Them New Concessions and Also
to Vacate Streets.

Application for a new franchise
will be made by the North Coast rail-
road to the town of KenneWick on
October 25. At that time the North
Coast promises to reveal to the people
of Kennewick its plans in detail and
state it's reasons for a request for a

er Pacific tracks. THE North Coast
plan. according to the Kennewick
Courier, " is to be in a position to use
a crossing awarded them whether west

to build the road at once"

Valley Power company have asked for
the vacation of number of Kenne-
wick streets and alleys on which they
own two thirds of the property. The

TAFT INCIDENT REVEALS STORY
Aged Massachusetts Man Thinks Mrs.
Harriet Hodge May Be Wife of
Much Sought Son.

Away back in Massachusetts they
have heard of Taft's Yakima sweet
heart and are much interested. That
little incident in the Mayfiower when
the president and Mrs. Marriet Hodge
of the Naches valley, renewed an in
innate acquaintance of quarter of a
century ago, will prove to be worth
m ore advertising to North Yakima
than all the apple booklets and kid
bands combined. 1t also has stirred
hope in an aged father that the Incl
dent may be the means of reuniting
him with a long lost son from whom
he has not heard for 90 years.
F. G. Hodges of Attleborough, Mass,
has written Postmaster w. L. Lemon
for information regarding Mrs
Harriet Hodge, the heroine of the
Taft incident here, thinking that she
might be the wife of his son. The
last names, however, are different. as
well as the given names. Mrs Harriet
Hodge stated to the Herald last night

TY COBB Is DIAMOND HERO.
Most Sensational Play of the Year
Features Second Game of Worlds
Series-Detroit Wins.

PITTSBURG, oct. 9.-The Ameri-
can league champions from Detroit
evened accounts in the worlds cham
pionship series by defeating Pittsburg,
to 2, at Forbes Field today. At least
five contests are now necessary before
the series is decided. Detroit's abil-
ity to hit the National league pitchers
and Pittsburg's inability to connect
with the curves of Wild Bill Donovan
tells the story of the game. Pittsburg
scored two runs in the first inning but
Detroit tied the score with two in the
second. The American leaguers batted
Camnitz out of the box in the third
inning, when they took commanding
lead by scoring three runs. Vic Willis
succeeded Camnitz and two runs from
his offerings in the seventh gave De-
troit it's total seven runs. Detroit
made nine safe hits, getting six from
Camnitz and three from Willis. Dono-
van allowed only five hits.
The most sensational feature of the
game, which was witnessed by 10000
persons. was a steal from third base
to home by Cobb in the third inning.
This was a remarkably well timed
piece of work, and the entire Pitts
burg team and crowd was caught off
guard. 1t was when the first ball
was pitched by Willis that the daring
play was made. AS soon as Willis
started to wind up Cobb started for
the plate, and by a daring slide
reached the plate in time to beat out
Willis throw. Gibson was so sur
prised he dropped the ball after Cobb
slid in.
The total turnstile admission was
30,915, the total receipts $41.SS4.s0,
divided as follows: To the National
Baseball commission, $4,1SS.45: to the
players, $22,617.63; to each club,
$7,539.21. Totals for the two games:
Tickets received at gates, 60,179; total
receipts, $S2,156; National Baseball
commission. $S,215.60; players, $44,-
364.25; each club, $14,7SS.OS.

BLUE RIBBON COWS BOUGHT.
T.. Is. Marks to Receive Seven Pure
BloOded Heifers from Prize
A.-Y.-P. Exhibits.

There will be brought to North
Yakima Tuesday from Seattle, from
the stock show which has been in
progress at the A.-Y.-P. exposition
seven young Holstein cattle which
will become members of the herd at
the farm of r. B. Marks in the Alta
mum. These animals are from the
herds of T. l.. Irwin of Minnesota, one
Of the leading breeders of Holsteins
in the United States, and they are
those which he selected to represent
his stock on the show circuit this year.
Mr.. Marks saw them at the fair and
paid the price, a steep one, in order to
annex them to his herd and make
them residents of the Yakima valley.
Are All Prize Winners.
The animals are all heifers and
have been blue ribbon winners. In
the list are a yearling heifer and a
junior calf which together made a big
hole in a $1,000 bill before they walked
through to the ownership of the local
man. The yearling has been a con-
sistent first prize winner ever since
Mr.. Irwin started out with her from
Minnesota. The calf has won all the
way through as well, and the other
animals have done their share of
catching the judges eye.
Good Promise for Future.
The addition of such stock as this to
the Marks herd means that the local
man will next year, or year after, or
as soon as he enters the show ring, do
as much for Yakima in the dairy ami
NAL classes in the show ring as A. j.
Splawn in years gone by and Duncan
Dunn this year have accomplished
among the beef animals. Mr. Marks
has now some 60 registered Holsteins,
and flowing in their veins is the best
blood of the breed in the world. With
this, and the favorable conditions to
be found at his Ahtanum ranch. he
is building up a wonderfully strong
herd.
Mr.. Marks, Mr.. Davis and DR..
Kloeber were the Yakima Holstein
breeders who were at the A.-Y.-P.
stock show as spectators and students.
The purchase of the seven heifers
from the Minnesota herd is one of the
results of their visit

TO JOIN NORTHERN PACIFIC
Surveyors Are Now at Work i'm Section
Where President Elliott Took
His Automobile Ride.

Northern Pacific surveyors are
now about wahluke and surveyors
are also working out from the main
line of the railway from several points
including Connell, Lind and Ritzville.
Building operations are also going on
about Ritzville. The place where the
surveyors are at work near Wahluke
is one of the sections criss-crossed by
President Howard Elliott, of the
Northern Pacific, on one of his famous
automobile rides through this sec
ton. 1t is also a section well known
North Yakima & Valley railroad,
which is now building into the Mckee.
1t is generally understood by people
interested in land between here and
the Columbia river that the Northern
Pacific will build in or that Mr.. DON
AIDS road will build out. The actual
work to be not over year distant.
Railroads Are Active.
There exists at the present time a
great deal of railroad activity along
the Columbia river both north and
sing of that river by the Northern
Pacific. The North Coast is working
up towards and beyond Wenatchee
and is said to be heading for the IA
nous Okanogan section. Howard
Elliott when here announced that his
line proposed to tap in some effective
way the famous Big Bend wheat Sec
ton. Just what plan would be follow
ed, he said, he did not know. A line
is now building west from Ritzville
and there has been talk of a line
south from Adrain. The Great North
ern has been working down the Co.
lumbia river and now the Northern
Pacific is working in and about Wah-
luke looking for a feasible route to
the point at which it will connect up
with the extension of the Mckee

About Olive Oil.

ABOUT OIlVe O1l.
In this country there seems to ex-
list an unquestionable dislike for oil
in all its uses and states.
AS a matter of fact, it is effica-
cious as beautifer and health
builder
1t is an excellent fattener, and if
one can acquire the habit of taking
a tablespoonful after each meal, it
is an aid to the digestion, complex
ion, and general health.
After every bath anemic children
should be rubbed with olive oil to
strengthen them.
Hot olive oil will relieve the lame
ness in the feet which is caused by
long standing.
1t is also excellent for a skin
which has been made hard and dry
by exposure in the weather
A little oil rubbed into the skin at
night makes it soft and smooth. The
ancient Egyptian beauties knew its
value and used it almost altogether
as an unguent.
AS an adjunct in cooking it is in
valuable The Italians use it for
frying, and the French chefs, who
are noted for their sauces, flavor
everything with it.
Salads would be almost tasteless
without it.
The objection to it is that in this
country the pure quality of oil is
hard to obtain. If it is bought whole
sale at reliable dealer it is nearly
sure to be reliable, and is invalua-
