TO PRESENT THE
COUNTRY SQUIRE
Full Cast of Characters Sc
lected for Band
Comedy.

There was full rehearsal last
night of the cast of characters Sc
lected by the band for it's forth
coming production of The Country
Squire. Judging from the enthusi-
astic comments heard on the street
this morning, this will draw a big
house. The play is delightful "Old
Homestead comedy and the cast a
most competent one.
A village quartet, few local
jokes, old time costumes and an Or
chestra of IL pieces will be a few
of the features of the show.

THE BEST ADVERTISEMENT.

Wenatchee is getting some effect
i've and widespread advertising these
DAYS, and this advertising is not the
result of sending a few pamphlets
broadcast which contain a glowing
writeup of the Wenatchee valley and
which are illustrated with a few
halftones of big red apples, but it is
caused by the presence of the big
red apple itself. The best way to
extend the reputation of the Wenat-
chez valley and other valleys of
North Central Washington is to get
a few boxes of perfect fruit into
places where it is desirable to open
up new markets.
If good displays of apples are
placed in localities which are not ac-
customed to see choice fruit, the To-
cal papers will see to it that the
regions which produce them are
prominently mentioned. If litera-
ture must be sent out a better plan
would be to put some of it in each
box of fruit that is sent out rather
than send it out promiscuously. In
this way the apples themselves would
enable the person who reads the
literature to make a realistic inter-
probation of it.

WENATCHEE'S BIGGEST INSTI-
TUITION.

There is something radically
wrong with a community when good
men seek to avoid responsible posi-
lions in the public service, even If
there is no money remuneration with
the position. Wenatchee needs a
good man in the mayors chair, and
she needs some able men in the
council. Mayor Gellatly has set a
high standard in the mayoralty Of
fee and this standard must be main
tanned The council is too important
a body to regard with Indifference.
1t is a matter of congratulation that
good men are now serving the city
in councilmanic positions and that
they have worked tremendously and
have co-operated with the mayor.
Everyone who has given mo-
ment's thought to the matter knows
that the duties of both mayor and
councilman are becoming more oner-
Gus as the city grows. For this rea-
son there is the added necessity of
using every inducement to get rep
resentative citizens to serve in these
positions. The biggest enterprise in
Wenatchee is the city government it
self. 1t needs the combined efforts
of it's best citizens to direct it in the
proper channels. 1t needs the coun-
sci of both its professional and bust
ness men.

Mrs. Houchin has Relapse

Mrs. A. M. Houchin whose con-
dition seemed very encouraging
since her dangerous illness about a
month ago, took a relapse on Sun
day and her physicians, husband
and friends realized that it was a
very critical moment. However,
she survived the day and night and
the following morning seemed to
rally. DR.. Basham of Wichita
was phoned for and arrived here in
a motor car Monday evening, re-
turning yesterday.
Mrs. Houchin rested better yes
terday and took a little nourish-
ment and there was marked i'm
provement. 1t is the sincere hope
of everybody that she may recover
from this relapse.

Topped The Hog Market

James Mcclure was on the Wich-
ita market with a car load of
hogs last Wednesday and topped
the market at $3.50. The hogs
averaged a74 and were young,
smooth and we'll finished. They
were sold by the Thies Commis-
sion Company to Cudahy. The
price per head was $26.oo which
is the banner price paid for hog
of like size in Wichita's history.
The Beacon says it was the best
lot of hogs seen in Wichita for
months.
Mr.. Mcclure has record for
marketing fine hogs and cattle.
Last spring he topped the Kansas
City market with fat steers.

Don't Tamper with Mail Boxes

People who tamper with mail
boxes on rural routes do not know
how serious it is. These boxes are
supplied by the government for
mail purposes only and the public
has no more liberty with them
than it has with a postofice. 1t
is unlawful to use these boxes as
a means of distributing adver-
tising matter of any kind without
wrapping and stamping the same
as though the matter had been
posted In postoffice, and there is
a heavy penalty attached. Our at
tention has been called to the fact
that mail carriers have found sale
bills in mail boxes recently. The
parties, OF course, meant no ofense
but it is an offense nevertheless
and we have been requested to
warn people against the practice.
1t is also an ofense to open or take
mail out of box unless author
lied by the parties to whom the
box belongs and this is true wheth-
er the box is locked or not. Peo-
pie sometimes take papers out of
boxes, read them and then return
them. This is very serious vio-
lation of law and if brought to
the attention of government off
CialS the offenders would be pun
ished.
1t is also a grave offense to de-
face boxes. The United States
government has charge of every
thing pertaining to rural routes and
the postal department has given
out positive instruction regardin e
the protection of both the patrons
and the property. There has been
considerable tampering and some
body is liable to get into trouble.
An arrest means a trial in the U. S.
court at Wichita and that means
considerable expense in addition
to heavy fine and possible i'm.
prisonment.

A Statutory Offense

A. D. Levens of Elm Mill
township was arrested on Saturda,
on complaint of Alexander Means
charging him with a statutory
crime. In May 1909, the defend.
ant married the complainant's
daughter, Clara Means, and about
two weeks afterward a child was
born. The husband then deserted,
charging the wife with inhdelity,
and after a failure at reconcilia-
ton this action was brought. The
girl wife accuses Mr.. Levens of be-
lngrthe father of the child and de.
nies his accusations. She was un-
der the statutory age of 1S at the
time of marriage.
The preliminary hearing will be
held before Justice Collins in this
city March 18th, Mr.. Levens Civ.
ing a bond for his appearance.
County Attorney Field is prosecut-
ing the case and VIM. Barrett of
Pratt and Noble & Tincher of this
city are defe nding.
This unfortunate trouble is a
blow to two of the best families in
Elm Mills township and it is to be
hoped that the husband and wife
will yet come to an agreement and
live together.

High School Notes

A number of H. S. students in.
dulged in a serenade Thursday ev-
ening.
The fire drill practice on Mon
day cleared the building in one
minute.
Hazel Lonker, in the absence of
Miss Webb, has been teaching the
fifth grade.
The Freshmen were entertained
at the home of Mrs. c. I. Long on
Friday evening.
The Sophomores held their an
nual election on Friday evening.
All of the officers were reelected:
The H. S. INDUCED in a game
of "ClaP in and Clap Out" to
commemorate the final departure
of the "star" of the Juniors.
The Seniors bloomed out in their
class caps on Thursday. They
caused a great deal of adverse crit
icism but the source is considered.
1t has been said that Prof. Major
is seriously contemplating starting
a theological school in the near
future. Hurrah for the good old
town!
Number Ten had a visitor Thurs
day who caused a great disturbance.
He entered by the window and
was knocked senseless by Charley
Pepoon. No one was stung, how
ever.
Saturday afternoon Mrs. Long
entertained the girls of the H. S.
After the party they came down
town and marched two by two
around the square, presumably to
show their spring hats.
1t was the purpose of two prom.
inent Seniors, to give the Junior
cap to pet monkey which hap.
pened to be iu town at the time,
but as the aforesaid monkey refus-
ed to wear it, 1t was returned to
the Juniors.
The Juniors of h. 8. purchased red and white
caps
Which were admired by the Seniors of 1910.
And after stealing one cap they won a bad
reputation.
With cheesecloth, thread and a few old
scraps.
''Some something" they made which would
disgrace sod den,
But they called them good and fair -.rr.A-,pp

The lives of Seniors indeed convince us
That they do the things they ought not do
And consequently will leave behind them
Footprints that will vanish as the dew.

Sunday Train Service

If the people of the north half of
Barber county will get busy there
is a chance to get Sunday train
service. Sunday service has Just
been granted on theEnglewood and
H. & S. lines, and it is said by peo {.
pie who are in a position to know,
that it is within our grasp here.
The thing to do is to get busy
without delay and get a request
before the proper officials. The
northern half of Barber county has
been without Sunday mail and
Sunday passenger service for fifteen
years and it has been a serious
handicap. Let's get busy.

Unlucky and Yet Lucky

Thursday was an exceedingl,
unlucky day for Green Harris anc
and his family, from one point ot
view, while in another way of
looking at it, it was a very lucky
day. Two separate accidents be-
fell them within short space OF
time. Crossing Spring Creek bridge
south of town, driving a span of
mules hitched to a spring wagon,
the team became frightened at
some ducks that were swimming
in the creek, and broke the wagon
tongue, freed themselves from the
wagon and ran up Spring street
where they were caught by VIM.
Rule. The spring wagon came
very near being upset, and if it
had been, the occupants would
have been thrown down into the
creek, distance of about twelve
feet:
While Mr.Harris was seeing after
repairing the wagon, Mrs. Harris
and the children went to Mrs. Har.
ris's mothers home, Mrs Weidner's,
and their little 3-year old girl,
while playing in the yard, fell into
the cistern. The cistern did not
have any water in tit had lust
been completed-and it was fifteen
feet deep, but the child was not Sc.
riously hurt. A small cash was cut
under the chin and one cheek was
slightly bruised. No one except
Mrs. Weidner and Mrs. Harris was
at the house when the accident
happened and when word was
phoned down town to Mr.. Harris
there was considerable excitement
Mr.. Harris and J. H. Minick drove
up hastily and soon got the child
out of the cistern and brought he,
down to DR.. Donovan's office where
the cut under the chin was sewed.
The little girl was the coolest one
IN the company during the excite.
ment and seemed to be quite con
tent~while she was in the under
ground prison.
The workmen had just complet.
ed the cistern and had covered it
with piece of zinc or tin. The
child stepped on the covering, il
tipped and the child fell. 1t was
one of the most fortunate escapes
from serious injury that has ever
come to our notice and Mr.. and
Mrs. Harris have cause to feel that
they have been very lucky in the
way the days casualties ended.
