Charles Van .Buskirk Arrested tor
Killing n. D. Castleburg.

WENATCHEE, Nov. 3-Charles
Van Buskirk has been lodged in Jail
here charged with the killing Of II. u.
Castleburg, at Levenworth. So far as
can be ascertained the trouble began
in a drunken brawl. The two men
were in a saloon at the time OF the
fight and it was carried out into the
street, when Van Buskirk picked up
brick and killed the deceased. Castle
burg was a locomotive engineer in the
employ of the Great Northern rail-
way. Van Buskirk is an engine wiper
and was in the employ of the same
company. 1t is said that Castleburg
has a sister, Mrs. Edward Westbrook
living at Seattle. Another sister Is
the principal Of the Levensworth
school. He had been married twice,
and divorced twice. He leaves four
children, two sons and two daughters.
The sons are supposed to be at work

mature explosion of an aerial bomb
one man was killed and many others
injured, two of them seriously, at
Woodside, in Queensborough, last

seemed to explode just as it reached
the adge of the mortar, and tore away
part of the barrel.
Allen, who was standing close to the
mortar, was badly hurt. Close by
stood John r. Redfield, IS years old.
He was hit by a section of the mortar
and killed. John Deboe, IA years old,
was struck on the left arm, which
was broken and torn, and his left
side was cut and bruised. John G..

Sound Wholesalers Want
Our Business.
THIS CITY AND SOUND SHOULD JOIN
Another Large Excursion Of Business
Men From Tacoma in Con-
temptation.

Sound wholesalers no doubt have
been remiss in not cultivating to a
greater degree business relations with
| the eastern part Of the state, especial
ly the Walla Walla country but 1t was
not because they did not think the
trade worth going after but because
| they had about all the home business
| they could attend to-" This is the
| way Charles A. Taylor, Of Seattle, REP
| resentative of the Trade Register, who
is in Walla Walla summed up the Sit
| uation this morning.
ITO begin with there is no denying
the fact that Sound wholesalers have
been wofully ignorant Of the grand
country that lies east Of the noun
tains but thanks to the enterprise Of
few moving spirits instrumental in
planning and executing the recent ex-
cursion this has been swept aside and
a truer understanding of conditions
obtained.
Seattle especially in attending to
her own wants and the Alaska trade
has about had her hands full and the
idea of seeking new fields especially
in the eastern part of the state has in
a great measure, been overlooked. 1t
is true that many Seattle and Tacoma
wholesale houses have their represent
tatives visit Walla Walla once or
twice a month but more progressive
wholesale houses of Portland have
seen fit to locate their statesmen here
and have been able to control the
cream Of the trade. What Sound
wholesalers will now have to do is to
meet the Portland jobbers on their
own ground and fight it out. They
have seen what vast amount of trade
is diverted to the Oregon city in this
manner and 1 predict that the Sound
people will adopt the same measures
to obtain a share of the trade that
should go to Washington cities.
There is no use denying the fact
that in a great measure the Inland
Empire trade is welded to Portland
but why it should be so is more than
l can understand unless it is a ques-
ton of transportation facilities.
"Walla Walla and the Sound should
be in perfect harmony not alone In a
commercial way but in a fraternal
way. What benefits one part Of the
state benefits another"
Mr.. Taylor said he felt much graf
flied that another excursion was be-
ing contemplated. He said the Sound
people should make it a point to spend
at least two weeks in the eastern part
of the state studying conditions and
getting acquainted with the trade.
And on the other hand the people Of
the eastern part of the state should
not be backward about getting up a
similar excursion and invading the
Sound country. Il think it would do
us all good" he declared.

EpiscopaIians in Session.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Nov. 3-The 22d
congress of the Protestant Episcopal
church opened it's session here today
with a large attendance of leading
churcitmen from all parts of the
United States. Holy communion was
celebrated in the morning at Trinity
church, the Right Rev. DR.. Alexander
H. Vinton, Bishop of Western Massa-
chusetts, officiating.
The regular sessions of the congress
are to open this evening in Carnegie
Hall and will continue through the
greater part of the week. More than
ordinary interest is manifested in the
proceedings because of the promi-
nence of the participants and the i'm
portance of the questions to be dis
cussed. Besides such eminent church
men as Bishop Potter of New York,
Bishop Doane Of Albany Bishop
Whitehead and the Right Rev. D. w.
S. Rainsford, those in attendance on
the congress include a large number
of distinguished laymen, among the
number being J. Pierpont Morgan,
Thomas Nelson Page, Hamilton w.
Mabie, George Foster Peabody, Gen.
r. S. Oliver and Capt. Alfred T.
Mahan.
Marriage and divorce is probably
the most interesting question that
will be discussed by the congress.
Bishops Potter, Whitehead, Vinton
and leading clergymen of the church
are expected to make addresses
against marriages of divorced persons
The Limitations of Industrial Lib
erty" is another question which is to
be discussed and which is likely to
provoke unusual interest in view of
the presence of J. PierpOnt Morgan
and other leading finanCiers of the
country. Under the head of this SUBJ
and other large cities are to be dis
cussed and. if possible, methods
adopted to effect better relations be-
tween capital and labor
miracles as an Element of Christ
liant" and immortality complete the
list of leading subjects to be discus
sed. At the recent English congress
is was proposed to rule out much OF
the miraculous in the gospel MARIA
tive. 1t is expected the subject will
bring forth keen discussion.

There is more Cartarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney G. Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in dos
es from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t
acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case 1t
fails to cure. Send for circulars and

Corbett's Chances.

II the opinions Of experts Oh pugil.
ism mean anything Jim Corbett will
have few hackers among students Of
the game for his fight with Jeffries in
Frisco Aug. IA. The general belief is
that Corbctt is going to sure defeat.
George Considine Of New York, a big
bettor on fights, recently stated that II
any Of Corbett's admirers are willing
to take odds Of 2 to / for their money
he will bet them any part of $4,000 on
Jeffries.
Il really cannot see where Corbett
has one chance in a thousand of beat
ing Jeffries," says Considine. "In the
first place, he is not the great fighter
he was several years ago. He cannot
hit as hard now as he could then.
When he fought Jeffries at Coney Is.
land, New York, he was in better shape
than he will ever be again. In tina
fight Corbett hit Jeffries often enough
to beat a dozen fighters, and you re
member what little effect the blows
had on Jeffries. Corbett, in my est.
nation, has seen his best days as 9
fighter"

Motor Cyclists Use Head Gear.

Motor Cyclists Use Head Gear.
Fatal accidents caused by desperate
speed on a bicycle behind motor pace
have driven followers Of motor pace to
adopt the football headdress advocated
for so long by several trainers and
worn for the past several months by
little Joe Nelson and Bonnie Munroe.
These riders put on the headdress.
their motormen followed suit, and the
people at ace meets ~applauded them
for taking necessary precautions to
protect themselves against fractures
Of the skull. Munroe and Hunter, the
latter now pacemaker for Nelson, frac-
tured their skulls in a fall last Septem.
Der at Baltimore. Munroe now follows
Bob Schultz, and both have their heads
protected against trouble.
Nelson has found the headpiece not
at all uncomfortable and says that he
would not be without it. Upon it he
could strike head first, SO he says, and
not feel the jar at all, as there is a
large space in the top which takes up
the jar pneumatically. Nelson now
takes all the chances that are to be TAX
en- in the game and takes them fear
lessly. He stops at nothing and has
struck the rear tire of the motor while
going at a speed of LOT to the mile and
bounded back only to go forward again
and strike 1t once more.

No work In Cuba.

~ - H2aLa2Ht
II wouldn't advise any one to 60 to
Cuba with the idea of seeking employ
ment," said a young Philadelphia who
has just returned from there. my
health had been poor during the win
ter, and my doctor thought the climate
Of Cuba would benefit me, as it did.
The climate is all right, but there's as
much as / will say for the island. My
financial u were not great, and
when my money ran low and I found
u was being benefited l made up my
mind to stay longer IL / could get some
congenial employment.
"After two weeks OF constant look
ing around / had two jobs offered to
me. One was to 60 into the interior
and cut sugar cane with a gang Of
negroes for S. a month and my keep,
and the other was as waiter in a res
taurant for my board and lodging and
what l could pick up in tips. That's
why | came home sooner than l had
expected. l met a lot of fellows look
ing around down there. and they all
had the same story to tell."-Philadel-

Joe Kelley ON Pitching.


"Pitching these days isn't as hard as
1t used to be-" recently remarked Joe
Kelley, captain-manager Of the Cincin-
natl Reds. 1.-THE rules are SO strict now
that a player cannot talk to a pitcher,
and many Of the twirlers who have
gone up in the air under the old regime
are doing great work now.
TT used to be that when a club was
not hitting a pitcher it would try to
rattle him. Every time the players
passed him going to and from the field
something would be said to the pitcher
intended to get him sore, and If you
succeeded in getting him to talk back
you had him sure. That was always
Cy Seymour's trouble. There never
was a pitcher with such deceptive
rye as Cy had, but the opposing
players usually got him ratified before
the game was over, AMI he would give
ten or twelve bases on balls and throw
the game away.
"Under present conditions Cy would
be one Of the greatest pitchers in the
world, for no n would be allowed to
say a word to him."
