The ten days shoe sale Of the Mu-
tual mercantile Co. closed last Satur-
day. Between 800 and 400 pairs Of
shoes were disposed Of. Not SO bad
when the scarcity Of the circulating
medium is taken into consideration.
P. E. Galloway spent several days in
Seattle the forepart of the week. He
says while there he met Harry Hansen

house in this city who is now holding
down a similar job with the Milwau-
kee railway.

her daughter in the Columbia college.
Mrs. James will be absent month or
six weeks, intending to visit with rel
atives for several months.
F. H. Hutchings returned last Sun
day from Seattle where he spent a
week. He had besides his wife Mr..
Sam DAILY and made the trip by way of
Blewett pass and the Sunset highway.

grand. There is absolutely no danger
and the trip is worth anyone's while.
Rev C. A. Huff and family left last
Saturday for Terrell, Texas, where he
has secured a position in the new col

left Wednesday for Portland, from
where they expect to take ship for

may serve to keep the boys in the
middle of the road of righteousness.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. o. Newcomb of
Dardanelles, Wash, were registered at
the Hotel Barclay yesterday. While
in conversation with an Echo reporter,
Mr.. Newcomb, who is the general
manager of the c. A. c. Mill Co.,
located at the foot OF Lake Wenatchee,
said that during the month of August
they made record run, cutting $780,
900 shingles, and shipped II carloads.
The price Of shingles, he says, is very
low this year but the demand very
heavy. The mill is running night and
day and is big factor in the prosperity
of the lake country.
Mr.. Wilson Brown left Wednesday
afternoon for Portland, from where he
will go to Burley, Idaho, Where ne mas
secured a position in the high school,
and will have charge OF the class in
history and the athletic department.
Burley is a town of upwards of 1000
inhabitants and is located in the best
agricultural portion of Idaho. Mr..
Brown was connected with our own
high shoool the past year and could
have retained his position, but he is
interested with his brother in real es-
tate near Burley and thinks his inter
ests lie there.
Last Sunday was hot, just about as

a form Of diversion that has grown
quite popular. Some two dozen young
