The photograph shows the belle
of the interesting Samoan village at
the Panama-Pacific International Ex-
position at San Francisco. The struc-
lures in this village, comprising the
native matched huts of the Samoan
pr as they were formerly called, the
Navigator islands, were brought in
tact from the native villages and are
absolutely faithful in all their fea-
lures. There are many native fam
lilies living in the village who for
the edification of visitors perform the
aquatic feats in which the islanders
excel, and dance the rhythmic native
dances. The life Of the people OF the
Pacific ocean is wonderfully illus
trated at the Exposition, and OF all
the races none are more interesting
than the Samoans who exhibit many
traces of Aryan descent. No EXPOSE
ton visitor should fail to see these
unique tribesDeoDla

Most Rapid Photographs Ever Taken.
The most remarkable set of speed
photographs ever taken are a part OF
the war departments exhibit in Ma
chinery Hall at the Panama-Pacific In
ternational Exposition, San Francisco.
They are pictures Of a shell from a IL
inch coast defense gun in flight, the
set including the various phases OF
the flight beginning just as the great
projectile pokes its nose out of the
muzzle of the gun.
The pictures were taken with a
lens having an exposure period or
one five-thousandth of second, this
being the fastest shutter ever manu-
featured. The exposure at the proper
time in the flight of the projectile
was made by breaking an electric cir
cult in a wire stretched across the
trajectory at the desired point and
connecting with the shutter.
One picture shows the shell half
way out OF the muzzle before any
smoke and gas has escaped. Another
was taken when the shell was two
feet from the muZZle but hidden by a
heavy ring of smoke. A third shows
the shell in flight hundred feet from
the muzzle The photographs are so
perfect and the exposure SO rapid that
scarcely any blur is perceptible. They
were taken at Fortress Monroe, Va, I'M
der the direction of Capt. f. j.
Behl of the coast artillery corps and
head of the department of enlisted
specialists at the Coast Artillery
school at Fortress Monroe.

Some Marvellous Exhibits
at the Panama. Pacific
international Exposition
Exhibits in Agricultural Palace at the
Panama-Pacific international Expo
sition Show Caterpillar Gaining
Favor over Lug-wheeIer Trac-
tors in Farm Machinery

Favor Over Lug-wheeler Trac-
tors in Farm Machinery.
An observer in the Agriculture Pal
ace at the Panama-Pacific Interna.
tional Exposition at San Francisco
cannot help noticing, in the display of
agricultural power machinery, the al,
most complete supersedence of the
new design of power tractor, known as
the caterpillar, over the cumbersome,
unstable, high-wheeled engine of a
few years ago. There are few of the
old models on exhibition, while the
caterpillar principle has been applied
to almost every type of engine for ag'
ricultural purposes.
The caterpillar proper is heavy
sheet metal chain, varying in width
from ten inches to two feet according
to the weight of the engine, which
passes around two heavy sprocket
wheels like a belt. These wheels re-
vOlving, pass the chain about them,
the lower part moving backward, with
the weight of the engine resting on
the broad surface of the chain be-
tween the two sprockets.
An engine of this type can be op'
Grated on ground soft enough to mire
an ordinary farm wagon.

Duplicate of the Roosevelt African
Shotqun.


Shotgun.
A duplicate of the shotgun which
Col. Theodore Roosevelt took with him
on his African trip, gun constructed
expressly for him by an American
armorer, is on display at the manufac-
turers exhibit in the Manufacturer
Palace at the Panama-Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition, San Francisco. The
gun cost it's illustrious owner $3.50,
and it's beautiful design, graceful
lines and wonderful inlay work would
justify the expenditure to any lover
of fine pieces. The stock is elabo-
rately hand carved, the barrels and
lock are hand engraved, and the lock
is inlaid with a hunting scene in gold.
The barrels are of the finest Krupp
steel. Before starting on the trip the
eX-president wrote to the makers: Il
really think it is the most beautiful
gun I have ever seen. l am almost
ashamed to take it to Africa and sub
ject it to the rough treatment it will
receive"

In a group in this Palace are dis

Radium Used to Promote Plant
Growth.

Some of the remarkable properties
of radium are being demonstrated by
an exhibitor in the Liberal Arts build
ing at the Panama-Pacific Information.
al Exposition, San Francisco, in con.
nection with a new invention making
possible the radiofying of water for
medicinal purposes.
Demonstrating the power of this
mineral promoting metabolism a num-
Der of young plants, some existing
with and some without the aid of ra-
dunn, are shown. Those in the radio
active soils are seen to be growing
much more rapidly than those in COM
mon SOIL and to have a more healthy
appearance.
This inventor has found a process
of impregnating terra Gotta bricks
with notwithstanding minerals, and
these small bricks placed in water are
said to give it remarkable curative
properties. The porous bricks last al
most indefinitely, losing only half their
potency, it is estimated, in 1900 years.
Since the discovery of this mineral it
has been found that many celebrated
waters, as Carlsbad and Baden Baden,
owe their health-giving properties to ra-
dunn The inventor claims that his
process produces in ordinary waters
the qualities of these famous springs.
The radium ore used in the manu-
facture of radioactive terra Gotta
is known as carnotite, a formation
found mainly in Colorado and Utah,
and now producing three-fourths of
the worlds radium. The European
mineral, known as pitchblende, from
which the famous European springs
are impregnated, is also displayed.

Pearl Culture a New Industry.

Pearl Culture a New Industry.
Among the interesting exhibits or
the Japanese in the Manufacturers
Palace at the Panama-Racific Interna-
tional Exposition is a demonstration
of the methods and results of pearl
cultivation in the far East. The dis
plays of this cultivated product, show
ing hundreds of pearls which until
pearl culture was placed on a COM
mercial basis a few years ago would
have been the possessions of royalty,
will delight any lover of beautiful
gems, and the methods of production
will prove interesting to any OBJ
server. Though pearl culture has be-
come thriving industry in Japan, at
tempts to reproduce it in other parts
Of the world have yielded but meager
results.
The successful method of propaga-
ton was evolved by the Japanese sci
enlist Kokichi Mikimoto, who discov-
cred a species of oyster which pro-
duced the pearl on the surface of the
shell. Though the finding of the oys-
tiers and inserting the nuclei, then
waiting for the pearl to grow to a
commercial size may seem a simple
process, the fact that it has not re-
duced the price of the gems, even to,
that of the most expensive limitations,
shows that it is beset with many diff
culties.

That Bryan County nov has the
best roads in Oklahoma on the Ok

the expressed opinion OF touring par
ties that have stopped in Durznt in

Since Mr.. Early was made presi-
dent, he has put his soul into the
