Off for Montana

Mr.. and Mrs. R. E. Marble will
leave next week for Glacier, Montana.
Mr.. Marble has secured a concession
from the government as photographer
in the Glacier National Park, and will
likely enter into the same kind OF ar
rangements with the Great Northern
railway, since the company is now op-
Grating a half dozen or more tourist
hotels in the park, which by the way is
attracting large number of summer
visitors, last year twelve thousand Wis
tied the park and the number is ex-
pected to increase every year, as the
park abounds in natural beauty. Mr..
and Mrs. Marble will be missed by
many Leavenworth friends having al
ways been very popular among the
younger married people.

17,OOOO,O0O FEET
LOG DRIVE COMING
On the Way for the Big Mill-WIl
Get Here About Tenth of
June

About ten days ago Messrs. Adams
& Costello began their annual spring
log drive for the LambDavis Lumber
Co. The logs from Mason Creek,
Chewawa river and the upper Wenat-
chez river, which are now in the main
stream, will by the latter part of the
week be within few miles Of Leaven-
worth. There are fully seventeen mil
lion board feet in the drive, amply
sufficient to keep the mill running,
with what will come in over the We
natchee Valley Northern railway, until
compelled to close down next fall on
account of snow.
Mr.. Adams says his firm will likely
make one more drive, possibly two,
before the summer is over but the first
drive will constitute the principal part
of the 1913 cut.

PRISONER WOULD BURN
HIS WAY TO FREEDOM
John Gordon Sets Fire to City Hall Last
Friday-Says he Would Like to
Burn up Whole Town

A stranger who gave his name as
John Gordon confined in the city Jail,
came near losing his life last Friday
afternoon when he set fire to the blan-
kets in his CELL Other inmates of the
prison were the first to give the alarm,
and by the time officers arrived on the
scene the blaze had gained considera-
Bile headway. The man who set the
blaze was locked in a small cell and
the timely arrival Of the officials saved
his life. He seemed to be in de-
mented condition however, for no
sooner had the fire been extinguisbed
than the marshall was again summoned
to the Jail, where he found the fellow
in the act of starting another fire. This
time he had taken off all his clothes
and had piled them in heap and was
attempting to set fire to them.
He had been carefully searched for
matches after his first attempt to fire
the building but it is supposed that he
found one on the floor OF the cell. He
was not very we'll pleased when his
efforts to burn the Jail had failed and
in the presence Of the officers and a
large tbrong of spectators stated that
he would burn the whole town up be-
fore he got thru. even if he had to
come back years afterwards.
Gordon in company with his partner
whose name we did not learn was ar
rested by Marshall Woods about three
o'clock Friday afternoon for fighting.
He did not appear to be intoxicated at
the time, and it is the belief that he
was likely full of some kind of dope,
or else he was trying to run a bluff on
the marshall in the hope that he would
think him a bad man and turn him
loose.
The firebug was given hearing be-
fore Judge Grant Monday afternoon on
a charge of arson. When questioned
by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Whit
ney, Gordon could remember nothing
of having set fire to the building, say
ing he must have been drunk at the
time. Many witnesses were on hand
however who will testify differently
when the case is tried. The feeling
is strong against the man and it is
likely that he will receive sentence
of not less than five years in the peni-
tentiary. Gordon gave his age as 10
years although he looks much older
and says his home is in Louisville,
Kentucky. He was taken to Wenat-
chez Tuesday morning to await trial.

WILL BE DEVELOPED

Product on the Market this
Year

w. E. Bartlett, the discoverer, and
president OF the Mt. Stewart Mining
Co. was here the first of this week and
said that a number Of Cashmere par
ties had recently visited the asbestos
beds of the company in the vicinity of
Nigger creek, and were so favorably
impressed with the property that they
agreed to put enough money into the
enterprise so that shipment Of asbestos
can begin this summer. The end Of
the tram to be built will be eight and a
half miles from this place. Mr.. Bartlett
says that the company has an offer for
its product delivered on track here
that will give a good profit over and
above the expense Of getting it out
and hauling it to the railroad. The
material for an aerial tram has been
ordered, A. ]. McCarty, of Blewett,
has been employed to erect it.
F. o. French, road supervisor of the
Blewett district with a crew Of men
and four teams left Peshastin We'd

meet with the Blewett road near the

TWO OCCUPANTS FOR
new BUSINESS BLOCK
Corner Ninth and Commercial Streets
Ready for Business First of
September

Paul Weigand will let the contract
within the next two weeks for build
ing on the corner of Ninth and Com
mercial Streets, as announced in last
weeks Echo. 80x105 feet. The plans
are being prepared by c. F. White, of
Spokane, and will be ready for the in
spection Of builders by the first Of next
week. The building is to be very
substantial in every respect. Seattle
pressed brick will probably be used for
the two street fronts. The Ninth
street front is to be solid glass with
three entrances on the Commercial
street side.
The corner room, 35x80, will be
occupied by parties from Palouse,
Wash, who have a string of stores in
Washington, Idaho and Oregon, under
the name of Golden Rule" stores,
with a complete stock of dry goods,
clothing and women's wear. The
room on the alley, facing on Ninth
street, 25x80 will be occupied by The
Wenatchee Meat Co. who intend to
open a meat market as soon as the
building is completed. Both parties
have entered into long term leases.
There are two other rooms, 25x80 that
have not yet been rented but as sever
al parties have applied for them there
is no doubt that they will be occupied
as soon as the building is completed.
This will be the first new business
block fronting on Commercial Street
and now that building on this street
has begun it is more than probable
that others will follow before the sum-
mer is over. Two others are under
consideration.

RAILWAY Time TABLE
is OBJECTIONABLE
Schedule for new Train Service will be
Submitted to Railroad CO.-Wdnt
Train for Wenatchee Valley Only

At a meeting of delegates from the
commercial clubs OF towns between
this city and Mansfield who will be
served by the new train service to be
inaugurated by the Great Northern
Ry. it was decided that the railroad
company's proposed timetable would
be of no benefit to any Of the towns.
Leavenworth had no representative
present. After the other delegates
had expressed their opinion in the
matter plan was outlined which will
be submitted to the railroad company.
The Mansfield train which now
leaves Wenatchee at a. m. will be
asked to change the hour of depart
ure one hour later, at 8 O'Clock, and a
train be given the Wenatchee valley
for local service only.
The time table suggested for this
train would make it leave Leaven-
worth about a. M, bringing it to
Wenatchee at about s, in time for
passengers to change to the Mansfield
branch. The train would return to
Leavenworth Immediately and stay at
this place all day, starting on its next
trip to Wenatchee at about 7 p. m, and
returning at 1880 or II o'clock.
Sunday service, with no suggestions as
to time table, is also requested.
1t is believed that if the above time
table is adopted it will be OF more ad-
vantage to the towns throughout the
valley. 1t is also stated that if the
Mansfield train be run over the main
line, the schedule could not be kept
up, as under the present run delays of
several hours are common occurrences.

NO COUNT OF VOTES
IN PRINCESS CONTEST
This Weeks Votes Thrown Out Because
of Unlawful Appropriation Of
The Ballot Box

For one more week the princess con-
test will be at standstill as far as the
counting Of votes is concerned, which
is due to the carrying away of the bal
lot hox which stands at the entrance
Of the postoffice, by Tom Burke Tues
day afternoon. The disappearance of
the box was noted shortly after it had
been taken and every effort was made
to locate 1t without avail. At first it
was thought to be the act of joker,
but when night came and it had not
been replaced, warrant was sworn out
charging petit larceny. The officers
were put on the trail by meagre de-
scription given by Mr.. Steinborn who
conducts the popcorn wagon, and who
saw the man take the box and carry it
up the alley between the postoffice and
the Tumwater Light & Water COM
pany's building.
Late Wednesday afternoon Mr.. Stein
born pointed out Tom Burke to rep
resentative Of the Echo, saying There's
the fellow who got your box" 1t was
hard to believe at the time and moth
ing was done until Thursday morning,
when the identification was confirmed by
a telephone message, saying that the
ballot box reposed in the basement of
Mr.. Burke's house The battling case
which had pi,zzled local police officers
was finally solved.
When confronted Mr.. Burke admit
ted taking the box but defended him
self by saying that he thought it had
been forgotten and left there by somer.
one and he would take it home for safe
keeping. The box was formerly used
by the baseball committee in connec-
ton with selling tickets and was later
used by the city authorities as voting
box.
A large sign with four-inch letters
was standing beside the box at the
time Mr.. Burke carried it away yet he
says he never saw the sign and did not
know it was there until the day follow
ing, "Wednesday when passing by he
happened to notice it. Mr.. Burke
claims he was not interested in the
contest, and the act was committed
thoughtlessly on his part, which how
ever does not relieve the situation.
Since the disappearance of the box
we have had hundred or more in
quiries from persons wanting to know
what we intended to do, along with
many suggestions, and we finally de-
cided to burn all the votes in the box,
and not make a count until next Wed
nesday, which would be as fair to the
contestants as any way we could figure
out. This plan was carried out and we
earnestly hope that it will be satisfac-
tory to all concerned.
Since no contestant has the advan-
tage over any of the others it's up to
everyone in the city now to get busy
and help some young lady win the trip
to the Spokane Pow Wow. There is
plenty of time yet as the contest will
not close until Wednesday at noon,
June 18th.
