and deer heads on the front, geomet-
rical figures in the oblong beads upon
the back and hung with elks teeth.
Emily Paul was also given prize for
a beaded bag representing a chief
standing at the head of a cayuse, the
entire bag finished with a fringe of
American pennies. The American
eagle was easily the most popular de-
vice among the bead workers. though
a handsome team of black horses on
blue ground proved a clever piece of
work.
Baskets Not So Numerous.
The baskets were not nearly so
numerous as the bead work. though
the Yakimas still make a fairly good,
I though not highly colored basket.
Celia Skitwisa took a prize on Indian
bowls and Mrs. Julia Jim on pipes.
There were several buckskin dresses,
now getting scarce and for which the
squaws ask big prices if they can be
prevailed upon to part with them.
There were also examples Of the In
dian trunk. a folded wallet made of
calf skin and decorated in reds and
were made of buffalo hide, and arr
now very valuable.
Are Successful Farmers.
That the Indians are successful far
mers was shown by a bushel Of good
appearing oats grown by William
Charley and of wheat grown by Tim
Nye. Exhibits of cous and kamus
roots, of dried huckleberries, and
black berries and of nuts were made
as well as biscuits made from the
crushed roots of the kamas and the
cous. The bread is of the shape and
consistency of brick and requires an
amount of soaking before It is edible
Exhibits Of kapul kapul, an Indian
bark medicine and of bitter root, were
included, most Of this display being
made by Ellen Watson.
Scalp of White Woman.
The excitement of the exhibit was
bunch of black hair hanging from a
wire and labelled Scalp Of a white
woman, 1862, She is dead" The
question which agitated most of the
visitors was whether it was or was
not real scalp. The majority inclin-
ed to the belief that this exhibit had
been borrowed from the nearest hair
dressing parlors. though some insisted
on its authenticity.
The potlatch will close today with a
big program of squaw races, buck
races and a parade of notables.

COFFIN BROS. MAKE
SPLENDID LAND SALE
Receive Large Figure for Land on the
Columbia River Between Trini-
dad and Beverly.

For $4,000 there has been sold
four sections of the Coffin Ba bcock
land, including an irrigated ranch, on
the Columbia river. The buyers are
Seattle syndicate. The land lies
across the river from Trinidad and is
in a section which appears to be in
line for considerable development.
The North Coast railroad is now car
rying on much work in that portion
of Washington. Further down the
Columbia, but above Beverly, the
Messrs. Coffin have sold two sections
of land at $40 an acre. The deal was
closed at Wenatchee, and it is under
stood that the purchasers are We
natchee people. A year ago the
Messrs. Coffin offered this land at $11
an acre and found no takers. The
price they have now been offered, and
at which they have sold, indicates the
change which has taken place in that
section in the short time of II months.

BEAVER HATE ARE
BACK IN STYLE.
Military Capes are the Greatest Nov
city i'm Winter Fashions. Being
In Great Vogue.

The beaver hat and the Russian
turban are having a neck and neck
race for first place in popular favor
in winter millinery. Judging from
the hats seen in Seattle store win
dows and on Seattle heads. the beaver
is so far favorite. Every third wo-
man on the street has a beaver hat.
If it isn't a beaver, it has velvet or
fur crown. The beavers, in blacks.
browns and grays, even in greens.
have for the most part a wide brim
with a roll at one side. They do not
carry much trimming, and that for
the me st part feathers Sr wings.
Some are made into turbans A white
beaver turban which was effective
was trimmed only with a black
aigrette and jewelled button at the
left Of the front
! Brims Disappearing.
With the exception of the beavers,
the brims are disappearing: either
very narrow or rolled up close to the
crown. In the turban, the rolled
| brims are often faced with fur. while
one white felt hat had it's crown en-
tirely covered with a piece of black
fur.
A black hat which is attracting at
tention in a Seattle window has a
wreath of rose buds about the crown
but the real trimming is in the black
velvet which covers the crown. This
has band of delicately hued buds
patterned on it and at a distance they
stand out as dictinctly as the flowers
themselves
! The lack of trimming on the win
ter hats gives room FOR varied and
effective use of pretty hat pins. The
big jeweled sorts are especially good
agains black velvet.
On the whole the winter hats are
not nearly 50 large as the summer
ones, with decided tendency to the
close fitting turban.
Princess Lingers.
The princess gown still fingers in
the store windows and makes an oc-
| casional appearance on the street,
though in most instances it isn't the
most becoming style for the wearer.
| The suits have almost without ex-
ception three quarter length coats
lsemi-fitted. The one piece wool
dresses usually have buttons down
the front to break the long lne4
Sometimes they button on the side
with Il scallop for finishing.
| Pleated panels let into the skirt
seem a popular device, being the only
feasible way of getting fullness into
the skirt of the tight fitting and belt
less dress. Braid trimming on skirt
and waist is also seen. Green's graz
Ind shades of mauve and plum are
! the popular colors for winter suits.
Military Capes Appeal.
The novel feature of the season
seems to be the military cape. The
capes come in practically every color,
| though blue and black are more
common. They are long and abso-
lutely plain except for straps of the
same color Oh the shoulders to which
are fastened several large jet buttons.
Some of the regulation blue military
capes with red lining are seen. but
the black is more common.

news, set up a claim for damages
against c. w. Parker, II. S. Tyler and
Al. G.. Barnes, owners of the lion. He
alleges that on September IS, 1909, he
was the owner of the horse. which was
five years old, weighed 400 pounds
and had a value of $3.50. The defen-
dants, he says, were the owners of
cage of wild, dangerous and vicious
lions" These lions, it appears, were
carelessly allowed to escape from the
said cage and to attack, bite, scratch
and MAIN said horse, whereby said
horse is wholly lost to the plaintiff.
The defendants have failed to appear
in the case, so far as the record shows.

ACCEPTS RULES: WILL EXHIBIT
spokane Officials Explain IL Is too Late
TO Make Changes Requested by
Local Growers.

Yakima will make the best Of the
rules of the National Apple show and
exhibit in the carload contest. Two
officers of the Spokane show were as
sured of this fact at meeting of
growers and others interested at the
Com mercial club rooms Saturday
night. The Yakima people made
it clear that they were not at all
satisfied with the rules. especially
governing the carload contest.
but realized that it is too late
to make changes and accepted them.
E. F. c. Van DisseI. second vice
president and Rem H. Rice, secretary
and manager came down from Spo-
show There were present about 25
prominent people from the Yakima
valley interested in the subject.
Wanted Rules Changed.
Yakima's contention was that the
rules in the carload contest should
be changed so that two or more grow
ers could unite in making an exhibit.
The rules of the apple show provide
that every exhibit in the carload con-
test must be made up of a single varie-
ty of apples and must come from a
single grower. Yakima claims that
owing to the short crop in all sections
this year, it would be impossible for
a single grower to exhibit a creditable
car under the rules, if he could eX-
hibit one at ALL
Too Late, Say Officials.
Both Mr.. Rice and Mr.. Van Dissel
explained that it was too late now to
make the changes desired. They as
sured the growers that they would use
every care to see that no dishonest ex-
hibits are made in the carload contest,
and if any exhibits were found which
were made up from more than one or
chard, the exhibitor would be prose-
cuted for perjury. They said a sworn
affidavit would be required of every
exhibitor to the effect that he was the
grower of the apples exhibited or the
authorized agent of the grower
Mr.. Gilbert spoke at length on his
contention that the rules should be
changed and thought it a mistake that
the rules should shut out the small
grower in the carload contest He said
the small growers to make a credit
able exhibit of carload of single
veriety.
Other Growers Speak.
A number of other growers present
were called upon and most of them
upheld Mr. Gilbert but admitted it
was too late to make the desired
change.
President Miller, of the Commercial
club, suggested that it would be a
good idea to have a committee from
the various districts meet at the apple
show this year and discuss the rules
and offer remedies if needed. Secre-
| tary Rice explained that meeting of
growers will be held during the show
| when this matter may be taken up.
Both Mr.. Rice and Mr.. Van Dissel
were highly pleased with the outcome
| of the meeting.
