CONVENTION OF SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORKERS IS ENCOURAGING
CONTRIBUTED

CONTRIBUTED
The Benton county sunday school
convention, which was held at Pros
ser November IL and 13, closed too
late to be reported last week. 1t
was a successful convention, and
the hospitality of the Prosser people
was genuine and generous.
The meetings were held in the
United Presby terian church and the
ladies of that church served meals
in well arranged basement dining
room.
Their pastor, Rev. Stewart, is the
county Sunday School Association
president, and a very capable and
enthusiastic leader. A busy man.
who takes time to direct the Sum-
day school work of the county so
ably, deserves the heartiest cooper
alton, not only of his staff of Off
GERS, but of men and women alike,
in an effort for Bigger and Better"
Sunday schools.
The convention is to be held in
Kennewick next November, and
we bespeak for the workers and vis-
iting delegates, Kennewick's most
loyal entertainment. We also hope
to report the greatest advances along
all lines of Sunday School progress
made by Kennewick schools. Why
can't we break the record for pro-
gress? Let our men and women
come to realize that one of the
worlds greatest movements today
is along the line of organized adult
Sunday school work, and the day
is won-success is sure.

TRAGEDY AT NORTH YAKIMA

George E. Defoe shot and killed
J. II. Hagerman and wounded Geo.
Ogburn at North Yakima early last
Sunday morning. Defoe was en-
ployed on a boat plying between
Victoria and Seattle and was called
home by a wireless message from
his brother, who lives at North Yak
ina. He arrived home about one
o'clock Saturday night and found
that his wife and another woman
had gone to a dance in the Naches
Valley, accompanied by Hagerman
and Ogburn. Defoe laid in wait
for the party and on their arrival
he emptied four shots from his re-
volver with fatal results to Hager-
man. Defoe was found concealed
at his home several hours later and
was placed under arrest.

POWER co. PROMISES
BETTER WATER PRESSURE
Will Remedy Fire Fighting Facilities by
Installation of Heavier Pump
and Motor

Manager G. D. Longmuir Of the
Pacific Power & Light Co. was called
before the council Tuesday night to
explain why the company has not
been obeying the terms of their fran
chise in the matter of furnishing
adequate water pressure for fire
fighting purposes.
sM Mr.. Longmuir explained that the
lack of sufficient pressure, which
had so hampered the work of the fire.
men at the Antlers Hotel and Tull
fires, was due to the low efficiency
of the pump and motor now in use
at the pumphouse. He said that a
h heavier pump, capable of delivering
nozzle pressure of IS pounds had
already been installed and that
100 h. p. motor to operate the same
had been secured in Portland, would
be shipped Immediately and would
be installed by December 1st, as a
temporary remedy.
Later on the company will re-
place the temporary plant with a
permanent one, plans for which
have been prepared. The perma-
nent plant will be equipped with
pumps and motors powerful enough
to guarantee an emergency pressure
of 100 lbs. at the hydrants, which
pressure is called for by the terms
of the company's franchise. The
permanent plant will require about
five months to assemble and install.
The council agreed to accept the
temporary arrangement, providing
that the motor, when installed on
December 1st, show by test an eff
cheney of at least 70 pounds press
sure with three nozzles in use.
Mr.. Longmuir also stated that
the placing of the water main ex-
tensions in the eastern part of town
will be done as soon as the COM
pany's crew is finished with similar
work in Pasco.

GLEASON-CAMPBELL

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. H.
Campbell was the scene of a very
pretty wedding on Wednesday eve
ming when their daughter Elizabeth
became the bride of Irving S. Glea-
son. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. c. D. Rarey in the presence
of about fifty relatives and friends.
The bride, who was dressed in white,
was attended by Miss Ellen Rich
ardson, while Walter Summers acted
as groomsman. The wedding march
was played by Mrs. A. C. Anon
and F. H. Lincoln. The ceremony
was followed by the serving of a
dainty wedding supper.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gleason are two of
Kennewick's most highly esteemed
young people and the many beauti-
full wedding gifts which they re-
ceived attested to their popularity.
Mr.. Gleason is chief clerk for the
Kennewick Fruit & Produce Co. and
his bride is one of the most active
of the workers in M. E. church
circles.
They will at once occupy their
new home on the Highlands, de-
ferring their wedding trip until the
coming summer when they expect
to visit their old homes in the east.

OPEN RIVER MEETING TUESDAY

A meeting will be held at the
Commercial Club room in this city
next Tuesday forenoon at 10 o'clock,
at which time matters of great i'm
portance to river traffic will be taken
up. The chief business to come be-
fore the meeting will be the matter
of determining whether the river
towns will raise a guarantee fund to
insure the continuance of service by
the Open River Transportation COM
pany during 1918.
The company operated their
steamers during 1912 at a loss of
$4,000 and will undertake a re-
sumption of service next year only
upon condition that the shippers
guarantee them against loss. Port
land business men have agreed to
guarantee one-half of the above sum
it the river towns served by the
company will stand ready to make
good the balance.
1t is expected that next Tuesdays
meeting in this city will decide
whether or not the company will
tie up or run its boats next year
and every business man in Kenne-
wick should be present. Represent
atives are expected from every town
and city effected by transportation
on the Columbia and Snake Rivers
between The Dalles, White Bluffs
and Lewiston.

RUNNING lines
THRU R|CHLAND
Milwaukee and O-W. Each Have
Surveying Parties Setting
Stakes in Coveted Field

The people of Richland are high
ly elated by the practical assurance
that they are to have railroad con-
nections with Kennewick during the
next few months. Two parties of
surveyors, one of whom is known
to represent the O-W. R. & N,
have been running lines through the
Richland district during the past
ten days. The second party is gen.
orally supposed to be working for
the Milwaukee, which system has
completed its line from Beverly to a
point a short distance below Han
ford. Concerning the survey work
the Richland Advocate says:
The first survey started from a
point north of Clements bridge on
the Yakima river. Taking a north
westerly course from there the line
was run past the Wheeler ranch
and on up and through the Hickey
tract, over. a corner of the high
school ground and then into the
Rollins orchard, leaving it little
this side of where it joins on to the
Long farm and continuing through
uncultivated land to the foot of
West Fourth street. Other lines
have been run and are still being
laid out by the surveyors, all being
in the same general direction, the
the idea seeming to be to locate a
route that will bring the road thru
on the western side of town and at
the same time give an outlet down
through Clements fiat without me-
cessitating the crossing of any coun-
ty roads.
TO do this the railroad bridge
would probably have to be built over
the Yakima river about a half to
three-quarters of mile west of the
county wagon bridge, thus bringing
the road at an angle into this
city"
A party of O-W. r. & N. officials
armed with blue prints, paid Rich
land a brief visit yesterday morn
ing.

PUSH IMPROVEMENT WORK

Two new ordinances, providing
for local improvement work, were
passed at Tuesday nights meeting
of the city council. Ordinance No.
154 creates Improvement District
No. 10 and provides for the con-
struction of cement curbs through
out Amon's Addition. A resolu-
tion was also introduced and passed
announcing the intention of the city
fathers to further improve the same
district by grading and leveling the
streets. The resolution sets the
date for hearing objections from
property owners on Tuesday, Dec.
10. 1t is the plan of the. council to
complete all formalities so that the
two contracts for the grading and
the cement work may be let at the
same time.
The second ordinance, No. 155,
provides for the construction of an
irrigation system in Stanton's Addi-
ton and the Hover Villa Tracts.
The date of hearing on the cement
sidewalk work to be constructed
throughout the same district has
been set for Thursday, December II.
Both ordinances and other notices
are published in full elsewhere in
this issue.

LADIES, ALSO, TO Be
CLOTHED BY BELLOWS
New Establishment will be Opened In
Beach Block-Sells Grocery
to We'll Brothers

James A. Bellows has acquired
another store. Not content with
the proprietorship of his mems Tog-
gerry, be last week bought the Myers
Grocery, and this week became the
owner of $4,000 stock of ladies'
goods.
Early in the week Mr.. Bellows
sold his new grocery to We'll Bros. i,
of Pasco, who will conduct the
same. The We'll Brothers, it will
be remembered, were the purchasers
of the Kennewick Furniture Com
pany's stock, which they afterward
moved to their store in Pasco. From
their experiences while Kennewick
merchants they have formed a fav-
orable impression OF Kennewick as
a business center hence their return
at this time. The stock will be
turned over to the new owners this
week.
The store room in the post office
building has been secured, and, as
soon as the poultry show has closed
the place will be fitted up similar to
Bellows present Toggery.
Mr.. Bellows has been figuring on
a ladies' store since before his fire,
but had hoped to secure building
where both departments could be
placed under one roof. However,
he has good locations for both his
stores, and as an added inducement
toward a speedy acquaintance he
will put on a big Introductory sale
as soon as he can arrange his goods.
Watch the advertising columns of
this paper for the date of the open
ing and further announcements.
