ATTACKED BY MOB
American Soldiers Brutally Treated by
Japanese in China

4
Washington, April 10.-Americar
soldiers were brutality attacked By 3
mob of Japanese soldiers and civil.
ans in Tientsin, China, who unlawful,
| ~ invaded the French concession there
Tor the express purpose of seizina
and beating every American--whethaH
soldier or civilian-they could find.
This and many other facts concern
ing the recent clash ii the ChiresH
city were made known in Washington
yesterday, but the State Department
declined to discuss the matter, saying.
that it awaited complete repor.
from the japanese government.
Indeed, it was intimatcd that il
view Of the rather delicate situation
it would be better to treat the maj.
ter lightly for The present at least.
The start OF the trouble, it was
learned, began with the publication N
Niehi Nichi, a Japanese paper, of an
account detailing the refusal of Amer
lean troops to fight with Japanese
soldiers in Siberia.
This article, which declared 'Amar-
leans favor Bolsheviki." reached Ten
..sin and infamed the japanese popu-
Lace there, and the first opportunity
for violent aggression against Amer
leans was soon taken.

FEARS FRUIT HAS
BEEN HARD HIT.

In the fall, Ben Teen, Wenatchee
fruit buyer, took over about all the ap-
pies raised in the Sinlahekin valley
around Loomis. These apples were
shipped to Oroville, where they were

handling of this kind of fruit. Mr.
Roderick informs us that he had re-
ceived word from Mr.. Teen at We
natchee, Friday last, that the cold had
reached "a degrees below zero at that
place, and it was feared that the peach.
apricot and sweet cherry crop throu-
ghout the valley would be Mill neXt
year. OF course, such predictions at
this time are merely guess work, but
the chances are that the soft fruit has
been very materially injured by the
extreme cold. Press reports state that
the growers of the Yakima valley eX-
pect a total loss of soft fruits for the
coming year. So far the cold has not
been severe enough to jeopardiZe the
soft fruits of the upper Okanogan
valley. but if the cold of the past six
weeks is an indication of what can be
expected later in the winter the
chances are that this locality will also
suffer considerable if not total loss.

WOOD HIGH AT
BREWSTER.

w. F. Mahood, formerly resident OF
this locality but now owning an orch-
ard tract near Brewster, was in town
Monday. Mr.. Mahood was up here for
the purpose of buying wood. Wood is
a scarce article around Brewster, and
so expensive that it is almost neces-
sary to hand out the weight or the
wood in money in order to get hold OF
any. OF course the wood was not pur-
chased in Oroville. but on the hill, east
of town. the source from which the
greater portion of the wood burned in
the valley is drawn from. Mr.. Mahood
purchased three car loads. That Will
not last great while in the COM
munity where he expects to slough
most of it off, but it represents quite a
lot of cash based on the retail price
of the fuel at the south end OF the
county. Mr.. Mahood states that wood
at Brewster commands from $14.OO to
$1,000 cord. AS matter Of fact wood
is not worth that sum in country as
near timber as Brewster, but when
the mercury is lowering around zero,
and lower, the man who wants to keep
warm is not wasting much time dick
ring over prices. He wants wood, must
have wood, and the matter of cost does
not stand in the way of the invest
ment.
