MORE MISINFORMATION PRINTED
III THE EAST ABOUT ALASKA
> .
Alaska is in a bad way, its pea
pie are dissatisfied and are getting
out at the rate of 500 per month, ac
cording to Robin Adair, a well known
Attantan, who has been spending the
summer in the cold regions of the
extreme North.
In a letter to his father, Dr. R. B.
Adair, Mr. Adair declares that con
ditions up there are deplorahle, but
does not go into details. As an il
lustration of the state of affairs, he
gives an insight into the cost of liv
ing by quoting a few prices, as follow
"Beer, 25 cents a glass.
"Coal $18 a ton and up.
"Chambermaids are paid $150 a. |
month.
Doctors charge $5 a visit.
"Ordinary laborers have to be paid
$10 to $15 a day."
BAG OF MONEY
USED AS CLUB
(By Alaska News Bureau.)
HANTORD, Cal. Sept. 30 ? Two men
were captured and taken to the city
jail here last night by A. E. Gribi,
a jeweler who caught them attempt
ing to rob his store. The only weapon
Gribi carried was a bag of money.
Threatening the robbers with the sack
of coin he marched them to jail. Both
robbers were heavily armed.
The Humboldt is due in port at 5
o'clock this evening and will leave
shortly after her arrival.
The Grace E., a small gasoline boat
left Juneau yesterday morning at S
o'clock with the mail, but has not
arrived here yet.
The train this afternoon had a hun
dred passengers, many of whom left
for the south on the Humboldt
A Real Patriot.
"Let's see," said the lawyer who had
met an out of town acquaintance on a
street car, according to the New Or
leans Picayune, "doesn't your town
soon hold an election ?"
"It does."
"And I suppose you take a lively in
terest in it?"
"Well, not too lively? not as lively
as I used to."
"Interest falling off, eh? Didn't you
run for mayor two or three years ago?"
"I have run for mayor cf my town
seven successive times, sir."
"And been? been"?
"Been defeated every time, sir."
"Then you probably won't run
again?'
"That's uncertain. I am going to
inquire around and find If I am really
the man they want. If I am, then I'll
take the candidacy; If not, then I will
try to defeat the man they do want"
NATURE SPARES
The Strlckcn Roue From Grief.
What a. fortunate provision of nature
t Is, that deprives the- rose of mental
-uttering; for how poignant would be Its
rief to discover. In the height of its
olooming glory, that a canker fed at Its
heart, and that Its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
?one by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands

"Alaska is being depopulated," Mr. !
Adair says further, "at the rate of
500 a month, and when, you think
there are only 50,000 population in
all you will see what this means.
Conditions are very bad."
Mr. Adair went 1,000 miles farther
north than tourists go as a rule. He
found the climate splendid, the ther
mometer ranging around 50 degrees.
However, this, says Mr. Adair, made
it feel like Georgia on a day in July,
it being very comfortable without a
coat.
He says the people of the territory
are depending on Secretary Fisher,
of the department of commerce and
labor to give them relief, his pros
pective vist being the chief topic of
discussion on all hands. ? Atlanta

Somewhat Absentminasa.
Some amusing glimpses of the dls
coverer of chloroform are given in the
"Recollections of Lady Priestly," wife
of Simpson's assistant at the time of
the discovery. "The professor," she
writes, "used to make his experiments
with chloroform on us girls, and with
some of the liquid just poured on a
handkerchief would have half a dozen
of us lying about In various stages of
sleep. Our mother feared nothing and
was only too delighted to sacrifice. If
unavoidable, a daughter or two to
science! * * * He was extremely
absentmlnded. I remember once
lunching at tiis House when he had
Just arrived from some antiquarian ex
pedition. The butler, who had been
unpacking his tbiugs, came in and
said confidentially. 'Doctor, you have
left all your flannel vests behind r
'Ah! Oh!' replied Simpson, feeling
himself all over. 'I've got them all
on.'"? Pall Mall Gazette
Ooping the Baby.
"At the first sign of nn attempt to
standardize and sterilize the babies,"
says Ellis Parker Butler In Success
Magazine, "I organized the Fond Fa
thers' Oopde-baby * Association of
America. For thousands of years fa
thers have been permitted to oop-de
baby unrestrained, and this right was
one of the Qrst rights attacked by the
advocates of the automatic baby. I
considered it a double blow at the
baby and at the father and resented it
as such. If a father may not oop h!s
own baby, what Is the world coming
to? Ooping a baby is a father's great
est pleasure. It is the act of grasping
the baby under ;he arms, tossing the
baby into the air and catching it od
its down trip, while the words "Oop-de
baby!" are repeated at each toss. This
Is repeated until the baby is hysterical
or drops on the floor by accident It
Is then banded to its mother."
Bones Stronger Than Oak.
The wonderful power of bone struc
ture has been tested scientifically to
show how that hollow bone beara
strain. A very small bone, only one
square millimeter (.0155 square inch)
in diameter, will hold thirty-three
pounds in suspension without break
ing, while a piece of the best oak of
the same thickness will hold up only
twenty-two pounds. The bone is
therefore half again as strong as the
solid oak, thus showing that nature Is
economical in the weight given to
bones, making them hollow and at the
same time makes them strorger than
if they were solid ?nd much heavier.
This principle has been recognized in
mechanics, engineers using hollow
steel tubes Instead of solid to meet
great strain.? Netv York World.
Tobacco In Vienna.
"They have a way of asking a
stranger when he comes to Vienna,"
says a letter from that city, " 'Who is
the largest, the most reliable, the
smallest, the best and the worst dealer
In cigars and cigarettes in Vienna?'
Of course the stranger doe3 not know
the answer, and the native tells him
triumphantly. The government' The
government has the monopoly, and
every person employed in a tobacco
shop? they call them 'traDk'? is a gov
ernment employe."

IS YOUR SILVER
ENGRAVED?
Where can be found more genuine
satisfaction than, iu beautiful table
silver which is artistically engraved
with the name or initials of the owner
There is nothing that adds to the
appearance of a table, set for some
special occasion like beautiful silver
service, and that the choieest and
most unique designs can be had right
here in Skagway, is well worthy of
note.
Like all the stock in the Kirmse
store, the silver stock is equalled in
no other store in town, and when it
is know that all engraving is done
free of charge, this should be a great
inducement to get what you are think
ing of buying at the Kirmse store.
It is time to think of Thanksgiving,
[Christmas and New Year's dinners,
|'and to make arrangements to have
I a table service which will be in keep
ing with the balance of the appoint
ments of your table.
