The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1912-12-05

Of all the good story tellers in the
city none can surpass Clarence Gilbert.
MIR. Gilbert has two good, new Scotch
stories. The first of them concerns
an old English lady who was visiting
in Scotland. Now the old lady was
quite deaf and was forced to use ar
ear trumpet, ,One of these silver affairs,
that she wore around her neck and
which resembled a real trumpet as
much as anything else. While on her
visit she went to church on a blithe
Sunday morning. The naughty lads OF
the neighborhood had been giving the
devout old deacons lots of trouble, and
as soon as they saw the old lady's ear
trumpet they decided that she must be
their confederate. After a conference,
one of them approached her and tapping
her shoulder pointed to the trumpet
and SAID: THE first toot and you re

OFFER SUPPORT

(Stock Growers News, Ft. Pierre)
The County Commissioners, last
week, passed a resolution assuring
State Engineer Lea that thev will
lend their hearty assistance on the
construction and maintenance of the
proposed cross-state road throughout
the county. 1t is proposed to have
competent engineers run levels, and
superintend the construction of the
road, thus guaranteeing that there
will be few bad grades, or bad stretch
es of road, as at present under the
township cons nstruction plan. The road
as designed will have two forks, One
starting at the east line of the state
will run through Brookings, cross the
meridian road at Arlington, and fol-
low the Northwestern through Lake
Preston. DeSmet, Huron, and on to
Pierre. crossing the Missouri here, it
will follow the old Deadwood trail
through Meers, and then will run
along section lines through Ottumwa
and Hayes, then south to Philip, cross
ing the Cheyenne south of the rail-
road on a bridge which the people of
Pennington county will construct, to
Rapid City, thence to Deadwood, and
ultimately to Yellowstone Pa-k. The
other branch, constituting the Iowa
Yellowstone Park road, will enter the
state east OF Sioux Falls, and in a
general westerly direction will pass
through that city, Montrose, cross
the meridian road at Salem, then to
Mitchell and Chamberlain, crossing
the river at that point, and following
along the Milwaukee to Kadoka, from
which point it will run almost due
north to meet with the other branch
somewhere east Of the Cheyenne.
Friends Of good roads feel that the
construction and Improvement Of
these roads will put into practical op-
Grafton the Issenhuth good roods bill
of the last session.

F. PIERRE CITY
AUDITOR MISSING

About three weeks ago Morris Nc
MILAN, city auditor. left this city on
a trip to the Black Hills and his con-
t;uued absence caused the city off,
cials and other business men in Fort
Pierre to wonder IL he intended to
return. An attempt. which proved
futile, was made to locate him and
then people commenced to take stock
of how much they were out. 1t has
developed that practically every mer-
chant in the city has contributed vari-
ed sums to his support in years past
and some OF his business associates
are lefG in the hole, just how deep it
is impossible TO tell at this time.
Mayor Moore revoked his appoint
ment as city auditor and an attempt
is be.ug made TO check his books, but
as some of the records are missing it
is not likely that they will be able to
determine whether or not the city has
been swindled. Mcmillan had habit
or carrying his pockets full of city
papers, such as check book, receipt
book and bills and these are now
missing, so it is very probable that he
took them with him. Whether or not
an attempt will be made to bring him
back is not known.
There has been a feeling among the
citizens and officials of this city for
some time that all was not going as it
should in the auditors office and an
accounting was about to be asked
for, and the missing officer probably
knew of this and decided to leave,
not caring to do as did the police
justice, when he resigned, say that he
had spent some of the city's money
but would make good as soon as he
was able.-Fort Pierre News.

TRAIN RUNS OVER
MAN AT MURDO

Murdo, Jan 23rd.-At about $3.50
Monday morning, Rev. II. o. Ross Of
Wall was run over by freight train
in the yards here. from which injuries
he died about two hours later.
The full particulars will probably
never be known as it was at an early
hour aud very dark. RosI was here
Sunday to conduct services in the
Congregational church and had in.
tended to take the early freight west
to Rapid City, and then down on the
Northwestern to his home at Wall.
He left the hotel at about O'Clock
and that was the last seen of him un.
til he was found near the railroad
company's ice house by H. S. Ford
about forty five minutes later. He
was unconscious, having been struck
in the head near the right eye. Both
limbs were severed between the knees
and the ankles and the right hand had
been partly run over by the wheels.
He was taken to Flack's hotel and
Doctors o. A. Kifnble and j, w. Will
hanson summoned. They immediate
ly operated on his limbs. but the loss
of blood had already been too great
and the sufferer lived only short
time after the operation.
Near where his body was found was
a grip belonging to travelling sales
man and it is thought that Rev. Ross
in his hurry to get to the train had
taken the wrong grip, and upon ar
irving at the depot and seeing his
mistake, had started to return to the
hotel. but in crossing the switch track
In the dark, he was struck by one of
the cars which the crew has showed
onto the track, while making up their
train. The trainmen did not see him
and the train had been made up and
gone west before the body was found.
The deceased leaves a wife and
seven chilren and the wife arrived
late yesterday to take charge of the
body. MIR Ross was member of the
Masonic aud 1. o. o. F. lodges, and
the brethren as well as the church
people did all that they could for him.
