CONTRACT ON FINE ORCHARD
TRACT BELOW MAI1AGA-10O

of in small tracts. Several years be-
fore his death Mr.. Reed had
his place all plated and had made
arrangements that 1t should be sold
off in five and ten acre tracts. His
death has delayed the plans for the
place. Today j. H. Richardson, well
known here on account of his con-
nection with the Malaga Land COM
pany, secured control of the Reed
place and arrangements are being
made to put it on the market at
once
The Reed place consists of 100
acres, 35 acres of which is in bear
ing and it is all choice commercial
fruit. 1t is watered from the Lake
Irrigation company ditch, a ditch
which Mr.. Reed assisted in building
The Reed place was settled on over
20 years ago, when Mr.. Reed first
came into the country from Ellens-
burg. 1t has always been considered
one of the choice places of the val
ley and-it will make homes for quite
little colony of people. The Reed
orchard has a large crop on it this
year There are GA pear trees from
which S25 boxes of pears were
picked These sold for $1.25 per box.
This is sample of the way the old
orchard has borne for a great many
years Mr.. Richardson went to Seat
tie today and expects to return Mon
day and Immediately this place will
be thrown on the market and it is
safe to say that it will be eagerly
sought for.

EXCEPT FANCY FRUITSTAND
STOCK.

Finds Paris Tame as Compared With
City of New York.

Washington, Oct 22.-CharIes E.
Magoon. former provisional governor
of Cuba, who is home from Europe,
found Paris distressingly tame. 1t is
dull. he thinks, compared with New
York.
"The night life of Paris is that of
a remote village compared with the
night life of New York" said he. "By
midnight the Place de fOpera and
Rue de la Paix are completely de-
serted and as quiet as a graveyard
Why, the doors of my hotel were
closed at IL o'clock. If you look for
the Broadway night to be eclipsed in
Paris you are doomed to get disap-
pointment"
Mr.. Magoon found Montmartre at
night as tame and uneventful as An
napolis, and came away from the
capital convinced that the French,
even in Paris. are much more given
to the simple life than is generally
supposed.
Rumor is persistent here that Mr..
Magoon, who cut short his vacation In
Europe, has been or will be asked to
accept the post of minister to China
in place of Mr.. Crane

TROUb[ES0F HUR[-
bURTS over
BRIDE, AFTER DAYS OF DOUBT.
JOINED HER HUSBAND LAST
NIGHT AND THEY LEFT FOR
BIG BEND THIS MORNING.

Mrs. L. c. Hurlburt, the bride of
last Saturday night, who for the past
few days has hesitated on taking up
her wifely duties with her husband,
was reconciled to her new life yes
terday and about o'clock yesterday
afternoon joined her husband. They
came down town and registered at
the Chewawa hotel. This morning,
in Mr.. Hurlburt's automobile, they
left for the Big Bend, where the hus-
band is large property owner. Mr..
Hurlburt has made a large NUMBER
of friends since he came to the city
week ago. He has borne his trou-
bles in a dignified manner and has
won the esteem of the parents and
grandparents of his wife.
M. Basore, the grandfather of Mrs.
Hurlburt. thinks the family have
been put in an unfavorable light in
this difficulty. He states that none
of the family are Catholics, as was
first published, nor have they serious
ly opposed the marriage Of the young
lady. In a written statement today
Mr.. Basore says:
Editor Daily World: I am very
sorry to have to be rushed into print
in order to clear my wife and myself,
grandparents, of what you term the
disappearance of the bride. Never
theless, through the ignorance of
some people sometimes we have to
defend ourselves. First, I will say
the lady was not secluded at home
at all, but was in Seattle and her
father and sister arrived in Wenat-
chez with her on October 10, on the
morning train. at 5:07. Secondly,
that her grandparents were neither
directly nor indirectly opposed to
the marriage as they as we'll as her
parents knew nothing of the man or
the arrangements and it Is certainly
ignorance that caused people to sur
mise that any of her relatives had
any other plans for her. Her par
ents and grandparents had nothing
to do in making the match, therefore
feel that the attack upon us, grand
parents. by people is unjustifiable
and l have done all l could to bring
about reconciliation"

HYATT RUSHING To
WEDDING
FORMER NORTHWESTERN SLUG
GER LOSES TRAIN AND FEARS
HE WILL BE LATE TO HIS OWN
WEDDING.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. 22.-In a race
against time, Hamilton Hyatt, extra
outfielder of the worlds champion
Pirates, is rushing clear across the
continent with Victoria, B. c., as his
goal and blushing bride as the
prize.
Hamilton has been planning for
some time to forsake the lonely es-
tate of bachelorhood and join the
ranks of the benedicts. The wedding
date was set for next Monday morn
ing. Hyatt, figuring that that would
give him just time enough to rush
home after the final game of the
worlds championship series was
played.
But Hamilton was reckoning with
out the fans of Pittsburg. He plan
ned to make his getaway at 9:45
last night. but the great reception
rendered to the Pirates lasted longer
than he had calculated. OF course he
could not break away before he had
been handed his check by Congress
man James Francis Burke. AS soon
as the precious piece of paper had
been given to him he made a wild
dash for the union station in a taxi
cab. He was dumbfounded when he
arrived there to be informed that his
train had left Is minutes before he
landed in the station.
'I'm Hamilton Hyatt"
Cant you call it back?" asked
Hamilton. I'm Hamilton Hyatt, of
the Pirates, and I have a date to De
married at Victoria, B. c., next Mon
day morning. Gee, If l don't make
that train I'll be 20 minutes late for
the ceremony"
Hams plea gained him nothing,
and he sat down in the waiting room
to put in three weary hours before
he could get another train. He left
at midnight on fast train, and he
is hoping against hope that he can
make up enough time to land him at
the brides home in time for the most
important event of his life.
Don't worry, Ham," said one of
his teammates last night, as he fig
geted and rushed on the platform at
Forbefield while waiting the calling
of his name.
ooh, that's all right" responded
Ham. "You don't care about it, of
course, because you're married; but
remember this is the only girl I've
got and don't want to lose her. IN
spend my whole 81, 500 worlds series
money, If necessary, for a special on
the last stretch If I find I can't make
1t in time"
The best wishes of all of Hyatt's
teammates are following the big fell
low across the continent. and the
Pirates are hoping that he will make
the home run safely, and not get put
out at the plate.
After their marriage Mr.. and Mrs.
Hyatt will reside at Shelton, Wash.
It is said that the bride-to-be Is an
accomplished young woman and one
of the bellies of Victoria.
