There was a Canadian gentleman
here that wanted some men tnat knew
something about farm work, and he

Dress Much Like Mexieans.

The Yaquis of both sexes dress
much like the everyday Mexicans.
When a girl is of marriageable age.
the bridegroom is chosen by her faith
er. Young men who are ambitious Of
recognition as full-fedged warriors
undergo tests of endurance, such as
laceration by eagles claws. Formerly
there was a custom of exchanging
wives, practiced at an annual eere-
monial feast, and those who did not
exchange wives on this occasion were
not considered good Yaquis. The
women carry their infants on their
backs, attached to a baby-board Of
bamboo splints, at the head Of which a
bent hook supports cloth to shade the
head Of the child.
There are still about 10000 Yaquis.
and their number seems to remain
about the same, notwithstanding the
losses of war. Fortunately the women
are prolific.

Supt. ". J. Hills, of the N. O. 81
st. L. after the meeting of the coun-
Gil last night, stated that his road is
in favor of putting in automatic gates

only few crossings, and will put up
a gate at the depot intersection where

The Illinois Central it seems Goes
not object to placing i'll the gates
where they are needed. but claims
that some Of its crossings are so unim-

not want to put in the gates at heavy
expense except where the traffic is
heavy enough to Justify them.

Board of Public Works Outl in
ing its Work.
IL il Expected that Formal Organiza-
ton Will Take Place This
Week.
SOME ORDINANCES NECESSARY

While no public announcements OF
the organization OF the board OF pub.
lie works recently appointed by May
or ID. A. Yeiser has been made, il is
said the members will organize this
week and enter into the actual duties
of such board.
Ii has been given out authoritively
that the members have been holding
meetings to outline the duties OF the
board and also their power, and this
completed, the board will immediate
ly effect organization and announce
the fact to the public.
The reason privacy is resorted to IN
organization is because the members
of the board and Mayor Yeiser are be
sieged with'persons who have business
with the board, and until the board IL
organ zed and in working harness, the
members do not care TO make known
their actions and plans.
The duties OF . board OF public
works is clearly outlined in the char
ter, but there are other regulation,
and powers held by the board which
are not included in the charter, and
which may be covered by ordinance,
and IL is on these that the member,
are quietly working.
