ONE CAUSE or ILLNESS.
Ridicuious Fada That Spring From a

A famous physician upon being asked

were healthier in mind and body for
their sublime Indifference, and il we

CONTRACTS FOR
BOXES AT &c

Apple boxes will be made this veal
for 81 cents box to the grower. The
committee of three appointed at the
applegrowers' mass meeting two weeks
ago got down to work with the result
that the growers are signing con-
tracts with the Davenport Brothers
Lumber company for apple boxes at 81
cents each.
To those who paid II cents last year
this will mean a big savng-23 cents ON
the box or $25 on the thousand The
agreement stipulates that the grower
shall purchase all his apple boxes from
the Davenport Bros, and that the lum-
Der company shall sell for not less than
ten Gets box to anyone not signing the
contract.
Already over $4,000 boxes have been
contracted for, including majority of
the growers in the valley, says Mr. Kel-
say of the Davenport Bros. Lumber
company, The company will expend
$4,000 in box factory plant, which will
be located at Belmont or on the railroad
track at Ruthton. In either event the
company agrees to deliver the boxes to
the growers in the city of Hood River.
Frank Davenport says he may locate
the factory in town provided can get
electric power in time. The company
would prefer to locate the factory in the
city if power can be had. This would
mean another payroll for Hood River.
Those comprising the committee who
arranged the deal with the Davenport
Bros. Lumber company were Messrs.
Shoemaker S aten and Porter.

find FEASIBLE
GRADE FOR ROAD

A Glacier reporter called on w. H.
Eccles, general manager of the Oregon
Lumber company, and made inquiry as
to progress being made with the pro
posed railroad mp Hood river.
"0ur engineers have made a pretty
thorough examination up the East Side
of Hood river for distance of about six
miles," replied Mr.. Eccles, "and while
grades are not entirely satisfactory, a
railroad up there is notan impossibiity.
1t is our intention" continued Mr.
Eccles, "to survey a line on the West
Side, which, from hurried eXamina-
tions, looks pretty good.
"The line would be shorter by at least
two miles If built on the West Side.
That, however, might not be induce
ment enough to put it there. Much de-
pends on the people as to rights of way.
So far, we have been given great deal
of encouragement, many of the property
owners assuring us that they would
gladly give the right of way if we would
only build the road.
eyes, we think this the most prac-
tical solution of the problem of getting
logs to our mill, and lots of them. At
Baker City we haul logs more than
twice this distance and do a very salts
factory business there.
"We have at this time about eleven
million feet of logs in the river and could
have the road in operation and be deiv-
ering all the logs we need to the mill by
the time those now in the river are cut.
We are logging at this time and shall
continue to do so until after the spring

STRIKES ROCK And

Special to the Glacier.

Special to the Glacier.
Stevenson, Wash, Jan. 10.-The
steamer Dalles City struck a rock this
noon about a mile and half above
Stevenson and lies now badly wrecked
vessel, with her pilot house entirely
submerged in the water
The captain was at dinner and the
mate at the wheel, Immediately on
learning something was wrong, the cap
tain rushed to the pilot house and
started the steamer toward the shore.
By this means the passengers were
saved and most of the freight kept out
of the water. The hull is reported
ripped open from stem to stern.
The rock causing the damage lies in a
channel unused by the deep-draft boats,
but was considered safe for lighter
steamers. The Regulator was in the
locks at the time, ,and Immediately came
to the assistance Of the crippled steam
er, The passengers had been safely
landed on the Washington shore, and
from there were taken to Cascade
Locks.
A large number of horses and a big
load of freight were aboard, but by
moving the same to the bow of the
steamer, but little of it was seriously
damaged.
When the steamer struck the rock,
the passengers were panic stricken, and
but lor the cool work of the officers
there would have been serious results.

COMPLETING WORK
ON RAILROAD YARDS

The O. R. & N. is spending not little
money in greatly improving the yards
at this point. The long-needed improve
ments, including the rearrangement
and enlargement of the depot, laying
new tracks, building of a new freight
depot, moving the section houses, etc.
will be completed soon.
The depot, when finished, will be one
of the neatest and best arranged of
any along the line. The platform will
be rebuilt and extended 100 feet fur
ther west.
Two new spurs have been laid, one to
the new Hood River Touring mill and
one to Stranahan & Bagley's new
warehouse. The berry track has been
extended some two hundred feet, now
connecting with new team track which
has been put in below the freight depot,
and the old team track added to the
passing track.
Extra gangs are pushing the work
along as rapidly as possible. The main
line and adjoining tracks will be raised
and reballasted. When this work is
finished, the depot painted and the
yards dressed down with gravel ballast,
the yards here will be considerably
improved in appearance, which will add
greatly to the already most picturesque
locality Of the scenic portion of the o.
r. &. n line.

FIGURES SHOW
ClTY'S GROWTH

The 10 receipts of the Hood Rive
post office were $ll9S 39more than those
for 1908 This is an increase Of 22.5 per
cent. The total figures for 1904 are
$65662l those for the preceding year,
$5G67 80.
During the year 1904 thee ,wHs X
pended within the city Limits of Hood
River $l6j. .705 for improv, ments in the
way Of brick blocks, new hotels fine
residences and other buildings. These
figures were gathered list week when
the Glacier man made lis annual can
vass for the citys census.
1t is estimated that the amount Of
improvements made in the valley, if
gathered up, would amount to sum in
excess of that for the city. Hood River
has made no pretense OF boom, but
the figures show very gratifying ad-
vancement.
As published last week, the popula-
ton of Hood River is 1881, an increase
of 375 over the same date IL months
ago. On percentage basis this is an
increase of over 265. Few cities in Ore
gon can show better figures for increase
of population and postal receipts during
the year 1904

METHODIST CHURCH
FOR Pine GROVE

The Methodists of Pine GROVE district
are planning to build church this
spring, says Rev. w. c. Evans. Dawes
Divers bequeathed $1,000 to the church
at Pine Grove, and with this as a nu-
cleus for building fund it is thought
that a very substantial building can be
erected. The Methodists have a strong
congregation in the Pine Grove district,
and deserve a better meeting place than
their present structure.
The revival services in the Methodist
church in this city ended last week with
the result that 20 additional members
have been secured. Pastor Evans is
well pleased with the work. He was
assisted by two lay evangelists from
California, Colburn and Brymer, who
are now conducting special meetings at
Pine Grove.

church in Hood River now numbers

what has been termed one OF the very
best and most attractive exhibits in the
palace of horticulture.
'By this shipment we were enabled
to make an exhibit with which we Sc
cured two grand prizes, one for quality
and quantity and one for arrangement.
