Okanogan County Man on
Trial on Charge of

Ously setting fire to underground
and inflammable material near the

OKANOGAN HARD HIT
Raising of Land Valuation by the
State Board Means Increase
in Taxes.

Conconully, Wash, Oct. 10.-The
action of the state board of equaliza-
ton in Juggling the railroad assess
ment and raising land valuation in
Okanogan county has brought upon
their heads a storm of disapproval
and condemnation. The county as
SCISSORS returns show an increase of
20 per cent in valuation over that
of last year, which, in the opinion
of the assessor and other we'll
posted authorities in county values,
is nearly so per cent of the aggre-
gate actual value of all property in
the county.
1t is evident that the state tax
commissioners presume to fix values
for the whole county on evidence OBJ
tanned from sales of land adjacent to
towns commanding big prices and
prices paid for railroad rights of
way.
From a SO per cent ratio to ac-
tual value last year this county is
allowed but rs per cent in one year,
when conditions are practically un-
changed, and the lowering by the
state commissioners of the railway
assessment from $S3S,S57, at which
figure it stood for two years, to
$54O,3O9, their figures this year, a
reduction of $493,54S, are matters
which require investigation.
Attorneys will be requested to
ascertain if any recourse can be had
from the action Of the state officials,
and it is not improbable that the
matter will be threshed out in the
supreme court.

CLIMBED OUT Of
CITY JAIL
Second Delivery of County
Prisoners During
Summer.

Another county prisoner escaped
from the city Jail last evening, this
being the second delivery during the
summer. The escape was made from
the same hole in the roof as that of
last summer, though but one pri-
soner escaped last night while four
secured their liberty last summer.
The freed prisoner was one of the
Spaniards brought to the city last
week from Cashmere as a result of
his conviction for stealing the buggy
robes belonging to DR.. w. G. Parker.
The escape was made by climbing
the trellis work to the roof in the
southeast corner. From there
board was lifted and the prisoner
worked his way out between the
joists of the roof and dropped down
from there to freedom.
On account of the fact that the
county bastile is not finished, county
prisoners have been kept during the
summer in the city Jail. There were
four other prisoners in the Jail,
Frank Jungers, convicted at Leaven-
worth of selling liquor to Indians;
two DRINKS, city prisoners, and the
other Spaniard, who was sentenced
from Cashmere along with the one
who escaped. The man escaped last
night about o'clock, and so far he
has made good his getaway.

Saves Revolutionary Oak.

New Rochelle, n. "a giant oak
tree, noted for the part it played in
the revolution. has been saved
from destruction by John H. Trever,
a dancing master in New York in the
days of the early generation of the
Vanderbilts. The old oak. which is
at Mayflower and North avenues,
stands in the middle of the street,
and was to have been cut down to
improve the thoroughfare.
Trever, who owns the land on
which this historic tree stands, has
decided to New Rochelle strip of
his ground 20 feet wide and 100
feet long, which the city can utilize
in place of the land on which the oak
is situated. This does away with the
necessity for cutting down the tree.
The street as now planned will be
20 feet wide, and the oak will be
surrounded by curbed flower bed.
This is the tree in which one Of
the Deveau family hid when he was
pursued by a pose of patriotic far
mers in the early days of the revol-
ution. The Deveau, who were Tories
owned a large farm in North avenue.
which was confiscated by the state
of New York when they fed to Can
ada After the establishment of
peace the farm was presented by the
state to Thomas Paine

TELLS Of APPLE
ORDERS
Head of Gibson Fruit Co.
Tells Chicago Packer
More of Pool.

n. G.. Gibson, head of the Gibson
Fruit company, who purchased the
big apple pool of the Wenatchee Val
ley Fruit Growers Association, has
the following story in the Chicago
Packer of this week:
IN. G. Gibson, head of the Gibson
Fruit company, says it's a gay life
selling western box apples now. So
far Mr.. Gibson reports orders from
various large operators in eastern
territory and he declares that if they
keep coming after apples as they
have the past few days it won't be
long before he will be cleaned out,
although he qualities this statement
by saying he has some real nice fruit
left.
LAS an illustration how the east
ern trade has been taking hold, Mr..
Gibson stated: From various New
York, Philadelphia and Chicago
iiOuSCS We nave UOOhCo vi
ders aggregating over 500 cars OF
Wenatchee apples alone When ii
is considered that this fruit runs
over $1,000 a car, We begin to get
an idea of what the deal involves.
But besides the Wenatchee fruit. we
have been selling Hood River, Ore,
stock and also apples for two Idaho
concerns, the Payette Fruit Packing
company and the Nampa Fruit asso-
citation. These total over 200 cars,
ana, all told, our fruit sales so far,
that is western box apples, amount
to more than $1,00O,OOO. l believe
that we can say with pardonable
pride that it is the biggest apple deal
already in the history of the fruit
business in this country, or any 9th
er for that matter. We are pleased
to say for the benefit of the trade
generally that We are highly graft
fled the way the western box apple
deal is turning out.

Water. water everywhere and not 9
drop to drink,
So Wenatchee people say when they
stop and think
OF the real estate that's moving
In the water they are using.
And again there's typhoid fever and
there's ague and some worms,
And for a place called Leavenworth
the men of our town yearn.
But do | blame them? l don't think
Such complications call for drink.
Oh, Wenatchee is a sumner with her
apples at the fair,
But when it comes to sandy water
as a booster I'm not there.
Let l will coach her ever on
When her muddy water5s gone.
Good people of Wenatchee, let us
help the Mayor true,
To get a good big pumping plant and
soak our city through.
You say, do we need it? | should
say We do,
And if you live on Okanogan, you
would say so, too.
The Mayor of the city lives on Okla
hogan, too;
You had better get some water that
he won't have to chew.
And a sewer in that neighborhood
please forbid,
For that's the only street in town
where the monstrous ricks are hid.
Now, think it over, friends and foes,
We may get good water yet, who
knows?

The Women to Blame.

Santa Barbara, Cal, High prices of food are due as much to the extravaganza of American women, as to the avarice of the tarif-protected trusts, according to E. P. Ripley, president of the Santa Fe railroad. Mir. Ripley has just issued a commentary on the present wides spread strike against high priced meat, in which he beneficial result of teaching wasteful housewives a in economy,
 "The general increase of wages and the rapid increase of money circulation are among the causes of high prices, said Mir. Ripley !" but extravagance is the para mount issue. Most housewives pay three or four times as much for foods done up 1n fancy pack ages as for the same foods with out the trills. And they won't go to a store or market if they lean have telephone, The tele- phone adds to the cost of living for thousands and so ten per cent which the grocer has to add to his prices to cover the cost of delivery. This is a land of great wealth, which has been develop ed in excess of the needs of the people, and a halt is inevitable.

The Box Social the Social Event
 of the Season.

Wetzler's hall on last Wednes- day evening was the scene of much jollihation on the part of those who were so fortunate as to be in attendance. The ladies, whose efforts for Holbrook to have a successful and active Sun day school were behind the affair, and that they succeeded to an undreamed of extent is attested by the fact that the exchequer of the Sunday school now has over $10O to its credit, and that those who attended were made to feel a hearty welcome and a feeling of good fellowship was manifest throughout the entire evening. There was short program, the main feature of which was the singing Of MT. Johnston, whose voice is exceptional. The fun commenced when Mir. R. s. Tee pie. hereafter called Teep, started to auction off the lunch boxes pre- pared by the ladies, each contain ing sufficient delectable eating" to satisfy the inner man. That Teep was there with the goods Tn that line can be judged by the many hearty laughs of the audi ence and the amount of funds in the treasury, which stands as q towering monument in honor of his ability as an auctioneer- Through his efforts the affair was made such glowing success after the audience had assembled Coffee-hot-and just like mother used to make. was served with the lunches. Everyone, including those budding speculative gnan- ciers, whose reckless bidding for lunches reminded one of starva- tion in it's last stages, got their moneys worth.

Comet Not Halley's.

Flagstaff, Ariz, Jan. 22.-The luminous body now visible to ob- servers i'll various parts of the country IS a new comet. It IS known as Comet A of 19lO.'
 It closely resembles the great comet of 1882.
 The new celestial body was re- ported by Dr. A. I. Innes of the observatory of Johannesburg, South Africa, on January 16.
 An analysis of the photograpic observations made here shows that the new body differs greatly from comets in general.
 The usual comet consists of very bright series ot hydrocarbon bands, but the comet now visible shows very light hydrocarbon bands with a pair of intensely bright sodium lines. The strik- ing orange color of the comet head, as observed in various parts of the country, is said to be due to incandescent sodium VapOr.
