WILL PRACTICALLY LEAVE THE
MINISTRY Is ANNOUNCEMENT,
TO Be SupERNuMERARY
FOR the LOCAL CHURCH
North Yakima Will Have q New Pas
tor Next Year-Conference Con.
tinued Tuesday Evening.

Rev. Alfred H. Henry, pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church, will
become a snpernumerary minister of
the denomination when he finishes
his present year of work with the To-
cal congregation, and while not &C.
tually leaving the ministry, will prac
tically retire. Such was the an
nouncement made last evening after
the adjourned meeting of the fourth
quarterly conference of the church.
The financial condition of the
church was referred by the officials,
the committee reports taken up ami
all details looked after that are
necessary before the pastor places
the matters before the annual con-
ference.
North Yakima will have a new
pastor next year to replace DR..
Henry, the appointment being made
by the bishop at the conference. It
is possible that several ministers
who like the North Yakima field will
come here before the conference and
will meet some North Yakima Meth
odists, but the general feeling is
that the place should be filled by the
bishop without any hearing OF SER
mons by men who might desire the
place.
Dr.. Henry will deliver the sermons
both mornings and evening on the
two remaining Sundays before the
conference.

Mailing List IL Large One,

Inquiries from every state in the
United States, excepting three. have
been receivd during the past seven
weeks by the publicity committee OF
the Yakima commercial club, a fact
that was disclosed yesterday when
Secretary Zuppann mailed to hund-
reds of persons the new apple-shaped
booklet that has just been issued.
The inquiries were the result OF the

nyside Intake Tuesday.

Fearing that in short time crops
might be injured and that the power
company and the mill Of Prosser
would be tied up, Mayor Taylor, E.
F. Benson and Albert Lynn of Pros.
ser appeared before Engineer Jacobs
Tuesday and asked that more water
low in the Yakima river.
Engineer Jacobs informed the del
egation that already two inches OF
water from Lake Kaches and two
inches from Lake Kachelos had been
turned into the Yakima and that the
first effect of this was felt at the
Sunnyside intake Tuesday, when a
rise Of about three-quarters OF an
inch was noted.
The water was allowed to escape
from the reservoirs last Friday and
still flows. At the rate of two inches
a day from each lake Engineer JAG
obs informed the delegation the first
mentioned reservoir will last about
Is days and the latter about 40 days.
Engineer Jacobs sent word last
night to Lake Kaches that another
inch should be turned into the river,
making a total lowering of its sur
face to three inches a day. This will
doubtless give all the users in the
lower valley more than a full sup
ply and will be gratefully received
by the power company and the mill
company, as well as the farmers and
citizens OF Prosser in general. All
the people below Prosser will be
more than cared for by the increased
water.

terest in the Run to the
Middle Western States,

Assurances OF splendid support
for the Yakima valley publicity ex-
cursion, with is being arranged to
go through the central and western
states in October under the auspices
of the North Yakima publicity COM
mittee we're given W. F. Safer, trav-
cling passenger agent of the North
ern Pacific, and Secretary Zuppann
of the publicity committee in pre-
liminary canvass made yesterday.
When seen at the Yakima hotel last
evening Mr.. Safer said that he con-
sidered the outlook bright, that he
believed North Yakima would con-
tribute fifty persons for the excur.
sion list, that fifty more could be se-
cured from the valley and that By
September Is every berth would be
taken
In order that the publicity COM
mittee may have assistance in work
ing up interest in the excursion I,
appointed consisting OF the first ten
North Yakima men to promise to
make the trip, and representatives
of six other cities that will make the
tour. This committee is composed
of Dan Lesh, Phil Otter, A. B. Cline,
Lee Title, ]. B. Maher, O. A. Clark,
W. c. Schroeder, NJ. B. Miles, c. o.
Bradshaw and C.. H. Human OF
North Yakima: E. F. Benson of Pros
ser. Alex McCredy Of Wapato, Geo.
P. Eaton of Granger and representa-
tives OF the Sunnyside, Toppenish
and Ellensburg commercial clubs.
While assurances were received
yesterday that over twenty men
would be in the party from North
Yakima, and that many more could
be secured in the valley. the work
has only been started. Every effort
will be made to reach those intW-
ested and any inquirer will be given
information regarding the trip by
the publicity committee.
Business men and ranchers ex-
press themselves as believing that
the special excursion train idea is
the best advertising scheme eyer
projected and that as combination
of business and pleasure il can not
be equalled by any other plan. That
il will secure general and cordial
support seems certain. Within the
past couple of days there has been
more talk than ever before, anu
more men have been declaring them
selves as planning to make the trip.
ITO me the outlook is excellent.
It would seem that there is nothing
TO hinder the trips success Every
one i. getting interested in it and
believe il will be a real GO said Mr..
Safer in talking about the trip.
The very fact that the Northern
Pacific and the Pullman company
| are to furnish the valley with their
best equipment shows how the rail-
road people feel about it. We think
the tour will be of vast benefit to
the country. and want to back 1t in
every way possible"

CANVAS FOR FRUIT
FOR FAIR IN EAST
COMMITTEE OF PROMINENT
GROWERS WILL WORK.
CARLOAD TO so TO FAIR
TO Be HELD IN MINNESOTA
Relieved Display win Mean More to
Yakima Valley Than In Any
Other Fair OF Country.

One OF the finest exhibits ever as
sembled in North Yakima will be
shipped to the Minnesota state fair
early next week, when the exhibit
planned by the publicity committee
and a number Of ranchers Of North
Yakima and vicinity will go out over
the Northern Pacific railroad. The
final decision to reserve space on the
state fair grounds and to send back
the fruit was made by the publicity
committee yesterday.
A canvass OF the fruit growers will
be made tomorrow and the next day
to secure the requisite amount of
fruit to make up car load lot, and
in the the publicity committee will
be assisted by w. n. Irish, E. ].
Haasze. H. NJ. Gilbert, w. P. Saw
yer, w. I. Harmon, w. L. Wright,
w. NJ. Nelson and a number Of other
fruit growers. Already number of
these ranchers have put away guam
titles of fruit that will be placed in
the shipment.
1t is the plan of the promoters to
sell the fruit on the grounds, as well
as to distribute literature, and 1t is
believed in this way all of the ex-
penses can be paid and a good price
Melted from the fruit besides.
As the Minnesota state fair is the
largest agricultural fair in the coun-
try and many persons are coming to
the valley from that section, the dis
play is likely to prove very bene-
fetal and as a publicity move is a
good one.

Only Delaware, Nevada and Utah

being in even greater demand than
anticipated by the committee, and
there has been a constant inquiry
at the commercial club rooms for
them since the announcement in the
morning Herald yesterday.
Secretary Zuppann Of the publicity
committee, and Secretary James Of
the commercial club were busy dur.
ing the greater part OF the da yhand
ing out copies to those who promised
to sc that they we're mailed to the
eastern states or to inquiries in re-
gard to North Yakima. Several out
of-town persons who are visiting in
North Yakima were among the call
ers at the club and promised to dis
tribute them on their tours. Several
travelling men who were in the city
during the day also sought the book
lets and spoke of the unique design.
Persons contributing to the pub
licity fund and interested in the pub
lRation of the literature say that the
apple booklet is one OF the most nov
ell pieces of advertising ever original
ed and that it will have good effect
as publicity step is the belief gen.
orally expressed.

Will Everett, North Yakima's real
estate man, mining broker, orator
and prohibitionist, spoke to a Sunny
side audience on Friday evening
Mr.. Everett is a prohibitionist from
the shoulder and gave the people
talk on the temperance question
purely along prohibition lines. The
Federated church was well filled and
the splendid audience evidently was
in perfect accord with the speaker
and his sentiments, judged from the
frequent and hearty applause. Mr.
Everett is an orator as we'll as a
practical thinker and used some
pointed and appropos stories to illus
trate his points The gist of Mr..
Everett's talk is as follows:
The disappearance of Mr.. Nicolai
is but an incident in the ruthless
course of the liquor traffic, despoil-
ing and destroying our citizens.
1t it has taken his life. it is onlv
startling in that it is out of the usual
order.
We look with complacency on the
appalling fatalities through accident,
drunken brawls, to which drink is i
cause. What then shall we do with
the cause?
Drunkenness is produced by the
drink and the drinker coming to-
gether.
To keep them apart will solve the
problem.
Good people have devoted vast en-
ergy through many means to keep
the drinker away from the drink.
These efforts are the work of the
temperance advocate.
] advocate the more practical work
Of removing the drink beyond the
reach Of the drinker.
This is prohibition Of the liquor
business.
