FAIR HORSE TRADE.
Prime Heavy Drafters Lead in Outside
Demand-Other Kinds Slow.

Chicago, Sept. 22.-The volume of
receipts to date for the week is above
general expectations, the arrivals for
four days aggregating 1854 head,
against 1928 head for the same period
last week, 1854 for the same dates last
year and 1892 for the corresponding
period in 1903. The gain for the week
to date is around 726 horses over last
week, $50 over the same period in
1904 and 1902 head over the CORE
spending four days of the same week
in 1903 The gain for the month last
year totals 5000 horses. For the year
to date upward of 100000 horses have
been received at this market, making
a gain over the same period last year
of around $500 head. Outside demand
from all quarters appears to center on
prime heavy drafters, and although the
offerings have been evenly throughout
the week at nominally the range of
s17O@220. with a few fancy arrivals a
point higher Many thin, sunburnt
offerings of medium weight. We're in
cluded among the receipts that found
narrow outlet at unevenly lower
prices. While the general range Of

a decline of $500 during the week
They are practically out of season
classes and are sold nominally on
speculative account Small southern
chunks are only moderately active and
relatively cheaper than week ago
Big logsers hold steady at $15O@1S0

GREAT MUSICAL FESTIVAL
TWO CONCERTS TO BE GIVEN BY
THE LOCAL CHORAL UNION
IN WHITMAN CHAPEL
Great Preparations Being Made for
the Event During Commence
ment Week.

Commencement week at Whitman
college this year will be ushered in by
two of the finest concerts ever at
tempted in walla Walla-the musical
festival concerts Of the Choral Union.
For these concerts the chorus will
number about 60 voices and there will
be the accompaniment of an an or
chestra of about 20 pieces, AMI the
piupe organ.
The solo parts of the various works
will be ably sustained by the popular
soprano, Mrs. L. L. Tallman; Miss
Beulah Rankins, a talented pupil OF
the conservatory of music: Mr.. Jesse
Bucholz, tenor soloist, and choirmaster
of the Westminster Congregational
church of Spokane; and Mr.. Herbert
Taylor, basso, of Liverpool, England,
who is now a resident of Seattle.
Monday night, June II. the pro-
gram will consist of several solo and
orchestral numbers, followed by the
tuneful cantata, "Hiawatha's Wedding
Feast" by Coleridge Taylor.
On Tuesday night, Handers sublime
and inspiring oratorio "Tne Messiah"
will be given by the combined festival
force SOloiStS chorus and orohoStra
This oratario should appeal to all
people whether musical or not, as it's
sentiments are the hopes and aspira-
lions of Christendom.
It is confidently hoped that all peo-
pie Of the city will literally support
this festival to the end that in future
years a greater degree of excellence
may be attained.

ARMY OFFICER SAYS IT WILL
NOT HINDER THE NAViGA-
TON OF SNAKE.
Company Plans to Pump Supply From
the River by Means of Two
Turbines.

Major w. c. Langftt, corps of engi-
neers, United States army, has made a
report on the irrigation canal now I'M
der construction along the left bank
of Snake river near Five Mile rapids,
in which the engineer says that after
a careful examination of the canal he
navigation of the river.
Five Mile rapids in the Snake river
situated about five miles above the
junction of that river with the Column
bia river. The canal leaves the Snake
river in the pool formed by Five Mile
rapids, running down the left bank Of
the Snake and finally discharges into
that river about 1900 feet below. The
canal is to be so feet wide on the bot
tom, with side slopes of one on one,
the depth of water in it at low water
to be five feet.
The fall obtained by the canal is
stated by the company to be from S5
to 1915 feet, depending on the stage of
water. At the lower end of the canal
they propose to install two Leffel tur-
bines. Each is rated at 3O0-horsepow-
er and requires $4,000 cubic feet Of
water per minute to operate it, thus
making total of $4,000 cubic feet per
minute, which the canal must supply
to operate both the wheels, or about
S33 cubic feet per second. The two
turbines will operate a pump with
combined capacity of about $500 cubic
feet of water per minute or about AZ
cubic feet per second.
With this water it is proposed to ir-
rigate about 1000 acres of land which
it is claimed cannot be irrigated by
other methods on account of it's eleva-
tion above tributary streams. The low
water discharge of the Snake river is
in the neighborhood of 10000 cubic feet
per second, and it is evident therefore,
that the AZ cubic feet per second taken
out for irrigation purposes could have
no appreciate influence on navigation,
and the same is practically true of the
S33 cubic feet which they divert
through the canal above Five Mile
rapids to pump the other AZ cubic feet
