BARBAROUS MODES Of
PUNISHMENT SURVIVE
TALES OF HORRIBLE
CRUELTY IN MORROCO
Sultan Throws Pretcnder to Lions Be-
cause Latter Executed His Captives
With Revolving Torture--Shot
Them From Cannon, and Forced
Them TO Cut own Flesh,

London.-The good old days when
men were thrown to lions and traitors
blown from the mouths of cannon
have not passed. 1t will come as
shock to many good people when they
learn that such tragedies are being
enacted today, but such is the fact.
Reliable reports of the execution OF
Blu Hamara. the captured Pretender
to the throne Of Morocco, at the hands
of Sultan Mulai Hofid, have reached
London. and depict a scene quite as
horrible as any witnessed in the
worlds bloody history.
Despite the protests of the consuls,
the Pretender was thrown to the lions
This was not done, however, until
the sultan had asked Blu Hamara in
what manner he had dealt with those
4 he had taken as prisoners. The Pre-
tender refused to answer but some
OF his captured followers were forced
to confess.
They said that he usually blew his
prisoners from the mouths of guns or
had their backs covered with native
.oap and then caused them to be
threshed with chains so that strips of
flesh were torn off; or would sit op-
posite pinloned prisoner and cut
pieces from his limbs transfix them
on skewer. grill them over a fire
! and force the victim to eat his own
flesh. or would mutilate his captives in
70 describe
Then the sultan said to the Preten-
der. "Pu Hamara, you are no man,
but beast. and as such will deal
with YOU" He then ordered the
prisoner to be thrown to the lions.
Chains were put upon his feet and
he was taken out while the Sultan
and his Court retired to the windows
overlooking a garden where three
starved lions were loose. The Pre-
tender was pushed through the gate
and the gate shut,
The big lioness saw him first and
rushed at him. He shrieking, ran to
an orange tree near by, and in his
fear nearly got up it. But with one
blow the animal threw him to the
bround and tore off his left arm.
Immediately he appeared to faint.
At once a live sheep was thrown
over the wall to attract the infuriated
lioness.
Then the hajeb (the Sultan's facto-
tum) and soldier ran across to the
injured man and drove a curved knife
dozen times into his breast. Tney
retired hastily, after which the other
lions came up and threw the body
about as a cat does that of mouse.

DIRECTOR OF RECLAMATION
SERVICE MAKES ADDRESS
Thinks Irrigated and Dry Tracts
Should BE Compliments OF Each
Other in Cycle of Opportunity
One for Diversified, Other for
Standard Crops.

Director Newell, Of the United
States reclamation service, discussed
the utilization OF dry farming and ir-
rigation in methods of moisture con-
servation at the Dry Farming Con-
gress yesterday He said in part:
"The ideal combination Of condi-
tlons leading to success in farming IN
the arid and semi-arid west is found
where 1t Is possible to have n rela-
lively small tract of well irrigated
land adjacent to a large area OF dry
farming land. This permits OF the
widest diversity of occupation and the
rounding out Of an establishment
practically complete in itself. The ir-
rigated land is capable Of producing
each year one or more good crops
which can be counted on with almost
mathematical precision. When the
climate is favorable. fruit trees, ber-
rles, bushes and garden vegetables
flourish, and shade trees or flowers
are possible for beautifying of the
home.
"On the adjacent dry farming land,
with ordinary skill and In average
years. the grains or other standard
field crops can be produced. If In
exceptionally dry seasons or by rea-
SON OF hot winds these crops are not
successful. the irrigated land tides
over temporary depressions until
there comes n favorable year when
the crops will repay the labor lost
during the lean years. The dry
farming land also serves useful
purpose from time 10 time for a
home range for the cattle, and II the
farm extends up into the foothills to
the summer grazing lands the cycle
OF opportunity is complete.
"From the irrigated area there can
always be had green fodder for the
cattle and hay can be cut for feed
ing during severe winters. This ideal
ARRANGEMENT has been possible OF
realization in n few instances on rec
lamatlon projects where the farms
could be arranged in such manner
that 40 acres or more lie under a
canal with the remainder extending
above the ditch. Attempts have been
made also to secure legislation by
which the owner Of 40 or so acres
within the irrigated tract could OBJ
tain title to a large area Of dry land
near the project The suggestion has
also been considered Of endeavoring
to segrerato the dry lands which sur
round the reclamation project max
ing these available for the use OF the
entire community as general graz,
ing ground or home range to be cared
for by the water users association

TWO NEW COURT HOUSES
The Oakville Cruiser Voices the SEN
timent Of Taxpayers in the
Eastern End.

Chehalis county belongs to us all.
Moclips and Oakville are parts of
it as much as MontesanO, and Elma.
Aberdeen or Hoquiam, does not have
to have the county seat; at the pro-
per time, and in the lawful way let
the people say where it shall remain,
Or go.
Until then let us not go to the ex-
pense of building two court houses
TWELVE miles apart, neither of which
would be at the county seat of the
of $25O,O00 of public moneys at this
time for two court houses would not
bind or even influence the people of
coming and of new events. Elma and
Hoquiam would each have a county
seat, neither of them court house.
1t is better to wait little longer,
remain one county, as it we are now,
and let the people Of the county say
where to build the seat of govern
ment, then put the money into
court house that will meet the pub
lie wants of a half century to come.
100000 would not be too much to
pay for a good court house built at
the right time and in the right place.
The Harbor is going to have one
great commercial sea port city, if
that city should be Hoquiam, then it
will absorb Aberdeen, as Portland
did Albina with it's Russell street.
If vice versa, then Hoquiam will
be the absorbed and will become a
part of Aberdeen, which will be the
Liverpool Of the Pacific. Who will
not be proud of great city on the
Harbor?
County lines will not circumscribe
its greatness, neither will state lines,
four great railroad companies have
chosen it as their sea terminus where
the cars meet the ships aid the grain
of the Inland Empire will go for re-
shipment to the Orient. Let us be
one people and great community.

THE DEFAULTING TREASURER
Albert Meyer Decamps With Funds
Of Gloss Laundry and Long
shoremen's Union,

An examination of the books of
the Gloss Steam Laundry and the
Longshoremen's Union reveals the
fact that Albert Meyer, who
was treasurer Of both concerns, and
who disappeared last Tuesday, was
about 5000 short with the laundry
and $1,000 of the sick and accident
fund of the union is missing.
In the letter left by Meyers, he
concluded with the words, This is
the end" as if to convey the idea of
suicide, but those acquainted with
him scout at this theory and be-
lieve he simply got to the end of
his string and left for pastures new.
Two rewards of 500 each have
been offered for his capture, and
Sheriff Payette is sparing no efforts
to locate him.
