Give, oh, give me back my heart!"

the United States during the year 1904.
The wardens OF the State prisons and the
sheriafs of the counties are being request
ed to act as special agents to report GER
tain facts concerning every person dehN-
cred into their custody. Some counties
have not been heard from In some per
haps there are no jails, in others perhaps
the local jails are no longer used. in still
others the sheriffs have possibly neg

of other business will not cause the

SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE
John ID. Dill, of Wenatchee, Chosen
For the Long Term

The selection of candidate on the
republican ticket for Judge of the Su-
perior Court for the district composed
of Okanogan, Douglas, Ferry and Che
Ian counties has been in the balance for
two weeks. The republican county
chairmen Of the respective counties
having met in Wenatchee two weeks
ago last Saturday for the purpose OF Sc
lecting a successor TO M. B. Malloy, re-
signed, failed to come to an agreement
and adjourned to meet last Tuesday,
August 30th, f. NJ. Dallam, of Okan-
ogan, being absent.
After brit fly deliberating on the mat
ter John d. Dill, of Wenatchee, was
chosen for the long term and VIM. C.
Brown, of Republic, for the short term
which commences after the election
and ends on the 10Th of January follow
ing.
The selection of Mr.. Dill for the long
term will of course be satisfactory to
the members of the republican party
and to the people of Chelan county
generally.
Mr.. Dill has lived in Wenatchee for
more than three years, coming from
Spokane.
Some time after his arrival he was
elected to the Office of Mayor of Wenat-
chez. Being a lawyer by profession he
resigned the Office of mayor after hold
ing it for almost a year, to accept the
appointment of city attorney, the duties
of this office being more TO his liking.
Mr.. Dill has made many friends in
Chelan and the adjoining counties since
he cast his lot with the people of We
natchee. He had built up a good law
practice and enjoyed the confidence and
respect of all who came in contact with
him either in a business or social way.
No man who ever had occasion to have
business relations with him, or entrust-
ed John D. Dill with his legal affairs,
has had cause to regret his selection OF
counsel. In the community in which
he lives and is best known he enjoys
the confidence and respect OF men OF
all parties alike.
| He was member of the law firm OF
Dill & Grass, until recently, when he
transferred his interest. in that firm to
Mr.. o. M. Cengdon.
He has the ability to discharge the
duties of the high Office for which he
has been nominated, and to which he
will be elected. He has the indepen-
dence to be free from bias and spirit
of fairness that will make him just to
| friend and foe alike.

wenatchee VIII Have Brewery

1t is settled beyond doubt that We
natchee is to have brewery, and that
at once. NJ. Schuster and Matthew
Kainbitsch, of Spokane, have purchased
lots on the west side OF Columbia street
10Oxl20 feet, and they will commence
the erection of Il S25, 900 plant immedi'
ately. The lots are located just west of
Leroy Wright's warehouse, and will be
entirely covered by the buildings of the
new company. 1t is understood that
two cars of machinery are on the way
from the east and that stone and brick
structure will be started and completed
as soon as possible. Mr.. Kainbitsch is
a practical brewer, having been head
man in the New York brewery, at Spo-
kane, for number of years which is a
sufficient guarantee that the new COM
pany will maks as good a beer as is
manufactured anywhere in the state

A Woman Of Nerve

Mrs. C. Y. Carpenter, of lone, met
with painful accident about ten days
ago and at the same time demonstrated
how unnecessary a surgeon is when the
patient has sufficient knowledge and
grit. While attending to her household
duties she got severe fall and struck
her nose on sharp piece of wood tear
ing the skin from nearly one half that
member in rough irregular shape. AT
the time she happened to be alone and
as it was over two miles to the nearest
neighbor she could not go for help but
being graduated nurse from Chicago
hospital, she happened to have some
surgical needles and horse hair at hand,
so she stanched the flow of blood, p aced
a mirror before her on the table, and
stitched the skin back in its proper
place so neatly that when fully recover
ed it will be almost impossible to detect
even scar, where another person
would have been horribly disfgured. -
