NIGHT RIDERS DEATH
CAUSES CRITICISM
THE DEATH Of NIGHT RIDER WILSON
CAUSES ANGER.

Union City. Tenn, Nov. 20
The remains Of Tom Wilson,
the alleged hangman Of Captain
Rankin reached here at 12:45
o'clock today from Nashville.
The body was met at the train
Hv Zach Wilson. a brother. and
"a number of men from the Clay
CON neighborhood. where Wilson
lived They and their local
friends did not hesitate to vent
their feelings openly. The state,
Uav Patterson and the prosecut-
Ing attorneys came i'm for a full
share of bitter criticism. which
Eas outspoken on the streets.
The news of Wilson'S death,
which was caused from a con-
s.s.ita chill. had its effect upon
the prisoners confined here in
rre barracks. The guard was
doubled and a very few visitors
were allowed to see the prison
.r..
Ihe easket containing Wilson's
body Was opened in a local un-
Uar.ak.ug establishment, and the
deceased brother expressed
himself as well satisfied with the
manner BOO which the remains had
been prepared. All expenses
uI burial win be borne by the
state
Itis regarded as extremely un-
fortunate that Wilson should
have died in prison, as it will no
doubt cause the sympathetic
feeling toward the night riders
throughout the county to become
stronger and viii make it all the
harder for the state to secure
..s iuries t0 try the other mem
beers of the clans. Men who
have hitherto remained silent
were outspoken and said that
tHa state was not treating the
prisoners fairly and that the nine
men should have been held here.
Everything now points to inn
mediate action on the part Of
.re state i'm returning indict-
ments and pressing the trials of
.be alleged murderers Of Cap
tain Rankin
In addition TO the night riders
who killed Rankin, there has
been others arrested for the
awful whipping Of two farmers
@ few nights ag). The Grand
jury secured evidence in con-
necd0n with this raid, when
che night riders whipped
Rash Owens and Pete Clack,
two prominent farmers. The
whipping of these two men was
81 such "a brutal and revolving
nature as TO cause one of the
younger members of the masked
gang 20 fall in a faint at the
sight
His associates removed shis
mask and robes and drenched
him with cold water. Their own
masks became loosened in doing
this and they were recognized,
and the arrest followed.

A, NEW SLOGAN
"The Wenatchee Way" Suggestive
of the Progressive Spirit of the
Town.

Walter M. Olive, one of the livest
boosters that any town ever had, was
in the Office of the World last night
to comment upon the bridge and 9TH
er matters of interest, and states that
in his estimation the coming bridge
demonstration ought to be the biggest
blowout that Wenatchee ever had.
"a recent clipping from one of the
upriver papers spoke of the 'Wenat-
chez way and the idea struck me,
said Mr.. Olive, that there is a phrase
which should be used as slogan by
the people of this city. They talk
about the Seattle Spirit" and the
Pullman Pull" and Yakima is
Better" and ''Kittitas is Best" but
the ''Wenatchee Way" eclipses them
all. The Wenatchee Way is an ex-
preston of the manner in which en-
terprises, public and private, are
handled in the best town in the
state of Washington. In other
words, the Wenatchee Way means
that we get what we go after.

MESDAMES CULP
AND TIbbITS
ENTERTAIN

At the invitation of Mrs. John Culp
and Mrs. M. o. Tibbits, the beautiful
home of the latter on King street was
the scene of large gathering yester-
day afternoon, complimentary to Mrs.
]. H. Ogburn of Virginia, daughter of
Mrs. Tibbits, and Mrs. Frank Culp,
who has so recently returned from
her bridal tour through California
and Old Mexico.
Little Marion Tibbits opened the
door to the guests, who then passed
into the commodious living room,
where the receiving party stood. The
beauty of the room was further en-
hanced by trimmings of green pine
boughs interspersed with pink and
white chrysanthemums, above the
arches and windows. On the piano
was banked the green, frightened by
the flowers, while on the mantel
above the huge fireplace were arrang-
ed potted plants, amidst the green
branches, against a background of.
beautiful peacock feathers.
Miss Mary Duff ushered the guests
into the dining-room, where the green
was used in ornamenting the side
board and window lodges. The table
was pretty with the soft tints of pi:k
and white. In the center was beau
tiful point lace piece over pink, sur
mounted by a bowl of pink and white
carnations.
Mrs. John Seaman and Mrs. FL. j.
Olive presided at the urns, and were
assisted in serving the dainty re-

CHICKEN SHOW
OPENED TODAY

The rooster is cock of the walk to-
day on Wenatcnee avenue. The
Fourth Annual Show of the Wenat-
chez Poultry Association began this
morning. Many fine specimens of
birds are on exhibit.
The show this year is a success
already and much interest is mani
fest not only among chicken fanciers
but by the people generally.
If one can judge by the enthusi-
asm shown, it will be only a short
time till Wenatchee will be famous
for chickens as we'll as for Big Red
Apples.
To paraphrase wellknown book,

tive of the show, might we'll be

TALKS OF WASH.
lNGT0N SCENERY
Courier Contains inter-
view of Country Among the Cas-
cades and Along Wenatchee River

and beautiful as mountain scenery
could be.
There were the loftier peaks of the
Cascades covered with snow, while
below them everywhere was the for
est primeval, and beside all that, was
the dashing Wenatchee river flowing
to the Columbia-and thus picture
was presented that would appeal to
any nature.
Mr.. Johnson declares that he
watched his artist friend to see what
impression this Cascade scenery was
making upon his mind-but he sat
like stole until the very summit OF
the switchback was reached, when he
cried out, What a fool I have been,
crossing the ocean year after year
to see the same mountains, the same
people, while all the time in my own
country is to be found the most mag
nificent and the most beautiful seen

first visit, but 1 shall come back
again; shall come often, and bring
my friends with me. We in New
York think we know everything-but
my friend addressing Mr.. Johnson)
we know nothing. Indeed, we know
nothing!"
Again, insisting upon storytelling.
Mr. Johnson refers to Sabbath
morning when the rainy season was
drawing to a close, and discussing
with another friend the beauties of
the mountain scenery:

The Seattle Times of yesterday
contained an editorial commenting
upon the grandeur of Washington
scenery and especially upon the
beauties of the Cascades along the
line of the Great Northern and of
the country up the Wenatchee river.
Among other things the article
says:
A few years ago Mr.. E. Polk John
son, a special agent for the United
States Treasury, was located in Seat
tie and like thousands of other
men identified with the public serv-
ice, became attached to the place of
his location.
Mr.. Johnson is now stationed in
Louisville, Kentucky, and on Decem-
ber % was interviewed in the Louis
Vile Courier Times touching on the
Alaska-Yukon-Paci Exposition.
The Times is the evening edition
of the Louisville Courier-Journal,
over which Henry Watterson pre-
sides, and is, therefore, an important
publication in the state of Kentucky.
After having related his own ex-
perience and his peculiar sensations
when first crossing the Rocky and
the Cascade mountains, and coming
down into Western Washington, he
tells a little story of an artist who
happened to be riding upon the same
train.
1t was in the summer time and the
sky was clear, and as the train as
cended from Leavenworth to the
switchback-for this was before the
days of the tunnel-and conditions
