CoNkIIN GUILTY
Judge kaufman Takes Part of
Charge Gu; of the Hands of
the Jury.

George 3. Conklin was found
guilty Saturday afternoon in the
circuit court of the charge of assault
ing D. NJ Cook in the Shardlow sa-
loon on September 9, 1907. The
grayer charge of assault with a dead
~ weapon as taken from the jury by
Judge Kaufman at the suggestion of
Attorney Luce, who represented
Conklin and who showed by evidence
that the assault was provoked by an
unprovoked attack of Cook.
The conviction is the fourth of this
term, not one case having gone
against Prosecuting Attorney Wende
so far. For three days there has been
a series of one conviction each day.
Il situation which is not found in
many criminal courts, and which
shows the excellent workings of the
Yakima county courts and the rapid
presentation of evidence and argu-
ments on the part of the attorneys.
Conklin was charged with assault
ing and badly cutting Cook with a
knife. Al the time of the assault It
was feared that Cook would die and
there would be a case of manslaught-
er against Conklin.

Fourth and extending to the sixth of
July for return, and there is every
assurance that this will be granted.
Altogether. the Fourth of July
celebration of North Yakima will be
about the biggest event ever known
in the history of the state and will be
we'll worth the attention of every citi-
zen of central Washington. Those
who miss it, and it seems few people
intend to. from word received from
towns in the valley, will really miss
a treat.

DISPLAY THE FRUIT.
Was Great Advertising Feature of
Fair Week and Would Be Good
Plan for Conventions.

When planning decorations for the
and for the gathering of the Grand
Army, merchants of North Yakima
can remember with pride the chit"
they made during state fair week
by decorating their windows with
fruit at the request of the publicity
committee. And they can make an
other hit if they will do the same
thing during the conventions.
A plentiful supply of small fruit
can be easily secured during June.
such as cherries and berries. and
there is likely to be some first-class
aprieots on the market before July
4 too. Many apples are in cold stor-
age and can be had at reasonable
figures. These, with sprays of half
grown fruit, will make excellent dis
ploys.
Patriotism for the United States Is
we'll shown by the display of banners,
patriotism for the Yakima valley
will be easily demonstrated by an ex-
hibition of fruits, its chief support
Displays made during the conven-
ton of the bankers and of the veter-
ans will be talked about over the
entire state, and North Yakima's idea
will be a valuable piece of advertis-
ing.

give glorious and fiery finish to the
program of the day.
Decorations for the entire event
will be very elaborate. The streets
will be gay with flags and bunting,
and an electric display is being ar
ranged.
A suggestion maze that two great
searchlights be secured from the
coast and be placed on the avenue has
met with approval, and il they can
be secured from the sound they will
form a feature in the evening, light
ing up the avenue from end to end.
The most notable feature of the
day will be in the fact that every
thing Is free. excepting the admission
to the grand stand at the ball
grounds. Visitors will be admitted
to the bleachers at the park for moth
ing. This is an idea seldom carried
out at Fourth celebration.
The merchants have secured the
use of the big garage at Yakima ave-
nue. and Fourth street, which will
seat fully 1900 people, aud this big
building will be open to the use OF
the public throughout the day.

CLOUDBURST
IN MCKEE
HEAVIEST RAINFALL FOR
YEAR IN YAKIMA VALLEY
Country Adjoining North Yakima
Given Drcnching Yesterday
Afternoon.

A cloudburst in the upper part of
the Mckee valley Monday afternoon,
the climax OF a big electrical and
rain storm. did considerable damage
b. flooding and breaking the i'm
mense Selah-Moxee canal at a point
near the Gano and I.inbarger ranches,
just below the artesian well belt
The principal flood damage was in
the washing out Of minor irrigation
bitches. the breaking of the big canal.
the damage to bridges and culverts
and the breaking down of considera-
BILE alfalfa.
For over year the Mckee has not
been visited by such heavy rain
storm as that of yesterday, when the
storm came unexpectedly. The clouds
assembled over the Mckee ridge about
| o'clock. and afte, an electrical dis
play seldom equaled in this section,
where such storms are rare. the rain
began to fall. 1t looked like a good
old fashioned eastern storm for
awhile. but without warning one of
the big clouds seemed to fairly drop
into the artesian district, and the dis
trict was flooded. Word was imme-
diate1y sent to the officials of the
canal and a gang of men sent to re-

in the section were badly washed any
many of the small bridges over roads
were washed out and roads flooded.
The big waste ditc. of the Selah-
Mckee canal cared for much of the

The rain did some damage to the
Union Gap Irrigation company canal
about 10 miles below North Yakima.
but the break was quickly fixed.
Reports from the Mckee, the
Sunnyside section. Pleasant Valley,
Ahtanum. Naches and Cowiche ind,-
cate that all the surrounding section
of North Yakima was given deluge
yesterday. Except in the Mckee lit
tie damage was done. and the ranch
ers in that section say that the dam
age TO the ditch and some crops is
easily compensated for by the i'm
mense benefit the rain was to the
section.
Officials of the Pleasant Valley r.
rigation company anticipate that the
flow Of water into the new reservoir
from the heavy rain will show that
there is an abundant water supply
even in the summer time and that
the company does not entirely have
to depend on the melting SHOWS for
water conservation.

FARM BUILDINGS BURNED
BY What Is Believed to Be incendisry
Fire At Maquoit, Brunswick.

Brunswick, Me. April 26.-(SpeciaD.
The farm buildings of James Wallace at
Maqucit were destroyed this afternoon
by what is believed to have been an in
cendiary fire. which started in the stable.
The house was occupied by the families
OF James and Jesse Wallace. fishermen,
who are now away from home on their
vessel. Their wives were at home, but
so far as they knew no one had been in
the stable today and the only manner in
which they can account for the fire is in
cendiarism.
There are but few neighbors in that sec
ton and no means of fighting fife, SO
nothing could be done toward saving any
of the buildings or their contents. Mrs.
Jesse Wallace was i'll with pneumonia
and was carried from the burning build
ing in her night clothes and removed to
the home of a neighbor, where she was
cared for. There is no clue to the one
who set the fire. The buildings were old
ones and small. The loss is about $1,000,
with insurance of 5000.
