FIRST THANKSGIVING DINNER.
Indian Chiefs Were Hospitality
Entertained by the Pilgrims,

The first Thanksgiving was appointed
by Governor Bradford, at Plymouth,
Mass, in 1921, the year following the
landing OF the Pilgrims, in order that
the Colonists in a more special way
could rejoice together at having all
things in good and plenty, writes Cliff
ford Howard in the November Ladies
Home Journal" In preparation for the
feast "gunners were sent into the woods
for wild turkeys, which abounded there
in great numbers; kitchens were made
ready for preparing the feast-especially
the large one in Dame Brewster's house,
which was under the immediate direc
ton and charge Of Priscilla Molines, she
who afterward became the wife of John
Alden-while a messenger was dis
patched to invite Massasoit, the chief
Of the friendly tribe, to attend the cele-
bration.
Early on the morning of the appoint
ed Thursday-about the first of Novem-
ber-Massasoit and ninety of his war
riors arrived on the outskirts of the vii
lage, and with wild yells announced
their readiness to enjoy the hospitality
of their white brethren. The little set
tlement. which now consisted of seven
dwellings and four public buildings,
was soon astir with men, women and
children, who gave the Indians hearty
welcome as they filed into the large
square in front of the Governors house.
Soon the roll Of a drum announced the
hour of prayer, for no day was begun
without this religious service. Then fol-
lowed a holiday of feasting and recrea-
tion. which continued not only that day
but during two succeeding days. The
usual routine Of duties was suspended;
the children romped about in merry
play; the young men INDUCED In ath-
letic sports and games in friendly riv-
airy with the Indians; the little Amerl-
can army of twenty men, under the lea
dership of Miles Standish, went through
it's drill and manual of arms, to the
great delight and astonisnment Oh the
natives. while the women busted tnem-
selves in the careful preparation OF the
excellent meals, which were eaten IN the
open air."

THE BOND ELECTION.
Orangeva1e Adds Twenty-Eight
Solid Votes to the Long End.

The returns published in the Rec
ord -Unlon' yesterday morning, show
ing that the people had by an over
wheiming vote declared in favor OF
the county aiding in the construction
of a macadam road from this city TO
Folsom, covered nearly every precinct
in the county that could be reached by
telephone. Those not in the list are
precincts that poll but few votes, so
the full returns will make but little
difference in the result.
Orangevale was heard from yester-
day. That place gave % votes solid
for the bonds-not / against the prop
osition.
President Luhrs Of the Folsom Road
Commission said yesterday that there
would be no unnecessary delay in get
ting the work started. Some time Will
be required to effect the printing of the
bonds, but by that time all the other
preliminaries will be ready, and it will
be but a short time before there are
hundreds of men and teams at work on
the road.
1t has been the intention of the Com
| missioners not to let the work out to
contractors, but to have it done entire
| ly under their supervision.
The State Highway Commissioners,
who are all experienced engineers, will
give all possible aid in the matter, and
the expense will be kept at the mini
mum. Every dollar will be made to go
as far as possible and there will be a
thorough accounting made, even to the
| smallest expenditures. The work will
furnish employment for large num-
ber OF men and teams throughout the
coming spring and summer.
Warden Aull of the State pris-
on estimates that it will take about
nine months to provide all the crushed
| rock required, but the work can be
kept going right along up to the capac-
ity Of the rock-crusher, and by next
fall the entire road will be completed.

SNAKES BY THE BUsHEL.
More Than Two Hundred Rattlers
Killed by q Mowinp Machine.

1t Is not necessary to GO to the far
West or South for up-to-date snake
stories. One which is vouched for by

Hancock, Delaware County. and is

Alter eating his dinner Friday he
hltched up the team and started moving
around meadow about sixty rods from
the barn. The thermometer stood 80
degrees in the shade and about 200 in
the sun. Henry had moved about half
dozen times around the place. when all

same instant the knives struck into
a squirming, writhing ball of rattle
snakes, rolled tightly together and as
large as a bushel basket.
The horses started full speed for the
barn, and the heads and rattles flew in
all directions. The horses, the moving
machine and the ground behind it were
covered With snakes. Henry leaped to
his feet as he struck the ground, and,
seizing stick, whacked right and left
for his life. Wherever he struck he
could not fail to hit snake. He waded
through the myriad of squirming SER
pents, working his stick like fail on
a thrashing floor until he cleared the
Kissing mass, and then he ran with all
the speed he could muster for the barn
which the horses had already reached
The team were none the worse for the
run, though it took some time to get
the machine righted. 1t was literally
covered with ground rattlesnakes. The
heads and bodies of twenty-six rattle
snakes were counted, and Henry esti-
mates that there must have been two
hundred in the nest
The next day thirty rattlers were
killed UP Gee Brook about four miles
from the village, and a big one on
