That in the wreck which occurred
in Tumwater canyon last Saturday
afternoon no one was killed was
most fortunate, and we rejoice
thereat.
On information furnished by en-
ployes of the railroad company we
make the statement that the wreck
was caused by the very bad condi-
ton of the track. Many of the ties
where the wreck occurred are so old
and rotten that they will not hold
spike. Under side pressure on the
rails they simply spread apart and
let the wheels down on the ties.
If the travelling public knew the
condition of the Great Northern
track it would avolu riding on it
whenever it was possible. Who
rides on it is in danger of losing his
life. The only regret we have is
that we cannot shout the fact in the
ears of every traveller going either
east or west.-Leavenworth Echo.

The first serious accident endan-
gering human life to occur upon the
new bridge building across the Co
lumbia occurred at eight o'clock this
morning when W. r. Paris, foreman
for Gerrick & Gerrick, was struck by
swinging cable and knocked from
the new structure to the ground, %
feet below, and is believed fatally
injured.
Paris was standing on the newly
built frame approach to the bridge,
and apparently failed to see the guy
rope which knocked him to possible
death on the rocky ground far be-
low; in falling he narrowly missed
striking his head upon the railway
tracks and being instantly killed.
Five workmen who were busy
near by, and Inspector Preston, who
was but a short distance away, i'm

MOTHS BUSY
SAYS PHILIPS
Ex-Fruit Inspector Advises Local
Growers to Wage War at the
Proper Time.

The Goblin moths are running
amuck again.
S. w. Phillips, ex-county fruit in
spector, when seen by a World rep
resentative this morning, said that
the moths are coming out, and have
been since the 22nd of June.
Down the river" said Mr.. Phil
lips, they are finding all the way
from 1 to so worms under :. band"
Then it'll soon be time to spray
again, will it not?" asked the re-
porter
"Yes," said the ex-inspector.
Spraying along the river should be-
gin about July 5th. Of course on
the flat the spraying should be done
a few days later, or about July 9th.
Then up in the Squillchuck, where
the worms appear little later still,
spraying should be done about ten
days after it is down in the orchards
near the river.
THE second spraying should be
made about a week later, in all these
different localities. This will effect
lively kill off the pest and save lot
of fruit clean and marketable.
Mr. Phillips is one of the most ex-
perienced fruit men in the valley and
knows what he is talking about
when moths and spray are the sub
ject He grew fruit in Oregon years
ago before coming to the Wenatchee
valley, and has been one of the most
successful ranchers in producing the
! Big Red Ones that have made We
natchee famous.
His advice to fruit growers is
worth money.
Mr.. Phillips will leave next week
for visit to old friends in the Will
| lamette and Hood River, OrdgOn,
countries.

What is Wenatcnee going to do

What is Wenatcnee going to dc
for public park?
The time has come when she must
purchase land for this purpose or 1t
will be only question of very few
years till it will be so high that
she will pay an enormously big price
for a place of the kind
Everyone acquainted with condi-
tions knows that the city made a
big mistake by not purchasing the
old fair ground when it could have
been bought for what is now practi-
caliy nothing. But it is too late TO
waste energy crying over what can
not now be helped.
Within the past few days another
proposition has been presented.
This proposition is for the city TO
buy the land lying between the
Great Northern track on the west
and the Wenatchee and Columbia
rivers where they unite on the east
-.na to utilize the same for public
playground.
II lies south of the Wenatchee
river bridge on the flat below.
The tract contains fifty acres OF
land and at the present time can be
purchased for $4,000 which is only
$500 per acre.
The need of a public playground
has been felt in Wenatchee ever
since the fair grounds were sold.
Tho nroposed location it is said, Will
rot only take the place of the fair
Grounds but can also be made, with
little expense, into a most beautiful

New Law.

making it possible for the city to Is

It isdnnder this law that the pro-

developed at the lake or the river.
Animals Too.
A few deer, elk and bears on the
bank of the river might be cared for
at little cost. While this would
probably be a subsequent addition,
it is a matter well worth the con-
sideration
Side Track Already Laid.
To add to the natural location of
the proposed new PARK side track
has already been laid at this place
by the Lamb-Davis Lumber COM
pany and which would be handy at
the future fairs to be held.
Located as it is on the banks of
the Columbia and the Wenatchee
rivers transportation can be had on
the river. The water is deep at this
place and no difficulty would be had
in effecting landing. In times of
large gathering river boat could
handle hundreds of people in COM
paratively short time between We
natchee and the park. 1t would not
be long before launch would be
running regularly during the sum-
mer.
The first cost to the city would be
$4,000. 1t is believed that $4,000
more would go long way toward
getting the grounds in shape. Ow-
ing to the fact that the tract is SUBJ
irrigated NO IRRIGATION is NEG
ESSARY, Water for drinking pur-
poses is easily obainable either by
wells or from the river.
ED. Note: The above in brief con-
tains the advantages of this tract
of ground as location for a park
for Wenatchee. Perhaps there may
be other things about the place that
the World has not mentioned. At
any rate the matter is worthy of con-
sideration and before going further
the location ought to be looked in
TO thoroughly The municipal COM
mittee of the Commercial club COM
posed of w. NJ. Olive, ]. A. Gellat-
ly, D. A. Beal, Will Little and A. F.
Anderson will go over the ground
within the next few days and report
to the organization the result of
their Investigation.
