MAKING WAMPUM.
A Process That Requires Both Pa
thence and Skill.

Process That Requires Both Pa
thence and Skill.
With certain tribes wampum Is still
highly priced and necklaces are worn
by men. women and children when
they are the fortunate pOssessOrs Of
them. To make wampum various kinds
Of shells are used, white and those
having lavender hue being most
liked.
The thin shells are broken into little
pieces and by aid Of nippers are made
as nearly round as possible. When
each piece is drilled in the center, the
old time fire kindling style of drill be-
ing used, the shells are then strung and
rolled with the hand on a fat stone
which grinds them until they are
smooth and even.
Comparatively few Indians among
those who prize wampum beads most
highly have the skill or patience to
make them. even though they had the
materials. The fact Is there are but
few wampum bead makers in the coun-
try, and 1t often happens that long pill
griinages must be made to secure the
requisites for really fine beads. and, as
with the white mans trinkets. that
which Is "far fetched and dear bought"
is most sought after for ornamentation.
Around some Of the ancient ruins in
the southwest the little disks Of wam-
pun are often found in the sand. and It
is probable that they We're deposited
in the graves in very early times and
washed out or exposed by the winds
action. These ruins are in the best
state Of preservation Of any in the
country. Absolutely nothing is known
of their builders. and the origin OF
these ruins was as much mystery
when Coronado first saw them in 1910.
when he made his famous INVASION as
it is to the people Of the present day

STOPPED THE OVATION,
Richard Wagner's Peculiar Expert
ence In Vienna.

Richard Wagner's Peculiar Expert.
ence In Vienna.
When Wagner was at the height Of
his popularity he visited Vienna. Bar
on Won Beust. then chancellor Of the
empire, was informed that the Prus-
sian party intended to give him an I'M
mense serenade--a serenade which
would have the air of German protest
against the tendency of the ministry to
make the union of Hungary. and AUS
tria more intimate. The demonstration
promised to arouse strong feeling.
Your excellency Is warned" said
the chancellors advisers. 1T Is impos-
sible to stop this manifestation unless
Wagner goes away, and he loves ova-
tons too well. Nothing will induce him
to depart"
You think so," said Beust, with n
smile.
An hour later Wagner was invited to
dine with the chancellor. He was fiat
tered by the invitation and accepted it.
After dinner. at which Beust was de-
lightfully affable and entertaining, the
chancellor remarked: Herr Wagner
are you interested in autographs?
have some very curious ones to show
you" And he opened Il portfolio where
were letters of Palmerston, Bismarck
Napoleon ILL.,. Heine and others.
Suddenly turning to paper, dated
1913, he said: "Ah. look ut this. 1t Is
very curious. What would your friend
his highness the king of Bavaria say If
this paper, which would be significant
in connection with the political sere-
made which the Germans are going to
give you. should be published tomor
row In the Vienna papers!'
The composer examined the paper
and recognized. with surprise, an old
proclamation Of one Richard Wagner,
who. an ardent revolutionist In 1913,
had proposed to the youth Of that time
to set fire to the palace Of the king Of
SaXony. He saw his autograph and
that it might be the means of getting
him into serious trouble.
Very curious, IS it not. Herr Wag-
ner?" said the minister.
VERY curious. your eXcellency." re-
piled his guest

left Vienna, recalled to Baireuth by
urgent business.-Strand Magazine.

Visit Country for Awful Purpose.

1t is said that the valley was
visited this week by a couple of
demoniacal individuals whom it
is alleged are following the busi-
ness of. enticing young girls of
the rural communities in this
state into leading a life OF shame
in the tenderloIn districts of Den
yer and other cities. Ii is said
that they had a victim spotted in
this neighborhood but failed to
land their catch.
1t is also stated that they ply
their business under false colors
and present plan for working
girls to make big money at a kind
of business which they fail to
fully explain till the victim is in
Denver or some large city and
without money, and then they
have them at their mercy. They
offer TO paw railroad fare and all
expenses to Denver. and the vic
Tins are caught by what is known
as blind" ads in the large daily
newspapers of the country which
allure them into the snare by
offers of large salaries. etc.
If the above statement is true
and there is no law that will land
the participants in that kind OF
business behind the bars. we will
then believe there is a demand
for the "unwrittcn" law.-Palisade

A Big Blaze.

On last Sunday night the 10th
inst, between the hours of ii and
2, our neighboring little town of
Dallas, on the u. & R. G. Ry was
startled by an alarm of FIRE which
resulted in the entire destruction
OF the town. with the exception
OF the depot and David Woods
ware house. The fire is supposed
to have originated from a defec-
tive fue in the kitchen of the
Dallas Hotel, and as there is only
one main thoroughfare and the
houses built dangerously close to
each other the whole town with
the exception spoken of was en-
veloped in flames. Mo- building
escaped on the main thoroughfare
OF the town and in a few short
hours the town was laid in ashes.
The loss is estimated at $4,000
although some place it higher
