What Constitutes q
Newspaper Subscriber

\ court decision has lately been
rendered in Massachusetts ON what
constitutes subscriber. The Judge
firmly believed that the man who
received the paper, although he
never subscribed for it, is entitled
to pay.
James Thompson moved and
William Robinson took immediate
possession and received and ac-
cepted a weekly newspaper that
was delivered to him through the
mails every week. The good ma
tured editor sent accounts frequent
ly, but no attention was paid TO
them by Mr. Robinson.
Finally there was a day of recl-
oning.. Robinson had received
the paper for some time, he in
formed the collector, but he said he
never subscribed and declined 70
pay for it. The Judge personally
questioned the defendant, who said
that he had read and made use of
1t and was receiving the accounts
which were frequently inclosed in
the paper.
Judgment was rendered in favor
OF the newspaper. The Judge was

Nothing Like 1t

There is probably no place on
earth better than a newspaper office
to learn how many kinds of people
there are, says Pierson Gowa) En-
terprise. Some get hutfy if state
ment is sent, others will not pay
until they receive statement.
Some will pay without statement
others will not pay whether a state
ment is sent or not. Some thought
they owed more and others thought
they didn't owe so much. Some
say they can't get along without
the paper and others say it don t
amount to much. But the meanest
subscriber in the list is the man
who takes it until he is shut off for
nonpayment and then spends half
his time in explaining how he use
to take the thing" but stopped it
because it was no count.

FOUND DEAD' NAN
N COLUMBIA
Had Been in the Water a
Long Time-No Marks
of Identification.

A. C. Brazil, who lives south Of the
city, telephonei Coroner Saunders
late last night that there was body
of dead man floating in the Sim
mons eddy. Early this morning DR..
Saunders, accompanied by Underta-
ker May, drove to the eddy and took
the man from the water. The body
was very badly decomposed and was
entirely nude with the exception of
a pair of shoes and a portion of a
leg of his overalls. Hhe flesh and
scalp of the head had been entirely
removed and it was with difficulty
that the body was placed in a casket.
DR.. Saunders deemed it unnecessary
to hold an inquest over the body, as
all clews as to the identity of the
man had been removed by the action
of the water.
This is the third body that has
been taken out of the Columbia river
within the past month. One was
taken out of an eddy near Chelan
and another one in the Simmons

Business Man FavOrs Setting Apart
Special Day Some Time in
the Fall.

John F. Weber, of the Breese-
Weber company, favors the setting
apart of special day by Wenatchee
in the fall of the year, to be known
as Apple Day.
He has seen results in Colorado
from Melon Day and Potato Day, and
thinks that Wenatchee would do
equally we'll with an Apple Day.
Rocky Ford, in Colorado, has a
Melon Day, a holiday, when the peo-
pie come from great distances, with
special railroad rates, to feast on
melons given free.
Potato Day, at another Colorado
town, is celebrated with a barbecue.
Other towns in Colorado grow
good melons and potatoes, but the
two towns that have the special day
always get the best results in the
markets. The advertising derived
from the picnics does the work.
Mr.. Weber thinks that If Wen
atchee does not take the lead pretty
soon it may have to follow a lead
from Yakima.

Can Handle G. A. II.

Wenatchee, Wash, July Editor
Daily World: I noticed an article
in your valuable paper Of yesterday
by I. P. Ferrin in regard to enter
tanning the G. A. r. in 1911, and will
say that I believe that Wenatchee
can do it, for / have learned since
coming here that what Wenatchee
undertakes to do, it does it. When
Vancouver, Washington, entertained
the G. A. r. in 1905, l was resiiing
there, and Vancouver did not have
the population at that time that We
natchee has now, and l do not be-
lieve that if Wenatchee took in the
same amount of territory that Van
couver does, that the balance sheet
would show a larger population at
Wenatchee than at Vancouver today,
besides we have larger hotels and
more of them and more rooms, and
l believe that we can entertain the
G. A. R. and 1 believe we ought to
do it, and that we ought to give them
the best that we can give, because
they are entitled to the best that we
can give No tents for them, for they
have served their time in tents and
on the ground.

Costs Less to Ride i'm Pullmans Now

Washington, D. c., July Re
duced rates on Pullman car berths
are to go into effect today in sew
eral sections of the country. The
reduction is due to the recent order
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, which also refused an applica-
ton from the Pullman Car company
to postpone the date for putting the
reduced rates into effect
In a number of cases the commits
sion found that the rate of the COM
pany for the lower berths was not
excessive, but in every instance the
practice of the company in charging
the same rate for the upper berth
has been frowner upon, and much
lower price has been ordered to be
put into effect.

PARED FOR WAR
Japan Would Grab Islands
Before We Could Say
Jack Robinson.

Chicago, June 3O.-Brigadier Gen.
eraI Cobb Fl. Smith, retired, who re-
Gently returned from a tour of the
world, sprang an unpleasant surprise
on his colleagues in the army and
navy when he said in an interview
that the United States was wholly
Iunprepared for war.
Discussing the possibility of a war
with Japan and the probable out
come of such war, he said:
Il think there is a possibility of
such a war, but if it comes our army
is wholly unprepared and our navy
is by no means ready. | hope to
heaven such a war will never come.
not want war. But l believe that the
best way to prevent war is to be pre-
pared.
Now, how about our army? The
people won't let us have enough SOL
diers to be of any use. If war comes
with Japan, the japanese would
grab the Philippines and Sandwich
Islands before we could say Jack
Robinson. We have not enough of
an army to hold those islands and
we would have to send our troops
1000 miles to get them there. Once
we lost our Pacific islands we could
never get them back
LAS for the navy, our ships are all
right, but our idea of battle is very
different from the Japanese idea.
They are as fanatical as Moslems and
believe that every soldier killed in
battle goes straight to heaven. They
think nothing of sinking a ship. The
men would go to the bottom singing
'Hosanna.' Why, if an American
general sacrificed his men as the
japanese commanders slaughtered
theirs at Port Arthur he would not
be a general Is minutes.
Thank heaven, there is little
probability of war. To be sure, the
people of the west coast are bitter
toward Japan, but Japan has her
hands full with Korea just now and
is in no financial condition to under
take another war.
Then, too the statesmen of the
two governments are getting to I'M
derstand each other pretty well and
any trouble that comes up is pretty
sure to be settled by diplomacy"
