HANDSOME DISPLAY.
Fred Alter Responsible for the Novel
idea.

The show windows of the Inland
Real Estate company have attract
ed many people the past few days,
drawn thither by novel and inge-
NOUS display. The window shows
the company offices and connections
by means of a railroad. A minia-
ture track has been laid from the
firms office in Seattle to North Yaki-
ma showing the way stations and es-
pecially those where irrigated lands
are sold by the company. Along the
way bearing orchards cheer the trav-
elers, who are bound to the Yakima
country in Pullman coaches. The
miniature fruit trees with their
bright red apples certainly have the
appearance of being "the real thing"
and makes a most excellent advertis-
ing card for the company. The COM
pany's Hanford office is represented
and connected up with North Yaki-
ma by an auto line sporting cars that
appear to be exceeding the speed lin
it. Fred Alter is the artist and he
has made good job of 1t.

dOn KNOW gust now | would
decide this go If a decision were
called for, but am inclined to favor
Loudon. Perhaps my sympathies
may have been with him. At any
rate he is entitled TO considerable
praise for his work tonight"
Mr. Kittinger is one Of the referees
of the Seattle Athletic club.
Kicker in the main go proved to be
something of iollier, and the crowd
was kept hilarious by his antics.
"He reminds me of a big lumber jack.
and l imagine would throw his hat
on the ground with his coat on top
Of il roll up his sleeves and spit OH
his hands, after which he might wind
MP his arms with a few wild swings
and invite all covers" commented
one OF the ringside seat holders.
In the first round he slipped to the
floor so many times and took the
count OF nine, all the time rubbering
around at the crowd and winkins
very knowingly. These rests became
so frequent that very little fighting
was done, and he was cautioned that
such antics were sufficient to dis
qualify him. However, Berry would
put him to his knees and on couple
of instances struck him, checking the
force OF his blow in time to save him
self from being ruled out.
Rickers in main 20 proved to be
kind-hearted friend should take him
TO one side and in q kindly tone tell
him that when he gets in the ring the
/ crowd has coughed up to see him
and if they want 10 take in comedy
such things come TO town now and
then. And they might add that
Rickers is not a first-clase comedian.
The loop holes for disqualification
were so numerous, and as both men
were on their feet at the end of the
third round, the referee called for a
fourth round, and in this spasm
Berry showed himself TO be head and
shoulders above the Toppenish giant.
Little Moe representing the light
weights for Seattle, has been thtre
and let his man Hassig fight himse'f
ont in the first round. Hassig avei-
IDENTITY came into the ring intendins
TO keep away from his man for a few
minutes al first. but Moe. who is 4
little general, drew him out before
they had hardly settled themselves.
and Hassis fought hard and fast. He
is a game boy. but showed ineNpeli-
ence in doing as the other fellow
wanted him 10. Moe with his head
forward and his little eyes cleaning
wickedly kept himself well covered
and walked after his man all the
time keeping the Toppenish lad one
moment on the defensive and the
next fighting back hard.
The second round Hassig showed
up with some good advice from tho
men in his corner and no damage
was done, both boys slowing up with
Moe following his man. but the latter
content 10 be followed The third
round Hassig started in with rush
that brought he towel into the ring
about one minute and eight second
later, and the Seattle club had an
other scalp in their belt.

against either Berry or Rickers. put
the kibosh on Tom Sewell in the first
exchange of the second round, He

1t was good show, and no one
came away who felt he had not had
good run for his money.
Through no fault of the club the
waits between bouts were a little
drawn out and signs of impatience
were manifested 1t was eXpecte l

of the boys failed TO put in an ap-

sition of the also ran compared with
the Marshall-Loudon go, Loudon
making his first appearance in a ring,
and he certainly delivered the goods
and, while looking TO be about half
as big as Marshall, put some across
that convinced George in the early
part of the first round that a little
fat in some cases is a whole lot TO
carry Marshall knows the game,
and when, after minutes fighting,
he was lifted off his feet for gen.
uine knock down. the spectators
knew that this one bout alone was
worth the mon>r.
The bout was scheduled as a three
two-minute round bout with no de-
cision. In round one Marshall found
his man with a short-arm hook that
made Loudon keep away for few
seconds, and he was heard to say
THAT listened like a warm one to
me- However the stall lasted only
an instant and he came back strong
with a right-arm jab that brought a
huge grin to Marshall's face as he
sprang to his feet. The first round
ended with both boys fighting hard
and honors even.
In the next round they both
seemed anxious, but the only damage
done was the throwing away of a
number of wild swings.

Here Loudon's inexperience made
the referee stop further argument, by
assessing him with a foul, although
unintentional on Loudon's part. Had

ASSESSORS TO WAR.
If Underestimate Deputies Assess
Property at Real Value.

If the average citizen of Yakima
county does not tell the deputy as
SCISSOR the real value of an article
when making out his list, then the
deputy is authorized to assess at full
value. No GO per cent basis goes.
The intent and purpose of the law is
to get the real value. The assessors
of the state have agreed to assess
at the basis of 60 per cent. as a mat
ter of uniformity. County Assessor
Sindall wants it understood that this
means real and actual value.
Instructions to field men in Iak-
ma county are that what is wanted
is GO per cent of the value at which
an article could be sold or replaced
II the deputy knows that horse l..
worth 500 when the owner gives it
at $50, then the deputy is to assess
full value
This personal property assessment
is enough of farce as it is" said
Mr.. Sindall. considering the fact
that man is allowed $500 exempt
and then assessed on a basis of GO
per cent he has really an exemption
of $500. This office is endeavoring ~
play f. witt! the peo ne. and we
want hem to play fair with us. Take
this assessment, for instance" he
said. noting one that :epntg car

household GOODS at $40, and 1t 5

cost more than $40. And then nc
feels that he should be assessed m
basis of co per cent.

Besides the timber cruising for
taxation purposes. another plan to-

is the classifying and grading OF agri-

King county has the timber lands
graded, and Spokane county Is grad

county board can be induced to au-
thorize the expenditure of funds in

The plan is to provide separate
