Hank Dobbs was noted as an hon

about horse. He would merely sup
press the truth. incidentally he al.
ways beat the customer who dealt
with him. The way he could slur over
the defects and buzz about the virtues
OF an animal amounted TO genius.

neighbor a horse that had an eye
which was nearly sightless. The neigh
Dor knew Hank would not lie outright
TO him. SO he questioned the horse
trader as TO the various points OF the
brute.

eyes fairly scintillating with sup

carried him too far. The deal was

TO CLIMB GLACIER
PEAK
'MOUNTAINEERS'' TO MAKE AS
CENT in JULY-FOURTHH HIGH.
EST PEAK IN STATE IN CHELAN
COUNTY
The ''Mountaineers

The "Mountaineers" will under
take the ascent of Glacier Peak this
summer. says the Chelan Leader.
Attorney c. E. Rusk received a let
ter last Sunday from the secretary
of the outing committee of that or
ganization stating that this decision
had been arrived at. AMI asking such
information and advice as Mr.. Rusk
who has state wide reputation as
an experienced mountain climber,
could give.
The ascent will be made during
the latter part of July and the first
of August, and the whole trip will
require four of five weeks time.
The present plan OF the outing COM
mittee is to bring the party in by way
of Leavenworth and Wenatchee Lake
and by wagon road and trail to Buck
creek pass, where the main camp will
be established, and return, after the
ascent has been made, by way Of Rail-
road creek and Lake Chelan; but Mr..
IRusk will endeavor to induce the COM
mittee to change it's plans and make
the ingoing trip from this direction
and thinks he can do so for he will
be able to show the committee that
although the trip by rail and steamer
is much longer from Seattle to the
point where the overland trip is be-
gun. the pack will be much shorter,
easier and cheaper.
The "Mountaineers" is one OF the
two leading mountain climbing organ
izations of the northwest and main
tains headquarters at Seattle. There
Is a large membership and it Is ex-
pected that party of from fifty to
one hundred will undertake the trip
this season. The organization has
been in existence for a number Of
years and many OF the members are
experienced mountain climbers.
They have made many expeditions in
to the rugged mountains Of the north
west from Oregon to Alaska, but
they find on the formidable ice-bound
mountains at the head of Railroad
creek some new experiences in noun
tain climbing.
Glacier Peak is the fourth nigh
est mountain in Washington, its ele-
Walton being something over 10000
feet, and it earned its name from
the numerous great glaciers which 1t
supports on every slope of its rugged.
rocky sides. Unless the season is
unusually favorable, these glaciers
offer many perils to the venturesome
mountain climber, and render the
ascent of the mountain very hazard
ous.

KHAKI BOYS ENTER

SPANISH WAR VETERANS ENTER.
TAIN G. A. II. AND LADIES OF
w. r.. C.-REMINISCENCE AND
BANQUET ON RATIONS.

The Spanish War Veterans cele-
b%Ated the anniversary Of the great
days fighting in the Philippines on
the fourth Of February, 1900, at the
commercial club last night.
The G. A. R. and the ladies OF the
w. r. c. were present to enjoy the
friendly, happy spirit that was the or
der of the evening.
A well arranged program preceded
the banquet. Mr.. Meyer began with
an address on the Battle of Santiago
and Mr.. Mosier, representing the
older boys of the G. A. R. spoke next
Miss Downing played several piano
solos that were heartily encored, and
Miss Margaret Stoddard made the hit
of the evening singing "Tenting To-
night on the Old Camp Ground" An
unusual musical number was John
Compton's whistling solo with guitar
accompaniment.
After the regular musical program
some rocky" attempted to blow the
mess call on the bugle but was not
in practice. The attempt was recog-
nized, however, and everybody rushed
for the cook-tent.
There the regulation army fare was
served, although the rations were
considerably larger than Uncle Sam
used to think good for mans
health. Messrs. Hooking & Fitch, OF
the Home Tea company, got patriotic
and were responsible for the coffee.
Besides coffee and hard tack, the
menu consisted Of beans, pickles ana

become too stiff to squat in the good
old army way, although a few who
never did fatten up again since the
days of service. including c. H. Arm
strong, were able to get down onto
the floor and eat in the old time way.
The Spanish War Veterans have
been organized In Wenatchee only
a little more than a year and have
an enrolment of over 80 members.
Their reunion last night was highly
successful, everyone had a good time,
and the atmosphere of the old camp
life afforded pleasant "reminiscences
that none of the boys would have
cared to miss.
