Baton, Rouge. La.


Consolidating the forestry ronscrvA-
ton work and the game conservation
work IS now proposed, and, according
to Il report here. is favored by Chair
man Miller Of the game commission.
The two works, it is argued, 90 hand in
hand. The preservation of the forests
is closely allied with the preservation
Of the game. for it is necessary to have
the forests if the game Of the state is
TO be saved. At the present time the
work is carried on by two different
departments. The register Of the state
land office is made cX-otlicio state for.

HOUSED MANY A

OLD CITY JAIL, A REMNANT OF
WENATCHEE'S PIONEER DAYS,

The old city Jail, remnant of
Wenatchee's palmy days, when booze
and criminals were alike plentiful, is
today being moved by O'Connor &
Parrish from its site on the alley
back of Mission street, to across the
track. 1t has been purchased by
O'Connor & Parrish and will be used
as a store room.
The old Jail is a relic of pioneer
days. 1t was built just prior to the
completion of the Cascade tunnel and
has housed many desperate criminals.
Time after time the Jail has been
filled to capacity, from to 20 men
being it's limit, and among these were
men charged with all characters of
crimes. In the days within the men,
DRY of a majority of the present resi-
dents this old bastile has housed the
drunks who have been gathered in
by the vigilant police officers. Be-
fore it was finally abandoned by the
city and the new jail built the most
T, desperate of the criminals were Ia
Zen to the county Jail and it was
used simply as an abiding place for
the drunks who were gathered in by
the officers and awaiting trial. 1t has
been set on fire time after time and
the wonder is that it has not been
burned to the ground. Could it speak,
many a tale of criminal carnival could
it reveal. Desperate men employed
on the construction work of the Great
Northern drifted down to Wenatchee
and after filling up on bad booze
were taken in by the officers and
made inmates of this house.
A new regime has been inaugu-
rated in Wenatchee and the old
Jail, like dozens of others of the old
pioneer buildings, are giving way to
more pretentious structures and the
relics of the pioneer days are fast
passing away.

The committee is composed of John

as heartily in favor of a change of
location for the postoffice as he could
readily see that the present building
is far inadequate to the needs of a
city like Wenatchee. The committee
has several sites in view, but it seems
to be the disposition to urge proper
ty owners having sites to come for
ward and make bid for the location
and the matter will be formally de-
cided later on by the department at
Washington on the recommendation
of the inspector.
Mr.. Davis in speaking of the kind
of room needed for the postoffice in
this city, said: 1--WE need a room
containing about 5000 square feet,
completely equipped with furniture
and fixtures, heat, light and a safe,
