Home Doctoring.

If you cut your finger, don't tie
rag round it. Let the tap run on it
till it feels numb with cold, and then
sprinkle little salt on the place. 1t
will ache for minute, but the bleed
ing stops at once, and the pain is on
ly momentary. If your nose bleeds,
hold your head back, steep hand
kerchief in water, and put it behind
your ears and on the top of your
spinal column, underneath the collar.
You will find this far better than the
door key down your back, and, if the
bleeding doesn't stop that way, drop
some cold water or cold metal-such
rs Il large key-down your backbone.
1t is unpleasant, but it stops the bleed
ing. The very best thing for head
ache is some eau-de-Cologne behind
the ears and cool wind on the fore
head. II there is nobody handy to
supply the wind, use the bellows, and,
ii you have no bellows, the next best
thing is the cold blade of the bread
knife stepped in water. There is no
better cure for neuralgia than mar
bic mantlepiecc, or, if the fire has
made the marble hot, Il windowpane.
Put your two hands flat upon the
marble or the glass until the palms
and finger-tips are very cold, then
place the hands, with fingers tip to
tip, upon your forehead, and draw
them gently back to the temples with
Il cold thumb behind each ear. You
can easily massage your own neural-
gia away in this way, or get someone
to do it for you. Remember, for
headache, toothache, neuralgia, and
amy of the little ills that nervousness
brings on, cold is IL better cure than
heat, and an open window will do
YOU far more good than all the antipy
! rine in the world.

by some scattering shots which fell

To Make Several INSPECTIONS.

Civil Engineer T. A Noble of Seattle,
photographer of the L. 5. Geological
Survey, arrived in the city Saturday
morning and is now in the Tietan basin
making general inspection of the pro-
posed Cowiche and Wide Hollow canal
of which much has been said but very
little accomplished in the way of ma
terial advancement toward the ultimate
success of the project.
Mr.. Noble has been sent here by
order of Superintendent F. II. Newell
and his report whether favorable or
otherwise will largely influence the de-
partment in its final decision in the
matter.
The plan of the Cowiche and Wide
Hollow irrigation canal is a project
that will irrigate good many
thousands of acres of now barren but
easily productive land if water can be
placed upon it, and if the reclamation
department can be induced to take action
in the proposition it will be a-Godsend
to this particular section and in fact
benefit the entire contiguous country.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
URGED TO PR0LONG VISIT.
Senators Foster and Ankcnv Believe
He Should Inspect Irrigation
Development in Valley.

In response to a telegram forwarded
by Congressman Jones to Senators A. q
Foster and Senator Ankeny at Wash
ington city, urging them to induce the
President, if possible. to extend the
time of his visit in this valley for the
prime purpose of inspecting hurriedly
the irrigation development of the sur
rounding country, the following dispatch
was received from Washington's sena-
tors Saturday morning
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 20.
Hon. w. l.. JONES,
North Yakima, Wash.
President flooded with requests to
make changes in his schedule. Deter
mination at present seems to be not to
make any change in any instance.
Please advise regarding nature of local
reception. Have urged President to
extend visit to North Yakima to include
inspection of irrigation development,
and while this may result favorably,
still plan for local reception should be
based for present on 30.mnute stop.
a. G. FOSTER,
LEVI ANKENY.
1t is to be hoped that the president
will find it eXpedient to comply with
the urgent request and desires of the
states representatives in congress, but
in view of the difficulty experienced in
the mapping out of such an extensive
itinerary, it is hardly probable that any
changes OF such material nature will be
permitted by the management of the
long trip.

TWO PRISONERS ESCAPE
FROM COUNTY JAIL
Pick Lock of Their Cage and Then
Opening a Breach in Brick Wall
Make Good Their Escape.

About 4 o'clock Sunday morning, as
near as can be ascertained, from several
of the prisoners, Gustav A. Lind alias
Slim Anderson and Robert Wagnon, two
of the smoothest criminals the author
tiles of this county have yet had the
pleasure of dealing with, made good
their escape from Jail after picking the
lock of the cage, which held them sup
posedly secure, and then by the diligent
application of Il long iron pipe, serving
as battering ram breach in the wall
large enough to permit the body of a
man to crawl through was effected, and
much to the chagrin of Sheriff Grant the
above named prisoners are now free.
The escape was made from the rear of
the Jail and the wall through which they
battered is at least two feet in thickness.
The other prisoners say they were not
awakened during the night and heard
nothing of the heavy pounding that was
necessarily going on either within or
without the Jail. 1t is possible and very
probable that assistance from the out
side was given the men by aiding them
to make the opening in the wall. Sheriff
Grant says that Saturday evening a
thorough search was instituted covering
every niche or possible hiding place
where anything might have been con-
cealed that would assist the prisoners in
escaping, and the result of this search
found nothing. Jailor Nat Yeates is
positive the cage in which the prisoners
were placed was carefully locked on Sat-
urday night, and if this is true, as I'M
questionably it must be, the lock was
picked with a wire or by means of a
skeleton key. The lock was found hang
ing upon the staple, however, re-
fastened. The hole through which the
men escaped was small one and opened
into the wood shed situated at the rear
of the Jail. The loud breathing of Slim
Anderson as he was squeezing himself
through awakened two OF the other pris-
oners who were sleeping near by and
enabled them to get a glimpse of the
six-foot-four criminal. They say
he came very near sticking and
prayed pitiously with his associate,
Robert Wagnon, to pull him through.
The authorities are on the alert and
making every effort to recapture the fell
lows. All the nearby towns and villages
have been notified OF the escape and cir
culars sent out. A suitable reward will
be paid for their apprehension Both
characters have served terms in the
penitentiary and are bad men. They
are expert box car thieves and are
awaiting trial upon this charge. Robert
