was caused by the passing OF a train
on the railroad, that passes in front
OF the premises. The noise continu-
ing Mrs. Riste started up stairs and
was driven back by flames the entire
upper part OF the building being ON
fire. The family escaped with only,
the clothes they wore, and a few
chairs and sewing machine were all
tie contents it was possible to remove.
Furniture, piano, library, clothing, in
fact all their possessions were entire
Il consumed. The most serious fea-
ture is that Mr.. Riste carried no in
surance, hence the loss it total Fire
is supposed to have caught from a
stove pipe. The building was large,
well constructed, attractiyely situated
home, among the best country resi-
dcnces in the north part OF the county.
The Ristes are well known and have
many friends in Oroville, where Mr..
kiste had charge of the public school
as principal during one school year.

THOROUGHLY ORGANIZED

The ball club of Oroville has been
organized this year on a strictly bus
mess basis. In past years a manager
has been selected, who had all the
trouble of looking after and caring
for the funds, arranging games, and
locking out for the entertainment of
visiting teams. Usually at the end of
the season the manager was out of
pocket and the club in financial chaos.
This year board of directors has
been selected consisting of Dell Hart,
Vic Hagerman, Ed. Buzzard, Bert
Mills, E. N. Grubb and Frank M. Dali
lam. Prof. w. E. Courtnay is man
ager of the club and chairman of the
board of directors. G. l.. Armstrong
is treasurer. The aim will be to keep
a strong team in the field during the
playing season, see that visitors are
cared for, and arrange for meeting
all expenses that may be incurred. 1t
is the intention if possible to give the
public games worth patronizing, and
it is expected that at the end of the
season cash balance will be carried
over that will enable those who may
have charge of the club next year to
start out with sufficient sinews to
insure club worthy of the town.

VICTIM OF POISON OAK

Maj. F. p. Wehe has been a great
sufferer for some time from poison
oak or ivy, at least his condition is
attributed to some such vegetable
poison. His face and forehead are
AFFECTED, very much inflammed and
he has experienced much pain. We're
it not for combination of interests.
such as Memorial day and the ap-
preaching republican primaries, the
major would be in bed, but he would
brave all kinds of Inconvenience to
be up and doing in the interest of
these two events. For be it known
that the major is a veteran of the civil
war, OF venerable years, and a republi-
can who imbibed republicanism at the
feet of Lincoln. He has never waver-
ed in his allegiance, no matter what
false political gods others in his party
might follow. In the past the major
has always taken the initiative in De-
coration day exercises. Years are
telling on the old man, and while his
loyalty is as bright and his eager
ness for the benefitting observation
o. the day is as keen as ever he
leaves it to the younger generation to
take the active part in arranging and
carrying out proper exercises for the
Goth of May.

HURT IN A RUNAWAY

Last Thursday afternoon the usual
sadateness of the soporific east side
resident district, where anything out
or the ordinary rarely happens, was
awakened into life by a sensational
runaway. as a result of which wo-
man was severely hurt. An Italian
named Umbroth, living on Geo. De-
von's ranch, was driving into town ac-
companied by his wife. Near the
creamery the horses took fright from
some cause, dashing south on Bridge
street The occupants of the wagon
were thrown out and a wheel passed
over Mrs. Umbroth. The injured wo-
man was taken into the home of e.
McCammon, and DR.. Elmer summoned.
Upon examination it was found that
the woman had sustained a broken
rib, and suffered a number of bruises.
The team kept on the flight, one horse
falling into the ditch being dug for
water mains, but was dragged out
by its mate. Finally horses and wa
gon were piled up in one indiscrimin-
ate mass. Strange to say when the
animate and inanimate property was
sorted out it was found that the horses
had sustained no injury, the harness
was intact and the wagon little the
worse for rough usage.

MEMORIAL DAY EXERCISES
Grayes VIII be Decorated and Well
Arranged Program Carried Out

Tomorrow, the Both of May. will be
Memorial Day, and arrangements have
been made for appropriate exercises
to commemorate this national holiday.
The 30th of May was IA day originally
set aside for the decoration of soldiers
graves, and the object in view was
who gave up their lives while serving
the flag SO Loyalty and devotedly in
the dark days of the nations history.
1t was beautiful conception this
strewing flowers above the last rest
ing place of old soldiers who hal
answered taps, and it is we'll that the
custom should be kept alive lest we
forget what united country owes
those departed heros. Originally flor
al decorations were confined to the
graves of soldiers, but gradually the
practice has been extended to em-
brace the graves of the dead in gen
eral, and now it is the universal Gus
tom for all of those who have lost
loved ones to repair to the cemetery
on May 80 and strew flowers above
the narrow mounds.
For years after the close of the
civil war surviving veterans took
charge of Memorial Day exercises, and
marched in body to the cemetery to
show respect to departed comrades.
But now, fifty years after the close of
the war responsible for the existence
of Memorial Day, the ranks of the vet
Grams are so sadly depleted, and the
few survivors so old and feeble, that
the old soldier is not physically able
to take the initiative and assume ac-
tive direction of the exercise. Young
er men must now take up the work
and shoulder the sponsibilities. In
few years the last of the grand army
will have passed away, but Memorial
Day promises to survive with the life
of the nation.
The people of Oroville will ap'
propriately observe Memorial Day to-
morrow. Through the exertions O.
Chas. F. Sigrist program has beer
arranged The time consumed will
the exercises will be only about two
and a half hours, and during tina
period all the business houses in tow
should be closed. 1t is proposed t
decorate graves at 9: 45 a. m. At 10:1I

running OF trains through from one
end to the other the Oroville-We-
natchee branch was completed Monday
OF this week. The closing OF the last
gap took place at Pateros on that date.
There is now an unbroken stretch OF
steel between Orovi lie, on the north,
| and Wenatchee, on the south over
which trains can be, ana have already,
run. The formal and official driving
OF the golden spike, the sentimental
finishing touches to the work, by Pres
ldent Louis w. Hill, followed by the
inauguration OF regular train service,
ls not to be, according to pronuncia-
miento, until the first of July. Thirty
days must elapse before passenger
trains will be run over the branch, but
the physical finish of the long expect
ed, long hoped for roaa has been &C
complished. People cail abide in pa
attlence for the official opening so near
at hand, after having seen hope defer
ed SO long time. Why the hiatus OF
ldleness for over a month is not con-
dencended on the part Of the powers
that be, and it is taken for granted
that there must be good and sufficient
reason.
An instantaneous change for the bet
ter in business conditions is not ex-
pected with the opening of the branch
to regular traffic, but it will be d
potent instrumentality IA the upbuild-
ing of the Okanogan valley. No long
er will it be necessary to take a long,
tiresome, tedious roundabout journey
by rail or water TO get to one end or
the other of the valley, and more trav-
ell by rail to get fairly into it, but the
valley will be near to and in close
touch with the main trunk line. All
OF the travel to and from Spokane and
the coast will trickle over the branch
IN the future, and rs thai mea.rs
strangers will become familiar with
the richness and attractveness of this
section of the state, its charm of
scenery, it's wealth of products, it's
opportunity for home and fortune
building. Through these means will
the operation of the branch work to
the wellbeing and steady growth of the
valley and towns the valley supports,
tending to increase population, the
intensive cultivation Of the land and
consequent enlargement of the towns.
Benefits will accrue gradually, still SO
much more rapidly than heretofore
that the changes for the better will
be speedily manifested. That the
branch will be a great aid in the
growth and rapid development of the
Okanogan valley no one can doubt,
and for the branch, coming to finish
even at this late day, everybody is, or
should be, devoutly thankful.

A GUN AND SOME BOYS
4 Combination in Which There Are
Always Chances of Trouble

Sunday while Jas Prentice and his
son, r. l.. Prentice, of this place, were
at the Porter sawmill spur, near Mol
son, to make deal for wood, they
noticed three young boys coming down
side hill, two in the rear and one in
front, one of the former carrying a
2z-caliber rifle. They heard the gun
discharged, and the question asked
the boy in front if he had been hit. No
other words were spoken, and the
three youngsters passed out of sight,
the one in the lead limping. Young
Mr.. Prentice remarked at the time he
believed the youth had been shot The
Prentices were with a man whom they
were dickering with for wood, and all
three had driven to the spur in a wagon.
About the time they were to leave two
o. the boys approached and told a
fairy story of how they were coming
down the hill when some one fired a
shot, the bullet striking their COM
p''Hioh Ill Ine leg, ana asking IL the
men would take the wounded boy to
his home in the wagon When asked
if they did not have a gun they said
no, that one of the trio was carrying
stick. When cross-examined by the
elder Mr.. Prentice they at last con-
fessed. 1t appeared that the boys
were out shooting ground squirrels,
and that the gun was accidentally dis
charged. The men went a short dist
ance to where the wounded lad was
sitting down and found that the bullet
had passed through the calf of the
left leg, narrowly missing the bone
The plucky youngster never whimper-
ed. He was lifted into the wagon and
taken home. The name of the wound
ed lad is Mclaughlin, and he is about
Il years of age. The names of his
companions were not learned
