The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-08-11

That the forest fires in the northwe est
are proving costly is shown in estimates
being published, >, though in the vicinity
of Spirit Lake and within the iurlsdic-
ton of Pend Oreille Timber Protective
Association. Secretary Hawksett says,
the actual losses thus far have been
confined to the expense incurred in
fighting flames. The fires hereabout
have been confined to the slashings. but
large forces Of men have been and are
employed, which with the expenditures
for supplies have raised the loss to
large sum. In other sections reports
are that some holders of valuable timber
have suffered losses. The Panhandle
Lumber Co. has lost no timber on &C.
count of the fires, or if any, only an
occasional tree within or on the edge of
the slashings.-Spirit Lake Herald.

MEIHOW PROJECT
OF 10000 ACRES
Extension of Ditch Will Wa.
ter Large Acreage of
Lower Valley.

Another important step has been
taken in the redemption of North
Central Washington from sage brush
waste to fertile orchard. The extern
sion of the Bollinger ditch to cover
the lower portion of the Methow val
ley is now assured. When completed
this irrigation project will furnish
abundance of water to the Pateros,
Upper, Antoine and Howard flats
This territory includes about 10000
acres and leaves little of the great
MethOw valley unsupplied with the
essential element of it's development
into vast orchard of 10000 acres.
Yesterday J. M. Ellingsworth, of
Lincoln, Neb., arrived in this city ac-
| companied by his wife and son. He
is the moving spirit of the project
and is said to be it's general man
ager. This morning the family went
up river by boat Mr. Ellingsworth
will complete several contracts with
land owners With some the COM
pany has traded land for water right,
while with others an outright pur-
chase of the land has been made.
For some time II. w. BoetZkes,
the Chelan engineer, has been en-
gagged in the preliminary survey. His
work has been accepted and con-
structions is already under way. 1t is
hoped to have the enterprise con-
summated by next season, so as to
allow the water to run in the bitches
| for spring planting.

Miss Edna May Curry, the young
woman who was found unconscious
on the street about a week ago and
was taken to the Wenatchee Gen
eral Hospital for treatment, is very
ill, and both the doctors and nurses
are afraid that she may die at any
time. She is growing very weak
and does not realize where she is.
In her delirium she talks continu-
ally of a man whom she was to
marry the day she was taken sick
on the street, but which was post
poned. This man has called to see
her but once since she has been at
the hospital.
Friends of Miss Curry state that
she is a very fine woman. She is
but 20 years of age and is an Or
phan. 1t Is stated that the Young
mans mother opposes the marriage
though the young people have been
engaged for some time. The post
ponement of the wedding has wor-
ried the girl a great deal, and has
resulted in her present sickness.

DAYS POTATO FAMINE
Plenty in Valley But RanChers Too
Busy Packing Apples to
Dig Potatoes.

For five days there has been a
potato famine in Wenatchee. Not
a grovery store in the city has any
supply whatsoever. The reason
given is that the ranchers are rush
ed to the limit picking their apples
and packing them. They have no
time to dig potatoes. The potato
patches have done we'll this year
and the hills are giving a good yield,
but the fruit crop is so much more
valuable that everything else must
be sacrificed to the work in the or
chards. The price of potatoes is
$3.50 per hundred.

PHEASANTS ARE TAME
New Birds Imported by the County
and Protected rom the Public
Almost DOmesticated.

Some of the Chinese pheasants i'm
ported by the county and protected
from the public for number Of
years, are becoming quite tame.
There is a pair of these at Peshas-
tin. The cock has made his home
with the chickens belonging to Guy
Stage and has made it point to be
on hand at feeding time. The hen
has been out with her brood most OF
the time. Mr.. Stage says that he
sees trouble ahead as the male pleas
ants have already killed a number
of his smaller chickens. 1t is said
that the female has quite brood this
summer and il the winters prove to
be not too cold it will only be ques-
ton of a few years until this game
bird will have multiplied into thou
sands in Chelan county.

RAILROAD MEN IN
SESSION
Forty Passenger Agents and
Other G. n. Officials
Met Here Yesterday.

They came, they saw, they con-
quered. The passenger agents of
the Great Northern on the Spokane
division are the captives of Wenat-
chez. They have been sentenced to
sing the everlasting praises of this
valley. The punishment is severe,
for these men talk to hundreds of
people every week, but they will do
their best, and no doubt each will
finally hear the "Well done, good
and faithful servant. Enter thou in
to the joy of having told the truth. :"
The meeting of the railroad men
was huge success. Perhaps other
meetings have given more oppor-
tunity for the discussion of railroad
problems, but the visitors say that
never have they enjoyed themselves
more nor been so impressed ,1y the
wealth of resources of a community
as here in Wenatchee.
Some forty agents and officials
were in attendance, most of them
ARRIVING ON the noon train. The
Wenatchee Hotel was their head
quarters and the meeting took place
in the rooms of the Commercial
Club.
After being called to order by P.
T. Meter, of Harrington, president
of the association, the program was
begun without delay or ceremony.
The general passenger agent from
Spokane gave a general talk on the
problems of the passenger business
of the road o. F. Ross, of Ephra-
ia, read thorough discussion of
the problem of Overflow Charges
and Undercharges." w. A. Ross,
western passenger agent of Seattle,
arrived too late to make his address.
G. L. Seibert. general claim agent,
told interesting methods of handling
claims.
Much more was scheduled for the
program, but Agent Piper had au-
tomobiles in waiting promptly at
four o'clock and all voted for q spin
through the valley without delay
Enthusiasm ran riot as the visitors
whirled through mile after mile of
the beautiful valley and saw the
thousands of trees bending to the
ground with their burdens OF wealth.

SPOKANE INDIANS
Won PENNANT
After Twenty Years Falls
City Cinches Northwest
Championship.

Vancouver, B. c., Sept. IA
hal" cried Catcher Danny Shea, rip
ping the mask off his face and ex-
posing a smile that threatened ia
crack it. This gleeful yelp of the
peppery backstop was echoed by a
dozen happy members of the S1o-
kane ball team at Recreation park
Saturday afternoon when the last
Vancouver player was retired III the
ninth inning, and the game won fol
Spokane, 6-3.
For with the game went the un-
disputed claim to the Northwestern
league championship of the 1915
season, Spokane's first pennant in 20
years. Spokane has a lead of seven
and one-half games, with only seven
to play, and can not possibly lose out
now unless the protest of five games
much talked about recently, material
ICES. Not one good fan in Vancou-
yer wants the pennant on that sort
of a deal, however, and Bob Brown
is shrewd enough advertiser to al
least play the part of good sports
man.
Win With Bunch of Cripples.
Spokane came to Vancouver last
Monday with a badly crippled team
but game enough to fight tooth and
nail for the last critical series of the
season. They were then six and a
half games to the good and in the
ordinary run of events did not even
need to break even with Vancouver
this week to win, as they close the
season with the tailend Turks.
Even Break for the Day.
The Spokane pennant winners
broke even on a double-header with
the Beavers by taking the first game
to 3, and losing in the second, l.
to 0. The last game, however, was
more a comedy of errors than base
ball, for the Indians were so jubilant
over cinching the pennant that they
scarcely cared to give Vancouver
another drubbing, when 1T was nc
longer necessary.
Cooney, Scharnweber and Brown
featured in the games through ar
oversupply of errors. In the first
game, with Baker twirling against
Miller, the Indians annexed one rur
in the second inning, chiefly due to
Nordyke's double at the start. Van
couver came back with three runs il
the third on singles by Lewis, Breer
and Adams, pass, sacrifice hit ant
a wild throw by Shea.
Not daunted, the har-hitting red
skins gathered in three TALES in the
fourth. Nordyke singled and stole
second. Levy walked. Netze
grounded to Breen. Hetling flew tc
Swain and Nordyke scored. Shea
doubled, scoring Levy and Netzel
This ended the scoring for Spokane
until the eighth inning, when two
more tallies were gathered in.

All that has been said about the cook
ing of eggs could be said of meat, Over
heated beef tea or beef juice are like the
leathery white of egg. They should be
heated over water The most appctiz-
ing way OF serving raw beef is in sand
wiches. The round of beef is good for
this. Use bread at least day old, cut it
in thin, even slices and remove the
crust, Scrape the raw meat and spread
on the bread like butter Put the sand

long enough to brown the bread, but
not cook the meat, which will be a pale

toast and serve at once. Oysters call for
the same delicate cooking, and they
should be served as soon as the gills be-
gin TO riffic. An invalid often appre-
ciates an oyster put on square of toast
and allowed to stay in the oven till the
gills curl, and then served with little
butter, salt, pepper and lemon Juice
Sweetbreads call for the most delicate
cooking at low temperature.
Fruits are valuable as part Of the diet
and are usually preferred raw. Apples
can be scraped, and other ripe fruit can
be reduced to pulp and swectened

egg and served very cold. A few drops
OF lemon juice will keep the fruit from
turning dark. as well as develop the
