The people thronged outside the pr1n-
c;pal gateway as Gilbert was carried
tenderly in the litter toward the city.
he held his rifle securely and loosened
Z his revolver in its holster, not knowing
s the outcome Of events, but resolved to
ssee the thing through in the interests Of
ethno1ogy. Every step his bearers took
revealed new wonders to him, and he
was becoming rapidly convinced of the
truth that he was in a city of the past.
Up the temples causeway they bore
him to the clean white chamber on the
top-its dazzling gold plates arousing
calculations Of their intrinsic value in
his mind at once-and they placed the
litter IN the center. Then they brought
{ him water and food-the first duties of
Atzlan hospitality being to supply the
guest with these before anything else Is
done.
Bowing low before him, the priests,
who had regained in some measure their
= composure, offered him sheets Of the
crisp, gauzy waiavi, kind of bread
made Of meal finely ground and baked
upon hot stones; thin as wafer these
sheets were rolled or folded, and they
melted in his mouth deliciously. Then
they brought him baked meats and
cakes, with 8 sweet drink made. from
the sprouting wheat, called kali. After
he had eaten his fill, which he did in a
slow and careful manner, avoiding the
betrayal of the fact that he was nearly
starved, for god should not, he felt,
show vulgar hunger and thirst, they
brought him small carafe of the sacred
aitsi, which he found to be very ordi-
nary brand of corn whisky, but exceed
ingly strong.
When be had finished he drew ont his
meerschaum, filed and lighted it. This
proceeding was watched by the priests
and as many Of the chiefs as could see

and trembling. The striking Of. the.
match upon the stones and the bursting
of the little fame into life was a signal
for startling outcry. When the CRATE

father of the bride gave her away. No
attendants. The ceremony was followed
by wedding breakfast at Mrs. Blaine's
apartments. Only intimate friends and
relatives were asked to the ceremony.
Not More than so people were present.
The wedding is the happy consumma-
tion of romance begun when Mrs.
Blaine was snriously i'll three years ago.
That she would be q cripple for life was
the verdict of the physicians who at

CHICAGO, May 3O.-Montana's famous
solid silver statue of "Justice" was un-
yelled in the mines and mining building
today. 1t is the statue for which the ac-
tress, Ada Rehan, stood as model, and
by SO doing created great contention
among her sisters of the profession.
The unveiling of the statue was the event
of the day at the White City, and the
great building in which the statue stands
was thronged with people eager to see
the magnificent work of art. While
the crowd was bling, the Cincin-
natl band played national airs. The
opening address was by Major Martin
McGinnis.
When he finished. Mrs. Richards, of
Montana, stepped forward, and, taking
up small silken cord, gave it a gentle
pull, and the stars and stripes which
embodied the silver image of Justice
fell away and exposed the statue for the
first time to public gaze. The crowd
gave vent to wild cheers, while the band
played "America.'

day have passed off very satisfactorily to
all. The services were very imposing.
The G. A. R. and Sons of Veterans
marched in line, together with many
prominent citizens, and other orders
and officers. The only disagreeable fea-
ture was a slight shower of rain which
dampened the plumes of the state

Republic is beautiful ocean steamer,
and is decoration to the Sound trade.
On Saturday evening when she hauled
in at ocean dock, the U. S. officers were
then ready to seize her, and since that
time the officers have been at work on
board, both day and night. So far but

found in the Office of the steamer made
it appear for while that she had on
board opium, but further search re-
vealed that the communications,
in cypher, referred to coal and not to
opium. just what will be done on ac-
count of this wrongful seizure, is not

FouND DROWNED.
An Unknown Man Drifting Down the
Columbia.

Saturday evening as Turner Leavens
was standing on his fish-wheel above
the upper Cascades he saw the body of
a man drifting past. At this juncture
Louis Imam and James Shepherd, who
were in a boat going to Geo. II. Steven
son 8, were hailed and Immediately went
and secured the body, towing it to Pow
der island where it was made fast. Sun
day morning Mr.. Stevenson came down
to Cascades on hand car after County
Clerk Carr to hold an inquest. Mr..
Carr being the only officer at home, he
accompanied Mr.. Stevenson to where
the remains were and an inquest
held. The witnesses were Louis Imam,
James Shepherd and Turner Leavens.
There is no clue whatever to his identity
but the body is supposed to be that of a
man who fell in the river at the rapids
of Cello. As there was nothing on his
person whatever to identify him, his
name will undoubtedly never be known.
There was no evidence whatever of foul
play and his drowning was undoubtedly
an accident. He was buried on Powder
misunderstanding County Pioneer.

CAPT. MAcKAY's COURT MARTIAL.


The war department has received from
Gen. Miles the report in the case of Capt
James o. Mackay, tried by court martial
at Fort Reno, Okla, on charges of cruelty
to his men. 1t was charged that Capt
Mackay, while commanding troop A OF
tho Sd cavalry, caused Nicholas Cannon
to be tied up by his wrists, with his feet
partly raised from the ground, for pc
riod Of about six hours, and w. G. Rich
ards to be tied up by the wrists, with
his feet barely touching the ground, for a
period of about one hour, and thrown
into water hole several times.
Both cases occurred near Fort Nc
Intosh, Texas, at different times in
March last, and attracted considerable
attention.
In the light of the evidence it appeared
that Capt. Mackay was not influenced by
malice, corruption, or cruelty, and that
no more punishment was inflicted than
was necessary to compel obedience. The
punishment of the men also ended imme-
diately upon their expressed willingness
to obey the orders of their commanding
officer. Therefore Capt. Mackay was ac-
quilted.
Capt. Henry Wygant, Gath infantry, is

ARKANSAS CITY, Sept. 18.-The excite

Cherokee strip hns about subsidized and
everybody is at work building homes.
Enough people made the run to furnish
each one OF the $1,000 homesteads with
an occupant and give every county seat
and townsite at least 1900 inhabitants.
It is estimated that $4,000 people made
the race. 1t is known that over 125,OO0
certificates we're issued from the various
registration booths, but the majority of
the prospective settlers took out both
homestead and townsite certificates, 80
that the number of certificates do not
represent the number of settlers.
1t is estimated that $4,000 people made
the race from Arkansas City, $4,000 from
Caldwell, 1000 from Orlando, 5000 from
Hennassy, 1000 from Saltwater, 5000
from Kiowa, 5000 from Hunnewell, 5000
from Anthony and 5000 from other
points. The total number nearly doubles
the crowd which reached ints Oklahoma
when that territory was opened.
