The curtain rose last night on four
women, three of them very young,
and two men alfred in the fantastic
garb affected by the islanders in ages
long since past They all wore yellow
wresths AID short skirts, with a sort Of
kilt made of weeds. They do not
dress that way now, but that is how
they used to dress.
As to the dance it is commonly de
sCrlbed as an undulating movement OF
the whole body to which the feet only
serve to beat time. And the music is
quaint chant in their native tongue
to the accompaniment of guitar This
was received with uproariouS applause
in fact, 50 uproari0us was 1t that the
performers did not appear to know
whether they were being cheered OF

The dance over, all six performers
squatted on the ground and emitted
most unearthly noises, beating tam
bourines at intervals and swayng to
and fro. Then after a short interval
the hula hula was repeated and pan
demOnium once more reigned.
On the whole it was a performance
of a most novel as well as realistic
character and found much favor with
the spectators The house was packed
to the ceiling, and the engagement
promises to be great success.

FARMING AS A BUSINESS.

Every industry is conducted
on certain business principles,
says an exchange. Superin-
tendants must know the cost of
work in every detail from the
crude, raw material to the finish
ed product, and can then tell
from what source the profit or
loss comes. The farmer should
know as much about his busi-
ness, but he does not know
whether he is losing or making
money till the year ends. He
applies no business principles to
his work, but simply goes at it
blindly. Cows that are running
him in debt without his knowl-
edge or through his shiftlessness,
are kept, led unbalanced and
improperly constructed ratfons,
or starved and given i'll water to
drink. Manures are wasted,
buildings allowed to run down,
animals kept in cold stables,
farm tools left out to rust and
become worthless, and a hun
dred other leakages left that
should be stopped. Look after
the items. They form the great
whole. In very many of our
larger manufacturing establish
nents the profit obtained comes
from the small things, Compe-
tition has compelled the saving

EYES TOMB.

The Arabs claim that Ewes
tomb is at Jiddah, the seaport Of
Mecca. The temple, with a palm
tree growing out of a crack in
the roof, which is of itself one of
the wonders of the Orient, is
supposed to be built directly ov-
er the last resting place of the
first woman. According to Arab
tradition Eve measured over 200
feet in height, which, unlikely
as 1t may seem, strangely coin
cides with an account of our
first parents written by mem
Der of the French academy, who
also claimed a height of over 200
feet for both Of the tenants of
the Garden of Eden. Ewes
tomb, which is in q burying
ground that is surrounded by a
high wall, the gate to which has
not been opehed for single in
terment for over 1000 years,
is the shrine of thousands of de-
voted Ishmaelites, who make a
pilgrimage to the spot once ev-
cry seven years. Once each
year, on June B, which is, ac-
cording to Arabian legends, the
anniversary of the death of
Abel, the doors to the tomb of
our first mother remain open all
night, no odds what precautions
ase taken to keep them closed.
Terrible cries of anguish are
said to emit from the tomb, as
though the memery of the first
known tragedy still haunted the
remains which blind supersti-
ton believe to be deposited
there.-BSltimore News.

The recent action Of New
Zealand in comforting full suf-
frage upon women is the most
radical step that has yet been
made in this direction. The
women Of Wyoming enjoy full
suffrage, but the State exerts but
little influence in national at
fairs. New Zealand is virtually
an independent government,
destined in time probably to be
distinct nation. 1t is to be
noted, however, that New Zea-
land as it is today is practically
a new country. Its population
is made up largely of self-reliant
and enterprising pioneers, placed
amid new conditions. Preiu-
dices have had little chance to
become fixed.

miles, an ascent OF 5000 feet for
nine miles to the head of Amer
lean River, and a descent Of 600
feet along the same for ten miles
more, to Elk City. 1t would
mean a road that could be trav-
eled nine months of the year.
1t would mean that on the sum
NIT between the Clearwater and
Elk City last March, four feet of
snow, only, was found whilst
Badly was covered with nearly
twenty. 1t would still further
mean a road with only twelve or
thirteen miles of distance that
lies deeper under snow during
the Winter than does Camas
Prairie, and therefore might be
easily kept open for travel dur
ing any Winter. Furthermore
it would give access to as large an
agricultural area, now unsettled

STATE WAGON ROAD.

Oyerhauled.
THE PRACTICAL ROUTE
Is Suggested BY One Who
Is Interested.
DENVER, Oct. 20, 1893.

DENVER, Oct. 20, 1893.
EDITOR REPORT. the neo-
pie of Camas Prairie or more
truthfully speaking the people
OF Grangeville,-who, of course,
ever consider themselves the ar
bitors of Idaho Co., through A.
F. Parker's Sunday School Or
gan" the Free Press, have formu-
lated various propositions to
stimulate the building of the
State Wagon Road to Elk CITY.
And they are most urgently de-
manding of the County Com
mlssioners, the exercise of the
functions of their official capaci
ty, to obligate the perple of Idaho
County to carry into effect that
portion of the Wagon Bill known
as the Elk City branch; per-
chance, it will pour oil upon the
troubled waters of their postu-
lent logic to air the matter a
little from the common sense
side of the question.
The Wagon Bill as passed by
our legislature last Winter pro-
vides for branch road from
the Clearwater to Elk City, and
appropriated $4,000 for the con
struction of the same; but, Of
course seen through the eyes of
the Metropolis of Cam as Prai-
rie cKeep your eye on Grange
yille") could have meant moth
ing else than that the proposed
road should follow the pack
trail from Grangeville to Elk
City, and consequently the sur
vey OF the roa was made to con-
form to the meanderings of the
mule, who, for thirty years has
.flouhdered between Camas Prai-
rie and Elk City.
Now to come down to facts and
figures, what is the contour of
the pending road?
An analysis of the. problem
simply illustrates this, and
doubtless more:-that the road,
if ever built, will from the
average level of the Prairie de-
scend 1000 feet to the South
Fork OF Clearwater, and from
there ascend 5000 feet to the
summit of Badly, thence descend
ing 5000 feet to Newsome Greek,
thence, once more, ascending
2200 feet to the divide of the
Elk Range, and thence again
deecending 2200 feet to the Elk
Basin. This means that every
load of freight bound to Elk City
must climb, perpendicularly
measured, the distance OF one
and three-ffth miles, besides a
down hill brake of one and two
fifth miles for these privileges.
The very nature of the profile
line precludes the possible use Of
the same for more than four
months during the year and
more often but three.
If the man OF COMPTON horse
sense, who is supposed to keep
an "Eye on Grangeville," will
but ascend to the top of Cotton
wood Butte and use but half an
eye to scan the geographical and
Typographical features of the
Clearwater Country and the
position of the Elk Basin therein
can plainly demonstrate that a
thoroughfare between the center
of Camas Prairie and Elk City
can be had with the same dis
tance by way of the mouth of the
South Fork of Clearwater and
up the main Clearwater to O'Ha-
ra Greek and thence by easy
grade to the head of American
River which may be followed to
Elk City
This would mean a road for
the same if not less money. It
would mean a road with the
same descent to the Clearwater,

HAY MARKET AGAIN.
The City Trustees Disposed to Have 1t
Removed.

The City Trustees Disposed to Have 1t
Removed.
Street Commissioner Green reported at
yesterdays session of the City Trustees
that T. ]. Clunie offered the use of the
block between p and Q. Twenty-first and
Twenty streets, to the city for
three years free of charge if they would
remit his taxes on it during that time
The Mayor said a sidewalk had been
ordered laid around the block, and if il
were used for market it would not be
laid during the three years. He thought
that Mr.. Scheld would be willing to give
them the use of his block at Twenty
eighth and NJ streets.
John A. Simons Of Florin appeared in
behalf of the farmers. He had appeared
before the former board in their behalf,
having hauled hay to the Plaza and then
to Fifteenth street when the hay mark ct
was removed there. The farmers did
not demand any rights in the matter. as
they were conscious they had none The
city has control OF its own property
and right to say what should be done
with it. The farmers, therefore, appeared
as suppGants for the extension Of the
taVors heretofore extended TO them, The
matter is one in which the producer and
consumer are concerned, and hay-rals-
ing is not SO remunerative to the pro-
Queer that he can continue to bring his
hay here if further handicapped by hav-
ing the market pushed farther away
from the consumer.
The Mayor said he appreciated the posi-
ton in which the farmers were placed,
but the taxpayers were also TO be con-
sdered. They had protested against the
occupation of the park by the market as
they wished to improve their own prop
erty and had asked the city to do certain
things toward the improvement of the
park and had promised in that case to go
on themselves and make other improv We
ments. Those who had hay stores also
complain that they pay rent, license and
taxes 10 carry on their business and
should be protected against peddlers.
The first duty of the board is to the tax
payers OF the city.
ON motion OF Street Commissioner
Green the matter was laid over one
month.

HELP, CASSIUS! OR We SINK"
The Baseball Magnates Again Turn
Toward Sacramento.
AS stockton Still Fails to Support Its
Team, They Would Send 1t
to This City.

The eyes of the baseball magnates still
turn toward Sacramento whenever they
find themselves Sin a hole" A few
weeks ago, when the Stockton team in
the State League was doing nothing, and
the games in that city were being played
at loss, there was talk of transferring
the franchise and team to Sacramento.
which city the managers all said they
knew to be one of the best baseball towns
in the State.
They did not talk that way, however.
when they robbed Sacramento of her
franchise some months ago, causing
dead loss OF $500 to lady here who
had in good faith invested that sum in
what she had been led to believe was
permanent thing.
When the Stockton franchise changed
hands few weeks since, and it looked as
if the new management were going to
make success of baseball in that CITY.
all talk OF a transfer to Sacramento was
dropped. Now, however, that the ex-
pected success has not come, the managers
OF the league are again turning toward
Sacramento-"the best baseball CITY in
the State"-to help them out of their
difficulty.
The talk now is that if the people of
this city will do the right thing'' the
stockton team will be transferred here at
the close of the present season, which
ends with this month.
All right, gentlemen, bring along your
ball-players. There is nothing mean
about Sacramento, and she can be relied
upon to do the proper thing by YOU.
There are great many persons here
who would patronize the game if they
had the opportunity, and there are a
great many more, who are not "cranks,"
but stand ready to take hold and lift the
league up out OF the mud. San Jose and
Stockton have both failed to bold up
their end of the State League schedule.
while Sacramento always did.
There has been baseball famine here
for year and a half, and if league games
were played here they would be well
patronized this summer. Nobody sup
poses, however, that the baseball mag
mates are moved at this time by any par
ticular desire to favor Sacramento-Ihat
is understood-but our people do not like
TO see the sport 60 to the wall from lack
of support.
