Mrs. M. j. Mcdonald, propri-
etress of the Artisan Hotel and w.
A. Kennett were married yesterday
in Prosser at the Methodist parson-
age, Rev. Smith officiating. Mr..

Kennett returned to Kennewick on
No. 4 and were entertained at the
Ferrell home in the evening and
enjoyed bountiful wedding supper
which had been prepared for them
by his daughter. The many friends
of the couple wish them much hap
piness in their union.

PAINTERS take
A BAD TUMBLE
Detective Rope Lets Men Fall
Forty Feet---Injuries Rela-
lively Slight

An accident occurred, Tuesday
norning, at the new school build
;ne. of which a sadder record might
have been made, had it not been
fr the miraculous escape Of c. T.
irwin and Ed. Hodgkinson, who
iell from the third story, a distance
# forty.two feet. Mr.. Irwin re-
eeiyed injuries amounting to three
moken ribs and a bad cash on the
chin and Mr.. Hodgkinson's entire
body was badly bruised, rendering
him temporarily helpless. So far
no internal injuries have been dis
covered in either case. Mrs. Hodg-
kinson was notified of the accident
and arrived Wednesday from Spo-
kane and is with her husband at
the Koontz Hotel.
The two painters were working
on the cornice and the scaffold had
been hoisted from the ground and
was apparently all safe when the
two men climbed out of the third
story windows to 60 to work. A
rope was tied to each end of the
board on which they were standing
and after each had tied his end of
The rope securely they had crossed
over to inspect each others tie.
The syrup broke just as Mr.. Hodg-
kinson reached the end of the board
and both men were hurled down
onto a pile of lumber. The rope
had been inspected by three men
and was thought safe, but it had
been used a few days previously
when the walls of the building were
washed down with uratic acid and
this fluid must have taken action
on the fibers. DR.. Crosby was
called upon and the injured men
we're soon made comfortable.
Both patients are reported to be
progressing toward recovery and

SEWER WORK LET TO JENNINGS.
Spokane Man Promises to Use Local Labor
Improvement District for Entire City
is now being Formed

The contract for building the
trunk sewers was awarded to NJ
Jennings of Spokane on Monday
evening. Mr.. jennings bid, which
was the lowest among twenty sub
mitted, was for S9,497. 80 The
bids were opened Friday afternoon
and all but five of them were re-
turned to the unsuccessful bidders
Friday night. At this meeting a
petition was presented to the council
by S. M. Lockerby and signed by
$50 voters, asking that in the con-
sideration Of the bids it should be
specified, if possible, that the sewer
work be done by local labor. Mr..
Jennings, who is now finishing his
work on the Pasco system, has used
Italian labor on his contract in that
city. Local feeling is very strong
against bringing in a force of foreign.
ers here, if a crew can be made up
locally, and the circulators of the
petition had no difficulty in finding
signers.
The five lowest bids were held
under advisement by the council
from Friday until Monday night,
when the contract was given to
Jennings on his promise that local
white labor be used whenever posi-
BILE. Mr.. Jennings expects to have
his crew assembled and be on the
job within the next two weeks. He
and Mrs. Jennings will make their
home here while the contract is be-
ing completed.
On Tuesday night the city attor-
ney was ordered to prepare a reso.
luton for the formation of Sewer
Improvement District No. l, which
will include practically the whole
city. No delay will be made in
getting this district organized, and
it is expected that specifications will
be prepared, bids called for and
let for the sub-sewers before trunk
sewers are completed.
Following are the streets upon
which sewers are to be construc-
ted;

KENNEW|CK DEBATERS
WIN FROM PROSSER
Local Team Victorious in Argument
for State Conservation of
Resources

The contest between the debating
teams of Kennewick and Prosser
High Schools resulted in victory
for the local team. The conserva-
ton of the natural resources was
the subject discussed and the young
people showed considerable ability
in handling 80 difficult a subject.
The localteam supported the affirma-
tive side of the argument the speak
ers being Nellie Hoadley, Martin
CARRIER and Merrill Rawson, Miss
Hoadley handling the rebuttal.
Alfred Boyle, Clayton Smith and
Paul Marley spoke for Prosser. Mr.,
Hungrate from Cheney Normal
School, Mr.. Davis from the North
Yakima High School. and Mr.. Glib
son from Walla Walla acted as
judges, their vote resulting in a
two-to-one decision for the affirma-
tive.
This makes the fifth contest be-
tween the Prosser High School and
ours of which Prosser has won two
contests and Kennewick three.
According to the rules of the state
interscholastic series of debates the
winning team will continue until
defeated while the losing team has
to drop out of the series. It is un.
fortunate that these rules require
that after the first contest one mem.

SUPERINTENDENT YOUNG
SERIOUSLY INJURED
Electric Shock Causes Fall from Pole
and p. p. & l.. Official Sustains
Broken Ribs

N. l.. Young, superintendent o1
generation and distribution for the
Pacific Power & Light company,
was thrown from the top of a 20.
foot telephone pole yesterday after
noon and sustained dangerous in
juries. At the time of this writing
his condition is considered critical,
as an examination by Drs. Crosby
and Delepine shows that three OF
four ribs are broken loose from the
spine, one of which is thought tc
have penetrated the lungs.
The accident occurred about three
O'Clock, while Mr.. Young was try
ing to locate the cause of some
trouble on his telephone circuits
and had climbed one of the poles
near the plant. According to the
story told by the injured man last
evening, he took hold of a tele-
phone wire with either hand and
found them so heavily charged he
couldn't let 60 in time to save him
self from falling. He struck the
ground on his left shoulder, and
being a man of heavy weight his
injuries were more serious than
otherwise they might have been.
Miss Bertha Leverich, who was
down at the plant working in the
Princess campaign, was standing
near the pole and secured assistance
Immediately. Mr.. Young recov.
cred consciousness soon after the
fall. He is now at his home in the
Garden Tracts, the house formerly
occupied by R. P. Tulles. 1

the Palouse country. He came to
kennewick more than a year ago
from Rockford and established a
comfortable home for his family in
the Garden Tracts. MIR. Toll was
an hrnored member of the Metho-
dist church and as a man of integ-
rity ability, and kindness toward his
fellow men, he was known and
loved by many friends. He was
engaged in the contracting business
for some time previous to his death.

JUBILEE TAKES
PLACE TONIGHT
Princess Contest to be Wound up
with Parade, Concert and
Dance

The contest which has been on
for the past two weeks to select
the Princess who will represent
Kennewick at the Apple Show, will
be bro ught to a hilarious close to-
night.
At 7:3O, the candidates in autos,
headed by the band will parade the
business streets. The parade will
end at the Commercial Hall and
be followed by band concert which
will continue from S:15 to 9:15.
Immediately following the con-
cert the floor will be cleared and
dancing will be enjoyed until mid
night, when the final count of the
votes will be taken. Five concert
tickets will admit to the concert
and one ticket will be taken up for
every dance. It is expected that
there will be some lively campaign
ing carried on by the leading can
didates during the last hours be-
fore midnight. The booster badges
which were sold last Saturday, and
of which another edition will be on
sale today, do not admit to concert
though through misunderstand-
ing some of the purchasers were so
misinformed.
The standing of the leaders up to
Thursday night is as follows:
Miss Howe 613O
Leverich $50
Lundy 215O
McCleverty 154O
The following is the program for
tonight's concert and dance.

Last Game of Football Season, Three
O'clock This AfternOOn-ShOuld
Have Banner Crowd

Everybody who possibly can take
an hour off should attend the Ken
newick-Grandview football game on
the local grounds this (Friday) af-
ternoon. This will be the final
game of the season on the home
gridiron, and it will be a good one.
Notwithstanding the team is the
strongest in the history of the Ken
newick schools, it has been miser-
ably supported, and as a result is
about 500 loser on the season s
games. In an effort to get out a
big crowd and wipe out some OF
this deficit, an effort was made to
get the stores to close during to-
days game, but was unsuccessful.
However it is to be hoped that the
crowd will be there just the same.
Grandview is touted as having the
strongest team in the Yakima val
ley, but certainly they will have to
go some to get away with the Ken
newick huskies. Our lineup will
be as follows: Boone. F. B.; Lar

CITY MAY OPERATE
own LIGHTING PLANT
Council Orders Plans and Estimates for
Municipal System-One Way
to Get Streets Lighted

The old adage that IF you would
have thing done right, do it your
SELF" is, in the opinion of the city
council, peculiarly applicable to
Kennewick's position in her struggle
for proper street lighting.
firing of the continual pickering
which has been going on between
the city and the P. P. & L. Co.
during the past two years, over the
proposed system for lighting the
residence districts, the council, on
a motion by Mr.. Rudkin, voted to
have plans and estimates prepared
for plant adequate to supply light
for the business streets and residence
districts.
Such system, it is roughly fig
ured, would cost in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. The city, together
with private individuals, is now
paying about 500 per month for
what few arcs and clusters that are
now being burned, and would have
to dig up about $I75 more each
month for lights in the residence
districts providing the P. P. & L..
Co. would install them).
For less than this amount a mu-
nicipal plant and system of street
lights could easily be maintained.
So why, asks the city fathers,
shouldn't the city light it's own
streets in its own way? The idea
has caught on to stay, and the COM
mittee at work on it say they will
have report prepared very shortly.
