The association adjourned sine die

then treated to a joy ride over the town
and out into the country, where they
were deeply impressed with the great
accomplishments of the peopl. The
country is dotted vita fine farms and
farm houses, and in spite OF the drouth,
proofs Of the great fertility OF the
soil were seen everywhere. The coun.
try around Clovis is by long odds the
handsomest in New Mexico, and the
soil being deep and rich, 1t offers an
opportunity for the farmer which has
few equals anywhere. The majority

St. Paul, April 8.-Two masked
bandits boarded the Chicago, Mil

at New Lisbon, Wis, and locked both
vestibule doors. The conductor,
passing through the train, came to
the locked door, opened it and faced
the revolvers of the two masked
figures. Conductor Shumway leaped
on the larger of the bandits and in
the tussle which followed the rail-
road man was overpowered. One
robber cut the air connection, STOP

1t is reported that the men took

Epilemic of Electric Signs.

Only last winter there were but
three electric signs in the city. More
are being added right along and
there are now nine signs in the city
although some of them are not yet
mounted. Not counting the World
sign on Mission street, there will be
eight of them on two blocks of We
natchee avenue in the next few days.
Ardron's pool hall has a sign that
is being put into place today. J. M.
Duffy has another one still in the
crate, and a sign for the Gem the
atre is at the depot. The Gem cafe
has one ordered that will soon be
here. Then there is the cluster light
belonging to the Oakland Iron Works
that is standing on Wenatchee ave-
nue. for the purpose of showing the
how well the city would look
with more of them. Broadway in
New York is often called the Great
White Way, and Wenatchee avenue
will soon be entitled to the name of
Little White Way. The business
part of the avenue is not very long
but it is going to be blaze of day
by night.

AND CATHOLIC PRESS
LOUDLY ATTACK ROOSEVELT
FOR HIS RECEPTION OF MA
SONS IN ROME.

Paris, April 3.-Roosevelt's recep-
ton of the Free Masons during his
stay in Rome has called forth criti-
cism from a section of the royalist
and Catholic press. The Gaulois says
the incident justified the precautions
adopted by the Vatican for it indi-
Gates that Roosevelt probably would
have received the Masons after his
audience with the pope, and had such
an audience taken place, passing the
Vatican to the Masonic chiefs, it
would seem as If it was with the ap-
probation of the sovereign pontiff.
The Eclaire: Roosevelt, with the
vengeance of disappointed
tourist ana Furnishing an ungrateful
papacy sby bowling down before the
idol of Masonry" The paper follows
with a long and violently worded at
tack with a special dispatch from
Vienna, in which the claim is made
that the government there has adopt
ed extraordinary precaustions to pre-
vent Roosevelt making breaks SINH

start, probably about five, and a few
others will be dropped after the work

PHILIP MILLER AND GEORGE
VAN PELT REACH AMICABLE
AGREEMENT ON PROPERTY IN
DISPUTE WITHOUT COURT.

Seattle, April 8.-Philip Miller
and George Van Pelt and his wife
Victoria Van Pelt, who have been in
a legal squabble in Judge R. H. Lind
says department of the superior
court, this morning decided to make
an effort to settle their trouble
among themselves Miller is an
aged pioneer of Wenatchee who came
to Seattle about five years ago with
$4,000 and proceeded to buy and
sell land. He had dispute with his
wife and went to live with the Van
Pelts. He made Van Pelt his agent
to transact business for him, and he
claimed that Van Pelt bought prop
erty and had the deeds made out in
his own name. Then he had a re-
Cancellation with his aged wife, and
sued to have the property returned
to him.
BY the agreement reached this
morning and sanctioned by Judge

in view the establishment of a plant
of the same character as the one in
Tacoma in this valley. The plant Is
operated by electricity and employs
IL men, and very ready sale was
made for all the products of the
plant.
This valley Is going to ultimately
use a great deal of thing. The TIL
ing will be used in the sewer work
and in irrigation and Mr.. Linville
believes that instead of spending the
money out of the city for this, that
it should be spent at home, and it
is to this end that he made his trip
to Tacoma to investigate the latest
machinery in thing making.
Should the plant be established It
will be on his ground and adjacent
to his concrete block plant.

MISSIONARY lay
MEN MEET
LARGE MEETING AT SPOKANE
TODAY-LOCAL MEN THERE
DISCUSSION FROM THE Pull.
PITS SUNDAY.

Missionary laymen are meeting in
Spokane today. What is known as
the Laymen's Missionary movement
was started about three years ago
for the purpose of interesting bust
ness and professional men in some
special phase of missionary work
and the attempt was followed by
success from the start.
Gatherings have been held in the
large cities and the one at Spokane
is designed to get the men of the
northwest together.
Local Men Went.
DR.. Stevenson and Rev. John w.
Johnson, P. P. Holcomb, William
Grant, Howard Thomas and w. A.

learned.

On Sunday the reports of the
meeting will be given from the

NEW PHASE Of THE VATICAN INCIDENT
Valuable Mountain Side.

Herman Degenhart's deed to some
of the valuable CD mountain side
that has been brought to the atten-
ton of the public more than once
was filed with the county auditor yes
terday. Charles Xix and wife are
named as the parties of the first part
and the deed was dated May 1, 1909.
1t is not clear why Mr.. Degenhart
should have gone to the expense of
filing his deed, as the property has
been a grim joke in this neighbor-
hood for some time. 1t is in the
rocky mountain part of section 8,
range 81 and township 81. The at
tention of the public has been called
to the worthless character of the land
more than once and there has been
some cases in court about it. Nearly
all the land around Malaga is valu-
able and some of 1t is as good as
can be, but that particular section 3
is a dangerous factor for the coun-
try's development on account of the
attempts made by INSCRIPTIONS par
ties to sell it OF for good apple land.

This is the judgment of the senate

man Lodge today introduced in the

In presenting the bill Senator
Lodge said:

"The question of the public health

committee has no doubt, however,
that a limitation of the time during

hygenically of very great value and
would tend to check many physical
troubles, which are thought by those

Ancient Beanery Going South.

Ancient Beanery Going South.
Under the spreading Welcome
arch sticks the beanery, where mid
night folk were wont to go for sink
ers, pie and coffee until the last few
weeks. The old railroad restaurant
was being moved by Jack O'Connor
but the arch was a foot too low to
let the bean house pass. He tried
to lower the wagon wheels by dig
ging out beneath them; and then
decided to raise the arch. The poor
old apple got some more knocks and
doubtless will not even look like
strawberry the next time 1t is light
ed. From the arch the doughnut
warehouse will be taken down to
point on Wenatchee avenue near the
bridge, and will there be converted
into a sort of grocery store and soft
drink emporium.

MAKE KEEPING MEATS N
COLD STORAGE A CRIME
Bill introduced in the Senate Limiting
Time 1t May Be ept--Senator Lodge
Believes This Has Much to Do With
Cost of Living as Well as Health

who have examined the question, to
be attributable to the practice Of
keeping meats, particularly, in stor-
age for very long time.
Mr.. Lodges bill will provide that
food kept in cold storage for more
than one year should be considered
as adulterated, and that any food
taken out of cold storage and err
roneously marked as to the time it
had been in storage should be re-
garded as misbranded in violation of
the pure food law.
Cost of Living Investigation.
The committee through Mr.. Lodge
also asked the senate for instructions
in the matter of continuing the in
vestigation to the cost of living. 1t
was estimated that four months
would be required to complete the
work and that it would necessitate
an expenditure of $4,000.
Mr.. Lodge told the senate it prob
ably would be impossible to gather
the desired data within less than four
months and in response to question
from Senator Hale, said probably it
would be impossible to present a
complete report during the present
session.
Mr.. Hale spoke in appreciation Of
the fact that there was a likelihood
of even a partial report during the
present session.
