ACADEMY STOCKHOLDERS PLANS
Discussion as to Use of Fund from Sale Of
Site Varied

Several different plans FOR dsposing o. the ss7ooo
which has been realized for the site OF the old
Academy OF Music. IN Brooklyn. are being dis
cussed by The directors. one is the building
other site OF an opera house that would command
the presence IN Brooklyn OF the best productions
IN the musical world Ex-Controller Coler. who
does not think such venture would pay, favors
the construction OF semi-public hall which by
its very nature would be exempt from taxation. A
building like Faneun Hall IN Boston. or Cooper
Union. IN New-York. would be about what Brooklyn
needs. he thinks. The saving OF the annual tax OF
from $1,000 70 2ooo0 a 100000 investment
would make the difference between success and
failure IN such a venture. he declares.
The general proposition made is to divide $4,000
Of the S5I7 900 between the stockholders. and use
the remaining $4,000 as q nucleus for raising
capital Of between $4,000 and 100000 by public
subscription. The entire proposition may be aban-
doned, however, as IL is possible tho stockholders
cannot agree on the kind Of a building 20 be put
up. There will be meeting OF the directors to
discuss the proposition next Monday night.

A Fact, Nevertheless.

In commenting OH our article in
which we mention the fact the
that the government engineers re-
ported that the Columbia river was
navigable for battle ships up to this
place, the Yakima Herald says.
"All of which is very interesting
to know, perhaps, but just why
any officer would want to run a
warship up to Kennewick is not
clear. 1t is to be hoped the occa-
sion will never arise.
We don't know as the officer has
sent sent in such an order, or if
the occasion will ever require such
an order, but if it does there is
some satisfaction in knowing that
we can deliver the goods.

The Wolf Hunt Is Over

The first wolf hunt has been
pulled off, and considering the cir
cumstances it was a Success. OF
course we did not expect there
would be many come at this time.
There were too many considera-
tons that took such a thing cut of
the list OF probabilities. An organ
lied wolf hunt as means of sport
in which the town people take a
prominent part is something out of
the ordinary il this part of the
world, and the people did not
grasp the idea as readily as the will
when it is better understood. How.
ever, there was good turn out,
both of town people from this city
and the various towns along the
line, and of farmers from all ovel
the district. The hunters met al
the ranch house Of Mr.. Richards
in Horse Heaven, and from there
took to the level bunch grass coun

If anyone has been sitting around
town imagining we are not grow
ing he wants to take rig and drive
around the suburbs. He will then
be surprised at the amount Of land
that is being put in cultivation and
the houses that are being erected.
Nearly all the land that was sold at
the sale recently held by the North
ern Pacific has been cleared and
put i'll crop, either alfalfa or fruit.
This land constitutes the biggest
part of the area between the rail
road and the Columbia river. Mr..
Beach has also been selling consid-
cradle land in his addition lately
and it is being improved by the pur-
chasers as fast as it is sold. Now
that the work of irrigating is about
to be closed down on account of
the water being shut off in the
ditch for the season, those who
have purchased land this summer
and put in all their time getting it
under cultivation, are turning their
attention to the erection of resi-
deuces, and in month or so the
house famine will be relieved to a
certain extent. This winter prom,
ises to be busy one i'll building
circles in this city.

try along the south line of Yakima
county. We wish we had room in
which to describe the races that
took place during the day, but that
is impossible. The drive had only
proceeded about a mile from the
the starting point when the first
wolf was jumped, and Immediately
sighted by the dogs. The two
young dogs belonging to Mr.. Rich
ards We're in the slips and were
turned loose and made a fine race
along the side of a hill in full view
of the crowd, catching and killing
the wolf after a run of about half
mile. From that on till dark the
fun was fast and furious, a wolf
jumping as fast as he was needed to
fill in the time. Pretty races were
plentiful, but owing to the fact
that the visiting dogs were not in
proper training, a majority of the
wolves escaped. AS it it was there
were sufficient captured to keep up
the courage of the hunters, and
make everybody feel the day was
one to be remembered with pleas
tire. The. hospitality of the
people of the hills was highly
appreciated by the visitors who
were handsomely entertained at
the residences of Messrs. Richards
and Cresswell.

The Portage Road Progressing

A Walla Walla dispatch says:
Committees are out in the farming
sections of the county with sub
scription papere to raise the $1,000
apportioned Walla Walla county as
its share of the expense of building
the portage road at The Dalles.
Already number of wheat growers
have subscribed generous sums, and
few are opposed to the method Of
raising funds.
Umatilla county will commence
Immediately raising its pro rata.
Committees are appointed, but
have not commenced their work
yet. Gillian county has more than
raised its share, and other counties
along the Columbia are taking
steps to complete the amount.
DR.. N. G. Blalock says that aftel
considerable difficulty a contractor
has been found who is able to raise
the required bonds-$16o, ooo-and
will commence work as soon as
enough money has been subscribed
to guarantee him his money when
the work is completed.
DR.. Blalock also stated that the
locks built at Cascade Locks hac
the effect Of reducing freights al
most one half between the INLAND
Empire and Portland, and while
the portage road will not make SC
large reduction as the locks did
it will be enough to save the graf,
