OBITUARY

The following tribute was pre-.
pared by one Of Harold Betty's class
mates in the High School:
Harold Betty was born December
~. 1890, at Toledo. Wash, and
died Aug. II, 1908. after a short
illness OF typhoid fever.
The funeral services were held on
Wednesday forenoon at 1890, Rev.
Beightof. officiating. He was laid to
rest in the Wenatchee cemetery, be-
side his sister Maroa, who died a
few days before. The many beau
tiful floral offerings indicated the es-
TEEN in which the young man was
held. The young men of his high
school class acted as pallbearers, and
many of his school friends and mem
bers of the faculty who were in town
attended the services.
Harold would have been a senior
this year, ana would have graduated
next June, although he had been in
the high school only q year. His
quiet unassuming manners won for
him a high place in the estimation
of those who knew him. OF a re-
markedly genial disposition. he al
ways met his friends with an open
heartedness which bound them to
him with hoops of steel.
His industry and faithfu1ness to
any task set before him, whether at
home or at school, were the keyn0tes
Of his character. Although he has
gone from out "our bourne of time
and place." our thoughts will al
ways go back to him. with loving
memories. His father ana mother
have our deepest sympathy in their
loss.
In the blest kingdom meek of JOY
and love,
There entertained him all the saints
above.
In solemn troops and sweet societies
That sing, and singing in their glory
move,
And wipe the tears forever from his
eyes.

The Battle OF Life.


The attraction at the Wenatchee
theatre on Saturday, August Is, will
be Raymond Bells successful COM
edy-drama, entitled The Battle OF
Life" As the name implies. the plot
hinges upon beautiful woman's
struggle against the cunning treach-
cry OF an unprincipled scoundrel;
her ultimate fall and the long hard
struggle to regain her position In
life.. It Is play that everyone
should see on account of the strong,
moral lesson, and one that the most
critical cannot fail to enjoy. Its
comedy Is well intermingled and is
wholesome and entertaining. It's
dramatic situations are intense and
exciting. but free from sensation of
the blood and thunder type. Being
produced by an excellent company 1t
is a rare theatrical treat.

JUDGE NAVARRO SPREADS WE
NATCHEE'S FAME.
The following interview from
Judge Navarro appeared in the P.-I.
yesterday:
Judge l. A. Navarro, of Wenat-
chez, says that contractors for the
Washington & Great Northern rail-
road are assembling tools and mate
rails at Columbia siding, preparatory
to building branch line of the G.
N. railroad up Moses Coulee to tap
the Big Bend wheat fields. The
work of preparation is being pushed
but the actual time of beginning
construction has not been set.
Porter Brothers, railroad contrac-
tors, have the work in hand and are
shipping material up the Columbia
river to Orondo from Wenatchee.
Fruit shipments from Wenatchee
have doubled, according to Mr.. Ma
varre. Apricots and plums are be-
ing shipped at present, and three ex-
press cars day are being sent out
Of the city. Last year cOnsignments
averaged one and a half cars a day
during the fruit season.
A new hotel has been built in We
natchee, and an electric light and
gas plant is being built in the city
at a cost of $4,000.
A four hundred-barrel flour mill
began grinding last week. An cleo
trio power plant is being built at En-
tiat, on the Columbia river, and
Scheble and Clark are building an
electric light plant nt Sherman's
mill, near Cashmere, which will be
used to supply additional light AMI
power to Wenatchee.
Mr.. Navarro is a candidate for
land commissioner and is in the city
lining up voters. Judge Navarro
has been a resident of Washington
since 1873, and has held success
sion of state and county Offices dur
ing the past twenty years.

SPECIAL SEATTLE CORREsPON.
DENCE.

Seattle, August 12.-As the cost
of building now is only about sixty
per cent of what it was one year
ago and about Is per cent of what
it will likely be one year hence when
normal conditions are fully re-
stored, the Seattle Chamber of
Commerce is urging those who have
little money lying idle in the banks
to build homes for themselves. A
campaign of education to show the
people the wisdom of owning their
own homes instead of paying rent
has been undertaken by the cham
Der. AS the conditions prevailing in
Seattle are the same as in other parts
of the state it is a question that could
well be taken up by progressive citi-
zens of all the towns in Washing
ton.

The remarkable rate war between
the American and Canadian steam
ship lines that make 1t possible to
go to Vancouver or Victoria from
here for 25 cents continues without
any sign of the end being in sight.
The boats that run between here
and the Canadian cities are crowded
in every trip, and the purchases that
the tourists made while away from
home brought such a roar from Sc
attic merchants that the treasury de-
partment has made ruling that the
customs men must collect duty on
all goods. Heretofore, the general
rule that Americans returning from
IA foreign country could bring back
800 worth of goods free has been
in effect, but as many Of the tourists
go to the Canadian cities only to
make purchases the privilege has
been withdrawn.

Detailed reports of wheat harvest
ing coming from all sections of the
state to the office of Deputy State
Grain Inspector s. s. King confirm
the estimate made by the chief early
in the season to the effect that the
wheat harvest this year will be 60
per cent of last years yield. State
Grain Inspector j. w. Arrasmith,
writing from Colfax reports that
harvesting is progressing rapidly in
that section, and that the crop was
more abundant than anticipated.
During the past few days Arrasmith
stated he has examined much grain
and finds such varieties as forty
fold, white amber and early sown
Red Russian are we'll filled, and that
they promise good yield. Late sown
Red Russian and all varieties of
spring sown grain have, however,
been badly injured by the hot wealth
ter, and the yield will be compare
lively light. Reports from Ritzville.
Bickleton. Klickitat county, Walla
Walla, Davenport and sections of
Whitman county generally estimate
| the production of early sown grain
at Is per cent, Of last years crop.
while the yield OF the spring grown
grain in some instances falls below
the average Of SO per cent Of the
last harvest.
