BUR AT - THIS MORNING.

Put Up a Gabe Fight, But tlie ScampGot Away—May be Quickly

Caught.

Awakened by some one feelingcautiosuly about his pocket, F. H.Hall just saved his valuables froma very bold robber about 2 o'clockthis morning.

Mr. Hall was the guest of T. A.Sharp, who has rented the roomsover No. 20 North First street, andwas sleeping on a small couch in thehall at the head of the stairs. Heremembers waking suddenly to finda large man crouching over him andendeavoring to get possession of hiswatch.

Mr. Hall Immediately struck atthe robber and began to warm thingsup generally making a deal of noiseall the time.

Things becoming too warm, thethief turned to flee, but tripped onthe top step and fell to the bottomof the stairs, before Mr. Hall couldget to the bottom the man was nowhere to be seen.

A little search revealed the factthat Mr. Sharp was the only loser,a heavy gold watch belonging to him,which had been in bis trouserspocket beside his bed, had beentaken without disturbing him.

The police were notified at onceand are In possession of valuableclews.

HOW TO MAKESUITABLE GRATES

Chicago, II!., Sep' IS,To tbe Fruit Growers of Washington:

Ou all shipments of prunes arriv-

I ing and unloaded in tlie eastern auc-tion market this season the breakagein every car was excessive, due most-

; I.v to the poor construction and poorquality of the lumber used in the

! crates used by the growers from your

jsection.For the benefit of all concerned I

am giving herewith, a few pointersthat I know positively if followedwill result in shippers receiving from10 to 15 cents per crate more foryour fruit.

First of all, if possible, secureheavier lumber. Uoth the end piec-es and the side pieces now beingused are entirely too weak, andwhen loaded in the car the bottomtier always collapses on account ofnot being able to withstand the pres-sure.

For tlie sides aud ends and bot-tom of tbe crate use larger cementnails, lint in no case use cementnails for tiie cover. Very frequentlythe nails become loosened in transitand the natural result Is that thesides break off, nails drop out andcontents are spilled ou the car floor.If you are compelled to use the sin-gle strip on the side of the crate inall cases, put at least three nails Inthe side pieces, instead of two asheretofore, bul our experience hastaught us that the best results areobtainable by using two strips in the

side of the crate about the size of acommon lath. When using these,siderably heavier and thicker thanthe ones you are using now.

In addition to this, kindly remem-ber the following: It is imperative

that all cars should be top tired;that is, the top tiers bear a separate

stamp, as in all cases the top tiersare riper than the balance of the

fruit in the car. On our Californiashipments we use the rubber stampbearing a star, so that all of our toptiers are uniformly marked and easi-ly recognized. Would advise you todo the same in your district, using

one character to indicate all toptiers so that they may be looked for.

Your attention has heretoforebeen called to the necessity of mark-ing on the crates the size of the packof plums and prunes, whether 4x4,4x5 or 5x5. These marks should al-ways show on the manifest thatgoes with the car, as the manifest iscopied and becomes the catalogue,and therefore these marks appear onthe catalogue. There are buyers foreach of these different sizes and alsofor the ripe top layers, and they lookfor them and are willing really topay more for the fruit when they areable to get just what they want. Byall means avoid marking boxes withpencil; always use a rubber stamp.

This is of more importance than youcan imagine and I trust that eachone of you will see to it that in fu-ture seasons these suggestions arecarried out.

In loading prunes there willbe noobjection to including in each cara few crates of the small plums andprunes which will pack 6x7, but theymust be packed in baskets four tiersdeep, and must be marked on thecrates accordingly. I firmly believethat by following out the above out-lines we will be able to establish areputation, placing your fruit on a

It is but another evidence of thediminishing glory of poor Lo. Timewas when he could pick hops for a

month and earn enough to keep himbeautifully drunk for a couple ofdays during which time he couldlick and get licked with a regularity

that was simply delightful. Now allthere is left for him to do is to go

Series IIt--4111* Sunday).

Next Sunday will begin the firstof a series of five baseball games tobe played between the Yakima Colts,formerly the Yakima Tigers, whichsounds much better, and the Top-penish Indians. The first game willbe played here and the next at Top-penish. These games are for thechampionship of the Yakima, valley.Both the Toppenish and Yakimateams have defeated Prosser a num-ber of times and now the decisionlays between these two. Toppenishhas a fine team with some heavy bat-ters and the Yakima team has beenstrengthened in several ways and thegames will be exciting. Roy Shawdid not make the showing expectedlast Sunday, but with the reputationhe has as a hitter when he does getin some work at the bat he willmake things hum. His work at thirdbase was par excellence and showedthe fast company he has been usedto playing with. Tiger Ben gave hima chance to demonstrate what hecould do and kept up with the fastballs thrown to first. Red will play

center field and otherwise the lineup will be as usual.

Toppenish has Kruse, Ballesteroand Steele and with these men canmake the game mightly interesting.

These .urn Mr. Hearst, wiio\u25a0 running as 'he Hearst .amii-l.itc, and hopes for the (ndors*-nent of the so-called regular Demo-Tuti.- party, and District Attorneyferome. who Will run as an Independ-\u25a0iit Democratic randldiate, who is on ailatform which is merely opposed totearst, who Is, In Mr. Jerome's opin-on, "Intellectually sterile, sociallyrulgar and morally obtuse."

There remains ih<- nomination by theRepublicans for governor of New York,md then tlie campaign will be on. Siar as [he two Democratic- candidatesire concerned the campaign will beipectacular and pyrotechnlcal. Mr.ferome is s maker, not only of epi-grams, lmt of epithets, and Mr. Hearstiaa a brilliant and skyrockety phrase-naker. Jerome has already made anAddition to tlie American language

When he refers by inuendo to Mr.Hearst as an "o-topodiclde." If he\u25a0an add many more wards like that tothe campaign, the gayety of nationsWill be increased and the humor ofpolitics receive a stimulus. Jerome, itmay he mentioned in passing, declaresthat the tariff is a hard-times issue,mil says that, "like the poor. It hasalways been with us in periods of fi-nancial and industrial depression.'Hearst, on tlie other hand, is becom-ing sphinx-like, cryptic and oracular.In his "keynote" speech the other dayhe declared that he believed in "publicownership of public utilities," but headded: "I don't believe in privateownership of public property, nor inpublic ownership of private property."When he had announced this andpaused for applause a voice in the gal-lery shouted: "That is too deep foime." Is there any one for whom thatremark Is not too deep? On the tariffalso, Mr. Hearst announces: "I be-lieve that the protective principle is

valuable in Itself, but it has been un-reasonably extended and outrageouslyabused." and again he expresses a be-lief "in protection for Infant indus-tries." How old an Industry has to bebefore It ceases to be an Infant MrHearst did not declare. Probably, when

when he becomes president he willhave the matter defined by statute

Until then his expression is meaning-

less. The words "cautious" and "con-servative" appear frequently In Mr.Hearst's keynote speech, but, as a man[S judged by his deeds, Mr. Hearst'sJournal and American probably ex-presses the limit of his caution and-onservatism.It is evident, from the Hearst

speech and the Hearst syndicate pro-

sram. that the Hearst klfe Is out forMr. Bryan, as safe and conservative,
