Champion Robles. Paquiro and Sera-
nito-who gave a creditable exhibition
of the Spanish sport Two bulls were
killed, the first by Paquiro and the sec
ond by Seranito. This was the latter's
first appearance in the Tia Juana
arena.
Champion Robes, in his mounted
fighting and cloak work, showed much
dexterity and was frequently applaud
ed. Nascarrero vaulted several bulls
as they charged him. One of the bulls
caught the man on his horns and threw
him to the ground. He was badly in
jured, and after that took little part
in the fights. Another cloak man was
thrown by a bull, but escaped being
gored by lying on the ground while his
companions diverted the attention of
the animal. Champion Robles also
came near being gored.
The spectators were greatly amused
by the daring of a Mexican cowboy
who rode a bull after tying himself on
the animals back.
Owing to the more than average good
condition of the roads, the trip to San
Diego by auto should be more indulged
in. The roads in Orange and San
Diego counties are a little better than
in our own county, but much good road
work is being done. The trip was made
via the coast route; and owing to rain
via coast to Oceanside, then across
country through oak-shaded highways
skirting the Rainbow mountains to
Elsinore; thence via Corona into Los
Angeles.
AS test of merit of the cars making
the trip, all the machines made excel
lent records for time and fuel. The
seven passenger Amplex made the en-
tire distance Travelled, 37S miles, in
fourteen hours running time, or an
average of twenty-seven miles an hour;
and thirteen and one-half miles per
gallon of gasoline. The running time
for the Kissel Kar was practically the
same, as the car went a few additional
miles in the down trip, taking in two
cases the longer road. The Amplex
made the run to San Diego in five
hours, fifty-five minutes, and the Kis-
sci was but seven minutes behind this
schedule. The performances of these
two cars of such different types is a
matter of comment, for the Amplex
carried seven passengers and the Kissel
four.

while none of the gears are in motion,
E and F may be easily meshed for the
low gear. These gears are chamfered
or have the ends nf their teeth bev-
eled, so that they readily slide to-
gether. If they should happen to be
in a position so that the teeth "batted,
little touch on the clutch will change
this position.

DIAMOND TIRES SHOW
STAYING QUALITIES
Local Manager Tells of Work in
GIidden Tour

The fact is pointed out by r. o.
Nelson, manager of the local office of
the Diamond Rubber company, in view
of the rather large number of tires
used on cars in the recent Glidden
tour, the Gliddenites never attempted
repairs on injured tubes or castings
even after only slight punctures, but
always changed both casing and tube.
Il venture to say" declared Mr. Nell
son, that Notwithstanding the abnor-
mally severe road conditions, the aver
age tourist could so over the whole
course of this years Glidden tour con-
test with no extra equipment other
than couple of inner tubes and Dia-
mond sleeves, or blowout patches,
making his own repairs on the road,
or, by carrying several tubes and one
or two extra castings he could make
the entire trip without the necessity
of doing any roadside work. In the
whole 1850 miles of the Glidden tour
only two Diamond tires were replaced

attached to the propeller shaft and
is kept going by the motion of the
car at its So revolutions per minute.
1t is making 166 revolutions in the same
time. It's almost impossible to slide
the teeth of a gear making SO turns a
minute into the teeth of one making
166 turns during that interval of time,
therefore we push out the clutch, ad-
vance the gears E and f out of mesh
and wait until the speed of the jack
shaft D is reduced until about the
same as that of the propeller shaft
G, then mesh H and l, giving the inter-
mediate.
In actual operation, if the clutch
doesn't "spice" and the shaft A ceases
rotating, as it should. this gear shift
ing takes but an instant, usually not
more than the time required to move
the gear shifting lever from one notch
to another
In doing this operation, one must
not be too slow, because if the clutch
is released and the shaft d allowed to
come to a stop, G keeps on making It's
So revolutions pere minute, and the
same difference in rotatiVe speed eX-
lists between the two gears we are try
ing to mesh.
The same principle applies in going
into the high. To accomplish it with
out undue noise and "clatter," the
SpGGu VI "A IIluSl NC cl4lONNu " ldll oO
that it is nearly the same as that of
G before the jaw clutch will slip to-
gether.
In dropping down from high to in
termediate and low we are up against
the reverse of this proposition. The
shafts A and G, through the jaw
clutches, are both making, say, 800
revolutions per minute. This causes
the gear f to also make 500 revolutions
per minute, but is only making 1866
revolutions per minute. What are we
going to do about it? The logical
answer would be to disengage the
clutch and the high gear, then let in
the clutch and speed up the engine
until the speed of the gear / was the
same as that of Fl, and then mesh
them, but this would be an impossi-
bility on a hill therefore the best we
can do is to declutch and make the
shift as quickly as possible. Some
times this can be best accomplished
by releasing the clutch just sufficient
ly to take the pressure off the gears,
but not enough so but what it will con-
tinue to spin" at the same time al
lowing the speed of the engine to be
accelerated.

PLANT
CALIFORNIA MAN HERE WITH
VIEW OF STARTING APPLE
PACKING PLANT-FROM HOME
OF BIG YELLOW APPLE.

Looking over local territory with
view of establishing large packing
plant here, I. w. w. Macdonald
thinks that Wenatchee offers ideal
inducements.
Mr.. Macdonald Is a member of the
firm of Mcdonald & Sons, of Wat
sonville, where the large apple inter-
ests of California center.
Packing apples is an established
science there, the apples being hauled
from the ranches by the growers, and
boxed at the packing plant, when
they are returned to the grower or
sold by the firm.
jacksonville produces $500 car
loads of yellow apples annually, ship
ping $500 cars to eastern and south
ern markets.
Macdonald & Sons have an estab-
lished business with Boston, New
York, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Gin
cinnati, Pittsburg, and the entire
state of Texas, also principal Euro
pean markets. This business will
be- brought to Wenatchee in the
event of the packing firm coming
here, as the trade is persistently call
ing for red apples, and every year
taking less of the yellow variety.
California Bellflowers usually find
a ready market in America but the
Newtowns are largely exported.
Mr.. Macdonald thinks that with
the increase of production the law of
the survival of the fittest will be felt
more and more. The London market
takes about 1000 carloads of Califor-
MIA apples and the German market is
lost on account of the tariff and
stringent quarantine.
Space for the packing plant is
available at the cannery, and from
all indications the plant will become
a reality in time for this seasons
crop.

The Y. M. c. A. campaign for the
$4,000 fund closed promptly at II
o'clock Saturday night with total do
nations aggregating $36,637. The
headquarters late in the evening were
removed from the Commercial Club
building to the Office of the Wenat-
chez Realty & Investment Comapny,
and as the donations came in the to-
tails were bulletined on the side Of
the building and promptly at IL
o'clock, when the net totals were fig
ured up and it was found that the
$35, 200 mark had been reached, the
news was communicated to the vari-
GUS churches and all the bells in the
own were set ringing. AS the sums
given were bulletined there was a
great deal of cheering, but it was I'M
til almost at the closing time that the
big donations from J. ]. Hill, the
Ellis-Forde Company and the Wenat-
chez Department Store were made
known, and the Y. M. c. A. enthusi-
asts cheered the announcements of
these gifts wildly.
State Secretary Wilcox is very cor
dial in his praise of the committee
which handled the campaign for the
fund, and states that he never work
ed with a more enthusiastic commit
tee in his life. Furthermore, he
states that it was a remarkable show
ing when a town the size of Wenat-
chez is able to raise $3.50 per capita.
The committee, on the other hand,
feels that without the aid of the state
secretary and his planning of the
work that the campaign would have
been a failure.

Meeting Sunday Afternoon.

Friends of the movement TO Sc
cure a Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation for Wenatchee met at the
Methodist chuch yesterday afternoon
to express their qualification over
the result of the canvass. Owing to
the unavoidable absence of DR.. D.
w. King, chairman of the citizens
committee, State Secretary Wilcox
presided, Special selections were
given by the Methodist choir. The
ministers present, the executive COM
mittee and captains of the differ
ent teams were invited to occupy
seats on the platforms.
After the appointment of COM
mittee on resolutions, Mr.. Wilcox
gave a resume of the movement
which started six years ago to secure
an association for Wenatchee. He
said that it was the policy of the
state committee to discourage the
formation of local associations until
conditions were such as to justify
reasonable expectations that suit
able building could be secured and
the organization be placed on an ef-
fectiye basis. It was the concensus
of opinion that had the movement

MEMORIAL DAY
SERMON

Preceding the Memorial day ser
mon preached yesterday by the Rev.
John w. Johnson, a parade composed
of members Of the Grand Army of
the Republic, Spanish-American war
veterans, members of the Woman's
Relief Corps, and daughters of veter-
ans marched from the Commercial
club hall on Mission street up Or
ondo avenue and north on Chelan
street to the First Baptist church, at
the corner of First and Chelan. They
were met at the door by the boys
cadet corps, under the leadership of
Mr.. Fowler.
Rev. Johnson, while reviewing the
memory of the deeds of patriotism
of the boys of 81, emphasized the
necessity of revival of the spirit
that animated the veterans of the
civil war. AS selfishness, political
chicanery and exploitation were the
causes of the great struggle, the pas
tor pointed out the necessity of deal
ing properly with these today so that
free institutions may be preserved
in this country.
Chaplain Spencer, of the Grand
Army of the Republic, assisted in the
services of the morning.

CHANGE SCHEDULE
JUNE 19
GREAT NORTHERN REMOVES
NATCHEE THEN-NO OFFICIAL
STATEMENTS MADE.

Feeling the need for economy in its
Spokane to Seattle branch the Great
Northern will remove two crack
trains, probably and 4, from the
Spokane-Seattle run and place them
on the run between Spokane and
Portland where the traffic is heavier
Agent Piper, when seen this morn
ing stated that he had nothing for
publication at this time.
1t is known that a local will be
put ON in the place of the overlands,
but no decision is made public in re-
gard to how far the local will run.
There is sixty miles of dead territory
with hard grades between Leaven-
worth and Monroe, and in view of the
fact that travellers prefer the through
trains to the locals it Is thought that
a local service from Seattle to Spo-
kane will not pay.
Daytime locals are so much needed
that there is a probability that trains
rs and 26 will be removed from the
night run and given new running
schedules in the daylight hours.
Private advices announce the date
for the change to be June 18th, but
nothing of an official nature can be
obtained.

been started at any time earlier than
the present, it would have failed.
"As far as results are concerned
said Mr.. Wilcox, this has been the
most successful canvass that I have
ever known. In all there were 622
gifts, the average gift being $500.
If every citizen of Wenatchee had
subscribed, the average would be
about $3.50 for the whole popula-
ton. This surpasses the record of
Eugene, Oregon, city of 10000
population which raised $4,000 in
eight days., making an average of
$500 per capita
Reports received at the noon day
luncheon Saturday showed that
s31,204 had been subscribed. Dur
ing the afternoon and evening 76
contributions were received from the
business mems teams and so from
those of the young men, which added
over $1,000 to the amount previous
" subscribed, thus making the grand
total $36,637. Since the close of the
canvass Saturday night other volun-
tary pledges have been received
from many whom the solicitors were
unable to see on account of the linn
tied time in which the canvass was
made.

Promising the next national guard
company to Wenatchee six months
ago, the matter has been dropped up

Hon. E. K. Brown,
Ellensburg, Wash.

Ellensburg, Wash.
Dear Sir: 1 have yours of recent
date and note your statement as to
the Misrepresentation of certain
Seattle and Tacoma papers question
ing my party conduct. In reply, /
would say that / do not propose to
submit the question of my republi-
canism to the decision of John L.
Wilson or John E. HUMPHREYS;
neither do I propose to submit it to
the convention called for the purpose
of nominating judges of the supreme
court. The nomination of judges OF
the supreme court should be kept
entirely free from bitter partisan
politics and should not be involved
in any way with the senatorial cam
paign. Judges Of the supreme court
should be nominated by the people
at non-partisan primary as was
provided in the direct primary law
has been called for the purpose of
nominating these judges, it should
not be perverted into vehicle to
further the candidacy either of stand
pat or progressive republican candi-
dates for the senate.
1 do not propose, as a candidate
for the senate, to engage in any such
contest in convention called for
the purpose of nominating judges Of
the supreme court; furthermore. it
is notorious that the demand for a
direct primary nomination law grew
out of control of conventions by po-
litical machines; and, of course, the
big special interests who throughout
the history of our state have been
seeking with more or less success to
dominate it's politics, will seize every
opportunity to revert to the old sys-
tenn which gave such an opportunity
to the ward boss and corporation
agent 1t is a species of political
slavism which should be guarded
against in every way possible. The
direct primary law guarantees to the
party as a whole an opportunity for
all of its adherents to vote directly
at the primary election for their
choice for United States senator un-
hamperei in any way by caucuses or
conventions. The Tory press of the
state has been filled with statements
that / had voted against the party
pledges. Whether or not I voted
against the party pledges is not to
be determined by the ipse dixit of
special friends of the Guggenheims
and Hill railroads and other big in
terests which they are seeking to
promote by special legislation. Their
object is to defeat every law which
is proposed in the interest of the
general welfare and which would in
terfere in any way with their mono
polistic privileges. They care moth
ing for party pledges or party loyal
ty. Their political methods are abso-
lutely INSCRIPTIONS has has been
demonstrated on many occasions.
Their attitude towards politics Is
|identically the same as that of Mr..
Hevemeyer, the head of the sugar
trust, who testified before a Senate
committee that he was in the habit
of contributing to campaign funds.
When asked to which party he con-
tributed, he replied:
''That depends on circumstances"
ITO which party do you contrib
ute in Massachusetts,"
ITO the Republican party"
ITO which party do you contrib
ute in New York;"
