Should there be any objections to
the plan of the city council in the
improvement of Wenatchee avenue,
protests may be made on Tuesday,
April g. The council last night or
dered the publication of the jeclara-
ton of intentions regarding the work
on this avenue and designated April
6 as the date for formal protesta-
ton of the work.
In connection with the discussion
of the work on the avenue last night
the council passed an ordinance pro-
viding for an election to authorize
the issuance of $4,000 worth of
general improvement bonds. Harris
& Company, the purchasers of the
$4,000 issue of bonds, which were
authorized several months ago, has
discovered the fact that the meas
ure had not been properly advertised
as provided by law, and the election
was therefore illegal. This means
that the whole proceeding regarding
this election must be started anew
and another bond election held. In
asmuch as another election must be
held the council will ask for $4,000
worth%of bonds instead of 100000,
as at tie previous election. The new
election will have the effect of de-
laying the work at least a month.
Nothing can be done until the funds
are available with which to pay into
court the $4,000 assessed against
the city for damages in the regrade
work. The council regrets that this
delay has occurred but want it dis
tinctly understood that the error was

NO INTEREST IN
BASEBALL HERE
FANS CANNOT GET BUSINESS
MEN INTERESTED in SECUK-
ING GROUNDS OR MAINTAIN
ING TEAM IN CITY.

Two or three men have made
strenuous efforts to awaken an in
terest in baseball here this spring
but to no avail Real estate is too
active and people are too interested
in making money to take any inter-
est in the great national game.
Quincy, Ephrata, Cashmere, Leaven-
worth, Waterville-in fact every
town, large or small, in the state,
with the exception of Wenatchee,
will have a baseball team of some
character.
There is good material for team
here this year There might be a
winning team maintained at very lit
tie expense. All that is needed is a
few men to back the team and it
would cost but little. Messrs
Reeves, Fuller, Scheble and others
own tract 100x450 on upper Oron-
do avenue This is the old grounds
and these men have agreed to turn
this tract over to a baseball associa-
ton for five years. providing that
the taxes are paid each year and that
the grounds are fenced and a grand
stand erected 1t would seem that
this was too good an opportunity to
secure cheap grounds for five years
to be overlooked.

Too much booze resulted in the
death of Ed. Mcneil early Monday
morning, about four miles above
Chiwaukum. Coroner Saunders went
70 Chiwaukum yesterday and
brory1lf the body to this city, where
it has been embalmed by Undertaken
Sprague and will be held pending
advice from the brothers of the dead
man. who live in Nova Scotia.
AS Jsar as can be learned the
facts of fhe killing of Mcneil are as
follous, The man and companion,
both loggers in. the employ of Adams
g. Costello. near Chiwaukum, went
to the little burg Sunday and filled
ND very thoroughly with booze. Tow
ards evening they started up the
track for camp. Each of the men
took bottles with them and evidently
they partook very freely from them.
They had not gone over four miles
when No. 2 came along and Mcneil
WAS too drunk to get out of the road
of the train. He was hit in the
head and his lower jaw crushed in
and his neck broken. The compan-
ion of Mcneil missed him in the
darkness but it was not until morn
ing that he realized that Mcneil had
been, killed.
But little is known of the dead
man. He had been employed for
some months in the logging camp OF
Adams & Costello. He was about rs
wears ofage and has two brothers in
Nova Scotia. These were notified by
wire of the death and the body is
heidi pending advice from them.
