Chance to Raise Funds.

Now that Boy Scouts Troop, No. IL, ha s
enlisted in the five-thousand-dollar con-
test. it is expected that other troops will
follow suit and that every playground or
public school grade that wants funds for
improvements in which it is interested
soon will be in the scramble for the
tempting prizes offered.
The winning of the $1,000 prize by a
playground would make possible the i'm
provement Of the park on a large scale
and would be an unusual achievement

ten hours.
Mr. Mcintyre asked that Rose be kept
from communicating with Weber. Val

COrCOran Hunting Trouble

This community knows that the ed
itor OF The Echo has tried to avoid a
controversy with ]. w. Corcoran by
taking no notice of his little-minded
filings, enduring them until endurance
ceased to be a virtue. Since the last
castigation was administered he has
been decent for some three months,
but broke out this week in commenting
on the application of Deed H. Magyar
for the appointment of guardian of the
estate of Frank Freund, and went out
of his way to say:
Guy A. Hamilton and Deed H.
Magyar filed their applications with the
court for appointment as guardian of
the unfortunate mans affairs. Mr..
Hamilton, being in the real estate bus
mess and having had considerable bus
mess with Mr.. Freund, might be con-
sidered a very proper party for the job.
The same can not be said, however,
for the other applicant, who is sup
posed to be the busiest man in the
community, editing his Bull Moose
organ and looking after his own exten-
sive real estate interests, to say nothing
of the fact that deep feeling of dis
like had been cherished against him by
the man whose property he wishes to
CONTROL
Deed H. Magyar has had very little
business with Mr.. Freund, but what
he had was of the most friendly nature.
There was no i'll feeling against him
on the part of Mr.. Freund for the rea-
son that there was no ground for any.
There never having been any disagree
ment and only the most trivial bust
ness transactions. The above fling,
so gratuitous and uncalled for, from
contemplate thief who tried to steal
honest mems reputation by charging
them with being mixed up in FIVE
thousand dollar graft against the city,
will be considered very good reason
why he himself should have guardian
appointed.
Nick Kincherf, John Emig, Coun-
Gilman Schubert and Councilman
Mischke, each speaking for himself,
told Deed H. Magyar that they consid-
cred him the best fitted and most ap-
propriate man in the community to act
as the guardian of Franz Freund. If
there is any good reason why Deed
H. Magyar should not be appointed as
the guardian of Mr.. Freund's property
it should be presented to the court
when the matter comes up on a hear
ing, Oct. %.

Another Bad Check Artist Captured

J. V. Ferguson, the young man who
about two weeks ago forged a check
for $40 on VIM. Roach, Of this city,
claiming that he had an account in the
First National Bank Of Wenatchee, was
arrested in that city last Friday eve
ming. On the following day he was
brought before Judge Grimshaw, to
whom he pleaded guilty and received
fine of 500 and was sentenced to
serve six months in the county Jail
Ferguson, according to Wenatchee
paper is the same young man who rode
horse in a Fourth Of July race in that
city and lost control of him, the animal
veering to one side of the course on
Mission street, trampling a rancher,
Tom Bice, under foot. The injuries
later resulted in the death of the man

F. FREUND COMMITTED
TO INSANE ASYLUM
Man Worth 100000 Loses His Mind
and Fears lie will be Killed by
His Imaginary Enemys

Franz Freund one of the old time
residents Of this section and probably
one Of the most eccentric characters in
the whole Wenatchee Valley, terrorized
the residents in the lower end Of town,
where he lives, last Friday night by
prowling around the neighborhood with
a loaded $3.50 rife searching for par
ties whom he said were trying to take
his life. Fearing that he might com

tilted and he was placed under arrest.
On Monday he was examined by
Drs. Mccoy and Haskell in Wenatchee
and pronounced insane. He will be
sent to the asylum at Medical Lake
where he will be confined until such
time as he regains his mental faculties.
Mr.. Freund has lived here for more
than twenty years and has accumulated
property estimated to be worth $780,
600. His first holdings was ranch
in the Chumstick valley which he dis
posed Of several years ago and put his
money into rent houses in this city.
He continued to buy dwelling houses
from time to time until he now has
thirty nine houses in the city. His
income is estimated at between four
and five hundred dollars a month.
He suffers from a bad case of
goiter and for number Of years has
lived the life of recluse, which no
doubt has something to do with his
present mental condition. Once be-
fore about fifteen years ago he became
insane and spent several months in
an insane asylum where he regained
the use Of his mental faculties. While
he is at present in a very bad condi-
ton there is chance that he may re-
cover from his afliction after a few
months.
A guardian will be appointed by
Judge Grimshaw to take care of his
estate. And in case he does not
recover, or his death and no heirs can
be found his property will revert to the
state.

makes such an impression on the
stranger when coming into the little
city that it is not soon forgotten. Both
sides Of the streets for many blocks are
lined with substantial brick buildings
and the air of prosperity seems to
prevail thruout the whole town. While
as vet not much of a fruit growing
section the land owners in that vicinity
are commencing to realize that they
have as rich and fertile valley as any
portion of the state and many large
tracts of land are being set to apples
and other varieties of fruit.
Here as in the other towns we Wis
tied we found the progressive element
to be in the majority and were really
surprised at the amount of interest be-
ing taken in politics and especially the
third party movement. The old re-
publican party we were told is practi-
cally dead in that city and the demo-
Gratis were making big talk OF control
ling things in that county this year,
but from all accounts they are not ia
ken very seriously.
