WORSE THAN AN EARTHQUAKE.

1aiss Bessie Abett, Grand Opera sing-
 CT, Held UD by PittsburG Thugs.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 19. = With her right wrist swathed in bandages as the result of . bold highwayman's grip upon 1t Miss Bessie Abott, one of the prima donnas of the Metropolitan opera, returned from Pittsburg last night with thrilling story of her ex- perience as the latest victim of the reign of terror in that city.
 Miss Abott sang Saturday night in . concert at the Carnegie Music hall in Pittsburg, and the holdup occurred while she was being driven from the Hotel Schenley to the Union station. She said:
 We were driving through . rather lonely part of the suburbs-the hotel is some distance out-when suddenly the carriage stopped and a mans face was thrust into the carriage window.
 "T want your diamonds and all of your money! hs shouted. and I struck him in the face with big bouquet of roses full of thorns that I had. Then my maid began shoutipg in French for help. The robber seized mo by the wrist. and l thought he was going to break the bones. I screamed, and my sister and the maid screamed, and then a shot was fired.
 Immediately the robber released his hold on my wrist and made off.
 "The coachman drove like mad to the station. and we had just time to get into our car as the train started. We were all so nervous all night that we could not sleep. My diamond neck lace and a sum of money were iu my bag and are still there, but we are all as badly scared as if we had actually been robbed, I had e very distressing experience in the San Francisco earth quake. but Pittsburg robbers are worse than an earthquake"

Mr.. Kelly of the North Yakima
nursery informed us that their 150,-
coo trees which were set out in their
nursery here at the same time as
those of same age in their nursery on
Mob Hill are fully two weeks ahead.
This speaks we'll for reservation
lands as prospective fruit farms.
Everyone in this fiourishing burg
is busy. No one is idle. The many
buildings in course of construction
are being pushed to completion.
The Burk & Carver warehouse is
being rushed. Construction has
been somewhat delayed by slow de-
livery of brick, but Mr.. Carver says
this will not occur again. This
building is credit to the owners
and the town of Wapato, and shows
confidence in the future of the dis
trict.
From the various business houses
we were informed in that confident
manner which bespeaks the truth,
that business was good and for this
season of the year money was plenti-
full.
Messrs McCredy and Jones re-
spectively president and cashier of
the Wapato State bank, are pleased
with conditions, and the people seem
pleased with the bank.
The Wapato Development conf
pany is still selling town property at
good prices. A contract has just been
let for the clearing of the east forty
acres of its recent purchase of the
eighty acres adjoining Wapato on
the west. The original townsite is
almost entirely sold.
Mr.. c. S. Bilger, the genial man
ager of the Hub Mercantile company,
is building a fine home, which for
architectural and domestic appoint
ments would command attention in
any town in the state. Mr.. Douglass,
Mr.. Bilger's able assistant manager,
is watering the lawn in front of Mr..
Bilger's present residence, where he
will reside later. This looks inter-
esting for at least two persons.

The market was steady yesterday

was good.
Strawberries, now prominent
feature in the local markets, made
no change in price, and the supply
is good. The fruit is large, but the
flavor and color Of those that are
being marketed at this time have
been hurt to some extent by the cool
wather and rain. Prices are expect
ed to drop today, owing to looked
for increase in supply. The growers
assert that the berries will not get
much cheaper, on account of the
shortness of the CROP
The cool weather has seriously in
terfered with the haymaking, and
the first crop of alfalfa is now ready
for cutting. Many of the farmers
are taking the risk, and are cutting
this week.
Hops have been greatly benefited
by the rains, and are making rapid
growth.
A heavy wheat crop is practically
assured. Reports from Horse Hea-

OCEAN LINER DELAYED.

This was the excuse recently given

bottom and sides of this great vessel.

MUST HAVE SHIPPING FACILITIES
Advises Cooperation of Farmers i'm
Encouraging North Coast or
Other Railways.

Editor Herald: There is consid-
cradle feeling working up as to ac
tual conditions Of shipping facilities
given to the farmers of the Yakima
valley, from Ellensburg to Kenne
wick. 1t is estimated conservatively
that half a million dollars was lost to
the farmers and shippers of this Sec
ton by the inability of the Northern
Pacific to furnish cars for hauling
perishable produce to the markets
during the season of 1905. 1t will
be as bad or worse this year, from
this time on, and until we can have
another railroad.
Everyone knows that the growers
of hay, fruit, melons and all vege-
tables have suffered every year for
several years past, owing to the ca
famine, and no one can now estimate
what a loss this means. Farmers
are compelled to use their credit
with the stores and banks, and u.s.
ually try to estimate the time of sell
ing. In too many cases they have to
stand off the merchant and bank
time after time. AS last resort
they will put potatoes in pits, while
quantities of vegetables that cannot
be pitted are destroyed by rot, and
cause total loss.
Ask the farmer in the Selah, the
Mckee, the Natchez. the Ahtanum,
the reservation, and up here on the
hill, and stories of losses are heard
in every direction. Ask them wheth-
er they want feeders to the Northern
Pacific, or a competing line, and see
what they will say.
OF course, the farmers cannot build
railway to salt water, although
what they are now compelled to lose
would do it in four or five years, but
they can give every encouragement
and moral support to anyone who
will.
The city council, the county coun-
Gil and every citizen in this great
Yakima valley should do everything
possible to make easy the building

tate man can honestly tell an in

can ship, and 1t is true that we do,
