Game Warden Mullen has been In vestigating a report from the Moxle that a rancher there had captured pheasants In his possession, says the Yakima Republic. This report he found to be Incorrect, though the rancher, J. LeGasse, had a number of pheasants, and Mr. Mullen was glad to see them. The rancher, In work ing over a field which had been neg lected last year, found two pheasants nests. In each there were 16 eggs. The birds having been frightened away by the workmen, the rancher took the eggs home and placed the whole lot under one hen. In a few days 14 pheasants hatched and the hen then left the nest with the young ones and, of course, abandoned the other eggs. Thla means that one batch of eggs was fertile, as the other batch was too, but they were not of the same age, and there being no sec ond hen available, one brood was lost. Those that hatched were getting along nicely and seemed to take to the do niPHtlc conditions and their barnyard mother. The rancher was very much Interested In the birds and their wel fare, so as a matter of policy was encouraged. Y. M. C. A. Dedicated. With ceremonies befitting the occa sion, the new Y. M. C.

North Yakima automobile owners have expressed auch a readiness to participate In an automobile parade and race meet on May 30, Decoration day, that the plana of a meet for that day at the state fair grounds are be ing pushed, saya the Republic. The management or tne affair Is very anxious to do nothing which will In any way Interfere with the legitimate purposes of the day or to set up an amusement attraction as oposltlon to the objects for which the day has been dedicated. Neither la there any Intention to create for Decoration day a character never Intended. Grand Army services, the plana of fraternal orders and of private mourners will In no way be Interfered with. Such features as are contemplated, Involv ing the automobiles and their owners, will not be presented until late In the afternoon when other duties of the day have been performed. The day as a public holiday will have a great many people with leisure time on their hands and It la to these more partic ularly that the race meet will cater. After Artesian Water. ' i Ex-Senator Tom Sumner, of Ever ett, a man of considerable wealth and one of the best known politicians of the sound country, has. with several other Everett men, organized a com pany tq hold and develop land near Mabton In the Yakima valley. The company has acquired about 1200 acres above the ditches, and will at tempt to reclaim It by means of arte sian wells. They have bought an out fit and will go down until they rind flowing water, provided It is to be had within a reasonable distance of the surface. "This Yakima proposition looks nreftv eood to me." said tne sena tor to the Republic Monday, "and we expect to realize a handsome proru out of our enterprise." Most Deoole familiar with tne con ditions believe artesian water can be hart at Mabton. Several attempts have been made to bore for It. but the pro moters seem to have lacked capital m iro down more than 400 or 600 feet. North Yakima Republic. late William L.
