Blaze Started by Boys.

Firemen and policemen were called to
the property of T. A. Havemeyer, near
Overlook Inn, last night between and 7
o'clock, because of fire in the woods. 1t
is supposed the fire was started by boys
who had been gathering nuts in the woods
during the afternoon. No. chemical COM
pany was first to respond. and then the
police from the Anacostia station appeared
upon the scene and worked hard to save
the buildings upon the property from being
reached by the flames.
When the supply of chemicals had be-
come exhausted the firemen beat the flames
with branches of trees, brooms or what
ever they could get for such use. 1t was
useless to summon a steam engine COM
pany to the scene of the fire on account of
the lack of water. The flames were ex-
tinguished before any damage was done
except the destruction of the underground
and dry grass.

Mountain Forests Afire.

report coming from the upper waters
of the Potomac river states that the forests
on the mountains on both sides the river
are on fire for miles below Cumberland,
and the scene, particularly after dark, is
most spectacular. In places the flames
seem TO be bursting from an immense oven,
and in others the tops OF the trees are
ablaze, like a great torch. shooting the
flames high in the air.
The blaze covers a wide area and seems
to be greater on the West Virginia side
the river and has destroyed much timber
and fencing. and has approached danger
ously near the farm buildings that dot the
mountain. keeping the farmers busy fight
ing the flames.

all the members of the colony are well
pleased with the country and are do
ing well.
The entire country is adapted to
dry land alfalfa and two crops are
grown easily without irrigation. Wa
ter is found but short distance un-
der the surface all over the district
and the soil is warm and easily work.
ed. The altitude of the country is
about 1850 feet, or the same as La
Grande, and watermelons and other
tender fruits grow well.
He says the reason the country has
not been settled long ago is that the
pioneers ewre stockmen and needed
the country for range purposes and
did not encourage farming. For this
reason many people thought the bench
land unproductive, but upon trial it is
found to produce alfalfa. fruit. wheat,
barley and oats in abundance.

had transpired.
The matter OF selecting his success

ence filled the Frazer theater to wit
ness the second presentation of
queen Esther" the great sacred

her fine soprano voice was pleasing

MONOPOLY BUSTED.
Chelan Man Invested on Strength Of
One Years License.

After having invested $4,000 in q
new hotel building at Cashmere, ir

town council grant him an exclusive
license to sell liquors in the town
stephen S. Bailey. late of Seattle and
formerly proprietor of the HoteI
Northern, is about to be put out of
business by the fact that the town was
carried by dry" ticket at last Tues
days election, says a Seattle dis
patch.
He still has a fighting chance to Sc
cure a renewal OF his license for an
other year, but the anti-saloon ele-
ment of the town are after him.
and he may be unable to secure IL. or
having secured II may be unable TO
defend 1t through the year
People OF Seattle who have fol-
lowed his career know Bailey as a
cool fighter in politics, and bold and
daring gambler, and II was reported
at the time that he lost not less than
$4,000 betting on the election of
George Turner as governor of Wash
ington In the election last fall. Short
ly after that election the announce
ment was made that he was through
with city life and would retire to the
vale OF Cashmere to become far
mer and run little country hotel.
preliminary to going into the hotel
business in Cashmere he applied TO
the county commissioners of Chelan
county for saloon license there. The
anti-saloon element of Cashmere pro-
tested against the license so strong
ly that the commissioners refused 10
grant 1t. Thereupon an agitation was
instituted to incorporate the town. and
after vigorous campaign it was car
ried and council was elected which
was favorable to Bailey and his en-
terprise. After but little delay the
council fixed the saloon license in the
town at $1,000, chiefly for the purpose
Of giving Bailey the exclusive privilege
Bailey was then granted the license
and proceeded to erect the hotel.
The hotel has now been operation
FOR nearly year. The license is soon
TO expire, and will run out in time to
enable him to ask for n renewal of IL
Turing the incumbency of the present
council. body Of men favorable to
him. 1t is anticipated that the re-
1ewal will be granted despite the fact
hat the town has voted to go dry"
or the next two years by eiecting an
council.
