GETTING INTO SHAPE

So intent is the interest in the COM
ing production of the opera "Mikado"
by the members Of the Wilmington
Lodge Of Elks and their male friends
that a rehearsal is being held every
night excepting Saturdays. The cast
rehearsal last night was attended by
the entire cast excepting one member
who is in and the visiting Elks howled
with laughter as these amateur artists
went through their parts. The chorus
will rehearse tonight also Wednesday
and Thursday nights. Friday night Of
this week will be a holiday as the
committee of arrangements does not
wish 10 interfere in any way with the
other circus. The director has at last
decided upon Joseph McCullin for the
role of Nanki Poo, the leading singing
role in the opera. Mr.. McCullin prob
ably has not a superior in the city in

pure rich tenor tones were heard with
delight at the rehearsal.

Man Arrested Hee Last Mon

The man arrested last Monday by
Sheriff Ferguson in a box car, is
found to be Albert Crawford, SEN
fenced from Umatilla county, Ore.
gon, April 10, 1909, to a two-year
term in the penitentiary for burg
larry. The man escaped from the

been working on the penitentiary
grounds at Salem and made his get

successfully, but it said to have made
a confession to brakeman near
Leavenworth and the brakeman in
turn communicated the fact to Sher-

He has the appearance of being a

AMAZED At APPLE
CROP
DR.. Schiltz Returns From
Dayton Compares Pros
poets With Wenatchee.

Having purchased the famous Po-
mona Orchard at Dayton, which is
now his home, DR.. Schiltz yesterday
returned to his recent home of We
natchee to compare apple conditions
with those of the Touchet valley.
He states that the peach crop there
is slightly superior to Wenatchee,
but no district can equal the apples
which this valley will produce this
fall. The doctor was out in the Or
chards this morning and reports
that he never saw the equal. For in
stance, in the Blackman orchard
there are 8 IL tier Spitzenbergs right
now. Delicious in the same orchard
are of enormous size and perfect in
shape.
In the Pomona Orchard our lead
ing variety is the Newtown Pippin,
and we will have a wonderful crop.
We counted the apples on one repre-
sentative tree and found 5000. They
will run about 35 boxes to the tree
and there are 1900 such trees of
that variety. Our Winesaps are very
inferior. They run small in size and
are hardly worth picking. No other
district can compare with Wenatchee
on Winesaps."

CATHOLIC TROUBLE
IN PORTUGAL
Like Spain, Many Causes
Lead to Almost Open
War With Vatican.

Lisbon, Portugal, Aug. 8.-Portu-
gal, like Spain, is almost on the verge
of an open rupture with the Vati-
can. Among other causes is the fric-
ton over the governmental censure
of the Roman Catholic archbishop of
Braga, for suppressing the Portu-
guese Franchician newspaper with
out submitting an order to the Portu-
guese government for approval.
Since the issue of the royal de-
cree July ~, multiplying the arch
bishops action, the clericals, inspir-
ed, it is charger by Cardinal Merry
Del Val, papal secretary of that state,
have been conducting bitter cam
paign against the government.
Danger also threatens the. govern
ment from the side of the republi-
cans on account of the refusal of the
king to redeem a promise made by
the government of amnesty for poll
teal offenders, including members OF
the secret society involved in the
assassination of his father and bro

LARGE MERGER Of FRUIT
GROWERS ASSOCIATIONS
Plans on Foot for Amagamation of Northwest Organ
izations Into One Big Concern With Headquarters in
Big Centers-Plan of Fruit Men to Maintain Organ
ization to Counterfeit Bear Tendencies of Dealers.

A movement is on foot to ANAL
gamate the fruit growers associa-
tons of the northwest into one man.
moth union. The plan includes the
establishment of headquarters in Sc
attic, Spokane and Portland, also at
Chicago and possibly New York.
President P. P Holcomb of the
Wenatchee Fruit Growers association
was asked by World reporter this
morning if there is any truth in the
reported merger. He was inclined to
be non-committal but acknowledged
that negotiations to that end have
been in progress for some time. The
subject was considerably discussed
at Spokane during the last National
Apple Show. While definite conclu-
sions were not reached nor definite
plan formed, the idea took strong
hold on the representatives of the
various associations. 1t was agreed
to work toward the desired union. 1t
is quite possible that meeting will
be called in the near future to take
further steps.
NJ. c. Michaels, prominent fruit
buyer of Chicago who is very well
acquainted with the districts and
growers of the entire northwest, stat
ed to the World reporter that he is
not surprised if the associations are
about to form a union, although he
had not heard of it up to this time
He thinks it is about time for some
thing of the kind to happen and be-
lieves it will be of advantage to the
producers.
A well known grower gave it as
his opinion that the proposed ANAL
gamation is the most needed action
of the fruit growing industry in the
northwest Every district is the vic
tim of continual ''bear" influences
The growers have no definite knowl-
edge of national market conditions
with which to meet the buyers who
offer a price or demand the shipping
of fruit on consignment. The enor'
nous crop, whose value runs up into
millions of dollars every year, is en-
tirely at the mercy of buyers whose
effort is naturally exerted to keel
prices down. There must be some
counteracting bull influences botf
here and in the market centers. Moth
ing could accomplish, that end sc
we'll as this union of the districts
so as to eliminate the present scheme
of the buyers which is to play one
district against another.

EDITOR H,W,SCO7T
IS DEAD
Veteran Newspaper Man Of
Portland Victim of
Heart Failure.

Portland, Ore, Aug. S.-Harvey
w. Scott, editor of the Oregonian,
died in Baltimore, Md, yesterday
afternoon, according to a private tel
egram received here. Heart failure
is given as the direct cause Of death.
Mr.. Scott underwent an operation at
Johns Hopkins hospital yesterday,
performed by DR.. Hugh Young, a
specialist. Following the operation
it was announced that Mr.. Scott's
condition was entirely favorable. The
telegram telling Of his death came
as a surprise, therefore. Mr.. Scott
left Portland July % to have the
operation performed.
Mr.. Scott's last illness dated back
several months. But that the mall
ady was likely to be fatal was not
fully realized until about three
months ago, or shortly after his re-
turn from the meeting Of the Asso-
ciated Press in New York in April.

down THE COLUMBIA IN SMALL BOAT

fruit crop of the upper river coun-
try is good. Scores of un-irrigated
orchards have borne heavily. Cap
tain McDermott states that several
new enterprises, some involving
tracts from SO to 5000 acres, have
been started. New pumping plants
between He'll Gate and Berry are
noticeable around almost every bend.
These developments are the result
Of interest aroused in the county by
the river improvement and the con-
fidence which the people have in the
coming of transportation, just as
soon as tonnage can be produced.
1t is the expectation that steamers
will cover the river from Wenatchee
this fall and bring out the seasons
crop, after which the development
of this territory will be improved
rapidly. All of this will in turn be
followed by the shipping of machin-
cry, building material and merchan-
disc for supplying that country, OF
which Wenatchee will be the mater
ial trade center.
The feasibility of securing the
location of smelter at Wenatchee
to handle the ores of the Nespelum
and other mining districts up the
river, is being considered.

REG|STRA.
TON MATTER
Commissioners Provided for
Registration in Wenat-
chez and Columbia.

For some time past the question
whether voters living in Columbia
and Wenatchee precincts outside of
the city had to register to vote at
the primary election to be held on
September 13 and at the general cleo
ton which will be held on November
s has been unsettled, but the board
of county commissioners settled the
matter last week and all voters re-
siding in those precincts will have to
register and the registration books
are now open at the city clerks Of
flee at the city hall and will remain
open until the day of the primaries,
September 13.
For the first time the voters OF
West Wenatchee precinct will have
to register as the law requires that
in precincts containing $50 voters OF
more the voters shall register, and
C. Gormly has been appointed regis
tration officer and will keep the
books open at the Lewis & Clark
|schoolhouse.
1t is expected that after the gen.
eral election on November the
board of county commissioners will
divide the precincts in the country
where registration is required and
thereby reduce the number of voters
so that no registration will be neces.
sary.
At the present time the boundaries
of Columbia precinct include all that
territory south of the city of Wenat
chez as far as the Stemilt creek. The
north boundary line is Cherry street
Every voter living within these
boundaries should make it point te
see that he is registered.
Wenatchee precinct includes thai
territory between Miller street and
the Columbia river lying north of the
| city of Wenatchee.

LITTLE HOPE FOR
GEORGE bURGE
May Live to Reach Home
Last of Week Opera
ton Not Successful.

1t is the earnest desire of George
Burge to reach his home in Wenat-
chez before he breathes his last.
He is lying in hospital at Seattle
where battle is being waged to
postpone the end. Hopes are enter
tanned that the commission man may
be able to make the trip the last of
the week, but he may pass away at
any hour.
Mr.. Burge did not realize that he
was a very sick man until recently.
Several months ago he discovered
that a growth was forming in his
abdomen. Calling on local physic-
ians he was advised that it was a
tumor on his bladder, but that an
operation would be unnecessary un-
til this fall. Within a month the
tumor grew very rapidly. Although
not feeling i'll, he went to Seattle,
where surgeons advised an immedi-
ate operation. Returning home, he
put his business affairs in as good
shape as possible within the short
time allowed and went back to Seat
tie for the operation. 1t was dis
covered that the tumor had ai-
vanced so far that removal was i'm
possible without immediate disaster.
On the other hand, the mans life
could be prolonged a few days If the
knife should be withdrawn.

Capt. McDermott Made Trip
for the Purpose of Not
ing improvements.

Captain Fred McDermott passed
through the city yesterday en- route
to Spokane. He made the trip from
Kettle Falls to Brewster in t.
foot boat, passing through He'll Gate
and Box Canyon. The passing
through Box Canyon safely in a
small boat at this stage of the wa
ter is the first time that this has
been safely accomplished, according
to reports.
Captain McDermott has been max
ing these trips down the river on
every point of a 6 to s foot varia-
ton of the state of the water, in
order to observe the effect of the
river improvement work in the diff
ferent places in the different stages.
In every place where the work has
been done the alterations in elimin-
ating the dangers and modifying the
current have been successful beyond
all expectations. The best informed
steamboat men are of the opinion
that right now loaded steamers
might make the voyage without SER
ious difficulty to Kettle Falls. Cap
tain McDermott verifies this opin-
ion.
The people up the river through
northern Douglas and Lincoln coun-
ties are preparing to make ship
ments direct to Wenatchee. Reports
are that the wheat yield in those
sections is turning out much better
than was expected. While the yield
il some places has fallen below the
average estimates of the farmers
and that the total crop is 70 to 80
per cent Of that of last year. The
price bids fair to be good which
means that there is no uneasiness
among the farmers financially. The
