The question of saloons or no sa-
looms for the city of Wenatchee is
to be submitted to a general vote of
the citizens on Monday, February s..
This was decided upon at a special
meeting of the city council held last
night.
The meeting was called by Mayor
Gellatly for the purpose of studying
the financial condition of the city
and the needs for the coming year.
Three of the members of the council
being new, it was deemed eXpedient
to do this in order that each member
of the council might have a thorough
understanding of the municipal af-
fairs. After a thorough examination
of the expenditures and of the &C
complishments, by way of improve
ments, during the last year, also of
the contemplated needs for this year,
it was the unanimous opinion that
the general operating expenses will
be many thousands of dollars less
this year than last. The water sys-
tenn and the regrade of Wenatchee
avenue will take a great deal of
money during the coming year, but
these are taken care of by bond is
sues. One of the objects of the city
council in going over financial affairs
last night was to make a thorough
examination of the probable receipts
and expenditures and to come tC
some conclusion as to whether the
city improvements would be ham
pered without the license money
from the saloons. The conclusion
was that the city could get along
without the saloon money and the
question is to be submitted to the
voters as to whether or not the sa
looms should remain or should bt
closed up.
The state ment of the city clerl
showed that while the expenses fol-
the past year were about $4,000
yet $4,000 of this was for expense:
that do not have to be met thi.
year. The estimated expense for the
coming year is placed at about $50,
900.
The estimated revenues for the
coming year, without saloon licenses
are placed at about 100000, divided
aS follows.

Breathing Spell for Gothamites.

New York. Sept. 29-The absence
of spectacular features from today's
program of the Hudson-Fulton cele-
bration gave the tired Gothamites
and visitors alike an opportunity TO
rest up after the great doings of
yesterday and to prepare themselves
for the grand military pageant, the
naval parade and other spectacles
yet to come. There was little to at
tract the masses in tOday's program,
but for members of patriotic societies
lovers Of aquatic sports and other
classes of individuals there was much
Of interest.
Included among the events of the
day were rowing races on the Hud-
son between crews of the foreign and
American warships, commemorative
exercises at the city hall under the
auspices of the National Society Of
Patriotic Women of America, spe-
cial exercises in colleges and schools,
an historical parade in the Bronx
and children's festivals in the Bor-
ough of Richmond.

Richmond, Ind. Sept. 30.-An in
teresting celebration was held here
today OF the one hundredth anniver-

No Wedding Presents for Them.

No Wedding Presents for Them.
There was news on Friday as to
how Chicago young woman and her
st. Louis fiance went to Milwaukee
to be married in order that they
might avoid big wedding at
home"
After marriage they returned to
Chicago, established themselves in a
hotel, and sent word to the brides
family just what had happened and
why. AS there was no objection to
the match, their explanation was
quite satisfactory.
According to the latest reports,
they feel that they are just as well
married as if they had had the reg.
ulation church wedding. The only
difference they can probably see is
that their rooms are not cluttered
with wedding presents.
It will strike many that this couple
really performed a humane act in
having a quiet ceremony instead of
the customary church-and-invitati
wedding. Their particular friends
may not feel that way about it. But
the friends Of thousands of past and
prospective couples will applaud the
example.
To come right down to the facts
the quiet, uncermonious and invita-
tionless wedding has the great advan-
tage, at least in popular estimation,
of not calling for the giving of gifts
by large circle of acquaintance.
This giving of gifts, while not onerous
in single case, gets on the nerves of
many people after a while.
When a man thinks he has figured
out about what his accounts for the
month will come to, and is filled with
serene joy at the idea that he will
come out even, it is rude shock to
his nervous system to have his wife
tell him at dinner that she has just
received invitations to two weddings,
both of which call for nice presents.
1t is at these moments that he I'M
derstands the lifelong obligation in
to which he entered by being a mere
ly passive partner in accepting all
those duplicate, triplicate, quadrupli-
cate and generally superfluous gifts
when he was married himself. He
understands how foolish was the early
pride of possession, untempered by
the thought of the unlimited success
sion of. drafts which would be drawn
against these deposits.
And if the married man, who has
at least had some sort of past COM
pensation for his present troubles,
feels thus when he receives wedding
invitations, what must be the state
of mind of the confirmed bachelor
who never had and never will have
the slightest chance to get even?
Some people advocate a tax on
bachelors. 1t must seem to the bache-
lors that the wedding present custom
imposes one sufficiently heavy.
Those friends thou hast, and their
adoption tried, grapple them to thy
soul with hooks of STEEL" says the
poet. The Chicago young woman
and her st. Louis fiance have shown
one of the best ways of graphing
them we know of just now.

HILL LOOKS FOR BOOM
IN OPTIMISTIC MOOD.
Erpects Great Business ReUUat
When Tariff 4gitation Ends.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]


Washington, May 13.-James J. Hill is in an
optimistic frame Of mind. The only thing, in
his opinion which prevent great ana
speedy business boom is too much delay in
passing the tariff bill. He is for cutting off
speechmaking and allowing the country to for
get about the tariff and get down to farming
banking and other business.
Agitation and oratory in Washington keep
the peoples eyes turned in this direction ana
prevent them from doing their own share or the
business of the country said Mr.. Hill to-day.
What we want most is to have the tariff agi-
tation over and done with. If this is specify
accomplished. all we Will have to do is sit back
and see the wheels of progress hum. All this
talk about the stock and bond business in New
York being detriment to business In the re-
mainder of the country is buncombe The
masses of the people are not bothering them
selves with stocks and bonds They are busy
with their crops.
The Great Northern road runs through
section that supplies one-sixth of the wheat or
the United States The wheat outlook is good
I don't think there will be a big crop. 1t prom
ises 10 be a fair one, however The trouble Is
that the acreage is not a large one. Heavy
SHOWS late in the spring prevented ploughing
the ground being too wet. After the ground
was ready TO plough. many farmers put in oats
and barley The ploughing should have been
done last fall
The West and the South TO be the great
sections of this country in the future. The West
is now for that matter, and the South is coming
forward with leaps and bounds. The South ex-
hausted her soil before the war by her methods
of improvident agriculture and is now strus-
Cling to restore the soil. She is succeeding TOO
and has great future"

saturated with oil and set fire. The police
found in the cellar an axe covered with blood and
wrapped in old clothing.
Stories told by the widow and by Miss Ida Ar
