FASTEST BOAT EVER BUILT.
Launched at Nyack IN. W ship Yssd
lis Expected to Make Over
Forty Miles an Hour.

Charles R. Flint's Arrow, under con-
tract to be the fastest ship ever de-
signed, was launched the other day at
the ship yard in Nyack. N. Y. 1t has
been built under a guarantee by its de-
signer of AZ miles an hour, and it is ex-
pected that under pressure it will be
able to make so. 1t has been generally
given out that the boat was con-
structed as yacht for Mr.. Flint's per-
sonal use, but rumors have been per-
sistent that it was built under con-
tract with one of the, South American
governments for service as a torpedo
boat.
The plans, 50 far as they have been
made public, show the vessel fully
equipped for torpedo service.
The Arrow will go in tow to New
ark. N. j.. where shafting and engines
will be put in. The yachts destination
after it has been fitted out at Newark
has not been pronounced.

J WHAT PEOPLE SAY s!

J. A. Taggard-It is hard to keep a
good man down. Honors are being
showered upon me, and on Monday l
was not only elected city justice, by a
practically unanimous vote of the coun-
Gil, but the next day received notifica-
ton OF re-appointment for the coming
two years, as referee in bankruptcy for
this district.
DIR. p. Frank-You can say in THE
HERALD that the smallpox quarantine
against Roslyn has been removed, and
that consider the danger has passed.
Marshal Grant is steadily improving,
and there are no indications of any 9TH
err infection. Yakima is fortunate in es-
Gaping any serious trouble on this score.
Ex-Mayor Redman-I regret that the
old council was not permitted to adjourn
in the customary way for l had fortified
myself with speech and intended rak-
ing the members over the Goals and also
giving the retiring mayor a few hot shots
and it would have been deserved, espec-
tally as to the latter.
Col. A. c. Walker-The reception Civ
en- to Frederick Warde and the Elks by
Manager Fournier at the theatre after
the performance of Monday evening,
was an unqualified success and enjoyed
by all. Mr.. Fournier left nothing I'M
done which could have contributed to
the pleasure of the occasion and Mr..
Warde was in most happy humor.
Several little speeches were made and
+. G. Richards-The survey for the
new railway to take in the Sunnyside
country and join the n. P. at North
Yakima is about completed | am told.
There is little doubt but a railway is
sorely needed along this route and will
prove paying investment from the
start. 1t seems to me that the company
would find a profitable route to North
Yakima via Parker and the Mckee coun-
try. This together with the new canal
now being constructed in the Mckee
would develop that section as nothing
else could do. 1t may be the plan of the
company to do this, if SO am not aware
of it, Nevertheless from business
standpoint it would be the wise thing
for it to do.
Phil Ditter-Ditter Bros. will build on
their property in block 80, on the north
side OF Yakima avenue, the coming
spring. We will join with Alex Miller,
who will also put up building with a
frontage Of so feet, and our plans will be
made to correspond with his, which will
be drawn up by Mr.. Crandall, of The
Dalles, who was the architect of the
Schott Co. block. The combined struc-

ture will be of pressed brick, 100 feet
front with depth of 100 feet and two
stories in height. Work will be COM
menced as soon as climatical conditions
are favorable.

garding bond, so have made applica-

erything will be all right in day or

The Spirit of Christ.

From the doors of the notorious Hay
market, as the Sabbath dawned yester-
day, there emerged four young and pref
ty Salvation Army lassies, says the New
York World.
With no protection save their uni
forms and their soft-worded greeting,
sWont YOU help buy Christmas din
ner for the poor?i they had spent the
hours since s o'clock the evening before
mingling with the fallen creatures that
gather in the dive. No word OF insult
had fallen on their ears. They had
talked with drunken blasphemers, they
had mingled with drink-excited dancers,
they had approached thugs from whom
even the police shrink, but the spirit OF
Christmas enshrouded them with a sane
tity that ribaldry dared not penetrate.
In the entryway sat sweet-faced Cadet
Annie, her tambourine outstretched, and
many were the coins flung into it, though
never before had an appeal for charity
been heard in the dive, unless perchance
to save from Potters Field some poor
unfortunate who had paid the wages Of
sin.
Within the other three lassies circu-
lated among the jewellers. As loud
voiced negro banjoist sought payment
from the dancers for his music, Cadet

The greatest local sensation since DR..
Lindsey's circular letter, which caused
his arrest on the charge OF libel, was the
appointments made OF city officers by
the council Monday night. That there
was political deal is unquestioned and
undenied, but the councilmen should re-
member that this city government was
not organized and should not be run on
the principle OF partisanship. The tax
payers are averse to having the munich
pal offices turned into an eleemosvnary
asylum. Merit and fitness should gov
ern the choice OF the servants of the
people, and it is no excuse to say that
1--WE have strings" on certain appointees
and if they do not drill to the line off
go their heads. In cold, hard facts, a
resignation accompanied at least one OF
the appointments, and this should have
been unnecessary when there are capa-
bic, trustworthy and deserving men who
would have been glad to have accepted
the positions.

Editor Robertson, who is one of the
most learned men OF this age, and whose
mental machinery is so delicately poised
that the future is an open book to him,
tells the public what the policy of Gov
ernor Rogers will be for the next two
years There are some people unkind
enough to insinuate that Mr.. Robert
sons judgment OF the present is SO poor
that he would do better to concentrate
his wonderful powers on to-day and let
coming years take care of themselves.

Those who watch the course of prices
are aware that the trusts are at it again
Lead, sheet steel, glass, galvanized iron
and wrought iron pipe are either adj
vanced or else are arbitrarily held at ex-
orbitant prices by the great combina-
tons controlling their production, and
are examples OF the tribute levied upon
the industries and the people of this
country by trusts which derive their
power to levy tribute from the protec-
tive duties in our tariff and the acqui-
essence OF a political and subservient
administration.

Terribly Burned

Messrs. J, A. and Will Stirlen, Of
Strasburger's, were summoned Sat-
urday to Delta, to the home Of their
sister, Mrs. Lou Brainard, who was
almost fatally burned by the explo-
sion of can of turpentine.
Putting some brushes into can Of
turpentine, she put them on the
stove to boil and went about her
morning work. Coming out Of the
cellar she saw the turpentine blazing
to the ceiling. Taking some rags in
her hand she grasped the can and
tried tn throw it through the door.
The screen being hooked, the con-
tents were thrown all over her and
she was wrapped in flames instantly.
Running through another door she
threw herself down in the grass and
screamed for help. Messrs. Payton
and Moore were blowing about 80
rods away, and, hearing her, came
to her rescue, tearing her clothing
of and fighting the flames with their
hats. Her husband arrived by this
time and she was carried into the
house and medical aid summoned.
II she can rally from the shock the
DIR. has every hope of her life, but
her condition Is serious.

Headache may be called a woman's
ailment. Some men suffer from it. But
almost all women have to endure its pain
with each recurring month. This fact

of the whole body. DR.. Pierce's Favor

banishing its cause. 1t cures the dis
eases which irritate the delicate wornanly

builds up the nervous system. "Favorlte
