It never can be trusted after. The

hopelessness of restoring It to Its
former state. Coarse stones. If they
are fractured, may be cemented again:

HIS SIORY
Trials W'liiclj Drove Jim
Uosbee Insaue
Jim Gosbee was one of ihe pioneer
prospector* of the Porcupine district.
His brother Phil Gos >te was convicted
and sentenced for lifo to McNeil's island
for the murder of Robert Campbell,
where for years he has been serving
bis sentence. Confinement is killing
the bat dy frontiersman and be is now
but the shadow of his former self. His
death is iooked for at any litre. Jim
Gosbee circulated a petition for his
brother's release. It was universally
signed throughout the couutry where
the circumstances of bis crime were
known. It seemed for a time tbat the
president would grant him a pardon as
Jim Gosbee 's prayer was backed by the
court and jurors who tried bim, by the
governor of thp district and many ororn
inent, people with whom they were in
touch. Hut the president finally denied
the petition. This preyed on poor old
Jim's mind and sadened his life. Jim
Gosbee has a home on the shore of Lynn
canal a'lout a utile from Haines. Dur
ing latter years he has m-<iuuiaed him
self fishing, working at bis trade of car
penter, mining and Hunting,
About three months ago Cosbee was
missed from the neighborhood. His
premises were searcne<l and it was found
tbat his watch and the persona' belong
ings he usually carried with him were
near his bedside. His boats were on the
bsoch and his guns in thoir accustomed
place upon the wall. A hundred dollars
reward was immediately raised among
the people of Ilaice-' for information
that would clear the mvs'erv nnd a
search of the country for miles about
was institute'1..
The belief that -poor James Gosbee
matdeced by his sorrows is wandering
through the mountains bereft of rea-on
has redoubled the efforts in his search
by the many friends who bear him
k'na'y feelings and esteem.
BAINtS PrtiPLt
A lit SfAUCIilNG
The people of Haines ar? forming a
searching party to Seek Jim Gosbee,
who is ?ilieved to be in the woods ot
the Porcupine or Rainy Hallow sec
tions. The people are volunteering to
spend ten days in the search. They will
form in a circ'e ami beat the entire
country in the vicinity of where th
strangt maniac, who ia believed to be
Gosbee, is known lo hive spent tome of
his time.
Tree Fountain.
An extraordinary curiosity Is to he
seen lu the Swiss villa-re of Cunten, on
Lake Thun. It takes the form of n nat
ural tree fountain, the water Bowing
continuously from a spout high up In
the tree. About twenty years ago the
water from a spring was conducted
through a #haft. and the supply pipe
was directed through the cut trunk of
a young poplar tree which was rammed
In the ground. After a short time the
trunk rooted: branches followed, and
now tVre is a'spleudid top growth.
Iceland From a Lava Wall.
The general Impression that Iceland
In a cnlJ country Is a false one, says u
writer In Travel Magazine. lu Reyk
javik. the capital of the Island. I ona
day perched myself on one of the lava
walls aud looked at a scene of summer
warmth and beauty. Familiar cows
and cats and hens were busy In the
sunshine, (,'hildren, thinly clad, were
playing about with shouts of merri
ment potatoes were In full blossom,
and cabbage and various vegetables
added to the sense of homelike comfort.
But such days are oases In vust deserts
ol' raiu, for if Iceland in summer Is
nut cold it Is uot comfortable.
Room Doors on the Stage.
In real life room doors always open
In toward the room Itself. On the
stage, however, room doors, as a rule,
open outward, or away from the room.
Exits are one of the most difficult parts
of the netor's art. and If he or she had
to fumble with the handle, pull th4
door toward them, step round it and
pass through they would probably
make n clmnsy dodge of It. That Is
why. as a rule, doors are constructed
to open outward nt n nosh.
