Bic RUSH soon To
BEGIN
Holiday Shopping Late in
Getting Started on Ac-
count of Weather.

Incoming freight TO Wenatchee
has been arriving in unusual guam
titles continuously during the past
three months. Various explanations
are being offered. Chief Shipping
Clerk Sheffield in the local freight
office is of the opinion that mer-
chants were encouraged to send heavy
orders for fall and winter stocks
just as soon as the certainty of a
bumper crop was known. He also
believes that business must have
been good with the merchants OF
shipments would not have continued
SO uniformly heavy.
1t has been suggested that bust
ness men may have been preparing
for a possible railroad strike which
is threatened to take place next
month. When some of the merchants
were asked regarding this explana-
ton they told the Daily World re-
porter that they did not even know
a strike was being talked about.
One merchant frankly stated tina,
business has not, been as good as he
anticipated in view of the money
that has come into the valley from
the sales of fruit. He was inclined
to explain this by making the bad
roads and warm weather responsible
for light trade.
Indications are that within a day
or two there will be a big holiday
rush which will keep all hands busy
up to the last minute before Christ
mas.

VACANCY IN Sec
0ND WARD

There is some speculation already
as to who will be appointed on the
city council from the Second ward
TO fill the vacancy occasioned by the
resignation of Mayor-elect Halbert,
who was elected for the two year
term from this ward.
1t is likely that Mr.. Halbert will
file his resignation at the last meet
ing of the council this month and
will be installed as mayor at the
first meeting in January.
w. r. Wilson is the councilman-
elect from the Second ward and II
will be up to the new council to ap-
point the successor to Mr.. Halbert.
F. C. Lemon and w. e. Mosley
were both candidates in the city pri-
maries from the Second ward and II
is not unlikely that one of these men
will be elected as successor to Mr..
Halbert. m sx@, .,iIs., :,

TRAIN 43 TURNED
TURTLE
Serious Wreck at Ponga,
West of the Summit
Yesterday.

No. 4, due here last evening at
4:20. did not arrive until about
a. m. this morning, owing to a SER
ious derailment near Ponga, west of
the summit
No. 43 passed through here at l
a. m. yesterday and, with the excep-
ton of the sleeping cars, turned
over on its side. Derricks and
wrecking equipment had to be Sc
cured in order to place the train on
the track again.
The accident was due to the
spreading of the rails on account of
the very soft condition of the road
bed caused by the incessant rains of
the past several weeks. Fortunate
ly no one was injured.
1t was expected that the wreckage
could be cleared up in about two
hours, and No. A., due here at ago.
was at first reported but several
hours late, but finally did not reach
here until this morning.

HANDICAP FOR
NEW CITY
CLERK
Registering Women oVters
May Result in Serving .
but One Term

Charles H. Wildberger, the newly
elected city clerk, will go into office
with very serious handicap, and
one which will probably result in his
defeat at the next election. In fact,
this handicap is so very serious that
it is doubtful if any city clerk will
hold office as long as the retiring
clerk, Sam r. Sumner.
Under the new law allowing wo-
men the right of suffrage, it is up
to the city clerk to register the wo-
men voters and in doing so it is nec-
essary to ask them their ages and
other impertinent questions.
Mr.. Wildberger is himself quite
bashful and it will be necessary for
him to have an assistant on whom
he will try to shoulder the work of
registering the women voters. w.
T. Knapp, who may continue in his
present position as deputy clerk,
would make an ideal man for inquir-
ing into the age OF women and ask
ing the other necessary questions, as
he is not ut all bashful and Cor years
served in a city railroad ticket Of
flee where men become accustomed
10 answering and asking all kinds of
questions.
Even granting that Mr.. Wildberger
should secure a clerk with nerve suf-
ficient TO ask the necessary questions,
yet the office is under serious han
dicap and the Daily World prophesies
all kinds of serious trouble for the
clerks office during the next year
or anyway until the female portion
of the voters become accustomed to
the necesst. of answering to the
questions as to their ages.

SPLIT. BRITTLE, DULL HAIR
All Come From Dandruff, Which is
 Caused by q Germ..

Split hair, hard hair, lusterless hair, brittle hair, falling hair, all owe their origin to dandruff, which is caused by measly little microbe that burrows into the scalp, throwing up the cuticle into dandruff scales and sapping the vitality of the hair at the root, causing the several diseased conditions of the hair till it finally falls out. Modern science has dis covered a remedy to destroy the dandruff microbe, which is combined in Newbro's Herpicide, the delightful hair dressing. Allays itching instant ly and makes hair soft as silk.

The Graphic's Weekly
 Cotton Letter

The Cotton Market experienced sharp break this week on liquidation of accounts following the winding up of the bull campaign of the season just past.
 Reports of improved weather con- ditions in the Southwest accompanied the slump, but were not considered to be responsible for it.
 According to the most trustworthy advices the situation in Texas is still serious as the deficiency in rainfall for the past two weeks in the South western part of the State has caused a practical failure of the crop in that section. In the Eastern and North ern parts fair crop is looked for, but the yield for the entire State is not generally expected to be much if any in excess of last years even un- der most favorable conditions for the remainder of the season.
 In the states east of the Mississ- ippi the crop is holding it's recent inn provement, and only an early frost would materially cut down the yield estimated by the government in it's laest report.
 The fact that the spinners of the world are practically bare of supplies makes it probable that prices will not have any material decline from the present level as the latest conserya- tive estimates indicate crop of not more than twelve million bales which in the opinion of prominent trade in- terests would make the staple worth better than thirteen cents. Of course any further deterioration or reduc- tion of the yield would enhance it's , value.
 We therefore consider it advisable to buy cotton on the weak spots. Latham, Alexander & Co.

BROWNL OW'S ESTATE
VALUED AT $4,000
Left in Trust to Go to His Children
at End of Twelve
Years.

BRISTOL. Tenn. August 13.-The will
Of the late Congressman Walter P.
Brownlow of the first Tennessee district,
probated in the county court at Jones'
boro, Tenn. reveals that he has left his
entire estate in the hands of trustees
for a period of twelve years. but the
will provides that the estate shall ult-
mately be divided among his children,
with substantial equity. his widow being
generously provided for In any event.
The estate, which consists of real and
personal property, largely represented in
the stock of the Johnson City Traction
Company, in which he held controlling
interest. is believed to be worth not less
than $4,000.
Gov. John P. Smith. of the mountain
branch of the National Soldiers Home
are named as the trustees and executors.
1t is provided that in the event either
Of these trustees should die or remove
from the state, Chancellor Hal H. Haynes
the event of another vacancy it will
devolve upon the chancery court to fill
the vacancy by appointment.
The board of managers OF the Soldiers
Home and Gov. Smith of the home, by
reason of the fact that the electric road
owned by Mr.. Brownlow enters the Sol
diers' Home reservation. have taken the
view that this would prevent Gov. Smith
from acting as a trustee or the estate,
and for this reason he has declined tc
serve. While the vacancy falls to Chan
cellor Haynes under the terms of the
will. it is not known whether he will
serve, but in the event he does not he
will nave to appoint a man to fill the
vacancy caYed by the resignation OF
Gov Smith. Gov. Smith. it is under
stood. declined to serve because of some
possible conflict of interests between
the electric railway and the home.
