A Massachusetts, Mountain Which Has
Stood Millions of Years.
When the legislature of Massachu-
sets. two or there years ago, took
Mount Greylock under the states
care and protection, it probably only
family realized what a fine old piece
of Titanic bric-a-brac it was cherish
inc. Prof. T. Nelson Dale, Of Pitts
field, and the United States Geologic
al survey threw some interesting light
upon the matter in a lecture in the
Berkshire city on the geological his
tory of this, the states loftiest eleva-
ton. The old mountain, it appears,
has passed through nine epochs-the
land epoch, before the invasion Of the
of sea; the marine sand epoch, the
epochs of marine lime deposits and
Of clay, the period of cOrrugation and
crystallization when the Green and
Taconic ranges we're formed, and the
sea retired; the water-wear epoch,
covering upper Silurian Devoniani
carbonifereous, cretaceous, and ter
tiary time; the glacial epoch; the lake
epoch, when a glacial lake filled the
Williamstown valley; and finally the
modern drainage epoch, when the
lake gave place to rivers and streams
The marine epoch lasted somewhere
between one and two million years.
while the water-wear period lasted
possibly for ten million years. We
are supposed to have got rid OF our
superAuous ice-crop some eight OF
ten thousand years ago. The noun
tain commanded respect and admlra-
ton before. In the light Of these In
teresting facts yeneration should now

THE WORLDS COFFEE crop.

Growing Every Year.

Is Constantly Increasing and Surplus Is
Growing Every Year.
The worlds production OF coffee
for the season Of 1901, according to
the best statistical information at
hand, says the New York Sun, was
l5,460,000 bags Of 1872 pounds each.
OF this immense product Brazil's
share was II, 100000 bags. IN other
words, Brazil produces nearly four
fifths Of the total crop; and in spite
OF the gluttcd markets, its produc-
ton is increasing every year.
Santos now exporting about two
thirds Of the entire crop Of Brazil.
Although Rio de Janeiro is next TO
Santos, the greatest coffee port in the
world, It's far surpassed in shipments
by the smaller port south oft. The
Central American states and Mexico
and the other South American repub-
lies, Venezuela, Colombia. Ecuador
and Peru, contributed to the mar
kets 100000 bags. For a lit
tie place the republic of Hayti
is a remarkable contributor to
the coffee supplies, its product
last year amounting to 100000
bags. Tho horny of ITovE 10 ,.,rt;,

"CYCLONES" GREETED BY
A FULL HOUSE
Second Annual Tour of This Famous
Company Proves Success
Irby'S Solo the Feature.

The second annual tour of the "Cy-
clone" MINISTRIES given by the local
celebrity on the evening of the third
was a bowling success, and when the
curtain went up at $50 p. m. prompt
the boys were given thunderous APP
plause by large enthusiastic audience.
Every member was literally encored,
and all well deserved encores with the
possible exception of Erwin's song as he
was unable to remember the words and
constantly referred to his music. The
solo of the occasion however, came in
the shape of surprise from one of the
end men, Mr.. Irby. Mr.. Irby is COM
monty known as "Blubber" among the
boys on the ball team of which he is a
star member. They all knew he could
play ball, but none ever dreamed that he
could sing note in the world and up to
the night in question he never had.
That may be true, too, but those who
heard him last Thursday evening-you
could never make them believe any such
statement. Guy Aliens voice was espe-
cially strong and effective in critical
moments. Messrs. Grafton and Frayne
the star end men and managers of the
show were both in good voice and re-
ceived their share Of applause The last
number on the program was the "Old
Plantation scene" in which Mr., Frayne
sang sold Black Joe," dying on the
stage as the curtain went down. He
was well supported in this act by Graf
ton and Otis Frye. The monologue of
Mr.. Patterson was full of wit and local
hits. From financial standpoint the
show was also flattering success.

THEY WILL EXTEND
THE C0NGD0N DITCH.
Stockholders Increase Capital Stock
will Tunnel Through the
Painted Rocks.

On Saturday afternoon in the law Of
ices of Whitson d Parker the stock
holders of the Yakima Valley Canal Co.
convened and voted the following i'm
provements, viz: To increase the cap
ital stock from $1,000 to 81 200; to tear
down the S0-foot trussel work around
the painted rocks and bore tunnel
through the mountain instead to ex-
tend the ditch to such length as to cover
by irrigation at least 1900 acres more of
land; all OF the flume work to be as
phalted and the end OF the ditch to be
cement-lined. In other words by vote
Of tifty-fve for to one against it was de-
cided to expend S35 900 on the Congdon
ditch. Thus the enterprise of the Yak
ina citizens is demonstrated, wherefore
the great prosperity of the little city
and surrounding country.
What is commonly known as the
Congdon ditch is to be enlarged so that
it will give to each eighty acres OF land
a cubic foot OF water per second and in
the construction of the tunnel to be
bored through the "Sceptris Pataha-
mum" (Indian name for the historical
Painted Rocks which will do away with
the wooden trussle work, the company
get rid of a menace which has been a
source OF continual bother and expense
for number OF years. A new siphon is
to be constructed across the Cowyche
and when all the improvements have
been made that are now finally decided
upon, the company will have one OF the
best and most substantial irrigating
bitches in the country. When it is
completed a marvellous feat of civil en-
cheering will have been accomplished
and those buying land under the ditch
will never have cause to complain for
lack II water. Albert Bannister OF SaL-
Francisco, the engineer who constructed
the ditch, will have charge OF the i'm
proyement work and will commence OPP
eratiOnS at once.

JURY RETURNS VERDICT

After Deliberating % Hours They
Finally Agree Application Filed
for \ New Trial.

Jack Ellis, SLAYER Of J. 4. Stanley,
was found guilty Of manslaughter by the
Jury last Friday morning. The attor-

in all probability they will get it.
1t was with much difficulty that jury
was finally selected, the feeling against
Ellis being fully apparent
The crime for which Jack Ellis was
tried was the killing OF J. B. Stanley in
the Louvre saloon at Ellensburg on the
night of May 3 of this year. 1t appears

Poisoning the system.

1t is through the bowels that the body
is cleansed of impurities. Constipation
keeps these poisons in the system, caus-
ing headache, dullness and melancholia
at first, then unsightly eruptions, and
finally serious illness unless a remedy is
applied. DeWitt's Little Early Risers
prevent this trouble by stimulating the
liver and promote easy, healthy action
of the bowels. These little pills do not
act violently, but by strengthening the
bowels enable them to perform their
own work. Never grippe or distress.

friends when Ellis entered. Stanley
was unarmed. When he saw Ellis he

preached he was shot dead by Ellis.
