ing of Mrs. Cardinelli and the death
of two dogs.
Battalion Chief Moore was racing to
the fire when his buggy ran over and

found that Mrs. Cardinelli had set her
self on fire while s%prinkling coal oil
about a bedroom in which a regi-
ment of mosquitoes had done valiant
work last night. The woman's skirts
were blazing f~iercely when, with much
presence of mind, she seized a blanket
and wrapped 1t about herself, ex-
tinguishing the flames. But the room
was on fire and she shouted the alarm
from the window. The iremen did
quick work with two nozzles and soon
had the fire out.

MCKINLEY MUSIC
co. OF n. Y. CITY

WE ARE HERE for the purpose of
demonstrating the celebrated Veg
man piano for the reason herein set
forth. Il is the desire of our COM
pany to introduce this superb make
of instrument in every important
town in the state of Washington. We
claim to have the only stay in tune
piano made, and it is up to us to show
this instrument to every one who has
need of a piano and who wishes to
get value received in piano value. We
will therefore offer for sale for IA
days only one carload of these ia
nous instruments at prices and terms
never before known in the history of
piano selling in Wenatchee. We call
special attention of the farmers,
business men ana fruit growers in
and around the city to this gigantic
advertising proposition.
The time was never more oppor.
tune for you to save money on a fine
piano. We wish to advertise these
pianos. The best advertisement we
could possibly get would be to place
these pianos in your home at a price
which would be so low and on
such easy terms that any one who is
slightly interested would indeed do
themselves an injustice not to come
in and see these lovely instruments
and find out just how cheap you can
buy a fine piano now direct from the
factory i'm New York.
We will give a musicale every af-
ternoon and evening. and we are To-
Gated at the Palmetto ice cream par
Tor, Wenatchee avenue. Hear the cell
ebtated Inner Player Piano. All the
works of the old masters reproduced.
Now, if you are just slightly inter-
ested come in; if not, come in any
way
One good turn deserves another.
If you, as az individual, will help us
put this celebrated piano properly be-
fore the public we will help you pur-
chase a fine piano as cheap as the
regular dealer can. We will help
you save the retail profit and you adj
vertise indirectly for us. This is fair,
and all pianos go on easy terms.
Now, it is more satisfactory to all
concerned in making an nvestigation
to get together and talk this thing
over, so just come right in ana see
us and see how far little money will
go.

Suits Filed Yesterday Affect Title
to Large Business District.

Are you in it? That is the cues
ton that will be asked On the streets
for several days to come Late last
evening, just before the closing of
the county clerks Office, one of the
most sensational cases ever filed in
this county was put on record, as it
involves about half the property on
which the City of Wenatchee now
stands, and throws cloud on the
title of all the property located in
the southeast quarter of Section 10,
township 20 N, range 20 e. w. NJ.
in Chelan county. One corner of this
section is at about the north end of
the present city park, and the line
runs UP Okanogan avenue to the cor
ner of Okanogan avenue and Peachy
street, thence easterly along Peachy
street to the Columbia river.
From the point beginning at the
north end of the park the boundary
line runs in an easterly direction to
the Columbia river, taking in the
south end of the business district OF
the city.
Such buildings as the Methoiis
church, the Chewawa hotel, the Eagle
Livery & Transfer company's barn,
the court house, and hundreds of
dwellings are situated on the land in
question, and in the complaint filed
every property owner in the whole
territory is made a defendant, max
ing a total of four or five hundred
defendants in the action, each OF
whom will be served with a COM
plant and Summons within the near

future, citing them to appear in court
to answer to the allegations in the
complaint.
The property involved is estimated
to be worth about one million dollars,
and is certainly worth scrapping
about.
+ 1t is said that one, Charles Nolop,
homesteaded the quarter section in
question, AMI received his patent
thereto in 1890. Nolop was a mar
ried man and there were three small
children in the family at that time,
but prior to the time the patent was
issued Nolop's wife died, and, under
the decision of the Supreme Court at
that time, when one member of the
community died before a patent was
issued from the government or final
proof was made, the entire estate
vested in the surviving member. So
Nolop held the land and transferred
it in his own name. Later on the
same question was brought up before
the Supreme Court of the United
States, and that august tribunal de-
cided that even though one of the
members of the community died be-
fore the patent was issued, after it
was issued the estate of the deceased
members of the community in the
land patented was a separate one and
should go to the heirs.
That is to say, that in Nolop's case
he could not transfer good title tC
the homestead in question, because
upon the death of his wife her share
Iii. the estate descended to the chill.
