HOODOO AUTOMOBILE
LANDS FRESH VICTIM
Two Young Women and Four
Men Are Dumped Into Teton
Irrigation Canal

Two young women and four young
men of North Yakima took an auto
mobile drop into the Tieton ditch
three or four miles west of the city
on Thursday evening. The fact that
they dropped into the water saved
their lives. AS 1t was they got full
of water and mud, and bruises and
scratches. The young ladies, who are
sisters, and their two brothers, anoth-
er man and the chauffeur were rid
ing together climbing hill when
something went s wrong with the
steering gear of the car and it whirled
and started down hill and couldn't
be checked. Fortunately the ditch was
in the way and the car dove head
irst while its occupants spilled out in
err deep, which made little difference
as all went in head first Neighbors
came to the rescue, lent dry clothes
to the ladies and aided the men in
salvaging the car.
The automobile. by the way, is said
to be hoodoo. 1t has has seven
owners and no owner has yet been
able to drive 1t three hundred miles
in the aggregate. The car has killed
no one but has made the best of them
quit The present owner says he in
tends to fight II out and either the
car will run and behave or it will get
its next owner by inheritance. One
or two of his men friends have
sworn to stand by him but the young
ladies' say the fun is too expensive.

Will Determine Merit
Whether the birds are better lay-

the owners would not have entered
them unless there had been some rea-
son for hoping for success. If they
turn out as expected. good laying

eggs and Matched them will have
made cleanup. True it is a little

fact into consideration. but go after

All Breeds Represented
There are twenty or thirty pens %
birds in the competition and for the

what ruling Mckenzie will make on
the feared increase on fire insurance

The report which Mr.. Cheney and

will include the fire hazard in all Its
phases. In the matter of fire protec-
ton it will find North Yakima Woe

the lack Of an aerial ladder appara-
tus which would enable the fire de-
partment TO fight a blaze in the top
of one or the five or sIx-story build
ings.
Both Of these conditions will be
remedied soon, however. The fire

w. w. Robinson of Seattle Thinks
He Will Equip a Couple in
the Yakima Valley
SAYS THAT THE MARKET
IS AWAITING THE GOODS
And That He Must Prepare Him.
Self to Take More Advantage
of the Export Business Which
Is Opening Up to Washington

Two or three alfalfa meal mills
will probably be erected in the Yaki-
ma valley at once. w. w. Robinson
of Seattle has the idea in mind and
believes the time is ripe and that
there is market and a good field for
the manufacturer. Mr.. Robinson is a
heavy land owner in Yakima and
Kittitas counties. is the most extern
sive dealer in hay at the present time
who operates in Yakima produce and
Is also amongst the heaviest shippers
on the coast. He has been big
contractor with the government and
at the present time holds several gov
eminent contracts, the last being one
recently awarded to supply federal
forts on this coast and Hawaii with
hay and oats. 1t is reported to be
a new thing for a Washington dealer
to be shipping hay into California for
federal use, the contracts having US
ually gone to California men. Mr.
Robinson however has held many
contracts for supplies for Alaska,
Hawaii and the Philippines.
Preparing for Export
"I have been looking for locations
mills said Mr.. Robinson in North
Yakima Saturday, land also into the
matter of having some of this hap
double compressed. We have to get
more and more into this export bus
mess, which is of considerable size
now, is growing and which Will be
greatly fostered by the Panama canal
Moreover there needs to be some way
to assist the farmers of this valley
in using up the alfalfa they pro-
duce.
Using California Product
II have already shipped consider
able hay to foreign ports but the
alfalfa is not baled here to suit that
need, l find also. that this town is
using alfalfa meal in considerable
quantities and that Seattle and other
towns are using up quantity which
is manufactured in California and
shipped in from that state We have
the same chances and little bett ar
and / think the result of my investi-
cations will be that l will erect one
or two mills, perhaps in the lower
valley and manufacture some of the
meal here"
Robinson Well Equipped
1t will be rem embered that couple
of mills were started in this valley
and that they did considerable grind
ing. They were Handicapped because
of lack of capital and because the
selling of the product, which is dis
tinct business in itself was found to
be- more difficult than WAS supposed
Mr.. Robinson does not LACK capital
according to the general understand
ing regarding him, and as is we'll
known has q well orsahized business
prepared to- market the mill product
along with his present facilities for
selling the products of this valley
The development of his plans will be-
watched with interest,

DRAMATIC INCIDENT
CLOSES THE CASE
With Bowed Head He Rose Wear
lily and Passed Out of the
Cloak Room Where Friends
Gathered About Him

WASHINGTON, July 13.-By vote
of 55 to 20 the UNITED States senate
took away today from Lorimer his
seat as Junior Senator from Illinois.
His election was held invalid and he
is declared to have been the recipi-
ent of votes obtained by corrupt
methods and practices Lorimer
has been member of the senate since
June IS, 1909. The first suggestion
Of fraud i'm connection with his cleo
ton was made public April, 1910,
when Charles A. White, a member OF
the Illinois Legislature, swore he had
received $1,000 as bride for voting
for Lorimer.
Senate Reversed Itself
The senate by it's action today re-
versed the majority of it's own inves-
tigating committee and changed it's
vote of March /, 1911, when Lorimer
retained his seat, As to 40. Technical
ly, Lorimer will pass out of the re-
cords Of the senate as a member of
that body Notwithstanding his more
than three years occupancy of his
seat.
Facing his associates with the dec
in his own defense that lasted many
hours. Lorimer sat in the chamber
and heard his fate decreed as the
roll CALI showed the adoption of tho
resolution of Senator Luke Lea OF
Tennessee, the senate's youngest men,
Der.
Dramatic Closing Incident
The man, who for three days had
| held the senate to close attention AID
remarkable speech in defense and at
tack Upon his enemies, rose YEARLY
| from Ibis seat and passed back to d
cloakfoom door. Senator'S and men,
| bers rof the House gathered about
| him gra sping his hand and patting
his back. Outside the senate door as
Lori,ner stepped into the corridor his
friends greeted him again and party
Of Sisters of Charity pushed Onward
and expressed regret at the expul-
| sion. Lorimer required the attention
of physician. He said later he would
not leave Washington before the first
Of next week.
The outcome of the vote was not a
surprise. Lorimer gained only one
| of the men who voted against him
March, 1911, Senator Jones of Wash
ington, while he lost the votes of his
associate Senator Cullom, and of Cur
tbs. Briggs. Simmons and Watson.
Lorimer Discusses Vindicatfon
Discussing the possibility of fur
ther fight in his vindication, Lorimer
said tonight: Il must think things
over and talk to friends before / can
say whether shall go into political
fight for vindication The place for
me TO make d fight, should I deter
| mine on such a course would be be-
fore the people. Candidates for the
Legislature, who will select my suc-
cessor. have already been nominated.
Consequently ] cannot go into the
coming fight. Thus l would have 10
wait two years, hence, / have not
looked that far ahead. Before reach
ing decision want to have a full
opportunity to talk to my friends

DRILLED THREE MONTHS
IN 40 FEET OF CREVICE
Expect to Water ESQ Acres From
This Well, and Will Begin
Drilling for Another for Larger
Tract

Another gusher this time in the
Pomona district, is reported by Henry
r. Linse, with a flow estimated at
from 1900 to 1000 gallons a minute
steadily. The striking of the flow was
the result of six months steady work,
during which two shafts were sunk.
and in each case considerable thick
ness of rock penetrated.
The Linse we'll is about pa miles
east OF Pomona station, and u miles
east of the East Selah school house.
1t is situated on an acre of land be-
longing to Mr.. Linse, but only short
distance from a tract of $50 acres be-
longing to Mr. Linse and his partner,
Henry Froemke.
Sinking of the shaft was started on
Jan. Is. at depth of lis feet, mucn
of it through rock and crevice rock
at that, it was found necessary to pull
ths drills and begin over again.
The second time rock was again en-
eountered In all 100 feet of rock was
pierced by the drill OF the 100 feet,
40 feet consisted of the obstinate and
difficult crevice. A 12-inch hole was
sunk to depth of 100 feet, and from
that point down a 9-inch hole.
Strike Water Three Times
Twice before the flowing water was
found strata of water were encoun-
tered. At a depth of 100 feet flow
OF pumping water was encountered.
but there was no pressure. Again at
a depth of $50 feet water was en-
countered. but there was no pressure
and it would not flow from the mouth
of the well.
AT 420 feet. however. after the drill
had gone through the hard rock, ard
sand and gravel and the flow began.
VIII Water $50 Acres
Mr. Linse estimated last night that
the flow from the we'll will easily wa
ter, ESQ acres. He says the stream Is
larger than the stream furnished for
Tieten water users for 800 acres. The
land which ID is proposed ito water
with this we'll is part of the $50 acres
held in partnership by Mr. Linse and
Mr.. Froemke. 1t is their intention to
sink further wells until they are able
to water the entire tract from wells
Second In District
The gusher of Messrs Linse and
Froemke is the second to be struck
in that vicinity. The first one is that
of G. A. Clark, which is about 500
feet away from the new well. 1t is
thought, however, that the two wells
tap different layers of water. for the
reason that the Linse flow comes from
sand and gravel, while the flow of the
Clark we'll comes from porous rock.
Already Have Pumping Well
Mr.. Linse already has pumping
well, which was sunk year ago to
depth of about 900 feet The pump
ing proposition, however, was con-
sidered too expensive for irrigation.
and will be abandoned if the artesian
flow can be secured In sufficient guam
tity. The pumping well is now being
used for the irrigation of ~ acres Of
orchard
Pipe, size IS inches, for the pip
ing of the flow of water, is already on
the groundTs and the water will be
made available for irrigation at once.
