Mrs. Logue's Father Arrives.

Mr.. Logue, the father of Geo.
Logue, the young man who COM
mitted suicide in his shack seven
miles west of Sawyer recently,
arrived from Washington, Iowa,
and is settling up his sons es-
tate. The 5000 in cash and pa
pers which were found on Logue's
person, has been handed over to
the father. The decedent was
about IS years Of age and was
generally respected. He was an
industrious young man, and had
no bad habits. For sometime he
had been in poor health, having
the consumption, but he was in
no immediate danger.
Logue was we'll known in Mi
not, having held a job as janitor
at the Minot school buildings last
winter. For sometime he had
been working for J. S. Welty
and he showed no signs Of insan-
ity. C. C.. C. Willis, in whose
charge the matter was placed,
called an inquest and the jury
found that the man had taken
his own life.
The mans mother does not
know that he committed suicide
and it is just as we'll that she
does not. The remains have
been inferred at Washington, the
old home.

YAKIMA IRRIGATION
PROJECT ASSURED

Prosser. Wash. Jan. 31.-The Tie
ton and Sunnyside irrigation projects
are assured by the signing here of the
government agreement by E. f. Benson
of the Prosser Falls Land & Power
company. All the other rights in the
Yakima river are now adjusted, and
Engineer Jacobs has wired Washing
ton from here that the slate is clean.
Taylor g. Kemp and Thompson &
Pratt, the two other firms having water
rights, signed the government agree
ment week ago.
The government is to take over the

water 400 acres Of his individual lands.
IL will allow ais cubic feet of water
to pass Prosser during August, and 229
during the balance of the irrigation
season, and also raise the dam in the
river here from 10 tc 10 feet. This will
leave ample power for manufacturing
purposes.
Engineer Jacobs said he believed the
work in this valley would continue for
l 3 years, until ST. 900, 900 are expend-
ed and 400, 900 acres Of land irrigated,
200, 900 of which will be in Benton
county.
This is the greatest day in Prosser's
history, even being collapsed In enthus-
iasm by the news, nearly a. year ago,
that Benton county had been created.
Predictions are freely made that Pros
ser will have.25 population in 10 years.

Christian, the ninth, the aged king of
Denmark, dean of the crowned heads
of Europe, father of King George of
Greese, of Queen Alexandria of Europe
Great Britain and Ireland, and of the
dowager empress Maria Feodorona of
Russia, grandfather of King Haakon,
the seventh, of Norway, and related by
blood or by marriage to most of the
European rulers, died with startling
suddenness in the Amalienborg palace
Monday evening. The successor to the
throne, Prince Ferdinand, his eldest
son, who will be known as Frederick
the eighth, was proclaimed Tuesday.
The following is the official bulletin
announcing his death:
His majesty died at $3.50 p. m. Az
ter his majesty had brought Monday
mornings audience to a close he APP
peared to be quite we'll, and proceeded
to luncheon as usual. Toward the end
of the morning he gave evidence of IN
disposition and was compelled to re-
tire, to bed at $3.50 p. m. His majesty
passed away peacefully the symptoms
indicating heart failure.
This bulletin tells concisely the story
of the death scene, which found every
one. even those who realized the in
creasing feebleness of the king, unpre-
pared for the sudden shock.
The death of King Christian has
plunged half the continent of Europe
into the deepest mourning and brought
a sense of personal loss as well as OF
sincere grief to every one throughout
the kingdom of Denmark.
Prince Frederick, the eldest son of
the late King Christina, who succeeds
to the throne, Was born June 3, 1913,
and was married July 2S,.1S69, to Prin-
cess Louisa, daughter of King Charles
XIV. o Sweden and Norway. The late
King Christians eldest daughter is
Queen Alexandria of England and his
son, Prince William, was elected king
of Greece under the title of George 1.

king, Marie Dagmsr, is the dowager
empress of Russia, Maria Feodorovna,
who was married to Alexander III. of
Russia. He died November I, 1894,
and his son, Nicholas, is now emperor
of Russia.
The sudden death of the king will
place the majority of the royal houses
of Europe in mourning. The rulers of
Russia, Great Britain, Greece, Sweden
and Norway are directly related to the
dead monarch, either personally or
through their consorts. His sons and
daughters were preparing for their an

pose of celebrating his ssth birthday,
Queen Alexandria received the news of
the death of her father at Windsor.

PASSENGER TRAINS
HEADON COLLISION

A fatal headon collision is reported
from Columbia Falls, Mont, at 1910
Monday night between Great Northern
Limited trains. Both firemen, names
unknown. are reported killed. Con-
ductor Quinn of the westbound limited
is repotrde badly hurt, and five passen-
gers are said to have been hurt. The
injured were taken to Whitefsh, Mont.
The triaus met on a level, straight
away track, where speed of 80 to 80
miles is ordinarily attained. Both en-
gines turned over and landed many
feet from the track. 1t is reported the
wreck took fire Immediately. The sur
ounding country is low and marshy
and it believed heavy fog prevailed
which contributed to the disaster An
engine from the Kalispell branch was
quickly run to the scene from,the juno
tion mile distant This was coupled
to the rear of the train and the cars
pulled away from the fire.
The engines in the wreck were of the
"Changhai" type, monster locomotives
with high drivers.
The eastbound trian was in charge
of Conductor Bert Robertson, and En-
gineer Therwichter. Conductor Quinn
and Engineer Barden were in charge
of the westbound limited. All the
trainmen involved belong to Whitefish
Montana. So far were the cars hurled
by the force of the collision that al
of the telegraph wires and poles by the
track were thrown down. A wreckinl
outfit was promptly dispatched from
, Whitefish.

HEPBURN TALKED
forest RESERVES

Washington, Jan. 30.-The Chinese
boycott and the administration of the
forest reserves divided the attention of
the serate Monday. The Chinese ques-
ton came up IN connection with a res
olution by Senator Tillman directing
an investigation by the committee on
immigration. Senator Tillman modi-
fled the resolution by ommitting the
major portion of the preamble and af-
ter considerable discussion the resolu-
ton was referred to the committee on
contingent expenses.
Senator Hepburn raised the question
regarding forest reserves. He sharply
critized the methods of the forestry bu-
reau and charged il with maintaining
a press bureau for the purpose of at
lacking him. He declined. however,
to hold the president responsible for
this course. He asid that the course
avs calculated to retard the develop
ment of the west.
Senator Dubois took a contrary view,
defending the policy pursued and con-
tending that ii was in the interest of
the arid regions.
Senator Heyburn addressed the senate
in support of his bill to compensate
states for school lands taken possession
of by the government for forest reserve
purposes. He said congress had sur
rendered its constitutional right to con-
troll the public lands embraced within
the public lands embraced within
the forest reserves and that the admin
stration of the reservations is of such
a character as to force the conviction
that the time has arrived for congress
to resume its guardianship.
Senator Hepburn said the forest re-
serves in Idaho cover more than 23, 0C0
square miles. He protested against
such an extensive withdrawal as I'M
