ES Sitka is the place where the trav-

week. A person going eastwardly
around the world gains the day which is
lost by the one who goes to the west,
and Sitka is the point at which the two
reckonings meet. The Russians who
have iourneyed toward it eastward
through Siberia celebrate their accus-

who has reached it by westward journ-

there, and particularly those from the United

they slipped down stairs, taking along with
them only the clothes which they had on their
backs. The volunteers seeing them demanded
that they should put themselves to work at the
fre-engines. Mr.. Smith said he was an Amer
lean, and refused to work, his reason being
that he wished to run up stairs and save his
clothing. He was struck over the head by mus
kets In the hands Of three volunteers, and thus
forced to comply with the demand. Mr.. Smith
worked at the engine about ten minutes, and
during that time all his clothes and papers per-
ished In the flames with the hotel. Mr.. Van
Wyke was likewise hailed by the volunteers );
replied that he was an American; three volun-
teers drew their bayonets upon him and order
ed him to work. He stoutly refused, and luck
lily his life was saved by the interposition Of
the captain of the company. He lost both his
money.and his clothing, Mr.. Mason was more
lucky than the others. He saved his clothing,
but had to work at the engine. consumptve,
this occasion. The volunteers seized him and
threatened to kill him in case of REFUSAL He
