cess there will be no reason why
every breeder in the county should
not make the best possible showing

recommended that birds for exhibi-

opinion that a fine show could be
developed which would prove of
immense value to poultry breeders
and to the community in general.
The matter will be given due con-

MARRIED MEN
p SCORE A SHUT OUT
SINGLE men GOOsE-EGGEO CLEAR
THROUGH GAME

In full accordance with the dope
handed out by the Courier last week
the married men won the game
last Friday with hands down. The
score at the close was s to @. The
batteries at the opening of the game
were Crane and Shinn for the VIC
tors and White and Perry for the
v:,nquished singles. Crane kept
the hits Well scattered and for an
unpracticed team gave him good
support. White for the single men
was wild which cansed good deal
of trouble in the scoring as num-
Der of passes were handed out and
four were hit with pitched balls.
In the sixth inning with the score
4 to 0 a dispute arose about the UNI
pire's decision and two or three
of the single men took their doll
dishes and toGdled home. As to
the merits of the decision we know
nothing, but in as much as the pre-
ceeds were for the benefit of the
base ball team and gotten up to
help the players financially and for
the fun of the thing, to leave tie
field was not just the proper stunt.
After this little elopement on the
part of the single men substitutes
were selected from the crowd, and
Shinn agreed to backstop for both
sides and the game proceeded to a
close with the final result as indicat-
ed. Some Of the boys outside the
players appeared in Dutch, Zulu
and Trouserette make-ups and ad-
ded to the pleasure of the afternoon
with some funny clown work. Rev.
Murray was the appointed umpire
and OF course saw or failed to see
the usual number of plays that
somebody in the crowd thinks the
umpire. should see. This is the
part Of the game the umpire always
goes up against. The crowd was
large and the returns good.

PRESBYTERIAN AID ENTERTAlNS

The Presbyterian Aid Society en-
tertained Thursday afternoon in
formally in honor of Mrs. Rufus
Fullerton who has been one of their
most faithful members.
The regular meeting had been an
nounced for that day at Mrs. F. NJ.
Crosby's and when it was learned
that Mrs. Fullerton was soon to
move to Tacoma plans were made
and a committee took care to see
that Mrs. Fullerton attended. Most
Of the Aid members and other
friends were present and pleasant
afternoon was passed. Dainty re-
freshments of sherbet and cake were
served by Mrs. J. H. Gravenslund
and Mrs. J. B. Rose. The s.ciety
gave Mrs. Fullerton a cut glass dish
as slight token of their apprecia-
ton of her help. The presentation
speech was made by the president,
Mrs. W. H. Collins assisted by all
present.
Mrs. Fullerton was taken COM
pletely by surprise but responded as
best she sould showing her thanks
by her manner as well as by words.

Mr.. Collier is visiting the chief
poultry raising localities in the state
endeavoring to arouse enthusiasm
in the poultry breeders and to as
sist in every possible way in max
ing Washington's display the lar
gest and best 1t the exposition.
He states that the probabilities
are that Washington will have 5000
birds. The entire number at the
show will be between 5000 and
1000. It has been estimated by
some that this will be the largest
and best exhibit ever made. 1t is
true Seattle is in the extreme west
bat the increased interest in the
poultry industry and the stron g
competition between the breeders of
the different breeds all over the
country will bring birds by the car
load from the east and central west.
Mr.. Collier was very much pleas

Kennewick. He was also gratifed

it is expected this county will make

n,oposed franchise for a street rail-
r,y we have heard little now and
,hso about the advisability of grant

netitioners but to the Kennewick
Imnpvement Co. There is no gain
saving the fact that the said Co. de-
serves credit for its endeavors to

and bungalow now being construct
ed, burden the Improvement Co.
With an Indebtedness of over $4,000
what calamity would ensue should
Kennewick add further load in
granting a street railway franchise

Then Mr.. Editor must we depend
upon handful of citizens to assume
all our municipal obligations? Are
We to move forward as a city in such
| haphazard manner? Why cannot
Ee as city assume our obligations
and proceed in an enlightened
manner to improve Kennewick so
kthat the glory shall be to the city
End the rewards properly distribut-
ked? Then Mr.. Editor why give the
franchise to the Improvement Co.
lin preference to the original petit
Honers? Are we merely opposed to
the individuals who compose the
proposed Company? Not at all.
We are opposed to the granting of a
dy's assets to be handled by in
dlyiduals for their own profit. The
Improvement Co. might easily be-
come one man affair or be domin-
ated by a clique, then what would
be our advantage? No, Mr.. Editor
We admire the courageous disposi-

details for her funeral. She re-
que>ted that the Rev. Walton Skip
worth, superintendent of the Dis
trict; should preach her funeral
sermon, but he could not be found
in time.
She suggested that the following
songs be sung: Il found 1t at the
Cross" Wonderful Peace of Gods S
Love-" when the Bridegroom
Comes" and Take Me Home. {"
She also ske,ched the text that
should be used-John AL. Let
not your heart be troubled, We be.
lieve in God believe also in me-"
All of these selections indicate the
tranquil state of mind, the cheering
hope and the triumphant faith in
which she contemplated death.
She had left it all to the Saviour
and was perfectly willing to die if
such was his pleasure. She regret
ted to leave her husband and child
rem and said that they must make
up for her loss by patience and love
for each other.
She remained conscious until the
last and with loving recognition
kissed her family and friends good
bye. She was loving wife, de-
voted mother, a cheerful spirit, and
an untiring and unselfsh worker
for the social, intellectual and spirit
ual welfare of all about her.
She was taken sick Tuesday
morning July 18th of Acute Perit-
onitis. The family physician was
called at 3 o'clock in the morning
afterwards two others were called
in consultation, one of them from
Walla Walla, Wash. Two trained
nurses were in constant attendance.
All that loving hands, scientific
training and medical skill could do
could not prolong her life.
She passed away from this life to
the rest that remains for the faith

" Union Depot" a Great Success

The Union Depot, as given by loca
talent last Friday evening, under the
auspices of Lamoille lodge, N. E. 0. P,
was success from every standpoint and
was a credit to the members OF the order
and those outside the lodge membership
who assisted, as well as to Miss Beers,
whose work in staging the production
with less than weeks rehearsal, showed
much ability. While it is impossible to
mention all of the good things and strik-
ing features of the scene, many of which
might easily have been taken from every
day occurrences at most any station, it is
safe to say that the whole made one of
the most laughable and enjoyable local
talent entertainments seen in Morrisville
in a long time. Notable among the
specialties should be mentioned the song
by Mrs. Geo. NJ. Powers, song by Robert
Gordon with chorus by six young ladies,
solo by Miss Laura Ellis with chorus by
sixteen young ladies and gentlemen and
the children's drill.
The audience was unusually large, the
gross receipts amounting to over $l18,
Lamoille lodge receiving half the net re-
ceipts and their share amounted to over
$50. The committee for the lodge feels

Pipes Frozen by Warm Spells.

1t is a curious fact that water pipes
under ground will often freeze during
the warm spell that follows a cold
snap. The explanation made for this
interesting phenomenon is that after a
cold waye a large quantity of heat is
taken from the ground IN the work of
changing the frozen moisture into wa
ter. and thus, on the principle of the
ice cream freezer, the pipe is chilled.
enough heat being taken from it to
freeze it
