FIRE CAUSES HEAVY LOSS.
Chas. McAllister's Hophouse and
Contents Burn, Uninsured.

The hophouse owned by Charley
McAllister and ten tons of hops were
destroyed at Old Town Saturday
morning about six o'clock. No in
surance was carried on the building
or its contents. The fire, which
started about six a. M, burned the
building to the ground despite the
fact that every man in the vicinity
made desperate attempts to quench
the flames, which soon converted the
old building into mass of smolder-
ing ruins.
Mr.. McAllister had made an effort
to have the building and hops in
sured few days ago, but Mr.. Sin
clair, H. B. Scudder's representative,
considered the place poor risk and
SO the loss will amount to the en-
tire value of the property destroyed,
or about $4,000.

AN OPEN LETTER.
A Recent Visitor in the City Appre-
ciates Cordiality of Yakima.

Editor Herald: AS l leave your
rapidly growing city, after a most
interesting visit, l am constrained to
say few kind words.
AS will be known to many, my
principal reason for coming was to
visit my brother, whom | had not
seen for thirty-two years, and this
has proven to me an inestimable
privilege. The hospitable enter
tainment in his comfortable home,
and kindness manifested by all con-
nected with it, to make my stay a
pleasant one, can never forget.
However, beyond this, my visit
has proved specially interesting. My
brother being one of the early set
tiers and founders of the city, ! was
anxious to see the place and learn
something of the people among
whom he was living. There are
many things about the city which
are very commendable and not least,
your wide and prospectlvely Deauti-
full avenues and magnificent school
buildings. But what interested me
more than anything else was the
heartiness of the people, at least
those came in contact with I was
introduced to so very many and was
greeted with such uniform and
heartfelt cordially that was made
TO feel much at home, and in leav-
ing ! want to say to you all d lend.
y good bye JOSEPH GREEN.
(Mr Greene is a brother of Jas.
Greene of this city and spent a few
days with him last week. His home
is in Canada and this was his first
visit to the northwest.)

chosen after a full guaranty that he
would devote his time and energy to
the enterprise. The exposition will
be located on the campus of the Uni
versity of Washington, a tract Of
upwards of $50 acres being avail
able. The site is one Of exceptional
natural beauty, surrounded by grand
mountain and water scenery, is cas-
lily accessible by many lines of trans
portation and is ideally adapted to
the purpose.
1.-THE people of this state may we'll
be proud of theih state university,
which now has an enrolment of
more than 1000 students, represent
ing every country and all of the ad-
joining states. 1t is conducted on
broad, sound principles and is des-
tined to become the leading educa-
tional institution of the Pacific coast.
A large proportion of the vast ex-
penditures necessary to identifying
and improving the grounds, creating
landings on Lakes Washington and
Union, providing additional lines of
transportation and erecting the nee
essary buildings will be so expended
as to make the Improvements perma-
nent and leave them for the benefit
and pleasure of the University of
Washington. The three years of
publicity and campaign of education
that will be carried on through the
newspapers, magazine and special
publications in every state in the
union will result in great good to
every section of the whole Pacific
coast. We want the cooperation
and support of every interest and
every individual and we must have
it in order to bring the best results.
The exposition will be held in the
summer of 1909, from June l to Oc-
tober 18th, and l firmly believe that
it will be the greatest event of it's
character that will have transpired
in the west and will be attended by
more enduring benefits.
"The people of North Yakima and
vicinity are to be congratulated up
on the wonderful progress they are
making and have made. 1t is mar
velous that so much could and has
been accomplished in two decades.
1t is almost incredible to believe that
such a fine and prosperous city can
be made in that short time and a
country developed to fully support it.
This is indeed garden spot"

Fire Destroys a Shed.

At IL o'clock Monday night the
fire department was called to South
First street, south Of the livery
stables where a shed was burning.
The shed was owned by Geo. Allen
and Doc Kenely, and was being used
by the latter in his veterinary prac-
tice. 1t contained quantity of loose
hay and a buggy. The loss on shed
and contents was estimated at about
$500, partially insured.
In all probability the fire was
started by hoboes. many of whom
had used the shed as roosting
place for some time. Eighteen were
driven out one night recently.
