The following is an extract from
the San Francisco Examinr of May
22nd: ,..t ..
The contractors for the con-
struction of the Pullman shops at
Richmond are making rapid pro-,
gress, and over hundred men are
now employed on the cement work
for the foundations of the build
ings. The working force will be
increased from time to time as the
work of construction progresses,
and it is expected that 500 men
will soon be employed upon the
extensive plant which the company
is rushing to completion. The
first order for lumber for con-
struction purposes has been given
out to the dealers and calls for a
million feet of various dimensions.
The impulse given to business in
the vicinity of the plant by the
erection of the shops is plainly
evident, and realty brokers report
many sales during the last week.
In several instances the purchasers
declared their intention of erecting
buildings and establishing them
selves in business.
The Southern Pacific will soon
install its local service between
Richmond and Oakland and San
Francisco, and according to the in
formation given out, trains will
run every twenty minutes during
the early forenoon and late. after
noon, and during the middle of the
day either forty-minute or hourly
service will be given.

a Liverpool woman whose coach

at 100000. The Bulletin considers
that forecast conservative, but it
will mean that Nevada will have
been the only State in the Union to
more than double its inhabitants

STRANGE BATHS OF
The CROW INDIANS

A strange sight was witnessed a
short time ago on the Crow reser-
walton by Assistant District Attorney
c. S. Ford of Helena, Montana,
says the Record, while at the agency
to represent the government at the
preliminary hearing of two Indians.
Happening to wander down to
the Little Big Horn, not far from
the agency, he observed a cluster
of willow tepees covered with
blankets. Grunts and groanings
proceeded from within.
Suddenly the blankets over the
entrance were thrown back and
from one tepee out rushed three
bucks, and from another three
squaws, nude. .
The perspiration rolled from
them in "purling streams" to use
Mr.. Ford's enigmatic expression.
The Indians headed directly for
the bank of the Little Big Horn,
but they didn't stop. There was
a CLINT of bronze in the air, fol-
lowed by flop and a loud splash,
as six Crow Indians dived into the
waters fthe Big Horn. They wal
lowed and swan about like sportive
porpoises in the chilling waters,
not seeming to mind bit the 30
degree temperature.
Inquiry revealed that from time
immemorial it has been the custom
among the Crows to take a Turkish
bath in the spring, following it with
an immersion in running stream.
They do this Fer the same reason
that many whites take sarsaparilla.
The Turkish bath houses of the
Grows lare constructed with les
pecial care. Long willow withes
are closely woven together into
the shape of a tepee. Then blankets
and skins are drawn over this
fran ework.
1t is simple matter to generate
the steam. Large round boulders
are laid out on the ground and a
roaring fire built over them. When
they have been thoroughly heated
they are carried into the bath tcpee.
The patient goes in and takes several
pals of water. The entrance is
carefully closed, and water poured
on the heated stones, generating
steam. 7'ah'sf"

HlWAIrs SPLENDID RECORD.

II anyone doubts the progress OF
Hawaii. he should read the figures
given In the last issue OF the statis-
teal summary Of commerce between
Hawaii and the mainland, issued by
the Department of Commerce and
Labor.
The publication Just come to hand
gives the figures for the eleven
months ending with November.
1903.
The total value OF our shipments
Of merchandise to the mainland dur
ing those eleven months was s40,-
'77S,5S3.
During the same period we bought
merchandise from the mainland
valued lat S17.687.956. Our ship
ments for the same period in 1908
were valued at S14.464,645.
The figures show that whereas our
shipments to the mainland for the
period under consideration dropped
on some 100000 as compared with
1908. our purchases from the main
land increased over three millions
Of dollars.
They can hardly accuse Hawaii OF
not sharing its prosperity literally
with all parts Of the United States OF
America.

BRITISH POLITICS and What

Only the Pharisee is happy that

wall, especially in politics.
But we do have considerable pol.
