maiden recovered her sense than she lost

The Story of the Lam-me-i and
* The SkOOkum.

Sapotwil was the name of the Indian,
who during the Indian war warned the
settlers at White Salmon of an intended
assault, thus saving the lives of many
whites at that place. After this event
Sapotwil lost prestige among his own
people, and took the name of Johnson.
He often visited us, and upon such oc-
casions was given seat at the table
with the family, to show the great es-
TEEN he had won by his heroic action.
Johnson was heartily welcomed by the
children, for he made the most beauti-
fully polished bows and arrows, and it
seemed as if he knew just the right time
TO come in with haunch of venison or
a string of trout, for which he was al
ways literally paid. He had a fund of
knowledge and anecdote that made him
an ideal guide in the mountains
Upon one occasion he had gone with a
party of four to Mt. Adams. While on
the way they learned that some gentle
men had preceded them to measure the
height of the mountain and take some
photographs. AT night while seated
around generous camp fire; Johnson
seemed very delighted and as the wind
rose and thunder reverberated through
the mountains, he exclaimed: 1.-The
sacred eagles which guard the noun
tains are angry they do not want the
silence of the hills broken. Perhaps
those men will be killed for their intru-
sion.'' Dr. E, of Portland said to
Mr.. A. who could converse fuently
with Johnson, task him where he thinks
we 90 after death" Mr.. A. put the
question, and instantly flashed back the
reply .sChee memaloose chez cumtux''

johnson thoroughly believed in spooks,
and after little urging told the story of
the Lam-me-i(ol woman) and Skookum,
The Skookums were black giantesses,
who went through the forests in quest
of Indian children, which they would
oft times snatch from a mothers arms
and devour. I will give you the story

prospects of a tramp through the woesas.
when he spied a squirrel in the top of =
pine tree, swaying to and fro IN a merry
frolic: The boy thought, i, too, Win

tall pine and rocked back and fortn
singing merrily. But suddenly he saw
Skookum approaching the foot Of the
tree he had climbed and he trembiea
with fear. The black woman called out
to the boy, Come down; there are no
Skookums here" but the boy replied.
Il believe you are Skookum yourself" !"
The lad broke branches from the tree
and threw them as far as he could whiis
the Skookum viciously rushed aftea
t lem. At last his descent was alnma
accomplished, and the boy had thrown
his last branch in the opposite direction
from where he wished to land Then
quickly jumping down he made his way
to the cave, pursued by the black fury,
who would tear pieces of flesh from his
shoulders and eagerly eat them, saying,
''Oh, how sweet! Soon / will eat lin
up'' But the boy dropped through the
entrance to the cave, and the Skooku1s
could only give vent to her anger iK
piercing screams.
After a time, the black cannibal see
ing the white hands of the Lam-me-i,
who was busily weaving baskets, cried
to her, '.What makes your hands 50
white?" The Lam-me-i replied, 81 made
stones hot, then put pitch on my hands,
and rapidly rolled them over the stones"

the Skookum said "Oh, no, the Lam

work quickly and gfaciously proffered
her help.
Together they heated stones, gathered
the pitch, and when all was ready the
Skookum stopped over the stones. The
boy gave her push, the pitch blazed
up and the Lammier with forked stici
held her in the fire until she was CON
sumed by it. And Johnson conluded
by saying, "To this day the Indian
mothers, when they pass this cave,
whisper, Hasten, my children. There
is where the Lammier killed the Skoo-

OF time and money, which many could
i'll afford
In order to overcome this difficulty
and interchange OF ideas, the plan of
state federationS was conceived and
carried into effect. Nearly five years
ago the first one was formed, and today
there are over twenty state federations.
1t is to be hoped that Oregon will
soon be added to the list, and active
steps taken to bring in closer association
the various clubs throughout the state.
There can be no question as to the
practical advantages which result to
individual clubs, by the formation of
state declarations, in the enlarging of
social ties and the feeling of solidarity
which grows Oh women who are brought
intimately in contact with the citizens
Of their own state once year.
The spirit of association and the
ability to work in organization is the
lesson taught by the federation. 1t is
the composite whole to which each
woman contributes little.
The influence can be none other than
to broaden and liberaize the lives of
mothers, wives and sisters to bring in
touch ed, cat:on and life, the church
and the orld tie club and the home:

make y w"marly woman-an honor to

CANADIAN ROADS.
Interstate Commission Considers 0ues-
tion of Rates.

Washington, January S.-The Inter
State Commerce Commission now has
under consideration the question of en-
forcement of section 1906 of the Revised
Statutes, with special reference of section
of the Interstate Commerce act, sec
tion 3oO6 provides that goods may be
transferred between ports of the United
States through Canada or Mexico by such
routes ana under such rules regulations
and conditions as the Secretary Of the
Treasury may prescribe.
Section of the Interstate Commerce
act provides that on carriers receiving
freight in the United States to be carried
through a foreign country to another
noint in the United States shall publicly
publish schedules showing the through
rates charged. This provision is said to be
ignored by Canadian railroads except as
10 the rate between the initial point and
She Canadian frontier. Under the present
system it is said large shippers are some-
times given very material advantage
oyer smaller ones. This practice, 1t is
said, not only works great harm to
small shippers over Canadian roads but
also to sall connecting American roads.
The penalty provided for neglect to pub
lish the through schedule equired Is
that the goods so transported shall be sub
iected to customs duties.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.
Saturdays Chapter of the Debate in the
House.

Washington, January S.-The civil SER
vice debate was continued in the House
today until O'Clock. The remainder of
the session under a special order was de-
voted to eulogizing the memory of the
late Representative Wright of Massachu-
setts.
Before the debate began, on motion of
MIR Burleigh, Republican of Maine, Sat
urday, January 10, was set aside for pay
ing tribute to the memory OF the late
Representative MiIliken of Maine.
Mr. Corliss, Republican of Michigan,
the first speaker today, favored radical
notifications of the law. He Thought
that constitutionally the heads of depart
ments were clothed with the power OF ap-
pointing their subordinates. 10 that ex-
tent he thought if tested the law would
be unconstitutional. He believed the
right of removal should be restored and
the tenure of office limited.
Mr.. Hepburn, Republican of Iowa.
spoke for an hour against what he termed
the popular impression of the so-called
merit system. The House, he argued,
had been utterly misled by the high sound
Iing phrases Of the "reformers In
some things the old system at it's worst
was superior to the new. My colleagues

result in the old system, than in this dark
ened, subterranean, irresponsible method
we have fallen into in this later time"
He believed the appointive power and
the power of removal should be lodged IN
the same hands and should be unlimited.
Amid a burst of applause from the gal
leries and floor he insisted that the polit-
cal workers were entitled to and should
be accorded recognition. If the present
system continued the influence OF rich
men in politics would grow steadily.

MUST HAVE SURPRISED HoBoEs.
Unruiy Anbnrn Prisoners Treated to Cold
Bath.

Auburn, January 8.-The jail in this
city has recently had good deal OF
prominence on account of breaks OF
prisoners, which followed each other in
rapid succession. Most of the escaped
prisoners were captured, and the ring
leaders organized a plan to create night
ly disturbances.
The men were handcuffed and placed
in solitary confinement, but this made
no difference. At certain time each
night they commenced series of terrific
cries and noises, and disturbed people
who live in the vicinity of the jail.
Thursday night the unruly prisoners
had an all-night session, and with their
demonstrations ikept every one in and
about the Jail awake. last night the
ringieaders notified Sheriff Hill that they
and about O'Clock commenced an un-
earthly noise. Sheriff Hill prepared for
them, and at signal ono Of the cell
doors was opened and stream OF cold
water from the hose which was attached
to the city hydrant was turned upon the
four inmates. The nozzle was directed
by an expert fireman, and the prisoners
! were given NO quarter. In less than two
minutes the men cried for mercy, and
promised to make no further disturbance.
! Four other cells were visited and nine
prisoners in all were treated to the ice
cold soaking treatment. All the pris-
oners begged for mercy and promised bet
| ter behavior.
It was a severe remedy, and the affair is
causing much comment, but Sheriff
Hill is upheld by the county commits
sioners in the drast-- measures which
he felt called upon to adopt.
