THIS is MY 43RD BIRTHDAY
Bishop Nuelsen.

Bishop John l.. Nuelsen of the
Methodist Episcopal church. was born
in Zurich. Switzerland. January 10,
1867. He is the son of the Rev.
Henry Nuelsen, who was sent from
America to Germany as one of the
founders of MethOdism in that coun-
try. Bishop Nuelsen was graduated
from Drew Theological seminary in
1890 and later studied at the Uni
versity of Berlin. He entered the
Western German conference. became
pastor at Sedalia, Mo-, and was af-
terward transferred to the Northern
German conference. He was made
professor of ancient languages at st.
Paul's college at Warrenton, Mo. In
1899 he was made professor of the
ology in Mast Theological seminary,
at Bearea, Ohio, which position he
held until he became a bishop last
year. In 1901 DR.. NuelsOn served
as one of the American delegates to
the Ecumenical conference in Lon
don.

What these blamed Egyptians
want, said he, is to clean up this

want to build some solid streets. I'd

STATE ROAD THROUGH WENAT.
CHEZ.

Wenatchee will welcome the plan
outlined by Governor Hay for the
construction of state roads He
would have two trunk lines cross the
state, one to follow the course of the
Columbia along It's lower course to
the point where it makes ietour
northward and from thence to Walla
Walla and Spokane, the other to ex-
tend from Spokane to Seattle by way
of Wenatchee
The governor takes a sensible view
in advocating the construction of
trunk lines and in opposing the piece
meal methods that have been fol-
lowed heretofore. The suggestion of
the governor will doubtless receive
the hearty endorsement of the good
roads convention, which will meet at
Aberdeen in February, and a weight
of public sentiment will be aroused
which will lead to the formation of
definite plans for entering upon this
work.
Since the governor has given Off
cia1 endorsement to the proposal, iel-
egates from North Central Washing
ton should be present in force at the
good roads convention to see to it
that the road through central Wash
ington be included in the project
The growth in population in this re-
that the need of well constructed
road is a public necessity With the
introduction of the automobile, trips
to Spokane or Seattle on a good road
way from here would be of frequent
occurrence.
However, the greatest benefit that
would accrue from the construction
of trunk state highways would be
the incentive that would be given to
road improvement in the local areas
through which the trunk lines will
pass. Each locality would strive to
make its roads conform in plan and
construction to the state road, and
in consequence cheaper tranSpOrta
ton as result of road improvement
would tend to stimulate production.
Interest in improved highways is
growing and the convention at Aber-
deem should result in the crystalliZa-
tion of some definite projects.

Engineer Ward submitted plans for
the proposed new sewer This plans
as drafted includes all of the hill dis
trict in the west part of the city. The
council, however was unanimously in
favor of including the entire city in
the bond district and the matter was
passed up to next week for further
action.
The same action was taken on the
matter of establishing a new i'm.
provement district in the west por-
ton of the city. 1t was thought best
to take in more territory.
The matter of furnishing the new
city hall was discussed and was re-
ferred to the public building commit
tee with the clerk and engineer to
take up this matter with the commit
tee from the commercial club.

The test of party loyalty which
President Taft has been forced to
make by reason of factional warning
within the party is sensible one. He
has become measurably stronger in
public opinion since he made it. From
now on strict watch will be kept
to ascertain what members in our ma
tional' legislature are friends of the
president. The president has out
lined a plan of constructive legisla-
ton which was promised in the re-
publican national platform and which
he has laid before congress in his
special messages. 1t is the duty OF
every loyal republican to give un-
qualified support to the presidents
legislative program.

A GOOD PRECEDENT.

A report from North Yakima says
that a minister and brewer got into
the voting out of saloons in Pendle-
ton was the cause of some vacant
business rooms in that city. These
men, instead of bullyragging and
ndjamming over a question which
could not be settled except by resort
to carefully ascertained facts, de-
cided to settle the controversy by
going to Pendleton and together
make an investigation of conditions.
These men have set a good ex-
ample to those who feel that they
are divinely called to save the cOun-
try by argument. 1t is surprising
how little there is to any controversy
when well ascertained facts are at
hand, how many misconceptions can
be dispelled and how much i'll feel
ing and misunderstanding can be
avoided. But some men are not sat
isfied unless they can get an adver-
sary down and then pummel him I'M
til life is extinct.

result of definite knowledge and nc

A large and enthusiastic audience
greeted the appearance of Joe and
Ola Hayden at the Wenatchee last
night. Miss Hayden and her father
do not do what you term a vaudeville
act 1t was far from such, but as
Mr.. Joe Hayden walks to the foot
lights to introduce himself AMI
daughter, a thrill seemed to pass
over the audience. Miss Hayden Is
known the world over for her most
sensational offerings on the stage.
Mr.. Hayden is great song writer as
well as a singer. He wrote the Eagles
national hymn and all the big hits
of the Elks' songs.
Many of the audience, men as well
as women were in tears for the first
ten minutes of their appearance, but
they soon turned the tears into laugh
ter and glee when they closed their
part of the entertainment in singing
one of Mr.. Hayden's songs, "There'll
Be a Hot Time in the Old Town To-
night"
Miss Hayden had many friends in
the audience last night who had
heard her in the eastern cities. She
will sing several of her fathers
songs this week. Most all of Mr..
Hayden's songs have been great hits

soALDs WIFE WHO TARRIEs
She is Seriously Burned With Hot
Tea for Stopping to Chat
With Neighbor.


New York, Jan. 19.-Mrs. Thomas
Roman of 224 East Seventy-fourth
street went out at 7:45 o'clock last
night to get her husband pail OF
beer to go with his supper. On her
way back she stopped in the hall to
talk with a neighbor.
Roman was waiting for his supper
and the beer and when he heard his
wife's voice in the hallway he was
angry.
Bring up my support" he called
Your supper is on the table," she
answered. I'll be right up with
the beer"
When she entered the kitchen
door her husband seized her, she
says, and, holding her, poured ket-
tie of scalding tea over her head,
breast and right arm. Then he
walked out without his supper.
His wife's screams brought the
neighbors and policeman, and an
ambulance took the injured woman
to the hospital.
