pick hi envelope from the many If he
could, with a forfeiture to any succesa
f nl number. Judge Wttten motioned to
Harvey Ham, on of D. T. Ham, and
Georfre S. Canfield, both of Spokane,
to Mart the work of mixing the 106,000
envelopes with the pitchforks provided
for the ocacslon.
From top to bottom, and from slda
to side, the mass of envelopes was
stirred and mixed, ard at the word from
Judge Wltten Miss Hamilton walked to
the center of the platform and picked
the first winner. The envelope wa
passed to Judge Wltten. who. In turn,
gave It to Miss Berntce Grefe, one of
the Government clerks, and not until
he silt It and passed It on to Hazel
Wltten. daughter of Judge Wltten. who
took it from the yellow covering; and
handed It to Assltant Superintendent
Fist on. who. In turn, handed It to Judge
Wltten. who read the name and de
scrlptlon aloud, was the first name to
draw the choice claim In the thousand
of acres known. It was the name of
Isadore Sellg, of Myrtle Creek. Or., who
was not present at the drawing.
Spokane Men Are Lucky.
Spokane residents In the persons of
Jnnn Hedmark and Charles G. Crom
well were the next two to follow In or
der named. At this juncture A- H. Rat
teree. of Little Rock, Ark., a profes
sional "talker," was called to the plat
form and started the task of reading
and crying aloud the S00O names which
will be drawn from the 105,000 appllca
tlons.
To keep the crowd, now standing In
the broiling sun of high noon. In good
humor. Judge Wltten stopped the draw
incr at Intervals long enough to "Josh"
with the women who drew claims and
to tell stories of his past experiences
in the land drawings of Government
reservations.
Assistant Superintendent Klston was
the man behind the flashing of the
news of the winners to the ends of
the land. As every envelope was
opened the application was passed to
htm, after being duly numbered, and he
began reading the names for the sec
ond time aloud. In order that the news
paper men and press representatives
could get accurate details. This phase
of the "rush" work of the drawing dis
posed of, messengers were dispatched
with the valuable slips to the Land Of
fice. up town, and there a corps of
clerks and stenographers began the
work of listing the names in numerical
order and posting them outside the
I.and Office.
After two hours of hard work. In
which Miss Hamilton and aids almost
baked In the hot sun, 500 names had
been drawn from the Conglomerated lot
of 105,000. An Intermission of an hour
was taken, during which time an awn
ing was raised over the platform and
preparations made for the afternoon
drawing.
No Irregularities Found.
The afternoon drawing began at 1
o'clock and throughout the day not
ringle Irregularity of note was found. In
several Instances, where notaries had for
gotten to sign their names, excitement
arose, but was soon quieted when Judge
itten announced that he had the seal
and signature of every notary on file at
his oftiee where he could verify any de-
TfCtS.
In one Instance Charles A. Johnson, of
Bradford. Pa., forgot to put the name of
his state when he made out his appll-
cation, but when the occurrence was
announced by Judge Wltten Johnson
came forward from the crowd and Iden
tified himself and had the necessary
name of the state added to the applica
tion by Judge Wltten. His application,
which was No. 207. was allowed to re
main among the fortunate ones.
Several other like occurrences were
found, but upon consultation with
Wltten the names were allowed to go In
as valid.
Spokane Winners Predominate.
One of the features of the drawing Is
that Spokane people are proving largely
among the successful ones. On the other
hand, citizens from almost every state
in the Union are represented In the first
liw names. From California to Massa
chusetts, someone is a winner. Idaho is
drawing her quota, as Is also Montana.
Wyoming, Oregon and other nearby
states.
In the home of Mrs. El J. Laird. Spo
knne. two are happy, due to the kind fate
which played Into the hands of Helen
Hamilton when she picked up an envelope
on one side of the platform and then
tripped to the other side and plucked
another and took them to Judge Witten,
who opened them In order, to find that
mother and son had drawn successive
winners. It was the most dramatic in
cident in the entire first day of the land
drawing. Even to Judge Wltten. har
dened and accustomed to the unusual
events of these sorts, the fortunate play
of fate appealed. The rla.m number
drawn by Mrs. Laird Is 319. while that
drawn by her son Is 320.
Spinster's Reply Starts Laugh.
"With a dog that growls, a cat that
'ays out late at night, and a parrot that
cusses.' I guess I can run a homestead
without a husband," said pretty Grace
Croonquist, of Coeur d'Alene, who drew
number SM. when asked by Judge Wltten
what she would do with a claim without
a husband to run It for her.
"No, sir, I don't need any husband or
man to run the farm for me. They are
better for growling and staying out late
than for farming, sometimes, and with a
parrot that 'cusses' I think I have all the
necessary appendage to farm life. Let
me lay my bands on that claim and I II
how the men how to run a farm. Two
heads may be better than one. but I pad
dled my own canoe tor several years, and
I guess I ran pilot a plow over the hills
pretty successfully, unless the tight man
happen along."
Judg Wltten, grinning from ear to ear.

took a back seat and told the story as
good Joke on himself and the men.
Drawing Is Xot Lottery.
Judge Witten In his opening speach
aid:
"In the allotting of land I havs
found that In the old squatter days.
when everyone rushed to squat on a
piece of Government land, that It wa
the most honest man that recelvea tne
worst deal. 1 would have it distinctly
understood that the modern system of
giving free Government lands is not a
lottery In any sense of the word. In a
lottery you risk a certain portion of
your valuablea or wealth for a chance
at something which you think more
valuable. In the registering for the
lands on these three reservations you
risk nothing. It Is a fair and Impartial
system of giving you something for
practically nothing. Not a mark Is on
any of the envelopes to distinguish it
from another."
Past Records All Broken.
With the early morning mall which ar
rived shortly before the opening of the
drawing, the final applications for the
three reservations arrived and swelled
the total to 2&7.04S. The registration for
the three reservations is the largest In
the history of land allotments.
Old soldiers who registered through
agents are looming up among the win
ners. In several lnstancea wives of sol
diers have drawn winning numbers.
P. H. Miner, a soldier of the Union,
and member of the G. A. R.. and William
Witten, a Confederate soldier, are keep
ing guard at the door leading to the plat
form and are also guards over the en
velopes during the intervals when the
drawing lulls. Mr. Miner is a United
States Deputy Marshal, stationed at
Washington, D. C.
The whole affair is a perfect delinea
tion of the large scale on which Uncle ,
Sam conducts his official business. The
drawing for the first day closed at 4
o'clock. The mark of 1500 set by Judge
Witten as the labor for the first day, was
reached and the remaining 1500 will be
drawn tomorrow. There are but about
half that many claims to be given away,
but the extra 1500 are drawn to fill in
where winner fail to file by April L

(iorrMnis Bill at Orpheum.
One of the great hit. of the eaaon Is
Joseph Hart's "Bathing Girls" at the
Orpheum this week. It Is really a minia
ture girl review of rapid-fire, quick-changing
scenes, and is a most gorgeous production
of sir glittering, tuneful episodes with every
detail harmonized to a complete and splen
did ensemble. The beauty chorus forms a
background for two clever principals.
MaMcr Muxiolan, at Pantagns.
Read what the dally papers have to say
concerning the Four Venetian. Pantages
headllners this week. It is the finest act of
its kind In vaudeville and Is creating a tre
mendous sensation. Music critics pronounce
Frank Cortese the greatest violinist to ap
pear in a quartet, and his fellow-players are
equally good.
Krench Girls Wonderful.
There are three French girls on the new
programme at the Grand and they are
simply wonders in contortion work and
equilibristic feats. They are billed as Lea
Ploetz Iyorellas and the girl have been in
the United States scarcely a month. They
are type beauties and are expert performers
in their line.

in Directory
Harry Q. Aldrich, of 490 Burnside
street, is the lucky winner of 134th place
In the Coeur d'Alene land allotment,
choice said to be worth at least 15000.
Dispatches told last nigrht that Harry
Q. Aldrich, of Portland, had drawn No.
134. There Is no Harry G. Aldrich in the
directory, however, and as the real Harry
Q. Aldrich signs his name so that the
Q is almost identical with a G, there Is
no doubt that he is the fortunate man.
Aldrich is a member of the local lodge of
Elks. He served four and a half years
in tlia Army, one year and a half as a
member of Company G of the famous old
Second Oregon, In the Philippines, and
another three years there in the Hospital
Corps. He is at present a timekeeper lor
the Warren Construction Company.
Aldrich made his registration for the
drawing by proxy. When the first dis
patches arrived, he considered himself
out of the race altogether, for it was
Harvey G. Aldrich they named. Later
news, however, changed the Harvey to
Harry. Aldrich Is planning to quit time
keeping for farming.

S5S, is a representative of an Eastern lum
ber company, and lives at 408 Sixteenth
street. He came to Portland two years
ago from Ely. Minn. Mr. Bearinger went

and at Coeur d'Alene City. When In
formed last night that he had drawn a
number entitling him to file on a quarter
section of land on the Coeur d'Alene Res
ervation he manifested little concern. He
said he did not believe the numbers after
100 would draw lands of much value.

In yesterday's land drawing at Coeur
