The Leavenworth Land Co, has COM
pleted its survey of the Kincherf tract
and made plats of the same which can
be seen at the Offices Of the local real
estate agents. The land is now on the
market and several tracts have already
been sold. The location of this land
makes it the most desirable buy for
those wanting homes near town and
yet want enought good productive land
to have some fruit trees and a garden
1t is equally desirable as an investment.
1t is sure to enhance in value. 1t i:
claimed that more than two million
dollars has been made in Wenatchee in
the last three years in the increase in
land values. No investment has a:
little OF the element OF chance in it al
land.

Mr.. Editor:-The amateurs certainly
done themselves proud Wednesday
night. AS the play progressed l could
not but exclaim ''tO the manor born. p"
The presentation Of "The Country
Clergyman" was faultless.
The two leading characters rendered
their parts as tho to walk the boards
was their especial element. To say
their several acts were well rendered
were not fully to express the sentiments
of the audience.
1t would appear nothing was lacking
in presentation of the leading parts
The support was exceptionally fine. 1t
could have been no more complete had
the play been put on under an eXper-
fenced coach. Each player found his
or her Q at the right place and time.
There certainly is in the leading lady
an histrionic star in sight.
The audience was at times uproar-
iously appreciative. a compliment OF
the highest character as they could
sympathize with the actors, as IN act
ing before their friends and playmates
las it were) was a severe test for I'M
consciousness. All praise is due the
troupe" Each part was well and
pleasingly rendered The actors may
feel proud and can congratulate them
selves on having given very pleasant
and enjoyable evening to their many
| friends. ,12;02 A. M.

"Iihe Country CIererman,,

An emotional drama with the above
title was presented by an amateur com
pany, consisting entirely OF young La
dies and gentlemen of the town, at the
opera house Wensday evening to a
large and appreciative audience.
If they fell a little short Of profes-
SIGNALS it was no more than was expect
ed
OF Miss Edna Campbell's work We
can honestly speak in the highest
praise. She has the right conception
of dramatic art and enunciates dis
tinctly.
In the title character Of the Country
Clergyman, Mr. Edwards appeared to
very good advantage and drew forth
rounds of applause Miss Bessie LeRue
was most charming little Puritan,
and in the character Of the Clergyman
sister, won the heart of the audience.
Mrs. Mills, as New England spin-ter,
a bit snappy, was very good. as wa
Mrs Marlin in. the character, Mrs.
wilkins, who favored ''rummage Sd. es.
Miss Gertle Hapsen and Mrs Haeg r,
also took heir parts well.
Butler Sampson, the comedian in
the character of Reuben, The New Eng
land yokeI, was the whole thing oul
always sleepy. AS rising young vii
age lawyer Ed Mills did we'll Harry
Hoxsey is all right, but he would shine
brighter in other than a class leader al
a religious revival.
On the whole everybody did well. The
presentation may be called a success.
Much credit is due Mr.. r. g. Edwards
who spent considerable time in coach
ing the company.
Below we add the impressions Of one
who attended the performance and was
highly pleased.

APPLES WERE SPILLED.
Wagon Load of Fruit Dumped Out in
Runaway.

Runaway.
A young farmer by the name of
Vro1A, living near Leighton, had quite
mishap in town today. He drove
over with big wagon load of apples
and was engaged in selling them from
house to house. His team took fright
at the street cars on oNrth B street
and ran up B avenue TO Market street.
In making the turn they struck the
curbing in front of the VIM. Teas
home and dumped the entire wagon
load of apples on the lawn. The
horses ran to High avenue where they,
were stopped, without serious damage
to animals or property. High school
had just closed for the noon hour and
the pupils helped the driver pick up
the spilled fruit. 1t is suspected that
not every apple found its way back
into the wagon. A peculiar coinci-
dence in the accident was the fact
that while the north car started lac
team, the east car was the means of
stopping it.

COLMAN.-The funeral of the late
George S. Colman, who died Sunday
afternoon at the residence of Post
master Chas. v. Hoffman,, occurred
from the Hoffman, home Tuesday af-
ternoon at two-thirty o'clock, and in
te,ment was made in Forest Gene
terry.
The service at the house was can
Quoted by the Rev. ]. w. Jones of The
St. James Episcopal church and the
song service was by members Of the
choir. The funeral was quite largely
attended The grave service was con
Quoted by the order Of Elks, of which
the deceased was member. The To-
cal lodge attended in body. The
Iowa Brigade band, of which organiza-
ton the deceased had been mem
Der and worker for years, and the
postoflice employees also attended as
organizations and marched to the Gem
etery. The pail bearers were from
the co-workers of the deceased, the
carrier force in its entirety acting in
this capacity and as escort of honor.
They were Harry Anderson, Dan Cor
coran, Newt Snyder, Warren Laffol-
lett, Jerome Woods, Jesse Clough and
John SHELTON The band attended as
an organization, but their instruments
were silent by request. Numerous
floral tributes to the memory of the
Rnnnncnd tn m a nm
place and many messages and express
sins ct sympathy were extended the
members of the sorrow-stricken fam
lily. A strange coincidence occurred
at the Hoffman, residence during the
funeral service that caused comment
among the members of the band. The
deceased was at the head of the "alto
section" of the old band and he was
always in his place and ready for any
work. The others of the section were
Howard Hopes, Ed Bowen and Will
McDonough, seated in the order
named, at practice, while playing or
in march. These old players were
again together at the funeral of their
former companion for the first time
in several years, some having dropped
from the band. AS they were seated
for the service some one remarked
that they were in the self-same order
in which they had played while
George was with them in the band.
And how strange,-there is Georges
seat unoccupied." remarked one of
the boys, pointing to a vacant chair
by their side. The chair remained
without an occupant during the entire
service. The incident was really pa.
thetic and touching.
