# The New Student's Reference Work/Yukon Territory, Can.

See also Yukon Territory on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Yukon (yo͞o′kŏn) Territory, Can., the most important part of northern Canada at present. It extends from the northern boundary of British Columbia to the Arctic Ocean and from the Rocky Mountains to Alaska, U. S. A. It is about 650 miles from north to south by 550 in greatest breadth from east to west. Although it does not touch the Pacific, its southern boundary is only 30 miles from tidewater. A railway of 110 miles connects at Skagway, the head of tidewater in Alaska, with White Horse at the head of steamboat navigation on Yukon River. This is navigable for large steamers from White Horse through Yukon Territory and Alaska to Bering Sea, a distance of 1,630 miles. Yukon is important because of the gold discoveries on Klondike River in 1897. There had been gold-mining on a small scale on Stewart and Forty Mile Rivers, but in 1897 remarkably rich discoveries were made in two streams flowing into the Klondike, a tributary of the Yukon, and in some adjacent streams. The stampede which followed was one of the most remarkable the world has known. Since that time over $100,000,000 in gold have been taken out, and investments of many millions are now being made in the expectation of taking out one hundred million dollars more in the next few years. There are placer-mines in active operation in widely separated portions of the territory, and silver, copper, quartz and coal mines as well. Dawson, the capital, is on the Yukon at the mouth of the Klondike. Although Yukon is only a few miles south of the Arctic circle, the climate in summer is very pleasant, and hardy vegetables, as turnips and cabbages grow very well. Below the surface the ground in the northern part of the territory is always frozen, but the surface is not frozen from April to October inclusive. Population 8,000.

# The New Student's Reference Work/Yucatan

# The New Student's Reference Work/Yucca Moth

See also Yucca moth on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Yucca (yŭk' kȦ) Moth, a small moth which gathers pollen and fertilizes the yucca-plant. A very remarkable relation has been shown to exist between this moth and the plant. The yuccas are lily-like plants, of which the Spanish bayonet is an example. The stamens are so placed that the pollen cannot get into the tube of the stigma without artificial aid. The plant is sterile without the moth, and the larvæ of the latter feeds on the seeds, so that, in fertilizing the plant, the mother moth is providing for her offspring. The female moth (Pronuba yuccasella) is about half an inch long and of silvery white color. She begins her operations after dark, and, in setting about to provide for the future generation, she first collects a pellet of pollen with her jaws and fore legs. She then begins to deposit eggs in the walls of the unripe fruit-pod, using her lance-like ovipositor to penetrate the outer covering. She then goes to the tube of the stigma, which leads into the fruit-pod and thrusts pollen down it, using her tongue to push the pollen toward the undeveloped seeds. The larvæ are hatched and feed upon the developing seeds, but as not all of these are consumed, the double purpose has been effected of fertilizing the plant and providing food for her young. Consult The Yucca Moth and Yucca Pollination, Missouri Botanical Garden Report for 1892.

# The Screens of Life

We are but phantoms on the screen of life,  The reel itself is very far away; And farther, in the cosmic Hollywood,  The actors play.
The phantoms on the screen are moving fast,  So fast that they can neither think nor see; But they are wondering whether like the past  Or worse or better will the future be.
I know, at least, whatever be the gains  Or losses as we speed away, That still for thee and me remains
 A thought of yesterday.

Why should you swear I am forsworn,
    Since thine I vowed to be?
Lady it is already morn,
    And 'twas last night I swore to thee
That fond impossibility.
Have I not loved thee much and long,
    A tedious twelve hours' space?
I must all other Beauties wrong,
    And rob thee of a new embrace;
Could I still dote upon thy face.
Not, but all joy in thy brown hair,
    By others may be found;
But I must search the black and fair
    Like skilful mineralists that sound
For treasure in un-plowed-up ground.
Then, if when I have loved my round,
    Thou provest the pleasant she;
With spoils of meaner Beauties crowned,
    I laden will return to thee,
Ev'n sated with variety.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Steel-Building-Construction

See also Steel frame on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Steel-Build′ing-Construc′tion, a method of constructing tall city-buildings by building a framework of steel to carry floors and floor-loads, and walling this framework in with a wall of light brick or stone work. These buildings differ from, the older buildings in that the masonry walls do not carry the loads of the building. They really are an application of the method of the steel-bridge to architecture. The office-buildings of Chicago, New York and other American cities are the best examples of this new architectural method. Among the tallest of these buildings are the Metropolitan Life-Insurance Building, New York City, 46 stories or 657 feet in height; the Singer Building, 41 stories or 612 ft. 1 in. high; and The Times Building, 28 stories or 419 ft. 9 in. high.

# The New Student's Reference Work/Stocks

See also Stock on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Stocks are the rights in the property of a corporation which those persons possess who have contributed to its capital. Each corporation has a certain capital-stock which may be raised for the purposes of its business but need not be fully paid up. This amount is divided into shares. Certificates are made out for these shares, say $100 shares or $10 shares as the case may be. These certificates are sent to those who have paid up the capital, in proportion to the amount which they have paid. Thus if the stocks be at par, a man who had subscribed $1,000 to a certain stock would receive ten $100 certificates. But the business of the corporation may fall short of expectations; or it may exceed them. In the former case the value of the paper certificates will decrease; in the latter case it will increase. So a stock is rarely at par, i. e., at such a mark that a hundred dollar certificate is worth exactly one hundred dollars. Stocks are liable to fluctuate in value not merely according to the value of the business which they represent, whether a mine, a railroad, a great commercial concern or what not, but according to the plentifulness or scarcity of money which is being invested.
There are many who almost gamble on the fluctuations of stocks. Some buy merely in order to sell; and it is to their interest to bull the stock or advance it in price. Others sell stock which perhaps they do not possess; believing that, by the time they will be compelled to hand over the stock, they will be able to buy it more cheaply than they have agreed to sell it. In the stock-market the former class are known as “bulls;” the latter as “bears.” The mere manipulation of stock is undesirable. The member of the public who thinks that he can compete with the professional stockbrokers is likely to suffer heavy loss. He will do better to make a genuine investment in a stock, with the idea, not of selling, but of getting good interest on his money from the dividends which the stock pays out of the proceeds of the business which it represents. On every transaction in stock the buyer or seller pays one-eighth per cent. of the money which he pays or receives for the stock to a broker. The number of brokers in a stock-exchange is limited. Their seats are property, and may be inherited; but they are occasionally sold to a would-be broker. A seat in the New York Stock Exchange has sold for $88,000. See Board of Trade.
