OLD INDIAN BATTLE GROUND.

Kennewlck Valley. Washington.

Tokens Of Peace and. War Found In the
Kennewlck Valley, Washington.
Where the great steel bridge of the
Northern Pacific railway spans the
Columbia river, half way betwean Spo-
kane and Seattle, Washington, and
near the confluence of the Snake and
Columbia rivers there was fought sixty
Years ago battle to the death between
two Indian tribes, probably the Cay
uses and the Wallahwallhs or the
Clhollhs, which latter tribe was reck-
less and thieving ono.
Great Irrigating Ditch Completed.
The railway company has recently
completed great irrigating ditch 25
miles long and 20 feet wide that is
turning this valley adjacent to the
west bank of the Columbia from sage
brush plane into what few years
hence will be an orchard and garden
spot 20 miles square, with a climate
peculiarly adapted, it is said, to rails
ing all sorts of vegetables, berries,
peaches, apples, plums, cherries and
alfalfa. In the tearing up process an
old Indian battle ground has been found
on the came spot where Lewis and
Clark, the pioneer explores, pitched
their camp and from which they
pushed their way up stream to the
mouth of the Yakima river in the year
1905.
Famous Generals Fought There.
This is all historic ground as at q
later date Grant and sheridan and
other noted army officers were sta
toned in this vicinity-Grant in 1852
8, Sheridan in 1866. both OF them
taking part in repelling Indian upris-
ings. In this old battle ground, and
first by means of we'll, there was un-
earthed recently, skeletons, flint lock
rifles, Indian beads, brass badges bear
ing date Of 1S46, broken hatchets,
spear heads, elks teeth and a piece of
cloth or mating spun from threads uf
weeds or hemp. Every thing went to
chow that this part of the Kennewick
valley was at one and the same time
an old isdian battle and burying
ground, as it is now known that the
Indians congregsted here in great num-
bers on account of the mild climate, es-
pecially during the winter months
when the inclement weather of the
higher attitudes drove them into more
hospitable regions.
Once Strong Trading Post.
How many residents of Washington
state know that the junction of the
Wallawalla and Columbia rivers was,
prior to the visit OF Lewis and Clark,
the cite of a Hudson Bay company
post, Ft. Wallawalla, now known as
Wallula, and that on their eastbound
trip on April 20, 16, Lewis and Clark
crossed the Columbia river here and
encamped about mile from the Co.
lumbia. at the mouth of the "Walla.
wollah" river.

Syrian Manners.

In Syria people never take off their
caps or turbans when entering the
house or visiting friend, but they al.
ways leave their shoes at the door.
There are no mats or scrapers outside,
and the floors inside are covered with
expensive rugs, which in Moslem
houses are kept very clean and used to
kneel upon while praying.

Waking Francois.

The name of Millet, the painter,
has been made familiar to many be-
sides art students by his "Angelus.' -
How the genius of the artist was
reused and encouraged is told in his
recent biography:
The most original person of the
family and the one who had the most
influence upon Millet was his grand
mother. She was an old country
woman of intense religious faith, iv-
ing in God, seeing everything in God,
and mingling God in every scene of
nature and every act of life. i
One Of .Millet's earliest recollec-
tons was Of his grandmother wax
ing him when he was quite little
child and saying to him:
''Up, my little Francois! If YOU
only knew what a long time the birds
have been singing the glory of God!''
When he had to leave home to 20 to
Paris his grandmother said: II
would rather see you dead than fun-
faithful to Gods commands"
At a later time, when he had begun
to make his way in Paris, she re-
minded him again: #
Remember, my Francois, that Won
Wac a Christian before you were q
painter. Paint for eternity. and
think that the trump wh.Sh viii call
to judgment is on the eve of sound

that passed. Purposely, she drew in
to corner to watch him and realize
the fact that it was for her his eyes
were so intent and his face so eager.
She could wait and prolong the joy
of the coming moment, for when they
did meet 1t would be for always.
AS she turned her eyes for an in
slant to follow the surging crowd,
she caught, or fancied she caught, a
sight of Miguel's retreating figure.
Was it possible her escape had al
ready been discovered, she wondered.
There was no doubt in her mind as to
the measures he would take when he
found she would not return home
with him, To Miguel the honor of
his house was dearer than anything
in the world. He would not scruple
to kill Gringo to preserve his family

Glassmaking In Japan.

The art of making glass was intro

by Hollander, who settled at Osaka.
For several generations the knowledge
of the process was confined to a single
family, and it was not until about 1879
that the employment Of coal instead Of
charcoal and the construction of brick
chimneys enabled the manufacturers
to introduce improvements which placed
the industry on a substantial basis.

Ames Of Boston. She has a record of
6,S72.2 pounds of milk in five months,
producing 312.26 pounds of butter fat.
Need Of Improvement In the Dairy.
The larger part of dairy products is
produced in such poorly kept and in
sanitary dairy barns, diaries, cream
cries and cheese factories and they are
of such inferior and uneven grade that
it not only discourages the use Of all
dairy products, but keeps the price Of
first class products much below what
it should be-
1t is largely owing to the present in
sanitary practices in dairying, causing
the poor quality of milk, butter and
cheese, that people are reducing the
amount consumed, even in these pros
porous times, when money is spent
freely On account Of this increase in
demand the price is not so high in pro-
portion to the price Of other foods as it
should be.-Cor. Chicago Tribune.
Homemade Starters.
A homemade starter can be made by
saving one or two quarts of milk from
some healthy COW, as near fresh as
possible. The milk should have a good
flavor, be well aerated, placed in
sterile vessel, covered with cloth and
allowed to develop the required acid
naturally This is used instead of the
commercial culture, and from this
point the treatment would be the same
as with the culture. When the starter
is added to cream it should be thor
oughly strained through small enough
mesh strainer to insure a thorough
breaking up of the coagulated parts.
No arbitrary rule as to the length Of
time a culture or starter will retain
it's purity can be given, but to a great
extent it is in the hands of the opera
tor to prolong or shorten the time.-W.
E. Griffith in American Agriculturist.
A Big Dairy Syndicate.
Hon. George D. Meiklejohn, former
assistant secretary of war, and party
of capitalists have been purchasing
from the Union Pacific Railway COM
pany large tracts Of land on the ''di-
vide" in Nebraska. This syndicate pro-
poses to bring 500 families of Danes
to settle on these lands and engage ex-
tensively in dairying, the cream to be
sent to Omaha and Denver. This land
lies contiguous to the Burlington and
Union Pacific railroads and is consid
cred the finest grazing land in Nebras-
ka. The Danish Emigration society of
Minnesota will furnish these emf
grants with ten cows each to start
and enough money to erect houses,
purchase farming implements and nee
essaries Of life for one year, the mon
ey to be paid back in small installments
at very low rate of interest.
Rules For MiIkmen.
