examination of the Panama canal
This task is one of especial respon-
sibility in view of what the United
States government is doing at the 18TH
mus, the amount of money already
spent and the importance of complet-
ing the work according to plans that
will stand the severe tests to which
they will undoubtedly be put.
Mr.. Davis was born in Decatur, ILL.,,
in 1861 and pursued his engineering
studies at the Columbian university,
Washington. He was topographer of
the United States geological survey
for ten years and was photographer in
charge Of all government stream meas
urements from 1895 to 1897. He was
also in charge of the photographic ex-
animation of the Nicaragua and Pana-
ma canal routes. He Is a member of

OLD ENGINE TO FAIR
One of First Locomotives Used by
Jim Hill Passed Through Here
This Morning En- Route
to the Fair.

A number of Wenatchee people
who happened to be at the Great
Northern depot this morning had the
honor of seeing the first engine built
for what is now the Great Northern
system. This Anticipated locomotive
is over so years of age and is quite
curiosity and has but little resem-
blance to the steel monsters now in
use pulling the long trains over the
Great Northern system.
This engine has been kept at st.
Paul among a lot of the other relics
belonging to the company. 1t was
taken from it's shed last year in st.
Paul and did honor at the birthday
fete given in honor of James J. Hill.
1t was steamed up at that time ami
was driven by two of the oldest en-
gineers on the road and also carried
the veteran railroad man for several
miles. The managers of the A.-Y.-P.
exposition desired to display it at the
coming fair and it has been brought
west for that purpose.

AN ATHLETIC
BABY HERE
III. j. KIMMEL HAS SEVEN
MONTHS OLD BOY WHO is
SELF-WANTS A MATCH.

H. j. Kimmel has no faith in the
superiority of California in anything.
He read in the Daily World of last
night the account of the proves of
the French baby, whose father is
now in this city, being called here by
the illness of his brother, Judd
French. Mr. Kimmel stoutly af-
firms that he has a seven months old
youngster who is somewhat a prodi-
gy for strength. The boy is called
Albert. He weighs % pounds and
has never been sick. The child takes
hold of an iron rod and the father
lifts him up just as high as he can
reach The little fellow grips hold
of the bar as though his hands were
fastened there.
Mr.. Kimmel thinks the California
boy has no advantage over his own
in strength or athletic proves and
is willing to match them for $50 a
side, when they are each a year old.

TRAMP SEEMS
To BE LOST
NOTHING HEARD OF HIM FOR
THREE DAYS.-CITY'S NOTED
HE FOUND 1.-THE PAPERS,"

Where is Tramp? Everybody knows
Tramp; little black Tramp. The dog
belongs to everybody in general and
the boys of the Tammany club in par
ticular; the dog that goes into parox-
isms of Joy, or pain, every so often,
and makes the street echo with his
kiyis.
Tramp is missing. He has not
been seen for three days. Three long
days he has failed to answer roll-call
at meal time in Tammany hall; 70"
three long days the street has been
quiet and dull in the monotony of
Tramp's absence. And Tammany
mourns
Little wonder is it that Tramp is
missed-and mourned He Is friend
ly, likable, and has a unique person
atty. Furthermore, Tramp has a
record-a career, If you please-o1
which any better bred canine might
be proud. 1t will be remembered
that something like year ago the
World published the story of Tramp's
finding the papers," being the &C
count of the discovery by Tramp OF
the lost city warrants, worth $4,000
The valuable papers had been taken
from the,office of the city clerk and
had been missing for several days
when little black Tramp, then an un'
noticed, unheard-of mongrel cur, was
found on guard over the package OF
papers, barking out his discovery to
the officers. Since then Tramp has
been prominent as a city character
Hfs dog tax was paid last year by
d1miring friends, and this year, ii
wA understood, the council would
have been asked to refund his license
or pension him, or do some other ap'
propriate act in recognition of the
service he performed.
Tramp is not a FLOODED" animal;
Just plain dog" But there are those
that care for the little fellow and
want him found The regard for him
is we'll founded, for he is an interest
ing dog-ani he found "the papers.

SKAG|I BRANCH
To BE EXTENDED
GREAT NORTHERN REPORTED
TO HAVE MADE PRELIMINARY
SURVEY TO ENTER SPOKANE
BY WAY OF WATERVILLE.
(By Associated Press. J

EVERETT, Feb. 19.-Among the
railroad rumors current during the
present period of activity along that
field of endeavor, is the report thai
the Great Northern Railway COM
pany is planning-has already made
its survey-to extend the Skagit
branch across country to enter Spo-
kane by new route. This may be
mere rumor, yet it may prove to be
fact, for the statement is made in
Everett that the company not only
has large engineering crew at work
in that district, but has actually
placed an order for 100000 rail-
road ties.
According to report the Great
Northern is quietly at work on pre-.
liminaries which eventually will ex-
tend the Skagit branch from it's pres
.ent terminus at Rockport to Water
vile; the present western terminal
of the cut off line extending west
ward from Spokane.
The suggested route would pass
through the rich heart of Chelan
county, opening up a valuable terri
tory, now some distance off the line
of the Great Northern's present road.
/ The order for 100000 railroad
ties, which was substantiated from
another source of Information, dove
tails in a way with the story of the
extension, for, laid about two feet
apart, this number of ties would
cover sore 7.4OO. eco feet. or about
40 miles, which is approximately
the distance between Rockport and
Waterville.

IRRIGATION
FOR THE FUTURE
COLUMBIA RIVER SECTION
SUBJECT OF PUMPING PLANTS.

1t is proverbial that the best lands
for irrigation lie above the gravity
flow of the lands in the canals. To
reach these some method of pump
ing must be employed. The resi-
dents of this section are much in
terested in this subject and during
the coming season there will be
many plants installed, of various de-
sign and make The following from
the Irrigation Age will interest all
those who have land above the High
Line canal or those who live in Sec
lions similar to Orondo, where the
water has to be forced from the Col
umbia river:
''The demand for irrigated lands
has become so great during the past
few years that more attention is be-
ing devoted to the use of power to
pump water upon lands that could
not otherwise be irrigated. For cen
turtles irrigation bitches have been
taken out of rivers and streams in
order to cover land that could not
grow crops without additional wa
ter, and thousands Of acres have
been taken out of rivers and streams
in order to cover land that could not
grow crops without additional water,
and thousands of acres have been
thus brought to a high state of Gull
tivation in all parts of the world.
The ruins of the Incas of Peru, now
filled with earth since their destruc-
ton by the Spanish three centuries
ago. attest to the age of such works.
As time went on it was found that
in certain seasons there would be
insufficient water for all of the lands
under such bitches, and reservoirs
were constructed to conserve the
heavy flow of water that ran to waste
during food periods Of the spring
and summer, at which time the
bitches would not carry all of it; and
also to store the water that hitherto
was permitted to run to waste dur
ing the winter months when the irri-
eating bitches were closed. The wa
ter thus stored has served to ada a
tremendous acreage to that which
could be irrigated by gravity bitches,
and the development of reservoir
propositions is going ahead rapidly
in all parts of the country.
But third step in irrigation was
necessary in order to supply the in
creased demand for irrigated lands.
Good land is not always so placed
that water can be brought to it by
means of a gravity ditch, as the land
must always lie at a lower level than
the source of the water to be so
served. 1t is here that power irri-

last few years many plants have been

(By Associated Press.l

OLYMPIA, Feb. 19.-The senate

Foot Ball.

Several recent deaths while play.
ing foot ball, and the abrupt termina-
ton of foot ball schedules by several
schools and colleges have brought
about crisis in the history OF this
game. The great defect of foot bail
as now played is its emphasis upon
mere physical force. The man who
weighs 200 pounds, other things be-
ing equal. makes far better player
than the man who weighs $50. This
advantage to mere avoirdupois Is not
consistent with the spirit Of good
sportsmanship, which everywhere
gives an advantage to dexterity, skill
fagiiiey,, alertness', and! self-control
Through these qualities base bali,
for instance. places the man who
weighs $50 pounds on level with
the man who weighs 200. A game
in which mere weight counts SO
much must run in rather brutal
channels, until means can be found
for reforming the game, SO as to
make the finer qualities count high
or. AS the game stands today, 1t is
too costly Of human life and health.
But it is too deeply related to our
athletic life to be cast out altogeth-
or. It can be and should be reform
ed, so that the undue advantage
given to brute force shall be cut out.
