DLETON ROLLER MILLS
W. S. Byers, Proprietor.
The only Indian on the Umatilla
reservation who docs not lmltato In
some way, tho civilized customs of
the whites, Is KI-lo, an old man, who
has been demented for years.
KI-lo may he seen In Pendleton
any Saturday, arrayed In his fcath
era, paint, buckskin legglns and
green blanket, just as ho was array
cd before the Bannock war, and be
fore the Umatlllas became civilized.
KI-lo lives on tho Upper McKay,
12 miles from Pendleton, and does
not assoclato with the other Indians.
He owns a small herd of cayuses.
which ho guards very closely and
prizes very highly. He never misses
coming to Pendleton on Saturday,
no matter what tho weather, but he
comes In alone, attends to his own
business while In the city and whllo
the other Indians are riding home
In tho evening in groups of two to
twenty, KI-lo rides apart, and does
not "heed tho merry crowds that
lino the road to tho reservation.
The old man wears no hat, but
covers his head in the ancient feath
er 'head dress of his forefathers, no
white man's shirt ornaments his
back, and no cast off pants from the
second hand store adorn his legs.
Ho wraps his blanket closely about
his shoulders, wears the legglns on
his legs, and his great mascular
arms are bare, under tho blanket.
His pecullartles are known by all
the Umatlllas, and not a word . of
comment passes among them upon
tho old man's strange actions. He
has been demented for years, and
had this not been his misfortune, he
would have been chief of tho Uma
tlllas. In youth, he was the fastest run
ner and the swiftest messenger on
the Umatilla reservation. He could
run on foot, faster and farther than
any other Indian on tho reserve,
was of 'a magnificent physique and
was In line for the chleftlancy, when
j It became known that his mind was
unsound, and ho was cast oft by the
I tribe.
KI-lo docs not know how old ho Is.
He was born on tho reservation at
the foot of the niuo mountains, but
ho don t know when. He knows no
other homo. Tho breaks of tho
Umatilla river and McKay creek
have been tho scene of all his life's
activities, excepting an occasional
visit to the Yaklmas, Columbia river
Indians or the Nez Perces.
When he goes on his visit In tho
summer months, ho .takes every
thing out of his tepee, ties up the
openings to his home, packs all his
belongings on his horses,, rounds up
his entire herd of about 20 horses
and takes all his possessions with
him. Nobody knows where or when
ho goes, until his friends miss him.
He scarcely ever speaks to any of his
nearest neighbors, and few of them
bother him by talking to him.
When nn Indian visits him at lils
tepee, it is a silent visit, not more
than a doztm words being spoken by
either, during the visit. He Is not
surly, but Is silent and abstracted
and the Indians respect his wishes
by not nnnoynlg him with conversa
tion. Ho is a remarkable spectacle on
the streets of Pendleton, In his war
paint and feather head dross, among
the gaudy calico dresses and flash
ing blankets of his tribesmen. He
is over six feet tall, straight as an
arrow, mascular and active although
he must be over sixty years of age.
He is an expert rider and prides in
an antiquated riding outfit. Instead of
sporting a fine saddle and bridle, us
other modern Indians, he clings to
the ancient Indian rig, of forty years
ago.
He is never seen loitering on tho
streets as other Indians do, but
walks briskly and has a savage look
out of his eagle eye, as ho jostles his
way through the crowds.
Nowadays there Is but little dif
ference between ball and dinner
gowns. They aro built of tho same
kinds of materials, ornamented In
tho same gorgeous style nnd ono Is
cut about as low as tho other. Tho
only difference and even that Is In
many cases not marked enough to
form a clear distinction, Is In tho
sleeves. Hall gowns aro usually
made without slcnvcs, whllo dinner
gowns ar"o usually provided with
;such or at least with some rudimen
tary attachments that may, in a
pinch, bo Interpreted as sleeves.
Velvets are shown In a greater va
riety of tcxturo, colors and shades
this season than ovor boforo and
some of the goods displayed aro of
rcinarkablo beauty. There aro
somo In various .shades of pink, from
tho palest to somo of a brighter hue,
whites, from tho pure and dazzling
white to tho most charming cream
and Ivory tints, mnuves, and differ
ent kinds of bluo nnd green. Greens,
tho light shades as well as the dark
est ones aro exceedingly handsome
and becoming to certain complex
ions. Of course, thero Is no lack of
black velvets from tho dullest to tho
most lustrous finish and nil of them
In various degrees of weight and
thickness.

WEEKLY FASHION LETTER.
New York, February 13. Just
now Is the critical turning point of
the winter season, The regime cf
tho ball gown reaches Us end next
week, on Ash Wednesday and tho
dinner gown will reign supreme dur
ing tho season of Lent, which pre
scribes dancing and other amuse
ments of a gay and frivolous nature.
The question of dinner gowns Is of
supremo Importance just at this time
and anything that has any bearing
upon that question Is of absorbing
interest to the feminine mind.
Tho makers of fashion have been
very considerate for the fair sex dur
ing the last few years, by compen
sating the followers of fashion for
the loss of opportunity to display
gorgeous creations In dresses, caus
ed by the restrictions of tho
Lenten season by a development of
dinner gown fashions upon ball
gown lines.

The Original Company
T FRAZER'S THEATRE
Tuesday, February 16, 1 904
Under the Auspices of the Men's Resort,
This is the real company of Fisk Jubilee Singers, whose melodies have been pronounced the
lest that can be produced. Their gentle music of a tender strain can be brought,' out by no
people In the world like the colored peoole.
This great organization stands at the he of tin colored vocalists of the world and to be ap-
tted must be heard. No music produced equals the hunan voices and no voices are as sweet
se of the colored people in their rich negro melodies. No citizen should miss hearing the orig-
risk Jubilee Singers.
What,
Mark Twain
Says:
m
Mar Twain, at Lucerno, Switzerland, wrote as follows to his friend Rev Joseph
Twltchell of Hartford, after hearing a concert at Vltznau by the Fisk Jublleo Singers ;n
1897: "Tho Jubilees sung a lot of pieces. Arduous and painstaking cultivation has not
dlmlnlshod or artlnclallzed their music. On the contrary, to my mind, cultivation has
mightily relnforcod its eloquence and beauty. To mo, away, back In the beginning, their
music mado all other vocal music cheap, an J that early notion Is emphasized now. It
Is utterly bouutiful, and moves mo Infinitely moro than any other music can. I think
that In tho Jub..oo Singers and their songs America has produced tho perfectest flow
ers of tho ages, and I wish it wero a foreign product, so that she would worship it, and
lavish monoy on It, and go properly crazy over It."
