FRUIT FOR
CIRCUS PEOPLE
CIRCUS FOLKS CARRY THEIR
"REMINISCENCES THROUGHOUT
THE LAND.-ENLIsT THEIR
AID IN BOOSTING OUR VALLEY

The suggestion has been made
that Wenatchee fruit growers make
the circus people acquainted with
the products of the valley by bring
ing in small contributions of fruit
to tickle their palates. 1t is we'll
known that in their travels circus
folks spread the fame of the regions
through which they pass, and the
idea that local fruit growers who
come to town circus day should each
bring a small sample from his or
chard has been suggested not only
from the standpoint of hospitality
and circus people get little enough OF
that-but also to give them pleas
ant recollection of their visit, which
they are sure to spread throughout
the United States.
The individual sacrifice would be
insignificant, and circus people are
human and WOULD appreciate it..
Don't be too lavish and create a ca
nival of cholera morbus.

Seattle, Aug. 11.-H. e. Wey-
mouth. formerly we'll known in the
mining circles, but lately engaged in
the insurance business in this city,
is under arrest accused of embez-
cling thousands of dollars. The ar
rest was caused by s. C. Osborne Of
the Commonwealth Insurance COM
pany, which Weymouth has repre-
scented here. Osborne alleges that
Weymouth made away with ten
thousand dollars in the last fourteen
months, although the specific offense
with which he is charged is the con-
version to his own use of two small
checks, aggregating only ST..
Weymouth conducted the business
for the company under his own name
up until the time he was bought out
by Osborne, and his irregularities
have only recently been discovered.
The exact method he followed has
not ben made public, but it seems to
have been clumsy appropriation OF
the company's moneys coming into
his hands.

He said that Alaska Is not yet ready

tremely doubtful that a good house Of

that the white residents Of Alaska

congressman CLARK OF fI0rloa says
He Is No Lawyer.
Washington, April 1.-Debate of the
agricultural appropriation bill was de-
void Of the charges and imputations
which marked its consideration on
Monday and Tuesday. More progress
was made with the measure than on
any previous day, and the Indications
are that It will get through tomor-
row.
Today's discussion dwelt on the
amendment for an increased appro-
priatIon for the farmers bulletins
which, however, was refused and the
subject Of inquiries into road build
Ing, etc, by the department, the
trend Of opinion being that such work
should be encouraged.
The session was opened with a bit
ter attack on Attorney General Bon
aparte by Nj. Clark (Florida), who
denounced him al being no lawyer
and unfit to hold the office.
The occasion for the utterance was
the reporting Of the. committee of a
resolution by Mr.. Clark calling for a
statement Of the expense connected
with peonage Investigations and pros
ecutions.
That the resolution was simply a
further and unnecessary attack on
the attorney general by Nj. Clark
was the declaration OF Mr.. Caulield
(Missouri), who led the opposition.
The resolution was tabled. At 4:45
y. m. the house adjourned.
