Nine Years Ago today
Being Items of Particular Interest taken
from THE COURIER Volume No. J

William Dircksen and Gus Wilkie
went to North Yakima the first of the
week to see about arranging for a
supply of ice for this summer. They
will handle the ice business for this
section.
Alonzo Hunt has resigned as city
treasurer, and H. A. Bier has been
appointed to fill the position. MIR. Bier
served three years in this capacity in
Ritzville.
What appears on its face to be one
OF the most extensive irrigation schemes
contemplated by private capital in the
Pacific Northwest came to light this
week with the return to this city of C.
G. Wands, the well-known civil engin-
eer, accompanied by George Nelson, of
Seattle, well-known contractor. The
two men left this city Saturday, Feb.
21st, for the big Klickitat River in the
foot hills surrounding Mt. Adams.
They went for the purpose of locating
water appropriation, copy of which
was filed with the county auditor Mon
day., The proposition, in brief, is to
take water out of the big Klickitat
river to irrigate the highlands of the
Horse Heaven plateau. tits perfectly
feasible, they say. It is estimated
that not less than three hundred thou
sand acres of land would be reclaimed.
Last week deal was consumated
which will be of more than passing in
terest to this place. 1t means nothing
less than the foundation has been laid
for Kennewick to become a manufac-
turing town. The affair was brought
about by the alertness and energy of
H. A. Hover and H. S. Anon, who are
ever on guard to let nothing of interest
TO this place escape. A factory where
a combined harvester and thresher will
be manufactured, will be built. The
cost of the plant will not be less than
$4U,OOO. An agreement has been en-
tered into between L. B. Mack and
Messrs. Hover and Anon to locate the
factory at this place. The factory will
contain foundry, machine shop and
wood working establishments and all
Incidental appliances for working them.
When in operation, the factory will
employ regularly 40 to 60 men. L. Mack
the inventor, now resides at Spokane.
The machine is combined harvester
and thresher, is run with eight horses
and cuts a swath twelve feet wide.
Last summer couple of the machines
were built and given a thorough test in
the wheat belt in the Palouse country.

Arab HaqqIinq.

Alan Ostler in 1.-THE Arabs In Tripo-
Ii" comments on the amusing haggling
scenes in the desert plumber market
when loot of war was the merchan-
disc.
"Why do you not sell at set price to
all alike?' he asked a merchant. "But
why?" said he. IF l can get but half
a crush the more from one Of them
than from another, is 1t not gain?'
But that wastes time, for while you
bargain with one you might have sold
to three. They say with us, Time is
money" ooh, folly" he retorted scorn-
fully. thine is Gods and given freely
to all men, so that all have it alike.
But with the f1us one has much, anoth-
er none, and you must take what you
can get"
To haggle with any one is a joy to
the Arab. But mutual trust he lacks.
II have known two men," says Mr.. o.
tier, farm partners, walk eight miles
to a market with three scrawny hens
to sell. Both must needs go, for nei-
Their would trust the other not to cheat
him."

Lodge & Society

The Lavendar Twelve Club met at
the home of Dorothy Mann, Saturday
afternoon. The. little company of girls,
just for the novelty of it, decided to
walk out, but they all, ten of them,
came back with May Holloway in the
two-seated buggy. During the bust
ness session it was voted to send for
pins. The club also de-
cided not to hold a meeting for three
weeks and at the end of that time to
take tramp down the river for picnic.
The remainder of the afternoon was
spent in a social time after which re-
freshments were served.
The regular session of the Rebekah
Lodge was held Tuesday evening.
After the business, all turned their
attention to help entertain the four
who had birthdays recently, Mrs. Cora
Reed, Mrs. Mae Shanafelt, Mrs. M. j.
Censor and Mrs. Chas. Conway being
the honored ones. There was an
enormous white birthday cake with a
pink candle in each corner, which
created good deal of amusement, for
eacn one was asked to give her age as
she Die" out the candle. After the re-
ifeshments, the remainder of the even
ing was spent at cards, music and
| dancing.

The Speed of Animals.

According to naturalists, no animal
is known to have exceeded the speed
attained by the famous race horse
Sysonby. Instantaneous photographs
show the full length of one complete
stride as about twenty-six feet In
the stride of the fastest racers the
hind quarters and the limbs are raised
considerably higher than the shoulders
and from this relatively great height
brought downward and forward, wide
ly separated from each other, as
sportsman says, 'to avoid striking the
fore legs" The hare which is hunted
with fast hounds has not in reality the
speed of the dog. The dog. on the
other hand, does not attain the speed
of the horse. The giraffe is said to
run at the rate Of fifteen meters yards,
per second under the most favorable
conditions. The elephant, going at the
rate of two yards a second. carries
weight approximating that carried by
six hOrses.-Harper'S.

to the corn and cabbage, perhaps $40

that amount was rendered he would

"Now you get up there and give US

We've got Jepson on the skedaddle."
There was no hot talk from the wild
ow. On the contrary, she cooed like a
dove. She admitted to the ownership
Of the jumping. predatory cow. but
was quite willing to pay reasonable
damages. She didn't doubt the plain
tiff's shocked feelings and was sorry
for them and wished he had hit the
old cow with the ak. One of the re-
suits of the suit was a verdict for 6
cents damages, and another was that
Farmer Jepson would call at her home
for the money. He kept his word. &
week later he drove up to the door and
after an hours interview was asked
to call again. Three months later his

An Interested Listener.

Mark Twain one rainy day found
himself in room in his club which
contained only one other occupant. The
two men drifted into conversation.
Mark began discussion on the merits
of ''Tess Of the d'Urbervilles," and
made brilliant deductions as to the
character and personality Of the writer
of TESS" from what he called the
internal evidence of the story. His
listener at times mildly dssented. but
on the whole maintained an attitude Of
impassivity.
When "Tess' had been labeled ONLY
passable. Mark Twain's chance ac-
qualntance excused himself and de-
parted. Calling the smoke room at
tendant Mark Twain asked him whom
he had been conversing with.
That's MIR. Thomas Hardy, sir!" re-
piled the steward impressively.
