railroad, will be opened In Portland.
Temporary offices will be in the union

Afterward the Hill railroads Will
secure a large group OF offices in
some prominent office building. and
the passenger and freight DEPART
ments of the Northern Pacific and
all departments Of the Portland & Sc
attic Will be conveniently located for
close cooperation.
The north bank road will be COM
pleted and in operation from Pasco
to Vancouver some time early in the
coming month. The road is now
| completed from Pasco to Cliffs. l12
miles down the Columbia. Down the
river for distance OF 30 miles below
Cliffs the steel is laid, but the road
is not ballasted. and there are sew
eral bridges that are as yet unfin-

Then there comes stretch OF 80
miles, bringing the road 10 within 30
miles OF Vancouver, where the grad
Ing Is all done, but the steel Is not
laid and there IS still bridge and cul-
vert work yet TO be completed. This
5O-mile link IS the only part OF the
Nroad for the whole distance on which
the steel is not already laid, and the
road is ready for traffic. When COM
pleted, the road from Pasco to Port
land will be 220 miles In length.

j. Hill's idea of very low grade for
the haul from the east side to tide

The high prices they ask for right

road company will pay. This Is the
only reason for abandoning the con-
struction Of this proposed line. and
work will not be resumed until they
have come down very materially in
their demands.

Austrlans' Superstitious Fear Of an
unlueky Number and Day.

Austrlans' Superstitious Fear of an
Unlueky Number and Day.
In no other Western European coun-
try is superstition so prevalent as in
Austria Hungary, say the Pail Mall
Gazette. Quite recently the chamber
taln's Office changed tie number OF
box 13 in the Imperial opera house and
the Imperial court theater to II A, be-
cause the public objected to sitting
In box bearing this unlucky number.
None of the rich subscribers who take
box for the year wanted No. 10 and
tor single performances it was just al
hard to dispose of.
This superstition reaches It's height
In medicine. Speaking at the health
exhibition, DR.. Heinrich Grun declared
that in many instances superstition,
and especially local superstition, was
an absolute menace to public health.
In the Austrian hospitals one finds
40 block or pavilion 1S, no ward 13, no
staircase 10. Very few patients will
consent to be operated upon on the
18th day Of the month, and in this re-
spect Friday, too, is considered just
as unlucky. At Carlsbad, Marienbad,
Gasden and other famous Austrian
cure resorts nobody wants to begin
his cure on Friday.

: SCHOOL NOTES.
Grand MaraiS.

A number of new lamps have been
put into; the school room, which make
"a decided improvement.
Most of the grammar department en-.
joyed vacation Thursday and Friday.
The members of the A. class and also
some of the B. were busy on Thursday
and Friday taking the state high school
board examinations. And altho it is too
early ITO announce results, it is certain
that several papers will be sent IN and
the A class will undoubtedly receive
number of certificates.
A number of very good solutions of
the problems printed some time ago
have been received. But algebra and
applications of square root seem to be
necessary for their solution.
The following is sample of language
work done by sixth grade pupil at the
examination last week. The plan was to
have the pupils write letter to a
friend ia Key West who had never seen
either snow or Ice:
Grand Marais, Mimi, Mar. Is, 1907.
Dear Harry:
Seeing that you have never seen ice or
snow, thOt it might be quite interest,"
ing to you if would tell You something
about it.
When the sun draws the water up
into the air, it forms a cloud. The
clouds move rapidly and when they
come to cold place the water forms in
to something like drop and it stays
in that form until it gets to the ground,
when it is all packed together. Snow is
one Of the whitest things IN the world.
These frozen drops are called snow.
The snow sometimes forms into
things shaped like stars. Every flake
has different shape.
Ice is formed in great deal differen
shape than snow.
Sometimes it is very cold, the water in
the lakes, ponds and rivers get very
hard. It is often very clear and we can
see to the bottom of the lake. That is
! what We call ice. 1t is simply frozen
water.
The people have a great deal of fun
on tie ice, skating. I suppose you
would like to know how we skate on ice
On the bottom of the skate is sort
of blade, which is somewhat like the
blade Of knife. It is made of stee
also. The top of the skate is the same
as the top of tie roller skate, and 81
course you know what that is. It will
save little explaining for me to do.
Well this certainly seems strange
letter, but thot it would be of interest
to you, because you have never seer
snow or ice.
Your friend,
