side when the winners of regmental
honors come home again the latter part
Of this week for the state encampment
at Iowa City. GFinnell is proud of
the showing made by the company and
proud Of the individuals that have star
red in that record and will doubtless
make some efforts to show due appre-
citation.
In spite Of the continued hot and dry
weather. rarely if ever experienced to
so great length and degree al this sea
son of the year, the corn in this vicinity
is doing finely. holding a color and
growth that promises well for the flu
ture crop. Should rains come soon
there viii be no reason to fear for the
harvest. The growth In the past
month has been marvellous. The small
grain is almost entirely IN thes hook
and from all reports is heavy crop.
President Jesse L. Fellows. of the
Grinnell Automobile Association. has
just become owner Of new electric
auto costing some $4,000. which seems
TO do away with some Of the disadvan-
tages of the ordinary gasoline propell-
ing vehicles. II has the new nickel
iron battery. which can be conveniently
charged without the loss Of the current
already stored and will run 125 miles
without recharging. The speed is about
twenty five miles an hour.
Mr. H McIlrath, Of this city, is ex-
pected home some time this week from
an extended visiting tour of Eng la nd.
Scotland. and Wales, he having taken
steamer for home on the 23rd.
Mr. and Mrs. w. A. Hayden are again
al their home here after a two weeks
vacation spent in Michigan. where Mr.
HAYDEN attended the national conven-
ton Of the order OF the Elks at Detroit
Work at Athletic Park has been pro-
crossing quite rapidly and the grounds
viii soon be ready for fall work. The
reinforced concrete seven-foot posts
have been set all around the field and
projecting tubes from the top for the
stringing Of wires will make the woven
wire fence unclfmable. The wire is
on the grounds and will be in place
shortly The concrete grand stand is
practically complete. the cinder track
is about perfect. and the new Ward

tests.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. q
The great fall love dance of the
ApacheS has ended. Bo-si-keth.
daughter of Es-tee, selected her
lover and the festival is over.
The Apache love lance is per-
haps the most picturesque of the
remaining relics of the life of the
American aborigine. Its secrets are
enshrouded in a most intricate
maze of Apache legend, and
known only to the older members
of the tribe. These secrets have
been kept inviolate from time i'm
memorial. Hitherto even the par
phernalia of the dance has been
kept from the prying eye of the
inquisitive camera.
For years photographers have
attempted to get photographs of
this weird festival. The only re-
ward they have reaped for their
pain has been a crop of smashed
cameras. This year, however, a
substantial bride, play upon the
ties of friendship and clever ruse
turned the trick. A photograph of
u bldNS was oSSuiS GU III Tic WOOuS,
half mile from the scene of the
dance. That of the dance itself
was taken by camera struggled
into the camp in a covered auto.
The back curtain of the auto was
raised, the camera focused, the
flash fired-and then the auto
sped to a place of safety before the
indians had a chance to destroy
the negative.
The Apaches are prisoners of
war on the Fort Sill military re-
serve. Soldiers stood guard about
them while the dance was in prog
ress. 80
With the appearance Of the first
red leaves of fall, Chief a-da-lu-
gle called his folks together and
announced that the time was come
for the fall love dance. Boost
keith, daughter of a wealthy
Apache, was selected as the maiden
in whose honor the dance should
be given, and invitations were
sent out to the neighboring Kio-
was and Comanches.
When the first feast day came
nearly thousand indians were
gathered.

forest about the camp sounds a
voice in a prayer of thanksgiving
to the Great Spirit for the blessing
vouchsafed the tribe. More chant
ing. Then the herald cries: "Ano-
coc-ho! Ano-coc-hoi"
Presently six of the most grot-
esque forms imaginable become
dimly visible as they approach
through the forest. A moment
and they trot in single file into the
circle about the big central fire
and the dance is on.
1t lasts till sun-up. There are
several Figures" with a different
song for each. In the final figure
members of all the tribes and even
white spectators join, dancing m
circles about the fire. The suitors
and the maid in whose honor the
dance is given, however, are S5e
only dancers who appear in the
opening figure, the "crown" dance,
which lasts three hours.
Between midnight and the ris-
ing of the Sunday morning sun
Boo-si-keth selected her lover
and the great fall dance ended
with a speech from the chief.

houses of the rich and killed
those who stand in their path.
Our own house is visited daily
by ten to fifteen men.
l hard hardly risen from sleep
the other day when Ilya Wassilye-
witch (Tolstoi's man-of- all-work)
announced:
Five tramps at the porch"
There is some money on the
table; give it to them"
Ilya Wassilyevitch gives out the
allotted five kopeeks for each man.
Almost an hour passes. 1 step out
on the porch A frightfully rag
ged little man, whose shoes are
literally falling from his feet, a
man with sickly face, with swol-
len, furtive eyes, bows low and
addresses me as "Hxcellency."
Did you not get your share?"
But, Your Excelency, what can
/ do with a 5-kopeck piece? Put
yourself in my place, Your Excel
lency. Have the goodness to take
a look, Your. Excelency; one
glance, SIR" He points to his rags.
