Entertain Young People.

Forty-two Wenatchee young people
were entertained in royal manner
at the DR.. Cameron residence, on
Washington and Palouse street, last
night. Mrs. w. P. Cameron and Miss
Nan Lawrence were the hostesses of
the occasion. The event was a Wash
ington birthday party and everything
in the way of decorations was in
keeping with the occasion. The flag
was much in evidence, as was also
the cherry. Martha Washington cos
tunes were worn by the young la
dies. Give Hundred" was played
until IL o'clock, when DR.. Cameron
and Dave Gellatly proceeded to weigh
each one present before eating lunch.
The light ones" were paired off with
the "heavyweights' of the opposite
sex and vice versa. During the eve
ming the hostesses were assisted by
Miss Grimshaw.
Those present were Misses Pres
ton, Vaughn, Hines, Stevens, Whit
son, Preece, Merriam, Mahoney, Aus
tin, Mccoy, Crowl, McCutcheon,
Grimshaw, Wilson, Frisbie, Mcneil,
Conway, Mesdames Sumner, Gilman,
Sullivan and Preece, and Messrs.
Boehmer, Preece, Gilman, Sumner,
Aiken, Mccoy, Crowl, Grimshaw,
Wilson, Stearns, Fuller, Hutchinson,

was firing. AT this stage Johnson
turned to the crowd, and, addressing
the people, said: II thought Tommy
was an infighter." He then turned
to Burns again and placed more ter.
rife blows over his ribs and his right
eye. Again for second or two John
son took matters very quietly. but
when the opportunity presented it,
self the colored man swung his eft
on to Burns ribs, dropping him
The huge enjoyment that Johnson
got out of the battle may be CLEANED
from the fact that he undertook to
show Burns tricks in the ninth round.
AS Johnson came up he remarked
to Burns: Come on, Tommy; swing
your right" Burns made no effort to
lead, while Johnson shot a straight
left. which caught the champion flush
in the face, but the same hand
swung underneath and was neatly
blocked.
They got locked together again
Immediately after Johnson remark
ing, Il will teach you something,
Tommy. Whilst still close together
Johnson brought his right up fiercely,
the blow just grazing Burns chin.
A second effort resulted similarly,
the blacks fist crossing Burns chin
and shooting high up over his head.
Burns swung his right to Johnson's
head, at the same time making some
inaudible remark.

found to have special adaptability te
the African climate and are being
trained for army service.
In this country an experiment In the
same direction which has been watched
with interest is being conducted at
the governments experimental station
at Washington. DR.. Schroeder, the
scientist in charge Of the station, i'm
ported an ordinary burro mare from
Texas and crossed her with the zebra
sent to President Roosevelt from north
Africa. The president turned the ami
NAL over to the experiment station.
Now there is colt. and the little zebra
has some singular characteristics. The
marking. Of its zebra father Is re-
tanned in the legs. which are perfectly
striped. but from the legs up the re-
semblance to it's mother Is more pro-
nounced. While the hair is longer and
coarser than a pure zebra's, 1t Is also

 Secretary Nagel of the department of commerce and labor issued a statement bearing on his controversy with Director North of the news bureau, in which he said that If he was to be held responsible for MT. North's bureau he must have authority over it.
 A newspaper man has been appointed a member of the civil service commis- sion, President Taft having named James T. Williams, Jr., of South Carolina, to succeed Henry F. Greene.

 It was learned that the Senate finance committee has decided to change the au- tomatic operation of the maximum and minimum feature of the tariff bill so that the maximum rate of duty would only be applied by proclamation of the Pres ident.
