NiEIBE WATEREXpERT HERE
DR.. Leslie L. Lumsden Comes to See
What Ais Missouri River.
FIRST coNsULTs as TO EXPENSES
Part of These Must he betrayed by
the Water Board of This City,
Says the Doctor from
Warrington.

Dr. Leslie L. Lumsden Of Washington,
d. c., has arrived in the city to take up
an investigation Of the Omaha water sup
ply. His card bears the inscription, ''U.
s. Public Health and Marine Hospital Ser
vice" and the first answer DR.. Lumsden
makes to a query is that for several years
he has been one of a corps of investigators
who have been giving careful attention
to healthful water supply for cities, among
other things
As to the length Of his stay, DR.. Lums-
den is not ready to fix a limit.
"Of course. will first have TO study the
lay Of the land. That means to examine
the source of supply, see the pumping
stations settling basins and reservoirs.
How long that win take, and how much
time viii be consumed afterward In reach
ing a conclusion, cannot say"
One thing that will have considerable to
DO with the scope and thoroughness Of DR..
Lumsden's work is the matter Of expense.
The service with which he is connected
pays all his ordinary expenses, but in
making such an investigation as he has
on hand here means a good deal Of extra
expense that either the city or Water
board must stand.
uFs LnnBhetN Also COHness
The health commissioner and DR.. MillaTd
Longfeld, city bacteriologist accompanied
DR.. Lumsden to the office Of Mayor Dahl
man, where discussion was had as 70
the best method Of procedure
DR.. Langfeld reported, informally to DR..
Connell the results OF his trip OF investi
cation in the east The bacteriologist Wis
tied the plants OF DR.. John L Leal at Jer-
sey City and Poughkeepsies N T., where
the oxychloride OF lime process is IN opera
tion. He found that while the process
does not make the water absolutely pure.
II does materially improve it's character
DR.. Langfeld Is Of the opinion the ideal
system Of securing pure water win be &
combination OF sedimentation, filtration
and the use OF the oxychloride OF lime.
Until this perfect system is reached he be
lieves boiling and sterilization win always
be more or less necessary.

YAKIMA MEN BUY
FRUIT HERE
Richey & Gilbert Co. Exc
cute Order for Five Cars
Wenatchee Peaches.

Yakima, Aug. 19.-The first case
of Yakima fruit dealers handling
the product of the Wenatchee valley
! took place Tuesday, when the Richey
& Gilbert company executed an Or
der for a Minneapolis firm request
ing the purchase of five cars of We
natchee peaches, to be delivered to
that city via the Great Northern
railway.
The announcement of the sale was
made Tuesday afternoon by H. NJ.
Gilbert
With the Wenatchee peach quoted
at As cents a box, growers here can
buy them at that price and sell along
Great Northern points at bigger
profit than they can handle the
peaches of this valley. Where a
dealer of Yakima ships from here to
Spokane on the Northern Pacific and
then sends his fruit on east via the
Great Northern the freight rates are
double what they would be if the
fruit continued to roll east on the
n. P
Wenatchee Peaches for G. n. Points.
Since the Yakima Elberta is now
held at the same price as the We
natchee Elberta, 45 cents, for deal
ers to distribute Yakima fruit along
the Great Northern would be at a
loss when they can purchase the We
natchee fruit, and avoid the double
rate.
Tuesdays order from the Minnea-
polls firm calls for a portion of the
shipment to go directly to that city
over the Great Northern line, and
the remainder to be distributed at
smaller fruit markets along the
way.

CROSSED PLAINS N
1848
Spokane Woman SO Years
Old Has Not Had Sin
gle Sick Day.

Spokane, Aug. 19-Mrs. Catharine
Belknap, sole survivor of the Watts
wagon train party, which crossed the
plains from Iowa to Oregon in 1S48
and oldest pioneer woman in the
northwest, celebrated the Goth ami
versary of her birthday at the home
of her grandson, Walter Belknap,
1928 East Providence avenue, Spo-
kane, a few days ago. She is in
good health and expects to reach the
century mark She has not experienc-
ed days sickness in SO years.
Mrs. Belknap is a native of Ohio.
born on August Is, 1920. When 10
years of age, she married George
Belknap and moved to Van Buren,
county, Iowa, then territory, where
she and her husband Joined the Watts
party. The train, which composed
the party, was of 40 wagons, started
for Oregon, in which territory the
government then offered a half sec
ton of land to every settler. The
Belknaps settled 100 miles south of
Oregon City, living there 80 years.
The trip across the plains was
fraught with danger and troops OF
soldiers were assigned to guard the
emigrants from attack by indians,
Mrs. Belknap says that scores of shots
were exchanged daily, but few were
injured. When the party reached the
Oregon border the party divided, 20
of the wagons crossing the Cascade
mountains and there again divided
10 wagons going through to point
100 miles south of Oregon City.
Mr.. and Mrs. Belknap moved to
Washington territory in 1879, ana
settled in the Palouse country, 40
miles south of Spokane, which then
had a population of $50 and one
general store and a crossroads post
office, the mail being brought in by
pony express.
I'm those days none of us believed
that Spokane would ever have more
than 5000 population" said Mrs. Bel
KNAPP, land not even the most en-
thusiastic booster dreamed there
would one day be city of $4,000.
But it has come about in 81 years. p"
