RANDOM IMPRESSIONS
OF A HIGHWAY HIKER
by G. E. SteWartl

To eastern friends, and even TO those
closer home, whose misfortune il is to
be as yet unintiated, the undertaking
to paint word picture of all the be-
Jewelled trophies Of nature with which
the Cascade Range is decked, would
perhaps not altogether be regarded as
an act OF presumption. But TO most of
US folks living along where communion
with nature is as nearly as much of
our hands and faces word painting
will not do. Our vision is already in
toxieated with il our souls have assim-
Hated 1t; onr lives are, indeed, a part
of il.
The writer, therefore, desists from
attempted calculating. He leisureIy
hiked along the highway from Port
land, and, Of course, viewed il all from
a somewhat different angle than could
be glimpsed via chugging auto or any
other speeding conveyance For ex-
ample, from an auto you fail, at this
season. to get much inspiration from
Crown Point when dense veil of fog
grimly closes over Rooster Rock and
over the miles of agitated waters far
below--and when the rugged eminence
and nelghboring crags are lashed by a
furious, drenching rain. Nor. per-
chance, do these nature-loving autoists
ct al relish the lightning flashes or the
bull-bellowing of the god of thunder,
Just few score feet above, who
seemed self-elected to wreak ven-
geance upon the science and engineer
ing skill Of mere man for daring the
feat of embellishing or striving to
make over the besuteous Furnishing of
Mother Natures handiwork. Nor can
the automobile enthusiast incline him
self, or herself, to the discernment of
the unexpOsed big-heartedness of some
of the Weary WilIies and Dusty
Rhodeses with whom fate might bring
the hiker into contact.
Il should worry" is the unconven-
tional motto | adopted when starting
on this tramp; and to maintain it and
live 1t, notwithstanding the ceaseless
rain. and the sharp rocks and mud on
stretches of highway. and
lodging the mud of half-hundred be-
spattered touring cars and splitting
'hot-stuff' trucks, served as buoy to
an otherwise cold-footed, weather
beaten amateur.
incidentally may add that on arriv-
ing here, found different Hood Riv-
er than that which | saw some twenty
odd years ago when first tramped this
way. Then it had all the outstanding
earmarks of the almost obsolete cross
roads hamlet. Now it smacks of the
1t breathes progress. Its
people are hustling, hospitable, and
they don't knock. A "city of destiny"
It surely will be. Ten. twenty, thirty
years hence its increasing populace
will rise up and call its sponsors
blessed.

Demented Man Prays

A man, whose name is given as Jno
Knight and because of peculiar actions
Thursday was arrested by local officials
and lodged in the city prison, where
he was held under the care of the
county physician, DR.. V. r. Abraham.
knight, who was partially rational at
times and who claims Tacoma as his
home, semed crazy on the subject of
religion. He attracted the attention
of an O-.W. K. & N. section crew by
prayers and supplications.
knight carried a roll of blankets.
He made his way up the railway right
of way, kneeling at intervals, appar-
emily using the blankets as a kind of
prayer rug. He was engaged in loud
and vehement prayers in the Jail the
most of Thursday afternoon.
The demented man, a Hungarian,
was taken to Portland Friday by Sher-
if johnson. He was turned over to
the Austrian consul.

COMMERCIAL CLUB

Anthony Euwer, of New York, who
has been visiting at the Weirwold
Ranch in the Upper Valley, and who
recently entertained the Womans club
with some of his original sketches, will
repeat these sketches with others for
the Commercial club members aud
their ladies'. some evening early in
October. Invitations will be issued
later. At the same time Mr.. Euwer
will exhibit in the library a number of
original paintings that have occupied
his time the past summer.
The Tariff Commission league has
made arrangements with the club to
distribute its literature among club
members. The object of the league
is to secure the passage of a tariff
commission bill that will remove the
tariff question from politics.
X. S. Wallace, representing the for
estry service, spent several days in the
valley last week collecting various sta
tistics for the files of the Interior de-
partment. Few of the Government
men visiting the valley are able to tell
themselves how the data they collect
will be used, as they act under orders
from their chiefs. Mr.. Wallace in
formed Secretary Scott that among
other things he was expected to en-
body in his report a suggestion as to
what would be the best nucleus for
system of good roads in Hood River
county, and asked how proposition to
bond the government timber in the
county. the proceeds to be used on this
work, would strike the community.
Mr.. Wallace, with Secretary Scott.
looked over the Hood River canon,
having in mind the river road that has
been petitioned for several times.
H, c. Lassen, of the Bean Sprayer
company, while in Hood River the
other day visiting that company's rep
resentative, D. Mcdonald, gave such
an excellent report of 0regon's s exhibit
at the fair that MIR. Mcdonald asked
him to tell his story to few members
of the Commercial club. So dozen or
more of members came to the club
rooms last Wednesday to hear Mr..
Lassen's talk. He said that while talk
ing was not in his line he had become
so impressed with the Oregon exhibit
and especially that part that Hood
River was responsible for that he was
anxious to spread the news as far as he
could. Among the significant things
he had TO say, was that a checking of
visitors to the Washington and Oregon
exhibits in the Horticultural Palace
showed $50 every hour for Oregon as
against 200 for Washington. He
thought the Big Apple had probably
attracted more attention than any
other publicity stunt at the fair. Mr..
Lassen covers this territory once every
wear.

Mrs. CaStner Will Be Candidate

Mrs. Chas. H. Castner, formerly
president of the Woman's club and who
as chairman of the civic committee of
the State Federation conducted the Or
egon clean up day last spring, will be a
candidate for the presidency of the
state organization at the next annual
meeting. Mrs. Castner has taken the
step after having been besieged by let
ters from different prominent club wo-
men. Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, at pres
ent head of the state organization, has
positively announced that she will not
again be candidate. 1t is felt through
out state circles of the federation that
the presidency has been in Portland
longsenough and that Mrs. Castner is
the logical person to assume the helm.

PARKER HAS HEADS
OF INDIAN CHIEFS

C. W. Parker, owner of the Little
Boy Ranch. the unique country home
just west of Mitchells Point, has added
to his list of curios a number of grin
ming skulls of Flat Head Indians. He
calls that portion of his den in which
leer the relics of aborigine days, The
Nook of Royalty" have been told. :"
says MIR. Parker, that only chiefs or
those in line for the head of the tribe
had their heads tiattened while chill
dren. This accounts for my name for
the niche of skulls"
The bones along with other Indian
curiOs were unearthed by a dredge
working for the S. p. g. S. railway
company on the Washington side of the
Columbia near Cooks.

of the residence Of Austrian princes
ever since the thirteenth century, but
they were small people at that time,
and nothing remains Of the building
which housed them.
What exists is an irregular assem-
blage of edifices of different late dates

which the public has access, so that
there is a continual coming and going
