SELL TREASURY STOCK
Farmers Telephone & Telegraph
Company Needs $4,000.

Owing to the many improvements
that are in progress under the di-
rection of the Farmers Telephone &
Telegraph company, the company
finds it necessary to sell block of
$4,000 worth of stock Heretofore
the local company has had no diff
Guilty in disposing of its stock, as it
pays a guarantee dividend regularly,
and the institution is one of the best
paying of any of the local incorpora-
lions. The stock will be on sale only
a short time and no trouble is antici-
pated in disposing of it. 1t is likely
this will be taken up by the stock
holders themselves.

LEAVE TOMORROW
Local Football Team Plans on Win
ming Friday Game.

In a special car decorated with a
long banner the Wenatchee high
school foot ball team will leave on the
Oriental Limited tomorrow for Seat
tie. ALL the suit cases of the boys
will be covered with stickers on
which are pictured big red apples.
A spirit of win or bust has taken pos
session of every man on the team and
confidence exists that victory will
perch on the Wenatchee banner.
The cripples are in better condi-
ton today although Heide will be
unable to participate in the game.
Sterling and Tweed will occupy their
regular positions.
Coach Sievers has taken a very
strong position against betting on the
Friday game 1t will not be tolerat-
ed by any member of the team and
all of their friends will be discour-
aged from showing their partisanship
this way. The coach considers that
gambling will kill the sport and he
will fight it in every way possible.
The Queen Anne manager phoned
over this afternoon that coach Dobie
is opposed to using the university
athletic field for the Friday game
A strong pressure will be brought to
bear to secure these grounds. If
unsuccessful one of the ball parks
will probably be used. The Wenat-
chez boys will remain in Seattle to
see the Idaho Washington game Sat-
urday and will return home Sunday
morning.

name of the man who blew up the
Maine. He was Jose Zavaldo. He
was an electrician at MORO Castle.
| 1t was he who threw the switch
which set off the powerful mine and
destroyed the ship, which sent 207
/ lives into eternity in a fash. Zav-
aldo afterwards was shot by the or

la piece of the cable that led from
the mine to a room in Moro Castle.
That piece of cable is now in the
navy department at Washington
According to Brady's statement,
the concrete false bottom of the ves-
sci was blown to pieces and particles
fell on the decks of the ships anchor

from the army in 1899. He was
asked today why the report given to-
the president and secretary of war

remarkable degree OF self sacrifice as
well IN his devotion to the work. The
assistance which he lent in securing
the large amount OF money for the de-
frayal Of expenses and remuneration
Of the evangeiistic workers shows self
abnegation TO a large degree. Indeed.
it seems unbecoming that the people Of
Independents should have given q
sum nearing the 5000 mark to the
cause and not q red cent to this LOYAL
worker. who helped from his own
moager Income to swell the reward Of
the evanEelisfs The local ministers
walked out q the union meetings with
empty pockets These four weeks OF
strenuous exertion and the acoumula-
Iion Of a large body Of member Ger
lainly deserved something more In the

cents a ton, the operators and miners
of the district comprising of Ohio, In
diana and western Pennsylvania met
here today in postponed joint con-
ference to adjust wage scale for
new contract beginning April |.
The miners in their convention at
Indianapolis made demand for
wage increase from 80 cents to 81 a
ton. While they have not formulated
their demand, it is generally under

all other districts and declaration of
the miners that if the conference dis
agrees a general strike may result,
the conference assumes widespread i'm

LEGAL CLASH IN SWOPE CASE
Or. Hyde Dismisses Suit for 100000
to Prevent Dispositions.

Kansas City, Feb. "a legal clash
developed in the sensational Swope
case today. 1t came when at the re-
quest of Frank p. Walsh, attorney for
DIR. b. c. Hyde, the circuit court at
Independence, Mo-, dismissed the suit
brought recently by the physician
against John c. Paxton, executor of
the Swope estate, asking for 100000
for alleged SANDER.
Mr.. Walsh's move was made, it was
stated, to prevent the opposing attor-
neys from securing the deposition of
DR.. Hyde and other heirs. The order
TO dismiss the suit was filed in the
court just as persons subpoenaed by
both sides were assembling to give
their dispositions.
John II. Atwood, attorney for Mr..
Paxton, thereupon promptly petitioned
the circuit court to restrain Mr.,
Walsh's notary from taking dispositions
IN Dr. Hyde's second suit, which was
for 100000 damages and which was
directed against Mr.. Paxton as we'll as
against Drs. Stewart and Hall.
The restraining order was granted
and served upon Mr.. Walsh without
delay. At the time Mr. Walsh was in
the midst of taking dispositions for
Hydes side of the case. He did not
oppose the restraining order, but ap,
pointed another notary and proceeded
with his dispositions.
Attorney Atwood then likewise pro
Ceeded to take dispositions for the op
posing side in second suit.
