PLANS COMPLETE FOR
FOURTH OF JULY
To BE Gala Day According to
Program Arranged BY
George Vance.

On next Friday morning begins the
festivities of day in which the patriotic
spirit of the people of Yakima county
will evince itself, and if the plans for the
celebration are carried out as is hoped,
the people of North Yakima and sur
rounding country may well expect to be
gloriously entertained. That the efforts
of Mr.. Vance may not prove futile, the
HERALD respectfully asks the co-opera-
ton of the people in endeavorng to

Yakima avenue and Third street, where
appropriate exercises will be held. and
Hon. Miles Cannon will tell us that ops
years ago this very day our fore fathers
/ proclaimed in ependence to the world :"
Following the address of Mr. Cannon the
band will play and the people all join in
rendering the "Star Spangled Banner. ="
Everybody is invited to sing. This will
probably consume one hour and twenty
/ minutes, so at 10 80 a. m. an interesting
ball game between the Hop Pickers and
Tacoma will occur at ball grounds west
of town, and at the fair grounds will
occur trap shoot of both clay and live
birds between opposing teams from
Roslyn, Ellensburg and Yakima.
Beginning at race track at l p. m.

Fair commission, consisting of horse
racing, all kinds of racing and novelties

J n. Eraser's Home Burglarized.

The home OF J. II. Fraser was entered
last evening by Il burglar and while he
only secured about three dollars in sill

he might have gotten diamond ring

MONUMENT TO Be UNVEILED
ON FRIDAY, JULY Attn
Memorial to Company E Located at
Center of Yakima Avenue
and Third Street.

The memorial fountain to be erected
by the local Red Cross society in honor
of the Yakima volunteers who died in
the Philippines was shipped into town
last Wednesday afternoon, and is now
being put in place. A committee COM
posed of Mesdames Edward Whitson,
George Graham and ii. NJ. Bartlett ad-
yocated the selection of Yakima avenue
and Third street as the most suitable
location for the monument. Another
site-at the south end of the station
platform-was considered also and was
strongly championed by Councilman
Shaw, who contended that n monument
at the corner of Yakima avenue and
Third street would be an obstruction to
the street and constant source of dam
ger in case of runaways. However, the
majority of the council concurred with
the committee, and the former site was
selected. The great national holiday
was decided upon as the most suspicious
time for its unwilling, and about II

fully decorated with flowers of spring,
and as the bride marched to the altar
gowned in elegant org ndy over cream
taffeta carrying an exquisite bouquet of
brides roses, Memberships wedding
march was PLAYED the musical strains
of which blended to make the occasion
more imposing. Rev. II. NJ. Bartlett,
assisted by Rev. Morgan of Roslyn, per-
formed the ceremony, and the father of
the bride gave her away. Immediately
after breakfast which followed the cere-
mony the bride and groom boarded the
westbound train for Puget Sound, where

weeks to Alaska. The couple will be
at home to their many friends in North

THE WASHINGTON IRRIGATION
co. PAYS BEDELL S268.62
The Jury Goes to Scene of Contro-
verSy--The Case Establishes
A Precedent.

At two o'clock Monday afternoon
verdict was reached by the jury in the
condemnation suit of the Washington
Irrigation Co. against 5. II. Bedell of the
Sunnyside country; case which has
been looked upon with a great deal of
interest by the people in that section, as
it will establish precedent and serve as
test case.
Judge Rudkin convened court last
Saturday morning and before jury of
twelve men the evidence was heard At
3 20 p. m. the jury was taken to Bedell's
farm, the scene of the controversy, where
they could better Judge the merits of the
case. 1t appears that in the extension
of the Sunnyside canal it became neces-
sary to pass through the 100 acre farm
OF Mr. Bedell, displacing about two
acres of soil, and the damages all told
according to Bedell, should have been in
the neighbOrhood of five or six hundred
dollars, but the jury after celebrating
about three hours decided $2Gs 50 to be
just about right.
1t seems that heretofore the Washing
ton Irrigation Co. have been settling
such disputes for the sum of about $500,
and had convinced themselves that they
were paying too much, and therefore
proceeded to test the matter in the courts.

The property consists of a group of
seven claims. The original incorpora-

number of local men, although portion
OF it is still in the treasury.
The property extends for length of
800 feet along the ledge. Three tun-
nels have been sunk. The longest tun-
mel taps the ledge at a depth OF 1000
feet and is about POO feet long. 1t is

TO CLEAN EMBROIDERY.

To clean embroidery without injury
to the wash silk the article should be
immersed in warm suds made of pure
unscented soap. Add a teaspoonful of
powdered borax and rinse the cloth up
and down in the suds, but do not rub it.
When it is clean, rinse it in a series of
clear waters until the water is not at
all clouded. Then, without wringing.
squeeze as much water as possible out
of the linen.
Lay the piece in clean soft cloth.
making it as smooth as possible, and
wrap both together. Remove it in a
few minutes and dry quickly near a
fire or, still better, in the air, but do not
put it in the sun.
1t is well to- change the position of
the drying linen constantly so that the
possibility of the colors running may
be prevented. Let it dry thoroughly be-
fore pressing.
When perfectly dry, lay the embroid-
cry face downward on a smooth. fine
sheet and carefully draw the edges into
place. Dampen the linen in sections
with a fine sponge. taking care not to
wet the silk. This must be done with a
sponge because the linen will at once
take up the moisture, while the silk will
not, if the sponge is moved quickly
enough.
Now pass a hot iron over the cloth in
the direction of the grain of the mate
rial, moving the linen on the sheet until
the entire surface has been pressed.
The iron should be hot and should
be moved very quickly SO that the silk
will not be crushed, as it would by a
slow process with an iron of medium
heat.
Press all the hems from the right side.

the skirt is cloth, velvet undersieeves of

velvet. For silk sleeves make lace or

presser in a tailor shop, yet he saved
what he could until he had laid UP $50.
With that he subsisted at the Rockford
summer school while he prepared him
self to enter a medical college in the
fall, which he did. passing an examina-
ton that showed him to be amply
equipped. Such a story is almost
enough to persuade one that anybody
can do anything.

school at Rockford she resolved to give
her life to philanthropy After leaving
Rockford she spent two years in Eu-
rope studying sociology, meantime Wis

The three-quarter coat of black kerr
sey with three circular flounces at the
bottom is trimmed with tailor straps

This coat is not necessarily expen-

white down the front was lately shown
in large store with the price of $39. so
marked upon it. 1t is not wise to have
satin lining for a coat that must be
worn constantly. Excellent Innings that
cost little may be substituted. One of
these is called satin serge. The velvet
cuffs are not expensive This shape of
coat, three-quarter length, half fitted
back and front, is one of the most pop
ular styles at present in fashion. and it
is becoming to nearly every height and
breadth of figure. Such a coat without
much trimming and in a good quality
