WORK RESUMED ON
SNOW CREEK CANAL
High Line Canal North of Town Being
Surveyed This Week

Manager Beecher Of the Icicle Can
al Co., who was in Leavenworth the
first of this week gave out the informa-
ton that a crew of engineers was at
work surveying a ditch line on the
north side OF town. On account Of
the high elevation Of the Snow Creek
Company's line it is quite possible to
bring their line we'll above all the ara
Bile land in the lower Chumstick val
ley and all the lands north of the town.
Mr.. Beecher says he has received very
liberal encouragement from land own
ers on the north side of the Wenat-
chez river and will prosecute the
building Of his line with that same
vigor which has marked all his past
performances.
The company is capitalized at $780,
900, with the right to engage in build
ing irrigation canals, build and op-
crate saw mills, power plants, develop
lands. w. F. Swalwell, of Everett,
is president Of the company, S. P.
Beecher, OF Peshastin, secretary and
treasurer. E. G. Egbert, of Everett,
is one OF the trustees.
The activities of the company dur
ing the year 1912 will cover much
wider field than in the past. On ac-
count of the much lower cost Of its ir-
rigation system land owners have been
able to make very advantageous terms
with the company.

MARCH LUMBER SHIP
MENTS BREAK RECORD
Big Saw Mill Sends out Nearly Thirty
five Cars Each Week

The month OF March broke all past
records for lumber shipments at the
Lamb-Davis mill say the railroad men.
Throughout the month shipments av-
eraged very close to five cars for every
day. In addition to this over forty
cars OF wood were shipped. Some OF
the lumber went as far east as Cincin-
natl. Most of it going to Colorado,
Nebraska, Iowa and other middle west
ern states. Since the first Of last
month the mill has been running ev-
cry day with full crew of men.

Facts Worth Mentioning

Larkin our new third basemen ar
rived from Seattle Wednesday.
Well, we lost the first game, but it
wont happen again for awhile"
Maybe the jinks will be absent next
Sunday.
Bradley, a new man from Seattle,
will report this week to hold down the
third sack and Arnold will go to the
left field. That ought to help some.
Jack Mahoney got his usual two hits
and had not Fuller jumped into the
atmosphere about three feet and
speared one, he would have had three
to his credit.
Mcintosh demonstrated his ability
as backstop when he captured those
two high fouls. He may not have
the line of talk that Souder had, but
he's there just the same.
Captain Mazurie come thru with the
goods Sunday, taking two hard chances
in the field and driving out two clean
hits. This ought to convince some
people that he's still in the game.
Sunday it will be Odessa and maybe
we wont have cinch, either, from all
reports. 1t will be remembered that
last year we only beat this same crowd
to /, and Navaree held us to hits.
He is said to be better than ever this
year.

FIRE DESTROYS TWO
BUSINESS BUILDINGS
Grants Tailor Shop and Miss Cases
Millinery Store Burned Out Last
Friday Night

A fire that broke out last Friday
night, about 11:30, completely de-
stroyed Grants tailor shop and the
millinery store of Miss Goldie Case.
The fire is believed to have started in
rear Of the tailor shop but the origin is
unknown. By the time it was discov-
cred and the fire apparatus gotten out
it had made such headway that it was
impossible to save either Of the build
ings. The warehouses of the Leayen-
worth Furniture & Hardware Co. and
Wheeler's photo gallery were threat
ened, but through the good work on
the part Of the men handling the hose
they were saved and little damage to
them resulted.
Outside OF desk and typewriter and
one or two suits of clothes everything
in the tailor shop was lost.
Miss Case, who conducted the mil
linery store adjoining, was a little
more fortunate, most of her stock be-
ing gotten out, but it was badly dam
aged by water.
Chubby, fox terrier belonging to
Mr.. Grant that had been left in the
tailor shop, had a narrow escape, not
being noticed until the fire had cut off
every avenue Of escape. His cries
aroused the sympathy Of the crowd OF
onlookers and many were the volun-
teers who went to his rescue. Al
ter playing a stream Of water for some
minutes on the spot where he was i'm
prisoned, hole was chopped In the
sidewalk under which he had gone at
the outbreak Of the fire, and he was
finally released, badly smoked up and
drenched, but unhurt.
Miss Cases loss is estimated at
$500 with $1,000 insurance, Mr..
Grant had S400 insurance and be-

seven pitchers thrown in. If player
fails to show any class he is going to
tie the can to him and get another, SO
it is safe to say that the weak spots
will be fixed ere long.
Umpire Staks' decision that Wat
kins was out on a foul tip that landed
in McIntosh's protector was the cause
Of lengthy argument, delaying the
game for quarter Of an hour or more.
Whether the batter was out or not his
jumps" failed to see that the ball was
caught in the protector until his atten-
ton was called to it and he had made
his decision, so it stuck.

WENATCHEE WINS
THE OPENING GAME
First Game of the Season Goes to the
Visitors by a Score of 5 to 2

One thousand spectators turned out
Sunday afternoon to witness the open
ing game. In the forenoon the wea-
ther was cold and gloomy and every
one expected a bad day. But by
three o'clock in the afternoon the
clouds had rolled by and it was warm
and sunny with the grand stand and
bleachers we'll packed.
1t is estimated that fully 500 per-
sons came from Wenatchee on the
special train.
The visitors began annexing their
scores from the start getting one run
in the first inning and one run in the
third.
Kile was in great form and up to
the third inning not a hit had been
recorded against him.
The first two and only runs that
the home team drove over the plate
came in the fifth. Arnold first up hit
past second for one base, Mazurie iol-
lowed with a nice two bagger sending
Arnold to third. Anderson, the Min
nesota slugger followed and could he
have connected with the ball the
chances are that he would have scored
the two runs, but there was nothing
doing for Alden and he had to retire
to the bench.
Brown was up next and hit over to
little Eve in short who failed 20 handle
it as quickly as he might and Arnold
scored the first run. Miller hit past
first base scoring Mazurie. This set
tied it however as Mahoney lifted a
long fly to center field which retired
the side.
In the sixth inning the Red Apple
bunch again got busy, with the result
that two more runs came over. AS
Brown appeared to be weakening he
was pulled out and Foster the late
Wenatchee High school boy sent in,
who finished the game allowing only
one hit.
The eighth inning opened with a
good chance to tie the score, had the
luck been with US, but the jinks
seemed to be lowering over the diam
ond and there was nothing doing.
With Miller on third and Mahoney at
second with no outs, Parks hit hard
grounder to third which would have
ordinarily gone for at least two bases,
but luck was with Bradley who was
playing deep and he scooped it throw
ing the runner out at 1st. Miller at
tempted TO come home on the play
but was caught, Mcintosh was next
up and hit a weak grounder to Kile
and was thrown out.

Building activity was never more
in evidence than just now. The
foundation for the Tumwater Light
& Water Company's building is al
most completed. Brick laying will
begin next week. The estimated cost
Of this building is $4,000. The clear
ing of the lot on which the addition to
the Leavenworth Mercantile Co.'S
building is to be erected began this
week. Contractor Hartman has the
contract to remove a small frame
building which stood on the lot. The
contract for the addition will be let in
side OF ten days and the building
rushed to completion as rapidly as
possible. The addition will cost ap-
proximately $1,000. A large heating
plant, sufficient to heat both the new
and the old building will be installed.
The improvement which is contem-
plated by the Oldest mercantile COM
pany in the town embraces full
modern glass front with show windows
the entire width of the building on
Front street, sixty feet, and twelve
feet on Eighth street.

Roadmaster P. F. Conley Of the
Great Northern said to reporter for
the Echo this week that he had re-
ceived orders from headquarters to
commence work on the spur track into
the yards of the steel company's plant
at once. He had a conference the
first of the week with Mr.. H. E. Roth
ert, general manager for the steel COM
pany about some preliminary arrange
ments that had to be attended to.
The spur will turn out from the
southside track No. / at point near
the road crossing at the east end of
the railroad yards and will approx
mate three thousand yards in length.
Speaking Of the installment Of the
steel plant equipment Mr.. Rothert
said the orders for all the machinery
had been placed and much Of it was
ready for shipment and would now be
ordered out. A large shipment Of
vitrifed tiling to be used in lining the
furnaces is expected this week. Work
on three small furnaces is well under
way and work on the foundations for
the large furnace will begin at once.
Within the next sixty days the plant

lcide Canal Co. Will Begin Work Next
Week

Mr.. Doyle, who represents the
company in this section says the year

velopment of the upper Wenatchee
valley. The Icicle Canal Co. will re-
sumo work on the extension OF its
ditch lines down the valley. Work on
the Chumstick valley line, which will

$4,000 HOTEL IS NOW UNDER CONSIDERATION
Inside of Three Weeks $4,000 Worth of New Buildings viii Be Under

Corner Commercial and Eighth Streets

on which the two frame buildings
burned last Friday night has decided
to rebuild at once, having arranged to
purchase an adjoining lot from Deed
H. Magyar, and will erect a one story
brick building 70x80 at an estimated
cost of $4,000.
A permanent home for the Echo
will be erected on the corner of Com
mercial and Eighth streets, 25x80, at
al cost of $4,000. Architect White
of Spokane is preparing the plans for
this building and the contract will be
let as soon as the architects plans are
ready for the consideration of the
builders.
A number of local capitalists have
under consideration the building of a
S25, 900 hotel for this town. To this
end a company is to be formed. The
need of first class hotel in Leaven-
worth has long been recognized. 1t is
believed that a good hotel would not
only be paying investment but would
also fill long needed improvement in
hotel accommodations in the town.
Whether this enterprise will take shape
depends upon how much faith the
projectors have in the future OF Leav-
enworth.

In the light OF the returns from
North Dakota, Wisconsin and Illinois
one can read quite clearly why the
Taft followers so persistently combat
ted preferential primary expressions for
president. The officeholding cliques
that control party machinery may
steam roller the nomination OF Mr..
Taft through the convention but it is
surely becoming evident that the men
who who must be depended on to ell
ect him are way out of line.

pointed to investigate bitulithic paving
was read and discussed and the report
accepted, a representative Of The Dol
lar Way Pavement Co. was also pre-
sent and asked that he might put in
bids in case the city decided TO pave.

chke and Weigand favored buying the
system and Reynolds, Shubert and
Robertson voting no.

Reynolds who was strongly opposed to
buying the old system rose from his
chair saying he was through, rendering
his resignation and leaving the hall.
