INDIANS VS.. CITY
ON SUNDAY
MIGHTY BALL PLAYERS FEEBLE
FROM SUDDEN WORK - EX-
PECT TO BE ABLE TO BEAT
WENATCHEE SUNDAY.

Pride goeth forth on horseback
Proud and gay, but cometh back on
foot
And begs it's way"
So it is with the mighty Indians.
They were gay and snappy when they
came, but the sudden work has stiff
ened up their muscles and on Sum-
day they are going to try out with
Wenatchee. 1t is thought that they
will have to go some to beat the
localities, and there is no doubt but
that the game will be a classy one
right up to the seventh inning, and
maybe to the ninth, provided they
can last.
Lou NordSke, the mighty giant Of
the major league, will play first base
for Wenatchee, because, as he says,
he wants to play on the side that
will show the greatest class. There
will also be a pitcher and catcher
from the Indian ranks who will, like
Nordyke, work for the Apple-tossers,
but aside from these three the We
natchee team will be all Wenatchee
men. 1t is not known yet who the
catcher and pitcher from the Indians
will be. Nordyke tried out yester-
day and showed class enough to play
on the Wenatchee team.
Sundays game is going to be
game that will go down in history.
Visitors will be here from Ephrata
down the line to Leavenworth, in
Guiding Wilson Creek and Waterville,
and all the other towns where base
ball is really played.
The wenatchee men who will play
in Sundays game have not been
named. Mack Wha!en is looking
over the best of the material and will
announce his selections by tomorrow
or next day.
Everything at the ball park is in
tip-top condition. The grandstand
will seat about 500 persons and COM
fort stations have been installed. The
diamond is getting into better shape
every day. At present Jack Lillis is
giving it his attention, but he ex-
poets to turn the work over to Dave
Slime at once, who will stay there alb
| the time.
The park management has been
sparing no expense and every effors
equal chance with the best parks in
the state. Expressions of approval
are being heard on every side for
the fine park that is worthy of the
| famous team.

George D. Brown returned yester-
day from a several weeks eastern
trip This was made in company
with G. P. Bissett and for the pur-
pose of floating the bonds of the
Brown Electric company in the big
electric plant to be constructed at
the mouth of the Entiat Mr.. Bis
sett was detained several weeks in
Minneapolis. Mr.. Brown reports
that his trip was successful and that
engineers of the bonding company
will be here in the course of week
or ten days to examine possibilities
of the plant. Should their report be
favorable, as is anticipated, the con-
struction work will be rushed dur
ing the summer.
Mr.. Browns engineers report that
fully 5000 horsepower of electrical
energy can be developed at the mouth
of the Entiat and he figures on the
expenditure OI udlI q mlliIOu uOlldTS
in the development of power at that
place. In the enterprises which he
has in view, most Of them pumping.
Mr.. Brown believes that the full ca
pacity of the plant will be taxed in
the coming two years.
Mr.. Brown visited a number of the
big financial centers OF the east and
found a very conservative feeling.
Moneyed men have tendency to
hold on to their money. The in
vestigations that have been started,
the corporation dissolution suits, the
railroad corporation bills proposed
and the general tendency of legis-
lation has had the effect Of playing
havoc with the investing public and
there is feeling of uncertainty as
to market conditions. There seems
to be plenty of money, yet Mr.. Brown
says that people are not investing as
freely as in the past.

c, \, BRAKEMAN
KILLED
J. Il. AMOS LOST HIS LIFE AT
MIDNIGHT LAST NIGHT IN A
DERAILMENT THIS SIDE OF
THE TUNNEL.

DR.. Saunders was notified this
morning that ]. e. Amos, a Great
Northern brakeman, was killed at
midnight last night by a derailment
two miles this side of the Cascade
tunnel. In view Of the fact that the
killing was purely accidental he con-
sequently did not deem 1t necessary
to hold an inquest. The tie up as
a result OF the derailment delayed
passenger train No. A until $3.50
this morning.
Amos was an old employe of the
railway company and his body will
be shipped to relatives In Texas. 1t
was first taken from the scene of the
accident at the tunnel to Everett on
the fast mail train this morning.
Mr.. Amos was about 33 or "a
years old and he had worked all
last summer on a work train in the
region where he finally met death.

PLANS LOCKS
At PRIEST
RAPIDS
KENNEWICK REPORT SAYS THE
NORTH COAST PRESIDENT is
DICKERING WITH FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT.

White Bluffs, Wash, March 3d.
Reports are in circulation on the
river front today that Robert E.
Strahorn and associates, who have
acquired immense water power
rights On the Columbia river at
Priest Rapids, a few miles above
White Blues, are now negotiating
with the federal government at
Washington, D. c., to establish a
lock canal on land at the rapids
The plans of the Strahorn inter-
ests call for the construction of a
large canal eight miles long, primar-
lily used as a conveyor of water to
be utilized in gigantic electric
plant to furnish power for thousands
of acres of arid land on the east
side of the river. The diversion ca
nal will be the largest in the Pacific
northwest, and will carry water to
nearly 100000 acres of irrigable
fruit land.
The construction of the canal is
necessary for the development of the
electric power, but it offers such a
simple solution of the navigation
problem confronting boats on the
river that the Strahorn interests, act
ing on the request of steamboat own
ers and residents along the Column
bia, have presented proposition to
the government, offering to open the
canal to navigation under certain
conditions.
The Priest rapids section Of the
Columbia is the one insurmountable
stretch which can not be negotiated
by steamers except in high water
and then only by the most powerful
craft, with the aid of lines to shore
The irrigation canal will permit navi-
CATION at all seasons, and the fed
eral government will be relieved OF
the necessity Of constructing its OWL
locks.

Big Surprise at the Ball Park.

The greatest surprise of the sea-
son was in evidence yesterday at the
ball park. A reporter of the Daily
World caught Jack Lillis and L
Finch at work with hoes leveling off
the ground. These men were hard
at it about o'clock last night and
state that they intend to go over the
entire grounds with the hoes. In
asmuch as these men have a we'll
deserved reputation for homework it
will doubtless require an affidavit
from the Daily World reporter in or
der to make friends of these men
to believe the story.

tricts and the growers there will also
be squads under the captaincy of the
young men who will work especially
with the younger men.
The campaign for subscriptions

as a voluntary subscription by men
who are interested in the work. The
date on which the subscription can
vass will commence will be an

preached have given encouragement
to the movement and the feeling i:
general that Wenatchee needs an as

ASKS ABOUT NEW
TOWN SITE
REAL ESTATE MAN
HAS WRITTEN TO A. A. BOUS-
QUIET REGARDING TOWNSHIP
AT COLUMBIA RIVER.

A A. Bousquet was in receipt this
morning of a letter from Chadron,
Neb. 1t is an inquiry regarding the
purported new town of Columbia
River. Some time last fall the Daily
World had several exposes of this
new promotion. There is absolutely
no prospects of town at this place
and the promoters have been doing
a considerable business among the
gullible. The letter is as follows:
Brother Real Estate Dealer:
'You will pardon my intrusion
upon your time, but 1 am seeking a
little information regarding the new
town of Columbia River the june
ton Of the Great Northern and Wash
ington-Northern Railways, Is miles
south of Wenatchee, on the opposite
side of the river-the townsite own
ed by the North Coast Land company
of Seattle and Bellingham. We are
offered lots in this town at SIS and
$25, according to the plat Of the
town. The lots are 25x100 feet,
eight blocks from the water front, as
the town is reported to be or 8
blocks from the river front.
What can you tell me about this
new town? Would you consider lots
at the prices good buys, or is the
town one of the ordinary lot sale
projects? I handle some of this
kind of stuff once in while but Sc
lect my victims, never attempting to
sell to my friends.
"Now, I want to know, and am
taking it for granted that you are
wise, being close enough to know
just what this is, and I am asking
the information confidentially and
will not quote you or your name In
any manner, only want to know just
what the scheme is, legitimate or the
ordinary new deal.
Thanking you in advance for the
information and holding myself In
readiness to reciprocate the cour-
tesy."
Secretary Coburn, of the Wenat-
chez Commercial club, wired the
Boise, Idaho, Commercial club, where
the agent of this exploiting company
has been operating, warning the peo-
pie of that section to have nothing
to do with it.

President Coin Not "TickIish."

President Cohn Not "Ticklish."
Last night, owing to the fact that
President Cohn of the Indians, who
happens to be of Jewish extraction,
had especially exerted himself at the
ball park and was somewhat sore, he
went to one of the local hospitals
to be administered to by a masseur.
A young lady nurse, who happened to
be present took charge Of Mr.. Cohn.
After examination 1t was found that
witch hazel and rubbing was about
all that was needed for the bruised
shoulder and sore muscle. While
rubbing around the shoulder the
nurse inquired:
Are you ticklish?"

CITY WILL SPEND 1913, 200
City Council Agrees on Improvement Plans for Big
District North and West of Orondo-Esti-
| mated Cost $3.50 Front Foot Under
or 10 Year Bonding System

The big story of the council meet
ing last night was in the estimates
submitted by Engineer Ward for the
new improvement district north of
Orondo avenue. Mr.. Ward submit
ted estimates on four forms of i'm
provement. The first embodies a
concrete curb with local rock mac
adam and at a total estimated cost
OF $170,633.12, or approximately
$4,97 per front foot.
The second estimate was on con-
crete curb with basalt rock mac
adam at an estimated cost of $17S,-
253, or approximately $5.19 per
front foot.
The third estimate was on a COM
bined curb and gutter with local rock
macadam at an estimated expense of
$1S5,5S4 or approximately $5.41 per
front foot.
The fourth estimate, and which the
city council instructed the engineer
to prepare resolution calling for
the proposed improvement, was on
combined concrete curb and gutter,
basalt rock macadam at an estimat-
ed cost of $193,203.92, or an ap-
proximate cost of 1888 per front
foot.
This improvement embodies the
latest in macadam. This is in three
courses of six inches. Each course is
of different size and the top layer is
fine screening, and each course is
thoroughly rolled ana the top layer
is intended as a binder. This is the
latest macadam, and it was the sense
of the council last night that in this
improvement district nothing but the
best should be used. Further, the
street crossings and alley crossings
are all of concrete. The streets are
rs, 80 and 40 feet, with a 6 foot
concrete sidewalk, with z foot
pal luS oIIlp On CdCh oluc VI w ain
