MIRES SPRINGS, MOUNT TA
COMA, Wash., July 29. —The Yakima
Y. M. C. A. party made a successful
ascent of ML Tacoma and returned
at 3 o'clock this afternoon. All not
back safely and had a fine trip. This
information was received by courier
from Paradise valley, on the bo nth
side of Mount Taeoma, from which
point all suoh parties make then
start.
The party consisted of Harry A.
Cook, the athletic director of the
North Yakima Y. M. C. A.. J. How
ard Green. Douglas Corpron, Rolfs
Whltnall. Wallie Reed. Noel Thomp
son, Curtis Gilbert, Ben Schmidt, C
D. Eckstein. G. N. Angell, C. B. Ar
nold and Ted Hackett. the last named
master of the pack train.
Paradise Valley
The party reached Paradise valley
early Saturday after a ride over the
mountains, and went into camp at the
Camp of the Clouds, at an elevation
of nearly 7000 feet. There was snow
on every hand, as well as myriads of
flowers. The tents were pitched
among gnarled trees that for count
less winters hud borne immense bur
dens of snow, and in sight of the
great crest that lay invitingly to the
north. The Paradise river, having as
Its source the glacier of the same
name, flowed not far away, its icy
waters refreshing man and beast.
The Climb
It was quite a climb up onto the
snow fields above the Camp of th^>
Clouds. The little party, Just right
for numbers, and containing no
weaklings or women to hinder the
inarch, made their preparations lor a
climb in the moonlight, when the
sun's reflected rays would not burn
and blind the climbers. An experi
enced guide, one of three on tho
mountain, had every man fill his
shoos with the heaviest of logger's
calks. Thus equipped and with al
pine stocks, canteens and some light
lunch, the party started at 10:25
o'clock Sunday night. The long march
over the snow fields leading to Camp
Muir dimily displayed the wondero
of this wonderful region, the moon
light being brilliant enough for the
party to easily pick their Way along
and to see for miles in every direc
tion. Occasional glimpses could be
had of the peaks to the south. Mount

Informers Fear Death
The gambler's whose statements
are said to have caused the indict

not to be taken back to the Tombs
tonight, declaring they would be

them in retaliation of their testimony
if they returned to prison.

detectives asserted that Rose told the
grand Jury of being forced to arranee
for the killing of Rosenthal under
threats of being "Jobbed" by the po
lice and sent to prison on manufac
