The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1908-07-10

We regret that a stenographic report
was not taken so that we might pub
lish it in full
The races and ball game took place
in a beautiful grove near the lcicle
river, south OF town. The location is
an ideal one for a park, but was too
far from town and the means of con-
veyance totally inadequate. 1t was
unfortunate, too, that more seats were
not provided, but the short time allowed
TO make half mile track and clear the
ball ground made further improvement
we'll nigh impossible. 1t can not be
denied, though, that the location is
altogether too far from town unless
there is a street car line to transfer the
crowds back and forth. This fact
caused some dissatisfaction with those
who wanted to see the horse races and
the ball game, and is cause for univer-
sal regret on the part of the committee
that had the celebration in charge.
Still it could not be helped. The only
way it could have been. avoided would
have been to have to cut these features
out entirely.
The races were won by horses from
Chelan, belonging TO Indians. The
names OF the winners we did not
obtain.
The ball game between Wenatchee
and Leavenworth was won in score OF
to by the Leavenworth boys. The
last half Of the ninth inning belonged
to our boys but was not played, as it
was late and could only have increased
the score OF the Leavenworth team but
not alter the result Of the game.
1t would be manifestly unfair to close
the account of the celebration without
mentioning the Wenatchee Military
band, one OF the best in the northwest,
under the management of its leader
and instructor, Mr.. Louis Crollard.
Although a young man, Mr.. Crollard
ranks among the most able and ac-
comphshed band masters in the coun-
try. If we should repeat half the
complimentary remarks we heard on
the music made by the Wenatche band
they would blush individually and col
lectiyely.

MAN CHFWED UP BY BEAR
Tony NeV, a Sheep Fierder, Almost Killed
By an Angry Bear

Up to last Friday Tony New, and
his brother, were tending a flock of
sheep belonging to a man by the name
of Hendricks, Of Kahlotus, Wash.
Tony and lis brother came from
Portugal.
From such information as we are
able to obtain bear and two cubs got
into the flock of sheep and Tony shot
at the old mother bear, wounding her.
The wounded bear at once attacked
him, knocking him to the earth and
biting and striking him. His brother
came to the rescue and the old bear
left him, presumably to look after her
cubs, which were killed in the bear
fight. The scene Of the fight was near
Saddle mountain, on the Entiat river,
about 26 miles north of here. New was
brought to this place last Saturday and
his wounds dressed by Dr.. Hoxsey.
His chin was bit of, or rather the skin
was all gone, both eyes were fearfully
lacerated, and for a time it was thought
he would lose the sight Of both eyes
but at present it is thought he will
have the sight OF one eye restored.
Just above the eyes the skull was
crushed in and in two places on the
back part Of his head the skull was
fractured. He had marks Of the infu-
rated animals teeth all over his body
and one leg was badly chewed up and
lacerated.
The doctor says he has heard of men
being in bear fights but this man
looked, when he was brought to the
hospital, like a man who had fought a
den of bears.
The man says he considers himself
fortunate to escape with his life. Strange
to relate the injury was all done in less
than a half minute.

Scent The Fourth On Wenatchee Lake.

A jolly crowd Of Leayenworth peo-
pie spent the Fourth up at Lake We
natchee. Fishing, boating and noun
tain climbing. One of the party gave
US the information that keg of beer
was on hand when they got there but
positively asserts that this contribution
was supplied by mine host Bates of
the Lake view hotel, and was intended
for the lake celebration. The party
that went from here was composed oi
Mr.. and Mrs. D. R. McCambley, Mr..
and Mrs w. o. Atwood, Mr.. and Mrs.
Jack Ruth, Miss Sadie Skirving, S. A.
Burce, H. H. Banks and L. H.
Hartman. A quantity of fire works
was taken from here and the Fourth
duly celebrated in the customary style.
Mr. Burce was the hero of the occasion
or, if he was not, he would have been
had the occasion presented itself.
While they were boating he promised
without mental reservation if the boat
turned over to save everybody even il
he had to lose his own life in the act.

LOCAL COTTON RECEIPTS
OVER 1900 GALES HAVE BEEN
MARKETED IN ARDMoRE
so FAR THIS SEASON.

The Ardmore cotton receipts will
fall but little short of those of last
season and may perhaps be as large,
If not larger, than the receipts OF
last season.
The receipts so far this season
number 1855 bales up to and in
Guiding the receipts Friday. The av-
erage number Of bales received on
the ma kct during the past week,
amounts to about 100 bales per day
or more.
The estimated number Of bales TO
be marketed this season will be
about $4,000 as against about the
same number last year. The receipts
by yards in this city are as fol
lows:

ly $500, making "a total number Of
1885.
The decrease in the usual number
Of bales that are received in Ard
more is due to the short cotton crop
which was due to the freeze in the
early part OF November of the pres.
ent year.
The grade of the crop that is be-
ing marketed at present is far be-
low the standard grade of cotton
raised in this section, due to the
ext emely bad weather that the crop
has gone through.
