
meetings when the experience of the
boys on their enlistment in the army
was given, responded at this meeting.
NJ. P. Isenberg enlisted at Alexandria,
Pa. He told of his experience up to
and including the battle of Antietam,
when his brother John and seven
cousins of the name of Isenberg, were
killed. Himself was severely wounded
in this, one of the bloodiest battles Of
the war. He was then enlisted in the
PENNSYLVANIA Reserves, division of
troops that saw as much hard fighting
and service as any division in the Army
of the Potomac.
Harvey Cole served in the 14th Mich
igan, and it was his proud boast that,
as an orderly detailed upon his generals 8
staff, he witnessed the grand review of
the veteran armies of Grant and Sher-
man in the streets of Washington. His
description of that event was eloquently
portrayed, and the interested comrades
who took part in that grand review
could imagine themselves once more
marching down Pennsylvania avenue,
and hear the shouts OF the multitude
who cheered as they marched.
L. Henry enlisted in the 95th Illinois
at Bloomington. After campaigning
through Missouri with an occasional
skirmish with Prices veterans, his
regiment brought up at Springfield.
At Wilson's Greek, where General Lyon
fell, the Judge related that he stood
upon the battlefield without thought
OF fear, as calm and collected as at the
moment he gave his experience-but,
like the man who was with Grant, before
the war, the Judge stood upon the bat
tlefield of Wilson's Creek one year after
the battle had been fought. The Judge
rounded up his three years service in
the last battle of the war in Mahill har-
Dor, where he helped to capture J. L.
Gordon, a former citizen of Hood River.
The subjects for next meeting will be,
"Did you enlist to free the nigger?"
and ''How did you feel the first time
YOU were under fire?"

TO ADVERTISE

Hood River business men last week
subscribed $500 for writeup in the
Lewis and Clark Journal that will ad-
yertise Hood River, its advantages and
resources, to thousands of readers in
the Eastern states.
Kothe & Valley, advertising managers
for the Lewis and Clark Journal, the
official organ of the Lewis and Clark

soliciting the advertising subscriptions
from the business men. Before going
directly to the business houses, Messrs.
Kothe & Valley met with the directors
of the Hood River Commercial club,
before whom they laid their proposition,
which was discussed by the directors
and sanctioned by them.
The $500 is to pay for writeup OF the
city and valley which is to appear in
the November issue of the Journal,
that is to have a circulation of some
100000 copies, nearly all of which are
to be distributed at the St. Louis fair.
Statistics for the article have been pre-
pared by the secretary of the CONNER
cial club. 1t is the intention OF the
secretary to secure some photographs
of the apple exhibits this week for illus
trations to accompany the article.
If anyone in the town and country
has pictures of orchard and farm scenes
suitable for halftone cuts, the secretary
of the Commercial club would be pleased
to have them left at the Glacier office.
