POINT HOPE. Alaska. Oct. l.-The re
cently reported burial of the skulls and
bons of 1,200 long dead F'.eklmos In the
episcopal bury In ground here under the
direction of Bishop P. T. Howe may bring
about a change In burial customs In the
north. Thfl ekulls and bon were picked
up en the surface of Hi" ground lUKt
whro they were left, maybe a thousand
yrnra ago.
All along the shores of the Arctic from
Tape Prince of Wale to f,abrador and far
Into the tintravelled Interior thl appar
ently heartless custom of leaving the dead
a prey to wolves and half wolf dog haa
prevailed from time Immemorial. Thera la
scarcely a rldh' or headland In all the
vnst territory over which the F.sklmoa
have roamed that has not somewhere upon
it a place of akulla.
There la nothing that mora Impresses the
Arctic traveler than thee ever preaent
skull an they stare, out from their dark
uioea beda on the froaen hills of tha north
land. Some of them have kept their long
vigils through centurlea and crumble at
the touch like chalk. Other ara atart
llngly fresh from the framework of tha
living.
Tell your Eskimo guide that ba ahould
bury hi dead and lie will tell you that
In summer water would coma Into tha
j grave. Tell him that In civilised landa
ihey aometlrnea cremate tha dead and ha
will be horrified. Aa a matter of fact,
the custom of leaving he dVad on tha
Arctic hilltop to be the food of ravage
beasts Is natural and unavoidable.
Could .'Sot Il Oraivaa.
The digging of a grave In the far north
even In Bummer with the toola possessed
by the Eskimos la next to impossible,
for even In July tha ground Immediately
beneath the tnoss that covera the surface
..af .ry where Ih frozen aa hard aa granite
to an unknown depth. Even where under
ground Ice la found tha Eskimos wou'd
consider the making of a. grave a uaelesa
expenditure of energy and at the same
time a cruel proceeding, for tha thought Of
having to lie In Icy water la unbearable
to an Eskimo. So their dead ara left on
the dry hilltop'.
Although the dead are Iftft on their
mossy beds beneath the unprotectlng atara
It must not be thought that there ia no
sorrow whan dsath visits an Eskimo vil
lage. There are no more affectionate
people In the World; thla In tha testimony
of everyone familiar with their waya. But
they typify the childhood of the raca.
Their grief, like that of children, la acuta
and ia aoon over with.
Men, women and children aob when tha
eye of tha alck no longar respondi to the
peculiar death teat, and In tha old days
their sorrow was doubly Intense when at
the rrqueat of the patlant the end waa
hastened by a friendly knlfa thrust and
the helpless sufferer waa put out of pain
forever. For half aa hour tha weeping
may continue. Then tha acme changes.
Tba Igloo is orowded with neighbors.
Only tha little corner where tha corpse Ilea
Is vacant. Outside there ara mors people
with dog sleds to which ara harnessed the
finest dogs In the village. Soon the corpse
la carried out, and if a man it la placed
upon tha aled which was and, acoordlng to
Ksklmo ethics, .still la,- hla own.
ltmskr Kid Raaa Ahead.
A small boy runs ahead of tha dead
man's dor team with tha cry, "Hakt
Hakl" and tha funeral procession ia in
stantly under way. A dosen dog aleda,
f) with their Ivory runnera creaking In the
cold are flying over tha snow, on they
go, soma behind, soma ahead, some abreaat
of tha Improvised heara. There la no sys
tem, no precedence, no ceremony. It Is
too cold for ceremony, so oa they fly, tha
aleda bumping and bounding over the
uneven surface of the snow.
At tha top of soma ridge, mayb a mil
from tha village, the cortege halts. Tha
dead man la lifted from th aled and laid
upon th anow. Clad in hla everyday
garments of deerskin and wrapped In a
walrus skin shroud they leave blm there
with tha friends who have gone before.
His weapons, his aled and all tha per-
aonal property that tha oommunlatlo aoolety
In which ha lived allowed him to possoss
Wis left there beside him.
1 K'fiht then and there all mourning oeaaea.
There, ia not a dog In tha Arctic that does
not know that a funeral without a dog
raca would be a farce. Every child,' every
malamoot pup In the-village knows that
the team that wins this funeral race will
win honor and froaen acal meat from
avcry igluo.

they fly, dugs, detached pups, men, women
c lilldi. n and vliii f mourners, all lacing
and shouting frantically. The occasion ,a
onu of ronf us on and wild hilarity.
In thia way Ilia Arctlo hns disposed of
her dead, for no one knows how many
generations. Time are no tearful dUgeJ,
no flowers all run upon newly moulded
graves. There ia ho ulumpt made to make
the occasion Impressive, no attempt to

Time has been v. hen the dealer might go
slung any sort of way and soil his car.
Any sort of talk-any kind of demotintr;i
tlon would answer the purpose. Now the
game Is different vastly different. It
takes a man, a man as keen as mustard.
to live through It. He must Re as honest I
as the dsy Is long. He must sell a good
car; he must know that It Is good. Mis
take are Irreparable In a life splitting
game. The worst thing to blast a dealer's
chances Is the collapse of a vital part
of his car at a time when It should hold
up best.
Th lima has blown over when a man
or woman In th city will rid around
In a tar not advertised and talked about.
It is natural. Nobody wishes t be con
spicuous who has the least elegance In
their makeup. And they become con
spicuous at onca when somebody has to
say: "I don't know that car. It's a new
on on me. Ion't sea It talked of." Nor
do they feel comfortable spinning around
In a car once much talked of, but now
scarcely heard of.
Thera waa a time when dealers might
ship any sort of cars Into the country
for the "country trade." as they termed
It (thla Is not so much practiced in Omaha,
however, as In other cities) but the fsrmers
and merchants of the country s re becoming
the largest buyers of cars; they read, they
know befor you apeak, the mechanical
makeup of almost every car la on their
tongue and they no longer take what la
left. They want a car that ts talked of
and written about, and a car that does
thing. That's what the farmer and the
erchant of the country want. And they
are getting It. too.
Th Orummond Carriage company has
leased the building on Farnam street for
merly used as a gsrag for th White
Steamer to the Htandard Automobile com
pany.
Drummond will hereafter conduct his au
tomobile bUMlness at his main plnr of
business on Eighteenth street. He has re
duced his stock of vehicles sufficiently to
enable him to show them on the second
floor, and the main show room on tha
first floor has been overhauled for an au
tomobile salesroom. This puts hla auto
mobile business under the same roof with
hla top manufactory and repair depart
ments, both of which hav been enlarged
and fitted out with modern machinery.
Tha main floor, to be used for office and
salesroom of th White Steamer, will bo
provided with large glass doors and glass
show windows. In the 1-ane will be an
elevator entrance for the repair depart
ment. Altogether, th plant Is now on
of th best appointed In this section of
the country for top and body building
and for all sorts of repairs to cars.
It Is the Intention of Drummond to push
th automobile department more vigor
ously than ever. Hla agency embraces
th White Steamer. Whlta Gasoline car
and th Woods Electric, all cara of high
class, wall known and popular In this
section.
Drummond said: "Probably the most re
markabl demonstration of fuel economy
ever made, even by a Whit 8teamr,
which requires a minimum of gasoline, was
recently recorded by H. B. Scott In south
ern Kansas. Mr.. SooU, Chanute, Kan.,
who Is an owner of a 1910 kerosene burn
Ing White Steamer, during tha four weeka
this fail after tha delivery of hla machine,
traveled 1,174 miles over Kansas roads, hla
fuel maintenances for that mileage
amounting tb 17.48. Thla remarkable record
of fuel economy ia accounted for to soma
degree by th fact that Mr. Scott's Whit
Bteamer Is on of th kerosene burning
type and ha Uvea in an oil producing re
gion and can get hla keroaen at a low
price. This fuel coat It an average of less
than one-third oent a mile and la the more
remarkable that th mileage waa made
exclusively on rough-country roads."
Guy Smith said: "Th same reasons that
mak tb Franklin eaay on tlrca mak It
easy to rlda In It. Vibrations from road
shocks ar taken up, not transmitted
through th automobile to th passenger as
la th caa with rigid steel-frame and semi
elliptic spring construction. And th larger
th tlrss to th weight of an automobile
th eaaler It rides. Tou caa rid long die
tances In a Franklin without fatigue. Tour
nerve system la not put under strain by
vibration and jolting."

Detroit company which was making liC
cars a year, and haa in on yar pushed
the production and salea of this company

Th coming year wll probfcaly be th

It was noticed that many of the visitors
to the National Automobile show at At

Quaker drab envelopes containing beauti
fully embossed and hand-lettered Invita

to interest them. The 1H10 leader among
Waverley electrics Is a four-passenger

This la tha kind of literature that many
of us like to read In the odltorlat pages of
our newspapers. It is true that the de
mand for good music is Increasing.
Where ara now those serious and wis
old fossils who wrote heavy editorials some
ten or twelv years ago, disputing the
statements of musical writers that rag
time was a pausing fid: there were papers
witii blu names enough, whose editors aired
their "notions" and thought they were con
victions, on the perniHiirncy and potential
ity of rjLg-ttme as the real foik-on of
th peoplu! The mudlciana r clanks and
what-not because they did not agree with
that. Do you remember the discussion?
It was silly, ft waa laughable, and It did
no harm, to write thoac foolish things
about music, ajid to call musician name

come to stay: It has coma to stay:" wrote
thee wise one, "because It Is founded on
a principle that Is one of the fundament

had told them that rag-tlm was founded
on Syncopation.)
Now "Syncopation" In music meuns prac
tically and without techiilcsJ terminology.

that there they had the whole thing In a

Once In a while sum new song will have
an element of the old stuttering tempo,
but It soon vanished: Just a measiure or so,
and tnen bavs to normal. In two musical
comedy "shows" which the writer saw
this winter, both very good of their kind,
and high-priced productions, he does not
remember hearing one song in rag time,

ago. It would have permeated the entire

ness In it, as a piece of work, and it was
presented with excellent taat and abun

popular music, but It na not a brainless
and atupid stereot) ptd thing: K w as popu

someone had "thounht" about it.
To return to the oruuestra Question which
handle, foot brakes and voltmeter are all
within the car, and after listening to the
explanation of the method of operating
these, given by Pale Manager Hoy A.
Potts. or Southern Representative F. I
Faker, both of whom are at the show, the
visitor is quickly convinced that nothing
could exceed the ssfety and ease of opera
tion of a W'averley electric brougham.
To show the motor and lrh Ing system of
the'r cars, these gentlemen have mounted
a Waverley drive separate from the ears
on exhibition. They keep this In operation
by electric power, and attract many visitors
to their booth In this wsy. It is claimed
that solid rubber tires can be used with
this drive with perfect comfort to the occu
pants of the carriage.
Model 71. Waverley Victoria-phaeton, and
model 74, Waverley stanhope, are also on
exhibition. A very attractive feature f

Remember that extra tires are not carried
because of punctures, but because of blow
outs. 1 Blow-outs ruin th ordinary tire equip
ment. Proper equipment never blowa out.
The tiles wear out.
Crude rubber is steadily advancing in
price. The cost of tires Is Increasing. You
cannot afford to have your tire break
down or burst; you want their full life and

was discussed In this column soma weeks
ago: the opera taste Is not the only thing
that Is developing, for her we have some
interesting data about th growth of the
American orcheatras. A writer In the
Sprlngf ild (Mars.) Re-publican, of last
Sunday, has quoted from an article In th
New York Press on the spread of or
chestral music. In which after speaking of
the several New York orchestras, and th
Boston "Symphony" and others, the Chi
cago Symphony, th Pittsburg Orchestra
and th Philadelphia (under Carl Pohllg),
we find this part of the article which In
terests us of the west:
"St. Louis Is not lugging In the orches
tral race. That city can now boast an or
chestra, which, like our own Philharmonic
society, la placed on a permanent basis.
Trie musicians are engaged for a period
of twenty weeks, during which time there
rlll bo dally rehearsals. Matinee concerts
have been added to the regular evening
subscription performances and Sunday
popular performances. Moreover, the ft
Louis orchestra, following the example of
the Ronton symphony, will make an ex

knunnrinriiU to go on frequent trlpa
through Missouri. Illinois and Kansas.
"Washington has an orchestra; Milwaukee

St. Paul, with Walter ."othwell as musical

but not least. .Seattle Is fighting to be a
center of music. For several years the new
metropolis on Puget Hound, Irresistible In
Its propulsive energy, has maintained a
i.yu: liony orchestra, made up for th most
part, as Is generally the case, of men who
play in huteH and restaurants. During the
last two seasons th work of drilling and
conducting was intrusted to Mr. Keferize
of Philadelphia. Seattle's musical women
decldrd. however, that the orchestra needed
bigger barter and that Henry Hadley,
the American composer, would be the man.
Hadlev, who has added to his talents as
a compo.'-er five years of experience in
Kurope as a conductor, accepted the call
with enthusiasm.
"Until this year the Seattle symphyny or
chestra was managed entirely by women.
Anxious, however, to run the orchestra
entirely on business principles, these
women, hsudiid by Mrs. C. I), tstlmson,
