PROGRESSIVE TRAVEL.
The man on horseback jogged along
anon he hummed a little song: he
said: "I pity that galoot, who plods
along the road on foot; I'd rather in
my grave repose than pound the
highway with my toes." A stately
carriage then rolled by; the fellow in
it heaved a sigh. "Great Scott!"
he cried, "I'd be a corpse, before I'd
travel on a horse! To ride upon an
old white mare, aud get all covered
with her hair ? well, that's the limit,
snd I vow, I'd rather ride upon a
cow!" With many a chug and roar
and Jar there thundered past a motor
car; its owner, riding thus in style,
glanced at the carriage with a smile.
"A relic of the ages dark! I'd rather
ride in Noah's ark! Just see those
silly horses shy, and kick the driver
in the eye! They travel fifteen miles
a day, and pant and sweat the i
whole blame way, and they are apt
to buck and pitch, and dump the out
fit In a ditch. I cannot see how any
chap will ride In such a blooming
trap!" An airship whizzed o'erhend
afar; Uh? driver watched the motor
car. and to his passenger said he:
"I'd ride upon the gallows tree before
I'd leave this trusty ship, in such a
car to take a trip! The driver makes
some slight mistake, and then the
whole machine will break, and there
will be a slck-'ning thud, a dust
cloud and a shower -of blood." ? Walt
Mason.
AND YET NO FIGHT.
Editor Gray of the Atlanta Journal
calls Editor Howell of the Atlanta
Constitution a "scoundrel and liar"
and the "stuffed baby of Georgia
Journalism" caught as a "red handed
faker." Editor Howell returns the
compliment by calling Gray a "fish
monger. guttersnipe, brute and bully"
and a "thug so Insensible to gentility
and refinement as not to know the
amenities of gentlemanly discussion."
What's the use of further cornering a
polecat?" Howell closes. If this isn't
enough to warrant an affair of honor,
what is? ? Exchange.

STAMPEDE 10
THE. 10K0
Fairbanks. Alaska. Sept. 2 ? Re
ports oT rich strikes in the Iunoko
country, southeast of Norton sound,
has caused a genuine stampede of
prospectors to the district, which Is
said to be of the typo known as the
"poor man's country," because the
pay dirt is accessible without the
use of expensive machinery.
Already there have been large ship
ments of machinery to the new dis
trict from Fairbanks. .More than a
hundred prospectors have left Fair
banks for the Innoko regidn this
week, most of them headed for the
Iditarod and its tributaries.
This Is the third season of pros
pecting in the Innoko district, and
each report receivd from there tells
0* the rich strikes ntade in the
shallow diggings there.
