II was evident that the woman was
not the mother Of the little boy, but
she seemed to think great deal OF
him and cried when sne had to leave
him. Miss Kuehnel believed that the
woman was the boys grandmother.

/. Minneapolis, Aug. So-The Great
Northern railroad is planning to oper-

and Seattle on q running time that
win annihilate all past records for
speed and cut eight hours from the
time now made by the Oriental Linn
dted. It will consist OF three mail and
two express cars. The installation OF
the new train win mark new fea-
ture in the Hill Hartman rivalry for
the passenger business to the Pacific

shall leave Chicago over the Burling-
ton, touch only at few places for
necessary stops and from the hour Of
departure from Chicago at 1880 p M.

reason to believe, 1t is said. that there
would be no show OF competition from

are so many advantages offered by IL
that IT was decided to investigate.
Available power was one Of the Inn
portant features to consider. The
Wenatchee river In the Tumwater
canyon, Chelan county, was found to
be the most adaptable for the pur-
pose. A 600-foot dam was built dag
onally across the stream, and the I'M
pounded waters led by means Of an
$4,000 foot pipe line to the power house.
Three 1000 horse power turbine-driven
generating units were installed.
The generators produce three phase
alternating currents at a pressure Of
{, 900 volts, which is transferred by
means of an overhead wire from the
power house to the railroad. thirty
miles distant.
Biggest Ever Built.
The four electric locomotives are said
to be the biggest Of their kind ever
built. They are of the double track
type, with an ver-all length of for
ty-five feet, but the rigid wheel base
is only eleven feet, so that the en-
gines can take the sharpest curve on
the division without difficulty.
The total weight OF each locomo-
tive is 115 tons, carried entirely on
four drivers. to get the maximum
tractive power. The drivers are 60
inches in diameter. There are four
three-phase motors on each locomotive,
two on each truck. Each motor is
connected to one of the driving axles
by means of spur gears with gear
ratio OF 1 to 4.2S.
"A comparison Of the performance OF
the electric locomotive and the NAL
let compound locomotive is inter-
esting Against load of 1900

rate of about eight miles an hour the
115-ton three phase electrics can haul
on the same grade 1900 tons at a speed
of fifteen miles an hour. This means
that the hourly useful ton mileage
possible with the electric locomotive
Is 40 per cent greater than with the
steam locomotives, and at the same
time the dead ton mileage in electric
service is less than one-half that re-

At the annual school election, held
at the school house Saturday after
noon, B. w. Reeves was elected a
trustee for the one-year term, A. p.
Rouse for two years, and D. w. Va
den for three years. A special school
tax of 15-mills was voted for the car
rying on of school for the coming
year.
Richfield should have enough mon
ey to carry on n of the best
schools in the county, and there Is
enough ability in the new board 10
do their part in bringing this about.
A good school is one of the most i'm
portant points to cover in any town,
new or old, and Richield is going to
have the very best there is.
1t is probable that a large school
building will be needed to care for
the children by next fall, though
there is no announcement as yet of
any such move.

incorporation.

How many people are required to
make a good" town?
An admirer once saih of a certain
American college president, that a
boy at one of a log and DR.. Eliot at
the other, constituted a college; for
the genial, scholarly teacher was a
whole college, himself, lacking only
the pupils.
But Richield, a good town, has
more than that. Some of the men
here are as good as the very best
anywhere; and there are so many of
them that a census might surprise
even the local residents who have
been here from the start of the town.
When the t~ownspeople petitioned
the county commissioners for incor-
poration, there were 221 persons re-
corded as residents here, as show
by the following list. AS the incor-
poration has just been allowed, and
as this is the first paper published
in the newly incorporated town, the
list of inhabitants should be of his
toric value:
