rose colored silk worn with a long black
lace shawl that draped the sleeves and
the froat of the bodice and skirt. Mrs.
Stubs and Miss Stubs wore white
wool gowns. But then they all wore
good looking dresses and anyhow when
they shake your hand and tell you
they are glad to see you in way that
sounds as if they meant it, their faces
look better than their clothes, no diff
terence what they have on.

organizer, leader and teacher, a gentle
mother ard a charming hostess.

w. Il. KNAPP HAS A SIX HORSE
POWER GASOLINE ENGINE AND
PUMP WHICH HAS PROVEN
VERY SUCCESSFUL.

w. T. Knapp. acting city clerk dur
ing the absence of Clerk Sumner in
Seattle, takes exception to the state
ment that Jack Smith has the best
small pumping plant in Chelan cou1-
ty. He says that he wants to claim
that honor for himself. Mr.. Knapp
last year purchased 12 acres adjoin-
ing the VIM. Turner place on Miller
street.
This land is above the Miller ditch

and was watered several times by
barrels. This spring Mr.. Knapp put
in six horsepower gasoline engine
and pump and water is taken from
the Miller ditch to water this land.
Besides watering his own tract Mr..
Knapp waters 10 acres for neigh

|WENATCHEE AP-
PILES EVERYWHERE
G. B. LANHAM, WHO BOUGHT AP-
PIES HERE LAST YEAR FOR
NEWHALL, SAYS EVERY STATE
ATE WENATCHEE APPLES.

G. B. Lanham, who last year took
out of this valley very large amount
of the high grade apples for Newhall
& Son, Chicago, is in the valley to-
day ON an inspection trip. During
the past winter Newhall e Son, which
he represented, was absorbed by the
G. NJ H. Wagner & Sons commission
men and Mr. Lanham rs with the new
company.
Mr.. Lanham stated last night to
the Daily World that he believed that
the apple supply of the state to be
about equal to the output of last
year and he stated that possibly pri-
ces might range a little higher.
Said he: "Wenatchee apples are
the best raised in the entire world
Last year with the exception of prob
ably New Mexico, Wenatchee apples
were sold in every state in the Union
I myself paid 25 cents for three oi
Fred Cooper's Winesap apples on the
markets of Florida. Last year opened
up more new trade and territory to
our apples than ever before in the
history of the valley. You never need
fear the lack of buyers. My expert
ence with Wenatchee apples in the
south last year showed me that the
western apples will be used to the
exclusion of the eastern barreled pro-
duct by those wanting a good quality
of apples. Price is no consideration
at all to the richer classes They will
pay the price demanded If the goods
are satisfactory. We made a spe-
cialty last year of Wenatchee valley
apples and while my trip this time is
simply one of inspection of the fruit
districts of the west, yet I am COM
ing back here later in the season and
,remain during the buying period the
same as / did last year."

SPECT0R HERE
j. b. COOMBS, WORKING UNDER
STATE INSTRUCTIONS, is IN
THE CITY LOOKING AFTER
VIOLATIONS OF STATE LAW.

J. B. Coombs, chief sanitary in
spector working under the state
board of health, spent the day in the
city. He has been investigating con-
ditions here and says that he has
found a great many places in the
state that are not as well regulated
as Wenatchee along sanitary lines.
Rats. flies and garbage are the
chief breeders of disease. l under
stand you have no rats in this city,
but you have flies and you have more
or less filth Your proposed sewer
will do away with a portion of the
latter, but | would advise the free
use of lime. Lime is the great
eliminator of filth of all kinds. Use
this freely and you will have a
healthier city"
Mr.. Coombs was in conference to-
day with the health inspectors and
the mayor of the city. He is the
man that waged the very successful
war of determination in Seattle and
Spokane on the rats which are sup
posed to carry and propagate the
bubonic plague.
Mr.. Coombs, after a drive over the
city this afternoon with the local
health officers, called attention to
the quantities of manure that were
to be found in various portions of the
city This is among the worst of the
fly breeders He said that if more
care was given to cleaning up this
manure that the city would be a
great deal freer from the hordes of
flies which infest the city. He also
called attention to the need of the
enforcing of the regulations regard
ing the depositing of refuse in the
garbage cans. He advised the city
officials to strictly enforce this regu-
lation.

J. LOUIS MacEVOY, NOW PLAYING
VAUDEVILLE IN THIS CITY, TO
BUY LAND IN CITY.

To have in the city a newspaper
writer, once on the "dailies" of New
York City is an item of news, but to
say that the aforesaid ''pencil push
er" is "on the stage and in vaude-
ville' is decidedly interesting. Any
body can push a pen, but pencil
must be lead" and it seems that j.
Louis MacEvoy has lead the pencil

country. Mr.. MacEvoy is accom-
panied by his accomplished wife,
Angela May, the gifted young con-
tralto opera singer who is gradu-
ate of Notre Dame university, class
1900. Angela May will very likely
purchase 200 acres of land 80 miles
from this city and start an orchard.
The matter will be decided during
the week. The land will be pur-
chased in partnership with some
friends in Wenatchee, residents, who
will look after the property while the

Evoy believes in his young wife's
judgment and considers her an ex-
pert in real estate investments They
will be here for the week, leaving

LAKE CHELAN A
COPPER DISTRICT
MINING MAN SAYS HOLDEN NINE
WILL MAKE DISTRICT FAMOUS
TAKES MONEY TO DEVELOP
MINES IN THIS CAMP.

1T will not be many years till the
Lake Chelan district will be one of
the leading copper districts of the
country" says c. B. Harknews, of
Portland, who has been inspecting
properties in that section. There are
copper deposits there that will make
many men rich, and will bring big
wealth to the state.
The Holden mine will soon be one
of the biggest mining propositions in
the northwest. In my opinion the
Holden will be one of the big copper
producers of the country, and there
is enough ore in sight to insure this.
1.-THE ore is low grade, but the de-
posits are large. The mine has been
developed by over 5000 feet of un-
derground work, and numerous open
tent of the ledge. The vein is from
40 to 1S0 feet in width.
"A good strike of copper has been
made further up the Childer's copper
prospect 1t looks at the present time
as though several of the prospects
may be developed into mines. The
district is expecting a lot of develop
ment this year, and it should be a
great copper producer. 1t takes money
to develop these properties, and this
district is not poor mans paradise y

GIG LAW IN f.
feet THURSDAY
OLD SMOKERS EAGER TO LEARN
POSITIVELY JUST WHAT COUN-
I'll OFFICIALS WILL DO RE-
GARDING NEW LAW.

Cigarette fiends will have the op-
partunity to put their six months old
New Years resolution into effect next
Thursday when the law takes effect
putting the ban on cigarettes. If
they promised to cut out the habit
but did not have the gumption to do
it, they will now be assisted by the
law. Coffin nails or the making
found in possession of anyone will
make him liable to the price of sew
eral fine pipes or a couple Of boxes
of cigars.
Both County Attorney Kemp and
Sheriff Ferguson stated to the Daily
World last night that the cigarette
law just the same as any other new
law on the statutes will be rigidly
and impartially enforced.
AS the day draws near when the
cigarette may no longer be smoked
in peace and quiet in Washington, a
portion of Wenatchee's population
given to smoking cigarettes is grow
ing wearied. In spite of the fact that
to be caught with the goods means
prosecution, fine and possibly jail,
Wenatchee smokers are laying in sup
plies of papers and tobacco and swear
they will sell their lives dearly. 1t
hit some of the old fellows pretty
hard Many of the old timers here
and especially the old cattle and horse
men have been using the little pills
since they were boys and the new law
hits them very hard
From the Columbia to the Cascades
they are counting the days.
"Only three more" is the remark
as the man pulls out his tobacco bag
and his papers. The usual reply is:
"They won't" or "They can't enforce
it,"
But just the same there are sew
eral thousand wishing the 18th were
here and they knew for certain just
what the authorities really intend to
do about the law.
The fact that man has the goods
In his possession, the "makins,
makes him liable under the law.
Another keeper of a cigar stand
who keeps pills" or the papers with
which to make them in his possession
can also be arrested for a misde-
meanor June 10.
The way in which the law putting
the ban on cigarettes will be put into
effect is being watched with interest
throughout the entire state. The ma
jority of the prosecuting attorneys
of the state are waiting for an opin-
ion in regard to the Interpretation of
the word possession in the new
law, while one or two of the county
attorneys have decided to enforce the
law to the best of their ability.
The new law pertaining to the sale
and manufacture of cigarettes reads
as follows: ANY person who shall
manufacture, sell, give away, distri-
butte or have in his possession any
cigarettes, cigarette papers or wrap
pers shall be guilty of a misiemea-
nor"

The above Associated Press report
will create no undue excitement in
this city. While the press report
would indicate that construction work
has really been ordered for the entire
route surveyed, yet 1t is well known
that the railway company has no idea
of building at this time anything but
the line from Oroville to Brewster.
This has been promised for this sum-
mer and it is likely that construction
work will really be started very soon.
The only thing that might force the
Great Northern to build up the river
from Wenatchee to Brewster would
be fear of invasion by the Milwau-
kee or some other line.

bred. ft0m hoof to forelock. His
Accomplishments in life go down as
the greatest in the history of rail-
road Anancing and management. his
career. frem pinchIng poverty IN
youth to millions and world wide
fame, once more spells for the
American boy the result Of perseveF-
ance and good habits, which made
for Hartman an exceptional open
ing, the full course of which he fol-
lowed with determination and we be-
lieve with absolute honesty to him
self, his associates and the public.
Some Of his views may have been
erroneous, but we believe that he
formed and followed these in the be-
lief that when worked out the good
accomplished for the public would
far outweigh the evil, and we be-
lieve that results to date have justi-
fed him. His passing removes a great
intellect from aid of the develop
ment of the country, but the organ
ization he has made will go on with
his work and expand upon 1t, as
has been ever true in the past. The
light of such a mind does not die,
but remains to illuminate, broaden
and strengthen the minds which
have been grouped about it., Har-
riman's activities of the past and
present are a closed chapter, in
dexed and in order. Hartman plans
of which personal supervision in the
future was cut short by death, will
be carried out at least as he would
have had them go, perhaps better.
His death will not interfere with the
progress of the country for a minute.
1t is not built that way. Bears wish
it was and may strive to make Is
appear so, but success does not lie
their way, beyond paltry spoils from
the pessimistic and the weak with
ears ever alert for disaster and ever
ready to jump overheard rather than
stay with the ship and look upon
sunshine ahead rather than shadow.
Their utter route will add the cap
sheaf to the triumphs of Hartman.
May he have it and the added peace
which it will bring him in his grave.
