TACOMA MAYOR TO
ENFORCE THE LAW
WILL MAKE SUNDAY CLOSING
UNIVERSAI-MAY DECIDE
TO HAVE PREACHER
ARRESTED

TACOMA, Feb. 24.-The an
nouncement of drastic Sunday clos
ing was made tonight by Mayor
Wright, and also by Chief Maloney,
to all newspapermen and to many
callers. In answer to an inquiry May
ro Wright said:
Il am not certain that we could
arrest ministers of the gospel, but it
is centain that paid musicians and
singers employed in churches come
under the law and should be prose-
cuted. We may not get to that to-
morrow, but We will get to it in
time"
The mayors program includes the
closing of street cars, daily newspa-
pers, theaters, skating rinks, tele-
phones and everything and every
business not absolutely excepted by
the state law.
That Mayor Wright is playing a
political game in his puritaaieal
movements was we'll demonstrated
by his address last evening at the
Elks' banquet. He said there that
he was strongly opposed to the en-
forcement of the Sunday laws, but
that he proposed to obey the wishes
of the majority.
IF the people want to have laws
enforced, they shall have their fill
of it," he declared.
All newspapers will be closed and
no foreign papers permitted to be

Detectives i'm WOmen's Clothes

CLEVELAND, Feb. 24.-Several
Cleveland patrolmen have been as
signed to a squad with instructions
to don women's clothes for special
service. Great secrecy has been re-
sorted to in teh preparation of this
feminine adjunct to the detective de-
partment.
Chief Kohler saw the necessity of
women detectives. They were need
ed in ferreting out the hiding places
of stolen goods, for their are few
crooks without their feminine con-
fidants and associates. They would
be useful in gaining information for
use against women offenders of all
kinds. Then there are the mash
ers" and others who delight in an
nOying women.

HELPED JOHNSON OUT
Kind Man Relieves Him of 5000 and
Now Mr.. johnson is Looking for
the Man-OfYers Reward.

Alfred Johnson, a prosperous farm
er and contractor of Cashmere, is
vainly looking for 5000 which he left
in the hands of some Good Samaritan
of Wenatchee one day last week while
on a brief stay in this city
Mr.. johnson came to Wenatchee
from Cashmere the first. of last week
with $3.50 in coin of the realm, an
intention to remain several days, and
a desire to purchase a good horse.
Instead of Immediately purchasing
the needed equine and taking his
horse and his departure Mr.. John
son hunted up some good friends and
proceeded to divorce himself from
that portion of his finances over and
above the amount set aside for the
purchase of horse flesh.
By the second day of his visit to
Wenatchee Mr.. Jonson had so fire.
quently had recourse to the flowing
bowl as to reach the stage when a
mans knees become weak and the
eyes see plural objects where normal
visions see but one. 1t was then he
confided to friend that he had 5000
for which he feared he might be
touched and requested that the
friend assist him by temporarily TAX
ing custody of the money. This the
friend agreed to do and with such
success has he taken care of Mr.
Johnson's roll that the latter is now
diligently seeking to recover it. Mr..
Johnson's difficulty lies in the fact
that the day of the occurrence is now
a total blank and he is unable to re-
call the identy of the party who so
generously assisted him.
Mr. Johnson at length returned to
his home at Cashmere, but without
either the horse which was the object
of his visit or the roll of banknotes
which he was so greatly in fear of
losing.
Letters from Mr.. Johnson have
since been received by number of
saloon men in this city asking if by
chance he had placed the money in
their care, or if they knew anything
about his money. Some Of them re-
call Mr.. Johnson's visit and remem-
Der that he was burdened with . wad

TO ELECT TWO new
SCHOOL DIRECTORS
ELECTION WILL BE HELD In
THIS CITY NEXT SATURDAY
-GLCHRIST AND DAVIES
WILL RETIRE

School district, No. 4. embracing
the territory between the Wenatchee
river and the H. S. Simmons ranch
south of town, will hold an election
Saturday in this city for the purpose
of electing two school directors, one
for a two years and the other for a
three years term. The election will
be held at the old city hall on Mission
street and the polls will be open be-
tween the hours OF one and eight p.
IN.
The directors elected will fill the
places on the board of I. A. Davies.
resigned, and DR.. c. Giichrist. Or
dinarily but one director is elected at
a time but as the school law requires
that when a director resigns his place
. shall be filled by new director elect
ed at the next following school eiec-
tion if held within a given length of
time, and as the term of Dr. Gilchrist
has expired it becomes necessary to
elect two members of the board in
stead of one as usually.
DR.. Gilchrist has been a member Of
the school board for many years and
has given universal satisfaction, but
declines to serve any longer on ac-
count of the demands made on hi
time by a place on the board. Mr..
Davies has been on the board but a
comparatively short time, having been
appointed by the remaining members
on the resignation of A. N. Corbin
last fall. Mr.. Davies resignation is
the result of business interests
which require great portion of his
time without the city.
School district No. is composed
of the old districts No. 1, Wenat-
chez, and No. Z, North Wenatchee,
or as it was better known, the
North End. Of late years the North
has been practically unrepresented
on the board and this time they
are coming to the front with a de-
mand for the election of one direc-
tor from their end of the district.
J. w. Quigg has been most promi-
nently mentioned for the place and
many Wenatchee citizens have ex-
pressed a willingness to see him oc-
cupy a place on the board. In We
potcboo TObD Gp11at1v r M
Scheble, Frank Reeves, Guy c..
Browne and U. K. Lail are being
spoken of as candidates for the
place.

YERKES INTERESTED
IN FRUIT LANDS
RESIGNS HIS POSITION WITH
GREAT NORTHERN TO RAISE
BIG RED APPLES in WE
NATCHEE DISTRICT

SEATTLE, Feb. 25.-S. Gardner
Yerkes, for many years connected
with the Great Northern railway
passenger service, has resigned the
position of assistant general passen-
ger agent and will give his entire at
tention to private interests of in
creasing Importance. After March /
he will become actively identified
with the real estate firm of G. A.
Virtue & Co., in which he has been
interested for several months.
Yerkes resignation was forwarded
a few days ago to H. NJ. Adams, as
sistant traffic manager, who is in San
Francisco on business. His success
sor will probably not be announced
until Adams returns to Seattle.
Well known in Seattle.
No man in the transportation busi-
ness in the Northwest is better
known than Yerkes. With the excep-
tion of an interval of about a year
spent at Great Northern headquar-
ters at st. Paul, he has had head
quarters in Seattle continuously for
more than twelve years and the
duties of the various Offices he has
hald have brought him into intimate
business relations with prominent
people in all the cities of the coast
and mountain states.
On coming from the East to Puget
Sound, Yerkes entered the service of
the Northern Pacific and in the early
nineties became general agent for
the company at Porsslownsend. He
was transferred to Seattle and after
a few months resigned to become
general manager of the big mosquito
fleet then operated by the old firm of
Lilly, Bogardus & Co. About ten
years ago he went to the Great Nor
thern as city passenger and ticket
agent, continuing in that position un-
til called to St. Paul to assume charge
of the publicity work of the entire
system.
Returned to Seattle.
On the resignation of A. B. C. Den
niston from the position of general
Western passenger agent, Yerkes
was brought back to Seattle to sue
ceed him. A year or so ago he was
promoted to the position of assistant
general passenger agent, from which
he has now resigned.
The style of the firm which Yerkes
enters will be changer to The Virtue
Yerkes company. A general real es-
tate and loan business, following up
on lines already successfully estab-
lished, will be conducted. 1t is prob
able that special attention will be
given to lands in the irrigated sec
tions of Eeastern Washington where
both Yerkes and Virtue are now
largely interested.

Withdraw American Troops.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Secre-
tary Taft will lpay a second visit to
Cuba in April to see if conditions are
favorable for the withdrawal of the
American troops. In a statement
last night the secretary indicated that
the date of Withdrawal would be de-
termined entirely by the complete
restoration of order and demonstra-
tion of the fact that a peaceful and
fair election could be held. Secre-
tar Taft will also visit Porto Rico
and Panama and next fall will visit
the Philippines.

The Cashmere Press, published by
Leonard Fowler in connection with

Subscribers will receive the Republic

ons for the suspension.
