Going Round the World.

In sailing around the world east
ward the days are each little less
than twenty-four hours, according to
the speed Of the ship rs the sun is
met a little earlier every morning
These little differences added together
will amount to twenty-four hours
This gives the sailors an extra day
not in imagination. but as an actual
fact They will have done an extra
days work, eaten an extra days ration
Of food and imbibed an extra days al
lowance Of grog.
On the other hand, In sailing west.
ward the sun Is overtaken little each
day, and so each day is rather longer
than twenty-four hours, and clocks
and watches are found to be too fast.
This also will amount in sailing around
the world to the point Of departure to
one whole day by which the reckoning
has fallen In arrears. The eastern
bound ship, then, has gained day.
and the western bound ship has lost
one. This strange fact, clearly work
ed out, leads to the apparent paradox
that the first named ship has a gain of
two whole days over the latter. II we
suppose them TO have departed from
port and returned together. .-Phlladel-

TWO PRETTY PARTIES
AT STEWART HOME

Two very beautiful parties were
given Thursday and Friday evenings
by Mr.. and Mrs. William Stewart, DR..
and Mrs. j. A. Watt and Mr. and
Mrs. 0. j. Nelson, at the handsome
Stewart home on State street in honor
of Mr.. and Mrs. c. II. Henny, who
came to the valley recently from
Washington, d. C. The first evening
was a musicale and the entertainment
the second evening was Dutch whist.
The house which was opened as one
large room, was tastefully decorated
as were the porches and garden, the
latter being illuminated with many
small electric lights. Yellow was the
prevailing color in the scheme of
decoration and inside the house were
suspended many baskets which gave
an effect of hanging garden.
The musicale was one OF the most
pleasing affairs ever given IN Hood
River and the talented musicians and
singers who helped to entertain the
guests rendered a program which is
seldom excelIed by local artists in
much larger communities. The singing
of Mrs. Henney, the guest of honor,
was most highly enjoyed. Other solo
lists vocal and instrumental were Mrs.
p. S. Davidson, Mrs. Charles Hall,
Mrs. G. H. Sletten, Mrs, A. A. Jayne,
Miss Bryant, Miss Alberta Jackson,
George K. Wilbur, Murray Kay, J. Ad-
rian Epping and Will Chandler, the last
named being accompanied by Mrs. II.
l.. Dumble, Mr.. Patterson, of Port
land, formerly member of the Chica-
go Apollo Club, also performed and one
of the Emost surprising and pleasing
features were solos whistled by Miss
Morgan, a small girl from Goldendale.
The Mandolin Club orchestra played
several numbers lin the garden while
the refreshments were served.
Friday evening the guests were en-
tertained with Dutch whist, a novel
and very entertaining game. The
prizes were in keeping with the idea
and the first prizes were won by Mrs.
l.. +. Henderson and E. X. Manning,
while the second trophies went to Mrs.
Manning and E. j. Young.

the freezing point without its becom-
Ing ice.


A glacier when 1t dislodges itself and
sails away over the Arctic ocean never
travels alone. In the wake of every
large one floats line Of similar com
panions The Eskimos call this phe-

and any one who has watched the
progress Of the wild duck followed by
her brood will appreciate the aptitude
Of the name. Strange as 1t may seem,
plants grow and blossom upon these
great ice mountains. When a glacier
Is at rest moss attaches itself to It,
protecting the ice beneath, Just as
sawdust does. After time the moss
decays and forms a soil, in which the
seeds Of buttercups and dandelions,
brought by the wind. take root and
flourish. Those who have Travelled
much in arctic lands say the poppy
does not bloom during the brief north
ern summer

FRAUDULENT AND
FORGED CHECKS

Thursday George Thompson, who haC
been working here for several weeks
as cook, cashed several bad checks
among local business men and then left
town. The checks were for small
amounts drawn on the First National
Bank, where Thompson had no account,
and were cashed by Kent & Garrabrant
and Morrison & Hayward. Thompson
was located Friday in The Dalles, where
he had also tried to pass checks. Dep
uty Sheriff Charles Morse went to the
city up the river for the man but the
Wasco county officers kept him for trial
for the frauds committed in that coun-
ty.
Tuesday a check for $40 signed with
the name of X. +. Gibson and drawn
on the First National Bank here came
to the bank and had evidently been
cashed by the North Bank agent at
Grand Dalles, Wash. 1t is suspected
that Thompson is the author of this
check which was forgery. Thompson
was employed by Mr.. Gibson while

DISTRICT MAY SELL
ADDITIONAL BONDS

The Supreme Court handed down an
opinion last week affirming judgment
in the case of Charles Hall, appel
liant, against the Hood River Irrigation
District, respondent. The appellant,
Halt, brought this suit to enjoin the
Irrigation District from issuing and
selling Il second bond issue amounting
to $4,000, this sum being required to
complete the irrigation project, alleg-
ing that the law did not authorize the
second bond issue. A demurrer was
interposed and sustained by Circuit
Judge w. l.. Bradshaw, from which
judgment the appeal was taken. In
the opinion, which was written by JUS
tice King, the lower courts judgment
is upheld in that an amendment to the
Constitution provides and specifically
implies that when a district legally
authorized to construct irrigation de-
vices, dig canals and bitches, finds that
the funds derived from the first bond
issues are insufficient to complete the
work, special election may be called
and further bonds issued. The election
in Hood River County having been
lawfully held and the second bond
issue approved by the voters, the case
is affirmed

ers among the insurance companies
and will, they say, be able to under
write the bonds. The council did not
meet Monday night and the negotia-
tions with the Denver house have not
been brought before the body formal
ly. An ordinance to advertise the
bonds another time was brought up at
the last meeting of the council and is
in the hands of committee to be re-
ported back at the meeting of the
council Monday night, when it will
probably be passed The Denver house
it is understood has made the city a
very good proposition but the council
seems to be making very careful in
vestigation before taking any steps
toward closing the deal.

DAN SMITH KILLED
IN LOGGING CAMP

Dan Smith, brakeman, on the log
ging train of the Oregon Lumber com
pany, was killed Friday at Camp l.,
south of Dee. Smith sat down or the
track under car which had just been
loaded with logs and in loading the car
following two logs on the first car
were knocked off. A warning was
shouted to Smith and he jumped from
under the car just in time to be struck
by the second log which fell, pinning
him to the ground and causing instant
death. Coroner J. Edgington held an
inquest Saturday and the verdict was
accidental killing without placing the
blame for the accident. The deceased
had been in the employ of the company
about five years.
He was born in Kansas about 80
years ago and has been in Hood River
for the past six years. He is survived
by four small chilrden, his wife hav-
ing died several years ago. The
funeral was held Sunday afternoon
from Bartmess chapel with Rev. W.
G. Gilmore officiating and the burial

HARVEY W. SCOTT.

Harvey w. Scott, editor of the Port
land Oregonian since long before most
of us began reading it, is dead. Mr..
Scott's passing will be deeply felt.
He was an editor who injected his per-
sonality strongly into the editorial
page of his paper and who never failed
to take a fighting stand on every sub
ject, defending his own side with such
zeal that he allowed no good could
ext upon the opposited side Of the
issue. He has made the Oregonian his
monument and it is regarded as the
best and most thorough newspaper on
the Pacific coast. Mr.. Scott was a
national figure and, while his impress
was keenly made on Portland, Oregon
and the Northwest, the country at
large regrets the loss Of man who
made himself felt in its affairs.
