No TRAIN FROM
MONTANA
GREAT NORTHERN INJURED BY
GREAL FLOODS-THOUSA
MAROONED.

Helena, Mont, June 4.-With the
greatest rainfall in 2S years, Monta-
ma tonight is experiencing the great
est decentralization of railroad traffic
since the first train crossed the
Rocky mountains in this state. Thou
sands of passengers are marOOned
railroad tracks are washed out in
every direction, landslides are re-
ported on the Great Northern near
kalispell, ana the rivers are rapidly
rising. This is a very briefly sum-
married. statement. The property
age 10 railroads will run into the
thousands, and many of the big
mountain trestles are weakened
There is, as yet, no prospect of a let
up in the downpour.
Nine Northern Pacific trains, which
were held up in the eastern part of
the state since last Sunday, arrived
today alI Left over the Great North
ern tracks. These trains are now
stalled at Great Falls, Havre and
other points in the northern part of
the state. To the east of Helena the
Great Northern tracks are washed
out near Basin, and both the morn
ing and evening trains from Butte
are held up there
West of Garrison the tracks were
washed out several days ago and no
trains have been able to get through
for a week. This cuts off all trains
to the coast, since the Great North
ern trains can not get through in
the north.
One of the leading theatrical COM
panies is held up in Helena now and
the probabilities are it will have to
remain here a week. The company
has conceled all it's dates for several
days ahead.

DENTAL Student

Davis, of Everett, who was angered

week. Davis was arrested and fur

Nj: KNOW

+ That R. F. Holm's popularity with
the voters of Chelan County, accord
ing to reports, should give that gen.
tleman encouragement to order his
new legislative clothes.
That the kangaroos who keep
hopping into Chief Ferguson's net
and hailed before Judge Palmer say
that they don't mind pungling up a
i've or ten dollar fine when they have
the price, or doing merry stunt on
the rock pile for a few days, but that
they strenuously Z object to being
joshed and ridiculed in the columns
of the Daily World; it is a little too
much for their sensitive nerves.
They would rather vote for local op-
tion or prohibition.
That there are now two democrats
out for sheriff. The present incum-
bent, having served two terms, prob
ably will chase Goblin moths next year
instead of criminals
That the members of the Tammany
Club have increased considerably in
girth since the advent of the new
French chef.
That the continuous winds of this
spring is caused by the tapping
wings of the numerous storks that
have been arriving in Wenatchee and
vicinity.
That if the pessimists will only
keep their breaths to cool their por-
ridge for about five years they will
see such changes in Wenatchee and
Central Washington as even the most
optimistic don't dream of.
That owing to the stopping of traf-
fic last night on the Great Northern
the usual bunch of kangaroos failed
to reach here, but no doubt we will
have the pleasure of seeing them
hopping around as usual some time
today.

Drug Co..
Band Concert.

The Wenatchee Military band, un-
der the leadership OF Louis Crollard.
added another winner to it's pleasing
list of concerts, Friday evening, at
the city park.
Despite the annoying weather the
attendance was large and the crowd
was an enthusiastic one.
The program rendered was an ex-
cellent one, composed of selections
from classical and popular music, ani
was very we'll rendered.
All of the numbers were well re-
ceived by the audience. The nocturne,
Pathetic (Beethoven) was given
in a manner that was much appre-
ciated.
Perhaps the selection which SEEM
ed to please the most was the last
number, Sweet Sixteen,' by Mills.
The music is very catchy and the
crowd grew enthusiastic about it.

To MAKE SAM
TARY MOVE
HEALTH OFFICER KAUPP Is
PLANNING TO MAKE A BIG
RAID ON THE FILTHY PLACES,

DR.. A. T. Kaupp, city health officer,
says he will be ready the first of the
incoming week to begin a campaign
against the unsanitary places which
have not yet been cleaned up in this
city.
Early next week some information
will be published which will, 40
doubt, be of interest to those who be-
lieve in proper sanitation in this city.
Many buildings in the alleys of our
principal streets are the breeding
places of disease.
1t will be very interesting to learn
what the health officer has to say next
week.

Early Wednesday morning a slide
occurred at the lower end of the
big slide flume on Peshastin ditch,
causing about 200 feet of the old
ditch work to slide. Investigation
shows that the action was caused by
seepage, and no blame is attached
to anyone. 1t is at a point where
water has always run and where there
has never been any trouble before.
Repair work is now in progress and
the damage done will all be fixed up
in few days. Flume work will take
the place of the ditch at this point
and the repairs will cost about 1925.
