Miss Langor, who has been boarding
at Mrs. Alma Howe's for some time
past, returned to her home at Sherwood,
Or, last week. Miss Langor came
to Hood River for the benefit OF her
health and went away feeling that her
stay here had not been in vain in that
respect.
The male quartette was out on Hood
River Heights, last Friday evening, and
gave beautiful serenade to some young
ladies, who wish TO thank them through
the Glacier, The young ladies stated
that they will be highly pleased to hear
the melodious voices OF the quartette
again in the nearfuture.
This morning Mrs. A. NJ. Kelsay and
family left The Dalles to take up their
abode at Hood River, where Mr.. Kelsay
is employed. Hood River people will
find this family great acquisition to
social circles, and their assistance in
every good work invaluable. At least
such they have proven themselves in
this city, which regrets to part with
them. m.-Chronicle.
DIR. and Mrs. Il. 7. earns and son
Clarence, who spent the past four
months at Phoenix, Arizona, arrived
home last Thursday. They spent very
pleasant winter in that land of sun
shine and come home in improved
health. Their many friends are glad to
see them back again in Hood River.
The doctor will be ready to take up his
work OF dentistry again in week or two.
Uncle Oliver Bartmess had bilious
attack, Saturday morning, while walk
ing in front Of the U, b. church. He
fell to the ground insensble and pass
ing carriage took him home. In falling
he struck the sidewalk or fence in such
way as to give him black eye, and he
also received an ugly cut on his hand.
He regained his senses when taken in
the carriage. Monday he was down
town as usual but said he felt somewhat
like Corbett is supposed to feel when
knocked out by superior force in the
prize ring.
Work on the big irrigating ditch has
progressed TO that point that water can
be turned in at any time it Is needed,
after Sunday next. III the showers con-
tinue more time will be used in putting
the ditch in order before any water is
turned in, but all danger of loss to the
berry and other early crops is past.
When the job is finished it is estimated
that about so per cent more water will
come through the main ditch, and the
system OF laterals has been enlarged and
repaired until there is ample capacity
for distributing the water. A force OF
from so to 75 men and a number of
teams have engaged in the work Of re-
building and repairing for several weeks.
Albert Koplin, son OF Frankton's
"Isaac Walton" Sam Koplin, is Wis
iting his father and trying his hand at
trout fishing. We always thought
Sam could catch any fish in the water
that had mouth enough to take bait,
but it seems his son, who has one hand
laid up with very sore finger, is able
to give his father pointers with the
other hand in the art OF enticing the
fnny tribe from their hiding places.
Mr.. Koplin, junior, is member Of a
troupe Of acrobats who are artists in
their line and we hope they may find it
to their interest TO play Hood River.
Our city is not so large as some, but our
people never fail to fill our opera house
for a first class troupe like Mr.. Koplin's.
