NEW NORTH POLE HUNTER
'"Musher” Will Be There the Fire#
When a Gold Stampede
Is Started.
There le a popular belief In the «*•
treme northwest that the north pole
will be discovered by a musher. and not
by any scientific polar expedition, says
the Sunset Magazine. This belief la
oased on the conviction that a gold
j Btampede will eventually be started
toward north latitude 90 degree#, and
that the mushers will rush in where
arctic explorers have feared to tread.
So completely unknown to fame is this
newcomer in the raee for the pole that
to the majority of people the name sug
gests nothing but cersal breakfast food.
Gilbert Parker, the novelist, who
finds his most congenial theme ia
Freneh-Candian life, has made his read
ers familiar with ”Marche-t’-en! ” ths
cry with which drivers of dog team*
urge forward their panting animals.
French-Canadian trappers were among
the earliest white men In the far north
west, and American prospectors on ths
Yukon soon learned to goad their dogs
on with the same cry, without, however,
understanding the French, which, in
their mouths, was rapidly corrupted to
“Muchon!" to this day an Alaska dog
driver’s equivalent for “Gee up!"
Dog drivers generally rush with the
team and therefore from “Mush-on" has
come the noun musher, used all over
Alaska and the Yukon territory to des
ignate a trallsman. The musher ia gen
erally prospector, stampeder and trails
man all rolled into one, and Alaska trails
are such uncertain quantities that he
has frequently to make his own prece
dents over newly frozen sea and track
less snow. The musher achieves most
of his stampeding to new gold fields dur
ing the arctic winter, for then the rigid
sea becomes a highway and mighty
rivers need no bridging.
RAVAGES OF THE SOUVENIR
What Was Once a Harmless Fad Has
Become Almost a Univer
sal Mania.
TIia Trrttnwj nf fhck illnofrataH a/Mivanf*
postal card has assumed the dimensions
of a literary peril. What was once a
harmless fad confined to more or less ec
centric visitors In out-of-the-way place#
ha# become all but a universal mania,
says the New York Post The Boston
post office reports handling 25,000 of
these yellow imps in a single day. The
■o-called comic valentine once tainted
the postman’s bag. Its Influence, how
ever, lasted but for a day, while the aou
venir postal card ceaseth not day no*
night to cry for a destroyer.
From the point of view of growing
popularity these postal cards but evi
dence anew the danger with which
modern mechanism is continually en
compassing the other handicraft arts.
The printed book has driven out Illus
trated missal. “The quarter-sawed oak"
of Kalamazoo has displaced Chippen
dale and Sheraton. And at last the illus
trated postal, with cheap ready-made
sentiment and chromo lithograph
threatens the letter of friendship, travel
and description. The residuary field of
the epistolary art was long supposed to
be safe from the inroads of the printing
press. Political intelligence such a*
fills Horace Walpole's six stout vol
umes of private letters has for over a
century been disseminated in the news
papers. Scientific news has long sine*
found similar media of publicity. But
the Intimate unbosoming of friend to
friend at a distance has held at bayy all
the devices of modern machinery unti'
the advent of this substitute for a reai
letter.
SPEAKING WITH EMPHASIS.
Calisthenics Accompany the Word#
of Neapolitans When Dis
cussing Weather.
“Give a Neapolitan a pair of dumb
bells and ask him if he thinks it is like
ly to rain, and before his answer is
finished he will have taken enough
healthful exercise to last him all day."
Once, says the London Clarion, a trav«
eler sat with a friend in a cafe at
Naples. Near them were two Italians
eagaged in conversation. The younger
nf the twn seemed much excited.
With his hands he made reaching and
clinging motions, as if climbing. Then
he seemed to be groping for cherries in
the air, as he reached right and left
above his head. Next, without slacken
ing his conversation, he put the thumb
and forefinger of his left hand together,
and holding them before his eyes, went
through the careful movements of on*
threading a small needle, and all ths
time he talked.
Suddenly his manner changed. Hs
made overhand motions, as if throwing
something. Then he apparently imitated
a swimmer, and immediately afterward
described several circles with his left
hand, giving the impression of a rapid
ly revolving wheel.
Finally he leaned forward, and with
his right hand acted the part of a per*
son endeavoring to put a key into a key
hole.
The traveler was overcome by curios
ity. He turned to his friend, who un
derstood Italian, and asked him what
the plot of the story wat.
“Oh, nothing,” replied the other.
"They’re chatting about the weather.1*

Ground hog Has Lost Out.
Every dog has his day and
hogs too for that matter, wheth
er human or bristled porcupine.
Last year on February second,
Mr. Ground Hog had no chance
to see his shadow and forthwith
the faithful began to plant gar
Hpns onlv to be nioued and
blasted by cold and frost. Woe
unto the traditional ground hog.
Nineteen hundred and six soon
rolled around and there were few
so superstitious as to do Mr.
Ground Hog reverence, scarcely
respect. His once mighty tra
dition has fallen and even those
who remembered upon this Feb
ruary second the past import of
the day and made a note of the
sunshine that prevailed, will
never call the poor Mr. Ground
Hog to account if winter wind -
should never blow again. H
has lost out.

known in Newport.
In Batesville, Messrs. Cook
