LOCOMOTIVE GROWTH
The Progress of Development Shown
 at the Worlds Fair.

St. Louis, Aug. 14,-(Special Corres- Dondence to the Republican.)-In the Transportation building are found vs- hicles of every description and from every land.
 Here is the first locomotive ever made. and side by side, in regular order are other locomotives, each more i'm proved than the last. until we reach those of the present time. The crudeSt of these is one with three enormous wheels. the cylinder being inside the upright boiler, and the engine having no cab or place for the engineer. Among the engines of late date, is the St. Louis. monster with twelve drive wheels. two complete and independent sets of cylinders, and a boiler that might run an ocean liner.
 All the latest Improvements in raii- road appliances are shown: brakes. turntables. switches. locomotive test ing machine and many others along this line. The locomotive testing ma chine is a huge engine puffing and blowing. the wheels flying around, but the engine never moving. It rests on the wheels of the testing machine. and works away all day without getting anywhere. train of Pullman coaches is shown 90 luxurioIsiy furnished, that they rival in splendOr the royal train of King Edward. of which a miniature model is on exhibition.
 Here We see an old stage coach that was used in exploring the Louisiana 1 territory soon after it's purchase. The development of the street car is also represented. beginning with the old-time mule cars and concluding with the elegant electric car and double decker.
 A great number of models of yachts | and ocean steamers are exhibited. showing the various styles of cabins and staterooms with their splendid equipments.
 In the Japanese section there is | large typographical map of Japan that Is very complete. All the steamship routes 10 and from the islands are out lined. as well as every telegraph line railroad. roadway, city and village m the emnire.
 In the automobile exhibit France takes the lead. Every type of machine IS shown, from the motor bicycle 10 | Immense cars and freight trucks. An army automobile with a Colts auto- matic gun is one that attracts much kattention.

NE WKIND OF RUBBER

During the past few months discov
 cry has been made that there are in the interior of Brazil vase forests Of trees from which can be produced a high grade of rubber Known to the trade as "manicoba." The area is said to be very large. but can not be defined, as the region has not been fully ex- piored. The attention called to the first discovery has led to further eX- ploration, with the result that from time to time comes notice of other sec tions where like trees occur in pro- fusion. The output of manicoba rub Der has rapidly increased during the last few years and bids fair to be d large item in the exports of Brazil.

THE PIMA INDIANS
There Is Ro Suffering, Anywhere on
 the Reservation.

A great deal has been said lately in the dispatches and the eastern papers about the starving Indians of the Pima reservation. Nothing had been heard here Of such a condition of affairs until about three weeks ago when committee from the Presbyterian Mis- aionary society of New York called upon the president and urged that something be done for the starving In- dians. The visit of the committee closely followed the journey east of the Rev. Charles Cook for thirty years a missionary among those Indians. T. happened that Commissioner Jones

TO DRAIN A BIG MARSH IN ORE.
 CON.

Arthur P. Davis of Washington, D. c. was a guest at the Portland while on his, way from the Klamath Lake coun- try to Pendleton and Walla Walld, where he will join F. II. Newell the chief of the reclamation bureau, for d conference with the state irrigation commissions of Oregon and Washing ton.
 Mir. Davis is the assistant chief en . gineer in charge of the reclamation work being undertaken by the Depart ment of the Interior and has been vis- iting the various places in the north D west where work is now. under con sideration for the irrigation of the semi arid lands.
 The Klamath Lake irrigation project will bring under cultivation more than 100000 acres of rich land which is now without water. The project Is not only important but feasible, according to the judgment of MT. Davis. who is con fioent that if the people of that section encourage the government in its work and give 1t the support that it should have, it will be less than a year before the vast tract is under water and the land made capable of bringing forth several crops each year.
 Tt is the intention of the service, ' stated MT. Davis, ito drain the Lower Klamath lake and open 5O,0OO acres to the farmer, and to lower the channel of the Klamath river from ten to twelve feet at the rapids below the lower lake, thus draining the marsh and opening many more acres for cultivation. This is all made possible by the peculiar formation of the ry.'-Portland Oregonian.

 saturday was Transportation day at the ia4r and the building was in gala attire with decoration of flowers. and festoons or ribbon. The forenoon was celebrated with grand procession of launches, boats. gondolas and canoes upon the water of the lagoons and Grand Basin. All were gaily decorated with flowers. flags and banners. Each nationality took part in this pageant in al ch2racteristis manner. The gondo- Hers Of Venice sang their native songs; the Filipino band played America" ;" and other nationl airs: the Igorrotes banged their tom toms. while one If their number carried the Stars and Stripes: the Egyptians of Cairo kept up an indescribabe dfn supposed tb be music; and the Indians of Alask, and Labrador sent their light canoes skimming over the water like grea. swans.
 In the afternoon there was a great procession on land, showing the various means of transportation used by the different nations of the globe.
 One very pleasing feature of this pro cession was the gaily attired Japanese ladies riding in jinrikishas, drawn by Japanese men. Another feature nf great interest but exceedingly incon- gruous, was the Igorrotes in their regu- lar undress uniforms riding in an eIe- gant up- date automobile

DO ANIMALS REAsoN7

The other day some careless or cruel person tossed a lighted match into the straw in the cage at Glen Island park. New York city, In which are kept more than 100 monkeys. The straw flared up and, shrieking with terror, the monkeys fled from the flames as far as the cage bars would permit
 All but one. a ring-tailed Brazilian monkey known as Chet. He came to- ward the fire, pushed the big drinking pan close to the burning straw, upset it's contents upon the flames, gravely watched them go out, and then mani fested his delight in monkey fashion.
 The keeper. who reached the spot with hose just as the fire was out, told the many witnesses that the monkey had been burned many times by cigars and firecrackers, and had been taught that cold water would relieve the pain. Hence the keeper concluded that the monkey had reasoned from such experience that water would put out @rq.
 In spite of John Burroughs and some other eminent naturalists who insis; that animals do not and cannot reason. it seems difficult to believe that tn. monkeys act did not show reasoning powers. Of course. it is possible that the monkey had seen a man pour water on n fire, and that its act was merely initiative.
 Tn view, however, of the universal fear of fire shown by wild animals and their universal instinct to get away from flames. 1t Is difficult to believe that there was not some element O. reason in the monkeys conduct in fac ing the fire rather than running away from #.
 The debate whether animals reason or not !s endless among naturalists.

DEATH RATE IN JAPAN

Clarence Ludlow Brownell, in his re- gently published book on Japan. says that the death rate for children is lower in Japan than it is in Europe and in America. This is as it should be. in country where the houses are of the ground a foot or two. and have no cellars. and the air inside is as fresh as 1t is out; where. too, in such places at least as 'Tokio. everyone bathes and has good scrubbing every day.

 Most lady owners ofmotor cars mak,: q point of driving themselves, and they have sfngularly few accidents, perhaps owing to the superiority of the oft decried feminine nerves over those of mere man.-New York American.

CHURCHES BUILT ON BRIDGES

The custom of building churches on bridges was common a hundred years and more ago. Several of these quaint old buildings are still left in Europe. The chapel of Our Lady still stands on the bridge which spans the Don at Rotterdam. The little chapel was built in the nineteenth century and was restored about 100 years ago. For sev- eral years, however, it has been used as a tobacco shop.

The date of the depar- ture from Germany has not yet been arranged, but from other whispers there is some probability that the first stop of the prince, who will make an all- around-the world cruise in a warship, will be at Newport, and the date of the visit September.

PopuIar separate Blouse.

Again and again it has been prophe-
sled that the separate blouses must be
put one side, but as yet practical wom-
en- will not give them up. The inbe-
tween blouses, dressy enough for the
ater or luncheons, but high-necked and
long sleeved, seem to get prettier and
prettier. The loveliest of them all
are made of those exquisite fiowered
silks-with shadowy flowers that fade
in out of the background in so artistic
a way. Those exquisite soft crepes
with flower prints are charming
draped and trimmed with tiny hand
run tucks, or pufigs, or lace. Soft
drapy silks are very good-but so are
stiff silks, and a combination of both.
The soft chiffon failles, in exquisite
ly soft shades Of pink, or blue, or yio-
let, make up into beautiful blouses.
But, besides silk, soft fine woolen
stuffs- mostly white. are being used a

stuffs, soft wool crepes and a dozen
others are made up into as attractive
blouses. in their way, as the silks are
