He Hath a Way

Prin. w. D. Hathaway of Washing
ton, Pa, is believed to be the cham
pion boy trouncer Of the world. Here
is his record:
Boys trounced, 100; boys un-
trounced, /; time consumed, 2 hours
80 minutes; switches worn out, d.
All that prevented the principal hav-
ing clean score was that when he
reached his 101st subject OF the
trouncing bee he was so tuckered
out" that the husky 17-year-old youth,
in fit of playfulness, threw the prin-
cipal gently on the floor and sat upon
him.
This record is the result of breaking
the principals order to refrain from
snowballing. Aside from a disagree
able muscular soreness in his right arm
Principal Hathaway is reported as COM
ing out of the mill in excellent shape.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY IL, 1910

Of mention. This paper does not think
such matters of enough importance to
be considered news" any more than
would a marine reporter the cussing
Of deckhand by steamboat mate.
With the fertile but limping imagina-
ton of a World reporter we could
easily make revolution Of railroad
"cussing" bee.
The editor of this paper has studi-
ously RETAINED from taking fling at
Wenatchee or any of her citizens, tho
the opportunity has not been always
lacking, for the reason that he thinks
it small business that serves no good
purpose. He believes in a course that
promotes good feeling between com
munities and cultivates friendship
rather than strife and ill-feeling. 1t is
only little shrivelled souls that find
pleasure in doing a neighbor an in
jury.
If this latest was the Worlds first
evidence of spitefulness The Echo
might overlook the matter. But ever
since the present owner has controlled
its policy that paper has taken peculiar
delight in printing stuff about neigh
boring towns that is not only untruth-
full but offensive. If under the mis-
guided belief that it is promoting the
interests of Wenatchee its ignorance oil
human nature is pitiable. This paper
has never given it the pretext of re-
taliation, never having had anything
but praise and kind words for its town
and its institutions.
There is some comfort in the re-
Election that if ignorance was crime,
like pocket-picking and sheep stealing,
the good people of Wenatchee would
put the editor of the World in Jail.

rumored since the meeting, however,
that the resolution will be allowed to
remain quiescent until the next meet
ing, when it will probably be reconsid-
cred and killed.
Contractor Hartman was present and
complained that the city was not doing
its duty in the collection of sidewalk
assessments. He said he had built
the walks, they had been accepted, and
he wanted his money. He suggested
that the city start suit at once against
some Of the property owners. The
others might wake up and dig up.
On suggestion of the mayor the
matter was referred to the city attorney.
The action of the city council in the
matter Of the Great Northern and the

SCHOOL NOIE

There was wailing and crashing oil
teeth among the boys of Miss Mobiles
room Monday afternoon when one oil
their number failed to appear at school.
It was the first absent or tardy mark re-
corded against the boys of the third
grade for over month. The boys are
proud OF their remarkable record, and
some were grieved while others were
angered by the shadow that crossed 1t
on Monday. The attendance record
of the girls OF Miss Mobiles room,
though not as clean as that Of the boys,
is worthy of comment.
The pupils who have entered school
recently are as follows: Basil Johnson,
eighth grade; Jessie Fisher, third
grade; Lucia Fisher, first grade, and
Bessie Callahan, first grade.
Bessie and Claude Peake, who for
the past month have been visiting in
Missoula, Mont, Everett, Sultan and
Monroe, Wash, re-entered school this
week.
George Burdette, who has been at
tending school at Wilson Creek since
leaving here early in the winter, has
returned and re-entered the seventh
grade. George has many friends here
and we are glad to have him with US
again.
Mrs. M. Farmer, who taught in the
Leavenworth schools for period OF
seven years, called on the various
rooms on Friday Of last week.
On Wednesday Mrs. VIM. Titus was
pleasant caller in the primary grade.
The teachers and pupils have their
spare time pretty well taken up with
preparation for Washington and Lincoln
programs, which will be given Friday,
February Is, at 2:30 p. m. All par
ents, patrons and school interested
people are welcome.

DEGREE or HONOR BANQUET
Fully Three Hundred Members and Guests
Entertained-Very Enjoyable Affair

The ladies Of the Degree Of Honor,
long known among the fraternal organi-
cations as generous entertainers, fairly
outdid themselves last Tuesday night,
when they laid covers for fully three
hundred persons, including members
and guests of the members of the Or
der, on the floor of the opera house.
The invitations read From r to g."
but it was really eleven o'clock before
the order of "toasts and responses"
was reached. After the tables were
cleared and removed a team of twenty
ladies gave an exhibition drill in uni
form which was symbolic Of the work
of the order and was altogether well
executed and very pretty. After the
drill two hours OF dancing was INDUCED
in by all who felt so inclined, and all
of the younger ones and some of the
older ones were so minded.
The banquet was served in courses
to the number Of six, beginning with a
dainty salad and ending with black
coffee. L. J. Nelson acted as toast
master. Among those who responded
to toasts were Rev. Mr.. Davis, H. E.
Car, F. S. Jacobsen. and Deed H.
Magyar.
Prof. Kringel and Miss Elsie Ander-
son rendered an instrumental duet and
Miss Martha Kringel a vocal duet,
which were enjoyed and helped to en-
Iven the occasion. Mrs. Smith gave
a reading and Miss Bessie Walker pro-
vided the music for the drill.
The ladies of the Degree acknowledge
themselves under obligations to Ed
ward Tholin for the use of the opera
house without charge. 1t is no small
undertaking to entertain two or three
hundred people and do it satisfacto-
rily, giving everybody pleasana even
ing. The banquet was entirely free,
no charge being made for anything.
The members Of the Degree number
some eighty and the order is con-
stantly growing, the object of the
banquet being to promote a spirit of
good fellowship, in which end the
ladies succeeded admirably.

An unusual amount of land has
changed hands in the past three
months. Notwithstanding it is winter
time and the ground covered with
snow, every week we have reported to
US the sale of two or more tracts Of
land. And in every instance the pur-
chaser intends to improve his land and
set out fruit trees. All this points to
unusual activity and development the
coming summer. The fact that the
land in this portion of the Wenatchee
valley is just as we'll adapted to fruit,
particularly apples, cherries and pears,
is now admitted, and the land can yet
be bought at from two to three hun
bred dollars per acre. This must &C
count for the numerous land sales made
the past few months.

Eight of the Great Northern railroad
officials stopped off here yesterday af-
ternoon and had few moments talk
with the citizens in regard to the strike
situation. The friendly attitude OF the
people Of the town toward the railroad
was made plain. twas also made plain
that the people Of this town were not
taking sides as between the company
and their striking employees. An effort
was also made to show that the report
that their employees had been refused
admission TO the hotels and restaurants
was untrue, but Division Superintend-
ent Bowen cut this argument short by
saying they did not come to argue that
question, and intimated that his mind
was made up on that point.

BOODLING CASES
 ALL DISMISSED
INVESTIGATION OF ALLEGED
 8oODLlNG IS STOPPED.
It Was the Opinion of the Prosecut- ing Attorney That Conviction
 Could Not Be Secured

Little Rock.-AIl of the legislative poodle cases on the docket. involving 22 indictments, the W. l.. Greer mur- der case and misdemeanor and felony cases, against 13 others, have beea dismissed by Prosecuting Attorney Roy D. Campbell in the first division of the circuit court. The wholesale dismissals cleared the docket of a mass of old cases.
 The poodle cases dismissed involv- cd II defendants and were based on indictments returned by the grand juFies during the years 1905. 1906, l90t and 1908. They all grew out of the investigation of the legislature ot 1905, most of the later indictments being for perjury alleged to have been committed during the trials of some of the original bribery indct- ments
 Aside from the poodle cases, the dismissal of the ease of ". l.. Greer charged with first degree murder for killing James Reneau September 24 1908, was one of the most important Greer stabbed Reneau to death when the two quarreled in Greer's office oyer an account that Greer was at tempting to collect from Reneau.
 The following alleged poodle cases were dismissed: A ". Rison of Perryville. bribery; C. B. Andrews of Prescott, bribery; II. K. Toney of Pine Bluff, soliciting x bribe and bribery; M D. L. Cook of Little Rock, bribery and perjury; Alonzo w Coyington of Clarksville, two cases bribery, two of accessory to offering bribe, one of conspiracy and one of perjury; F. O. Butt of Eure- ka Springs. bribery; George w. Cald- well, two cases accessory to offering 1 bribe. w. F. Harrison of Osceola l perjury; T. <. lobe of Hope, per, 1 Jury; John A. Hinkle of Batesville bribery; T. W. Hardy of Camden, 1 perjury; George Floyd of Dardanelle, perjury; Arthur Merriam accessory before the fact to bribery; J. II. Hol- land of Greenwood, perjury.
 In asking that the cases be dis missed, Prosecuting Attorney Camp bell submitted long statement to the court setting forth that the cases were heritage to him from his pre- decessor. that none of the defendants had ever asked for a trial, and that he did not believe the evidence was sufficient to secure a conviction He said he had submitted the proposition of dismissing the cases to Lewis Rhoton, his predecessor. and to R. W. Rogers, who will succeed him. and both had aequieseed in his de, cision.

EAST WATCHES APPLE CROP.
Bountiful Yield Expected in Arkan-
 sas-Estimate s6,ooo,ooo.

Fayetteyille.-The eyes of the East are centered on the apple crop of Arkansas. Numerous requests have been coming here from New York and other eastern states inquring as 10 the prospective outcome of the apple crop.
 They have even gone so far as to request samples sent them, and in response to some several boxes of green fruit have been shipped from this section lately. The eastern crops seem to be a failure this year and therefore Arkansas is being greatly depended On for the supply.
 Professor Ernest Walker an expert in this line, and who is connected with the agricultural experiment sta tion of the Arkansas University, states that although several frosts have damaged the crop for the sea son, the crop will be bountiful. the heavy foliage of the trees having pro tected the small fruit to great ex- tent. His estimate of the apple crop for Washington and Benton counties is $6,00O,000.
