Ways.

the coast from Ukiah to the gulf. /
speak the language of these tribes, and
can make myself understood in seven.
1t makes me indignant to see the ac-
counts of these Indians, their habits
and their life from people who see them
only through spyglasses and while in
the company of soldier guards. The
Indians are treated worse than any
coolie slaves.
j. w. Pangborn (well-borer)-I've
just came from up-country, where I've
been putting down some oil wells.
Folks talk about there not being any
natural gas in this country; why there
are three wells up near Summerland, in
Santa Barbara county, discharging so
much gas that 1T gets mixed up with air
in the loose earth near the surface, and
causes slight explosion every day or
two. The folks there are after oil,
though, and are putting the wells down
further.
Judge Eaton, of Pasadena This wealth
er might be cooler, but then, as once
told a friend from Dakota who was kick
ing about the heat here one summer, we
don't ever freeze anybody to death.
Fred Tullis (schoolboy)-Am glad
there is no school now?l Well you can
just bet your life. What ami going to
do today? Well, I've got two bits and a
lunch in my pocket, and I'm going round
to the natatorium and stay until Mr..
McCaldin fires me out. That's the cool
est place know anything about, and
it's fun too, you bet.
..:sa Lo.1.io Dc We're Ia Twelve Temp
tation girl)-Thanks, awfully, I'll take
small beer. What do think? Well
first think if had my costume on I'd
be great deal cooler. Interview me,
why bless your blooming soul can't
tell you anything new. You've got
lot of soft chappies in this town and my
husband smashed one of them last
night who followed me up to the Hoff-
man house. Well, don't care if do,
its the best thing to drink this wea ther.
1.-The same thing over again waiter.''
Lieutenant Collins-My Office is about
as cool as any place in town, but am
thanking my lucky stars every warm
day that am not one of our blue coats
out at an Arizona station keeping an eye
on the Indians. If 1 were convicted OF
crime and had my choice Of going to
jail or enlisting in the army in Arizona
as private for the same length of time
/ think l should choose the Jail.
Judge Forester supervisors
don't get any vacation to speak of, but
l am rather sorry there is not time and
opportunity to 60 over some other
mountain trail and stop at some breezy
summit during this heated term as we
did at Wilson's peak. What a good
time we had then, to be sure.
Martin Lehman (manager opera house)
The great mistake made by spectacu-
lar company managers is not engaging
pretty girls for their ballet. Whenever
Dizzy comes along, the pretty faces he is
known to always have in his company
will draw enough men about town to
make good-sized audience.
j. @. Tufts-Great Scott; you don't
expect man to have ideas and opinions
this kind of weather, do you? All
want to do these days is to keep cool and
think of nothing. l don't care whether
the school teachers get ten cents or ten
dollars, and as for retrenchment, am
decidedly in favor of retrenchment as
regards the amount of caloric dispensed
in California.
P. S. Hensen. D. d. am very much
pleased with all of your wonderful coun-
try which l have seen. l have been
AFRAID In some places OF giving my Iec-
ture on Fools for fear of being considered
too personal, but anyone who has come
to this country to live, displays evil
dences of good sense that takes him en-
tirely out of the category OF fools.
d. F. Baxter, of Santa Barbara was
surprised when l entered the exhibit
room of the chamber of commerce this
morning. Among the exhibits l found
a number of things had been in search
of, and the superintendent put me in the
way OF obtaining just the information 1
wanted. feel under obligations to
your enterprising citizens who have
gotten it up and supported it.
A sailor from the Charleston-Say,
your city is mighty nice place, but it's
as hot as hell. 1t makes me warmer
than ever to think of a place as hot as
that. Is it always as hot as this here
/ asked bartender just now how hot it
was, and he said he didn't know, as his
thermometer was a valuable one and he
had put it on the ice for safe-keeping
early in the morning.
DR.. H. A. Mott, United States gov
ernment chemist, says: Royal Bak-
ing Powder is undoubtedly the. purest
and most reliable baking powder offered
