DEPOSITS ALMOST
100000
STATEMENTS OF LOCAL BANKS
SHOW THIS CITY TO BE IN A
VERY HEALTHFUL CONDITION
FINANCIALLY.

The statements of the three banks
in this city published this week show
deposits amounting to almost ST.
100000. Considering the fact that
the fruit crop is just beginning to
move and that there has been no
summer fruit to amount to anything
this shows Wenatchee to be in very
prosperous condition. The statement
of the deposits of the three banks are
as follows:
Columbia Valley bank. 03.679.87
First National bank. -. 5,291.27
Farmers & Merchants. =. 125, ,267.91
Total ............. 1914, ,441. 05
The preceding statement called for
by the comptroller of currency in the
spring showed deposits amounting to
over $1,000,000, but since that time
there has been little produce mar
keted and it is not to be expected
that the deposits would hold up as
high at this time. One month from
now there will be great deal Of

Statesmen WIN SUIT
AGAINST EASTERN FIRM
Company Fails to Make Em-
pIoyes Paw for Advertising

Judge Seawell has rendered judg-
ment in favor of the plaintiffs in the
action in which T. p Clark and J. P.
Hulsman. statesmen, sued George P. Ide
& Co, shirt and collar manufacturers
Of Troy, \. Y. for compensation under
a contract Clark sued for $3.036 and
Hulsman for $500, and under the
judgment of the court, on the basis of
per cent of business transacted from
September. 1905, to April. 1908. Clark
will receive a little less than 81 600 and
Hulsman about $500.
Considerable interest was taken in
the cases by other houses in the same
business. by reason of the fact that Ide
& Co. attempted to charge the sales
men with the expenses of advertising
in California Clark agreed to pay
5000 a year and Hulsman $3.50 year
toward the advertising fund. but the
firm contended there was an oral agree
ment for much larger sums.
When Clark asked for settlement
at the time of his discharge last April
he was confronted with a bill for ad-
vertising totaling s3.511 for three
years Ide & Co. in its answer to
Clark's suit, claimed that instead of
owing him $3.036 Clark owed them
$500 Judge Seawell refused 70 allow
the claim for advertising against the
saiesmen. He said IL was wrong that
they should be made to pay for pub
iicity ordered by the home Office in
TROY.

Her Affections
zzZzZ

Mrs. Marie Louise Pene does not love
a spirit husband" She told Judge
Graham so yesterday during the hear
ing of hers suit for divorce from Jean
Baptiste Pene, prominent building
contractor. Some weeks ago Pene
caused a furry in spiritualistic circles
by the assertion that he had a phantom
had a spirit husband to whom she
would remain faithful until released;
further, that she had an inherent ab-
horrence to real men, and that the
spiritual one had replaced Pene in her
affections.
YES, 1 believe in spiritualism," Mrs.
Pene told Judge Graham yesterday in
reply to questions, but I do not under
stand what you mean when you ask me
If l have a spirit husband
Did the spirits ever tell you that
you had another husband?'
mo. l never consulted them on the
point
Mrs. Pene denied the story of the
husband in the spirit world with great
indignation. She said that while she
believed in spiritualism she did not be-
iieve in fortune telling.
Mrs. Pene was granted divorce on
the ground of desertion, but she also
alleged cruelty. Before the trial began
Judge Graham made an attempt to rec
oncile the couple, but failed He did.

shake hands, the first time in five years,
Pene said. Mrs. Pene testified that
about five years ago her husband forced
her TO leave him by his unkind treat
ment and by refusing to give her
enough to pay the expenses of their
house. She said also that her husband
slapped her and told her she would
wake up some morning and find herself
in the asylum If she didn't look out.
Additional testimony was given by
Rose Pene. a daughter, who told of her
father threatening her mother with a
carving knife and soup ladle.
Mrs. Pene, who signed a separation
agreement five years ago under which
she received SIS a month. was yester-
day awarded property worth $3.50 in

reason why she was cut out of Los

A PRAYER.

Teach me, Father, how to go
Softly as the grasses grow;
Hush my soul to meet the shock
Of the wild world as a rock;
But my spirit, propt with power,
Make as simple as flower;
Let the dry heart fill its cup,
Like poppy looking up,
Let Life lightly wear her crown,
Like the poppy looking down,
When its heart is filled with dew,
And its life begins anew.
Teach me, Father, how to be
Kind and patient as tree;
Joyfully the crickets Groom
Under shady oak at noon;
Beetle, on his mission bent,
Tarries in that cooling tent;
Let me, also, cheer spot,
Hidden field or garden grot-
Place where passing souls can rest
On the way and be their best.

small troubles will become aggrav-

will become enrooted, and there will
be mutual disappointment.-on the
part of the newcomers with the Is
lands, and on the part of their en-
ployers with the immigrants.
The present experiment with
Russian laborers appears to be in
fair way to failure through what is
probably series of misunderstood
ings, fomented into grievances
through ignorance on one side and
fatuous folly on the other, and mag
nified through the mischievous work
of those who do not wish to see the
experiment succeed Just what
particular ground for complaint the
Russians who have left the planta-
tons may have, we do not know.
Complaints, supposed to be from
them, have appeared in the Man
churian newspapers, but the natural
inference to be drawn from read
ing of these complaints is that some
more skilled pen than that of
peasant wrote them.
The fact remains, however, that
there is complaint and that, in the
minds of some, the complaints just
ify charges of injustice and of mis-
representation on the part of the
agents who brought the Russians
here. Before the matter goes any
further, an investigation should be
made by the board of immigration,
through capable interpreters. If
there be ground for legitimate COM
plant on the part of the immi-
grants, such should be learned and
the cause removed; if the ground
upon which complaint has been
made is found to be one of misun-
derstanding only, proper explana-
ton can be made to those interested
and better understanding arrived
at.
The Russian experiment looks so
promising as one means of settling
the labor difficulties this Territory
experiences that no misunderstand-
ings capable of being explained
away and smoothed out should be
allowed to make it abortive. The
Russians who have so far landed
here are apparently of that class
which will make desirable settlers;
