Ho Preferred Mules.
One of the | iet hobbles of Seualor
Christopher Mn -ee was his newspaper,
the Pittsburg Times, lie kept the |u?
l>er well to the front, anil It was a
credit to modern Journalism. One
luorniug the Times hud l>ecn scooped
?>n a railway wreck.
"Senator." asked an Intimate ac
iiunlntauce, "how do you console your
self on the loss of that wreck story
this mornlugV
"By congratulating ourselves." he an
swered quickly, "that we are among
the number who missed that III fated
train."
On another occasion as the seuator
was approaching the Times building
on Fourth avenue he noticed a crowd
gathered about a wagon which was
tilled with huge rolls of uewspaper. A
wheel was caught In a deep rut lu the
pavement and could not be budged.
"Senator." laughed a friend, "they
managed at last to get your paper Into
a rut."
"Yes," nnswered Mr. Magee, his eyes
twinkling with good humor, "and I'm
uot trusting to men to get It out again,
but to mules." Philadelphia Press.
Vanity of Mon.
In woman's club, over tea and
cigarettes, a group of ladles cited
many, many Instances of the foolish
ranlty of males.
"Take the case of bees," oue said. I
"Because the nucon bee rules the hive,
because she Is the absolute mistress
of millions of subjects, man up to a
few hundred years ago denied her sex.
He called her the king bee.
"Pliny wrote somewhere, 'The klug
'mm- is the only male, all the rest being
females." And Moses Ilusden, lieckeep
er to Charles 11., stoutly denied, In or
der to please his royal master, that the
large bee, the ruler of the hlven, be
longed to the gentler sex.
"Even Shakespeare couldn't bear to
think that the bee of l>ees, the largest
and wisest and fairest, the hive's ab
solute lord, was a female. No, all the
proofs notwithstanding, Shakespeare
called her a male. Don't you remem

"'Seven million dollar* arc wasted
annually in Alaska on transporta
tion," said Dan Kaln, chairman of
the Alaaka day committee.
"Every dollar wasted 1* a direct
loss to the Alaska miner, to Seattle
and to the portions of the states that
receive the northern harvest of gold.
There is no business concern on earth'
but would take Immediate stfps to
obviate thin waste. If a big company
were operating Alaska, paying the ex
pense of mining and getting the re
turns In gold, $10,000,000 would be
appropriated Instantly to build roads,
so as to haul supplies in and bring
bullion out on a decent wagon rond
system. If necessary, bonds would be
Issued, such as proposed in this state.
"Alaska's saving In transportation
will do more than take care of the
costs of building roads in twenty
year*, should a trunk wagon road sys
tem be provided. J. L. McPherson,
of the board of road commissioners
for Alaska, stated a few evenings ago
at the meeting of Alaskans in the
Arctic club, that the board had built
roads and trails which effected a sav
ing to the miners in one year equal
to the total cost of the construction
work This Is the estimate of a man
thoroughly familiar with conditions in
Alaska. Alaskans believe that th<
total cost of a trunk wagon road
from Valde* to the Yukon would lx?
saved in transportation charges in
two years. Furthermore, there are
figures back of this estimate which
must convince the most skeptical ?
