but most of them think the practice in
dicative of extreme "6nckyness." Any
way, the dog is thrown into the pot of
boiling water, the grass follows and the
fire is stirred up.
About an hour later, a big Igorrote
pounds tom-tom and the tribe gathers
around the pot. Tin pans are produced
and with the aid of his spear, each war
ror helps himself. After the men, the
women dip in and they feed the children
The humane society objected to the daily
menu of dog, and it was Mortified at the
idea of beating the stew to death. It's
officers suggested roast beef au jus. A
caterer served some. The Igorrotes
tasted il and chased the caterer off the
grounds Chicken met with no better re-
ception. The Tgorrotes demanded dog,
and The city pound was called upon. About
300 dogs are captured twice week at the
pound and these are turned over alive to
our future councilmen and congressman.
The exposition officials claim no more
dog banquets are served the pagan visitors.
But the dogs go across the bridge to the
Quartet, a little later yelps are heard and
then the dinner tom-tom sounds. OF course
the lgorrotes may be training them for
exhibition purposes-one never can tell,
for visitors are not invited to dine on the
island. But the Igorrotes look well fed
and happy and-the dogs keep passing over
the bridge.
The Igorrote is a cheerful looking cuss
in the daytime. If one met him on
dark night in an alley, it's doubtful if the
impression would be favorable. A bunch
of them was paraded down town the other
day. Somebody had given them cob pipes
and each stuck his pipe in his hair It

ATTEMPT TO
KILL MORGAN

Motorman F. J. Morgan, of the South
Tacoma line, again narrowly escaped from
the clutches of hihwayman early this
morning, when an attempt was made to
shoot him while his car was going at full
speed. The bullet missed its mark and,
whizzing by the motorman's face, lodged
in the car door.
1t was about l2:i5 this morning and
while the car was making its last trip from
South Tacoma to the city, that the incl
dent happened. Near the Wapato bridge
the car met a horseman, going in the
opposite direction, and when the two
passed, the horseman raised his gun and

As soon as the car reached the city the
happening was reported to the police 1t
is thought that this case may have bear
ing on last Wednesday mornings hold-up,
when two men attempted to rob Morgan
and failed, departing with bruised bodies
instead of Morgan's cash

ARRESTED FOR
SERIOUS CRIME

Last evening W. A. Russell, railroad
man, was arrested by Patrolman Conner
for criminal assault on a little girl. 1t is
alleged that the child was induced by Rus
sell to 90 into a shed in the rear Of a
grocery story near the corner of Jefferson
avenue and Seventeenth street, where tue
assault was committed.
The girl became frightened and screamed.
Her cries attracted the notice of people
in the neighborhood and when a search
was made she was found under the side
walk.
The girl, who is about IA years old, was
brought before Judge Griffin this morn
ing and told her story. The case is now in
the hands of the prosecuting attorney.

"a GIRL FROM DIXIE"

Among the many favorites in Messrs.
Shubert, Nixon & Zimmerman's musical
comedy novelty, "a Girl from Dixie"
which comes to the Tacoma theater next
Sunday and Monday, are Beatriz Bronte,
who has been called one of the most beau
tiful girls on the stage; Essie Lyons,
Vietry Gale, Olga May and Annie Wilson,
whose attractive stage presence and vocal
abilities have done much to promote the
success of the production. Essie Lyons
song, "When the Sunhower Turns to the
SUM-" is one of the strongest hits of the
piece.

CAPTAIN COWLES AND OFFICERS ARE
HELD BLAMELESS FOR EXPLOSION

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 3.-The
text of the findings of the court of inquiry
held to investigate the cause of the Mis-
souri, disaster was made public this after
noon. The report states that the cause
of the accident was the unexpected ignition
OF two sections of charge of smolleless
powder, then in the gun, by flare back.
The flames ignited two sections in the
ammunition car and shower of burning
powder was projected down to the Pinch
handling room, igniting eight other sec
tons of smokeless powder. The accident
was in no respect due to fault or neg
ligence on the part of the officers or the
members of the crew.
The court finds the following worthy OF
