BODY OF
CHAS. WILL
FOUND

The body Of Chas. VIII, Great
Northern trackwalker who disap-
peared June 10, was found last Sun
day in the Wenatchee river just below
the upper dam above Dryden.
The body was found by VIM. c.
Ross, +. NJ. Jellison and James Kieth,
who were in swimming above the dam
and one of them happened to notice
a shoe in some brush just below the
dam. investigating they found the
body. The coroner's office was mott
fed but Coroner Templeton was out
of town and Undertaken Jones, auth
orized to act, notified the Leaven-
worth Undertaking Co. to secure the
body and also had the sheriff 90 out
and view the body All Mr. Wills
pocket essions-watch. ring, etc.
were found and there were no indi-
cations of foul play, so that an in
quest was not necessary. The body
was brought here and burial was
made Monday afternoon, Mrs. Larson
of Cashmere reading the Christian
Science funeral and burial service.
Burial was made in the Leayenworth
cemetery.
Mr.. Will, as above stated, disap-
peared June 10. He had gone out as
usual on a Monday morning to walk
track and when he did not return in
the evening his wife and daughter
were alarmed and an investigation
was started at once. His dinner pail
and sweater were found on the rivers
edge a couple miles below town. No
other clue to his fate was discovered
until Sunday.
Mr.. VIII is survived by his wife,
Mrs. Minnie VIII, and daughter Mrs
J. Swain, whose grief over his disap-
pearance is in no small degree
assuaged by the finding of the body
and the solution of the mystery.

BIDS HIGH AND
CHANGES BEING MADE

Bis were opened Wednesday even
ing for the warehouse of the Leaven-
worth unit of the Wenatchee Dis
trict Cooperative association and
found to be higher than warranted
by the finances of the association.
therefore a meeting was being held
yesterday by the directors, architect
and bidders, with the object of chang
ing the plans so that a warehouse
costing in the neighborhood of $13.
600, could be erected.
Bids were submitted by Wm.
Smith at something over $15,70O. by
w. j. Moon at $17,305 and by A.
Lindblom at S17,437, but each of the
bidders had not bid strictly upon
the architects plans. Louie Spidel
had figured on the job but did not
put in a bid under the circumstances.
1t is probable that the contract will
be let at once under the amended
specitications

STRIKERS

The striking mechanics, boiler
makers and carknockers won on Sun
day-in game of ball with the Jap
boys, who We're shown where to head
in. The score was two for the Japs
and % for the strikers, who phara-
phrased the old North Dakota non
partisan slogan and said "We'll strike.
We'll win and all stuck 'er out.
Some of the strikers are old base
ball players. regular hasbeens of
course, but who through years Of
roundhouse and riptrack practice know
when to pull something and have team

But the next day they were in about

LOCAL LADY
SAYS TOWN
IS ALBRIGHT

Mrs. NJ. Mclnnjs and little daugh-
ter Ruth returned home Sunday morn
ing from months stay at Mrs. Nc
lnnis' former home, Vancouver, b. C.
Mrs. Mclnnis is a close observer and
a real booster for Leavenworth, which
she loves for its sunshine and glorious
surroundings.
As she states it, she was a pioneer
of Vancouver and saw the town grow
from little village to a great city;
saw people lose their heads as values
scared and saw them regain reason
when the boom collapsed. That city
in common with nearly every other in
North America, is passing through a
time Of shrunken values. People who
a few years ago were wealthy now are
in cramped circumstances. But still
there is an atmosphere of optimism
and the city is steadily advertised.
and what puzzles Mrs. Mclnnis is, as
she says, eff town can be made to
grow on fog and rain and advertis-
ing, why cannot one be made to grow
on sunshine and advertising? Leav-
enworth, she maintaines, has Just as
much chance for prosperous times as
any other town. If great cities are
experiencing dull times. how can
Leavenworth be expected to boom
We are passing through hard period
but in Mrs McInnis' judgment, the
worst is over and the outlook is
bright.
Mrs. McInnis says that al the depot
in one town which she passed through
in returning home she saw large
sign erected telling what factories and
business the community desired and
which might be established there with
success, and suggests that perhaps
we might profit by such a method of
advertising.

TOMMY RICH
ARDS DIED
MONDAY

The Echo has this week to chronicle
the death Of Thomas Montague Rich
ards, one of the finest and most re-
spected young men of the community
"a most exemplary citizen whose de-
mise is regretted by all with whom he
had come in contact in his years ser
vice at the depot and yard office.
Tommy-as he was affectionately
called by all-had been taken i'll week
before last and was removed from his
room in town to the home of his rel
atives, Mr.. and Mrs c. G. Smyth. on
the ranch just west of the city where
every service possible was rendered.
but he did not recover and he was re-
moved to the Community hospital, AMI
upon thorough examination il was dc
cided that an operation must be had.
The operation took place and ii was
then discovered that due to infection
from an abscess his recovery would be
doubtful. Still there was hope and all
that medical science could suggest and
trained care effect was done; but to
no avail; and the doctors saw the in
evitable end coming in spite of all
their efforts. The end came Monday
afternoon at about 4:30.
The deceased was 26 years and four
days of age, his 26th birthday having
been on Thursday, Aug. II. He was
born in England and is survived by
his mother and three sisters, all re
siding in England. Tommy had been
resident of Leavenwolth for ten
years, working up from call boy at
the depot to day manifest clerk and
weighmaster, and being also the yard
masters chief clerk. He was always
courteous and frank in his dealings
with everyone and no one in the ser
vice Of the Great Northern road at
this place or other resident of the
town was held in higher esteem.
When we were engaged in the great
war Mr.. Richards was called into the
service but got only as far as Camp
Lewis.
At this writing the body is held at
the parlors of the Leavenworth Under
taking Co. and Mr. c. G. Smyth, who
is cousin of Tommy's mother, has
telegraphed the family in England for
instructions, funeral arrangements
awaiting word from them.

MRS. HAYES

SHORT ILLNESS

Mrs. 0. b. Hayes of this city died

Z o'clock, at her home after short

"a years and months.

MERCHANTS LUNCHEONS.

Preparations are being made at the
J. T. Ahlin stand to serve merchants
luncheons and it is probable that they
will begin today
The popularity of this well-known
stand ought to insure its success in
the new line. The public is assured
that the best of service will be given.
Good food and cooked just right, is
what is promised and the Echo is sat
isfed that nothing will be promised
by the Ahlins which cannot be had by
customers
Their announcement will be found
elsewhere in this issue of the Echo.

SETTLEMENT
OF STRIKE NOT
IN SIGHT

The efforts of the Big -Four to bring
about a settlement of the rail strike
seem to have been Of no avail and
there Is nothing to indicate when
peace will be declared. In fact the
roads have taken the attitude that
rhey will fight the matter to d finish
and the men have no choice but to
stay out or submit. and this un-
doubtedly means that organized
labor's death knell is sounded, for if
one union is defeated the fight will
be carried to the others.
In the meantime the public suffers
from lack Of transportation.
The belief grows daily that were a
Rooseveltian character in the White
House Big Business would be called
to time and justice done to both
sides Of this controversy.

HOUSE ON RANCH BURNED.

The house on the Randall Heinrich
ranch on the Wenatchee river back Of
the Brender school, burned to the
ground last Thursday noon with all
its contents, and with no insurance on
either the house or the household
goods Of Charley Shoemaker. who was
living on the ranch.
When the fire was discovered Mrs.
Shoemaker was outside the door at
some work. She rushed in and bare
ly was able to rescue the baby in
safety. Not even a change of cloth
ing for the child was saved. Mr..
Shoemaker, at the time, was in the
field shocking grain.

Sam Met an Old Friend.

Sam Crofoot tells of once when he
felt Cheap" He was going down the
street in Seattle when he heard some
one say; Hello Sam" Sam glanced
about but kept on going. Again he
heard Hello Sam" This time he
stopped and looked all about and saw
no one near him who was giving him
any attention, so he started on, when
again Hello Sam" came to him dis
tinctly. This time Sam glanced up at
a window where he saw a parrot
which again saluted him with Hello"
Sam"

One Of the old timers, who liked an
occasional trip to Vancouver, had not
been across the line for a long time
and when he did go over the going
must have been good. He was saun-
tering down the street and noticed
man in an auto extend his hand to
ward him. The old timer, thinking
that il was some old acquaintance
whom he did not recognize, grasped
the hand in hearty handshake, and
was astonished to find that its owner
was very angry, having merely ex-
tended his hand as a signal that he
was stopping.

THREE LITTLE YARNS.
Art Got an Ear Full.

Engineer Art True was out for a
spin in his car recently when he over
took one of the striking carknockers,
and as Art was seemingly not recog-
nized by the carknocker that worthy
unburdened his soul as workmen
sometimes do, in lurid language as to
what he thought of the engineers for
not backing up the shopcrafts in the
strike.

FANS THREATEN BALL JUDGE
 WHEN GAME IS CALLED OFF

NEW YORK, Oct 5-A sensa- tional scene developed this after noon in front of the box occupied by Judge Landis at the Polo grounds following the announcement that the second game of the World Series would not be finished, after 1t had gone ten innings. Several hundred fans rushed to the enclosure and demanded to know the reason for stopping the game, and whether the club tickets would be good tomor- row.
 Landis endeavored to explain but the fans refused to listen and be- gan to boo and shout. Shouts If fight" filled the air and the police rushed to the aid of the aged ball judge. Landis was not looking for help, however, for he shouted to the officers, Keep away from me. I can get through any crowd in New York" Whereupon he raised his cane threateningly and attempted to push his way through the mob. with Mrs. Landis clinging to his arm and smiling at the incident. The judge finally forced his way to the club house.
