Tries to Save Train

Petrol Davis, of the lumber company
was walking down the track from Chi
waukum last Thursday just ahead of
the train that was wrecked four miles
west of here. He saw the rock lying on
the track and piece of rail about four
foot long which had been broken by
the rock land at once made up his mind
to save the train which he heard COM
ing behind him. He ran back as fast
as possible, waving his hat TO the engi
neer, and when the engine passed him,
about hundred yards from where the
rock lay, he followed to the engine
crew ''for Gods sake stop, the track is
out" Then they made an effort to stop
the train, but it was no use. They were
too close to the break and the train was
long and heavy one. Mr.. Davis says
if the air brakes had been applied when
he first signaled the train to stop it
might have been possible to avoid the
wreck, but the engineer must have
thought it was someone trying 10 get
on the train. After the engine passed
Mr.. d. he thought CT saving himself,
and it was well, as some cars went off
the track not far from where he crouch
ed under ledge of rock. A rather pc
culiar co-incident is the fact the rail
broken is the identical one which was
put in place of one broken last April by
falling rock. 1t will be remembered
that p. G. McGregor's engine was
wrecked at that time but both he and
the fireman saved themselves by jump

In freight train wreck last Monday
six miles west of Index, in which the
engine and eight cars were derailed,
Engineer W. A. Ellis, we'll known here,
sustained injuries to his hip and spine.
The latest report is that his injuries are
not of serious nature and it is believed
that he will be out again in ten days or
two weeks. He is in the hospital at
Seattle at present. All the other train
men escaped injury. The wreck was
caused by loose tire on one of the en-
CINE drivers.

A JAPANESE SCRAP PILE
In Which Agent Long Gets Mixed Up
in Trying to Prevent
Tragedy

Last Monday evening sixteen or
eighteen Jap laborers got into gener-
al melee among themselves just in front
OF the depot. There had been a jap
anese pow WOW, but as no one here
about understands the language it is
next to impossible to get at the bottom
of the trouble. However, their book
man, who keeps their time and acts as
go-between for the railroad company
and an agent Of the Oriental Company
which supplies the railroad company
withJapanese laborers were engaged in
an argument on the track in front of
the depot, when all at once the agent
struck the bookman and knocked him
down. After he got his man down he
started in to finish him up by beating
his head against the rail, about this
time sixteen other Japs rushed in to
take hand, and for a time there was
some lively knocking and punching.
They were all tied up in knot, and
every little brown man was trying to
hit somebody. They were right on the
track, and so busy they did not notice
that a string of cars was approaching
and would reduce the whole bunch to u
human scrap pile. Station Agent Long
saw the probability of a tragedy and
rushed in to get them off the track.
Then the whole gang of Japs turned on
him and began to assault him with
Jumps of coal. Mr.. Long, who is SO much
larger than Jap as Russia is larger
than Japan, knocked three or four of
them down, and with the assistance of
three other railroad men got them off
the track just in time.
The ringleader, or rather, the one
that struck the first blow and started
the trouble was later arrested and
brought before Judge Bjork who de-
cided that $500 and costs would APP
pease the outraged majesty of the law.
In default of payment Mr.. Okuku, or
whatever his name is, will serve time
in the county bastile at Wenatchee.

P. V. Ashford, the brakeman who
was killed at Mason Creek on the same
afternoon that John McGourty was
killed, lived in Everett He had only
been in the employ of the railroad COM
pany few weeks. He was uncoupling
the helping engine from train and
was caught between the front of the
engine and the car and literally ground
to pices. After being crushed between
the engine and car the engine ran over
him. Just exactly how the accident &C.
Cured will probably never be known,
but it is believed that he, being new
man, neglected to cut off the air brakes
and when the coupling broke the air
brakes set automatically on the train,
causing it to stop suddenly with the re-
suit that the engine and car came to-
gether with great force. The body OF
Ashford was sent to Everett last Fri
day.

FRIES 20 Drown Herself
ing.

A woman by the name OF Adolph,
who has been waiting on table at the
mill company's boarding house, tried
to drown herself Sunday afternoon.
The facts, as near as we are able to
get at them, are about as follows: She
was out on the river in boat with a
man by the name OF Thomas and asked
him what he would do If she jumped
out of the boat; thinking she was jest
ing, he remarked that he would let her
drown. Suddenly she leaped from the
boat into the water. Thomas caught
hold of her clothes and yelled for help.
1t seems the woman was in earnest as
she struggled to free herself and said
she wanted to die. The cries brought
Charles Ackley, to the scene, and with
his help the woman was dragged
ashore. Not much the worse for her
cold bath, she was soon brought around
all right with the help OF some slight
restoratives.
On Monday she appeared to have re-
covered sufficiently from the suicidal
desire TO go to work again at her old
Mace

BEST PROFIT
WHERE BEET PULP FAITENS
STOCK FOR MARKET.
Valuable and Interesting Expert
ments by Agricultural Col
lege at Fort Collins
Last Winter.

Many sections OF Colorado ale noted
for the excellent quality Of cattle
grown, but only recently has much
attention been given to the finishing
of these cattle for market. The
average value OF S-year-old steer in
Colorado is given at sSS to SIS, while
steer OF the same age in Iowa
brings an average price OF SOS, or just
double the amount received for
Colorado steer. Yet comparison of
values placed on calves in the two
states will show a higher average
value on calves in Colorado than on
calves in Iowa.
II order to determine the relative
value OF grains grown in Colorado
with corn shipped in from Nebraska
and Kansas, and O. beet pulp as
cattle food, All experiment was con-
Quoted last winter by the Asricul-
tural college at Fort Collins. assisted
by the Great Western Sugar company
at Lovelani and the Z 5. depart
ment OF agriculture.
One hundred and fifty grade Short
horn and Hereford steers were
selected and fed for - weeks The
steers cost SO per hundred weight,
and weighed 900 pounds on an aver
age. In order that some comparison
might be made on the different feeds,
the steers were divided equally as
possible into three lots and fed as
follows Lot No. 1, beet pulp, alfalfa
hay, and mixture OF ground oats
and barley; lot No. ,, beet pulp,
alfalfa and ground corn; lot No. ),
beet pulp, alfalfa hay aud no grain
fed of any kind. All the steers had
what pulp they would eat at all times
without waste.
The amount Of grain led the two
lots vas small They were started
at two pounds each steer daily and
gradually increased until the close OF
the experiment. when they were get
ting an average Of ten pounds, with
a total average for the period Of 8 =
pounds daily. \ summary Of the re-
