ANNUAL MEETING
OFFICERS ELECTED FOR THE
COMING YEAR - REPORT OF
SECRETARY SHOWS A NICE
PROFIT FOR THE YEAR.

The regular meeting of the stock
holders of the Farmers Telephone &,
Telegraph company was held here
yesterday and officers and trustees
elected for the ensuing year.
The report of the secretary showed
very substantial profit for the past
year. There remains in the treasury
some $4,000 net profit and instead
of following the usual custom of de-
claring a dividend it was voted to ex-
pend this in the improvement of the
plant. There are many calls made on
the resources of this company for
new lines and improvement of serv-
ice and it was thought best to use
the profits of the business in extend
ing the system instead of paying it
out in dividends.
In view of the showing made it
was decided to advance the price of
the treasury stock from $50 to $50
and Sos. A single share will cost
SOS, but in case of parties desiring
good sized block of the stock the
price may be cut to $50.
1t was formally decided by the
stockholders present to ratify the
plans of the directors as outlined in
the Daily World of a couple Of weeks
ago, to expend some $4,000 in i'm
proving the service and extending the
lines.
The old board of directors was re-
elected: Arthur Gum. H. c. Little
field and z. A. Lanham. The direct
ors also elected a Cashmere man to
act as advisory to the board on the
service at Cashmere. The officers
were elected as follows:
President-Z. A. Lanham.
Vice President-Arthur Gum.
Secretary-H. G. Littlefeld.
Treasurer-C. E. Owens.

The rest of the boys walked up,
planked down the same number of

Young Lizards Latest Dish.

French epicures and French cooks
have long been credited with the gift
of originality, but it has remained for
writer in the Gil Bias to point out
the full extent of their originality in
the choice of menu.
According to the write, fried liz
ards are becoming a favorite article
of diet with the French gourmet, and
young crocodiles and snakes are also
largely consumed.
About 5000 common lizards are
sold to restaurant dealers every year,
and those who supply this commodity
find it very profitable. There is even
greater demand for the salamander,
which is a special kind of lizard, and
5000 of these are disposed of yearly.
Young and tender lizards frequent
ly bring as much as small chickens,
about 81 apiece. Old and dry ones
are got rid Of at ten cents.
Snakes bring good price, too, and
fines ones are worth as much as tur-
key. Adders are considered specially
delicate, and are most in demand.
Young crocodiles find an excellent
market. They are nearly as dear as
a good-sized calf, and when very small
they fetch fame ypriees. Not many
of them are sold in a year-perhaps
hundred or thereabout.
Legs of frogs in comparison with
all these delicacies seem very COM
monplace. and the Gil Bias writer
says the taste for them is On the
wane. Only some 10000 are now
sold annually. Snails still hold their
own. especially the Burgundy one,
and millions of them are disposed of
in the small popular restaurants.

DUNbARS CAPT|-
VATE FULL HOUSE
AN INFORMAL PROGRAM OF THE
BEST IN MUSIC RENDERED IN
MANNER.

Enthusiasm ran riot at the We
natchee theatre last evening. The
Dunbars made their first appearance
in Wenatchee, but not their last, we
venture to predict. The audience
became as enthusiastic as if the occa-
sion were a booster meeting of the
Commercial club. The very first
number on the program, a male
quartet selection, was encored three
times. And the excitement never
waned throughout the evening.
The stage presented an imposing
appearance with the long green COW
erd table with its burden of 200
bells. And there were things do
ing around that table when Nevins'
"Gondolier" was rendered on the
bells A beautiful encore was gener-
Ously granted in "The Slumber
Boat cradle song by Jesse l..
Gayh6r But the bell selection that
proved most popular came later when
chimes were initiated in giving a
number of familiar hymns. The audi
ence became very quiet and it was
evident that memories of scenes and
events of the past were being called
up in almost every breast. Nearer,
My God, to Thee" sung by the quar-
tet and accompanied by the bell
ringing, was certainly very impress
sive.
The bass solo by Mr.. Felgar and
the cello number by Ralph Dunbar
were gems of artistic merit and were
roundly applauded. Mr.. Felgar's
ballad singing was remarkable for
it's appeal to the heart without the
least bit of OVERRIDING it or offending
the most fastiiious taste.
The good things were too numer-
Gus to give due credit to each. But
the burlesque on grand opera was
one of the greatest hits we have
heard 1t was excruciatingly funny,
but at the same time some mighty
clever singing was done The SEX
tet from Lucia" was excellently
done from musical standpoint.
The acting was superb.
Harry Dunbar showed himself a
master in the art of entertaining by
impersonation.
The gentlemen themselves made a
most lasting impression on their
hearers by their bearing end easy
mastery of the variety of specialties
introduced. They had many friends
in Wenatchee before this visit, but
now we are all friends of the Dun
bars and they can't come back too
soon.

PLEADS FOR DUTY
ON SHINGLES
REPRESENTATIVE HUMPHREYS
TALKED ON TARIFF BILL AND
WANTS LUMBER INTERESTS OF
THE STATE PROTECTED.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, March 26.-Repre-
sentative Humphreys of Washington
discussed the tariff today and took
issue with some statements of Rep
resentative Payne in his opening
speech, in which Payne said he
thought fewer Orientals worked in
the lumber mills of British Columbia
than in mills in Washington. Humph-
reys declared so per cent of the men
of the lumber and shingle mills in
British Columbia were Orientals, and
were paid lower wages than Ameri-
can mills laborers, and therefore
made the cost of production less. Out
of $500 men employed in the shin
gle mills of Washington there are
but Al Orientals. He also said that
Of 10, 1000 men employed in the lum-
Der and single industry in Washing
ton but $500 were Orientals. Humph-
reys pleaded for increased duty on
shingles.
Representative Pou, of North Caro-
lima, discussed the tariff in the house
today and said the present bill was
not a revision downward as promised
and that the Payne bill was worse
than the Dingley bill. He criticized
various schedules and declared the
proposed reduction in the tariff on
lumber was another evidence of ia
voritism shown in framing the bill"

There will be no demonstration

little money and that they secured ev-

which was converted into money for
the trip. Miss Emery visited several
newspapers when she arrived in San
