MAYOR RUST DELVING IN INDIAN MYTPOLOGY Many Legends and Traditions of Aborigine—Mayor Investigates the Totem Pole. Mayor Rust writes from Skagway that his party has reached that port safely and all are enjoying themselves to the limit. The Mayor has been captivated by stories of Indian mythology, and has encountered many legends and traditions that are possessed of romantic charm. According to the story told the Mayor at Skagway, Indian mythology relates that in the beginning there was nothing but sky and water, in the sky a moon. A bird came out of the moon with a small moon or ring in its mouth. On coming to the water it got on the back of a large fish. There was no earth. The fish got into shallow water and the bird dropped the ring from its bill, when a large toad came and swallowed the ring. The toad soon became impregnated, then a child was born from the toad; it was a girl and the bird took it to feed, and by the time it came to maturity, there sprung up out of the waters a beach with thick woods, where the bird left the girl on the beach and went into the woods to seek food for it; then a bear came out of the woods and went to the girl and hugged her, and from her the first man was born. This is the ancient account or legend of the creation by the Indians, and consequently they consider themselves descended from the bird, fish, toad and bear. So each family takes one of these for their crest. There are, or were, four large and important tribes in Alaska, the names of which, in the Tsimshean language are Kis-poot-wadda, by far the most numerous hereabout, have for symbols hearty welcome and will be received as a brother and treated and trusted as such. These relations tend to foster peace and discourage wars, and though the tribes in Alaska are civilized, or nearly so, they retain their crest distinctions. ITEMS ABOUT IRRIGATION FROM NATIONAL CAPITAL East Awakening to Great Possibilities of Development of Arid West by Government Work in Progress. [CONTRIBUTED TO THE GAZETTE.] WASHINGTON, D. C., July 21. — The occasional great floods of the waters of the Missouri and the Mississippi valleys always direct attention to the possibility of their prevention by the construction of irrigation reservoirs. All the west, in fact the whole nation is interested in the plan to have the government build a system of storage reservoirs near the head waters of streams to mitigate floods and likewise to reclaim desert land. As the government controls rivers, it could appropriately undertake the diversion of superfluous water into reservoirs, where it could be later used for irrigation. Moreover the great area of irrigated desert would act as a secondary reservoir. Fancy a single irrigation application of water to ten or twenty million acres along the watershed of the Missouri and its tributaries. This single operation would absorb the flood of a great river. The nation is certainly interested in the undertaking of such work which would probably end the floods that cause such loss of life and property. The water which now swells the Missouri and its tributaries and at times the Mississippi to undue proportions would be diverted for use in transforming deserts into gardens. GREATEST VARIETY OF PRODUCTS. Showing California at the St. Louis Exposition—State Excels In Exhibits. [Correspondence of the Gazette.] ST. LOUIS, July 21—California’s exhibit at the World’s Fair has some characteristics different from that made by any other state, which gives it an attraction that others cannot possess. It occupies more space than the exhibits of any other state, barring possibly that of Missouri; it shows a greater variety of natural products than any other state or country, and its installation is so constructed that the products form the embellishments. In size and quality the articles it shows in comparison with those of the same class from other parts of the world are generally superior. These features easily put California first in interest of all the states of the union. In the Palace of Agriculture, a building that covers twenty acres of ground, California occupies 24,342 square feet, exclusive of aisles. Here the counties have made their displays, and by the great variety and excellent character of their products they illustrate how general is the riciness that is peculiar to California diffused over the state. Butte and San Diego, more than six hundred miles apart north and south, show practically the same products, while displays from the counties intervening demonstrate the vastness of the state’s area that is equally suited to the vine and the fig, the olive and the orange, the pomegranate and the pomelo. In the exhibits samples at least of every product can be found of which other states can boast, and these are supplemented by many products which on this continent, at least, are peculiar only to California. where the bird left the girl on the beach and went into the woods to seek food for it; then a bear came out of the woods and went to the girl and hugged her, and from her the first man was born. This is the ancient account or legend of the creation by the Indians, and consequently they consider themselves descended from the bird, fish, toad and bear. So each family takes one of these for their crest. There are, or were, four large and important tribes in Alaska, the names of which, in the Tsimshean language are Kis-poot-wadda, by far the most numerous hereabout, have for symbols the fin-back whale in the sea, the grizzly bear on land, the grouse in the air, and the sun and stars. The next clan, known as the Canadda, have for symbols the frog, the raven, the star fish and the bullhead. The Lacheboo, another clan, had the heron and the grizzly bear for totems. Lacksbleak, families had the eagle, beaver and halibut. These creatures, however, are only regarded as the visible representatives of the powerful and mystical beings or genii of Indian mythology, and as all of one group are said to be of the same kindred so all the members of the same class, whose heraldic symbols are the same, are counted as blood relations, and strange to say, this relationship holds good should the persons belong to different or even hostile tribes or speak a different language, or be located thousands of miles apart, and this relationship is perpetuated in the face of obliterating circumstances. The Indians point back to a remote age when their ancestors lived in a beautiful land, where, in a mysterious manner, the mythical creatures, whose symbols they retain, revealed themselves to the heads of the families of that day. They relate the traditional story of an overwhelming flood which came and submerged the good land and spread death and destruction all around. Those of the ancients who escaped in canoes were drifted about and scattered in every direction on the face of the waters, and where they found themselves after the flood had subsided, there they located and staked out their pre-emption claims and formed new tribal associations. Thus it was that persons related by blood became widely severed from each other. Nevertheless they retained and clung to the symbols which had distinguished them and their respective families before the flood. Hence the crests have continued to mark the offspring of the original founders of each family. It may interest our readers to know what practical uses the natives apply their crests. First—Crests subdivide the tribes into social clans, and a union of crests is a closer bond than a tribal union. Second—It is the ambition of all leading members of each clan in the several tribes to represent their rank by carving or painting their heraldic symbols on all their belongings, not omitting their household utensils, and on the death of the head of a family a totem pole was erected in front of his house by his successor, on which is carved or painted more or less elaborate. Moreover the great area of California desert would act as a secondary reservoir. Fancy a single irrigation of application of water to ten or twenty million acres along the watershed of the Missouri and its tributaries. This single operation would absorb the flood of a great river. The nation is certainly interested in the undertaking of such work which would probably end if floods that cause such loss of life and property. The water which now swells the Missouri and its tributaries and at times the Mississippi would undue proportions would be diverted for use in transforming deserts into gardens. At the same time the government could depend on making the work pay for itself. Fifteen years of work of exploration, survey and investigation by the engineers of the government at an expenditure of a million and a half dollars show that the Great American desert can largely be brought under cultivation by irrigation systems and made to support a population probably as great as that of the whole country to-day. Not only this, but it will supply opportunity for the working of the thousands of ranges of mountains in that vast region for their stupendous stores of precious metals and useful minerals that have merely been guessed at as yet. The throbbing East, with its manufactories of necessities of all kinds, would profit no less than the West by opening up of these lands. And all of them, experience shows indubitably, ate so rich, when cultivated intelligently with adequate water supplies, that their settlers would be able to pay the entire cost of the most extensive irrigation systems in very few years and never be distressed in consequence. It was a fortunate day for the nation when the late Major John W. Powell, recognizing the vast water, and mineral and land resources of the Rocky mountain region, insisted upon adequate government appropriations for irrigation surveys preliminary to the enactment of the national irrigation law, which he foresaw certain to come. The result is that the geological survey is today a splendidly equipped organization, carrying forward with rapidity the great conquest of the desert. GUY E. MITCHELL. NO PITTY SHOWN "For years fate was after me continually," writes F. A. Gullege, Verbena, Ala. "I had a terrible case of piles, causing 24 tumors. When all failed Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured me. Equally good for burns and all aches and pains. Only 25c at W. B. Hutchinson's drug store." Civil Service Commission The United States civil service commission announces that examinations will be held in Los Angeles on September 22. Examinations will be for the following positions: Economic and statistical geologist and paleontologist, Philippine service, salary $2000 to $2250; age limit 18 to 40 years. This examination will be held August 24. Butte and San Diego, more than six hundred miles apart north and south, show practically the same products, while displays from the counties intervening demonstrate the vastness of the state's area that is equally suited to the vine and the fig; the olive and orange; the pomegranate and the pomelo. In the exhibits samples at least of every product can be found of which other states can boast, and these are supplemented by many products which on this continent, at least, are peculiar only to California. Those in charge of the county exhibits are always on hand, ready to demonstrate to enquiring visitors the claims of the locations which they present, and visitors are always welcome. In addition to the strong and instructive county exhibits made by California in the Palace of Agriculture, there are a number of state features that are striking by reason of their distinctive character, their magnitude and the beautiful manner in which they are installed. Everybody admits at once that the display of dried fruits, made by California in this department, is not only the largest and finest show in that line made at this World's Exposition, but old exposition experts pronounce it the greatest exhibit of the kind ever seen on earth. The California wine display is even more beautiful and more extensive and more attractive by comparison with others in the same line than the exhibit of dried fruit. It certainly is handsomest single feature in the Agricultural Department, and by many is considered one of the handsomest exhibits in the entire exposition. The state feature of canned fruits, like that of dried product, is imposing, beautiful and attractive. The same is true of the state feature of processed vegetables, of forage plants and fibers, or seeds, cereals and soils, of strained and comb honey, of canned fish and of condiments and relishes. All show up strong, and most of them stronger than similar displays made by any other state or country. It was this aggregate of varied products, flanked and re-enforced by the splendid exhibits on the counties, all beautifully and attractively installed, that prompted Hon. F. J. V. Skiff, the eminent director of exhibits and an admitted expert to declare in one of his recent addresses that California's aggregate exhibit in the Agricultural Department was not only the finest in its line at this exhibition, but by far the best display of similar products ever seen at any exhibition in the world. The same excellence that characterizes California in the Agricultural Department is equally conspicuous in this Department of Horticulture. By comparison withthe exhibits made by other states in horticulturethe display fromthe Golden State is farin lead.Here California has 8,500 feetof floor spaceand about 3,000 feetof wallspace,and onthisallartistically arrangedare stands loadedwith shining jarsofall varietiesofthebest fruit，processedbythebestmethod It may interest our readers to know to what practical uses the natives apply their crests. First—Crests subdivide the tribes into social clans, and a union of crests is a closer bond than a tribal union. Second—It is the ambition of all leading members of each clan in the several tribes to represent their rank by carving or painting their heraldic symbols on all their belongings, not omitting their household utensils, and on the death of the head of a family a totem pole was erected in front of his house by his successor, on which is carved or painted more or less elaborately, the symbolic creatures of his clan. Third—The crests define the bonds of consanguinity and persons having the same crests are forbidden to intermarry; that is a frog cannot marry a frog, nor a whale a whale, but a frog may marry a wolf and a whale an eagel. Fourth—All the children take the mother's crest and are incorporated as members of the mother's family, nor do they designate or regard their father's family as their relations, and therefore an Indian's heir or successor is not his own son, but his sister's son, and in case a woman being married into a distant tribe away from her relations, the offspring of such union when grown up, will leave their parents and go to their mother's tribe. Fifth—The clan relationship also regulates all feasting. A native invites the members of his own crest to a feast, they being regarded as his blood relations, are always welcome as guests, but at feasts, which are only given for display, all the clansmen within reasonable distance, are expected to contribute of their means and their services gratuitously to make the feast a success, for on the fame of the feast hangs the honor of the clan. Sixth—This social brotherhood has much to do with prompting hospitality among the Indians. A stranger, with or without his family, in visiting an Indian village needs be at no loss for shelter; he at once goes to the house belonging to one of his crest which he can easily distinguish by the totem pole in front of it. There he is sure of a Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured me. Equally good for burns and all aches and pains. Only 25c at W. B. Hutchinson's drug store. Civil Service Commission The United States civil service commission announces that examinations will be held in Los Angeles on September 22. Examinations will be for the following positions: Economic and statistician geologist and paleontologist, Philippine service, salary $2000 to $2250; age limit 18 to 40 years. This examination will be held August 24. Engineer draftsman, salary $1200; age limit 20 or over; examination August 17, 18 and 19.

BRUTALLY TORTURED A case came to light that for persistent and unmerciful torture perhaps never been equalled. Joe Golobick of Colusa, California, writes: "For fifteen years I endured insufferable pain from rheumatism and nothing relieved me, though I tried everything known. I came across Electric bitters and its the greatest medicine on earth for that trouble. A few bottles of it completely relieved and cured me." Just as good for liver and kidney troubles and general debility. Only 50e. Satisfaction guaranteed by W. B. Hutchinson, druggist. The same excellence that characterizes California in the Agricultural Department is equally conspicuous in the Department of Horticulture. By comparison with the exhibits made by other states in horticulture the display from the Golden State is far in the lead. Here California has 8,500 feet of floor space and about 3,000 feet of wall space, and on this, all artistically arranged are stands loaded with shiny jars of all varieties of the best fruit, processed by the best method known to the world. Nobody can touch California in this line. There are columns of nuts, encased in glass rising almost to the ceiling. There is a walnut elephant and a model of the capitol of the state, ten feet square made of almonds. There are pyramids of oranges, stacks of lemons and tables laden with apples. There are free deciduous fruits in season and other features; appliances and decorations peculiar to the industry, including working model of a California irrigation scene; all of which attract people, provoke the comment while Californians delight to hear, and give to the state in this important department a long lead over all competitors. In forestry California may not have the best exhibit, but she certainly well up to the front. Uncle Sam shines here, and some of the South American and Central American states are strong competitors. In her line, however California leads. She has the longest tree, the widest planks, and what she prises even some Californians, she has the greatest variety of ornamental woods and some of the handsome specimens in the department. She shows her woods worked into cabling expressions, into mill samples and plain. All the commercial woods are illustrated by striking samples, and the cabinet woods in such ways most effective. In the outside forest department California is strong altogether her display in this brainstorm attracts great attention and elicit stinted praise from visitors. In fish and game the state has a HISTORY OF PRODUCTS. California at the St. Louis Position—State Excels In Exhibits. Respondence of the Gazette. July 21—California's exotic World's Fair has some statistics different from that of any other state, which gives indication that others cannot possess more space than the one of any other state, barring that of Missouri; it shows a variety of natural products other state or country, and its construction is so constructed that it forms the embellishments. Quality the articles it shows upon with those of the same other parts of the world are superior. These features California first in interest of the union. Palace of Agriculture, a that covers twenty acres of California occupies 24,342 acres, exclusive of aisles. Here we have made their displays, great variety and excellent of their products they illusor-general is the richness that leads to California diffused over San Diego, more than six miles apart north and south, technically the same products, away from the counties intermiminate the vastness of areas that is equally suited to and the fig, the olive and the pomegranate and then the exhibits samples at every product can be found of our states can boast, and these cemented by many products this continent, at least, are only to California. and interesting exhibit, though not so extensive as those from some of the states and countries that make more of a specialty in this line. One feature of the state's exhibit in this department is the display of artificial flies by Benn of San Francisco, which is unquestionably the finest at the exposition from any state or country. In the Educational Department California shines, not in the extent of its exhibits, as quite a number of the states and some of the foreign countries have more space, but in the attractive character of the display and in the variety and quality of the work the Golden State ranks with the best. This exhibit, surmounted by a beautiful facade of natural redwood and embodying all the features of school work from the primary to the university, including splendid pictures by Hill of different state school buildings, the Stanford University and the High Observatory, etc., and feats work in the state, in something which visitors praise again. Its fame has gone abroad as teachers and college professors who visit the exposition hunt it up and as they were told not to miss it. Compared to anything California has ever done before in this line, it is as dollar to dimes and is appreciated by Californians accordingly. The university feature of California's educational display, which is favorably located in the alcove to the main entrance at the southeast corner of the Educational Palace, is one in which Californians take special pride, since it is admittedly the best and most extensive and most interesting exhibit made by any American university, not excepting that of Harvard or of Yale. This is a feature which has come with the advancement of the state and the times, and it was not touched upon at the Columbian Exposition eleven years ago. In the Mines and Metallurgy building California has more space than any other state, and makes one of the strong and striking displays in this department. The state has some feat On charge of the county extensive always on hand, ready to teach to enquiring visitors the the locations which they received visitors are always weladdition to the strong and the county exhibits made by in the Palace of Agriculture is a number of state features striking by reason of conductive character, their magnitude the beautiful manner in they are installed. Everybody once that the display of dried fruit by California in this design not only the largest and new in that line made at this exposition, but old exposition announce it the greatest expetion. The feature of canned fruit, like that of product, is imposing, beauattractive. The same is true feature of processed vegetaforage plants and fibers, of meals and soils, of strained and hey, of canned fish and of condidrelishes. All show up and most of them stronger than displays made by any other country. It was this aggreriated products, flanked and by the splendid exhibits of mimes, all beautifully and attinalled, that prompted V. Skiff, the eminent direcbits and an admitted expert, in one of his recent addresses of California's aggregate exhibit in Cultural Department was not minest in its line at this expotit by far the best display of products ever seen at any expotit in the world. Some excellence that charactersoria in the Agricultural Department is equally conspicuous in the ment of Horticulture. By comwith the exhibits made by mimes in horticulture the display of Golden State is far in the there California has 8,500 feet space and about 3,000 feet of size, and on this, all artistically are stands loaded with shinof all varieties of the best processed by the best method Educational Palace, is one in which Californians take special pride, since it is admittedly the best and most extensive and most interesting exhibit made by any American university, not excepting that of Harvard or of Yale. This is a feature which has come with the advancement of the state and the times, and it was not touched upon at the Columbian Exposition eleven years ago. In the Mines and Metallurgy building California has more space than any other state, and makes one of the strong and striking displays in this department. The state has some features here which are of striking interest. The finest and largest arch in the building, built with stones and terra cotta and brick from different quarries and works in California, stands at the main entrance to this display. Another feature is a grotto built and lined with pepidolite or lithia mica in the shape of an egg on end, one-half below the floor line and the other half above, with openings in the upper portion through which visitors can peer and look upon the glistening stones as the different colored crystals are reflected from the hidden electrical lights. Another is a display of borax and its varied products by the Pacific Coast Borax Co., being the finest exhibit ever put up by this company. Still another feature of this display is a large and handsome cabinet of rich minerals, including much free gold from Nevada county, supplemented by a small cabinet containing about $2,000 worth of free gold and rich ore, specimens which the miners of Nevada county presented to President Roosevelt on the occasion of his recent visit to California, and which the President has kindly loaned during the term of the exposition, to be displayed as an item of California's mining exhibit. These are supplemented by models, one of a quartz mill, one of a cyanide plant, one of an oil derrick and one of a drift mine. There is a strong display of mineral oils and of mineral waters and of structural material, and all these are reinforced by some forty odd varieties of minerals which have a commercial value and which are mined in California. There are gold specimens and gems to the value of more than $5,000. In unique features and variety California's mining display has no equal and attracts almost as much attention and as many visitors as any exhibit in the Mines Department. In the outside mining display on the Gulch, as it is called, California has a quartz mill 55x60 feet. In this are housed a fully equipped stamp mill for crushing gold ores, furnished by the Joshua Hendy Machine Works, a Lane rotary mill, three concentrators, a patent slag generator and a hydraulic giant. The mills and concentrators are operated, but up to the present the giant constitutes a still exhibit. In the arcade of the Mines Building California also shows a road oiling wagon with patent attachment for properly distributing the oil on the road's surface.

Amount received from State appor- Some excellence that characterizes California in the Agricultural Dept. is equally conspicuous in the management of Horticulture. By combining the exhibits made by states in horticulture the display of Golden State is far in the background. California has 8,500 feet of space and about 3,000 feet of land, and on this, all artistically arranged stands loaded with shininess of all varieties of the best processed by the best method into the world. Nobody can California in this line. There are nuts, encased in glass, almost to the ceiling. There is an elephant and a model of the state, ten feet square, palmonds. There are pyramids, stacks of lemons and tables with apples. There are fresh fruits in season and other appliances and decorations to the industry, including a model of a California irrigator; all of which attract the provoke the comment which giants delight to hear, and give state in this important department lead over all competitors. Destroy California may not have an exhibit, but she certainly is no front. Uncle Sam shines and some of the South American central American states are strong rivals. In her line, however,onia leads. She has the longest widest planks, and, what survene some Californians, she has greatest variety of ornamental and some of the handsomest ones in the department. She other woods worked into cabinets, into mill samples and All the commercial woods are used by striking samples, and all inner woods in such ways are effective. In the outside forestryment California is strong, and her display in this branch is great attention and elicit unpraise from visitors. In this area housed a fully equipped stamp mill for crushing gold ores, furnished by the Joshua Hendy Machine Works, a Lane rotary mill, three concentrators, a patent slag generator and a hydraulic giant. The mills and concentrators are operated, but up to the present the giant constitutes a still exhibit. In the arcade of the Mines Building California also shows a road oiling wagon with patent attachment for properly distributing the oil on the road's surface. In the Dairy Department California has a beautiful display of butter, ornamented with a model after Rashen's famous painting, typical of the state. Incubators are exhibited by California in the Poultry Department, and incidentally there are other articles of interest from the Golden State scattered throughout the departments, more particularly in Fine Arts, Transportation, Machinery, Liberal Arts, Mining, etc. In most cases these exhibits are made by companies or individuals, independent of the State Commission. Leaving out these latter, however, the State displays in the aggregate cover 71,000 square feet of space, which is a little more than the total area occupied by California at the Chicago exposition in 1893. At Chicago the total appropriation by the State was $327,500, which was re-enforced by $200,000 from the counties. The total State appropriation for St. Louis was $130,000 which was re-enforced by about $100,000 from the counties. At St. Louis California occupies as much space as it did at Chicago. Has more striking and attractive and instructive features, and in the opinion of experts has a better display on the whole and one that is calculated to reach farther in its beneficial results than was ever made anywhere at any time by the State that has already a reputation for making the best exhibits of natural products in the world.
