LOCAL MARKET IS
EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET
Hay Not Wanted at ANY Price-Same
Old Reason-Winter Apples Coming
Freely - Weekly Quotations.

The markets of the past week have
been quiet and even, and while in most
| lines the demand has been less than
noted for some time, vet tine quotations
hold up well. As an instance. hav is not
being bought by any of the shippers
owing to the inability to get cars: there
is no demand whatever, and vet the
price is up fully as high as it was Il
week or ten days ago before the short
age of ears began to be felt. The ex-
perience of all the hay shippers doubt
| less might be summed up in that of
one of them. who said: Il have over a
| thousand tons of hay on hand in the
| warehouse at this time. bought some
time ago and already paid for. | can't
take care of any more, and il | could
don't care to take any more chances
or tie up greater sum than | now have
invested What the shippers want is to
sell some of what they have on hand
until they do there will not be much
chance for the ranchers to sell any more
hay" The prices. as will be seen in
the market quotations published else
where. remain Just about as they were
q week ago.
Winter apples are being offered pref
ty freely. in response to the demand and
the prices paid bring in large lots of
all the varieties. There are Il number
of buyers mere who are willing to pay
prices that indicate Il profitable season
for the growers. 1t is the prediction
of many of the commission men that
apples will be lower for IL time after
the first offering of the new crop. and
that the price will then come up to n
better figure than has been realized for
several seasons. Greetings. Bcllnowcrs

Largest List OF Voters Ever Record

they were about to declare the books

Total.

The heavy registration is gratifying
not only from the fact that it indicates
heavy vote at the approaching election,
but also because it shows rapid increase
in population. Figuring on the usual
basis it indicates a population of more
than 1000 inhabitants, and this estimate
is not considered unreasonable. Not all
the voters of the city are included in
the above figures. and it should be re-
membered that none are included ex-
cept those living within the city limits,
leaving Il large number of residents on
the outskirts of the town who will vote
in other precincts. If these were all
included the estimate would come nearer
5000, and there are many who think the
latter figure would be very nearly cor
rect. At any rate. the registration
shows that North Yakima is growing
rapidly, since it includes nearly $50
more names shat OF two years ago.

Winters Fearful Fist.

William Winter, the dramatic
critic, is thought by some to write
the worst hand of any man living
There may have been giants in the
past, men like Horace Greeley, who
surpassed him, but no one his equal
remains. Some years ago Mr.. Win
ter was travelling in Scotland and,
having had many amusing expert
ences, wrote an account Of them to
e. 81. Stoddard in New York. Mr..
Stoddard received the letter at
breakfast and, combining familiari-
ty with the intuitions Of the poet,
managed to make it out and en-
ioyed several good laughs. He
glanced up at Mrs. Stoddard and
said: otis from William Winter.
Very funny. Want to read it
"You know I can never read a word
Of his writing" answered Mrs. Stod-
dard. ooh, that doesn't matterp '

letter over. cts Just as funny to

Another Dxspensia ouna.

Investigation has discovered that
dyspepsia can be cured by short in
tervals of exposure to intense cold,
followed by hearty eating. M. Raoul
Pictet, Swiss, was experimenting
with very low temperature. He had
produced an artificial temperature
In a sort of pit which caused the
thermometer to sink to 40 or $50
degrees below zero. Among other
experiments he exposed himself for
. brief interval to this temperature
by lowering himself into the pit.
On emerging he found himself in
tensely hungry and ate freely. The
process was repeated several times,
and as a result he found himself
cured Of chronic Indigestion, from
which he had suffered for years.

Aerial Naviuation,

With respect to combinations Of
vertical and horizontal movements
man is absolutely without expert
ence of them. Therefore, as all our
sensations Of movement are practi-
caliy in two dimensions, this is the
extraordinary novelty of aerial navi-
cation that it affords us experiences
not in the fourth dimension, it is
true, but in what is practically an
extra dimension, the third, so that
the miracle is similar. Indeed, I
cannot describe the delight, the
wonder and intoxication of this
free diagonal movement onward
and upward, or onward and down
ward, combined at will with brusque
changes of direction horizontally

MUsTACHES AND CRIMES.

Frank Richardson, writing in the
Cornhill Magazine, insists on the
dishonesty of hiding the telltale up
per lip. 'Of all the great criminals
OF our day." he says, 81 can recall
none who dared to practice with a
naked face. Drs. Lamson and Neil
Cream iudiciously concealed as
much of their physiognomy as
might be. Fowler, who murdered
by night at Muswell hill, and Jabez
Balfour were bearded men. Vain
wright wore the 'mustachios' of his
period. James Canham Read and
Deeming and Bennett Of the boot
lace murder were possessed of
mouths that prudence compelled
them to conceal.
'"The blue burglarious jowl is a
fantasy of the novelist. No burglar
goes about with face that in itself
amounts to a previous conviction.
When he is in jail matters are DIFF
ferent, for our prison authorities
wisely decree that the convict's face
shall be shaved and his head be
shorn. They at least insist on see
ing the man as he is"

lroned Shoes.

Shoes of nearly every description
are ironed with hot or warm iron.
A short time ago it would have
been thought peculiar to iron mems
shoes with warm iron instead Of
freeing them, but it is being done
with the best results in some fac
tories, This does not include wax
or other greasy calf stock, but it
does include box calf. Of course
the warm iron process is much
cheaper than the old method Of
freeing and dressing. Therefore its
general adoption is not unlikely. It
is not unusual now to iron patent
finished leather, but it is usually
preceded with a light dressing of oil.

We must go back to the commissions
of nature for more dreadful story OF
swift death than occurred at the lro-
quois Theater at Chicago in the mat
inee hour of Dec. 80. The statistics
show $50 humans dead, and scores In
jured. There have been greater nor
rors by flood. by volcanoes, by the up
rising of natures forces, but If there
was ever a more appalling chapter
traced to mans hand history falls to
tell it save in the records of battle
alone. OF fire horrors, as they are
commonly known, certainly nothing
like it ever occurred in this country or
any other.
There an ornate million-dollar thea
ter. assured, of course, as thoroughly
freproof. Within were $500 women
and children, s.nd few men-a typi-
cal, merry, holiday matinee audience.
One thousand were in the galleries.
There were many entrances offering
Une usual number of exits, all, of
course, sufficient to depopulate the
building in case of fire. We have all
seen that often enough on the pro-
grams. There were five men in uni
forms in the aisles, provided by the

pN scene. There was darkened
