The wan from abroad i quickly disgusted with the man and the town that is disparaged on the veiy ground where he it seeking something better than he left, and it, is the bounden duty of the towns man to pas the cheer and encourage ment the seeker ia after.

The many local societies and women' club all over the United States that have given readings from Longfellow' Hiawatha, in costume-, or for the mere beauty of the reading of the quaint poem' rythmic metre will find inter esting the following account of i't first presentation by Indian which occurred l Chiloceo, Oklahoma, last month from text adapted from the poem by instruc tors at th Indian school there. About forty young Indiau men and women were in tha cast. Their cos tume were, historically correct, Hiawa tha wore potion of the historic and sa cred wampum belts of the Wyandotte, tribe, which descended to him a heir looms. It is asserted that these shell Wa.fs were made a early a the four teenth century. The performance was givea out of doors. In little valley near the school buildings is a lagoon about three hundred vards in width and a quarter of a mile in length. Here a large platform or staj.-e proiiably eighty feet wide and forty feet deep was built on piling about one hundred and fiftv feet t'lxim the et shore on which tier of seat were erected for the peclatot 1 With much labor the Indian students transformed thi platform into a forest. At csch side of the edge of the forest stood a white tepee, and at the door of one blared a fire. From the shore to each enl of the sUg wvre strung cables of incandescent lights, while electric reflec tors floored the stae with light hcn the incandescent were darkened. Long he-ore twilight visitors began arriving from the country and nearby town in carriage-, wagons and on hflrse 3c. , The ?fU acre all filled nhen the perfivfttianc) began at eight o'clock.

They sat en tranced with the beaaly of the scene, and talked in whisper of what they saw. Rippling in the night wind the intern of the lagoon seemed to go rush ing paat the magic island like a sw'rt river, the w a ve sparkhng and shimmer ing in the electric gVow.

URGESHIPMENTSOFCOAL NOW To Avoid Repetition of La it Winter' Coal Famina Union Pacific and Oregon Short Lino Permitted to Reduce Rtte on Coal During Summer. NEW YORK, July SO.-To" tlmutate the purchase of coal during th summer months when the greatest number of ear foe this purpose are available, the (ntersUtt Com mere Commission, at the request of the Union Pacific lbiil road and the Oregon Short Line, have especially authorised a reduction of 25 cent a ton on coal shipped to Washing ton, Idaho and Nevada between July lt and September I. For the hX two month official of the llitrriman lines have been endeavoring to indxioe western coal dealer to make their shipments thi summer in order to avoid a recurrence of last winter' fuel scarcity. The difficulty then in supply ing coal to th western state grew paitbj. out of shortage of equipment and partly from the fact that order were delayed until weather conditions made freight movement slow and difficult. The Union Pacific, therefore look the unusual step of applying to the Inter state Commerce" Cummission to be al lowed to make a reduction in it rate in order to get the co-operation of dealers in shipping the fuel now, when the railroads are in good shape to handle it promptly.
