If you should happen to take walk
of few miles up into the Tumwater
canyon you will find camps for the en-
ployees and men strung out for dis
tance of over two miles from a point a
little more than two miles from town.
Messrs. Caughren & Woldsen, who
have the contract to do the grading
and excavating for the 8-foot, 6-inch
pipe line which is to convey the water
nearly two and half miles to the
power house, have their camp located
at the east end of the work. Both
gentlemen were absent, but we found
the office in charge of Mr.. Foster, a
most pleasant and agreeable gentle
man, who cheerfully gave out such in
formation about the work as he was
familiar with. Under a misapprehen-
sion it was heretofore stated that the
plant was to be completed by January
1st. This relates only to the pipe line.
The power house and dam will proba-
bly, not be completed under eighteen
months.
Messrs. Caughren & Woldsen have
sublet the work on the pipe line to
Heine & Carlson, who have the west
half, and Jackson & Caughren, who
have the east half. The clearing of
the right of way is almost completed,
and already considerable work has been
done on the grade. There will be
very little filling, the work consisting
mostly of cuts and these in solid rock
for the larger part Of the distance.
Messrs. Caughren & Jackson have a
50O-foot tunnel through granite point.
The bed for the pipe line will be in
every respect similar to grade for a
railroad. Indeed, when it is complet-
ed a spur track from the main line will
be laid, beginning at the foot of Big
lake lust above where the dam is to be
construed, and where temporary
bridge is under construction, and con-
tinued to the point where the pipe
line crosses the river on steel bridge.
There the material for the pipe line
will be delivered from the cars and as
fast as the pipe is put together the
track will be taken up. The entire
length of the pipe line is something
over II, 900 feet. The slaves are to be
of wood AKA inches with iron bands
every three inches. The dam will be
built of concrete and will be 400 feet
long and between twenty and thirty

Want Information About Potatoes

In the belief that promoters of de-
natured alcohol distilleries and starch
manufactures can be induced to estab-
lish their industries in the Northwest,
using the starch contents of potatoes
for manufacturing purposes, the Pull
man agricultural college experiment
station is gathering statistics on potato
crops in the Northwest. This data,
complete, will be submitted to firms
who have already expressed willingness
to come to this territory, if the posi-
bilities of potato-g growing can be shown
to be sufficiently attractive. Such in
dustries will place immense quantities
of denatured alcohol on the market,
which will compete with kerosene and
gasoline and other petroleum COM
pounds for heating, cooking, illumin-
ating, and many other purposes for
which petroleum compounds are at
present being used. Tne alcohol in
dustry may invade the field now occu-
pied by petroleum compounds, and it
will make growing one of the
most profitable OF the farm industries.

A SENSATIONAL SUIT FILED
Ten Thousand Dollars Asked for Alleged
Alienation of Wenatohee Wife's
Affections.

A highly sensational case was filed
in the Superior court yesterday where
in Dee Fisher brings suit against V. 7.
Eighme for $4,000 for the alleged
alienation OF his wife's affections, says
the World.
The plaintiff, in his complaint, al
leges that between March 10, 1907,
and June IS, 1907, the defendant rep
resented to the wife of the defendant
that her lot was hard one and that it
would be advisable for her to secure a
divorce, and that he offered her money
for the securing of a divorce with the
understanding that when that was Sc
cured that said defendant would marry
her. 1t is further alleged that defend
ant furnished money to the wife OF the
plaintiff to the amount of 500 and
that the said wife of the plaintiff de-
parted for Seattle where she is now
living.

feet in height The height not being
determined, as the depth of the foun-
dation is not fully known. The dam
will be built on an angle with the apex
up stream. The foundation of the
power house will be built of concrete
and the walls up to a certain height
will be Of the same material with
supersructure of brick. We did not
learn the dimensions of the power
house, but it will necessarily be quite
large building.
On Wednesday last IS men were
employed on the work by the two con-
tractors. Fifty more were expected
the following day, and by the middle
of the month more than two hundred
men will be employed. Scarcity of
labor is one OF the difficulties the con-
tractors have to contend with.
AS stated heretofore the plant is eX-
pected to develop from eight to ten
thousand horsepower. If the results
obtained are satisfactory the Great
Northern railway will build at least two
more similar plants, one Of which is
already located. The power house for
this plant will be within quarter Of
mile of town, or two miles farther down
the canyon than the one now under
construction.

WIN. D. HAYWOOD ACQUITTED
The Jury Found the Secretary of the West
ern federation of Miners Not Guilty
of the Steunenberg Murder.

At last the Haywood trial has termi'
mated and the secretary-ueasurer of the
Western Federation Of Miners was
vindicated and given his liberty.
The jury was out twenty-four hours
and this gave ground for the belief that
no verdict would be reached.
The first formal ballot was as follows:
Not guilty 8; guilty, 2; blank, Q.
The second ballot added one name
to the not guilty column.
The result Of the next vote swelled
the number of the mot guilty. adher-
ents to ten, and for twelve long hours
the ratio of 10 to Q was maintained.
Thos. Powell and Samuel D. Gil
man, both ranchers by occupation,
were the men who held out so long for
conviction in some degree.
While much surprise was expressed
by good many men, notably Governor
Gooding, at the verdict, in the light of
the evidence offered by the prosecu-
ton to connect Haywood with the assas-
ination of Governor Stuenenberg, no
other verdict would have been possible.
A touching incident in the last act
of this notable trial was revealed in
Haywood tender solicitation for his
invalid mother. The worry Of the long
trial and the elements Of doubt that
arose in the mothers mind as to the
final outcome, was too much Of strain
upon the enfeebled woman's nerves
and at the last moment, when the fate
OF her son was given into the hands Of
the jury, she broke down and was
taken to a hospital. AS soon as the
verdict had been announced and the
Judge had gone through the formality
Of discharging Haywood from the Gus
tody of the law, the duitful son fastened
to his mothers bedside to apprise her
of the verdict which had left no stain
of blood upon his hands. Press reports
state that the presence of the son,
together with the cheering message he
had brought her, provedi wonderful
tonic to the mother, her condition un-
dergoing a change for the better at
once.
1t was generally thought that, in case
the prosecution failed to convict Hay
wood, Meyer and Pettibone would not
be tried. The following statement
from Governor Gooding, who was in
the court room when the verdict was
read, gives no warrant to the former
theory:
The verdict is a great surprise to
me, and I believe to all citizens OF
Idaho who have heard or read the
evidence in the case. The state will
continue a vigorous prosecution Of
Meyer and Pettibone and Adams, and
of Simpkins, when apprehended. I
have done my duty. I have no regret
as to any action I have taken. My
conscience is clear. There will be
neither hesitation nor retreat"

Methodist Episcopal Church Notes.

Sunday school continues to increase
in interest and attendance. Every
Sunday marks an increase over the pre-
ceding Sunday and we are looking for
ward with confidence to the attendance
in the near future reaching 100. Send
along your children to the Sunday
school.
Four have been received into the
church during the last two weeks, with
more to follow.
The church has become incorporated
with the following trustees: E. B.
Norell, F. L. Brender, James Edwards,
H. K. Featherstone and w. w. Nc
Givern.
The official board, at its regular
monthly business meeting last Wednes-
day night, decided to purchase for a
church and parsonage site, lots and
Q of block 8, Ralstons addition. These
lots make one of the most desirable
sites for a church in the city.
They are located on the north side,
just south of the new school building.
The board decided to erect, if possible,
a parsonage this fall. Another action
taken by the board at this meeting,
which we feel will meet with the ap-
proval of every good resident of Leav-
worth, was to establish a reading and
recreation room in the business part Of
the town for the general public. The
idea is to have it open day and night,
where the young men can go and feel
at home, to read, write, lounge, etc.,
at their pleasure. The only place Of
such a nature now open to the young
men is the saloon. We will try to
make the reading room as attractive as
possible without the attendant evils
surrounding the saloon. All persons
interested in establishing such place
are requested to meet at Library hall
Wednesday night, August 7, at 8
o'clock, at which time plans will be
made to consummate the scheme.
Sunday services are held in Library
hall as follows: Sunday school, 10 a.
M; morning worship, II a. M; even
ing service, 8 p. m.

At this time New York boosted of

than Philadelphia and Boston, but it
had roseate prospects, and it was Sc
