New YoRK, March 19.-rSpecial 1.-The
six-day walking match which began at
Madison Square Garden at midnight on
Sunday with such . flourish of trumpets
looks as though it would prove an igno-
minious failure. There has been trouble
almost from the first, and q most dis
couraging feature is the fact that the paid
admissions are not large enough to pay q
small part of the expenses. In other
words, the days of walking matches are
over, at least for several years. The band
struck last night and refused to play. The
scorers have had scarcely more than q
days wages, and the chances of the walk
ers getting their money are alarmingly
small.
Guerrero, Of San Francisco, who was
looked upon as q possible winner, retired
at 81 hours, with 163 miles to his credit.
His right knee was swollen and so painful
that he could not walk. He is affected
mentally as well, and talks incoherently.

Last night the Orcas Island Fruit Com
pany held meeting in this city and chose
the following officers: President, Edmond
S. Meany; vice president, w. A. Peters !;
secretary, D. n. Baxter; treasurer, the
Guarantee Loan and Trust Company.
The company has secured tract of go
acres on Orcas island, which will be de-
voted to fruit raising. This year 5000
prune trees and 1000 apples will be
planted. The company expects to make q
handsome profit. because it has been
found that Orcas lands viii yield an
average of $500 worth of fruit to the acre,
and even should the yield fall to $500 an
acre the company would get product
worth $4,000.
The tract contains some fern fats, which
will be sown in buckwheat this year.
Various steps will be taken to make the
island pleasant summer resort. The
shooting of quail will be prohibited on
this land, in order to form hunting pre-
serve, and on the shore side club house
will be built. and summer cottages for
those wishing to spend part of the sum-
mer there. The company will join with
the ranchers in building trail to the top
of Mount Constitution, which is 2, 400 feet
high. From the summit can be seen the
Fraser river, Vancouver, Victoria, Beliing-
ham bay, Port Townsend and the San Juan
archipelago. There are two lakes on the

Dalton Family OF Train Robb.rs

MERGED. Cal. March ls-Detectives are
here, tracing up the history of William
Dalton. who has recently been arrested in
San Luis ohispo because of his supposed
connection with the Alila and Pixley train
rohheries. Dalton is a brother of the other
Daltons now in Jail at Nisalia. He resided
near livingston, in this county, for
about i've years, and was well
known, having married a daughter of
a prominent rancher in that neigh6orhood.
No one ever suspected him of being in the
train-robbing business. He was quite
active in politics while here. The whole
Dalton family. however, back in the West
ern states, are not OF the abiding citi-
xens, and officers claim that the robneries
were committed by them without doubt.

POISON FOR MRS. A. J. SMELL
A Servant Girl Puts q White Powder in
Her Mistress, Medicine.


Her Mistress Medicine.
CHICAGO. March ia new chapter in
the troubles of the Smell family was un-
folded today, which bids fair to have SEN
sational developments. A few days ago
Hattie Jurest, nurse girl employed in the
family of Albert ]. Smell, son OF the MUIR
dered millionaire. was arrested, charged
with larceny. Now comes story that
larceny was only part of the charge.
For several weeks Mrs. SMELLS health
has been failing rapidly. Finally it was
noticed that tonic she was taking was
having q decidedly bad effect. One day
she found in the bottle a white sediment
which the doctors said was not part of the
tonic. Then wine was substituted, but the
same bad effects followed, and the
doctors told Smell his wife was being
poisoned. An examination disclosed the
presence in the wine of the same powder
found in the tonic. Detectives were en-
ployed and Hattie Jurest's arrest soon
followed. In her trunk was found $500
worth of Mrs. SHELLS property and vial
of white powder, apparently identical with
that found in the tonic and wine. Both
powders have been submitted to chemist.
and pending his report the attorney for
the Smells refuses to talk about the case.
Two gentlemen intimately acquainted
with Tascott, who has SO long been sought
for, left for Aberdeen, 5. OAK, today TO
see if the suspect under arrest there is
really the man.

Gymnastic Exhfbition at the Young Mems
Christian AssocIat1on. :.
The Young Mems Christion Association
held its most successful gymnasium exhi-
bitlon last night. About 800 were present
and all enjoyed the performance very
heartily.
The drill Of the business mems class was
q fine exhibition of bodybuilding work,
and showed that the performers had
trained every muscle in their bodies.
Round after round of applause gave evil
dence that the work Of the class was ap-
preciated. There were fourteen men in it,
including A. 9. Burwell, III. w. Carr, r B.
Rawson, c. E. Robinson, George Carter
and f. Griffith.
The drill proper was followed with exer-
cises by the ADVANCED class on the hori-
zontal and parallels bars. tumbling, high
dive, jumping and pole vaulting. Among
those who attracted particular attention
were: d. Dinna, Robert Spencer, f. r.
Bentley, ]. w. Purman. ]. Beihl, Beldon
Bowen, A. S. Nickerson, n. NJ. O'Connor,
F. N. Atwood, E. Sharp and others. The
class numbered twenty. In the standing
high jump F. n. Atwood and E. Sharp
each cleared feet Z inches, and in the
running feet inches. In the high dive
several cleared 5 feet inches; in the pole
vault Atwood cleared feet inches, and
several made feet inches. The fancy
club swinging by E. Sharp and f. r. Bent
ley and the tumbling by R. Spencer and
E. B. Bowen were specially good.
The whole exhibition was a credit to the
association, and especially to Professor T.
S. Lippy, the physical director.

Ballard Citizens Looking - Their Au.s
lual Interests.
Nothing interests the people Of any SEC
ton Is the question of water supply. The
people OF Ballard have been looking into
this question deeply Of late and have
formed opinions of various kinds. One
point they all agree on. and that il any
change which is made from the present
system must be done with view to the
future growth of the city. If it is deemed
advisable to increase the present supply at
once, it is thought best to 60 to the ex-
pense of securing the very best supply
possible.
The proposition which was submitted to
the city council at the meeting Tuesday
night is one which ID looked upon with
favor by the majority OF the people in the
city. The price asked by the owners Of
the present plant for the mains and pipes
is considered too high to be thought Of.
and the amount required to purchase this
plant is thought by many would be suffi-
Gent to bring the waters of Green lake
into the city and still have something to
spare. Whether this will be done or not
is question.
One fact is plainly evident and that Is
nothing will be done which will not be q
benefit to every resident of the city,
whether he be taxpayer or is simply liv-
ing in rented house. Since the Doun-
diaries of the city have been extended it is
thought the taxes will be reduced to quite
an extent, but even as it is the rate is not
as high as in Seattle by several mills.
People who purchase property in Ballard
are making an investment on which they
will reap rich haryests, for the city is
bound to grow despite ''hard times" or bad
weather. Any one who buys property in
that city and goes there to live will not
only be earning profit on their invest
ment, but will also be obtaining the bene-
fits of their judgment.
Ballard will be known as the city of
homes among the people of the world,
while her manufacturing industries will
give her rank in the records of business
communities. Ballard is 3 city today, and
will be metropolis before many years.
No one can doubt that after seeing her
natural resources and beautiful location.
Men of means appreciate this, working
men see it and both are taking advantage
of the opportunities offered to secure q site
for homes and business. Buy IN Ballard
and you will never regret it.
