The usual method Of suspending to-
bacco In the curing shed or drying
house is 10 string the leaves on twine.
The objection to this method is that the
twine will sag in the center so that the
leaves hanging upon it will slide toward
center and running together cause
GOOD deal of damage to the tobacco.
10 overcome this difficulty the tobacco
hanger shown in the accompanying en-
graVin0 has been invented. It consists
of a pair of laths laid parallel to each
other and spaced apart at the enc ana

Over the top of the hanger thus formed

LIEN ON \ WELL.
Creates Considerable Discussion As
to the Merits of the Evidence
to BE Introduced.

Causing a lien to be placed on a
we'll is a new venture, it appears,
from the interest taken in the case
recently filed in the county clerk 5
office. lust what the contestants
will do with the hole in the ground
is the question.
s. P. Flower and company fur
nished the well casing and pump,
while J. T. Burlington and son dug
the we'll and put it in service Neither
one has received the pay due them
and have caused liens TO be placed
against the well.
Flower and company claim $3.50
with interest at 6 per cent since De-
cember 3 1907, and Burlington and
son say they are entitled to $675.59
with like interest Both firms have
joined forces in the action, and be-
side asking for judgment request that
the defendant be ordered 10 pay SIS
attorney fees.
The we'll is on the property of Mr..
and Mrs VIM. Yeackel, which is de-
scribed as the northwest quarter of
section IA, township Z, range % Z,
W. NJ.
In some states in the union a man
can give deed to an artesian well,
even though the we'll is located on
another's property. 1t is considered
separate piece OF property and in
selling he is to give a separate deed
for the we'll.

ASSASSIN BUSY.
Manager of Mine Hurled TO Ceiling
But Escapes With Few
Scratches.

TELLURIDE, March 2S Eluding
a night guard stationed at the Snug
gler Union mine at Pandora TWO
miles south of Telluride, and the
searchlight which is constantly
being thrown about the premises
during the night from the high tower
Of the mill as precautionary meas
ure. an unknown person gained ac-
cess to the residence Of Gen. Bulkley
Wells, general manager Of the Snug
gler Union company. last night and
planted dynamite under his bed.
The dynamite was exploded by 4
light fuse on the outside of the
building about clock this morn
ing, when the intended victim was
asleep He was hurled against the
ceiling and alighted under a mass Of
debris, but escaped with some
scratches and bruises and impaired
hearing.
Although a systematic search has
been made by Sheriff Fitzpatrick and
deputies, aided by hundreds of citi-
zens. no clue has been found to the
perpetrator of the deed. One man,
charged with having said that Wells
would be killed, is held under sus-
picion.
In the same building where an at
tempt to kill Wells was made six
years ago Arthur l.. Collins, Wells
predecessor, was assassinated while
playing a game of cards. The man
who murdered Collins fired heavy
load of buckshot through the window
into his back.
Steve Adams, Orchards alleged ac-
complete in the Steunenberg murder,
now in Jail at Telluride, will soon be
placed on trial for Collins murder,
Wells is chiefly responsible for hav-
ing Adams brought back to Colorado
on this charge.

HAS SISTER HERE.
Man Thrown In Bay at Seattle Had
Visited Here Just Before the
Murder Occurred.

William Henry Kinney, who was
recently assaulted by an unknown
thug in Seattle, has been confounded
with some man who was thrown into
the bay The latter party has reeov-
cred and is now able to be around.
Mr.. Kinney was attacked near Reu-
ton way, where the city is filling N
the depression, by a young man not
over 81 years of age, whom 1t is pre-
sumed offered to show Mr.. Kinney
the way to the home of his sister.

Mr.. Kinney went to Seattle, where he
had not been for % years, to visit his
favorite sister. Mrs. Crane. Mrs.
Crane resides at Youngstown, and as
Mr.. Kinney arrived late in the even
ing it is thought that the excitement
of being so near to her proved too
much for him and he accepted the in
vitation of the stranger,
| After the assault Kinney told the
thug to take his money and valuables
but not to kin him, and then hand
ed them to the man. Four days later
he regained his senses in the hos
pital and Mrs. Crane was notified. He
was Immediately removed to her
home and later taken to another hos

arrival.

Believe Rose Land Company's Well
Will Lead to the Promised
Land.

The success Of the Rose Land
company in reaching artesian water
in North Yakima is attracting a great
deal of attention from the people OF
the lower Yakima valley. If It is
demonstrated that the new well at
Yakima is a success it means prae-
tically new supply for the arid
regions along the Yakima river the
entire distance from Yakima to the
Columbia river.
A ditch with its lntakt as high as
the North Yakima townsite would
cover land 200 feet higher than the
present Sunnyside canal and would
mean the reclamation OF over 1907
600 acres of land which already has
been demonstrated TO be fine fruit

BLAMES THE BOOZE.
President Jordan Issues "A Statement
Bearing On the Issues at the
University.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY. March
27-The most important develop
ment today in the student situation
was the issuance of a statement by
President Jordan in which he de-
clares the parade was an organized
revolt against the authority of the
university. He upholds the action
of the committee, which he says no
protest can change. Jordan's state
ment follows:
1.-The present difficulty has had its
origin in the effort of university au-
thorities, trustees and faculty to rid
the institution of the burden and
disgrace of student drunkenness.
The student affairs committee is a
regularly constituted disciplinary
committee. having charge of these
matters. and its actions are in ac-
cordance with definite instructions
from the academic council. The
demonstration of March 16 was an
organized expression of revolt, pri-
marily against the committee but
actually against the university itself.
1t was necessary that the offense
should be met squarely and definite
ly. This the committee has done,
and the university will continue to
carry out its policy without reference
to opposition or protest 1t is a mat
ter of regret that so many fine young
men have been drawn into this mat
ter by false idea of college spirit. !"

NEED OF CITY PARK.
Declares That Closed Town Makes
Present Need of Park An
Imperative One.

i all uOW, anu LOT lOHS tlnle
have been of the opinion that the city
of North Yakima should purchase
and own a public park. have here
tofore said little upon the subject,
for the reason that some time ago
offered the city a 40-acre tract in
the Naches gap, facing Picture Rocks,
and feared anything l would say IN
behalf of park would be construed
as an effort on my part to induce
the city to purchase the 40 acres
from me-, said Attorney yestal
Snyder yesterday.
"Since offering this land to the
city for park purposes | have sold
same to private parties for the same
price offered to take for it from the
city and now feel at liberty to speak
upon the subject.
"The necessity for a pleasure
ground was brought forcibly home
last Sunday. All private places of
amusement were closed. The barren
hills about town were covered with
people; the railway track from the
bridge north of town, south nearly
to Old Town, were lined with pedes-
trians, while everyone who owned a
vehicle or was able to hire one was
out riding or driving aimlessly about.
If the town remains closed on Sun
day, and / presume IT will, as the
weather becomes finer, the necessity
for park will be more imperative.
There are many people in this city,
as in every city. who can not afford
to hire livery rig or automobile, but
who do desire and need an outing at
least once a week fully as bad and
in nearly every case need an outing
worse than those who are able to
do so.
"The subject was brought to mind
again by reading Mr.. A. E. Larson's
interview upon his return from Cali
fornia. He suggested the purchase
Ol park near IdiHtcu ANoeho' .hiS
being the identical site l had offered
the city, of which Mr.. Larsen had no
knowledge.
This tract faces and takes in part
of the Painted Rocks and is bounded
on the north by the river, Is well
wooded, has two or three brooks and
lagoons traversing it; has the Valley
railway company line running across
one corner OF it, and in my opinion
is the only available park site left
to this city. 1t is only about three
and one-half miles from town, easily
accessible by the railway, which I
presume would charge 1O-cent
fare, a pleasant ride for teams and
automobiles and would make us as
nice a park and as close In as any
of the cities the state has.
II offered this land to the city for
$4,000 and sold it to private party
al the same figure. ] think 1t would
be very wise for the city to ascertain
what the land could now be pur-
chased for and to purchase the same
from the present owners, If 1t can be
obtained for a reasonable figure.
Some have suggested that what
the city needs is a small park close
to the business center, while small
inside park would be, OF course. val
liable it unquestionably would at the
present time cost an enormous
amount of money and would not
when procured furnish the people
with any special change from what
they have every day, or what they
could obtain in their own door yards
