In the death Of John Lawrence Toole a man Of
NOBLE and gentle nature and actor of rare and

Toole. like the late Joseph Jefferson, was more a

meant that he looked upon human life with SYM

BIG ELECTRIC STORM
INJURIES WHATCOM GRAIN

The electric storm which spread
over Whatcom county July q is
charged with playing more pranks than
striking trees, barns, ETC., and the most
peculiar is that related by William
Manning, a well-known. farmer, of
Ferndale. In the city today he stated
that his oat field was materially in
fiuenced by the electrical storm, as
when he harvested his grain he noticed
that the tops of the oat heads were
blighted and he lays the blame to the
electric storm. He says the fact that
the grain was injured before maturity
reduced the yield per acre from an
average of 12O bushels to about eighty.
The stalks, he says were large and
firm and to all intents the heads were
we'll formed, but Immediately after the
storm he noticed a general dropping
of the oat tops, as if the frost or hot
wave had swept over the field.

PLAN NEW WATER SYSTEM
FOR NORTH YAKIMA

1t is understood that Jesse H. Rose
and associates will at an early day
make application to the North Yakima
city council for a franchise for a new
water system for this city, siws the
Yakima Democrat.
The Rose proposition to furnish the
city with a water supply is rather a
novel one. Instead of taking the
water from the Naches river or any
other nearby stream, Mr.. Rose propos-
es, it is said, to sink a number of ar
tesian wells to be located on Mob Hill
for the purpose of securing a water
supply. Mr.. Rose is sanguine that ar
tesian water can be had under the
city or nearby and is willing to take
chance on it provided he can Sc
cure a franchise from the city on the
right conditions.

FAST PROGRESS ON
SPOKANE G. INLAND LINE

The grading work on the Spokane &
Inland railway is now 96 per cent COM
pleted on the contracts of Eslick, Hart
nett & Clark, from Garfield to Pa
louise. The only heavy work now left
is on the big cut entering the city,
says the Palouse Republic. The work
through the country is practically all
done, and the four per cent yet left
includes the cut work
It has not yet been given out from
the men who furnished the money
whether or not track laying will be
done from this end The contractors
themselves do not know. 1t is suppOs-
ed, however that rails will be laid
from this end, because it would facili-
tate the work.
On the other end tracklaying is be-
ing pushed as far as Spring valley
junction, where the lines branch to
Palouse and Colfax.

UMAT|LLA's WOOL CROP
|F|ve Millions Pounds ba|ed al
Pend|eton This Year
MAKES A TOTAL OF 1873 CARLOADS
JUDD G. ROOT COMPANY scoUR
100000 POUNDS IN
MILLS,
MAKES A TOTAL OF 1888 CARLOADS

PENDLETON, Sept. 3.-Of the 1906
crop of wool there have been already
baied in Pendleton 100000 pounds, or
1873 carloads, estimating IS bales of an
average weight of 500 pounds, to the
average car.
Of the above amount, the Judd &
Foot company has baled 100000
pounds and has at this time not less
than $4,000 pounds on hand INHALED
The Furnish company has also bal
ed 100000 popnds, but has none,
or at least very little, on hand un
baled.
The aggregate for both establish
ments of 100000 pounds, has been
shipped almost to the last baie and
practically all went to Boston, Mass,
and to Hartford, Conn.
The Judd & Root company handled
from 100000 to 100000 pounds from
Wallowa county, the balance coming
from Umatilla, Morrow and Gillian
counties, for the most part. OF course
the larger part of the balance of about
100000 paunds was raised in UNA
tilla county.
One million pounds of the wool put
through the Furnish baler was raised
in Umatilla county, the balance in
Baker and WallOwa counties, and con-
siderable from Asotin and adjacent
counties in Washington. The latter is
generally called 'LewistOn' WOOL
In addition to the above as the rec
ord for this uncompleted season, the
Judd & Root company has secured
100000 pounds.
The season lacks approximately
month of being at an end, but none of
the managers would venture an esti
mate of the amount of wool that will
yet be brought in.

MAYNARD BOYS ARE
NOW TO BE CARED FOR

A society has just been organized
at Caldwell, Idaho, which is planned
to care for bad and neglected boys
throughout the nation who have start

is to be known as the Lads Training
association, and it is said it's organic

boy in the United States, whose train
ing is being neglected or who has al
ready fallen by the wayside.
Men fitted to do this sort Of work
among boys are to become active
agents of the association in every
town and rural district from Maine
to Manila. These men are to volun-
teer to do this work and absolute Sc
crecy is to be the keyword of the So
ciety, which hopes through it's efforts
to do away to large extent with not
only jails, but insane asylums as well.

franklin COUNTY
ADVANCES A NOTCH

The board Of county commissioners
at their last meeting held last week,
raised Franklin county from the twen-
ty-fifth to the twenty-first class, and
segregated the offices of auditor and
clerk, says the Franklin County Regis
ter. This action is based on the sta
tutes which provide that when the pop
ulation of a county shall have reached
5000 it shall be raised to the 21st
class. This law also fixes the salaries
of the several county officers, which
in this instance is: County auditor,
$1,000; county clerk, s1,10O; county
treasurer, $3.50; county sheriff $1,000;
county attorney, 5000; county school
superintendent, $500; county commits
sioners, 81 per day; county assessor,
81 per day; county surveyor, IS per
day; county coroner, such fees as are
allowed by law.

FRED GARDEN OF ATHENA
HAS THRILLING EXPERIENCE

While coming to town with a load
of wheat Fred Garden encountered a
thrilling experience in descending a
steep hill at the Pamburn place south
of the city, says the Athena Press.
The brake block slipped out of place
and the two heavily loaded wagons
crowded forward on the four horse
team. At express speed the outfit flew
down the hill. Carder was utterly
helpless and when near the bottom OF
the steep incline one of the wheel hors-
es fell and was rolled and dragged for
a considerable distance. The horse at
tempted to get up. Every rib on one
side was found to be broken and the
animal was killed by it's owner.
That bad luck follows a fellow in
spots, Garden without doubt believes.

it said to his credit, seemed ashamed
of the company he was in, stood in the

talking about Ireland, and he said
many hard things about the country
and the people. A great big man stood
near by listening to the little fellows

the little fellow said in very loud

that you said?"

For every dollar subscribed you will
get one share of stock in the Natural
Oil & Development company.
The money so invested will not only
set to rest the contention that oil ex-
lists in the Walla Walla Valley, but it
will give you your proportion of any
profits that accrue from the discov-
cry of oil in The Two Medicine( un-
Organized) mining district of Teton
county, Montana, where the company
are now sinking a well.
We are down now to a depth of 1000
feet. The last report under date of
August 22nd, says: 1--WE are passing
through Oil shale and still have
heavy carburated gas Indications"
If we get we'll in Montana the
money invested here will bring you
back large returns.
If we get we'll at Walla Walla,
you will not only realize large
profit on the money so invested, but
you will have contributed toward an
enterprise that means the doubling
of the population of Walla Walla
within a short time and the conse-
quent enhancement of property
values.
You say, it seems too good to be
true Oil has been discovered and pro-
ducing wells brought out in Montana,
Wyoming, California, Colorado, Brit
ish Columbia and other places west
of the Rocky Mountains, why should
it not be here?
WE HAVE THE SURFACE INDI-
CATIONS-Prof. Samuel Aughey, Phi.
D.LL.D.E.M. who has visited this
district on two different occasions,
says, THAT surface indications are
not absolutely essential, since pro-
ductive wells have been obtained in
oil territory where no indication of
its presence existed, save the favor
able geological conditions. But sur
