Work on the Priest Rapids branch
of Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound railway down the west bank
/ of the Columbia river from Beverly
to Richland is we'll under way. A
crew of over 100 men now Is work
ing on the grade at Priest Rapids
and seven camps will soon be started
between there and the main line.
Work will be pushed with all possible
speed by H. c. Henry, who has a
contract for the entire branch.
Leaving the main line at the Col
umbia river bridge the branch goes
south through the Rose Land COM
pany's orchard tracts, following the
river bank at Priest Rapids, where
for distance of four miles an ex-
pensive cut is being made on the
east slope of the Yakima mountains,
which come close to the river at this
point. From the big Hanford and
Richland districts there will be only
a slight grade. This will give an
outlet for these big irrigated tracts,
which will mean quick development of
these districts and homes for thou
sands of prosperous farmers. Early
garden products can then be shipped
to Seattle and other Sound cities and
Spokane and the Inland Empire three
weeks earlier than the Yakima valley.
Potatoes have been shipped In small
quantities from this district as early
as July 1, commanding as high

upon the countryside, as the great
furry bees with their golden chains,
like city aldermen, went droning past
him, there was a sense Of peace and
quiet Joy, which came back to him
with all the tenderness and sweet
ness Of an old song.
They came into the village. The
matched cottages, covered with wis
TARA; the gardens, brilliant with old
fashioned flowers (stocks, and phlox,
and hollyhoCks), nestled among huge
elms. On the other side of the little
green road rose the gray Norman tow
err Of the church and the red roofs Of
the rectory.
Basil had arrived.
He got down from the carriage and
sent the mar to the local inn, and
then walked up the trim graveled
sweep to the old house.
The maid servant who opened the
door took him at once to a long, low
ceilinged drawing room, fragrant with
pot-pourri and all the simple refine
ments of such a house as this.
The sunlight poured in through the
open French windows, which gave
upon the lawn. There was the distant
murmur of the moving machine. Here,
indeed, was tranquility and peace.
Then the door opened, and Daisy
came into the room.

EXPLAINS KNOTTY POINTS
IN GOOD ROADS LAW

A school OF instruction attended by
highway commissioners from every
township in Wayne county was held In
the county building. Saturday, State
Highway Commissioner Horatio S
Earle presided as instructor, and most
OF tne time was taken up explaining
TO the officials points in the good road
law over which there has been more
or less uncertainty and friction.
A recent decision OF the supreme
court placing upon the farmer the ne
cessity OF providing his own bridges
over highway bitches running in front
of his farm, was explained at great
length by MIR. Earle. He said the de-
cision was one OF the most important
of recent years, affecting country
roads. The supreme court holds that
when a ditch is constructed in front
OF farm it is up 10 the owner 70 con-
struct his own passage ways and
bridges 10 his land. The decision
points out that this may be a hardship.
but ii must be borne by the individual
for the public good.
These schools OF instruction are a
feature of the good road policy of the
administration. and are being held reg.
ularly all over the state.

AS RESULT OF MALIGNANT DIS
EAsE-WAs AZ.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-Benjamin F.

flinching. Mrs. Sadie Hurtig, the man
ayers wife; his sister-in-law, Mrs

bedside when he breathed his last. In
the house at the time there were
dozen other relatives who had reached
the house yesterday when they learn
ed that the end was at hand.
Mr. Hurtig's grit throughout his
fatal illness was remarkable. The dis
ease of which he died manifested itself
for the first time three years ago. IL
was tumor on the left side, not far
from the heart. Mr. Hurtig consulted
the most eminent physicians in New
York, and afterward went TO Europe TO
consult the experts there. All told him
the same thing--that the tumor was
malignant one and that an operation
would kill him because the tumor was
SO near the heart.
Mr.. Hurtig returned TO New York
after consulting the European spe-
cialists with his doom sealed. but none
knew IL from his demeanor or from
The tone of his speech. He had deter
mined simply TO fight on and work
until the end came His cheerfulness
did not desert aim and be attended To
the various theatrical enterprises in
which he was interested just as he had
done before.
Finally he could no longer walk
from his home to his offices in the
Harlem Opera house building on West
One Hundred and Twenty-fifth-st., In
which is Hurtig 4 Seamon's music hall
