Heavy Rain Storm

One of the most severe rainstorms
that has occurred in the valley In a
number of years pqssed over Monday
afternoon. The rain came down in
sheets, accompanied with consider
able wind, and hail fell in places.
The water ran down the streets In
considerable volume, reminding East
erners of the rains in the middle
states. AS far as learned no damage
resulted of any consequence. 1t
hurt the days picking in the straw
berry patches to some extent. A few
leaky roofs around town let In some
water, the Masonic block suffering on
account of an accumulation of leaves
that had stopped up the cutters on
the roof, and considerable water
soaked into the lodge room and down
through to the floors.
The most serious damage in the city
was the caving in of the retaining wall
that was to hold the cement walk on
the Fourth street side of the:new Odd
Fellows block. The wall had been
finished, but was above the earth in
the roadway, and the lush of water
down the street settled in the loose
dirt behind the wall and soon caved 1t
into the excavation under the side
walk. Had the walk been completed
and the gutter made, it would have
stood the food all right. 1t will cause
some expense to the contractors to re-
build the wall, as we'll as delay the
laying of the walk.

That the interest in baseball Is
growing was evidenced last Sunday by
the 500 people who gathered at Col
umbia Park to witness the game be-
tween Dufur and Hood River. The
excursion train brought over 100 from
Dufur and other points, which, to-
gether with good turn out from
Hood River, crowded both grand
stand and bleachers.
The Hood River team had dOnned
for the first time their new uniforms
and as they marched to the music OF
the Hood River band from town to
the grounds, we're the recipients OF
many compliments. The suits are OF
a dark green, red stocking and red
caps with a big red apple on the right
and big ripe strawberry on the LETT
breast.
The game was exciting throughout,
but Hood River was more on dress
parade than in a mood fors playing
ball, while DuiuI came with the os-
tensible purpose of taking the starch
ont of Hcod Rivers new clothes
hich they did in a score Of II to 3.
Big red apples and big ripe straw6er-
ries are dazzling to the Hood River
eye, and pmJng SO many the nome
team failed to field the ball. This
is Row it happened to happen.
ILe game was without special ieat-
ures, except the wager between the
managers. Carey Ballard. OF Dufur,
let his Panama against Sen Fonts
high dicer on the game. Sen lost his
plug, but through the courtesy OF Mr.;
Ballard, was allowed to retain and
wear it, not as a mark of Ballard 8
generousity, but to remind Sen OF bis
defeat.
While Mr.. Fouts is to be com
mended for the taste and public spirit
displayed in designing the new uni
forms, it is generally regretted that
they we're the cause OF his looslng
title to his "shiny tile"
The next game will be on the home
grounds Sunday, between Hood River
and The Dalles and lovers OF the game
may feel assured there will ce some
thing doing on the diamond on that
date.

Meeting OF THE
COMMON COUNCIL

The adjourned meeting of the Com.
mon Council was held Thursday even
ing, with all present except Council
men Watt and Bailey.
City Engineer Henderson reported
that several monuments establishing
street grades had been disturbed by
the Electric Light Co. and the sewer
contractors, and that they should be
replaced at once. Mr. Henderson was
ordered to do the work, and the eX.
pense charged to the parties distuI b.
ing them.
The street committee reported that
tie bank at the end of Oak street was
caving off, owing to the excavations
made by the railroad company, and
that the company claimed right of E
way which would virtually shut I'D
the street. From the records it ap.
pears that the city owns full street
both on Oak street and Front street,
and the street committee we're ordered
to notify the rpilroad companyaof this
fact.
Ordinance No. l07, establishing
street grades was placed on its final
passage.
The street committee were author
lied to have cards printed notifying
all parties in the sewer district who
have not yet connected with the sewer,
to do SO at once.
F. l.. Freeburg, who has been doing
the street numbering, submitted a
proposition to furnish galvanized let.
tered street signs for $40 per 100. No
action as taken.
A map of the plat of Hood River,
which has been recently made, and
is being sold for So, was ordered pur-
chased.
Phe city engineer was instructed to
prepare an ordinance changing the
names of streets to a uniformity of
numbers and names, that would sim.
plify the numbering and naming of
streets. 1t appears that several streets
running the full length of the town
have two and three names, as they
have been extended through the
different additions, thereby causing
confusion. All streets running north
and south are to be numbered consec-
utively, commencing with First street
The liquor license ordinance was
