Another Offer for Jeffries.

San Francisco, Jan. 22.-James j.
Jeffries, the retired heavyweight
champion. who is filling a theatrical
engagement here, has received an
offer of 100000 for SO weeks of
sparring exhibitions on an Eastern
vaudeville circuit. The offer was
made by Sam Wheeler, the fight pro-
moter OF ST. Louis. Jeffries still re-
fuses TO admit that he has any inteE-
tions of attempting to wrest the
championship from Jack Johnson, but
the belief is growing stronger each
day that the retired champion will be
seen in the ring again.
Although trifle fat. Jeffries
shows all the speed that made him
the wonder of the heavyweight divis-
ion during his active fighting days,
and his sparring partner, Sam Berg
er. is authority for the statement that
the big fighters blows have not lost
their steam.

RE-0PENS PLAIN
INC MILL
WORTHEN MILLING COMPANY is
NOW IN CHARGE OF PLANT
WHICH HAS BEEN CLOSED
DOWN FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

The old planning mill and box fac
tory which has been closed down for
the past several years has been re-
opened under the management of the
Worthen Mill company. H. S. Wor-
then, of Seattle, has the mill in
charge and it is now opened up and
ready for bsuiness. New machinery
has been installed and Mr. Worthen
thinks there will be no difficulty in
keeping the plant running at full Ca
pacity A specially will be made OF
fruit boxes this fall and the plant
has a capacity of about 1000 boxes
per day. General mill work will also
be handled.
The Wenatchee Planning Mill com
pany was the original owners of the
plant The company became involv-
ed two years ago and the plant was
taken over by the Columbia Valley
bank and sold to the Worthen Mill
company.
Mr.. Worthen is a pleasant man to
meet and has the reputation of be-
ing a thorough mill man.

GP[ANS
PROSPECTS LOOK VERY BRIGHT
FOR THE RECLAMATION OF
10000 ACRES OF EAST WENAT-
CHEZ LAND AND QUINCY FLAT.

w. A. Insinger, who was here some
two weeks ago with the object of in
vestigating the possibility Of irrigat-
ing some fifteen to twenty thousand
acres of land above the East Wenat-
chez canal and also of extending the
ditch down to cover the Quincy fat,
is in Seattle this week consulting
with machinery men and engineers
regarding this project. He goes east
next week with the same object in
view and is rapidly maturing his
plans regarding the project. Further
surveys will be necessary before any,
thing definite can be decided, but
from a cursory examination of the
water in the Wenatchee river Of the
different levels and the general con-
tour of the land, Mr.. Insinger feels
that he has on hand the character
of a project for which he has been
searching for many years. 1t will
require an outlay of many millions
of dollars, but should the project
prove feasible, Mr.. Insinger has the
capital available from associates in
Holland.

HILL OPENS SPEED
WAR
CHICAGO-TO-SEATTLE TIME TO
BE CUT 10 HOURS, MAKING
MENTS BROKEN.

Chicago, Sept. 2.-The railroad
running time from Chicago to Seattle
will be reduced to 62 hours-10
hours below the present schedule
as the first move in a war declared
upon all other western and north
western roads by James J. Hill of the
Great Northern, according to a story
the Record-Herald printed today.
The Burlington, Great Northern
and Northern Pacific have made a
proposition to the post Office depart
ment to put a new fast mail train in
service between Chicago and Seattle
to make the long run in 62 hours.
Notice was served today by the
Burlington that, effective September
-, that road would no longer OBJ
serve the western passenger train
speed agreement, but would reduce
the running time of its main Chicago
Denver train by two hours.
If the government accepts the
proposition it will result in facilitat-
ing the northwest mail service by
fully half a day. 1t is proposed to
start the new fast train out of Chi
cago about 1850 a. m. 1t is to ar
rive at Seattle at noon of the third
day.
The Burlington's move in the di-
rection of faster time between Chi
cago and Denver may lead to another
phase of the promised speed war
Formerly the hicago-Denver sched-
ule was 27h hours, but now it is
2e " hours. More than a yea- ago
the western roads made an agree
ment lengthening all schedules to
the Pacific coast. Shortly after 1t was
put in force it was broken by several
of the roads.

DOUBT As To MAR
R|AGE FEES
COUNTIES FIXED DIFFERENT
FEES FOR MARRIAGE LICEN-
SES-IT COSTS $3.50 IN YAKI-
MA-LESS HERE.

There is different construction
placed on the marriage law as
amended by the special session of
the legislature. While the new law
| removes some of the red tape and
| other distractions that stood in the
way of persons getting married, it
has left the amount of the fee
charges somewhat in doubt 1t ap-
pears to be question as to what
fee should be collected. In Yakima
county the prosecuting attorney has
given his opinion upon the new law
and states that the license fee should
be 81, while the former law provided
that 81 be collected for the county
clerk. There is no repeating clause
in the recent law, and therefore the
two laws must be considered to-
gether. The ruling is therefore that
the county auditor collect 50 as the
license fee and 81 as the fee for the
county clerk for recording the in
struments.
But in addition to this there is
the provision that those about to be
married must each file an affidavit
to the effect that each is not insane
or afflicted with pulmonary or other
contagious disease. There must also
be an affidavit from a disinterested
person who knows both those con-
tracing. to the effect that there Is
no legal impediment to the marriage.
The law provides that where the
affidavits are made out before the
county auditor he shall charge the
sum of so cents for each, that would
make the cost of the three $3.50.
The auditor of this county has
taken a different view of the matter
and holds that the law placed the fee
back to the old basis of SO, 50 for
the auditor and 81 as recording for
the clerk. The 50 includes the cost
of the two affidavits where they are
made out by the auditor. If these
are made out by notary the fees
are but 50. The first to secure IL
censes in this county under the new
law were Theo. G. Dakke of Bridge
port and Miss Laura NJ. Larusten of
Norway

AN EARLY MORN
INC BLAZE
WILLIAM HEMINGER AND FAM
lily RENDERED HOMELESS BY
DESTRUCTION OF HOME ON
COLUMBIA STREET AT 5 A. NJ.

William Heminger, wife and ten
children were rendered homeless at
o'clock this morning by the des-
truction of their home on Columbia
street. They had been occupying for
some time a story and half build
ing just north of the Pacific hotel.
In some unknown manner this build
ing was set on fire and entirely
burned to the ground Mr.. Heminger
had difficulty in getting his family
out of the building as the flames
spread very rapidly. Some Of the
family escaped with only very scanty
attire and none of the personal eff
fects were saved. Mr.. Heminger IS
laborer and feels the loss very Sc
verely. He had a new organ and a
new sewing machine, which had been
recently purchased. A collection was
taken by sympathizing friends and
neat little purse raised to relieve
the immediate needs of the family.
The fire department responded
very promptly but inasmuch as the
building was entirely in flames the
principal efforts were confined to saw
ing the Pacific house, the adjoining
building. This was occupied by Mrs.
Hattie Bartlett. Mos tof the tenants
Of the place moved out. The build
ing was badly scorched on the roof
and on the north side. Both build
ings belong to Henry Schubert and
insurance was carried on the build
ings in companies represented by
Frank Keller.
It is conceded that the lower Sec
tion of the city had a narrow escape
this morning and great credit is given
the fire department for its effective
service. 1t was thought for time
that the fire would spread to the
south, taking with it the Pacific no.
ted and Wenatchee theatre.
