him warmly as Dick Mason's cousin

Odd YOU TAKE THAT PICTURE, KITTY"

There was much running to and fro
and a great deal Of merriment as the
stockings were hung in the wide old
chimneypiece. Then each one brought
gifts carefully wrapped and labeled,
and with many attempts at secrecy
they were heaped upon the library ia

two men alone before the fire.
When Dick Mason had finished his
cigar he, too, sought his room, and
then Penfield kept his lonely vigil. 1t
was II o'clock, and the storm was
abating. The soft spat Of snow against
the window panes had ceased, and
there was an occasional tinkle of sleigh
bells from the highway which pro-
claimed that belated Christmas shop

Penfield stared moodily at the pic

the mantelshelf, framed in silver. 1t

MUCKRAKING MUST /
CEASE, SAYS HILL

Seattle.-James j. Hill, chairman OF
the board of directors of the Great
Northern Railway, in an interview
paid his compliments to Theodore
Roosevelt, discussed the future of the
railroads of the country, and consid-
cred the case of the professional
muckraker.
Theodore Roosevelt, poor fellow
know him well-he means well, but
he never has had week of continu-
Gus control of himself since he first
got into power. When he gets a
cheering crowd in front of him he
simply loses all control, and that ex-
plains it,"
Mr.. Hill said the professional muck
raker is now, to all intents and pur-
poses, out of a job. The railroads
cannot undertake much needed new
construction until there is an entire
change of public sentiment towards
them. Neither English nor French
bankers, he said, would advance
money for railroad bonds in America
under existing conditions. The Amer
lean banks have too heavy demands
on the part of municipalities and
other public institutions for bond is
sues to undertake to finance new
American roads.

Mr.. Cannon in his address caused

DAv|DST|NE IS
SUED FOR
$4,000
w. E. Bartlett Charges Him
With Alternating Wife's
Affections.

David Slime, the wealthy pioneer
land owner and capitalist, has been
made a defendant in a $4,000 dam
age suit for the alienation of a wife's
affection from her husband. Mr.
Slime is a widower and has never
ben charged with being fond of wo-
men. The action comes as a great
surprise to Mr.. Shines many friends.
The complaining witness in the case
is w. E. Bartlett, who with his wife,
for several years conducted the Paci-
fic hotel on Columbia street
The papers in the suit were served
yesterday on Mr.. Slime by Officer ms
cho. Rickabaugh & McElroy of Ia
cana are the attorneys for the plain
tiff who is now residing in Tacoma.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
Mr.. Slime alienated the affections of
Mrs. Bartlett to such an extent that
she secured a divorce from the plain
tiff and the plaintiff seeks redress in
the sum of $4,000. The case will
probably be tried out in the coming
term of the superior court.
The Bartlett'S were divorced dur
ing 1909 and Mrs. Bartlett and
Charles |. Gochnour were recently
married.
Mr.. Stein was boarder at the
Pacific Hotel for some time and it
was while there that he is alleged
to have won the affections of his
landlady.
Mr. Slime does not consider the
suit very seriously but refuses to dis
cuss it.

ASPHALT EQUIPMENT

The firm of Allen & McNerney
has installed a plant for unloading,
heating and distributing the asphalt
to be used on the Mission street pave
ment. The plant is located near
the electric light station and on the
switch running in the alley between
Wenatchee avenue and Columbia
street.
Two tank cars each containing 15,-
900 gallons of asphalt are on the
sidetrack. A pit has been dug and a
1900 gallon galvanized tank is sunk
so that the top of the tank is level
with the ground. An engine and
pump force steam into the car tank
so as to heat the asphalt and force it
into a trough conveying the fluid in
to the underground tank. In this
latter recepticle steam coil heats
the asphalt to the boiling point and
it is then pumped into wagons and
taken to the street where it is easily
distributed. This is the newest and
quickest way of laying asphalt pave
ment. -

Wants Cigar and Billiard Room.
The prime reason of Mr. Nordyke's
visit to the city today is to look into
the proposition of purchasing a half
interest in the Maxwell billiard par

Jack Iillis that the latter will erect
building for him on the corner OF
Wenatchee Avenue and PalOuSe st.
Mr.. N0rdyke has these two PROPOSE
tions under consideration and hopes
to do business here before he leaves
the city.
Mr.. Nordyke is one of the highest
priced ball players in the Northwest
League, but he realizes that age will
tell and that only for a couple of
years can he hope to remain in the
premier class, and is therefore look
ing around for business at which he
can settle down and make a good

interested in Mr.. Nordykes securing
a location here, believing that with
him as manager, champion ball

CANNERY SAVES
SITUATION
Facilities for Storing Loose
Apples and Packing Dur
ing the Winter.

The highest prices for high grade
apples grown in this valley during
the past four se;xsons have been OBJ
tanned by storing the fruit with the
Wenatchee Canning company until
spring. This is the claim advanced
this morning by l.. G. Odds, manager
of the big concern.1 He even goes so
far as to say that every spring for
the last four years extra fancy APP
piles have sold at higher figure f. o.
b. Wenatchee than the same quality
has sold for in the city of Chicago,
at that time of year.
Growers are just beginning to real
ize the advantages offered by the To-
cal refrigeration concern. In the
first place it is always better to store
apples in the climate where they are
grown than elsewhere. This is es-
pecially true of Wenatchee, because
this climate is dry. Humid atmos-
phere is even more essential to per-
feet storage than proper temperature.
In the storage rooms of the Wenat-
chez Canning company complete
equipment is present to keep the Their
mometer exactly at 80 degrees Fab
renheit. At the same time, fresh
air is kept in constant and even cir
culation; and this air is made abso-
lutely pure, as we'll as dry. In this
way apples are kept two and three
years from the time they are picked.
Pick NOw-Pack Later.
When the reporter of the Daily
World walked through the dozen df-
ferent storage rooms at the cannery
this morning, he found hundreds of
boxes of apples belonging to growers
who are now at the Vancouver apple
show or who are getting ready for
Spokane These storage apples are
loose in the boxes, just as they came
out of the orchard when picked a
few days ago. When the apple shows
are over and snow is OR the ground
time will not be so precious. The
growers can then come to the can
merry and pack all winter if they so
desire. Convenient facilities are at
hand and no extra charge is made for
this privilege.
Another perquisite which goes with
storage, at no extra cost, is the mar
keting feature. The cannery has
built up a large clientele of miscel-
laneous buyers who send in orders
for fruit from time to time. Growers
may set a price on their product when
it is stored. No commission is re-
quired for selling and the price is al
ways f. o. b.
The cannery has capacity Of 1907
900 boxes. At present only a tenth
of the capacity is in use. Growers
who fear the effect of leaving their
apples exposed to the elements any
longer, and who are unable TO pack
at this time, have a solution here for
their trouble

COMMERCIAL CLUB
ON VELVET
Star Course Guarantee is
Now Covered by Course
Ticket Sale.

That the commercial club will
make handsome profit fro mthe en-
tertainment course which begins
next Tuesday evening, is an assured
fact. Already enough season tickets
have been sold to cover the big
guarantee for the talent. Expenses
will be light, owing to the fast that
the club uses it's own hall and all the
work connected with the manage
ment is contributed. Each purchaser
of a season ticket or of single ad-
mission from this time On will have
the satisfaction of knowing that
every cent of his money goes into
the treasury of the commercial club
to boost for Wenatchee.
The course is growing in popu-
larity hourly as its merits become
known. One young man who is
clerking in Wenatchee avenue
store said yesterday that he had
heard Opie Read eight times at his
home town, down in old South Caro-
lima. and that h ewould walk ten
miles and pay ten dollars to hear
the great story teller another eve
ming.
Scores of Wenatchee people have
heard Montaville Flowers in different
parts of the east and all unite in
saying that his impersonation of Ben
Hur is alone worth the price of the
course.
Probably the two concert attrac-
tons coming within the next three
weeks are the most attractive fea-
lures of the course to the general
public. The opening event next Tues
day evening will tax the capacity of
the commercial club hall. The Cen
trail Grand Concert company will
give the most perfect musical pro-
gram which will be heard here this
winter. On November II the Ger
trude Goodwin Miller company will
present a program long to be re-
membered. Miss Miller has a rich
personality which completely domi-
mates her audience. The musical
artists supporting her will furnish
pleasing variety TO the program.
Season tickets are on sale at all
the drug stores. For two dollars,
no further expense, the holder of the
ticket is admitted to all four events
of the course. In this way he Sc
cures admission at half price, for
single tickets at the door are dol
lar for each event.
