LARGE CROWD AT BOTH AFTER.
NOON AND EVENING PEREOE-
MANCE.-OVER $4,000 TAKEN.

Five thousand people saw the cir
Gus yesterday. Of this number 2,S00
visited the show in the afternoon
and over 2,000 went at night The
admission fee was one dollar with
an extra charge of fifty cents for re-
served seats. Then the side show
charged 25 cents, so that in all the
average to each person was $1.25.
On this basis the total receipts
amounted to over $4,000.
With the Norris & Rowe's circus
there were altogether three hundred
people.
The delay of the train arriving in
Wenatchee was much of a disap-
pointment, and, as a result, the pa
rade had to be dispensed with. The
wind blew in the afternoon which
made it extremely disagreeable. but
Notwithstanding these annoyances
the people went and enjoyed them
selves. AS a show town, Wenatchee
surprised the circus managers, ana
there is now no question but that
there will be a circus every year or
two from this on.
The only disappointing feature in

mission price was raised from the
regular show price of so cents to a
dollar for tickets. The management
did not carry out their agreement
with the city council that the charge
was to be fifty cents.
Notwithstanding this, everybody
went and was apparently satisfied.
The old-time circus atmosphere was
present at this show. The bespan-
gled ladies and gentlemen on the fat
horses, the acrobatic performers, the
clowns and the chariot, elephant and
camel races, the trained animals
were all there. The dust was fierce
but no one left the tent on account
of it,

BUILD DEPOT
EVERETT ALARMED AT REPORT
CHANGE IN PLANS.

Everett, June 26-An Everett
business man who was in Seattle
yesterday afternoon brought back
the disquieting rumor, which he got
from a railroad contractor there.
that the Great Northern had decided
to defer indefinitely the construction
of depot at Everett.
1t was stated that the plan was TO
make some temporary addition 10
the present depot facilities and let
the 100000 depot project rest for 8
time, the inference being that de- l.
opments in railroad building in this
section might make it desirable to
very greatly alter the Great North
ern's plans.
This rumor is in fiat contradiction
of the promise made by General
Manager Gruber, of the Great North
ern, when he was in Everett few
months ago, for he said work would
begin on the $10Q ,0Q9f depot by the
first of July.
But there have been Developments
in Seattle and Portland in the past
few weeks which indicate that the
Great Northern and the Southern
Pacific are on quite friendly terms.
and it may be that the interests OF
some other road now on the way to
Everett may be responsible 70. the
change n4the Great Northern's plan
as to the depot.
It is certain that if the company
was ready to go ahead with construc-
tion of the depot when General Man.
ager Gruber was here three months
ago the reason for postponemaaC
now is not financial.
No one authorized to speak au-
thoritatively for the Great Northern
could be reached last evening.

LEAVENWORTH NOTES.
(FrOm the EchO.)

DR.. Mccoy and Bob Cademan came
up from Wenatchee yesterday after
noon. The former by appointment
to meet Mr.. Davis, and the latter
TO meet old friends after an absence
of a year.
A. D. Allen who returned from
Oregon several months ago TO i'm
prove a valuable tract he owns near
Chiwaukum said to the writer few
days ago that while he liked Oregon
and did not think his Washington
land was any more productive than
the Oregon land yet our market for
all kinds of farm and orchard prod
ucts were so very much superior that
he preferred to live here. Lots of
stuff, he said, that sold for a good
price here, rotted on the ground in
Oregon for want of market in which
to sell it. This is one of the adyan-
tages that Washington people enjoy
that should not be lost sight of.
: John Miller returned from the
Red Mountain mining district last
week. Ee and Dan Ryan have been
prospecting for the past three weeks
and Mr. Miller says they discovered
and located several claims on which
they did considerable work, which
show valuable ore bodies. One, an
eight foot ledge of gold and silver,
tho other a .four-foot vein of gold
and copper, show up well and prom
lse to develop rich bodies of ore as
depth is reached. The property is To-
Gated near where the Lam b-Davis Co.
own twenty-six claims, on some of
which several thousand dollars worth
of development work has been done.
Mr.. Miller returned to the scene Of
work last Sunday and will make fur
ther investigation, the result OF which
he promises to report to us.

COMMENTS ON
NAVARRO
YAKIMA HERALD HAS A FEW
WORDS TO SAY in REFERENCE
TO CHELAN CO.'S CANDIDATE.

l. A. Navarro of Wenatchee is In
the city for few days renewing old
acquaintance. Mr.. Navarro lived In
the Yakima country about 20 years
ago, and as a civil engineer had
much to do with the laying out of
the present townsite of North Yaki-
ma and the running of the lines for
the various irrigating bitches and
canals. He is now candidate for
state land commissioner on the re-
publican ticket. Speaking of his can
didacy, Mr.. Navarro said:
Il have entered the field against
Mr.. Ross for the office of state land
commissioner upon platform that I
think will meet with the approval of
every citizen of the state of Washing
ton that wants square deal and Is
willing that his neighbor should
have the same. If elected | shall
stand for no hearding of applicants
deposits; no delay in acting on lahl
applications; the greatest publicity
in all transactions; square deal for
all under the law; no favoritism; an
honest guardianship of the states in
heritance under my charge; for the
good of the state and not in the in
tereSt of my own reelection. My
record as a citizen and business man
in your community is such that I
have no hesitancy in leaving my des-
tiny as far as Yakima county is con-
cerned in the hands of it's voters; I
have no fears of the outcome in the
communities in which I am known,
and before the campaign is over
expect to reach most of the portions
of the state. l might add that / am
greatly encouraged with the spirit
in which the announcement of my
candidacy is received by the people
of the state and believe that l have
more than a fighting chance. Yak

High School Walks Ahay

High school received the ball on the 20-yard line. Davis started by buclSing the line for ten yards. This was fol- lowed by two end runs by Street which netted 6 yards. Davis was given the ball and by terrific buck went over for a touchdown. Street kicked goal.
 Street kicked the ball to Agrcultural's 8 five-yard line and the man was downed in his tracks. Blountsville was forced to kick and Estes was downed in mid field After a buck by Brown had gained 15 yards Street on a cross-buck made S5 yards and touchdown. Street kicked goal.
 Blountsville with four new men in the game started the second half with rush, Chumley at half and Brantley at tackle playing star ball. After an exchange of punts and much see-sawing it was High schools ball on their 25-yard line. A buck by Webb over right guard netted ten yards. An onside kick got ten more. Two forward passes by Ford and Lanier brought the ball to the 35-yard line. Street by a magnificent buck and run made B yards and a touchdown. He kicked goal. The game ended with the score 24 to O.

CITIZENS WRITE LETTERS
 OPPOSING NEW COUNTY

tional amendment is to create g. new county out of a part (the greater part) of Jefferson, a part of Walker, a part of Tuscaloosa and a part of Bibb counties, but if the constitutional amendment is adopted, ere long you will see the entire state in the throes of contests for the or ganization of new counties, for by splic- ing and geremandering and manipulating there is hardly a section of the state that cannot become involved.
 We ask you not only to vote against, but also to work against this proposed constitutional amendment, and help us to keep intact old Jefferson, the pride of the state.

Here is what sBll Bailey. said recently in the Chicago American about Frank l Chance the first baseman-nanager of the vanauishing Cubs the three-tim pen nant winners and two-time champions of the world:
 Cubs win and einch the pennant!3 l That was the message flashed over the wire this afternoon, and Frank LeRoy l Chance. manager of the Cubs. became the most envied man in baseball. Today Chance won the title of the three-time pennant winner a sobriquet that every baseball manager covets. Today Frank Chance took his place by the side of the great Charles A Comisl1ey and Fred Clarke of Pittsburg. Great is Frank Chance on this day. And what of the manager who has accomplished the thing that was considered impossible? He may be the Sphinx on the field. But the rules that have brought him success are as simple as the day. Here they are.
 Be on the square
 Do everything above board.
 Remember nothing off the ball field that occurs thereon
 You've heard of the managers who re- fused to permit their players to take glass of beer. And it's mighty seldom that one of these managers succeeds. And for the simple reason that baseball play CTS consider themselves free men-at lib- erty to do what they will. The result is that they visit the saloons when the man. ager is not about. That is not Chance.
 4l Drink in moderation if you wish after the game. But under no circumstances in the morning"
 And more than that. Chance will drink with his men after the game. In mod eration, mind you, and the result is that there isn't man on the Cubs team that drinks to excess.
 Remember nothing off the ball field that occurs thereon
 That is one of the great rules of this manager Every year before the season begins he calls his men to his room. What occurs there has often been told by the fellows who attended the session. And the lecture runs like this:
 When a mans on the ball field he says things which he doesn't mean. If one of you fellows makes a bad play I'll call you, and call you hard. l may even call you names; the chances are that l will. But what I say must not be re- membered when the game is at an end. There is nothing personal in what I mean"
 That's the keynote of his success. There isn't d man on the Cub team that he wouldn't call" There never will be while he is manager. But the man who is "ealled" understands And after the game the harsh words are forgotten and the men are friends.
 Stories of dissension in the ranks of the Cubs were spread in the middle of the season. And they had their origin in this

Blountsville, October 25.-(Special.)-Th Birmingham High school, in one of the fastest games ever seen here, defeated the Ninth District Agricultural college by score of 24 to 0. Though the visitors were outweighed. the game was never in doubt. But in giving credit to the Birmingham boys one must not overlook Shirlng, left guard, nor Street, left half. To these men is due in large measure the praise Street at left half was like a whirlwind In every touchdown Streets brilliant play ing was evident. His bunting, goal kick ing. tacklng and nerve were of a class seldom seen on a preparatory team. To- ward the middle of the last half Streets nose was broken in two places. But this did not prevent him from continuing the game.
 The Blountsville team which made such a good showing against Owenton last Saturday was unable to gain ten yards except on two occasions, while on the other hand the High school was only held for downs once. Coach Wallace of Birmingham deserves great credit indeed for developing the machine-like play of his team.

Championship battles begin in real earnest next Saturday, October Sl, for southern football teams.
 The biggest game of that day in the south should be the Tech Tennessee affair while the best game in which a southern team takes part will be the vanderbilt-M Michigan game in Ann Arbor.
 The Vanderbilt Michigan game should be the best that these two colleges have ever played. The Commodores are weak this year, but the Wolverines are weaker still and with luck the Nashville team might win. It isn't any even money bet but there is 8 swell chance of the thing.
 The best battle in the south should be that at Ponce DeLeon park between Tech and Tennessee. At the opening of the season the Knoxville team was doped out as the second or third strongest of the s. L A. A. while Tech | Atlanta team has been coming right l along. though, and may give the visi- I tors an awful run. The Tennesseans will come down thirsting for revenge. Last season the game was settled by a single decision and the Tennessee ms | still feel that they got the worst Of that decision. This is disputed by Teci

MENDMENT TALK
 GROWING INTENS [ Oyerton Confident of Good
 Roads Proposition HAMBURGER FAV0RS ALL But Hopes Especially to See Good Roads Amendment carry-says
 Mobile Will Have Fine
 Veterans Reunion.
HAMBURGER FAVORS ALL

Enthusiasm for the Overton good roads amendment is reaching high pitch as the day of the election ap- proaches. This is the only amendment which is not opposed by an organized movement, and reports come from all parts of the state that the farmers and townsmen are going to the polls and vote to give the legislature power to aid in the building of hard roads.
 The vast importance of three amend ments 10 the constitution is just be- ginning to reach the understanding of the voters Next to the constitutional convention itself and the ratification of the new constitution, this is per haps the most important political ques- ton that has been presented for constd- eration.
 The movement for good roads has been spreading over the state for over year. In many counties bond issues have paved the way for county de- velopment. and there has been a gen eral cry for better and more lasting highways.
 As Senator Overton, the east Ala bama senator who is responsible for the submission of the proposition, said recently. 'The Farmers union of the state and most all of the county or ganizations have formally indorsed the amendment The rural carriers of the state in convention, the fourth class postma sters of the state in their re- cent meeting at Birmingham, the boards of trade. commercial clubs and wholesale. merchants of the largest cities have all urged it's adoption.
 T am particularly pleased with the fact that so far no body or organiza- tion of men has opposed the amend ment. If means more to the farmer than to any other class of people and they are enthusiastic in their support. The only danger of defeat is in a fail ure of the voter to mark his ballot. Let everybody be sure to remember that the ticket must be carefully marked. and our good roads amend ment should be indorsed by over 100, GOO people"
 Max Hamburger. representative from Mobile. who was in the city Sat urday. said: "I am in favor of all three amendments, but l am especially de- sirous of seeing that good roads amendment go through. There should not be a single vote cast against it. Alabama is far behind the rest of the country in this respect, and it is high time we were beginning a careful sys tenn of well laid state high ways
 We are preparing a great state re- union for the veterans in Mobile dur ing the latter part of next month. We want every veteran in the state to attend, and promise them a royal time. l never saw the people of Mobile so enthusiastic, and the preparations are being made on large scale"

ANOTHER ARRESTIN
 COCAINE CAMPAIGN

A negro was arrested last night by Dep uty sheriffs for unlawfuly selling cocaine. J l.. Erby is his name. and his arrest was effected by Deputy Sheriffs Bell Chew and Ed H. Wilson at the corner of First aN eEue and Twenty sixth street.
 This arrest is unique by reason of the fact that marked money will figure in the evidence against the negro. negro pur- chased the drug and paid for it with the money which had previously been marked with the date and other Identification marks. >When Erby was arrested he had the marked money on his person.
 He kert the cocaine in a room in his cabin. and when if was searched by the officers a large quantity of cocaine and empty cocaine bottles were discovered
 Another charge was also docketed against him when he was placed in the county jail, this one being for violating the prohibition law. Evidence is alleged to have been secured by the deputies Sat- urday that he was selling whisky
