La Grande Chinamen, put on what
fng Goey of this place calls a "play."
It was a representation, by peculiari
ties of costuming or uniforming, to
gether with banners of peculiar de
sign, of Chinese conceptions of liber
ty, and also had considerable histori
cal significance. The full Import of
the performance is not easily gleaned
from any explanation which the Chi
namen will attempt. The costumes
and an enormous triangular "dragon 1
flag" were loans from certain Chinese .
societies in Portland.
Four of the nine Chinamen at La
Grande from this place belong to the
local Chinese band. They were TJng
Goey, Tom Gee, Ung Coon, and Toy ,
Shae Tuen. Through Goey the party
all express themselves as having had i
a "velly fine time at La Glande." j

Attraction at the Reservation.
The attraction at the reservation
today in the way of racing Is a 400
yard dash between two of the fleetest
horses in the Northwest. One Is
owned by William Hall and the other
by George Bed Horse. A $50 forfeit
has been placed, and the bets are long
pn both animals.
A little Inquiry and close observa
tion by anyone who understands the
Indians, reveals the fact that there
can be found In their possession
many objects of much more than
passing interest to even the most su
perficial student of ethnology nnd
history.
After the war parade on the reser
vation the Fourth a bystander accost
ed Peter Kalyton, the well-known old
Indian, and asked him the history of
the tomahawk he carried. The old
man was reticent at first, but finally
stated that he had owned the weapon
50 or more years, and that he had car
ried it In battle. Asked whether It
had ever done execution, he owned
that he had killed three men with it,
but insisted that the victims were not
white men, but that all three were
Plutes. He had used it in the war
of the Cayuse and Umatlllas to help
repel the invasion of the Plutes into
this territory from the south.
The Tomahawk will weigh, blade
and handle both, not over two pounds
possibly not thnt much. The handle
is straight, of hard wood, cut and
fashioned by Kalyton himself, and
ornamented with brass-headed tacks.
and calablistlc characters which only
an old Indian can Interpret. The
back of the blade, the hammer part
as it might be called, Is hollow, and
could have been used as a pipe in
council of war, and probably has
been, though the present handle to
the weapon is solid. The blade has
an edge about four inches long, and
is of highly tempered blue steel and
not a rough blacksmith shop blade.
Kalytun, who is over 70 years of
age. undoubtedly has a very honora
ble record as a soldier among his
people, but in the uprising of 1S7S he
was for peace from start to finish;
probably not because he did not enjoy
a scrap as well as anybody, but be
cause he realized fully the folly of
war.
dealer and sawmill man of Murdock
Spur, near Meacham, says the rain
of Sunday washed out the mountain
roads very badly, making them Im
passable In many places.
There Is a large amount of hauling ,
in the mountnln districts this season j
and good roads are badly needed, and
this rain will somewhat delay the
work in that locality. There will be
less ivood hauled than usual to Mitr
dock Spur this season, owing to the
fact that men cannot be secured to
cut it out, the timber is culled so badly.

down yesterday to sec the wreck of
Pendleton and bid her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. J. Si. Bentley good-bye.
From the Spokesman-Review write-up

thought her parents would be surely
on the point of deserting the place

years, nnd she wished to tnke ndvnn
tnge of the little time thnt might
elapse before they got away, to have
