LIQUID JOY
4,000 Autos Pass Over
Boundary Line Into
British Columbia.
Blaine, Wash.. June 13.—A
continuous stream of automo
biles passed through this place
yesterday, on the highway lead
ing through the so-called portal
of peace. The pleasure seekers,
almost without exception, were
destined for Victoria or other
points in British Columbia, al
ready famous as the oasis of the
great North American desert,
where-quart portions of some of
mankind's liquid requirements
are more easily obtainable than
on the American side of the
boundary line.
Over four thousand machines,
by actual count, passed over the
road. Averaging three persons
in each machine, it is-estimated
that the pleasure seekers num
bered over twelve thousand.

! Heard the Guns of
Custer and His Men
in Their Last Fight
Wheeler. Ore.—W. E. Knight-, a
Wheeler barber, is one of the few re
maining Indian fighters of the old Buf
falo Bill davs. He was one of the
youngest of the famous Cody scouts and
owned the ranch where General Custer
lost his life and meo.
He is an efficient workman, despite
his 65 years, two broken arms and two
broken legs, and, watching him at work
I in his little shop, it is hard to believe
that he be«rd the guns cf Custer and
his handful of men as they fought their
last fight with the Sioux hordes by the
Little Big Horn, where he owned a cat
tle ranch.
Knight moved to the Dakotas in 1866,
then a boy of 10 years. Ten years later
he owned the stock on 50 square miles
of land leased from the Government. It
was on this land, known as the E. K.
ranch and within gunshot of the ranch
house, that Custer was surrounded by
the Indians. Knight at the time was
riding the range six or eight miles dis
tant.
Now and then, when no customers
are in his little shop, Knight will tell
you the adventures of Ed Knight, the
scout—weird and terrible tales of In
dian massacre and murder, exciting
stories of herds of buffalo that crowded
through the streets of the small town
of North Platte and held up traffic for

aD hour and a half with their passing,
of an exodus of grasshoppers that
stopped a railway train, of prairie fires
that drove man and beast to the river—
tales that are in strange contrast to the
quiet little barber shop in Wheeler.
A reiudeer race covering a course 54
miles in length was held during the
winter in the Shismareff section, and
was covered in a little over four hours.
Five one-deer teams were entered.
The course was from Eldorado creek, a
tributary of the Serpentine river, to
Shismareff village, a distance of 27
miles, and return to Eldorado. With
one exception, all the teams finished.
