Growth of the Automobile Business

In the year 1910 there was only
one automobile owned and operated
in the city of Leavenworth; in the
year 1912, five persons enjoyed
the pleasure Of giving their friends
joy rides in their own cars; while
in 1914, there are about forty anto-
mobiles owned and operated by per-
sons in this immediate vicinity.
That the automobile business
promised to be a good side line for
some person already in business,
was noted and acted upon by our
fellow townsman, j. B. Adams, who
organized the Leavenworth Supply
Company and built an office build
ing and garage combined in 1912.
This company is now handling
practically all of the automobile

supplies and repair work needed
by the motorist of the vicinity and
because of the ability and skill of
their mechanic, Mr. d. A. Burgett,
they are able to cope with any of
the problems facing the motorist
in trouble. Mr.. Burgett is a me-
chanical engineer and also an cleo
trical engineer and his services are
very much in demand. The owners
of cars who have toured outside the
valley often return and state that
we have here one of the best places
to get car repaired that there is
in the state, not because of an ex-
tensive plant and many mechanical
devices but because of the fact
that the work done here proved to
be well done.
The Leavenworth Supply Com
pany is also agent for the Sunbeam
brand of National Mazda lamps and
the American line of Electric Heat
ing devices. They carry a good
stock and supply practically all the
electrical device needs of the citi-
zens of LeaVenworth'

illinois City Leader In the Movement
and Its Advice Sought Abroad.
Chicago may be able to learn some
thing about railway terminals In Eu-
rope, but when it comes to another
great modern city problem all the
world can profitably go to school with
Chicago in the role of teacher. In the
matter of city planning endeavor Chi
cago is right up among the leaders,
and 1t is setting the pace In that line
for the other cities of America"
That Is the opinion of Richard b.
Watrous, secretary of the American
Civic association Mr.. Watrous asserts
that In no city in the world has there
been such comprehensive and ag-
gressive educational campaign waged
in support of city planning as that be-
ing carried on by the Chicago plan
commission.
In Illustration of the wide influence
of the work of the Chicago plan COM
mission a report is being prepared
showing the requests for advice and
information on city planning received
from Europe. South America, East In
dia and Japan.

SUVIUy'S Sheet Metal Works Does Large
Business

Since coming to this city about a
year and half ago, Mr.. C. w Seeley,
the proprietor of Seeley's Sheet Metal
Works, has been doing large part Of
the work in his line about the city.
Mr.. Seeley came to this city and
established his shop, believing the field
to be large enough for such an enter
prise. During the past season he has
contracted work on a number of build
ings and has much more in view that
argues well for his business which has
been opened a comparatively short
time.
He was fortunate in securing the
cornice and other sheet metal work
connected with such buildings as the
Barclay Hotel and Weigand buildings.
Electric signs are specially with Mr..
Seeley, having put up such as the
Violette and Grand Theatre signs. In
connection with his metal work he has
been very successful in bidding for
heating plants. Since coming here he
has installed twelve, which are giving
entire satisfaction, in addition to much
other work done during that time.
The sheet metal works is something
long needed in this vicinity and while
it is a comparatively new line Of bust
ness for this section the success of it
is assured through the high quality OF
workmanship employed in the manu-
facture OF the different lines.
Being young man Of the progress
sive type with considerable experience
we believe any one contemplating hav-
ing work done along the lines above
mentioned will do we'll to figure with
him before locking elsewhere.

Furnish leayenwOrth with Light

One of the most important of the
local institutions is the company
furnishing the city of Leavenworth
and vicinity with electric light and
power service. This company, the
Tumwater Light & Water Co., was
originally organized for the purpose
of using the water power of the
Wenatchee River in Tumwater Can
yon to furnish electric light and
power for the Lamb Davis Lumber
Company's large sawmill and plan
ing mill at this place.
1t was but few years until the
lighting of the sawmill and mill
yard became a secondary consider
alton on account OF the rapid and
solid growth of the City of Leaven-
worth and it being found that the
matter of handling a Public Service
involved too much work to be
handled along with the lumber
business, the Lamb people disposed
of the electric light company to j..
3. Adams.
Under the new management, the
efficiency of the service has been
improved, doubts and misunder-
standings have been cleared up and
the general feeling of the public
tow I'd this important company has
greatly improved.
This company has now been serv-
ing the City of Leavenworth with
electric light service both for street
lighting and residence lighting for
several years and there has been
no cause for complaint because OF
failure Of service, Interruptions of
service or other disagreeable fea-
lures. The one feature alone of
continued, uninterrupted service has
brought this company a large in
crease of business.
Beginning July 9th, 1914 the
company put into effect a new
lighting schedule, planned to bring
electric light within the reach of
every man and to help cut the high
cost of living. The rates now In
effect are considerably lower than
those in effect in any other city of
the size of Leavenworth in the state
of Washington and are already
helping to make LeaVenworth one
OF the best lighted cities in the
northwest.
A few years ago, necessity of
communication with the outside
world by telephone caused the COM
pany to install a telephone system
and effect a connection with the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company. There are now two long

The HeCtrifiCatiOn of the Cascade
Tunnel a Great Step Forward

When the directors Of the Great
Northern Railroad finally decided to
throw discretion to the winds, as far
as expense was concerned, and run all
trains through the Cascade tunnel by
electric power, the greatest step for
ward in the history Of that road since
its conception and building was ac-
compushed.
The real reason for this step was
the fact that coal or oil burning en-
gines filed the tunnel with gas while
pulling heavy trains through it, and
often caused delays, accidents, and
loss OF human life by suffocation re
sulting from mishaps causing trains to
be stalled or held for a time in the
tunnel. The installation OF electric
power for hauling all trains through
the great bore completely does away
with any danger from this cause.
And this innovation, while expen-
sive in first cost, pays greatly in the
long run, fer all power is generased by
water power, and of this there is an
unlimited supply in the Wenatchee
valley and the foothills Of the Cas-
cades. The power which is used at
present in the Cascade tunnel is gen.
Grated in the Tumwater canyon three
miles above Leavenworth, on the We
natchee river, where the Great North
ern has erected a $1,000.000 power
house generating $4,000 h. p. This
power plant is the most, up-to-the-
minute power plant in the United
States, having all the latest electrical
apparatus known, and is without
doubt the forerunner OF many other
such plants, which will make power
for all sorts OF enterprises cheaper in
the Wenatchee Valley than almost any
other place in this country.

distance lines running out of Lea
venworth placing the public in dir
ect communication with Spokane,
Seattle AMI other large centers.
In 1912 Mr.. Adams, president OF
the company, wanted a substantial
office building for the purpose of
housing the various interests and
the Tumwater Light and Water
Company now occupies one Of the
principal offices of this building.

GIRL FROM ATLANTA
IN FR|ENDLESS HOME

Myrtle White, who says her home
Is In Atlanta and who appears to be
member Of typical Georgia
cracker family, was taken into GUS
tody by the police last night and is
held at the Home for Friendless Wo-
men pending an investigation of her
case.
Myrtle cannot read nor write, al
though she is eighteen years old, and
the mere suggestion Of returning her
to her parents makes her both sad and
angry.
With a southern drawl she told
Prosecutor Keller that she ran away
from home because her stepmother
had mistreated her. She went to Gin
cinnati on ticket purchased by a
brother. When she heard that her
daddy" was trying to have the police
in Cincinnati arrest her and return her
to Atlanta, she says she packed her
small bundle of clothes and came to
Richmond. She says she likes Rich
mond and would like to work here.
When sent to the Friendless Home,
Matron Thomas promptly gave her an
introduction to bathtub.

RUbES TAKE BAIT
OF SHOW CROOKS
Police Describe Many Kinds
Of Fleeing Schemes Work.
ed Yesterday.

Toughest OUTFIT that ever showed In
Richmond" 10 the way the police to-
day referred to the Wild west sho"
which was in Richmond yesterday.
No arrests we're made because the
:"boOb-fleecers" connected with the
show were clever enough not to pull
or any OF their tricks in the presence
OF police officers. and because no COM
plants were Aled by their victims,
who number quite few.
Four men connected with the show
visited police headquarters yesterday
morning and got good line on the
officers In uniform and In plain clothes
who had been detailed to protect the
crowds. 80 the showmen were perfect
ly prepared to outwit the officers.
= The police heard that one game
worked on suckers" who visited the
side show was a fortune telling stunt.
told that his fortune would be read
for a half dollar. If the victim bit
he was first relieved of his half dol
lar then the palm Of one hand was
gazed at an instant, few stereotyped
predictions mumbled and the easy
mark then dismissed to make room
for the next victim.
Other "boobs" were lead aside and
then mysteriously shown diamonds"
(purchased for a dime at some five
and ten cent store), and in whispers
they were informed either that they
had been stolen or had been found and
would be sold cheap. Many fell for
this fake game. One game, where you
won a dollar II you tossed a ring
about 1t, was stopped. There was an,
other game, operated sub rosa, IN
which the victims had even less
chance Of winning.
A negro employe Of the show, one
hand off and an eye out. who had been
refused his pay, secured local attor-
ney to collect 1t. One of the officers
of the show promptly produced re
ceipt" supposed to have been given
by the man when he was paid off. 1t
developed, however, that the negro
could neither read nor write and he
finally secured his hard earned cash.
