A Decision That May Prevent Orders

Business Openings in the Northwest.

1t seems to me that the man with a
small capital can find no better oppor-
tunity for investment and for the es-
tablishment of small business than
in some one of the many growing
towns of the northwest.
The Great Northern Railway issues
a booklet ''Business Openings, -
which adequately and Complementary
describes the needs of the many towns
along it's line and contains detailed
list of the business openings afforded
the man with limited means as we'll
as the big investor. I do not know
of a section of the country which
offers such limitless opportunities to
the man who is content to live in a
new country. The fact that in nearly
every state of the northwest there is an
available supply for almost every
form of manufacture, offers to the
chance to operate
close to the supply of raw material.

Peter Lenich and Lue Loujer, in
dicted on the charge of numbering
Peter Korceran at Eveleth during a
drunken row recently, were placed on
trial at Duluth, May IS. The in
formation in their case is that on
Easter Sunday last the men had a
celebration at one of the Austrian
boarding houses near the Eveleth
mines. Loujer and Korceran are said
to have become involved in a fight,
into which Lenich also became mixed.
Korceran was getting the worst of the
fight and started to run. Lenich is
said to have chased him with knife
and plunged the weapon several times
into the body of the fleeing man caus-
ing his death on the street. Follow.
ing the murder, Lenich and another
Austrian who was wounded during
the boarding house fight disappeared
from Eveleth, but later were captured
at lonely cabin in the North woods
on information furnished by settler.

The Rage For Diamonds.

=
Contrary to popular belief, the mar
ket value of diamonds does not depend
upon their scarcity. The annual re.
port Of the De Beers company, which
operates the great South African mines.
shows that the average price obtained
Tor gems during the last twenty years
has increased with the increase of pro-
duction.
In 1883, when the business of SCOOP
ing up diamonds at Kimberley was
new. the price averaged about $3.50
per carat Seven years later the price
was about IS per carat. In 1900 the
price Of Kimberley diamonds was $s.72
per carat, in 1908 it was $1O.33, and in
1904 it reached $11.92 per carat for the
whole output.
Meanwhile the aggregate Of sales
was increasing, as the report shows
that the output was approximately
SIC, OO0.O 900 worth in 1900 and nearly
$25,O00,OOO in 1904. Evidently the de-
mand for diamonds increases with the
supply, and the dictates Of fashion
rather than considerations Of intrinsic
value regulate. the demand.

in spite of the fact that the arms of

THE PHILIPPINE IGOROrEs.

The Princeton Boy Tells More About What
He saw at the st. Louis Fair and Ends
His Narrative.
This is one of the most interesting
places on the grounds. It is known
as the Igorote village. The natives
are there in their native state; most
OF them were naked, as they are in
their homes across the ocean. AS the
climate is great deal colder over
here than in the Islands, they were
forced to put on clothes. The people
live in nipa huts built by their own
hands, grouped into neighborhoods
of the different tribes. The Igorote
is one of the most conspicuous races
of northern Luzon. Scientists have
declared that, with the proper train
ing they are susceptible of high state
of development, and unlike the Ameri-
can Indian, will accept rather than
defy, the advance of American civili-
cation. They are barbarians. They
have kind of spirit worship, and all
d.
rule they are head hunters.
The people are copper colored, have
high cheek bones, fiat noses and thick
lips. Their hair is straight and black
and in many tribes worn long.
Probably no tribe in the archipelago
can produce such splendid specimens
physically. The men have strong
chests, muscles we'll developed, and
possess great strength and power of
endurance.
The women are generally we'll
formed, erect, and among some tribes,
as graceful as oriental women. In
their native condition they have only
scant costumes; woven brech-cloth
of gaudy color for men and an apron
of leaves for the women.
Three tribes of the Igorote are at
present represented on the Philippine
reservations" the Bontogs, the
Suyogs, the Tinguianese.
T. K. Hunt, formerly lieutenant
governor Of the Province of Bontog,
has charge of ia natives. These were
selected as most representative speci-
mems OF their race, hardy, athletic,
lithe-limbed, copper colored men, and
women whose ideal physical develop
ment is a wonder to all who visit them.
Their chief is Antonio, whose breast
marks of blue tattooing tell that in
his head-hunting raids, his tribe has
five times celebrated the successful
outcome of murderous excursions.
Antonio hopes sometime to wear the
red beak of the great bird found in
the mountains of his country, which
adornment signifies that the wearer
has taken a least twenty heads.
Antonio can not speak English, but
he well knows the value of an Ameri-
can dollar; for he is the custodian of
about $500 tribal money collected in
pennies, nickles and dimes thrown
into copper receptacles, about which
the Igorote sings after he has finished
the weird dance of his tribe.
The BontOgs come from the most
northern districts of Luzon. They
are barbarians, having escaped from
savagery through the necessity of
cultivating the soil. There is not
enough food in the wild animals or
vegetables in his mountain home to
sustain him, so he is obliged to till
the soil. For this purpose he has
developed the only true irrigation in
the Islands; as with it agriculture has
produced excellent crops where with
out irrigation no cultivation would
