STEAM
BOAT MAN
Capt. Hansen First Man to
Navigate River at
Wenatchee.

Capt c. E. Hansen, of Okanogan,
passed through the city yesterday ON
his way to the Sound. Captain Han
sen was the first man to navigate
regular boat on the Columbia river
between Wenatchee and Brewster.
He came to the state in 1892, ran
a boat while on Snake river, then
he brought the steamer Ellensburg
up the Columbia, believing that he
could navigate the river from Priest
Rapids north. They did not then
know that Rock Island rapids was
not navigable. The Ellensburg was
on the run for ten years. This was
during the time that silver was high
and the Ruby mines at Conconully
were in full blast. While the Ellens-
burg was the first regular boat on a
run here the government brought
over a small boat knocked down and
ran it from Wenatchee north to Lake
Chelan. This was the time the post
was established at Lake Chelan and
this small boat was used in trans
porting such materials as they need
ed at that place. Captain Hansen
was accompanied here yesterday by
J. F. Stickles, secretary of the Okla
hogan Telephone & Telegraph COM
pany.

Apricot Season Starting.

The apricot season is now begin
ming in full blast and it is expected
that there will be from 80 to 40 car
leads shipped out of here this year.
The prices averages about SIS cents.
The big canneries, which are gener-
ally owned by the cannery trust, are
idle this year and the apricots are
being bought for general domestic
purposes. 1t is thought that this
price of SIS cents will prevail during
the entire season. A few varieties
of early peaches are also on the mar
ket. These are bringing from 80 to
40 cents. The early varieties always
bring a lower price than the Fosters,
Albertas or Crawfords.

PUMPING PLANT
INSTALLED
J. H. Miller Pumping Water
From Well Near
Moses Lake.

After a great many trials and trib-
ulations, j. H. Miller now has his
pumping plant at Moses Lake COM
pletely installed. According to con-
tract this plant should have been in
early in the season. Mr.. Miller
planted 40 acres of young orchard
and also sowed 40 acres of alfalfa.
There was delay in the shipment
of the plant and as result about
half of the orchard died from lack
of water and the alfalfa also burned
out. The alfalfa is now being re-
planted. The orchard will be filled
in this fall.
The plant is working perfectly
and is pumping about Al miners
inches of water from the 81 foot
we'll. This we'll only contains about
23 feet of water, but all efforts to
pump it dry have proved futile. 1t
is evidently fed from Moses Lake.
Mr.. Miller has 80 acres in one tract
and 100 in another and he is very
optimistic of the future of the Moses
Lake country.
The G. & o. Nursery company has
about 500 acres of land in that Sec
ton and it is the intention to put
in large nursery there this fall.

IT GROWS HAIR
Here Are Facts We Want You to
Prove at Our Risk.

Marvellous as it may seem, Rexall
49, Hair Tonic has grown hair on
heads that were once bald. Of course,
in none of these cases were the hair
roots dead, nor had the scalp taken
on glazed, shiny appearance.
Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic acts sci
entifically, destroying the germs
which are usually responsible for
badness. 1t penetrates to the roots
of the hair, stimulating and nourish-
ing them. 1t is most pleasant
toilet necessity, is delicately per-
fumed, and will not gum nor perma-
nently stain the hair.
We want you to get a bottle of
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic and use 1t
as directed. If it does not relieve
scalp irritation, remove dandruff,
prevent the hair from falling out
and promote an increased growth of
hair, and in every way give entire
satisfaction, simply come back and
tell us, and without question or for
mality we will hand back to you
every penny you paid us for it. Two

Special Meeting of City
Council Held Last
Night.

Some two weeks ago the city coun-
Gil voted to make a thorough inves-
tigatiOn as to the financial condition
of the city, with the idea of delv-
ing into each office separately and
to make recommendation bringing
the expenditures of the city within
the fixed estimate To that end
special meeting of the city council
was held last night and many mat
tiers were discussed. Fred Reeves
was appointed chairman of the COM
mittee and within the course of
couple of weeks report will be sub
mitted to the council as a whole
1t is expected that there will be some
radical changes looking toward econ
omy in city offices. At the meeting
last night there was a general dis
cussiOn regarding the improvement
work which has been done and the
general treatment of the city by the
various contractors. The Wenat-
chez avenue, kittitas and OrOndO
avenue contracts should have been
finished months ago and the city is
going to make a determined stand
to have these contracts finished just
as soon as possible that the assess
ment rolls may be prepared. 1t is
understood that the committee will
recommend radical changes in the
handling of contract work in the fu-
ture

spoke and wrote on the subject. AS
early as 1857 he made trip to Wal
la Walla and beyond, securing sam
pies of soils from the hills there
abouts. In the early COS he was in
the Big Bend country in the vicinity
of the present city of Colfax, and Sc
cured samples of soils there. He
was familiar with the science Of
chemistry and analysed the soils OBJ
tanned, finding they possessed all the
elements necessary to the successful
production of wheat. He did the
same thing in respect to the numer-
Gus portions of Pasco county, Oregon.
Also, he analysed the soils from
Klickitat county, in this state.
He then secured samples Of soils
from different portions of Europe,
in localities where wheat growing
was the most successful and COM
pared the analysis of those soils with
those at home and in this way be-
came firmly convinced that it was
only a question of time when the
territory under consideration would
become a great wheat growing re-
gion and that stock raising, to which
it was then almost exclusively de-
voted, would have to be carried on
in very much reduced limits.
Furthermore, he stoutly main

Clyde Fitch Did One of HIS Best

From ''Dramat!sts al Work" in the Metropolitan

1t is not often one sees the actual writ
ing Of a play. Naturally few authors
care for onlookers while they work.
Clyde Fitch was conspicuous exception.
He was able 10 write under almost any
circumstances. Indeed, had he not been.
he hardly could have produced as album
dainty as he did. Habitually he rose
early and was at his desk while the
morning was yet young. But he made no
hard and fast rule as to working hours.
An instance of his freedom from that
natiOnalism so typical OF creative writers
occurred while he was in the midst Of
