A successful Leap Year Party.
Grand and petit Jurors Selected.
Deiiberation of the Councii-Com-
merciaI Club Nominations.

at the last meeting OF the Commercial
club the subject of organizing an auxili-
AIRY organization to the state board of i'm
migration was introduced and forcible
speeches were maze in favor of such an
undertaking. Mr.. Wyekof, who was one
OF the delegates from Yakima county to
the recent convention at Seattle, showed
the advantages this country would secure
by such an organization and, in contro-
verting the claim of some who maintain
there are too many people here now. said
that the growth of the cities, of the
towns, and OF the country outside of
Yakima was of vital benefit to our peo-
pie, for this section was peculiarly adapt
ed to the growth OF those products which
could not be so successfully or profitably
raised elsewhere IN the northwest and
with the settlement OF the state there
would be an increase in consumers and
the demand would raise the prices.
Yakima is already largely in the minds
of the people and where the state is bene-
fitted by immigration Yakima will secure
fully her share of these benefits. lie H.
Illustrated the advertisement Yakima is
constantly receiving by stating that at
the close of his address before the con-
vention at Seattle, as many as % gentle
men had spoken to him regarding this
section and showed anxiety for further
information, and the name OF Yakima
was so often in evidence at that gather
ing thet one delegate remarked he
was in some doubt whether it was an
immigration or irrigation convention.
A number of speeches were made by
II. j. Snively, Edward Whitson, and
others, nrging the benefits of the propos-
ed organization, in which not only the
Commercial club but every live citizen
throughout the county should take an
interest, and it was decided to hold a
mass meeting at Mason's opera house, on
Saturday afternoon, February LIST. at 2
o'clock. The farmers and everyone else
throughout the county are asked to be
present on this occasion aud assist in
making it the success which is hoped
for it.

which leap year gives them and invited
the gentlemen to the party, acted as their
escorts, attended to all Of the details OF

ly, footed the bills. The music by the
octette was excellent and for the first
time in public their new piece, introduc.
ing vocal strains, was presented and re.
ceived repeated enchores The supper
was also all that could be desired, and so
considerate were the ladies to see that
there was general enjoyment OF the

Remember that Castoria does not con-
tain Morphine, Opium, or any other
narcotic substance, in any quantity, shape
or form. 1t Is entirely vegetable, pleas
ant to take, positively effective, and per-
fectly harmless. 1t is not secret remedy;
the formula lie printed on the wrapper.
Your hpysician will recommend it. Pare
goric, Bateman's Drops, and many so called
Soothing Syrups, are composed principal
ly of Opium or Morphine; in any quantity
they stupefy, and in large quantities are
deadly poisons. Castoria assimulates
the food and regulates the bowels, cures
diarrhes, allays feverishness and freet-
fulness, soothes the pain in teething, re-
lieves constipation and kills worms. 1t
brings refreshing and natural sleep to the
child, and gives rest to the mother.
"Castoria is so well adapted to infants
and children, that / recommend it as
superior 10 any other known remedy"
DR.. II. A. ARCHER,
Ill s. Oxford ST., Brooklyn, N. Y.
March s, 1887.
From personal knowledge and obser-
walton can say that Castoria is an ex-
cellent medicine for children, acting as a
laxative and relieving the pent up bowels
and general system very much. Many
mothers have told me Of its excellent eff
feet upon their children"

TENNANT-DuNLAY CASE.
Argument Begun in the Circuit Court
Yesterday Morning,

Petersburg, Va, Dec. 2S.-Argumant
in the suit Of the heirs OF the late ID. b..
Tenant against David Dunlap was be
gun before Judge Hancock in the Circlit
court this morning. Tenant and Dun
lap were partners in the tobacco manu-
featuring business in this city, doing sn
extensive business. Upon the death Of
his partner, Dunlap bought his interest
in the business from the widow of Tea
nant, who was his executrix. He claimed
at the time that the brands owned by the
firm went to him as surviving partnef,
but paid Mrs. Tenant $1,000 to reln-
quish her claim to them. Tenants
heirs contend that the brands were the
most valuable assets Of the business; thar
there was no right of surYivorship in
them and that the price was tritile COM
pared with their real value. Their suit
is to recover from Dunlap share OF the
profits of the business since the death OF
their father, which amounts to large
sum. The most eminent lawyers Of this
city and Richmond are engaged in the
case. The depostions are very volumin-
Gus. 1t is expected that the argument
will continue more than a week.

Constantinople, Dec. 2S.-The Russian
Ambassador, NJ. De Nelidoff, on Satur-
day. acting in concert with the represen-
tatiyes of Great Britain, France, Italy,
Germany and Austria, had an audience
with Che Sultan, Abdul Hamid, on the
better administration of the affairs of the
Turkish empire.
The Russian diplomat began warning
the Suatan and the Turkish government
that IL. the revenues ceded for the pay
menfs tsf the Turkish debt were touched,
the European control of the finances or
the emnire would become inevitable.
nj De Nelidoff further informed Abdul
Hamid that the Gar guaranteed his
PERSONAL safety and engaged himself to
maintain the Sultan's supremacy in the
event of severe measures being necessary
upon the part of the powers.
The Sultan, however, remained obdu-
rate. refusing his consent TO any meas
ure to control financial or otherwise by
the powers.
To this the Russian Ambassador replied
that the condition of the Turkish empire
placed the throne and the eahphate IN
imminent peril.
Thereupan Abdul Hamid remarked Inn
pressiyely: Il may be the last OF the
Caliphs, but l will never become second
Khedive.
