The haying season is now on at full
blast-that is as fun as the amount
of labor secured will permit. All

that there is still a scarcity OF hands.
The reservation hay crop this year
will be the largest in the history of
this section. Much new acreage has
been planted this year, which in ad-
dition to bumper crop from the old
ranches will require a large force of
laborers to handle properly. There

CITIZENS ARE LIBERAL
Large Sums of Money are Given
to Captain Jenkins for New
Salvation Army Building

Five citizens Of North Yakima have
given a total of $3.50 to the SALIVA
ton Army to start a fund OF some
Sic, 1000 or more which CAPTAIN Jen-
kins will need for the construction
of the proposed Salvation Army head
quarters in this city, work on which
he hopes to begin by July I.
Additional money is promised in big
sums and the present outlook is that
Captain jenkins will have no difficult
ty in obtaining the cash or equivalent
for the purposes proposed by him.
Geo ge Donald has given $3.50: A.
E. Larson has given $1,000 and $500
each have been given by Messrs. Alex.
Miller, Fl. NJ. Gilbert and Coffin Bros.
These sums, it may be said. are
equally tribute to Captain Jenkins
and an expression of approval of the
work done here nv the Salvation
Army.
Tribute for Captain Jenkins.
Altogether apart from their legiti-
mate work as a Salvation Army, Of
dcer, Captain Jenkins, and Mrs. Jen-
kins also, have devoted themselves
to alienation OF the suffering, sor-
row and distress Of all peoples in this
Il strict. The community by common
consent has entrusted to them the
work which Other wise would have
been done by organized charity and
has rested satisfied in the knowledge
that the duties such work called for
were we'll done. In brief Captain and
Mrs. jenkins have made the Saliva
ton Army an institution here and
this fact is revealed in the splendid
contributions which are being made
to the building fund. Further racrs
regarding the proposals of the local
Army o;cers will be set forth from
the pulpits of several North Yakima
churches this morning when an al,
peal will be made for aid for the new
building.

I'm ON my WAY.
'.I'm on My Way" Sang Dellz, But He
Forgot to Add ITO JAIL

James L. Delk, the man who founded
a new religion, named 1t 'Nazerene,
appointed himself commander-tn-chle1,
likened himself to John Wesley and
Martin Luther and carried himself with
the ponp of a pope, was led to the
county jail today at noon singing Il IN
On My Way in default of payment or
the costs in his case in the city court.
Delk is the man who conducted the
mission at the corner of Jackson and
Fourth until the rent came due, and
who preferred charges against Russeu
Yarbrough, a lad who had entered his
service, of stealing a guitar and cornet
from the mission room. The case came
to trial today with the result that the
lad was discharged and the costs of the
case assessed to the complaining wit
ness, Delk.
Yarbrough had gone to Winfield.
There he was arrested and brought
back to Topeka after several days in
the Jail there. Trial was postponed
several times during, which period Delk
created scenes on several occasions at
the court house. Beside charging var
brough with theft, he tried to get a
warrant for another member of his
congregation for taking a pair Of shoes
from the missions collection This lat
ter was refused until after the trial to-
day, and will likely be not made
The defending lawyer for var
brough did not get to use any wit
nesses. All the testimony needed was
statement of the case Judge Pro Tenn
Matt Campbell stopped procedure,
discharged the defendant, and taxed
the costs to the, self-styled, Rev. Delk.
The costs of the case amount to
$65.62. Quite naturally the street
preacher did not have the money.
For a long time he used his eloquence
with the judge to allow him to pay
the costs incurred at Winfield and the
state pay the costs here, but the judge
was not informed on that sort of
practice and refused.
The preacher sent out for the mon
ey, but his messenger failing to return
with it in an hour. Delk was commit
ted to the county jail, singing and
shouting on his way.
His wife declares that justice was
not melted out but that all are pre-
iudiced-even the county attorney.

FIRE FORESTS ENEMY.
Flames Did Great Damage to Trees,
Says Bureau Report.

Washington, March 14.-Fire. the
bane of the forest, played less havoc
in the woodlands of the national re-
serves last year than in 1908, although
the number of blazes was 40 greater,
according TO statistics which have
just been compiled by the department
of agriculture. BY reason of the pro-
tective measures adopted by the de-
partment, almost 80 per cent of the
fires were extinguisheo before as much
as five acres had been damaged; the
fires covered less than one and one-half
acres to the square mile of national
forest land; and the damage done to the
burned over area averaged but $1.26
per acre.
For the year ended December 81
last, there were 3,138 fires in the for
ests, burning over in round figures
100000 acres of which about $4,000
were private land, in national forests,
as against 1000 acres in 1909. Some
10 billion board feet of timber were
consumed, of which 80 million feet
were privately owned. as against 230
million in the previous year. The loss
in value of timber destroyed was less
than 100000, of which close to 1000
belonged to private parties.
The loss of the year before was
about $450,000. Damage to reproduc-
ton and forage showed a remarka BILE
decrease, less than 100000 being the
record for 1909 and over 100000 that
for 1908.
Locomotive sparks were accountable
for more blazes than any other cause.
