EDMUND'S APPLES
|NL0NDON

The London Daily Telegraph of
Friday, November 10. refers in the
following language to the recent
shipment of Wenatchee valley apples
to England:
A consignment of specially fine
apples from the Wenatchee valley,
in the state of Washington, is at
tracing considerable attention at
Covent Garden Even in these days
OF perfect fruit the appearance and
quality of this arrival are so fine as
to merit special comment. Passers-
by in the Grand Row instinctively
stopped and gazed with obvious de-
light at the window of Mr. T. J.
POupart. where samples are exposed
for the benefit of trade buyers only,
those of the public desirous of tast-
ing this handsome fruit being COM
PEELED to purchase in the ordinary
way from retailers. There are sew
eral kinds in the parcel, including
Kings, Rome Beauties. Winesaps and
Jonathans, all of which are excel
lent, but the Spitzenberg and Winter
Banana varieties are so beautiful as
to pass for the work of an artist
The Spitzenberg is likewise delicious
ly favored, and is a worthy addition
to any collection of fruit

Good Play Last Night.

A packed house greeted 'Uncle
Dan'l'' at the Wenatchee theatre last
evening and expressed satisfaction by
frequent and enthusiastic applause.
The title role was impersonated by
Frank 0. Ireson, an actor of some
reputation who bears a striking re-
semblance to William j. Bryan, the
silver-tongued orator Of Nebraska.
The company supporting him was ac-
ceptable ana above the average, while
the scenery carried for the produc-
ton added much to its effectiveness.
The play is rural comedy drama
on the order of "Shore Acres" ''Sky
Farm" "Way Down East" and "The
Old Homestead" 1t is replete with
common-sense sayings, strong situa-
tions and ripping climaxes.
II the theatre going public could
always be sure of seeing as good d
play as the show last evening proved
to be, Wenatchee would give capacity
business to one or two attractions
each week. The present management
announces it as settled policy either
to have high grade amusements or
none at ALL

Effective December %, with the
permission of the interstate COM

The new rates reduce the carrier

TWO 0HO[DUPS
TURED
MEN WHO HELD UP YOUTH LAST
NIGHT SOON CAPTURED BY
OFFICERS HACSER AND KEN
YON.

Bold, bad holdups We're at WORK
in the city last night. The victim
was a boy and the scene of the hold
up was at the foot of Palouse street,
near the freight shed. Two men, one
with a gun, grabbed the boy and
went through him, taking from him
a $40 bill and some small change.
The boy was badly frightened and
did not report the occurrence to the
police, but instead told some of the
other boys and it in turn came to the
police officers. Night Officer Hauser
and Deputy Sheriff Kenyon got des-
cription of the bad men from the
boy and proceeded to locate them.
One of the men was found in the de-
pot and he inadvertently told that
his fellow in crime was trying to get
out on a freight train which was in
the yard. The officers went through
the freight train twice and finally To-
Gated the man snugly asleep in a
car of hay. He had a Smith-Wesson
revolver fully loaded but he was
asleep and when awakened offered
no resistance. The man was search
ed but the SO was not located on
him. The boy fully identified the
captured men as the ones who held
him up. They will be arraigned this
afternoon before Judge Palmer.
They are both tourists" and one is
a dago. Officer Kenyon says that he
thinks they are I. W. w. members
fleeing from Spokane
The holdup men give their names
as Jerome Pauline and Robert
Woods The youths name is Hutch
inson. He is a recent arrival here
and comes from Kansas. where his
parents live

bAPT|E IS WORLDS
BEST SKATER
BROTHER OF A. BAPTIE OF THIS
CITY NOW LIVES AT SEATTLE
WORLDS BEST SKATER.

Norval Baptie, a brother of A.
Baptie of the c. & o. Steamboat
company, is making his home in Sc
attic at the present time. He has
the reputation of being the world S
best skater and will leave in a short
time for the east to make a tour
of the eastern states. In fact he
makes skating a business The fol-
lowing from the Seattle Times will
be read with interest by friends of
Mr.. A. Baptie of this city:
This little touch of winter calls
to mind the fact that the champion
skater of the world now makes his
home in Seattle. His name is Nor
val Baptie and he has the printed
records to prove that he is bona
fide, blown-in-the-bo bottle cham
pion of the universe
"Baptie halls from Bathgate, \.
D., and began skating for prizes
when he was 1 5 years old He has
been following the game for 20 years
and he IS now at the top of the heap.
In 1898 he beat John S. Johnson, a
champion in his time, and the next
year he beat John Nilsson That
same year he lowered the indoor rec
ord for quarter of mile to 2S 1-5
seconds. He skated the half mile in
one minute and two-fifths of a sec
ond and made the mile in two min
utes and eight seconds. All these
records were made with flying starts
These records were made December
% and 90 at Lake Minnetonka
Mimi.
February 4, 1905, he won the
championship of the world at Mont
real by defeating Harvey Davidson
John Nilsson and Peter Sinnirud in
a match race in which the title was
at stake.
"Ordinarily a man has as much
use for a pair of ice skates in Seat.
tie as George Cotterill has for Tom
and Jerry, but this little freeze has
converted the overflow from the Du.
vanish river into one of the finest
skating surfaces to be found any.
where Mr.. Baptie says there is
about 40 acres of as fine ice near
Georgetown as he has seen anywhere
and he has been down there practic.
ing few stunts and some bursts ot
speed for the last few days.

S14,5OO
DAMAGES FIXED FOR RAISING
THE LEVEL OF LAKE CHELAN
POWER DAM.

Olympia, Wash, Dec. S.-The
Great Northern's Chelan Electric
company today paid the state $14,-
500 that being the amount fixed by
the state land board today for the
perpetual right to overflow state
shore lands on Lake Chelan in con-
nection with the company's power
development plans.
President Rockwell of the tax
tax commission, member of the
board, says that under the law the
company is given the right to build
the dam, and that the only concern
of the board is that the state is COM
pensated for any overflow damages.
He rather indicates the damage will
be light as the board is of. the opin-
ion a plan to keep the surface of the
land about a uniform level will be a
benefit rather than an injury to the
shore lands. But as the dam will
permanently cause the overflow of
about 115 acres of valley lands
which might have been diked and
reclaimed. the board will probably
force the Hill interests to pay the
full value of such lands. The pro-
posed dam is part of the plan of the
Great Northern to install an enor-
nous water power plant on the out
let of the land, to develop electric
power to operate the entire Cascade
division of that railway

erect a building 24x28 This will
