The citizens of Dufur never do any

a decision from the interior depart

came insane, and was confined in the
asylum. w. T. Weeks then appeared
and fled a contest for the land in con-

Feminine beauties.

A Pen Picture Of One Of Their Decorated
Feminine Desutics.
It will be noted that a Bill beauty
wears as many as half dozen heavy metal
bracelets upon either wrist, and the COL
lection Of trinkets that hang over her ears
10 extremely curious Her rather light at
tire permits US to form some opinion as to
the physique of this woman, and 1t is not
difficult to see that in such particulars she
is remarkably well proportioned She is
evidently broad and deep chested, has fine
ly developed limbs and well balanced
head upon rather square shoulders. The
form of her face is nearly circular, with
large mouth and nose, and the eyes are set
far apart Her complexion Is dark, and
she Is somewhat small In stature.
Bills have the reputation of being very
active and capable Of enduring much IA
tigue with impunity Twenty years ago, or
less perhaps this tribe occupied British
political agency-the Bill agency, In CEN
trail Asia-which covered an area of 8, 100
square miles and had population of near
ly 100000 people, This agency was estab-
lished In 1926, at which time Bhil corps
was organized with view to utilizing
the warlike instincts Of the Bill tribes
This brave body of men have done good
service and gradually put down the preda-
tory habits Of their countrymen.
The Bhil tribes chiefly inhabit the rocky
ranges of the Vindhya and Satpura noun
tains and the banks of the Narbada and the
Tapti. In common with other hill tribes,
the Bills are supposed to have been alb
origines of India and to have been driven
TO their present Businesses at the time of the
Hindoo invasion. DR.. r. w. Shufeldt In

Colonel Mcclure followed in a brief
speech, In the course Of which he said:
1.-The duties and responsibilities Of
journalism are largely defined by their
environment, and there may be fitness on
this occasion to refer to the political, bust.
ness, social and moral conditions under
which The Juniata Sentinel was founded
fifty years ago, in contrast with the greatly
changed conditions which confront the
journals of today. The people Of Juniata
county were of a well to do class, adapted
to the primitive condition in which they
lived. The enervating blight Of luxury
and the despair Of pinching want were
strangers in their midst They believed
in the church, in the school, in the sanctiuy
of home, in integrity between man and
man. Christianity was accepted by them
as the common law, sincerely by many, and
with II respect akin to reverence by all.
"The most satisfactory newspaper work
have ever done, mean the most salts
factory to myself, was during the first few
months after l founded The Sentinel.
