After three years Of service as q SUR
geon Of the United states army In the
Philippines, DR.. E. r. Tenney. Of Kan
sas City, Kan, has returned 20 his home
in that city, reports the Star.
The sultan Of Sulu, as described by
DR.. Tenney, is hardly the sort Of
potentate pictured in comic opera. He
is a very ordinary individual, who
lives I'D a very ordinary way and does
about as all the rest Of the Sulus do.
'The Sultan Of Sulu assumes control
over all the Moros," DR.. Tenney said,
''but in reality he has no control over
any but those who choose to follow him.
/ met the sultan on several occasions
| and was treated very cordially by him.
| He is not a man Of great strength Of
character or intelligence, but possesses
craft and cunning. The greatest man in
| the sultan's domain is Hail Butu, the
prime minister.
aI visited the sultan in his home at
Miabon, directly across the Island Of
Sulu from the town Of Iolo. 1t is a very
| ordinary house-nOthing like a great
palace-and only a little better than the
average native home, He has four legal
wives and a fine string of ponies.
ellis chief sport is to bring down po'
mics and race them against the army OIL
GERS ponies, with such side attractions
as spear dances, accompanied by gongs
tomtoms and native drums. These ar
the musical instruments Of the Sulus
for the Sulus are not a musical people
like the Filipincs.
''The sultan sometimes wears Euro
pean clothes, and while he entertain
his guests very nicely after his oWl
fashion, he seldom gives a feast. Tn

Want School Land.

County School Superintendent
Elsensohn returned from an offci-
al visit to the schools on the reser-
walton and informs us that great
interest is being taken in the sale
of school lands which takes place
here on December 10. The farm
ers all over that section have just
harvested big crops and this with
the heavy immigration OF the past
season has had a tendency to
greatly increase the demand for
good farm lands. The bidding
promises to be spirited and there
is little doubt but all land will be
sold for much more than the price
at which it was appraised. The
existing feeling is indeed gratifying
as it will give Idaho county house
holders where we only had tenants,
increase the assessment rolls and
swell the school funds.
