SUSPECTED OF INSANITY
Strange Foreigner Taken Into Gus

the County Seat

j. II. King, a foreigner and un-
known here, was taken to Pros
ser Tuesday evening by Deputy
Sheriff e. A. Ferrell and Prose
cutting Attorney Hal H. Cole, on
a charge of insanity. King was
taken into custody at the Fruit
& Produce company's store in
Finley by Mr.. Ferren and Chief
of police Copeland, who were IN
formed of the mans strange ac-
ti0ns by M. p. Davidson.
King came into the store and
made a small purchase but re-
fused to talk and acted in such
a peculiar manner as to arouse
the suspicious of DR.. Davidson.
After the officers arrived, King
still refused to talk and it was
not until on the train enroute to
the county seat that he broke
his silence. He gave his name
as j. H. King and produced his
naturalization papers whic h
were issued in Minnesota.

PASCO PLAYHOUSE OPENS
Large Crowd Attends Initial Per-

Theatre

Pasco's new theatre, the Cord,
was opened last Sunday evening
with a vaudeville attraction
from the Pantages circuit. The
little theatre is thoroughly
modern and completely equipped
playhouse and except for size is
the equal of the city theatres.
The interior decorations, light
ing effects, floor plan and stage
settings are all that can be de-
sired.
That the people of Pasco ap-
preciate the efforts of the men
who have built the theatre was
evidenced by the large crowd
which attended the opening per-
formance and paid fancy benefit
prices for their seats.
The management is endeayor-
ing to secure bookings of the
class of attractions which plav

Between dates of travelling COM

TO DEATH
FROM n. P. BRIDGE
j. L. Derway Catches Toe on
Bolt and Falls Down on Rocks
at Foot of Pier

A misstep cost j. L. Derway
his life about six o'clock Tues.
day evening while walking the
N. p. railroad bridge between
Pasco and this city. Derway was
coming this way and was walk
ing the 6x6 timber which is
bolted to the ties outside the
rails. AT the second pier from
the Pasco side he caught his toe
on one of the projecting bolts
end plunged headlong over the
side of the bridge. His body
struck on the ballast at the foot
OF the pier, which is not SUBJ
merged at this time of the year.
Death was instantaneous.
The accident was witnessed by
a stranger who was at the Pasco
end of the bridge. The affair
was reported to the Pasco au-
thorities, the dead mans body
was recovered and taken to Pas
co where a coroner's inquest was
held.
Derway, whose temporary
home was in Seattle, had been in
Kennewick for several days
placing agencies for patented
clothes line pulley and taking or
ders for other mechanical appli-
He had rooms at the Den
yer Rooming House together
with his partner w. H. Smith.
Derway's home is in Burling-
ton, VT, and he has a son living
at Hartford, Conn, and other
relatives in the East. He was
about 55 yers of age and a wild
over.

MUST GUT OUT THE
ROT AT \. P. DEPOT
Commercial Club Takes Action
to Stop Sale Of Inferior
Fruit to Travellers

! In order that nothing but the
very best quality fruit be sold
to tourists who pass through
Kennewick on the Northern Pa
cific trains, the Commercial
club has requested that the rail-
road company give it the ex-
elusive sale Of fruit at the depot.
This action was taken at the reg
ular meeting Tuesday night and
resulted from the promiscuous
sale of inferior fruits at the de-
pot, which has brought numer-
GUS complaints and given the
country much undesirable pub
licity.
If the request is granted, no
body but the authorized repre-
sentative Of the Commercial
club will be permitted to sell
fruits to passengers on any of
the passing trains. Chairman
w. r. Crawford of the publicity
committee said yesterday that
his committee had made ar
rangements to place on the lob
a uniformed salesman who in
addition to selling fruit would
distribute any booster literature
that might be of interest to the
traveller.

Present Plans Contemplate Stop
ping at Beginning of Worst
Sand to Finley
SUGGESTED THAT FIRST
MILE OUT BE SKIPPED
Commercial Club Instruets Committee
to Confer with Commissioners in
Regard to Change in Plans

An effort is to be put forth by
the Kennewick Commercial clul
to secure, if possible, a change il
the plans of the state highway
to be built out of Kennewick to.
ward Finley. The change sough,
is to begin the Improvement q
mile down the valley instead OF
at the city limits.
AS originally planned by the
county commissioners the road
was to be of water-bound maca-
dam and to extend practically
from Kennewick to Finley. Up
on recommendation of engineers
of the state highway department
the plans were changed to as
phalt macadam for the reason
that water-bound construction
is not practical with the mater
ial available. This change means
that with the funds now avail
able only about three miles of
road can be built. Beginning at
the city limits this will carry the
Improvement to the old Stuible
place or just the worst stretch of
place or just to the worst stretch
Of road between here and Finley.
For a mile out of the city the
road was recently graveled at a
cost of about $4,000. If the pre-
sent plans are carried out this
stretch of improved road would
be torn up and the $4,000 prac-
,ically lost. If, however, the
state road could start at the end
# the gravel road, the asphalt
construction would then extend
,ver the worst sand between
lere and Finley and the first
nile out of Kennewick would
rive satisfaction for some time
o come.
The matter was brought up at |
he regular meeting of the Com
nercial club Tuesday evening
nd by unanimous vote was re-
erred to the good roads COM
nittee with instructions to
ring the proposed change to
he attention Of the county COM
nissioners. It was the ouinion
t some present that all state
highways must start at the linn
IS of cities, towns or central
rade centers. If this is the case
ne present plans will probably
ave to stand as they are.

may quit the field with impunity
if it finds its business unprofit-
able or unremunerative, but it
may not do so in the face of a
valid subsisting contract with
ut making compensation.
1T may have been inadvisable
in the first instance to saddle a
power plant with an irrigation
plant perpetually, but this court.
cannot undo what has already
been done. The decree should
describe with reasonable GER
tainty the contracts subject to
which the sale is made, and in
my opinion the sale should be
made by the receiver and in the
receivership case. In this way a.
better title will be given and the
receivership matter will then be
closed"
The waterusers were repre-
sented in the case by Attorney
M. M. Moulton, of this city, and

other interests were represented
