Wenatchee has a Building Boom

Building operations in Wenatchee
are increasing as the season advances,
and the closing Of the year will see
fifteen more store rooms in the city
than at the present time. E. T. Mauk
has commenced the construction OF a
one-story brick building on his prop
erty on Orondo avenue, which will be
used for store purposes, while o.. B.
Fuller has purchased 25 feet on We
natchee avenue, formerly occupied by
a frame building which was burned,
and will erect a two-story brick build
ing, which he has already leased.
The Y. M. C. A. expects to have
the balance of the money raised this
month to finish the new $40, 1000
building.

worth Mercantile Co.'s building is
completed. The store room occupied

compares with any mercantile house in
eastern Washington. The woodwork
Of the front is in native fir and makes a
handsome appearance, showing the
grain Of the wood. The finishing is
being done by H. F. Bryant, one of
our local painters. Contractor Ryan

.LEAVENWORTH WINS
AN EXCITING GAME
Another Game Scheduled for Red Apple
Town Next Sunday and Big Crowd
Will No Doubt Attend

1t wasn't big crowd that went to
Wenatchee last Sunday on the special
to see the two teams battle, to tell the
truth it was a small one. The only ex-
planation we can offer is that the local
fans expected to see their home team
90 down to defeat and did not want
to be present when it happened.
But the unexpected happened and
with the exception of the one bad in
ming for Hickey which happened in
the third frame when he walked three
men and four runs came in, it was as
good and exciting a game as any one
would want to see.
The four run lead did not bother the
locals very much and by the time the
ninth inning rolled around the score
stood 4 to 8. Then came the ninth
inning rally and two more runs were
added. The Wenatchee bunch tried
hard to even up the score in their
half, but Hickey was going good by
this time and struck out the first two
men who faced him and the third
popped an easy grounder to short and
the game was over.
Arrangements have been made to
play in Wenatchee Sunday and Man
ager Moore is OF the opinion that he
will be victorious again.

THREE MEN KILLED BY
PREMATURE EXPLOSION
Accident Occurred on Railroad COnstruC-
ton Near CheIan Falls

Three men, John Sheenan, aged 40;
Arthur Smith. aged 25; and 7. Soren-
son, aged IS, were killed by prema-
ture explosion at what is known as
Mile 80, near Chelan Falls, Tuesday
morning. The men were employed
by Clifton & Appelgate, contractors,
who are doing some of the construc-
ton work on the new railroad up the
Columbia river.
The cause Of the explosion is a mys-
tery, but it is believed that a spark
caused by wire on the loading tools
did the work.
Those who witnessed the accident
say that Blount and Sheenan were
tamping the powder in the hole and
had nearly finished, with the usual
charge of 100 pounds. The hole is
formed of a number OF smaller holes
which had been drilled and then spread
by a small shot which breaks up the
rock between the holes.
The preliminary shot had been set
off the day before. leaving "a hours to
cool the rock. AS is usually the case,
the powder had a tendency to stick to
the rock along the sides of the hole
and wooden stick was being used to
poke it down towards the bottom. A
copper wire at the end of the stick is
thought to have struck a spark when
coming in contact with the rock, al
though it is claimed that such con-
tingency is impossible.
Sheenan, who was Blount's helper,
was killed by the force of the explo-
sion, dying in about thirty minutes.
Blount was badly burned about the
neck and shoulders and his right arm
was fractured, but he was not fatally
injured.
Smith was blown over the side oi
the cliff and was found with a heavy
rock lying on top of him.
T. Sorensen was struck by flying
rocks and so badly injured that he only
lived few minutes. Foreman w. w.
Mitchell who was standing about 40
feet away was uninjured.
This is the first serious accident that
has occurred on the construction oil
the railroad UP the Columbia.

fer to little cut, one inch by two and
half inches, that Mr.. Corcoran fur
nished for the city and for which he
charged the city the modest sum Of
$500, cut which could be gotten
anywhere for four or five dollars.
The question finally came to head
by referring the matter to the city at
torney.
A petition signed by Fred Marble,
L. w. Woodrow, R. E. Marble, Jack
Close and others was presented asking
the council to grant them the privilege
of laying at their own expense water
pipe to convey water to their property
from the Tumwater Light & Water
Co.'S system. The prayers of the Pc
titioners were granted and the matter
referred to the street and alley COM
mittee, after which the council ad-
journed.

LARGEST GRANGE BUILDING
IN WORLD AT CASHMERE
Now Under Construction in Our Neigh
bering TOwn-Largest Member
ship in the State

The Cashmere Record Of the past
week says: Cashmere can lay claim
to having the largest grange building
in the world. This, with the fact that
it has the largest membership Of any
grange in the state, is going some in
deed. The new building now in the
course of construction will be three
stories in height.
At the meeting Saturday seventeen
candidates received the third and
fourth degrees in husbandry. following
which one Of the popular grange ban
quets was held. H. G. Bohlke made
a telling appeal for funds among the
members for subscriptions to bonds,
telling of the necessity for cooperation
at this time.
Subscriptions to stock are rolling in
rapidly, the people there taking much
pride in the new building.

ASBESTOS PROPERTY
ON INGALLS, CREEK
Local Parties Interested Claim to
Have Market for Product

Mark Bartlett, secretary Of the Mt.
Stuart Mining Co. was here Wednes-
day. He said he is now making his
headquarters at Peshastin and arrang-
ing to install tram at the mine. The
companies property consists of three
hundred acres of asbestos located on
ingalls, creek, about IA miles from Lea
venworth, of the chrysotile variety. At
the present time ninety per cent of the
asbestos of this grade used in this
country comes from Quebec, Canada.
This grade Of asbestos, says Mr.. Bart
lett, sells as high as $500 per pound
after being cleaned and freed from i'm
purities. E. H. Rothert, manager of
the steel plant has visited the property
and states that the company has a
mountain Of asbestos which is in place
and does not indicate slide. He
states the property is located in the
best known serpentine in the United
States, with the possible exception Of
Vermont.
Tale, which he says is a decom-
posed form Of asbestos exists on this
property in great abundance. Mr..
Bartlett says ready market awaits
both minerals.
Development work on the property
has been carried on since last October
without interruption. The organiza-
ton Of the company is now being per-
fected with the purpose Of putting the
company on an operative basis. John
Scott one of the large stockholders of
the company was in Seattle few days
ago getting prices on cable for the
tram which it is hoped will be installed
soon.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS POUR
ASPHALT ON TEACHER
Disciplined One Boy Who With CON-
paniOns Lay for Teacher on Way
Home

1t cost Russell Haverstick, Clement
Williams, Bunny" Wilder, George
and Van Sutton, Robert Mustell and
Harold Pinkerton, Cashmere high
school boys, about II years Of age,
$3.50 each for attacking their teacher,
Paul T. Prentis, who elected Pinker-
ton from the opera house during can
tata being given by pupils Of the
Cashmere public schools, last Thursday
evening.
Pinkerton was obstructing the view
Of spectators and acting in disorderly
manner and the instructor asked him
to desist. Upon a refusal to obey, af-
ter several warnings, Prentis threw the
young man out. Seeking out his
chums, Pinkerton sought revenge, and
while Prentis was on his way to his
room at the Bachelors club, after the
show, he was surrounded and over
powered. A pile of ashpalt which was
being used in improving the street,
was heated sufficiently and applied to
the instructor by pouring some down
his neck and rubbing it over his face,
hands and clothes.
Upon his release Prentis went to his
room, where he was assisted in clean
ing by sympathizing bachelors. The
next morning arrests were made Of the
captors, while a counter charge was
levied against the schoolmaster for
ejecting Pinkerton from the play house.
At the trial had last Friday even
ing the charge against Prentis was
dismissed and the boys paid $3.50 and
SIS for the damage done to their vic
tim. Prentis is a graduate OF Washing
ton State college and has been instruc-
tor in horticulture in the high school
at Cashmere for the last two years.
