A CHEERFUL STRAP-HANGER

Every man who gives his seat in a
street car to lady is not actuated by
politeness. In lots of cases his flan-
mel underwear has been shrun.. by be-
ing washed with poor soap, and stand
ing is more comfortable.
If Hewitts Easy Task soap is used,
flanpels go through the wash without
being shrunk and retain their Origi-
nal downy softness. It's five cents a
cake and goes farther.

HAS FAITH IN SPUOS
AS A PAYING CROP
Henry Leenhouts of Selah Pro-
duces 100 Tons on Eleven
Acres, Part Old Land.

Henay Leenhouts of Selah is an adj
mirer of the humble and lowly spud
as a crop for the rancher to cherish.
He is willing that all who desire may
sing the praises of fruit or tell how
strong onions may become, or raise
alfalfa to their own glory and that of
the valley or breed hogs against the
peace and dignity of the state of
Washington, but. as for me-" he says,
give me spuds or give me death"
Mr. Leenhouts has grown 100 tons
of spuds this year on eleven acres. OF
this tract five acres have been planted
to spuds for three years in success
sion. They yielded this year thirty
three tons which is something better
than six tons to the acre. On the re-
naming six acres he got a little over
eleven tons to the acre, which at the
present price of $50 a ton, is a good
return financially. Mr.. Leenhouts has
made money every year on his pota-
toes,

d. NJ. ANGUS WANTS CHANGE
Declines to Pay AIimony to Former
Wife for Benefit of Another

D. NJ Angus, of Prosser, has filed
a motion in the superior court for an
alteration in the recent decree to stop
the payment of $125 month which
his wife obtained and for refund of
$125 now on deposit with the county
clerk for alimony. On September IL
the court granted Mrs. Angus a de-
cree of divorce on the ground of per-
sonal indignities, which consisted of
his charges of infidelity.
The husband did not contest the
action and paid over $1,000 as order
ed by the court. At that time An
gus said he believed his wife guilty of
infidelity and, in the affidavit, he de-
clares that he now has proof of her
guilt He charges that before and
after the time of trial she was at va
rious hotels with r. l.. Hollingsworth.
in North Yakima. Pasco and Port
land.
The affidavit declares he believes
she preferred Hollingsworth to him
before the decree was granted and
further that the decree was applied
for for the sole purpose of living with
Hollingsworth as his wife.

Northern China Now Manifests a
Disposition to Secede and
Joint the Rebels
ATTEMPT MADE TO
EFFECT COMPROMISE.
General Yuan Shi Kai Is Said to
Have Sent His Most Trusted
Emmissaries Into the Rebel
Camps to Negotiate

PEKIN, oct. 2S.-The revolution
ary spirit is now manifesting itself in
the north as well as in the south.
Those who heretofore have believed
the northern provinces might rally
around the government are now OF the
opinion that secessions will follow in
rapid succession. There are persistent
reports that uprisings have been plan
ned for the next few days in the inn
mediate vicinity of the capital. 1t may
be these will not be fulfilled but they
indicate widespread sympathy with
the revolt.
General Yin Tchang seems to have
pushed his troops through the passes
on Ho Nan HUI Peh border. Some
are therefore of the opinion he intends
to strike promptly. General Yin, it is
believed desires to give battle but Yuan
Shi Kai, on the other hand is temper
izing with the rebels. Yuan has re-
fused to leave Chang Te, as desired by
the government. and there is evidence
he has sent trusted adherents as ennis
saries to the rebel leaders. 1t is be-
lieved he is trying to reach a compro-
mise between the rebels and the
throne on the basis of immediate con-
stitutional government.

DR.. kloeber Thinks He Will Try
to Give an Increase of Amuse-
ment Another Season
CHANCE FOR LOCAL MEN
MAY BE INAUGURATED
General Idea Is to Make the Edu-
cational Features as Strong as
Possible BIT Also to Strengthen
the Entertainments

President Kloeber sof the Washing
ton State Fair commission is already
planning on his amusement attractions
for next years fair and it is his pres
ent intention to make them consider
ably more elaborate than has been the
case in the past. He has concluded
that people must be unused while they
are being instructed and that the State
fair to reach as many people as Is
possible, must contain more of what
are called popular features. This
year large sum of money was ex-
pended in bringing to North Yakima a
high-priced musical aggregation and
next year the idea will be changed
somewhat. 1t is altogether probable
that the music another season will be
that of local bands and that the vaude-
VILE attractions will be of a higher
class.
Looking Up Attractions
Secretary Cosgrove of the Spokane
interstate ldlI, NilO " lCuNC LII INV
east in few days, carries with him a
verbal commission from DR. Kloeber
to keep an eye out for attractions suit
able for the fair here and which can
be brought west irs conjunction with
the Spokane fair on other fairs of the
northwest DR.. Kioeber believes in
trained animal shows and will try to
obtain such as Gamble shown on the
race track or in front of the grand
stand. He has not commissioned Mr.
Cosgrove to close Nay contracts for
him, but they are working together to
obtain the best.
Some Local Contests
Another feature which will be added
next year if it is found feasible will be
to introduce attractions local to this
part of the state. For example, there
are some excellent log birlers at work
in this part of the state and it is prob
able that prizes will be given for eX-
hibitions by these men. Another Sc
ries of contests which has been con-
sidered is the working of sheep by
herders and dogs. Prizes, if the idea
lutd Is CdIIlGu Oul, Will We dNhiutu
to shepherds and their dogs who will
best perform stunts set for them. the
program to be worked out by some of
the leading foekmasters of the valley
Race Program Changes
AS already announced. DR.. Kloeber
has decided on varying his horse race
program considerably next year. in
Producing more running races and few
err but higher class harness events. 1t
is mistaken idea that the money CIV
en- as prizes at the horse racing events
comes altogether from the state funds
The harness horsemen race in large
part for their own money under the
present system Of early and late clos
ing stakes and the fair association do
not distribute nearly the amount of
money they are said to distribute an
nually. However DR.. Kloeber pro-
poses a new plan which he thinks will
give more and better sport at a re-
duced cost. He is working on the
general idea of a fair which will be
as complete as anything of it's kind
can be in this state and much more
entertaining than tnything which has
hitherto been given here.

sary much sooner than was anticipate
ed, to make the eight room addition
