Was Main Building.
This building has been known as the
main college building for the past 10
years and until the new main building
was completed a year ago. In March,
1891, this building was thrown open as
the college and remained the only build
ing for about three years, when the
shops and afterward the science hall
were built. 1t was built of brick, two
stories in height on concrete founda-
ton and with a basement which was
formerly used for the preparatory de-
partment.
Many of the most prominent men in
the Mesilla valley received their educa-
ton in this building, among them being
Oscar c. Snow, Fabian Garcia, w. A.
Edward c. Wade, jr, L. w.
Case and others. The building, when
completed, cost in the immediate neigh

The loss of the band instruments will
be one that VIII be severely felt, as the

s The college boys worked valiantly
and heroically in saving the adjoining
buildings, remaining on the roofs with

structure was most intense. The roof
and the partition walls in the burned
building collapsed, but the outside walls
were still intact at an early hour this

STATE IRRIGATED
LANDS
North Central Washington
Given Prominent Place
in Publication.

George NJ. Allen. deputy commits
sioner from the bureau of statistics
and immigration, connected with the
secretary of states office, spent some
time in Chelan county last year
gathering statistics for booklet
which has been published by the
state entitled, The Irrigated Lands
OF the State of Washington"
There is no question but that this
will be extensively used by all boos-
ter irrigationists in eastern Washing
ton. 1t is handsome publication
embellished with fine half tones,
printed on good paper and shows a
very accurate knowledge of the sub
jects selected. In the foreword is
the following statement:
'It is quite within the range of
possibilities that the products of the
irrigated lands of Washington will
in time exceed in annual value the
present output from our combined
timber and cereal producing areas.
Inasmuch as the forest and grain
products aggregate not less than
100000 in value each year,
this statement might at first thought
be viewed as one born of undue en-
thusiasm. Regarded in the light of
the facts, however, it would appear
conservative.
Careful authorities have estimated
that the total irrigable lands of the
state exceed 100000 acreas in
area, of which not more than twen-
ty-five per cent have thus far been
reclaimed. With this entire area
productive to secure a yield of
500, 100000 in value annually
would require only an average of
$50 per acre-an amount far below
the returns from lands now irrigated
and which have reached the produc-
ing stage"
Among the cuts used in the book
let is a full page panorama Of the
Wenatchee valley, Long View ranch,
Mike Koran and his Buick automo-
bile, an Entiat scene and an upper
Wenatchee scene.

GOOD DANCING AND
PICTURES
Good Vaudeville and Life
Pictures Seen at the
Wenatchee.

Fancy dancing stunts make the
feature of the vaudeville act at the
Wenatchee this week. Mack & Ben
ton, a team composed of a young
man and a pretty girl, furnish de-
lightful entertainment by their
songs, jokes and terpsichorean trip
pings.
Mr.. Mack's limitations were espec-
tally good. The swell COON going
out to spend the evening, puffed up
with self conceit, then returning at
8 a. m, still trying to be swell,
but staggering all over the sidewalk
brought down the house with laugh
ter and applause.
Miss Mack is pretty girl and
knows how to use her attractiveness
to best advantage. Her dresses were
especially admired by the ladies.
One Of the moving pictures was
most thrilling. young wife is seen
in her home so engrossed by the
reading of her novel that she has
no time to give attention or. be af-
fectionate to her husband and little
daughter. The latter go down to
the public bathing beach where he
finds a pretty girl with whom a fir
tation is begun. Meanwhile the lit
tie daughter wanders along the surf
beaten sand, finally going to sleep
on a boulder. While she slumbers
the tide rises and completely sur
rounds her.
The little ones disappearance is
at last discovered and an exciting
search begins. Her shoes and stock
ings are discovered and the distract
ed father and mother return home
heart-broken. Finally bather
makes the rescue and brings the
little one home where there is great
rejoicing.

Excursion to Spokane.

Mike Koran suggested getting up
a large delegation to take in the
Apple Show newt Thursday. He felt
positive that Wenatchee is going to
win the sweepstakes prize and that
the ribbon will be placed on the eX-
hibit by Wednesday. He thought a
big crowd should go to Spokane,
march up the streets, take in the
show in a body and let everybody
know that Wenatchee is on the map.
His talk created much enthusiasm
A motion was carried that the mat
ter be arranged and an announce
ment of plans will be made later re-
garding the matter.
A telegram from Secretary CO.
burn, was read. He said that there
is keen competition for the sweep
stakes and that the main contend
ers are Hood River, Ashland and We
natch6e.
Mr.. Marley, of Leavenworth, was
introduced and stated that the Com
mercial Club of his city was soon to
give minstrel show which would be
put on for two nights. A third night,
Monday, Nov. 2Sth, had been en-
gagged for Wenatchee, when the show
would be repeated in the Wenatchee
theatre. A cordial invitation was
extended to local members to pat
ronize the entertainment. He was
assured by President King that the
show would be well attended by We
natchee people.
Announcement was made of the
second event of the Commercial Club
Entertainment Course which is a
concert to be given on Thursday
evening in the theatre by the Ger
trude Goodwin Miller company.
Every ticket sold will add that much
to the net profits which will go to
the club.
Season tickets at $3.50 each, good
for the remaining three events, are
on sale at the theatre box office.

Meeting of Club Last Night
May Result in Big
Celebration.

Furnish the Great Northern with
a large quantity of cheap booklets
to distribute to passengers an hour
before trains reach this city.
Have Qualification under Com
mercial Club auspices every once in
a while. Make it extremely popular
with old fashioned dancing, such as
the Virginia reel, quadrilles, etc.
Get up some methods of exposing
notorious stock-selling schemes.
Secure some large sign painted
boards, about Sx30 feet in dimen-
sions, bearing advertising about We
natchee. Set these up near the rail-
road track at Malaga and Cashmere.
These were some of the sugges-
lions offered by members and read
at the club meeting last night. The
one presented by r. S. Ludington
created the most discussion. He IA
vored placing printed slip in every
box of apples going out Of this val
ley. This little piece of printing
should tell where the apples are
grown, what are the varieties ana
when is the best time of year to
use each variety; what are eating
apples and what are cooking apples.

boxes could be used to put up some

WiImerOth Talks.

c. w Wilmeroth, manager of the
Rogue River Valley Fruit Growers
Association, was introduced AL
though now identified with the Ore
gon district, the former fruit buyer
was not backward in saying that
Wenatchee produces the highest
quality of apples of any section in
the world. No other valley, said he,
can grow rs per cent of its crop ex-
ira fancy. That is being done in the
Wenatchee valley year after year.
An interesting description was
given of the Meiford Association.
The organization covers the entire
Rogue River valley. which is sixty
five miles long. There are twelve
loading stations. The association is
governed by fourteen directors whose
expenses are paid to attend the reg
ular monthly meetings. The capt.
tai stock is held by the growers
themselves. Some difficulty was ex-
perienced in switching from the Cali
fornia grading rules to the Wenat-
chez rules. The latter are by far
the best, but are not easy for val
leys to use where the percentage of
extra fancy is so much less than

HUGO and the Barber.

When Victor Hugo lived in Paris In
the Palais Royal he used to be shaved
by a barber named Brassier A friend
of the poet asked the barber one day
IL he was busy. II hardly know which
way to turn" was the reply. 1--WE
have to dress the hair of thirty ladies
for soirees and balls" And M. Bras
sier showed the list to his friend. A
few days after the friend returned and
inquired about the thirty ladies. "Ah,
monsieur" said the barber, sadly, Il
was not able to attend half the num-
ber, and have lost many good Gus
toners through NJ. Victor Hugo" 1t
appears that the poet when about to
be shaved was suddenly inspired and
seized the first piece of paper he could
find to write poem. Hugo hastily
left the shop with his unfinished
verses, ON the back of which were the
names and addresses of the thirty la.
dies, many of whom waited in vain
for their coiffeur.
