SPOKANE NIGHT
At APPLE SHOW

Spokane night will be celebrated
at the National Apple show the
evening of Tuesday, November 16,
when there will be number of at
tractive features and pleasing
musical programs by the orchestral
bands under the direction of Pro-
fessor A. G. Reemer and H. Van
Hinkle. The former has 32 expe-
rienced bandsmen, while the latter
has 70 men, including several SOLO
lists.
The trustees of the show look
upon it as unfair to ask the bust
ness houses and industrial con-
Germs to close their places for an
afternoon, as is frequently the
case, while big fairs are in prog
ress. However, the chief reason
is that many out of town people
will take advantage of the low
rates on the railroads to combine
business with pleasure, thus Civ.

WEDDING IN HOSPITAL,
BRIDE IN RECLINING
CHAIR
Surgical Operation Did Not Deter
Her from Keeping Date Set
for Ceremony

STAMFORD. Conn, Nov. 81
Propped up in a reclining chair,
Miss Edith G. Parker, youngest
daughter of the late James H.
Parker, was married in a private
room at the Stamford hospital
yesterday, to s. Garfield Lowden
Of Cos Cob. The Rev. Charles
Morris Addison, rector of st. John
church, Stamford, officiated.
Miss Parker, an art student, had
been engaged to Mr.. Lowden about
a year. They had planned to be
married yesterday.
Two years ago Miss Parker fell
and injured her spine. Recently
the injury became troublesome,
and she went to the hospital for a
surgical operation that involved re-
moval OF bone. The operation was
successful and this week Miss
Parker has been sitting up. Mr.
Lowden, daily caller at the hos
pital, urged that the original plans
be kept. The bride ossented and
at p. m. yesterday the marriage
took place in the presence of the
brides mother and another rela-
tive.

Forty-two deeds and 30 mort

day at the auditors office. The

The adoption Of odd lengths in
the various standard grades of
lumber was advocated in an ad
dress before the Western Pine
Manufacturers association yester-
day by V. H. Beckman, delivered
at the meeting held in the assem-
bly, room of the chamber of COM
merce. This plan is being gener
ally adopted on the coast, as it
means a saving both to the manu-
facturer and the consumer. At pres
ent the standard grades of lumber
are cut only in even lengths.
c. L. Smith, industrial agent of
the lnalnd Empire system, is be-
lever in dry farming and insists
that 10 acres under the plan of
intensified farming will produce as
much as 80 or 100 acres under the
one crop plan. He thinks the COM
ing of the Dry Farming congress
next year can be made as important
an event as was the irrigation con.
gress this year.

scream of joy. A street parade by

HERMANN VIEWS
ON THE TAFT DEAL

Cincinnati, December 3o.-Assuming
that Mrs. Annie Sinton Taft, her hus-
band Charles p. Taft. and Charles w.
Murphy are interested in more than one
club in the National baseball league, 1t
is announced that they will be expect
ed, by at least faction in the league,
to dispose Of their holdings in either the
Chicago or the Philadelphia National
league club prior to the opening of the
baseball season.
In commenting on the purchase by Mrs.
Taft of the grounds of the Philadelphia
club. August Hermann, president of
the National baseball commission. said
tonight
Il knew several days ago that such
step was to be taken There is at
present no rule in the National league
which prevents anyone from owning
. stock in two clubs, but l think if Taft
! and Murphy don't sell the Philadelphia
club before the beginning of the season
OF 1910 they win be asked to do so.
II believe that Taft purchased ths
Philadelphia park as an investment and
intends to lease the grounds to the part
les to whom the club is sold.
Neither MI. nor Mrs. Taft could be
seen tonight. but the opinion was ex-
pressed by baseball experts generally
that no serious controversy would arise
from the subject.
