PESHASI|N

Miss Bessie Bell Powers, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. j. Sherman. and
Mr.. Edmund Page were married at
high noon on Sunday, September 20,
1908, in the presence of the imme-
date relatives of the contracting par
ties and few invited guests, Rev. L.
A. Cans officiating.
The rooms were very tastefully
decorated with ferns, flowers and
Oregon grape, the color scheme be-
ing green and white in the living
room and green and gold in the din
ing room. A pretty bower of ferns
and white asters were artistically a.
ranged, in front of which the bridal
couple stood during the pretty aud
impressive ceremony which united
them for life.
The bride was charmingly gowned
in white Persian lawn and Valen-
ciennes lace and carried white earna-
tions. The groom wore the conven-
tiona1 black.
Immediately after the ceremony
the guests partook of very sumptu-
Gus dinner, after which the time was
pleasantly spent in social chat and
music.
They young people will go to
housekeeping at once, and later will
leave for an extended trip to Spo-
kane and eastern points.

THE FRUIT
trEss ST $50 at
DEADLOCK
VERY FEW APPLES YET SOLD
GROWERS HOLD FOR HIGHER
PRICES.-SOME BUYERS HAVE
POOL OF THEIR OWN.

The fruit market is at standstill.
The association several days ago re-
ceived bid on 165 cars of fruit
They have turned down the bid. A
number of buyers for eastern and
Sound firms are in the valley and
succeed in picking up a little fruit
here and there, but only small part
of the apple crop has yet been sold.
The growers are holding out for
higher prices. Most of them are in
condition so that they do not have to
sell until they get ready.
The buyers on the other hand
want cheaper rate than they paid
last year. Said one buyer: Some OF
us got stung last year, and we are
not going to crowd things so hard
this year
1t is alleged that the buyers now
in the yaelly have combined in an
endeavor to force down prices. 'If
the growers pool with their stuff,
why should not the buyers have the
same right" said one today.
I'VE can't stand it much longer
said another buyer. Someone must
make a break and commence buy
ing" Meantime, the growers are
picking and packing their fruit, and
efforts are being made to establish
some new outside markets.

MINER HERO
N TOWN
;. c. COLLIN, WHO RESCUED
DOLLY FOOTE IN SEATTLE Is
HERE FOR A FEW DAYS.

8. C. Collin, the Alaska miner who
risked his life last week In Seattle
to save a drowning woman is in We.
natchee today. The young woman
had attempted suicide, ana in the
presence of a crowd on the wharf
leaped into the bay.
The husband of the woman is now
at Moses Coulee where he is engaged
in survey work for the Great North
ern. His wife came over yesterday
from Seattle, and Collins ordered
that team be placed at her disposal
to take her to her husband at the
Coulee.
The story Of the rescue is given In
the Times of last Thursday. It says:
Discovered as she was sinking for
the last time in the depths of the
Sound, Dolly Foote, twenty years old,
a former resident of Fernie, B. c.,
who this afternoon flung herself into
the hay from pier at the foot of
Battery street, was heroically res
cued from drowning by s. C. Collins,
an Alaska miner
Collins heard cry as he was pass
ing along the tracks, but at first paid
little attention to it. Later, he heard
another, and this time ran to the
end of the pier to see young girl
struggling in the waters of the
Sound. Divesting himself of his
coat, hat and collar, the Alaskan
plunged into the cold waters and
was soon at the girls side, grasping
her around the neck as she was 60
ing down for the last time.
The girl scratched, kicked AMI
fought like demon, as if resolute in
her purpose to end her existence.
The miner, with the tenacity of q
bulldog, held to the girl, the while
calling for help. He cried out to a
man in a passing launch, but the
launchman laughed and paid no fur
Their attention.
A person on the shore, however.
seeing the struggling pair, rowed out
to them. Throwing rope to Col
Inns, the latter fastened it around
the body of the girl and then swan
for the rowboat. . Reaching it, he
aided in hauling the now seemingly
! lifeless body of the young woman to
the boat. Patrolman r. Olmstead,
who saw the heroic rescue by the
Alaskan, called the patrol wagon and
had the two taken to the police sta
ton. at the station the girl said
she formerly lived at Fernie, but
was driven out by the recent fire.
She says she drank a glass of wine
and could remember nothing after
wards

RAILROAD CAMPS

Columbia Siding, on the river,
where flows the Columbia by the
sand bars and walls OF rock, where
formerly the traveller, rushing by on
the Great Northern trains casually
looked out to remark that it was mo
good,' has suddenly been converted
into a bustling, active community.
Activity and enterprise are all about.
Men are being rushed there, material
and supplies are being unloaded,
side-tracks are being laid and filled
with loaded cars as fast as ready-all
preparatory to building the railroad
into the Waterville country by way of
Moses Coulee and Douglas creek.
Several camps are being establish
ed in Moses Coulee. One will be near
the tunnel where the road leaves the
Coulee to enter Douglas creek. There
is one established about one and a
half miles west Of the mouth of
Slack canyon on Douglas creek. Fred
Hare has the contract for hauling the
lumber for it, some two or three car
loads.
Provisions in the way of vegetables
are scarce, and some of the contrac-
tors have made orders with Spokane
parties for potatoes and vegetables.
The SwaIbocker Bros of Seattle have
a contract for three carloads of pro-
visions.
Parties who have gone down from
here to get work, were told that in a
weeks time they will be ready to be-
gin moving dirt. One party, who
went to Columbia Siding to see about
getting work with team, was told to
return in a week or ten days, when
he could have work. They were then
busy establishing camps.-Waterville

GOOD ROADS
DISCUSSION
FRED Nj. BERRY BELIEVES A MA.
GALVANIZED ROAD FROM COL
UMBIA BRIDGE TO LEAVEN.
WORTH Is THE PROPER sOLU-
TION.
Letter No. 2.

A good road is easily recognized in
driving over it, yet the conditions
necessary for road to be good one
are not generally understood.
In order that road may be salts
factory for public travel it should be
dry, solid, of easy grade and smooth.
In Chelan county, the first condi-
ton comes naturally, as there is not
enough moisture to affect good
road once we'll made.
The second condition: good road
must be solid. The material of which
a roadway is constructed should he
such that it can be thorouhly COM
pacted so as to sustain the travel on
firm unyielding surface and without
the formation of ruts.
The third condition: a good road
must have easy grades. A road may
be otherwise good and still be of COM
paratively little value as public
highway by reason of its steep grades.
Such grades limit not only the loads
that can be hauled over the road but
|also the speed of travel. In almost
|every case steep grades can be avoid
ed by judicious location of the road
The fourth condition: roads may
be dry and solid and have easy grades
and still be quite unsatisfactory be-
cause of their roughness. The rough
ness may be due to uneven places in
the surface or merely to loose stones
lying in the roadway. Whatever the
cause it is very undesirable co2.li-
ton, although it is not uncommon;
there is no reason for it except negli-
gence.
After the proper location of a road
the most important condition is yet to
be fulfilled.
A good road must be solid.
Good country roads may be classified
as follows: Broken stone roads, gra-
vel roads and earth roads.
Broken stone roads Cor macadam)
are the best and naturally the most
costly. The cost of constructing ma
cadam roads will generally be from
two to five thousand dollars mile.
The varieties of rock most suitable
for macadam are trap, syenite, gran
tie, ebert, limestone, micaschist AMI
quartz. At least three of these can
be found in this vicinity.
A good macadamized road from the
Columbia Bridge to Leavenworth
with graveled roads up the principal
creek valleys and canyons as feeders
would be an ideal solution of the
road problem in the Wenatchee Val
ley.
A system of permanent bridges
have recently been built by the coun-
| ty with the idea in view of a Wenat-
chez to Leavenworth route The
next step will be the best location fer
roads to connect these bridges; then
the improvement of these roads.
The same idea could be carried ont
on smaller scale as regards the En-
tiat Valley The road from Chelan
Falls to Chelan should be made one
OF the best in the county. A main
highway from Wenatchee to Ellens-
burg via the Columbia-C olockum
route would be of general benefit.
There is much to be said and more
to be done as regards good roads in
this county.

ECCENTRIC HOGARTH.
Incidents In the Life of the Vain and
Able Artist.

HOgarth, one of the ablest and GER
tainly one of the vainest artists that
England has produced. was as a paint
er hardly recognized in his lifetime, TO
his bitter grief and disappointment
He made money out of his prints, but
could only sell his pictures with diff
Guilty and at low prices
Yet Whistler once declared that Ho-
garth was our greatest painter. He
painted some admirable portraits, but
his manner was too independent and
his tongue too sharp for success in a
profession that requires certain
amount of diplomacy and much pa
thence.
He resented any criticism of his
work, and there is a story Of a very
ugly peer whom he painted that illus
trates this. The portrait was returned
to the artist. 1t was, in fact, too good
a likeness
But Hogarth declined to alter it in
the least and told his sitter that unless
the portrait was paid for in three days
he would add a tail to the figure and
sell it to wild beast Snowman TO
peer paid the money and instantly de-
stroyed the picture.
More curious still is a story of Ho-
garth's absence of mind. When the
sale of his prints had made him pros
porous, he set up Il carriage and one
day went In it to visit the lord mayor.
While he was in the Mansion House
the weather became stormy, and Ho-
garth who happened 10 go out at a
different door, after vainly searching
for a hackney coach. walked home
through the rain and was soaked TO
the skin. He had entirely forgotten his
carriage.-MOdern Society.
