Highland Live Stock Show
Fourth Effort a Success

The 1913 exhibition of the Il. l..
S. A. is now history, and, like the
previous efforts, is regarded as a
success.
Weather conditions were favor
able, and the attendance fully up
to expectations. That Of the first
day was estimated at 800; second
day close 5000, and last approx
mately sane as first.
There was but little real disorder
only two arrests being made.
Better provision was made this
year to feed and shelter visitors,
and it is safe to assume that the
inner man was amply satisfied.
1t is needless to say that the Re-
corder event to the show" 1t is
a great big time that comes but
once a year in the county, The
issue of the Recorder is day late
and the local news meager.
Next week list of awards and
prize winners will be given.

FROM THE LAND OF NEE PERCES.
(BY MISS LULA S. WALLACE)
Continued from last week.

continued rom laSI week.
We went outside and sat for over
TWO hours waiting for the dance
and parade. Just before we had
to 90 an Indian rode out from be-
hind his tent in full regalia. His
face was painted yellow, with red
and white streaks across his fore
aead and down his cheeks. He
wore deep purple shirt, buckskin
trousers, fitting tightly, fringed on
the outer seam, buckskin leggings,
beaded all over with blue and white
beads in beautiful design, gaun-
tlet gloves beaded to the elbows,
MS hair oiled and braided in two
paits which hung below his waist
in front. His saddle blanket was
green felt beaded in blue and white
His saddle was of white buckskin,
made like pack saddle, with a.
nigh horn in front and in the rear.
Across the back of the horse, i'm
nediately back of the saddle was,
what I would call a scarf of white
ouckskin, eight inches wide, and
which extended down on the sides
of the horse to within six inches of
the ground The end of ills for
over a foot was slashed into fringe.
Just then we were Joined by some
friends, one of them who has lived
at Lapwai for twelve years. One
of the Indians came up; so, OF
course, we went outside. On our
way out we passed a tent where
there were eight or nine Indians,
beating large skin drum that al
most filled the tent. They were
sitting fiat on the ground, beating
it with drumsticks wrapped with
cotton cloth. One of them, big
black f, low, was the lea Ter. As
they beat, they chanted the strans-
est, wierdest chant ever heard.
Sometimes it sounded like bunch
of little pups squealing, then it rose
to a shrek, and then sank to SOL
emn Groom, over and over Eagain.
1t cannot be described, it must be
heard to know WHAT is like. There
were a lot of Indians lying on the
ground tehind he SINCE rs. Every
noW and than OF g of them would
get up and dance around. 1t looked
me like they were Initiating
some animal, as they danced.
The war dance did not take place
for two nights after the 4th; so it
was well we did notspend the night
in Lapwai, as we had talked of do
ing, for we should have had our
labor for our pains.
At these dances the Indians work
themselves up to a great pitch of
enthusiasm; they will dance so long
and violently after they are once
around; that frequently they fall to
the ground in exhaustion or unc n
seriousness. At times they work
themselves into such a frenzy that
they throw off all their clothing but
their breechclouts and noccasins
This is toward the winding up Of
their dances.
They have many religious and
tribal dances that they dance on
these occasions- the Sun dance, i
religious dance; the Corn or HaI-
vest dance, u tribal dance etc, arr
few Of the many dances that Il ely
give They remain as long as f e
provisions last, and it ends wi b a
big feast. Besides the dances they
Ihivo horse races, games Of chance.
the Indians are great gamblers, ell
on the races, sometimes a Indian
will bet all he has on favorite in
