THE MANTILLA.
A Spanish Woman Answers the Cues
fion. "Whv Do You Wear ItW

ton, why Do You wear itF
The writer once asked of Il well
known lady of the Spanish aristocracy
who was seated III the box of the pres
ident of a corrida In Madrid. why do
you wear lnantilla?" and the fair
duchess replied: Because we all wear
a n,antilla at bullfght or at any
truly Spanish function. 1t is the prop
er thing to do. and we do it,
A little later as | strolled among a
group of ahcionados | ventured to ask
a woman of the people over whose
head and shoulders was also thrown a
mantilla why all Spanish women. to
whatever class they belonged. wore
this national headgear. If it may be
called thus.
This woman was sitting In the open
air, and was thinking that a large
straw hat would have protected her
better from the burning rays Of the
sun and been quite rs picturesque
She replied in that droning, warm tone
so typical of the Spanish: We'll. hap
pened to have often thought of this.
and think the reason why we all
wear the mantilla Is because we Span
ish women are most careful about our
hair. We think the chief charms of a
woman are her eyes and her hair.
And. as you may see, we all have
splendid. thick, lustrous hair, and we
are supposed 70 have. many of us, fas-
cinating eyes. Now. why should we
hide our elaborately arranged hair un-
der hat and conceal our eyes In the
shade cast by the brim of hat?"
No doubt this woman was right. Pa

To see that the west does not get
the worst of it at the National Con-
seryation congress, scheduled for st.
Paul in September. the governors OF
nine states or their personal represent
atives, met last week at Salt Lake and
determined to pull together for a
strong western representation. Gov.
M. f. Hay of Washington. called the
conference and tho states represented
were Washington, Oregon, Idaho,
Utah, California, Nevada, Nebraska,
Colorado and Minnesota. The
Northwestern Idea" in conservation,
namely, that the states should have
the final say in the care of their nat
ural resources, and that eastern bu
r.aucrats shall not control western
lands, timber and water power, was
urged by Governor Hay. Governor
Norris OF Nebraska. sent represent
ative to the meeting and advanced the
opinion that the ST.. Paul convention
would be in the hands of oonserva-
tion enthusiasts of the more radical
type, and that the "Northwestern
Idea" would get little consideration.
However, the assembled governors.
secretaries of state and Others decided
to present al united front on any
points which the west desired 10 make
fight for, and the st. Paul gather
ing is liable to see some bitter con-
fliots between conservationists with
: conflicting ideas.

THE FIRST WINDMILLS.
Could Work Only When the Wind
Blew From a Certain Point.

Blew From Certain Point.
Windmills are said to have been in
troduced into England by the Knights
Of st. John, who observed them In use
among the Saracens In the Crusades,
but how long they had been In ex-
istence before this 1t is not possible to
ascertain. A water mill was built in
Bohemia in the year 719, for an old
chronicler mentions 1t, going on to say
that before that time all the mills in
Bohemia were windmills set upon the
summit of hills"
For hundreds Of years windmills
were among the most important ad-
juncts of industry. yet they hardly
changed from the rude and primitive
design of earliest days. They were
fixed In one position, and so could only
be worked when the wind blew from
certain quarter, while the four sails
boasted no Stats or checking apparatus
of any kind. which must have been
most inconvenient at times.
The first idea Of arranging mill SO
| that 1t could be worked "whene'er the
wind did blow" was that of lettering
an ordinary mill in the middle OF a
pond by means of ropes. When the
wind shifted the ropes were loosed
and the mill dragged around until the
sails were caught by the wind. and II
was then again tethered as before.
Later Oh great pole, which was
worked on the principle of turntable
was affixed to the mill. Not until 1901
did Holland. the land of windmills
introduce a movable dome carrying
the sail axle. The dome ran on rollers
and was shifted around by means o.
the pole mentioned above. These an
cient mills were often of massive build
being made of brick or stone, and late
entirely of wood.-London Globe.

1t has been nearly decade since
the last shipment of Willamette Valley
wheat was sent foreign, but the possi-
bilities of the valley as grain grow
ing region are as great as ever. Most
of the valley farmers, says the Greg
oman. are reaping greater profits
from dairying and fruit growing
than they are getting out of grain.
but the valley will this year produce
more wheat than is needed for home
consumption, and will have a large
surplus Of other grains. A yield Of 9s
bushels per acre on ten acre field Of
oats near Hillsboro with winter whea
running from 80 to 35 bushels pei
acre. is pretty good evidence tha
there are still good grain growing
properties in the soil, although it il
much more valuable for other pur
poses. Even the Walla Walla country
the successor of the Willamette val
ley in the export wheat trade, is rap
idly drifting into fruit and vegetable
growing and dairying. The returns
are so much greater than those which
are possible from grain that even six
ty-bushel wheat yields would no
tempt the farmers to return to th
cereal production.

FIRST LOSS FOR MUNICIPAL
INSURANCE CORPORATION.
Fire at Fourth Precinct Station
Hits Concern.

Established three years ago, the
Municipal Insurance Corporation now
faces the payment of its first fire loss,
the burning of the Fourth Precinct
barns on Monday night bringing about
this state of affairs. The corporation,
which is governed by the Municipal IN
surance Fund Commission, carried $40,-
600 on the Fourth Precinct station
buildings IN $4,000 on the horses.
Albert T. Guenther, city treasurer,
and member of the commission, stated
that 1900 would be paid as a result of
the fire and the loss incurred. All city
buildings, with the exception of the
City Hall, are insured by this corpora
ton. On the latter building the in
surance policies total more than $1,000
900 and are consequently tool large for
the municipal corporation to handle.
The municipal fund now amounts to
S199, 900 and an agreement has teen
reached whereby, when the total
reaches $500, 900, premiums will be de
creased.
The Insurance Fund Commission is
composed of Harry J. Bachelor, city
comptroller, president; Albert T.
Guenther, city treasurer, treasurer, and
Alderman Michael MCGOWAN. Harry
Parsons is secretary.
