Yet I do not forget that the Para

COLE YOUNGER IN ~
FIGHT WITH DEATH

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 29.-Show-
ing the same indomintable nerve
that made his early day exploits an
important part of Missouri history,
Cole Younger lies at his home in
Lees Summit fighting the one enemy
all men find invincible- death.
But even against this enemy Cole
Younger shows the same intrepid
spirit that makes his name a house
hold word from ocean to ocean. For
twenty-four hours last week he
was unconscious and his physician
feared the end was at hand. But
the aged man rallied and by sheer
force of will dragged himself back
from the very portals of death.
Physically, Cole Younger is a
broken, decayed old man on the verge
Of death. Mentally, he is the same
Cole Younger who rode Missouri in
the old days with a hundred detec-
tives vainly trying to trap him.

so MEN ARRAIGNE1
AFTER NIGHT ORGY;
SEASONS PAY GONE

East Grand Forks, Mimi, Sept. 20.
Eighty men were arraigned in the
East Grand Forks police court Mon
day, result of big celebration Sat-
urday night by hundreds of threshers
returning from North Dakota.
Stories told by many of the men CT
being robbed of amounts of from $50
to 5000, indicate crooks operating
among the threshers obtained from
$1,000 to $4,000.
Three hold-ups were frustrated by
the police, but it is thought scores of
drunken men we're robbed.
Probably not for years have so
many pickpockets operated in the
Northwest, and because of the fact
that Moorhead, one of the former
first chance" liquor cities, has gone
dry, many of the thieves have come
to East Grand Forks.
The men who told stories of rob-
berries were unable to supply details,
most losing their money while under
the influence of liquor.
Out of the eighty arraigned only
ten were given Jail sentences. The
others were threshers who had come
here because of idleness due to the
rain, who had their good
time" had spent or lost their sea-
sons wages, and were ready to look
for another job. $780,.

LEAVENWORTH TO HAVE BUT
ONE BANK IN THE FUTURE
State Bank AbsOrbS the Tumwater Bank
The Latter Closed Its Doors Sat-
urday Evening, Sept. a

While it was not generally known
negotiations have been on foot for
some time to eliminate from the bank
ing field in this town the Tumwater
Savings bank, which began business in
1904. The principal stockholders in
the Tumwater Bank were members Of
the Lamb-Davis Lumber Co. When
this company began operations in 1902
there was no bank here and it was
practically forced into the banking
business. For some years it has been
the policy of the company to discon-
tinue sidelines and confne all its ac-
tivities to the lumber business. 1t was
formerly interested in the mercantile
line but discontinued that several years
ago.
The negotiations came to a close
last Saturday evening after the arrival
OF State Bank Examiner Hansen, with
his deputy, Mr.. Moody. A final
checking up OF the affairs Of both ia
stitutons showed them to be in po-
sition to make consolidation, in truth
to be in first class condition, and on
this finding gave their official consent
for the immediate transfer OF all the
holdings OF the Tumwater Bank to the
Leavenworth State Bank. The COM
bined assets of the two banks represent
in round figures 100000. The pres
ent officers of the Leavenworth State
Bank are as follows: F. A. Sinclair,
president; L. F. Bulls, vice president;
R. B. Field, Cashier; C. A. Campbell,
assistant cashier; to which will be added
Mr.. R. F. Taylor, formerly cashier of
the Tumwater Bank, who will be as
sistant cashier in the Leavenworth State
Bank. Mr.. Bulls, the vice president,
has eastern connections which gives
him control Of quarter million dollars
for investment in this section whenever
conditions may require and justify the
employment of that sum.
The consolidation of banks has led
to much consolidation talk. The air
is full of it.

AUTOS WRECKED IN
HEAD-ON COLLISION
Occupants Escape Without Harm but Cars
Badly Crippled tuesday Night
on Cashmere Road

Two autos met in a head-on collision
Tuesday night on the Cashmere road,
near the Capt. Graham place. One
was Ford machine and the other a
REQ. The Ford car was driven by an
Ephrata man bound for Leavenworth
and the REQ by a we'll known travelling
man coming from Leavenworth, accom-
panied by young lady. Both men
attempted to turn into the bank with
the result that they came together with
considerable force. Both axles Of the
Ford car were broken and the front end
of the car considerably damaged. The
REQ had its lights knocked off and will
need considerable repairing before it is
fit for service again. Neither Of the
drivers sustained injuries. The lady
also escaped injury.

Sanitary Market BurgIarized-Not Quite

A man giving the name OF Bill Smith
got so far in attempting to burglarize
the Sanitary Market last Tuesday morn
ing about 1890 that he got inside the
building and was just about to rifle the
cash register when the minions OF the
law laid hands upon William Smith
and now he languishes in the county
Jail at Wenatchee waiting trial on the
charge of burglary. in the Superior
court. Mine Host More, of the Chik-
amin hotel, from his upstairs back
porch had watched the rather strange
maneuvers of William Smith whom he
saw standing near a window on the
alley side at the rear end of the mar
ket, and heard a scratching sound, as
of some one scratching on glass, which
proved to be correct on examination,
then he ran back to the street and not
seeing anyone in sight he ran back to
the window, hurriedly ran his hand
thru the broken glass and loosened
the catch on the inside and raised the
sash. Thru the window he went.
Then Mr.. More sent one Of his roomers
for the night marshal and while one
went to the front door the other one
guarded the rear. Bill Smith crawled
along the floor in an endeavor to reach
the cash register. The room is bril-
liantly lighted all night. When the
marshal entered the building Smith
was crouched near the back end of the
counter and pretended to be asleep.
He was arrested and the following day
had an examining trial and was sent to
Wenatchee on charge Of attempted
burglary,

MAKES RICH ORE STRIKE
ON HEAD CHEWAWA RIVER
Joe MaSSie Thinks He has Made the Best
Mineral Find Yet-ASsays Show
$50 to $500 per Ton

Joe Massie has been following min
ing off and on for many years. Some
ten years ago he found what he con-
sidered a good claim on the head of
the Chewawa river, which was bonded
or became tied up in the Chelan Con-
solidated venture. This particular
claim was never opened up or any
effort made to test its value. The
Chelan Consolidated having abanded
the claim Mr.. Massie relocated the
property and has done much work on
it the past three months. He has had
frequent assays made and they run
from $50 to 5000 per ton in copper
and gold. The property is located
about so miles north of Leavenworth,
on the headwaters of the Chewawa
river. The ore body is about four feet
wide with we'll defined walls. A good
wagon road runs to within fifteen miles
of the property, from there on there is
good trail. He has force OF men
at work and expects to pack several
tons TO the end of the road and from
there haul it in wagons to Leavenworth
and ship it to the Tacoma smelter.
So confident is he that he has one OF
the most valuable ore finds ever made
in this section that he intends 10 have
it thoroly tested, if it is necessary to
bring out a car load to make a thoro
smelter test.

URGES RELIGIOUS NOR
ATORIUM DURING WAR
1T is MOCkery to Ask Men with Blood
Lust in the Heart and Blood Stains
on the Hands to Approach the
Table of the Lord"

A Berlin correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press OF the 9th inst, says a
writer advocates moratorium on Chris
tianity,;' in one OF the principle re-
ligious journals of the fatherland. The
writer urges that in war Of this char.
acter, where ruthlessness of an unpar-
alleled type is displayed and where the
very rudiments OF Christianity are ig-
nored, it would be wise, if Christianity
is to be maintained, that it should not
be preached or taught during the con-
tinuance Of the war;
The writer, who states that he is
now serving at the front, says he is
convinced that war itself is an evidence
that for the time being evil is upper
most in the world. 1T is as though
one were obliged to lay aside ones hu-
nanity and to relinquish all that dis
tinguished a Christian man. 1t is
mockery to ask men with blood lust in
the heart and blood stains on the hands
to approach the table Of the Lord"
The fighting in the trenches, con-
tinues the article, is Of such character
that every feeling Of religion and every
inclination to pray ceases. 1T is not
Christian teaching that man wants as
he comes fresh from the frightful hell
OF the trenches. War is a phenomenon
which the church should not be able to
bless. 1t is opposed to every essential
OF Christianity and the sooner a mora
forum for Christianity is declared the
better. There should be no more
church nonsense about the ennobling
and purifying effects Of war. For hun
dreds of thousands of men at the front,
men who once believed in the faith,
the moratorium is already in effect.
When they return from the blood
soaked battle front, their Christianity
will be OF a different order, and they
will insist upon the church adopting a
different Christianity"
