UNITED STATES
ENGINEER
HERE
ID. G.. HENEY, CONNECTED WITH
THE, UNITED STATES RECLAIM.
ALTON SERVICE, SPENT SOME
TIME IN VALLEY.

D. c. Heney, consulting engineer
of the United States reclamation SER
vice and at one time head of this
service, has spent some time here
during the past week or ten days.
Mr. Heney has given up most of his
work for the government and with
the exception of few days each
month his time is devoted to his own
private practice. 1t is said that his
object on this trip was to secure con-
troll of the local electric companies,
but it is believed that he was not
successful in this. Mr.. Heney, how
ever, gathered a great deal of data
regarding this section of the country
and he made a trip to Moses coulee.
This trip, it is beheevd, was under
the direction of the Brown Electric
company, of Entiat. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Heney is the consulting en-
gineer of this company which is to
put in a $250.000 electric plant at
Entiat.
Frank Mexican made the survey for
big pumping plant to be installed
on the Columbia river by which the
coulee could be watered and power
for pumping to be supplied from the
Entiat plant, and it is believed that
it is the object of Mr.. Heney working
under the direction of the Brown
Electric company, to proceed with
the survey at the point at which Mr..
Mexican left OF. The principal diff
culties with the Mexican failure was
in the ability to get the land owners
to subscribe for the contracts.

w. III. HALLING RETURNED LAST
NIGHT FORM A WINTER Elk.
PLOTTING ARCADIA LAND IN
THE EAST.

w. H. Halling, formerly secretary
of the Wenatchee Commercial club,
returned last night accompanied by
his wife, from a winter spent in At
lantic Coast points, Philadelphia be-
ing his headquarters. Last Deem
Der Mr.. Halling left for the east in
company with the F. E. Goodall APP
pie exhibit which was taken from
this valley to be used in advertising
Arcadia Orchard lands. Mr.. Halling
states that this is one of the great
est publicity movements ever in
augurated in the west 1t has been
the means of educating the eastern
ers to Washington and incidentally
has also been one of the greatest
land selling projects ever inaugur-
ated. Thousands Of acres of Area
dia land have been sold as a result
of the campaign. which has been
conducted principally from the large
Atlantic points.
Mr.. and Mrs. Halling are back
for the purpose of packing up their
household effects, and in the course
of few weeks will go east again,
where Mr.. Halling will be connected
with the land selling department of
the Arcadia proposition.
TIVE weeks ago the apple exhibits
were discontinued but will probably
be revived again this fall A full
carload of Washington. literature
was distributed by the Arcadia peo-
pie, including Great Northern, Nor
thern Pacific, Big Bend, Wenatchee,
Cashmere, Palouse, Walla Walla and
Hood River literature.
In the Philadelphia exhibit alone
there were on an average of 1000
or 5000 people per day and most
of these took away with them liter
allure. In the New York exhibit
there were $4,000 people per day
in attendance and naturally a cam
paign of this character would at
tract the fasteners to the west.
Mr.. Halling also states that the east
is growing west crazy and he antic-
ipates a great movement during the
year towards the west, especially
now from the fact that the fruit
crop of the eastern, central AMI
southern states have been destroyed
by the recent colds.

has anything to do with this the
World is unable to say. A. short time
ago it was stated that the desire Of
the Great Northern officials was that
the wagon road be changed from the
west side to the east side of the Col
umbia river. This met with consider
able opposition on behalf of those
living in Chelan county, who thought
that the Great Northern should still
leave a good wagon road on the west
side. The last survey that is being
made is located closer to the river
bank than either of the two other
lines now on the east side of the
river. The North Coast surveyors
are also at work along the river AMI
there seems to be no doubt but that
there will be a big fight on between
the two roads for this territory.

COLUMBIA STREET
PROVEMENTS
-FOUR BIG BUILDING PROJECTS
UNDER WAY BETWEEN PAL
OUSE AND YAKIMA-COLUMB
STREET GOES UNNOTICED.

Columbia street goes unnoticed in
the rush Of the city's growth. Four
large building projects are under
way that draw slight attention from
the people on the avenue.
In recent issues of the World men.
ton was made Of the laundry build
ing and the Wells & Morris ware
house. In addition, the Wenatchee
Milling company are building up an
other story and the warehouse of
Leroy Wright will soon have another
story ON. Carpenters are busy now
and the masons are expected by to-
morrow. The work is being fastened
all it can, as the roof has been re-
moved and there is only slight pro-
lection from the elements. 1t is
thought that the work will be COM
pleted in a month.
Milling Company Building.
The milling company are replacing
the old cupola with another story
and will increase the capacity of the
plant by about one-third. New ma
chinery is being installed, and a lot
of preparations made for the confing
business.
Wells & Morris warehouses are
getting well along and the laundry
building is assuming proportions that
boosters. Mention of it has been
made several times before, but as the
structure grows and it's great size
becomes more and more apparent it
calls for further comment. The
question is often asked, Where will
enough laundry business come from
to warrant such plant?" The pro-
prietors say that they are more con-
cerned about how to handle all the
business rather than how to get it.
There are innumerable neighboring
towns where there is no laundry SER
vice whatever, and the management
is contemplating an automobile SER
vice to bring in the work. A unique
feature of the second floor is the
window space that has been allowed.
Around three sides the windows will
be put in in an almost unbroken
pane of light, so that the second
story will resemble a conservatory.
The stack must go rs feet higher
yet and the contractor states that
$1,000 would not pay to tear it

in c. C. Griggs' Pullman. The first
days trip was up the Columbia to
Orondo, where crossing was made,
thence up the Corbaley canyon to
Waterville, on through to Dyer and
Brewster, a distance of rs miles. On
Saturday morning the party left
Brewster, going to Okanogan, thence
to Conconully, Loomis and by way
of Spectacle lake to Oroville and
down the river again to Riverside. a
distance of 1852 miles. On Sunday
morning the start was made from
Riverside, the party journeying on
to Okanogan, thence to Brewster and
Pateros, and the night was spent at
Methow. Monday from Methow the
trip was made to Twisp, Winthrop,
back again to Carlton through the
Antoine coulee to Chelan, arriving
there at 5 o'clock. On Tuesday the
party left Chelan about 8 O'Clock
and arrived at Wenatchee at noon,
very well pleased with the trip.
Mr.. Edwards states that the mem
bers came back thoroughly converted
TO the merits of the Pullman auto.
There were several punctures but
these were remedied in a very few
minutes and otherwise the machine
gave absolutely no trouble. The roads
are not in their best and are very
trying to the ordinary auto, but the
Pullman demonstrated its class in
this trip.

HAVE SPENT 100000 ON
CANAL IMPROVEMENTS
Work Done This Winter Has Made the
Wenatchee Canal One of Most Sub
stantial Waterways in West---Flumes
Replaced by Tunnels and Pipe Lines

of the tunnels the canal will be ready
for the water for this seasons sup
ply.
Necessarily the first work was more
of the temporary order, but as the
years have gone by the work has
been replaced by that of substantial
character and the owners of land un-
der the big ditch need never have
any doubts of ability to have water
when needed during the irrigation
season. The canal now has a ca
pacity for thousands of acres more
than has been sold, and it is expected
that during the coming season added
territory will be brought under wa
ter on the east side of the river and
by pumping plants on this side of the
river.
Local Engineer.
The engineering work on the canal
during the past year has been under
the supervision of Clifford Chase, and
it was stated yesterday that in the
running of the long tunnels, when
work was rushed from both sides,
that when the bore was broken
through the alignment was perfect
and that there has not been a vari-
ance of a fraction of an inch. The
construction work in charge of l.. P.
Horton, who has been with the COM
pany for years, shows fine workman
ship.
Work Exceeded Estimate.
The first work done on the We
natchee canal was in June, 1902, and
water was delivered on Sunnyslope
the coming summer and in the fall
on the Wenatchee fat. The estimate
Of the work was s135,000, but it took
$4,000 to finish the work. This
taxed the resources of w. T. Clark
and for years kept him rustling for
money. Since the completion of the
work a great deal of money has been
expended in extension work and in
general improvement of the sys-
tenn. Mr.. Clark now feels very proud
of his achievement but believes that
the Wenatchee valley will warrant
any expenditure that might be made.
While in a general way he felt sure
that this was going to make a great
apple country yet none of the pro-
jectors of the Wenatchee canal had
any idea that the products of this
valley would so far exceed that grown
in any other section.
The members of the auto party
yesterday returned to their business
better satisfied than ever in the per-
manency and stability of the great
water artery which furnishes the
nourishment and vitality for this
great valley. In the party yesterday
were: w. T. Clark, George H. Ellis,
Mr.. and Mrs. A. z. Wells, Mr.. and
Mrs. E. M. Upper, Ira D. Edwards,
T. G. Pogue, E. Plough, c. B. Hal
bert, W. S. Trimble, A. c. Dallach,
T. H. Atkinson, DR.. King, H. L.
WEBSTER, Amos Peters, George r.
Fisher, Rev. Hyatt, Lem Ward, F. NJ.

The work which has been done
during the past winter by the We
natchee Canal company was a revela-
ton to a score of Wenatchee bust
ness men, who yesterday were the
guests of w. T. Clark and left here
at / o'clock for a trip over a section
of the new canal work.
A great many people have an idea
that there is such a canal tributary
? to Wenatchee; some know that with
out the canal there would be no We
natchee. Outside of this their knowl-
edge is very limited. The party
which made the trip yesterday have
still greater respect for the genius
which devised and worked out the
problem of successfully watering the
Wenatchee valley.
The party left the Great Northern
hotel yesterday afternoon at 1 p. M,
in autos driven by George H. Ellis,
Ira D. Edwards, Harry Scheble, Percy
Clark, Amos Peters and A. 2. Wells.
The valley is in it's handsomest at
this season of the year, and the trip
was a pleasant one. Headed by the
Clark auto the start was made up
the river Above Monitor circle
was made so as to make the drive
through the Clark company orchard
of about 400 acres. In the course
of a very few years this tract alone.
belonging to w. T. Clark, will be
marketing 100000 boxes of apples.
Replace Old Fluming.
The fiuming around the Shotwell
hill in the past has caused the canal
company a great deal of trouble and
a portion of the work this winter has
been to drive big bore through the
hill. One of the tunnels is 1880
feet, another is $500 feet and still
<another is in about 1000 feet. This
(. is not quite complete, but the first
two are finished. These bores are
5xS feet in tho clear and are tim
bered complete. Altogether there
are about 1000 feet of tunneling this
side of Cashmere.
To avoid trestling, number of
deep gorges have been crossed by
syphon pipe lines. These wooden
stave pipes are sc inches in diameter.
On the canal there are five miles of
pipe line.
The Wenatchee canal is now one
of the best built canals in the west.
Fully 100000 has been expende
during the past season on improve
ments. The canal is now in position
to carry $50 cubic feet of water per
second and is sufficient for from 49,
600 to 10000 acres of land. Not
only have the bad places been obvi-
ated by tunnels and pipe lines but
the earthen parts of the ditch have
been widened and deepened and is
in perfect shape for the carrying of
the life-giving water for the orchards
of the valley.
Turn On Water Soon.
There has been delay in getting
some of the material for the pipe
line, but this will be here in a few
DAYS and with. the completion of the
pibe line and a little work on one

FIRST GAME NOT CLOSE
CHAMPS NEXT TO FIRST
Columbus Drove Around
Local Bunch.

Americas and Columbus tangled 1t
up on the diamond yesterday in the
first Of the series here. The game
was scarcely as close as the locals de-
sired; in fact, it was so far from
close that circus band wagon could
have been driven between them.
Americas was right behind Column
bus In the race for first place, the
ccurtesies requiring that the visitors
be not crowded in the triumph2l
march.
Well authenticated rumor pronounc-
ed the visitors the victors, the Off
ciaI scorer failing to stay to get the
last returns.
The locals made a poor showing and
the lemon was theirs.
The lineup was not what it should
have been, and the players evidenced
little spirit, Holden for the Valley
boys, pitched good ball and gave up
only two or three hits. Not Champ
got further than second ere the fire
went out and their side with it,
The Columbus statesmen merrily bat
ted the balls thrown at them, thus
adding greatly to the gaiety of the gem
eral situation.
Nine times their coursers speeded
around the track. This was just nine
times more than their opponents did
tor maybe it was but eight. The
scorer will please wire in the Off
cial result, that an anxious public
may know all.
While Americas played punk ball
yesterday, they will do better today.
Even the biggest of teams fall down
sometimes.

day, with Wheatley at first, Dunn at
second, Bynum third, Peddy short
