OPENING OF
CRANBERRY
Lackawanna'S New Summer
Excursion Resort Opened
Decoration Day.
e.RED MEN, HOLD THE BOARDS

Despite the threatening weather IN
the morning, the formal opening day
of this new excursion resort OF the
Lackawanna Railroad was successful.
There were light showers from 8 to
II o'clock, but the excursionlstS es-
capped them, as the first train did not
arrive till 1910.
1t was Red Mems day, and the i'm
proved tsavages" were out in force.
Twenty-eight tribes were represented,
namely: Watching, of Newark, Kas-
kaskia, of Montclair, Owrapokomum,
of Summit, Watonunk, OF Madison,
Mondamon, of Harrison, Towanda,
of Kearny, Opeechee, of Elizabeth,
Rahwack, of Railway, Totowa, Os-
ceola, Red Cloud and Kioto, of Pater-
son, Passaick, of Passaic, Winnemuc-
ca, of South Orange, Temassee, of
Belleville, Winona, of Jersey City,
Mohuscowungie, of Morristown, Piute
of Dover, Blazing Arrow, of Rock
away, Hopocon, of Wharton, Pequest,
of Hackettstown, Ute, of Washington,
Teedyuscung, of Phillipsburg, Ioka, of
Stewartsville, Atoka, of Port Murray.
Pocahontas Degree: Whipponong, of
Morristown, Tioga, of Madison.
Reckoning braves, squaws and pap
pooses, there were about $500. In
addition to this special train from
Newton brought about 300, and
twenty minutes later an additional
hundred alighted from the regular
train. The excursion was planned
and directed by w. j. Smythe, of
Long Branch, great keeper of wam-
pun, and f. Elwood Leonard, of
Morristown, great sannap. Music
was furnished by Wilson's band of
twelve pieces from Newark.
The improvements made about the
place since last fall are many and
varied. The station platform is now
about 800 feet long, of which 200 feet
is covered; stairways, platforms and
arbors have been built, additional ram
bles laid out and graveled some
forty-fve or fifty rowboats are in SER
vice, and a gasolene launch will soon
be in readiness for pleasure parties.
Another dancing pavilion is pro-
jected, and it is sadly needed, especial
ly for large excursion parties.
The miniature railway furnishes
amusement for the children. 1t is
1000 feet long and fourteen-inch
gauge. The locomotive was ON ex-
hibition in the company's station at
Hoboken several weeks ago, and
later in Newark. The train accom-
modates from twenty to forty pas
sengers, according to the size of the
passengers.
On the east side of the railroad
numerous booths for the sale of ice
cream, soft drinks, ETC., have been
erected, and the grounds have all the
appearance of county fair.
At o'clock the Watching and Ute
tribes, dressed in Indian toggery,
participated in parade about the
grounds and station platform, and
then took the trail for the ball field,
where selected mines from these
tribes were to contest a game for the
pleasure of the spectators.
The batters were quite particular, as
there was a constant demand for thigh
balls" Prior to the parade war
party of the Watchungs took the war
path, but as there seemed to be but
one scalping knife in the detachment
the spectators didn't lose their top
knots.
1t was sociable, peaceful crowd, and
not an accident happened.

A sealskin Church.

The Eskimos possessed the most re-
markable place of worship in the
world. 1t was a sealskin church. For
ty sealskins were stretched over a
light framework, and in this tent, IS
by IL feet, services were held every
Sunday. But the church came to an
untimely end. One hard winter the
Eskimos' dogs, being half famished,
dined on the sealskins, and only the
frame was left. The Eskimos have
now erected dog proof tabernacle.

Among the RaraIongs, a great Afri-

are expert workers In metal, which they
still smelt from its native ore by the
most primitive methods ever devised by
man. This art was 10 them in former
days source OF wealth, influence and
power, end the legend is that when
people did not know the value Of the
stones found in their brooks a wise
man" saw vision. The spirit OF his
chief stood beside him and said. Cath
er stones and burn them to make
spears" The sage thought Il was a
dream and that the chief was hungry.
so he sacrificed an OK. But the vision
returned. and the chief looked sorrow
ful lie stood long time and at last
said:
MY son. Why do you not obey your
father7 co to the river, gather stones
and make hot fire. After that yov
will see Iron with your eyes"
The sage was greatly frightened and
feared some calamity. but dared not re-
fuse When he had made a hot FIRE,
iron came out OF II. and then he knew
the chief had taken pity on his chill
dren He told his son the secret before
he died. but he was a vain coxcomb
and. wishing TO show his own wisdom,
made iron In the presence Of strangers,
and 80 the secret Of the art was lost to
his tribe, but they have always contln-
ued 10 regard lnon as sacred above all
other metals.
