Charles Dean Jr., and Harry Gray were handling the reins on the two horses. Neither horses nor drivers sustained serious injuries
 In the opening heat Of the 2:05 trot, tiriver Childs took kilo Watts to the front and Kept her there despite 8 determined stretch drive by Cox, who was handling Jane the Great. In the second heat Kilo Watts again went into the lead but the Cox mare over hauled her in the stretch and won the third heat easily.
 The 2:o1 pace was a desperately fought race. Sanardo went to the front at the first quarter pole in the open ing heat and led all the way win ming in 2.O1 1-4.
 Tn the second heat Sanardo again went into the lead, but Hal Malone passed the little son of San Francis co half way down the stretch and Sir Koch also collared the winner of the first heat before the field reached the wire.

HALFBREED INDIAN HELPED
OPEN JAPAN TO THE WORLD

from that of his reflection of Jap
| anese life and character in the last
days of a dying era. There was a
! charm about him, a m%anliness, that
! won the esteem and affection of his
j~ailors. He was %quickwitted and ap-
preciative of the fine features of the
people among whom he had come.
He gained the confidence of his
Japanese associates, learned their
language and taught his own. Among
his pupils were the Japanese inter
prefers who met Commodore Perry
when he opened Japan and who car
ried on the negotiations between him
and the shotgun. Thus the halfbreed
child of old Oregon and Washington
was an instrument in bringing about
the meeting of the furthest west and
the remotest east.
Volume of Deep Interest.
1t was my privilege to read this
edition in manuscript, and it gives
me pleasure to state hat the notes
of the editors, their photography of
the subject, their biography of Mac
donald and their appendix of con-
temporary records double and more
than double the interest and value of
the original narrative. Mr.. Lewis
and Professor Murakami have made
a contribution of permanent worth to
the history of Japan and that OF the
Pacific northwest. No library, no
student of our northwestern history,
a afford to be without this work.
DR.. Griffis, the famous author Of
1.-The Mikado's Empire" values the
volume very highly.
The narrative by Macdonald is to
be published by the Eastern Wash
ington Historical society, but the
edition will be limited to 1000 copies
and will not be reprinted. Publica-
ton will be effected through sub
scription, the price being set at Sc
a. copy, the lowest amount possible,
now that the costs of publishing have
increased 100 per cen during the
past seven years.
Librarian Accepts Subscriptions.
Printing is to begin when two-l
thirds of the edition have been sub
for. Subscriptions should be
made to George w. Fuller, librarian
of the Spokane public library and
recording secretary of the Eastern
washington Historical society. Pay
ents in advance will expedite early
publication. r. r. N.

called B%arronets. Here we found a
scouting party of Indians had burned
the bridge and committed depreda-
tons farther down near the Nam
moth Springs. Major Gilbert arrived
at Henderson's ranch the day after
it was burned, and either through
fear or a species of sagacity unknown
to this command, refused to pursue

to our rear, where he now is render

There is nothing nowadays to be
read that Stakes the popular thirst
for of the west more than
stories of the early pioneer days.
Montana, along with other northwest
states, has contributed it's full share
of the romance of earlier days and
lives in history, famed, both as a
frontier region where miners and
bandits once held sway and where
Indian outrages and battles were of
frequent occurrence.
The story of the outbreak of the
Nez Perces Indians under Chief Jo-
seph in Idaho in 1877 has often been
written and the details are not un-
familiar to readers of early north
west history. Joseph and his band
struck terror to the hearts of the set
tiers of the Salmon river and Camas
Prairie regions and On several occa-
sions descended upon the settlers,
wiping out whole families and set

center of the valley was a dry creek
between high perpendicular banks
into which the hostiles drove all their
STOCK, leaving it in charge OF the
squaws and boys. There were scarce
ly five trees in the entire valley, and
only In the vicinity of the creek was
anything like a ~sheltering shrub
~sagebrush being very luxuriant there.
The warriors took possession of the
different heights almost Immediately
and by their courage and good shoot
ing baffled all the attempts of our
men to get to the other end of the
canyon, through which the stock was
being driven. When their ponies had
all passed safely through the pass
and were we'll on the way to Buffalo
Lakes, the Indian opposition to the
troops gradually ceased, and by sun
set all firing had stopped. In this
engagement and Skirmish, although
firing was at long range, three sol
diers were killed and nine wounded.
Six Nez Perces bodies we're found and
about a hundred of their horses were
driven off, principally by the Crows.
At 6 O'Clock next morning the pur-
suit was recommended and a running
fire kept up all day between Sturgis'
advance and Poker Joe's rearguard,
several Indians being killed and
about six hundred horses captured.
Howard arrived at the battle-ground
about four hours after Sturgis had
left, and, taking into consideration
the WORKOUT condition of his men
and animals, determined to keep

while he, with the rest of the COM
mand, should go around by the yell

In his dispatch to General Howard
he pluckily says he will keep up the
pursuit until his OF the hostiles'
horses give completely. This is our
present status, with Joseph trying
to form a junction with Sitting Bull,
and if successful in the effort, Gen
eral Howard will, of course, receive
orders to return to Oregon, as it is
not supposed that he is to drive all
the Indians who happen to be on the
war-path from the departments of
the different commanders.

Elements. On one occasion a detach-
ment of soldiers and two scouts were
surrounded and within fifteen min
utes of the attack not a man was
left to tell the tale.
General Howard had proceeded to
the Salmon river with troops on
learning of the outbreak, hoping to
cut off the hostiles before they had
had an opportunity of crossing the
river. Joseph is credited with hav-
ing been a general of marked ability
and in eIuding Howard and his for
ces, he proved his rare gift in stra-
tegy. He failed, however, to make a
clean march without some sever
brushes with the troops in which
both sides suffered.
Subsequently Joseph and his band
moved across the Clearwater and es-
capped into Montana, Howard in hot
pursuit. The story has often been
written of how Joseph was finally
captured in Montana. With Howard,
attached to his command as a scout,
was Colonel Frank J. Parker, miner,

pher and all-around good fellow and

The story of the Pacific Northwest,
otherwise known as the Oregon coun-
try, is one of fascinating interest and
deserves to be we'll known by every
inhabitant of British Columbia, Idaho
Oregon, Washington and western
Montana. The record of the regime
of the Northwest and Hudson's Bay
companies of Canada and of the
surge of the tide of American i'm
migration to the Pacific coast forms
an epic of the heroic age of Oregon
and Washington. 1t abounds with
heroes and heroines and with pic
turesque personalities.
In acquainting US with these
personages the historical associations
of these states render invaluable
service. But it may fairly be question
ed whether more valuable work has
ever peer done by n of them than
has lust been done by the Eastern
Washington Historical society in pub
fishing Ronald Macdonalds' own
story of his life.
Born at Astoria.
This Macdonald vas a son of a
Hudson's Bay trader and a daughter
of Chief Comcomly. He was born
at Astoria on February 8 1924 and
died at Toroda, Wash. on August
5, 1894. The spirit of adventure was
in him almost from the first, SO that
he could not settle down to business
in civilized Canada or even to ex-
istence in the then wild west of the
Oregon country. About the age of FL,
accordingly, he ran away to sea and
finally turned up as a seaman in the
whale-fishery of the Pacific during
1858. But from boyhood he had
been fascinated by the mysterious
empire of Japan, which for two
centuries had been a hermit among
nations jealousy sealed against west
ern civilization. He had 1onged to
enter the forbidden country and do
what he could to bring it into fellow
ship with Europe and the United
States. In 1848 his chance came. He
cast himself single-handed on the
Japanese coast and then enjoyed an
honorable captivity of nearly two
years in the mikado's kingdom.
Randal's own story of his Japa-
nese experiences constitutes the main
bulk of his account of his career.

point of view of his personality and
