About 30 members of the Alumni attended in a body. The High Mass of Requiem was cele- brated by Rev. George F.. Sinott the pastor and the impressive singing by the choir was augmented by the ex- pressive rendering of solos by Michael Keane of Hawleyville and John Hughes of Bridgeport The funeral procession was one of the largest ever seen in town.

A Wenatchee paper tells of the
recent organization OF the Wenat
chez Club of Chicago, with thirty
members. The club is composed Of
persons who own land in the We
natchee country and who contem-
plate going there eventually to raise
apples. There was a movement on
foot a few months ago suggested by
Secretary J. c. Skinner. of the Com
mercial Club. to form d Hood River
Club in Portland There are a great

ley and among them are numbered
some of the most enthusiastic hor-
ticulturists OF Rood River. A rat
Ting good active Hood River Club
could be organized in Portland, at
least, whether any could be formed
in other cities or not.
The greatest handicap for Hood
River doing what Wenatchee has
done in the eastern city is that Hood
River orchard owners generally move
on to their places right away and
do not stick around in their former
homes long enough to form a club.
They are anxious to get here that
they may enjoy the pleasures of the
climate and the Hood River life in
stead OF Just buying a place to work
at long distance and make fortune.
Hood River orchardists get as much
PLEASURE out of living here as they
do out of the money they make from
their crops-Hood River Glacier.

Baseball probably grew out Of the old

Some have adduced evidence that It

Probably FOUNDERS and tipcat had the

belongs to the family. An Englishman
seeing a baseball game for the first
time might very properly say, This

the old game, made rules and amended

establishment In New York. a big con-.
Germ now recognized as leader Of
Fashionable trade. One very hot sum-
mer afternoon a tall, sad, and rather
lldressed old man entered and said,
be would like to buy wedding pres
ent. He looked like needy farmer.
The assistants were tired and heated
hnd not at all cordial as the old man
passed from counter to counter, pricing
things. At last, in the silverware de-
partment, he was attended to by O.
young fellow. a new man In the shop.
who did his best for the customer.
The old man went higher and higher
IN his examination Of silverware. He
got to pricing full sets Of plate. Final
" he said: "Is that the best you've
got?" The young man remembered
that the firm had begun the manufac-
lure of specially designed. extra
heavy set of plate. The order had been
canceled, but several pieces had been
finished for show. He got out those
specimens. The old man asked how
much complete set would cost. The
assistant consulted the manager, who
said 1t would be $4,000. "All right,
have 1t made for me-" said the old
man. How much do you want to de-
posit?" suggested the shopman. "Oh,
ru pay for the whole thing and get It
OF my mind!" and he drew check
Tor the amount. The young fellow did
not recognize the signature. so he took
It to the manager, and asked II It were
good. Good for a thousand times
ffty Thousand" replied the manager.
In the Christmas season Lockhart
came back to that store. He went
right by all the bowling and scraping
assistants. and asked for the one who
bad sold him the silver plate. When
he found his man he bought $4,000
worth of presents. That assistant Is
how big man In the silver business.
