Gown Adorned With 600 Elk Teeth

A Nez Perce Indian woman, who
Is now held Mt Lewiston, Idaho, for
the murder of Henry Carsaw, a fel-
low trihesinan, has a fetching
gown" which should make any woman
in the United States green with envy,
inasmuch AS 1t is said to be worth
Slo,444.
Lucy's garment consists OF about
SOC elk teeth. They are arranged in
rows, according to the artistic incli-
nation OF the Nez Perce. The gar
ment Is an old one, having been
given the woman by one of her pa
rents. According to her story some of
the elk teeth were gathered after
hunts by her grandparents.
Inasmuch as elk teeth today are
worth from 81 to $50 apiece, accord
ing to their size, markings and how
they match other teeth, the ornamen-
tations CT Lucy's garment have a real
and intrinsic value far above that
usually worn by the average Indian
maiden or woman.

DYNAuTING DAM is CRIMINAL.
Perpetrators Must Stand Trial, Says
Supreme Court of Washington.

Ross * Tiffany, mayor Of Sunny
side, and j. A. Driscoll will have to
stand trial in the Kittitas county
courts for having blown up the dam
of Lombard & Horsley at the outlet
of Gle Elum lake. says the Yakima
Republic The supreme court says
there is criminal statute against
such an act. The court reverses the
decision of Judge Rigg in dismissing
the case at the time it was called in
Ellensburg for trial. Judge Rigg held
that there was no statute covering
the case.
Mr.. Tiffany was the chief engineer
Of the Washington Irrigation company
at the time the act was committed.
He was employed by that company,
It is alleged, to blow up the dam
built by Horsley and Henry II. Lom-
bard at Lake Gle Elum for the pur-
pose of creating a surplus water sup
ply for their canal, which they were
building at the time to wateY lands
In the Parker Bottom district, their
! works being the extension of the
Fowler ditch, then being construct
ed under the name of the Union Gap
Irrigation company. With Mr.. Tiff
fany at the time 1t is alleged was J.
A. Driscoll, as assistant.
These two men early one morning
in August, 1905, went to Lake Gle
Elum and by the use of dynamite, 1t
is alleged, blew up the dam and let
the water out into the Yakima river
At the time water was short in the
Yakima river and 1t was with diff
company got enough water to half
| fill the Sunnyside canal. The COM
pany claimed at the time 1t had moth
ing to do with the act, but subse-
quently developments showed that 1t
had.
Z. F. Benson, II Is claimed by the
Washington Irrigation company, had
a hand in the affair. The Washing
ton Irrigation company claimed that
the act was committed ostensibly by
the Benson people, owners Of the
Prosser Falls Land & Irrigation COM
pany and that Mr.. Tiffany and Mr,
Driscoll were sent to the Benson
company as an accommodation TO do
| the work.
The two men were arrested and
gave bond for their appearance in
court. When they were called for
trial Judge Rigg dismissed the case
against them on the ground that there
was no statute covering their action.
An appeal was taken by the prosecu-
ton to the supreme court.

To Gather Alaskan Flora.

Mrs. ]. Craig of Dawson, Y. T., has
taken upon herself the unusual task
OF collecting and mounting the COM
plete flora of Alaska. Mrs. Craig,
who is the wife of a Dawson pho
ttographer, and herself an artist, has
secured already more than 100 dis
tinct flower specimens which are
found growing wild in Alaska and
the adjoining Klondike. These she
has mounted between glass, by a Sc
cret process which she herself devised,
which enables the flowers to be pre-
served without loss Of their original
wonderful coloring. She intends to
continue her labors up to the time OF
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition,
and to exhibit the collection at Seat
tie in 1909. y

Unlted statcs Fruit Exnorts.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The great
falling off in exports of fruit from
the United States this season is al
most entirely due to Germany, the
people of which country have been
buying as sparsely as possible from
this country, in all things, for the
past year or more, due to the failure
of this government to make recipro-
cal tariff arrangements with Ger
many. For the fiscal year ended
June, 1905, total fruit exports were
valued at s14,s57,272, while in the
corresponding period the previous
year, they amounted to s20,34S,299.
