STYLES CHANGE
IN LOVE AFFAIRS
Young Man Recently Proposed on
a Menu Card, Then Went on
With His Dinner

LONDON, Sept 2.-Fsshions are
constantly changing in clothes for
women, veering from the primly Sc
we're TO the lavishly decorative. So.
too, the fashions in love and propos-
ais are charging.
After revival of the old fashione l
courteous style of proposal youth has
now gone back again to the curt, off
hand form of love making
An actor with a large number of
social acauaintances voiced this inter
esting opinion yesterday
See-Saw of Fashion
He gave the following rough list,
showing the "see-saw" fashions of
real life proposals since 1850:
1S50-Proposing a most difficult
matter. Girl hedged in by strict
mother and father Lovers had then
10 wait long for an opportunity to
propose. Usually did so on Bonded
knee. with many graceful and flow
ing sentences.
Ss0-First signs of matter Of
fact proposals made their appearance.
A well known bishop proposed TO the
lady OF his choice over a chess table.
"1900-Romantic proposals prac-
ticaliy dead. Etiquette Of this time
gave lovers every opportunity to pro-
pose. consequently made light of the
event. The table and tennis propos-
ais popular.
"1s10-Revival of oR-the-knee pro-
posals, promoted, il is thought, by
the large number OF romantic plays
running at the time
Present day-PropOsals curter
and more matter of fact than ever"
Il know a young man who pro-
posed a few days ago on the back
of a menu card said the actor.
Proposal on Menu Card
He was seated at restaurant
with the lady ne apparently loved
and during the course of the dinner
nonchalantly reached out for a menu
card and scrubbed something on the
| back
He wrote Will you marry me?
and passed II across the table TO the
girl. and went on with his dinner"

MANY SEE ABBEY

LONDON, Sept. Although West
minister abbey is not to be reopen"d
20 the general public until Sept s,
many Americans have been allowed
to visit the historic structure this
week by showing their return rail
road and steamboat tickets and prov
ing that they might not otherwise
have chance of seeing the abbey.
Ever since the abbey was closed TO
the public after the coronation is has
been mater of daily occurrence to
see a small crowd, generally of Amer
leans, begging the policeman on duty
for Just one peep"
Both eNteriorly and internally -he
abbey Is now beginning to look Ike
its old self, although some wo3Gen
screens around the monuments stlll
remain and the abbey yard stiu il
extremely uRuoy.

CONTEMPT WARRANT
WANTED BY FRENCH
Hubbard Ditch Officials Ask for
Such Warrant Against r.
G. Burrill

Affidavit for warrant charging
contempt Of court in allowing water
to flow into the Hubbard ditch con-
trary to the order of the superior
court, was sworn to Saturday by Q. l..
French, president and superintendent
of the Natchez and Cowichee Ditch
company, against Robert G. Burrill,
representing the Burrill Orchard COM
pany. The affidavit recited the fact
that a temporary injunction had been
granted Aug. %, restraining the Bur
rill Orchard company and others from
emptying waste water into the Hub
bard ditch and alleged that this prac-
tice was still continued, foul water
rendering the water of the Hubbard
ditch unfit for domestic use.

SECOND LOCAL HORSE
PAGES IN FAST TIME
King Seal, Started by Sebastian at
Vancouver Meet, Takes
Third Money

Horse racing news published in the
daily papers of Vancouver, B. c., make
1t apparent that r. NJ. Sebastian Of
this city, who has been racing there,
has his horse pretty well conditioned
for the contests. The fact that Mr..
Sebastian had won the 235 pace with
his horse, Tom S, was announced in
the Herald on Saturday. This race
was contested on Thursday. On the
next day Mr.. Sebastian started his
pacing horse King Seal in the 2;2o
pace and drew third money from
among a field of ten starters. He fin
ished third in two heats and fourth in
the second heat, being well up witt:
the leaders in punched finishes. the
time of the heats being 2:20& and
2:19 and 2:19. Cosidering that the
track is two laps to the mile and was
so wet and sloppy that it was heavy
and could not be used within two
places of the pole this is good time.
Track Is Slow
In the 2:35 pace which Tom S. won
in straight heats after finishing second
IN the first heat the time was slow r,
being 2:2S; 2:31, 1884 and 2:93. This
race was paced on a track so slow
that veteran campaigners like Sher-
lock II dimes in the free-for-all class
could not negotiate it at all in re-
spectacle speed and the summaries
look like a race meet at some country
fair where the track is a small ring
and made of mud. Judging from the
contests that the horses are putin &
up on the various tracks of the North
west the sport is good. the animals
fast and well matched and the com
petition keen. If this endures, the
State fair races one the mile track
here should be something better than
the average

Secretary of Interior Already In
Possession of Data Regarding
the Reservation
WAPATO FOLK PREPARE
TO ASK FOR ASSISTANCE
Committees Have Been Named
Which Will Present the Claims
Of the Lower Valley If the OPP
portmity Presents Itself

Wapato, according to information
which has been disseminated in North
Yakima, has made preparations to
meet Secretary of the Interior Fisher
upon his arrival in this city a week
hence. 1t is understood that the
.Wapato Commercial club has outlined
plan of campaign, has appointed
committees and made other prepare
tons to enable a proper representa-
ton to be made to Mr.. Fisher of the
needs of the reservation in the way
of money for further development.
The situation with reference to the
reservation is pretty well understood
particularly by the residents on the
reservation. The importance of res
ervation development and the integ-
rity of the water rights of the low
err valley are not fully understood,
however. by people this side of the
gap.
Uncertain About Coming
The important question just now is
whether Mr.. Fisher will come here.
That is matter which will not be
known definitely until after Tuesday.
On that day wireless messages are
expected from the secretary announc-
ing the time of his arrival from
Alaska and his proposed itinerary for
the first week after his arrival from
the north. This word will be at once
sent to North Yakima. II he deter
mines to come here the people in
terested in the reservation, the de-
velopment there, the surplus storage
water and such things will take hold
of him and endeavor to extract prom
Uses of help for the development worl,
needed there. Mr.. Fisher, it is under
stood. has already been supplied with
a mass of data regarding the Yakima
country. This he has had with him
on his trip into Alaska to study in his
leisure moments and it is expected
that. If he comes to this valley, he
will come we'll posted as to the facts
figures. conditions. etc, ill such rep
reservations having hitherto been
made to him. His personal inspec-
ton will thereafter determine his &C
ton.

PROPOSE TO HANG
15-yEAR OLD BOY
Juvenile Courts and Social Or.
CARNATIONS Asked to Pro-
test Against Execution

Mrs. Florence Kelley has just ask
ed the Woman's journal to give the
auiskest possible publicity to the case
of Earl Gilchrist, a child of Is years,
on September s. Mrs. Kelley says:
obviously the Judge of the circuit
court of Little Rock, Ark. is not re-
sponsible to the mothers for election,
and he need not account to them
whe he desires reelection"
The Juvenile Court of Los Angeles,
Cal, appeals to all who value the life
of a child to protest against the
proposed hanging of a child of Is
years of age on September s.
Earl Gilchrist, a colored boy. has
been under sentence by the Judge of
the Circuit Court of Little Rock, Ark,
since July IS; he is to be hanged on
September for killing Will Long
ley another colored boy, in street
fight on June g.
Governor Can Stop 1t
The name of the circuit court Judge
who overruled a motion for a new
trial should be given world wide pub
licity. Hanging a boy of Is years
at time when capital punishment
even OF hardened criminals of mature
age is gradually being abolished, is
enough to fill the minds of enlight-
ened men and women the world over
with horror.
Governor George w. Donagly of
Arkansas can stop the execution if
he will.
Protests should be telegraphed and
mailed to him at once to Little Rock,
Ark.
