MRS,HART THREAT.
EMS SUICIDE
Ignorant of Recent Tragedy,
She Thinks Husband
Has Deserted Her.

Mrs. Currie Hart is being watched
by the nurses at the Wenatchee Gen
eral hospital She continually asks
for her husband. Aldie Hart. and is
told he cannot be found. She has
come to the conclusion that he has
deserted her This has very de-
pressing effect on her mentally, al
though her wound is healing rapidly
and she will soon have SUFFICIENT
strength to be discharged from the
care of the doctor and nurses. Mrs.
Hart insists that she will take her
life if Aide Hart does not come to
her. She says she will not live with
out him.
The matron of the hospital, Mrs
Egbert, and DR.. Mccoy. the attending
physician, have decided to turn the
woman over to the police when she
is ready to be discharged from the
hospital. In their opinion she is
mentally unsound, dangerous both to
herself and to society, and should be
cared for by the state.

said today he hoped TO he able to
announce the population of Minnea-
polls, Seattle and Boise, Idaho. be-
fore the end of the week. These
were among the cities mentioned as
having returned inflated figures. He
said in none of these cases was the
padding comparable to that OF Ia
coma. The additions in Minneapolis
were almost insignificant, he said.
Many protests are being received
from Tacoma, but the director is not
yet prepared to make response to
them.

Spokane, Oct. 2o.-There will be
no supreme bench judiciary ticket
upon the democratic column of the
official ballot in the coming election.
Chairman Thomas A. Scott of the
democratic county central committee
announced today that the nominees
of the nonpartisan judiciary ticket,
which was Endorsed by the state con-
vention of the democrats at Tacoma,

RECORD SHIPMENT
YESTERDAY
Forty Two Cars Of Apples
Sent Out-50 Per Day
From Now On.

Forty-two carloads of apples were
shipped out of Wenatchee last night,
40 cars going east and going west.
This is the record shipment for the
year so far. but it is expected that
the shipments for the next two weeks
will average close to SO cars per day.
The growers are taking advantage
of the fine weather to get their ap-
PIES off and into the cars. The fall
has been a good one for handling
the apples, yet it is realized that a
change of weather may come at any
time and if the crop is not marketed,
work might be seriously inconveni-
enced.
Colorado was covered with man
tie of snow yesterday, ranging from
3 or inches to s feet on the sum-
nit, and it is not out of reason that
stormy weather might be encounter
ed here at any time.
The roads leading to the city are
in better shape than they have been
for a number OF seasons, owing to
the fact that the main thoroughfares
are being sprinkled regularly.
Seattle Glutted With Apples.
The following local story was sent
out from Seattle and is of local in
terest here:
A peculiar situation prevails in
the apple market. Commission men
can obtain all the apples they need
on track here at from % to so cents
per box less than growers in East
ern Washington are asking.
Shipments of unsold apples to Sc
attic have been on a large scale and
are largely responsible for the pres
ent condition of the market. accord
ing to we'll posted commission men.
The general tone of the apple mar
ket is weak, although commission
men declare many growers are re-
fusing to let their fruit 80 at pre-
vailing prices. Large quantities of
Wenatchee apples have been shipped
East on consignment and this. it is
said, has been why Eastern buyers
have refrained from purchasing out
right in the Wenatchee valley. Yak
ina growers. 1t is stated, have on
the whole been more inclined to dis
pose of their fruit at market prices.

DONORS TO PUBL.
CITY FUND
Business Men and Growers
Are Uniting in Pledg-
ing Big Fund.

Wenatchee is responding very lib
orally to the publicity fund. Some
few weeks ago the local committee
secured pledges to the amount of
$2,700 and the work stopped there.
but since the meeting of the Com
mercial Club Monday night, new en-
thusiasm has been aroused and not
only are tho business men of the city
but the growers as we'll, are respond
ing nobly to the call for funds.
Some time ago it was considered
that $500 would be required this
fall for the campaign Of publicity. a
part of this to be used fer booklet
and the rest for exhibition purposes.
Yesterday and today committees
have been out in the city and valley
and have been very kindly met, with
the result that $4,000 or $500 will
be secured before the week is over.
The city committee Yesterday and to-
day secured $1,000 in the city and
the country committee $500. The
city committee secured $3.50 this
morning. making a total pledged of
about $4,000.
The following is the list Of doners
to the fund as secured by the COM
mittee several weeks ago. The do
nations will be published as soon as

It's purpose. in addition to the
storing of gasoline and serving as
wireless ground" was to keep the
balloon steady, compromising for the
expansion and contraction of gas due
to changes in temperature, which
would have made the America rise
and sink erratically.

The Americas experience proved
that this floating tail, jerking at the
delicately poised airship. made it i'm
possible TO steer or make Roadway
in the desired direction and severe
~ weakened the structure. To find
another means of compromising for
this unavoidable change in the vol
ume of gas is the problem to which
Wellman and his engineer, Melvin
Vaniman, will now devote their at
tention.
The direct cause of abandonment
OF the America was exhaustion OF
the supply of gasoline. which had to
be thrown out to save the ship.

Hand Bruised.
Wellman tried to grasp rope
thrown from the Trent and the rope
got twisted about his hand. Before
he got loose it nearly tore off his
little finger and badly bruised the
rest of the hand. The comparative
unimportance of the injury. however,
was demonstrated by the fact that
as Wellman said this he held cigar
in his bandaged hand and was not
obliged to let the member rest in a
sling. The other members OF the
Americas crew said they felt as well
as ever, and they looked it. -
