William McKenna and Lowell c.
Jones were sentenced to the penn
Tertiary for terms of one to seven
years each by District Judge Redick
yesterday. They pleaded guilty to
the charge of grand larceny.

say they did this at the order of
katleman, drove the car to Nebras-
ka City and left it by prearranged
plan On the east side of the court
house with the cushions turned up
sic down as a signal.

the court to take note of the five
months McKenna and Jones have
already spent in Jail and Judge
Redick ordered that this be con-
sidered as part of their penitentiary
sentence.
1--WE said during the Neal and
Katleman trials that McKenna and
Jones had not been promised
leniency and this proves it" said

forts accomplished, l will list some
of the supplies of Our division whe n
in the trenches nine months after
we had declared war on Germany:
Shoes Mostly English and
French. The English shoes did not
fit and were the cause of most of
our foot troubles.
"Uniforms-A great many British
uniforms, actually equipped with
buttons stamped with the royal in
sigma. Some of our men would not
stand this and ripped the buttons off,
but most of US were only too glad
to get the British uniforms, which
were far superior to the thin shoddy
American uniforms.
Caps Made in France.
"Caps-French. Manufactured in
France. Those later manufactured
in the United States were so rldicu-
lous that even the general staff
made no effort to force them on u.s.
"Airplanes-French and generally
condemned French machines.
ARTILLERY Horses - Condemned
French horses.
Field Artillery-French.
Signal Northumberland with
instructions written in French.
Captain Roosevelt also lists French
automatics and machine guns and
British mortars and ammunition.
The only entirely American equip
ment in the First division was rifles,
but he instances several companies
of unframed men coming into the
war zone with pitted weapons, which
he took to be condemned national
guard rifles.

cases, from the railrod, mills and
automobile accidents, and scarcely a
day passing that one OF more accident
cases are not brought to the hospital.
Two graduate nurses, the Misses
Bartron and Stone are in attendance
at all hours of the day and are pre-
pared to give the best of care to
those under their charge. All told
this little hospital under the efficient
management of DIR. Judah, has proved
itself indispensable to the community.
DIR. Judah is a graduate of the De-
partment of Medicine of the Univer-
sity of Indiana and has been prac-
ticing medicine for the past fifteen
years. Shortly after coming west
he took position with the Milwaukee
Railway Company, which at that time
was extending its line to the Coast.
For two years he had charge of hos
pital work during the days of con-
struction from Spokane to Seattle.

F. T. MOtteller Has Big Business

Conducting a warehousing business
in addition to being the leading deal
ell in hay, grain and fuel, keeps F. I.
Motteler busy these days. At this
time he has in the neighborhood of
10000 boxes of apples stored in his
warehouse and has crew of packers,
sorters and graders getting the ap-
Piles ready for shipment. The ap-
preaching cold weather and car short
age is forcing growers in this vicin-
ity tot find storage for their crop.
Mr.. Motteler says his building will
be filled to overlooking in a short
time. This warehouse is frost proof
and one of the best structures of
its kind in the upper valley. Mr..
Motteler has been engaged in the
present line for the past five years
and has been very successful. Just
now he is Mayor of Leavenworth and
takes an active interest in municipal
affairs.

Not the least in Importance among
the institutions of the upper Wenat-
chez valley, is the Leavenworth Hos
pital, owned and managed by DR.. J.
Stillson Judah.
There are Accommodations for ten
patients, and seldom is there a time
when less than two to six patients are
within its walls; on several occasions,
it being necessary to arrange for pa
TENTS quarters on the outside.
During the wave of Influenza, that
swept the country last fall, every
bed was occupied for weeks at time.
DIR. J. S. Judah has installed the
latest and most modern appliances,
and is prepared to handle the most
difficult of major operations, The
surgery is exceptionally well lighted
and equipped and would do credit to
a much larger hospital

cars for shipping and many of the
growers will have to store their crop
on their home place.
Wenatchee apple shippers are at
tempting to secure cold storage ware
house space in Seattle and Spokane,
in anticipation of the inability of the
railroad administration to provide
sufficient cars to move the crop to
the east. 1t is believed that sew
eral hundred cars will have to be
stored for the winter, in addition to
the 1000 carloads that may be stored
in the valley. The hope of the ship
pers is that box cars may be available
to take the apples to some nearby
point where cold storage facilities may
be secured.

THE NAXLE SALES co.
CALDER HERRING, Manager
Carries the Largest and Best Sc
lected Stock of House Furnishings
Between Seattle and Spokane

Calder Herring came here four
years ago with a shoe string and be-
gan painting and paper hanging in a
small shack opposite the viaduct.
From buying second hand furniture,
and refurbishing it for sale, was an
easy step into the furniture and house
furnishing goods line. On January
first last he rented store room in the
Bjork block, opposite the depot, or
ganized the Make Sales Co.. and
put in a stock of furniture. He kept
on widening out and adding to his
stock until today he has a large stock
of everything you would expect to find
in metropolitan store. In addition
to furnishings of all kinds he keeps a
large stock of wall paper, which he
buys by the car load, which enables
him to sell at prices that defy compe-
tition. He also handles paint and
paint brushes.
Buying his goods direct from the
manufacturers, in large quantities,
and paying cash for them, he can make
Seattle and Spokane prices and save
his customers the freight.
By strict attention to business he
has built up trade in the short space
of ten months that is truly marvel
Gus. If he continues widening out and
adding to his stock next year as he did
the past year, he will require more
room. The Make Sales Co. is one of
the solid institutions of Leavenworth.

More Apple Boxes Needed

The apple crop of the Wenatchee
Valley is over running all estimates
and it is believed that it will exceed
the forecasts made by as much as
20 per cent. AS a result there is
shortage of boxes all thru the val
ley. Coast manufacturers are be-
ing called upon to make quick deliv-
cry. All the warehouses thru the
valley are crowded due to a lack of

the road, he began looking around for
a location. Leavenworth looked
good to him and it was here that he
finally located That was nine years
ago. Since that time DR.. Judah by
his untiring efforts has built up one
of the largest practices in the upper
valley. He is progressive and has
erected one of the finest residences in
the city.
