INDIAN BEAUTY SHOW.
Will
CluirnxTS of Oklahoma Tribes
Show Their Charms.
Muskogee, Okla., July . 21. The
"good old summer time" Is being
Joyfully welcomed by the redskins of
the new state with the customary
dances, festivals and merry-making.
Among the novel features which will
mark the season's festivities among
the Indians Is a "beauty show," to
be held early next month at the
new town' of Bromide. Several hun
dred Indian maidens have already
entered and the show will doubtless
afford a unique opportunity to wit
ness the most beautiful charmers of
of Oklahoma tribes.
Another feature of the summer in
Oklahoma In which Poor Lo takes-
especial delight is the green corn
dance. This festival, as usual, Is
preceded by preliminary husks, at
which the Indians drink a concoction
brewed from a certain weed, the se
cret of the medicine men. This Is
supposed to cleanse the system and
keen the partakers free from dis
ease.
No good Indian will eat roastTng
ears until after the green corn dance,
a custom handed down from father
to son for many generations, and still
rigidly observed among a large num
ber of the fullbloods. For this cere
mony, hundreds of braves assemble
and the squaws cook large kettles
full of corn cut from the cob, put
ting in big pieces of beef and pork
with it. Each Indian has a bowl,
and getting his portion, sits on the
ground or anywhere else he can while
he eats. A dance will sometimes last
three days. There Is a feast each
day and a dance the night following.
At these dances the trouble occurs.
The Indians after their severe medical
probation, are in fine fettle. Then
bootleggers always manage to get In
a lot of "4 0-rod" liquor and the fight
ing begins. Deputy marshals watch
these stump dances closely, and they
usually land several boot-leggers. The
more liquor there is the more fighting.
If there are old scores In an Indian
town they are usually settled at these
places because all the Indians attend
and when they commence to get
drunk they proceed to wipe out their
differences.
DIFFERENT THEN,
it
NO ICE AND LESS
SHADE IN EARLY DAYS
Heat Not Noticed so Much Wlicn
; .Pendleton's Pioneers Had Few of
Modern Conveniences as Now
Water System Consisted of Driven
..Wells No. Fear of. Microbes, in
Those Days.
"It was not like this in tire olden
'flays," according to Lot Llvermore,
pioneer resident and former post
master of Pendleton.
"We didn't have any ice in the
early days and there wasn't as much
shade as now but 1 don't believe we
noticed the heat as much as we do at
present," said he this morning as he
wiped the perspiration from his fore
head and smiled at the recollection of
the days gone by. '
IH early days according to Mr. Llv
ermore, the residents of the city were
not dependent upon any municipal
water supply for here was a method
by which plenty of water could be
obtained. ' It consisted in driving a
pipe Into the ground 10 or 12 feet and
merely pumping the water out.
But that was before the days when
civilization- put the typhoid microbes
in well water and though it could be
used In safety then the case is dif
ferent now.
AGAINST SUNDAY BASEBALL
De-
SJil em Good Citizenship League
maiul Strict Law Enforcement.
There were no arrests for Sunday
baseball as was programmed by the
Salem Good Citizenship league. The
day was very warm, and there was a
large crowd out to the baseball park
says the Salem Journal.
The Saturday night meeting at the
opera house to discuss the liquor
question was adjourned until Friday
night of this week at the same place
The carnival was at Its height and the
drawing qower of the temperance
speakers advertised was not sufficient
to get the crowd. A number of the
invited ministers were present when
Hon. H..B. Thlelsen announced the
postponement of the meeting.
That there will be further efforts
to enforce the Sunday laws no one
can doubt. There Is a strong ele
ment among the Good Citizenship
league who favor the strict enforce
ment of the Sunday laws on the Ca
nadlan plan, which Includes excur
slons by rail or water, or any sports
whatever on Sunday.
TRACTION COMPANY RUNS

Many Tliousamls.
Cleveland, Ohio, July 22. Cleve
land has had nearly three months of
three cent fare, and two monthly re
ports have shown a deficit. A similar,
report Is predicted for July. The
operating expenses and fixed charges
have been from 140,000 to over $50,-!
000 a month In excess of the earn-1
Ings. The Municipal Traction com-!
pany, which Is operating the local'
lines under a lease also Is under a'
promise to give free transfers to July!
28. The revenue from transfers has
been about 30,000 a month, a cent
each having been charged. I
The officials of the company still j
express their belief that three cent
fares will pay in time. An Important j
meeting of the directors will be held'
next Tuesday to Consider the lnaugur-j
atlon of free transfers and other vital'
points. Transfers will be made free!
for a time as an experiment to see
if It will Increase the patronage.
"The property .will not be turned
back to the old company if, we have
to charge the highest rate of fare al
lowed by our franchise," President
Dupont has said.
The franchise permits a rate of six
cents. The operating companies fran
chise has been attacked In court and
also will be voted on under the state
initiative and referendum law.
SOLD 9,000,000 ACRES.
Majrnlflcient Domain Contained .In
Union Pacific Land Grants.
The union Pacific Railroad com
pany's land department reports that
from April 1, 1898, to May 1, 1908, ten
years and one month, the company
has sold 9,104,149.61 acres, mostly la
Wyoming, and in that time it has glv
en deeds for 3,546,09182 acres, show
ing the large amount of land taken
for actual use by settlers.
inis land is an sold on a ten-year
contract .the number of deeds Indi
cating that people have paid for their
ands In less time than the contract
caling for. In this state several
hundred thousand acres of railroad
lands have been sold to be added, to
the homestead holdings on alternate
sections, many of the tracts being con
verted into actual farming lands.
Municipal Phones for Astorta.
There Is talk of the city establish
ing a municipal telephone system, In
Astoria, as It Is authorized to do un
der amendment to the charter passed
by the people at the last election, and
at the meeting of the council tonight
Mayor Wise will recommend that the
council appoint a ommlttee to inves
tigate says an Item from that place.
It Is stated that a plant would cost
in the neighborhood of S0, 000.. Fig
uring on 1,000 subscribers at the usual
rates the gross income would be $2,000
per month, or $24,000 per year. The
operating expenses, Interest and re
pairs wouia not exceed siz.ooo per
year, and thus the net Income, It is
claimed, would be about $12,000 per
year.
Sheds Coat to Preach.
Churchmen and others in attend
ance at the First Baptist church yes
terday were surprised and somewhat
taken back when the pastor, Frank I.
Whitney, invited" all masculine mem-
tiers or me congregation to remove
their coats, says the Yakima Repub
lic. The pastor's Invitation was com
piled with only In a few cases at the
morning service, some 'few of the
small boys venturing to shed their
jackets.
But when the pastor himself ap
peared In shirt sleeves at the evening
service, the good brethren of the
church were not slow in following the
example set by the pastor.
It is likely that the custom will be
come a popular one among the
churches of the city during the hot
weather. Although the invitation to
the men to be coojer and more com
fortable caused a little stir In the
amen corner and caused the girls on
the rear seats to giggle a little, the
Rev. Mr. Whitney's Idea of comfor
table worship undoubtedly will be
popular.

HOOD RIVER TO YIELD
200 CARLOADS OF APPLES.
Famous Apple District Will Produce
Half Million Pounds.
The approach of the apple season
at Hood River Is causing growers and
shippers to put on their thinking caps
and estimates as to size of the crop are
already being made says a Hood River
item. It Is admitted by all who are
familiar with the condition of the
half grown fruit that this year's crop
Is one of the finest that ever hung on
the trees here both as to quantity and
quality.
Weather conditions in the spring
and early part of the summer were
most favorable In giving the young
fruit a good start and there is no rea
son to believe that it will not mature
into the greatest and best crop of ap
ples that were ever shipped out of the,
valley.
Estimates as to number of boxes of
apples that will be shipped from Hood
River this year run all the way from
225,000 to400.000. There figures are
the guesses of those who have made
a considerable study of the question
and while there Is a rather wide var
iation between the minimum and max
imum figures as to the production It Is
accounted for by a difference of opin
ion as to what the young orchards
which will come Into bearing this
year will produce.
A safe estimate is thought to be in
the neighborhood of 260,000 boxes
which will make a shipment of some
thing over 400 cars of almost double
the quantity of fruit ever placed on
the market by Hood River In previous
years.
