SLOW PROGRESS IS BEING MADE
IN CLEARING THE G. N. LINE
PRINCIPAL EFFORT DIRECTED
TOWARD RECOVERING DEAD.

The local Office of the Great North
ern railway received information this
morning that the relief party work
ing towards Wellington from this
side failed yesterday to make the
progress expected. The rotary and
workers have been unable to advance
beyond Berne, which is five miles
this side Of the tunnel. The slide at
this point was anticipated to be not
over Is feet in depth, but when work
began the avalanche was discovered
to be from 40 to so feet in depth and
covering large surface. The rotary
was unable to operate because of
the excessive depth of the snow, and
the right of way was being cleared
mostly by blasting. Enormous guam
titles of powder are being consumed
at that place.
Superintendent O'Neil, being in
charge of the relief forces at Well
ington, is devoting his entire time
and attention to the relief of the un-
fortunates. He states that only such
work is being done now as is neces-
sary to open up approaches to the
scene of the disaster, and this work
will not be completed for at least
eight days yet, while the line will
not be open for traffic between Spo-
kane and Seattle before April 1.
Body of Snowslide Victim Received.
The body of Fred Johnson, one Of
the three track walkers who was
killed in the snowslide east of the
Cascade tunnel, was received this
morning by the Wenaschee Undertake
ing company.
The face and trunk were badly
crushed, but the body has been we'll
cared for by the Great Northern rail-
way people.
Considering the limited facilities

TIES MET SATURDAY NIGHT
COMMITTEE TO MEET WITH
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

The Board of Associated Charities
met Saturday night and took up the
matter of securing donation of
$3.50 from the county commissioners.
The board has had number of
heavy expenses and has been obliged
to call upon the churches and fra
ternal organizations for assistance as
well as upon the county commission
ers. A committee was appointed to

committee and will look after every

appointed to take charge Of every
thing received for the women. All
the other women in the organization
are assistants to Mrs. Gray, and all
the men in the organization will as
sist Mr.. May in the matter of collect
ing and receiving donations.
Guilford MARI, Mrs. Harriet Gray
and DR.. J. H. Blake were appointed
a committee to secure room for the
uses of the society. The room is
needed particularly for the purpose
of storing the donations as they
come in, prior to being distributed.
The committee that was to have
reported on the results of the circu-
lar letters sent out recently to the
various churches and fraternal Or
ganizations for the purpose of solic-
iting aid was not ready to report and
the matter was laid over until the
next meeting.

PRESIDENT COIN ANNOUNCED
OF THIS CITY-PLAYERS WILL,
ARRIVE MARCH %.

The Indians will train at Wenat-
chez. The fruit city wins in the live
ly bidding contest between four
cities, Lewiston, Idaho, and Dayton,
Asotin and Wenatchee, Wash.
The announcement of the final de-
ciSion of the Indians executive,
President Cohn, was left to Lou Nor
dyke, the veteran first .baseman, who
returned Thursday night from a
weeks trip to his ranch near Cash
mere, nine miles from Wenatchee,
and a conference with the Wenatchee
business men.
Describing the Wenatchee PROPOSE
ton, Mr.. Nordyke said:
"Mr. Cohn did not hesitate an in
slant when I told him Wenatchee's
proposition. I believe it is quite the
best ever offered a Northwestern
league team by any city in the north
west.
1--WE will have hot and cold water
shower baths right on the grounds
in a club house now under construc-
ton. The park itself is one of the
finest in the northwest, and i don't
except the magnificent fields of Spo-
kane, Tacoma and Vancouver. 1t is
big, level and firm, lots of room for
batting practice and hard and fast
enough for splendid infield work
Hot and cold water connections
will be in the rooms of the new We
natchee World building, where we
will make our headquarters. This
hotel is brand new, and will make
us special rates that brought Joy to
-. COINS heart"
Percy Sehebie, of the Recreation
Park association, stated to the World
this morning that the association

CHISTIC COLORS.

The contest between the Blues and
the Reds for supremacy in the Com
mercial club membership race reach
ed high pitch today. Both sides
are endeavoring to name the color
that will appear at the top of the
World sign tonight. New members
are being added every day and the
committee is feeling confident now
of greater success than it was ex-
pecting at the start.
A visitor from the east recently re-
marked that the cream of all the
boosters in the United States had
been skinned and set down in Wen
atchee. The spirit of he present
contest is endorsing that remark and
when the trustees meet tonight 1t Is;
thought that the count of the appli-.
cacions will show total membership
in excess of all expectations.

The big Notification by the local

1t is the desire of the local men,

resented here.
1t is not possible at the present

AFTERNOON.

The Wenatchee Military band is be-
ing brought into readiness for the
summer season. For three Sundays
now the boys have been meeting and
practicing hard Yesterday they met
again at the council chamber and
worked throughout the afternoon.
The spirit of harmony in the men
will go far toward keeping the band
in its high place among the musical
organizations in the state.

the company has at its disposal in
terested persons are inclined to give
the company great deal Of credit
for the consideration that was shown.
A temporary grave was made at the
slide and a cross put at the head OF
1T with the mans name written on
1t and the date of his death, March
/, 1910.
Funeral arrangements will be an
nounced later.
Railway Faces Dire Condition.
The wrecking of the four big cleo
trio motors has completely crippled
the system by which the trains were
taken through the tunnel. Mechanics
on the ground do not believe that the
motors can be replaced within six
months.
Until they are the Great Northern
will be obliged to go back to steam
transportation through the big bore.
With one rotary at work west of the
tunnel It is impossible to predict
when the line will be opened so that
coal can be sent to the stalled plows
in the blockaded district.
The Mansfield line has been opened
up and the service is being resumed.
The washouts have been repaired and
Wenatchee will have one more train
a day than it has had for several
days.
General Manager Gruber, who has
charge of the work of clearing the
tracks in the Cascades, walked from
Leavenworth to the tunnel Saturday,
a distance of 80 miles Three or four
lumber jacks were with him. He re-
ports that the slides are deeper than
he expected. Instead OF being 80 or
40 they are 80 and 100 feet deep.
This makes the progress OF clearing
the tracks less rapid than 1t other
wise would be.
Yesterday morning at o'clock
train Of outfit cars. several cars or
provisions, car of dynamite and 20
linemen passed through the city on
their way to the summit.

Indians Train in Wenatchee

was compelled to make a guarantee
of nearly 500 in order to bring the
Indians to Wenatchee. At least $500
will be required to meet the living
expenses of the players and between
$500 and $500 for the installation
of bath and club rooms on the
grounds. OF course, the equipment
will remain as permanent improve
ment at the park, to be used by our
local team, but the coming of the
Spokane sportsmen is directly res
ponsible for the improvements.
The players will arrive about
March rs and active practice will be
started at once. Lou Nordyke says
that Wenatchee fans will have an
opportunity to witness some games
of more snap and excitement than
many OF the regular schedule. The
reason Of this fact is that many of
the players can hold regular jobs
with the team only as a result of
the record they establish during this
practice season. The value of a man
can be determined only in hard
fought games, and for this reason
practice will consist not only of bat
ting up flies and singing grounders,
but actual games will be arranged.
Some % men are expected to come
with the team, thus affording ample
material for two strong league base
ball teams. The Wenatchee team
will also be called upon for a game
or two with the Indians and this
contest win probably be the most
interesting ever seen in this city.
To reimburse the directors of the
park association for the heavy guar
antee they have made, it is planned
to issue season tickets to the public
at $3.50 each. These tickets will
admit the holder to Recreation park
throughout this training season at
all times, both for games and prac-
tice. A canvass of the city for sub
scriptions to these tickets will be
made at once.

Another Blue Bird on the Avenue.

The pelican in the window of
Frank L. Jones, on Wenatchee ave-
nue., has been attracting a lot of at
tention. The bird was shot some
years ago by o. D. Johnson, on Moses
lake. Pelicans are so rare in this
country that the handsome specimen
in the jewelry store window, decked
out in the colors Of the commercial
Blues, is creating much interest.

Barber Shop Has Wireless Service.

Whalen's barber shop, on Wenat-

that informs the patrons whether the
Blues or the Reds are ahead. The
light from the World sign is reflected
from the windows of Ardron's hall,
across the street, directly into the
shop and the red or blue letter can
be plainly seen.

HOW | MADE
MY HAIR GROW

/ was greatly troubled with dand-
ruiz and falling hair. | tried many
advertised hair preparations and var
Ious prescriptions, but they all sig
nally failed; many of them made my
hair greasy so it was impossible to
comb it or do it up properly. |
think that many OF the things tried
were positively injurious and from my
own experience ! canno. too strongly
caution you against using prepara-
ioii containing wood alcohol and
ether poisonous substances. | believe
they injure the roots OF the hair.
After my long list OF failures, final
J.. found a simple prescription which
can unhesitatingly state is beyond
doubt ,hC most wonderful thing for
the hair | have ever seen. Many
of my friends have also used it, and
obtained wonderful effects thcrefrom.
1t not only is powerful stimuant
to the growth OF the hair and for
restoring gray hair TO its natural col
or but it is equally good for remov-
ing dandruff giving the hair life and
Drilliancy, etc, and for the purpose
of keeping the scalp in first.class con
dition. II also makes the hair easier
TO comb and arrange in nice form. |
have a friend who used ii two months
and during that time i, has not only
stopped the falling of his hair and
wonderfully restored all OF his hair
to its natural color. You can obtain
the INGREDIENTS for making this Won
derful preparation from almost any
druggist The prescription is as fol
lows:
Bay Rum, Coz. Menthol Crystals,
- drachm; Lavona de Composee, .
Oh. If you like it perfumed add a
few drops of To-Kalon Perfume, which
mixes perfectly with the other ingre
dients. This, however. is not neces-
sary
