Robert c. Nolan, who is known far and

When Nolan is in action on the dia-

AN IGORROTE BEAUTY.

for their entertainment. Now tho
homes have been completed and are
ready for the inspection Of the brides.
Tugema is the demure maiden whose
dreamy eyes have soothed the savage
breast Of the much-tattooed Bocosso.
She is 16 years old. and, like her lord,
is full-blooded Suyoc. Bocosso is dis
tinguished from other Igorrotes be-
cause Of the unusual size Of the ear
ornaments which he wears. These are
large pieces of wood inlaid with mir
rors and inserted in CHASTITY Sits
through the ears.
Laguima, 17year-old belle Of the
Bontoc tribe. is to be the bride Of the
warlike Domingo, whose tattoo marks
indicate that he has brought his share
of human heads to the camp Of his
chief. This young lady is very much
attached to her pipe. and during re-
hearsals of the marriage ceremony she
keeps it constantly in her mouth.
Antonio, the great chief Of the Igor
rotes, has already approved the
matches which Cupid has made among
his dark-skinned and little-clothed sub
iects, and the Official permission Of Gov.
Hunt, the representative Of the United
States government, under whose charge
the natives were brought to st. Louis,
has been given.
On the day Of the weddings great
feast of dog and rice will be prepared
for all the tribes, and they will gather
on the plaza opposite the governors
bungalow. After the guests have
cleaned their plates the strange dish
of dog entrails will be served to the
two couples When this has been eaten
Patriarch Byungasiu will chant bless
ing upon the unions. No promises will
be exacted. no advice given. With but
a single swallow two hearts will be
made as one.
It is to dance and eat dog that the
Igorrote lives, and it IS difficult to tell
which pastime he likes the better.
When the season of festivities is over
the brides will be taken to their new
homes, where friends have fixed them
out for housekeeping in real 1gorrote
style. Then the men change their
names, but they do not take the names
Of their wives. as would be the case II
the American custom were reversed.
It all depends upon what happens
during the early honeymoon as to what
titles Domingo and Bocosso will bear
in their after lives, for their new names
ara selected from some incident sur
rounding their wedding. If it should
rain and thunder one or the other
might, after the true custom, be chris
tened Bad Weather or its equivalent In
the lingo of the dogeaters.

Butter Shipments.

The first car of butter shipped from
the jamestown creamery to the j. b.
Egen Co., at Seattle, went the other
day. Its value was about S. 200, and
the car contained about 500 tubs 1t
is expected that the creamery will ship
at least two cars a week during the
season, which will mean payment
to the farmers within radius of IS
miles of between $4,000 to $4,000 q
week. The butter is collected from
the smaller creameries, shipped into
this creamery, repacked and sent out
to the coast along with the surplus
from this creamery. There is a de-
mand for all the butter that can be
made, and a good deal of it goes to the
Klondike trade. This is all new busi-
ness, developed within the last twelve
months, and speaks we'll for the
growth of the butter making of that
locality.

later secretary of war.
The next year saw Japan in the throes
OF a fierce civil war. The rebellion was
led by her greatest soldier, Field Marshal
Salgo, who had with him some $4,000 Of
her best trained samural. Yamagata led
the forces which crushed the rebellion.
Saigo having been slain, Yamagata be-
came the first military man in the en-
pire and was promoted to the full rank
of general.
Being a man of great mental ability,
boundless energy, and strong person.
altty, he soon became almost as promi-
nent in the political world as in the mill
tary and was several times prime min
lister.
When war started with China In 1894
Yamagata was Immediately given COM
mand of the first army that invaded
Manchuria. Those who were with the
army at the time describe the immense
enthusiasm with which the coming of
the great general was created by his
soldiers. The rigors of Manchurian
winter speedily reduced Yamagata to
such condition that the emperor, fear
full OF losing altogether the services of
his ablest officer, called him back to
Toxic to act as his chief military adviser.
After the war Yamagata was made a
marquis and the new military rank of
field marshal was established, to which
hnx A.
nese situation called for the appointment
of supreme council Of war Yamagate
was placed at its head.

Gov. Hunts first intimation that
lovemaking was being INDUCED in by
his wards was when Domingo and Boz
cosso, two of the young warriors, lay
aside their spears and shields and sud-
denly began building each a house
after the fashion of his clan.
Domingo is q Bontoc and his people
prefer the low-roofed structure with
dirt floor. Bocosso is a Suyoc. It Ia
the custom Of his kind to rear their
homes upon high foundations with
floors some distance from the ground.
In such ways the young men set at
their tasks and when it was observed
what they were about all the village
gossiped over the incident. Friends
gathered around while Domingo and
Bocosso worked and helped them to
shape the timbers and select the nipa
grass with which the houses are con-
structed.
While the men labored the women
brought water and food and sang songs

Chicken Raiser.

Some time ago story was published
relative to chicken raising by a tenant
on farm near Minot, owned by NJ. r..
Brown. It was to the effect that the
tenants twenty-five pullets were 90
busy laying they had no time to nest,
and the tenant therefore determined
to impress the roosters into service as
settlers, and did SO by locking them
into the nests. Mr.. Brown visited the
farm, and is authority for the state
ment that one of the roosters Matched
out BROOD of turkeys. While Mr..
Brown would not take an oath that
hens eggs were placed in the nest, he
would swear that the turkeys were
Matched out by the rooster, and that
several other ROSTERS are now cover
ing eggs
