INSANE MAN
IS LOCKED UP
UPON HIS OWN REQUEST
John Murray Walks Into Police Sta
ton and Tells Captain Millican
That He Has Gone Bugs

John Murray came to the police
station Monday evening and asked to
be locked up, explaining to Captain
Millican that he had gone bugs"
Accordingly he was placed in the sta
ton with the other inmates but it was
not long before there were evidences
that he knew what he was talking
about. A commotion brought Patrol
man Taylor to the door of the station.
where Murray was discovered in a
death clinch with a negro. Patrol
man Taylor attempted to break the
clinch but was unsuccessful and Ar
thur Kinyon came to his rescue and
it required the combined strength of
both to place Murray in a cell.
This is said by the officers to be
the second time that Murray has been
similarly afflicted and each time he
has asked to be locked up during his
violent spell. While the officers were
landing him in the cell Monday night
Murray thought he was being muir
dered and he yelled murder so Justify
that he could be heard for a block.
Ordinarily he is peaceable and
quiet character who attends strictly
to his own business.

Compromise Between Two Interests
Finally Results in Fixing Purchase
Price at 100000.

pany and representatives of the city
of North Yakima have agreed on
price for the city water works Mr..
Arrowsmith offers to sell for 1910, 900
and the city agrees to pay that price
This is a compromise figure between
the $215,000 at which City Engineer
Doolttle said plant could be con-
structed and the $4,000 at which
Mr.. Arrowsmith offered to sell. The
city finally offered 100000 and Mr..
Arrowsmith asked $4,000 and there
the matter hung.
Engineer Doolittle had reported
that in his estimation the value of
the present plant mas deprecated
$4,000 through use and wear. The
city finally offered to deduct this de-
precation, or approximately it, from
the figure offered by Mr.. Arrowsmith
and it was at this stage that the nego-
tiations came to an end. The super
intendent of the Northwest Light &
Water company accepted and the COM
mittee of the city council. after a con-
ference with the other members at
which the matter was put to a vote

The foregoing appeared in the sum-

Sunday of the race meet at Portland
which closed Saturday. 1t outlined an
incident of the day at Portland which
is a big fact among horsemen in
Yakima. 1t means that Shamrock,
2:1S, is the fastest trotting horse by
he record ever raised in the Yakima
valley. No other horse born and bred
in this section of Washington, and but
a very few in any portion of the state,
have trotted to faster mark.
Shamrock is a black horse and is
owned by L. o. Janeck. who also owns
his dam, and it was on his farm that
the horse was born. He was raised
and handled here and is essentially a
Yakima county product, the first to
trot below 2:20 or to get within sew
eral seconds of that figure. The mark
is recorded and stands to the credit of
he horse until such time as he makes
better figure, which is but a matter
of time, as 1t is believed il he is kept

aster official record.
Many local horsemen believe that
hamrock will make an unusually fast

inverted to that gait. Some think

HAD FONDNEss FOR YOUNG MEN

Judge Preble on Saturday heard
the divorce case of Carl Vertner VS..
Lula May Vertner. The plaintiff,
Carl Vertner brought a suit against
his wife for divorce on the ground of
personal indignities rendering his life
burdensome.
According to the evidence the in
dignities consisted of Mrs. Vertner's
partially for several young men other
than her husband and according to
her husband she claimed the right to
do as she pleased in the matter of
choosing her male associates. Letters
of endearment were introduced in
evidence which she received from
young men and a bunch of hair was
introduced in evidence, which she was
claimed to have treasured as "Benny's
hair" which was claimed to have
belonged to a flame of hers.
Mrs. Vertner did not appear her
self but she was represented by At
torneys Roberts & Udell while Mr..
Vertner was represented by H. J..
Snively. Mrs. Vertner was given one
third of the property by agreement
with her husband which amounts to
about $4,000 and she was also given
the household goods. The two chill
dren of the marriage were awarded
to Mr.. Vertner. Mrs. Vertner is a
daughter OF Charles Moore who for
many years resided in the Naches val
ley and owned what is now the Shea
ranch.

YAKIMA HAS

BIG CRAFT IN ARTIFICIAL RIVER
Drcdoc Constructed by the RctIama-
ton service Will be Equipped for
Service in Il Few Weeks.

Yakima county had ship launch
ing Monday a craft eight times as
big as some that have crossed the At
lantic and large enough to have been
the envy Of Columbus, was launched
into the Sunnysde canal, man made
river the size of which it as a dredge
will double increasing its capacity so
that water may be delivered to an adj
ditional 10000 acres. The Sunnyside
canal now furnishes water for the IT.
rigation of some $4,000 acres. When
enlarged it viii carry enough to water
all the land under it, The boat
launched into it Monday afternoon,
without ceremony and without
trouble, is to become a continuous
bucket dredge. 1t will be ready for
operation in about three weeks and
will work down stream digging it's
own channel as it goes and so enlarg-
ing the canal that it will carry 1000
second feet of water instead Of some
thing in excess of coo as at present.
Statistics of the Ark.
In length the dredge is 50 feet and
has beam of 80 feet. Unequipped
ii draws about IA inches of water but
when the machinery is aboard and the
craft is ready for action its draft will
be three and a half feet. The craft
was constructed by the Reclamation
service, its crew. working under the
supervision of f. McCulloch, engin-
eer The plans We're furnished by
the Rucyrus Steam shovel company
of Milwaukee, which COMPANY will
furnish the machinery. That machin
cry is already on the ground and when
installed will make of the vessel a
powerful dredge of the continuous
bucket pattern. The boilers and
engines are heavy and it is anticipat-
ed that by working a double crew and
keeping the machinery in operation
for Is hours a day the dredge will be
enabled to enlarge the canal to the
desired size at the rate of a mile a
month.
No ceremonies attached to the
launching. There was no christening.
No champagne bottle was smashed
across the bows of the first vessel
OF this county Not even one of the
watermelons which have made the
Parker country so famous was thrown
at the bow. 1t is thus quietly that
history is made.

was locked into the narrow iron cage
and dropped 1900 feet through the

the famous old Leonard copper mine
at Butte today and saw the miners
working the giant drill in the vein
of ore that spanked green with it's
wealth of mineral. When he ascend

underground the president was cheer

who gathered at the hoist and declar-
ed enthusiastically. 81 would not have

1t is the presidents first visit to the
the smelters at Anaconda and the
mines at Butte it was series of inter-
esting experiences not the least of
which was the thrilling autom obile
ride over the mountains from Butte
to the Leonard mine. Arriving here
just before four o'clock he went
directly to the state fair grounds
where after viewing a portion of the
exhibits he made an open air address
and witnessed a race of cowboys. Re-
turning to the city reviewed a parade
of school children. Leaving here this
evening, the president headed directly
for Spokane, where MS is expectd to-
morrow to deliver his formal speech
on the conservation of national re-
sources and irrigated lands.
The tendons of his right foot, which
the president strained before leaving
Beverly, gave him considerable incon-
venience today.
