SEATTLE, March 3o.--Lake Washing

pigs, internationally conducted at the
various breathing spots along the lake
shore for the past seven years, will be a

Ballinger yesterday announced his policy
in this regard in unmistakable terms, the
substance of which is that he will direct
the chief of police to enforce the law.
This means the immediate suppression of
all such places, for it is conceded that
the police power is amply sufficient to

MARRIAGE IN KOREA.

The American woman has something to
be thankful for even if she has husband
who beats her or one that swears at her
she married him with her eyes open and
if he abuses her she can tell him waht she
thinks of him.
Not so with the wife of Korea. If she
has seen her husband before the marriage
VOWS have been solemnzed it is because she
has done so without the knowledge of her
elders, who arrange the marriage according
to their own and their ancestors ideas of
weddings. The brides face is carefully hid
den from the bridegroom until after the
ceremony; he is never allowed even
glimpse of her. Her face is prepared for
first view by being thicllly covered with
white powder and heathenishly daubed
with splashes Of red and her eyeids are
glued together.
For months she is not allowed to speak
a word. Even when her long silence has
been broken her speech must be brief and
nfrequent.
No one in Korea ever heard of such a
thing as the rebellion of either bride or
groom against carrying out this unusual
proceeding. Neither ever refuses to marry
the other.

j. r. SHEARING TELLS
OF RICH ORE FIELDS

James r. Shearing one Of the trustees
of the Sure Thing Gold-Copper Mining &
Smelling company, who is also foreman in
charge Of work at the mines, is in town
for few days. He brought with him
some fine samples of copper ore from the
Clipper mine, which are now on display
at Watson 4 Watsons office. Two assays
have been made of these samples and the
results show values of 5000 to S26.54. a
great deal of the stock in the mine is
owned by Tacoma people. In an inter
view this morning Mr. Shearing said:
The Clipper mine is certainly won
der, and is destined soon to become one
of the most famous in the Northwest
The ledge from which these samples are
taken shows on the surface a width OF
294 feet, and 800 feet below where this
vast ore body crops out crosscut tunnel
has been driven 400 feet Three hundred
and twenty feet of this distance is in
solid granite, but the remaining 80 feet is
in mineral, such as these samples show
and we are still driving in ore. and do not
expect to reach the opposite wall of this
great ledge short of a distance of 220
feet from where we now are.

ued Mr.. Shearer, Eve have in the Clipper

FAIR WILL Be
READY ON TIME

ST. LOUIS, Mo. March 30-But one
month remains until the opening of the
St Louis worlds fair. Stupendous as the
task may seem to the ordinary visitor
to the grounds at the present time, the
officials declare confidently that one month
from last night will see the great ex-
POSITION dressed in her best bib and tuck
err and all ready for the official Inaugural
ton. Apparently much remains to be
done before the fair will be ready to re-
eeive visitors, but it is apparent also
that almost incredible progress is being
made daily in the work of clearing up
the grounds, completing the smaller build
ngs and installing exhibits. From now on
no permits will be issued for new CON
structions. and as all of the buildings now
under way are pretty well advanced it
appears likely that the actual building
work will be over when the exposition
opens its gates If this proves true, it
will be something unprecedented in the
history Of great expositions.
The installation of exhibits is progress
ing at rapid rate Great booths are
going up with fairylke rapidity, in the
electrical, agricultural, manufactures and
other departmental buildings Many for
egn exhibits are still on the way and
their simultaneous late arrival will cause
great rush Of work at the last moment
Within a week or ten days an addi-
tional force OF workmen will be put on
to clear up the grounds, sod the spacious
lawns and lay out flower beds The la
goons and basins have been fill@l with
water this week, the outside electrical dec
orations on the big buildings are being put
in place and other signs are abundant
that the great exposition is fast nearing
completion.

In his researches in numerous out-of-t the

strangest experiences in the great pigmy
forest in Africa. The pigmies viii not do
any work, says Mr. Cell, but devote their

inhabited not only by pigmies, but by
people of ordinary size. These latter are
completely terrorzed by the pigmies, who
make them do all the work while they
hunt. Mr.. Cell says the pigmies are a very

such moral exercise
We have come to expect a germ to pop
up like a mushroom, but we haven't been
looking for a scientific sleep producer. But
we have one, two, even three such devices
before we have become accustomed to the
idea. 4iFf
One of these devices is called the
"alouette.' 1t is a tiny mahogany box,
small enough to be carried in the coat

There are already several varieties of the
"alouette."
Another method of inducing sleep, which
is judged by science as more effective than
sheep-counting is the reflected ray of light.

TAKING INDIAN LANDS

The question of whether the Indian
lands are assessable or not was deliherated
on in Judge SMELLS department of the
superior court yesterday on application of
James Cloudy, an Indian, who seeks 70
restrain the county assessor from assessing
his lands.
The main question in the case for the
courts consideration was one of statutory
enactment. If the limitations on the land,
the sale or lease of which was prohibited
except by authority of the government,
have not expired in accordance with the
act of the legislature and the subsequent
act Of congress, it is agreed that the land
is not assessable.
