Quite a typical scene is the
milk man and his goats going
through the streets. The women
ct down their little buckets or
cups by means of a line then the
man milks the goat, and the
woman waits and hauls it up.
They do not milk from the side as
we do cows, but always from be-
mind. The streets are. full of
vendors of all kinds. When l

it was the favorite residence of

100 automobiles in town.
On Saturday afternoon the
chamber of commerce arranged
to take the conference members
for a spin and there seemed to
be no lack of autos for the pur-
pose, and the ministers were loud
in their praise of the fine sur
rounding country.
The citizens boast of having
no saloons and that there never
will be a chance for a saloon in
the city.
1t has several churches, some
of which are fine buildings and
the congregations are large.
The mayor, who is a member of

SHER|FF'S BOND
NOW At ISSUE
Rumor Says That Surety Com
pany Will Today Ask Per-
mission to Withdraw.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
CONVENE. THIS MORNING
Indications Are That Massa-
chusetts People Will Seek to
Have Their Pledge for $4,000
Guaranty Cancelled. =

Sheriff zoe" Lancaster's bond of
$4,000, given when he assumed Office,
will be cancelled today by the surety
company, IL statements circulated in
the court house and about the city
last evening are correct II this proves
to be the case when the county com-
missioners meet in session this morn
ing. Mr.. Lancaster will be called
upon for a new bond at once.
When the rumor regarding the bond
reached the Herald an effort was at
once made to verify the report or
learn its source. The bond given by
Mr.. Lancaster was that of the Massa-
chusetts Bonding Il Insurance COM
pany which at that time was repre-
scented in this field by the Yakima
Commercial company. l.. O. Janeck of
the company said that his firm had
ceased to be the representatives here
of the Massachusetts company but
that he had been looking into the
matter. thinking at the time that the
bond was that of another company
he represented.
He said, also, that he had talked
over recent and pending develop
ments in the office of the sheriff with
some of the county officials and COM
missioners and that he had also been
in communication with the bonding
company regarding the bond of the
sheriff Mr.. Jancck had no definite
statement to make concerning the
bond, saying that he no longer rep
resents the company Interested. When
asked, however. if 1t was likely that
the bond would be cancelled at the
session of the county commissioners
today he said that in his opinion such
action was altogether probable and
that the Massachusetts, comp, ny
would want to withdraw from the
bond.

NOTED VETERAN II:
VISITOR IN yAk,v.A
Hon. Joseph w. Range of X 4
County Who Performed He
roic Service in War.

Hon. Joseph Wilson Range, for
merly senator from King county, and
known to many people in this city, is
on visit here, meeting old friends.
The senator has a military history
of which any person might we'll be
proud, but owing to his natural mod
esty it has escaped publicity until
yesterday when he met one of
his G. A. r. comrades who is con-
versant with the facts.
The senator has been citizen of
this state and territory for more than
35 years. He served through the civil
war, in the Tenth Ohio cavalry and
made an enviable record in defense
of the old flag. Senator Range was
the sergeant in command of a squad
of men at the battle of Averysbor-
ough, n. c., in April, 1865, and he
with his squad of five men captured
Gen. Rhett in that battle and brought
him into the Union lines, turning him
over to Gen. Fitzpatrick, the Union
commander. Sergeant Range, with
his own hands, disarmed the general
who was then inside the confederate
lines.
At the time of the attack on Fort
Sumpter in 1861 Gen. Rhett was in
command of Fort Moultrie. and it
was he who trained the first gun that
sounded the tocsin of civil war, from
Fort Moultrie upon Fort Sumpter.
commanded by Major Anderson. thus
he is today in this city the cap
tor of the man who fired the first gun
upon Fort Sumpter in 1861. This
alone is enough to add fame to his
name as long as the Union survives.
Senator Range yet looks to be in
the prime of life and activity. He
has spent several years in the great
Copper River country of Alaska and
is today the lucky owner of the most
valuable copper property in the world.
Senator Range is a past post COM
mander in the G. A. r. and his old
comrades and friends here are re-
ioiced to met him. He is at the Ho-
tel Washington and will spend few
days in North Yakima.

SCHOOL YARD TO Be

Parents and Children Unite to
Make Summitview an In

When the spring comes back next
year it is going to find the school
yard at Sununitview a place of beauty.
CrOcuses are going to open at its first
call, and there will be tulips and
daifodils following after Preparatory
gardening has been going on for some
days. the children showed marked
interest in the work. Summitview

are to he allowed to blossom indoors.
Besides. all of the successful garden

are taking an individual interest and
since it is against the rules for any
sort of collection to be made for
school purposes they are contribut-

school grounds
Mrs Wallis Williams and Mrs. w.
NJ Watt are alive to the possibilities
in the school grounds and are help
ing Miss Grace Shannon, the princi-

Williams wants a large peony bed
there and Mrs Watt wants some
roses planted and these ladies are
making it their business to see moth

children in Summitview and asking
them TO contribute peony bulb OF

Orchardists of the North Yakima

now turning their attention to one or
two of the pests which need to be
constantly watched in such climate
as this. Woody aphis is abroad in the
land and on the orchards of some OF
the newcomers has been permitted to
gain considerable Roadway. On Sun
day many of the orchards west of the
city were found to be infested. To-
bacco and kerosene emulsion are the
treatment generally recommended
but the fight is more or less con-
slant one and so far there has been
offered no real cure. The question
Is one which has the experts at work
along lines of study. investigation
and experiment and among the stu
dents are 4. O. Morrison. the local
deputy horticulturst, who expects
later to have some suggestions 10
make of value to the men whose trees
have the aphis.

posed upon themselves and not Few
of the number, especially those who

BALLOON AMERICA MAY BE
LOST IN LAKE SUPERIOR
Milwaukee Weather FOrecaster Be-
Iieves That Sudden Change OF
Winds CapsiZed Craft.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 90
Weather Forecaster Devereaux asserts
belief that the America III is lost in
Lake Superior. He says when the
America started from st. Louis. the
wind would have carried the balloons
in this direction. About the time the
balloon was over Lake Michigan the
wind veered to the south and a
straight northerly course, should have
taken the balloon over Lake Superior.
Before the balloon had crossed. the
wind changed to the southeast and the
balloon should have been carried
westerly over the lake. Later the
wind veered to the north and Dever-
eaux believes forced the America
south again, but that apparently the
balloon did not get far enough south
to come down on land.

RICH COAL STRIKE
HELPS THORP PEOPLE
Good Quality of Fuel Is Found on
Taenum Creek In
Kittitas.

A rich strike of coal has been made
at the mine operated by Mr.. Wilson
on Taenum Creek. This mine Is
about two miles above Ellison's mill.
The mine has been operated for
about two years, but until this strike
produced only an inferiar grade Of
coal.
The vein seems to be a large one.
Experienced miners have long been
convinced that the hills about Thorp
contained an excellent grade of coal,
and prospecting has been done on
large scale recently. The Chicago,
Milwaukee & Puget Sound railway is
buying options extensively in the
neighborhood and is operating a large
drilling plant about five miles up the
Taenum.
Although it is not yet being extern
sVely worked, the recent strike has
resulted in cheap fuel for Thorp peo-
pie. as by hauling it themselves they
can get coal at $3.50 per ton.---Cle

ASKS $4,000
FOR DAUGHTER
First Damage Case to Arise Out
of D Street Auto Wreck, Is
Filed in Superior Court.
HOPE DAVIS MOTHER
WANTS IMMENSE SUM
Plaintiffs Attorneys Transfer Case
to Federal Court-Suit Is First
Gun Against N. P. for Collision
Which Cost Three Lives.

The first damage suit growing out
Of the d street auto wreck June 10
when Northern Pacific passenger train
No. 4 struck an automobile driven by
L. I. Strangeway killing three of the
occupants, was begun Tuesday when
Attorneys Bruff and Raetgg filed in
the superior court for Mary r. Davis,
a complaint asking for damages in
the amount of 100000 for the death
of Miss Hope Davis, daughter of the
plaintiff. The latter was killed out
right in the collision.
Shortly after the filing, the plain
tiff's attorney appeared before the
court and asked that the case be re-
moved to the federal court This re-
quest was granted. In view of the
fact that no appointment has been
made to succeed the late Judge Whit
son, it is not known when the case
will be argued.
Allege Negligence.
In the complaint the plaintiff al
leges that her daughter, Hope. came
to her death by reason Of negligence
on the part of employees Of the de-
PENDANT. Other than this no new
points are brought out in the allega-
tons.
The wreck in which Miss Davis met
death, occurred at the Northern Pa
cfic D street crossing at $3.50 o'clock
in the afternoon. OF the five occu-
pants of the car, Miss Davis and Miss
Lenna Buckmaster were killed out
right; Mrs. Clarence Brown sustained
injuries from which she died two
weeks later and Mrs. William Kin
caid and Driver Strangeway recov-
cred.
In one of the most expensive cor
oner's inquests ever held in Yakima
county, both the Northern Pacific
employees and Driver Strangeway
were exhonorated of any blame for
the accident although the jury saw fit
to censure both the railroad company
and the city for not having better
protection at the crossing.
