City Council Takes More Time
to Consider Request of the
O-W. for Spur Track
CITY ATTORNEY SAYS 1T
CAN'T BE LEGALLY DONE
Hamlet Holds That Council Has No
Right to Deny Public Unob-
structed Use of Street

Indications are that the O-W.
R. & N. company's attempt to
come down Front street with a
spur track will again end in the
ditch, at least the proposition
has been temporarily side-track-
ed by the city council. The fran
chise ordinance which was up
chise ordinance which was up
for third reading, occupied prac-
tically the entire attention of
the council at the regular meet
ing Tuesday night.
From the discussion it is ap-
parent that although all of the
councilmen realize that this
street will never accommodate
much travel other than shipping
traffic, still they feel that the
spur should be built inside the
property line instead of in the
street. They hold that inasmuch
as the abutting property is
suitable only for warehouse pur-
poses the owners should be will
ing to grant the railroad per-
mission to lay it's tracks on the
property. The railroad company
itself owns one block of the
abutting property and a strip
across a part of two other blocks
would be sufficient to complete
the right-of-way.
The councils inclination to
look with disfavor upon the
franchise was backed up by the
city attorney, who held that the
council could not legally abro-
gate the public's right to free
and unobstructed use Of the
streets.
The spur is wanted at this
time to serve The Fruit Ex-
change warehouse and Manager
w. r. Crawford was present to
urge the passage of the fran
chise ordinance. The matter,
however, was continued in the
hands Of the.ordinance commit
tee with instructions to investi-
gate and report more fully at the
next regular meeting.

CONTRACTORS WIN
RACE WITH RIVER
Gravelling of Second Street is
Finished before Crossing
is Flooded

The race between the rising
waters of. the Columbia river
and the II. l.. Wilson company
ended in a victory for the latter
Monday evening, just in time to
allow the contractors to finish
gravelling three blocks on Sc
cond street before the crossing
to the gravel pit on the island
was submerged.
While awaiting the arrival of
the asphaltum oil, the company
now has its crews busy hauling
sand which is to be used in sur
facing the street.
The contractors estimate of
$1,000 for work already COM
pleted was reduced to 81 200 by
the council Tuesday evening, 25
per cent of which sum is with
held until the job is completed
and accepted by the city.

HON0RS EVEN N
THE COUNTY LEAGUE
Competing Teams in Debating
Series Win and ubse Same
Number Of Contests

Z Debating at Kiona last Fri
day night, the county league
team of the high school won a
close decision over the Kiona de-
Eatcrs on the negative side of
the question, Resolved, That
the U. S. ought to own and op-
crate all telephones and tele-
graphs as a part Of the postal
system of the y. S. -constitu-
tionality granted" The local
team was composed of Miss
Ruth Cresswell, Elwin Brace and
Ralph Dague, while their oppo-
nents were Miss Amy Kelso, W.
an Travis and Freeman Gibson.
AS under the rules of the coun-
ty league there is only one judge
the decision was rendered by
Professor Brenneman, of Rich
land.
The contest was an exciting
one, as debates go, several of the
speakers being accorded hearty
applause by the audience for the
fine debating spirit shown. The
KiOna team was an able one and
has won the majority of it's con-
tests this year, having won a to-
tai of three out Of four debates.
The decision in the present con-
test was based upon the infer
ior service rendered by govern
ment-owned systems and the
possible opportunities for polit-
ical corruption, as shown by the
negative, rather than on the
cheapness of government service
as shown by the affirmative.
This contest leaves honors for
the county championship a tie
for this year, each team repre-
sented in the league having won
and lost the same number of de-
bates. AS the season is late and
a number of contests would be
required to decide the winners,
no championship will be award
ed this year.

BIG MUSICAL event NEXT WEEK
The Kennewic Choral Society Will Present Suans Prodgal

ciety at the high school audi
toriium next Tuesday evening.
The local singers will be assisted
by a number of the best voices
from the Pasco society and by.
artists from Spokane. It is not
often that the people Of Kenne-
wick have an opportunity to
hear a work of this kind given
by some of the Northwest's lead
ing soloists. These people have
had long experience in oratorio
and concert work, both in their
home cities and as assisting ars
lists in various parts of the
country.
Prof. E. D. Kennedy, of Spo-
kane, who mas directed both the
Kennewick and Pasco societies
has worked hard not only to in
sure the success of the coming
attraction but to lay the founda-
ton for one of the best small
community musical organiza-

success of Tuesday evenings

OIL RICHLAND ROAD

The county last week oiled the
Richland road from the Kenne-
wick city limits to the waste ca
nal, a distance of about three
miles. The oil treatment was
tried by the commissioners as an
experiment and if it proves sue
cessful the road will probably be
treated in a like manner clear to
Richland.

chosen as the text of a sacred
musical composition. The story
is so natural and pathetic, and
forms so complete q whole. The
characters, tho few, are SO per-
fectly contrasted and the oppor-
itunity for the, mployment of To-
cal color is so obvious, that it is
indeed astonishing to find the
subject so long overlooked.
s'In the treatment Of the mar
rative the prodigal himself has
been conceived, not as Of a nat
urally british and depraved dis
position-a view taken by many
commentators with apparently
little knowledge Of human ma
ture, and no recollection of their
own youthful impulses; but ra-
ther as a buoyant restless youth,
tired of the monotony Of home,
and anxious to see what lay be-
yond the narrow confines of his
fathers farm, going forth in the
confidence of his own simplicity
and ardor and led gradually
away into follies and sins which,
at the outset, would have been
as distasteful as they were
strange to him."
This, in substance, is what
the composer says of his con-
ception of this work. He has in
deed followed this idea to a very
happy conclusion and at the
same time produced tuneful har-
monies.
The program follows:

Plans for the second amateur

ing apace, according TO Manager !. H:

been set for Friday of the present
week; which night will probably be
retained for that feast of pleasure

of the unsuccessful offerings % last

attempt to get over" on FRIDAY night,
and towards this end have been put
ting in some hard ticks at rehearsals.
Several offers of new acts have
been received at the Bijou office, all
OF which will be given trial before
Friday nights audience, the audience
to be the judge of the merits OF the
acts and to act as the sole judge of
awards. - ........ ....
Magoon is anxious that any and all
amateurs, who believe they have some
thing worth while, will set in touch
with the theater at as early moment
as possible, as it is his desire to make
the program one of variety and enter
tainment. The amateur performance
will be an added feature to Fridays

new PALACEOF
SWEETS TO Open
next SATURDAY
Well Equipped Confectionery
Store at King and Maunakea
Streets Will Open Its Doors

Saturday morning, July 8, will wit
hess another step in the industrial de-
velopment of Honolulu-the opening
of the Palace of Sweets, a handsome
ly furnished confectionery store.
The Palace of Sweets will occupy
the large corner store room on the
Ew makai corner of King and Maui
nakea streets. The equipment en-
bodies the latest and most modern fix
lures to be seen in this city. II. .
The fountain is of the latest approx
ed design executed in artistic marble.
The back mirrors are set in beautiful
ly tinted antique ivory panels of ex-
ceptionally attractive blending.
The name, Palace of Sweets, is art
istically worked out in loaded art-glass.
behind which an electric light is set,
affording very pretty effect by night.
The serving facilities of the foun-
tain proper comprises every conven-
fence which makes for sanitary dis
pensing of the usual refreshments to
be found in confectionery stores.
A particular feature of this new es-
Enlistment will be the luncheonette
counter, where light lunches may be
had In this connection the provisions
for the proper iceing of that which is
to be served are worthy of mention
Adequate is quite the word for it; the
arrangement is SO ingenious that just
that which is desired to be may be
kept cold, although many other things
may be kept in the same cabinet. The
box-tin drawer for butter, which hangs
directly in the ice compartment and
may be drawn out in the same manner
as the other drawers, is an accomp-
lishment in itself. Every compartment
and drawer in this cabinet is metal
lined and perfect fitting, assuring free.
dom from all manner oT vermin. -.
The interior decorations in general
are well worth seeing. Everything is
cleverly arranged and the color ef
fects are strictly in keeping with the
atmosphere" of business of this ma
ture. On the opening day, states T.
M. Kon. manager, an orchestra will
render an appropriate musical pro-
gram. Mr. Kon further states that in
opening the Palace of Sweets next
Saturday morning his company will
be fulfilling a long-felt want in this
community, that OF providing place
where. private parties may assemble
and hold light luncheons in semi-pri-
vacy at a slight cost r. -. ~. -
This establishment will also cater
to weddings and all kinds of enter.
