STAGGERING the Lecturer.

town was holding forth on matters as

A gigantic private in the army was

one morning charged with being dis
orderly in the public street.
"WhO makes the charger asked the
colonel.

went to the spot and saw the prisoner
Private Jones-singing at the top Of

"And you could hear him 300 yards

Booze Sales Good in Wenatchee

Friday night by Sheriff Ferguson and
Chief OF Police Inscho on the lodging
house on Columbia street conducted
by Telma Stanley. Three men went
to the Stanley lodging house and 20
gallon keg Of whisky was opened up
and the men were making free with
the liquor when the officers raided the
place. The woman was taken in
charge and afterward confessed to the
officers that she had been selling for
the past two months on an average OF
$1,000 worth of liquor each month, but
she stated that her sales did not run
nearly as high as some other places
that are being conducted in the city.
Besides the 20-gallon barrel consider

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1909-11-26

The latest railway rumor, and one
that apparently has good foundation, is
that the crew OF surveyors camped
some four miles northeast of Wilson
Creek are Great Northern men, and
that their mission is to outline a route
whereby the main line may be short
ened.
The route now receiving attention
will leave the main line at Bluestem, a
small station east of Harrington, and
run almost due west until it effects a
junction with the present main line at
Wilson Creek. This will not only
shorten the line some ten miles-and
with the new fast mail service every
mile saved is a big consideration-but
will avoid the possibility of trains being
delayed by the annual spring freshets
and washouts in the vicinity of Irby
and Krupp. The rich wheat country
north OF Odessa will also be tapped,
and much Of the grain which now goes
to the Washington Central, branch of
the Northern Pacific, will be hauled by
the Great Northern. Another object,
and by no means the least, will be to
keep the Milwaukee out OF that terri
tory.-Wilson Creek World.

time they had ever saw such thing
done.
This show outclasses the first one
held last year in every detail. 1t is
housed in a tent covering three acres
Of ground, the largest canvas ever put
together in one mass anywhere. -Four
hundred growers have 1900 exhibits
entered, and the actual number Of ap-
pies on display exceeds 100000.
All apple growing sections of the
United States have exhibits on display
and there are some entries from Can
ada. The Chelan valley is represented
in this mammoth assemblage of apples
with more than two carloads Of the
finest fruit ever shown here, and Chelan
county has a total Of many carloads.
The show is educational in purpose
and its value to the grower is largely in
its advertising advantages, so that the
prizes offered, while they are for the
most part mere incidents in compari-
son with the expense Of making the
exhibit, are much coveted and compe-
tition is strong for the best of them.
The Chelan valley contributed the
largest apple shown this year. 1t is a
trifle over Al ounces in weight and
measures l716 inches, and is well
shaped. 1t was grown by F. L. Post
& Son, Of Chelan, Wash, and is Of
the Spokane Beauty variety. The
second largest apple is a Wolf River,
which weighs 81 ounces.

TREMENDOUS DISPLAY
Rogue River, Ore, EWon the Sweepstakes
Pdze-over q Million and
ftalf of iAnples

While Of course Chelsn would. have
liked to carry of the first grand prize,
which was captured by. Rogue River,
our growers do not feel badly about it,
If the. carload prize had been awarded
by points on richness Of coloring, this
valley would undoubtedly, have been
the winner. In spite, however, of the
handicap in favor Of ight-colored fruit
Chelan equity was awarded the second
grand prize in the. carload exhibit on a
car Of Winesaps.
Speaking Of Chelan's. failure to win
the sweepstake prize for carload lots,
the Wenatchee World says: Although
Chelan county did not win the sweep
stake prize for the carload lot, yet she
demonstrated that she leads all COM
petitors. Other counties in North Cen
trail Washington made good showing
as well and the superiority Of this re-
gion for the growing Of choice apples
is recognized by the awards made in
the plate and box exhibits. AS to the
carload lot. had there not been a. handi-
cap in favor Of the light colored apples,
the prize for that also would have come
to North Central Washington. But the
resources Of this region are so clearly
recognized at the present time that the
loss of this prize will not in the least
affect its prestige. The superiority Of
this will be more clearly recognized as
the younger orchards come into bear
ing. These orchards will produce the
best varieties which past experience
has proved to be best adapted to our
soil and climatic conditions and which
the latest horticultural knowledge has
made possible. 1t now only remains
for the fruit growers Of this region to
insist on honesty in pack and to send
out only the most perfect fruit in order
to maintain the prestige which has
already been acquired"
Among the numerous awards made
in the special prize list, Chelan county,
mostly ugh3Wenatchee exhibitors,
was more conspicuous than any other
district. Out Of % special prizes this
county received Is frsts and IL sec
onds, outdistancing greatly every other
section. Ellsworth France, Tedford
Bros, c. S. Green and e. N. Small
were the leading Wenatchee exhibit
tors in this class, while VIM. Culver
and J. H. Watson & Son OF Chelan and
P. B. Packwood Of Entiat brought
home honors for their respective dis
tricts.
