Millions of Fish, Hooks.

1t would seem that SO small a

defatigable fisherman through a
whole season-,that man would be
foolish to apprentice his'son to the
trade unless he could secure him a
monopoly Of the entire manufacture.
Yet, combined with the making Of
needles, there is one town in Eng
land of considerable size and impor-
tance that depend almost entirely
on needles and fish-hooks for its well
doing. And it is not until one has
investigated n fish-hook factory that
he is made aware how little he pre-
viously knew respecting the barbed
instruments in question. Their va
riety is amazing, us is the enormous
demand for them The cod fishery
alone draws on the manufacture for
millions of hooks year by year, the
price being about two shillings per
gross.

No Epidelnics in Southern
Dakota.
Ysnk,oE Press.


This is season Of peculiar and
alarming epidenaics in the east, par
ticularly in the great population
centers. Smallpox is raging with
increasing virulence, while diphthc-
ria, scarlet fever and other fatal dis
eases have taken form in many To-
calities. In looking over this SUBJ
ject we are led to note the contrast
between the east and our own locali-
". While. there exists more than
the usual amount Of sickness, it is
universally mild. Colds and ma
larial troubles abound, to some ex-
tent, but there is nowhere any
marked tendency toward the epi-
demic yisitations which are rayish-
ing the east. In this healthful eli
mate we claim exemption from the
dangers which bcset our less fortu-
nate eastern neighbors. The win.
ter has been mild and bainy, the
breezes fresh and pure and the sur
beams on US uninterruptedly day
after day, perneatins the atmos
phere with it's health giving heat
Itscarcely seems possible for epi
denies to gain a foothold under
snch circumstances.

le quilting at the Executive
Mseion yesterday was the most en-
joy ble event ever witnessed in
Frnkfort. At least a thousand
pelDlas partook Of the right royal
ksstncky cheer and participated in
the tejuvenating reels and jigs.
ThR vas for a fact the governors
own frolic, and Mrs. Blackburn
sto9d off and lent every whim and
fan3 an approving smile. The
a0s NOR was IN town and the man
sim blossomcd like rose.
re was not sennblance Of con-
~ conventionality, aud every
one entered into the joys Of the eve
ning in a hearty Kentucky way,
and the quilt was actually finished
in the presence Of the guests hy the
young ladies' and gentlemen. 1t
was Of fine lavender silk and beau
tiful, and when the gaslight fell full
upon it, the sheen was like the
waves of deep Galilee under the
starlight Of the oriental sky.
The young ladies were dressed
most pictursquely in full figured
calicoes of ancient 5ut, with banked
and powdered hair, crowned with
huge black onmbs.
Miss Dorsie Stanton appeared in
a dress worn by her great-grand-
mother 100 years ago.
Piquant Miss Polk was the focus
of all eyes in her quaint and beau
tifully becoming Mother Hubbard
costume. Her beanty and bewitch-
cry and double shuttle. darkey
dances set everybody wild With de-
light She was too-too cute.
The old darl;ey fiddlers took their
places in the corner at the proper
time and the reels rolled son till
midnight. The most interesting
feature of the evening was reel in
which Mrs. Blackburn, Miss Black
burn, Miss Polk, Misses Sayre and
Stanton took part. and in the VISA
Wis line we're such young men as
Gov. Blackburn, DR.. c. G. Graham
Of Louisville, Senator Blaine of Lin
coin county y Col. Jake Rice Of Law
renee, Representative May, Repre-
sentative Bailey OF Shelby. and 9TH
cr lad-da-dahs. Mr.. Graham had
not danced before for eighty years.
He is now ninety eight years of age,
and it is wonderful how he cut the
pigeon wing"
The supper was in keeping with
thc-spirit Of the occasion. Sixteen
'possums and four pigs smoked on
the festal board. Other delicacies
were in abundance. Apple toddy
was measured from a fathomless
punch bowl.
Later on candy pulling engaged
the attention of the young folks, and
they all got stuck on the strength
of it. 4.
The reception lasted from 4 o'clock
in the afternoon until II Mt night,

officers, and great number of

just touching ground rendering it
impossible to help herself. 1t is not
known how long Tie little girl was
held in this excruciating position
till death relieved her of the suffer-

time the other two girls became. un-
easy and started in quest Of the alb

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT
..t .'-- ALASKA.

Rev. Sheldon Jackson, d. b., leader
in the home mission work of the Presby,
terrain church, gives interesting and val
liable Information concerning the present
condition of things in Alaska. He says
that THAI country comprises an area of
$50, 107 square miles. II extends from
north TO south as far as from Maine 10
Florida, and from east to west as far as
from Washington to California. It's area
is nearly one-sixth of that OF the whole
United States. II has coast line of 25,-
600 miles, "lwo and q
half times more than the
Atlantic and Pacific coast lines of
the remaining portions of the United
-States'; enough to belt the globe if ex-
tended in n straight line. 1t has islands
enough to make state as large as Maine.
It has the highest mountain peaks, the
great volcanic system and the great
glacier region of the country. 1t
abounds in hot springs, and hos one of
the largest rivers in the United States,
the Yukon being so wide that in some
places ono cannot see across il.
Alaska is rich in material resources,
the chief Of which is fur supplies; also
fish, lumber and minerals. The climate
is marked by an arctic winter and 9
tropical summer. AT 6ilka the mean
Temperature is "a degrees in summer
and 80 degrees in winter. The annual
rainfall is about eighty one inches. The
/ mild lclimate is due to The warm j par
current in the Pacific. -
Thu population is about 81 ,3e5, oI
whom about $4,000 are supposed to bC
Esqrnmaux. In addition to the above
there are about 1900 whites in south
eastern Alaska, manly traders and
miners In 1867 this country became 1
part Of the United States, and the school:
sustained by the Russian Fur company
were disbanded. The U. S. government
however, has done almost nothing tC
i supply their place. Something ha:
been done through missionary effort by
the Eresbyterians. At Sitka, the at
tendapee at the mission school is com
pulsSry. Each child has u tin label tied
arou hd his neck, with his number on ii
and the number of the house to which
he belongs, and the police arc ordered

Come Again,

The three national banks OF this city
have all published statements of their
financial condition within the past three
DAYS The First National has deposits
aggregating $315, S3459; the Exchange
National, $3.50, 629.12; and the Atchis0n
National, $1a9, 1852 70, making total of
$S0T, 626.41. The resources Of the First
National aggregate $546, 073. 10 those of
the Exchange National, 500, 2242 40, and
those of the Atchison National, $252,
954.9S, making an aggregate of $780,
27I.21, There are three other state banks
or private bankers in the city, so that
the total resources of the banks of Atch-
ison probably aggregate over So 100000
-Atchisoa Champion.
Atchison makes very good showing
for village of its size and natural ad.
vantages, but Hghea it comes to caroming
on the money center of Kansas it will
never do to leave Emporia out in the
cold. By the statement of the Emporia
National bank, published in this paper,
it Will be seen that its resources aggre-
$3.50, 773 35, and that its deposits foot up
S467 ,24Js45. The resources of the
First National bank are $qS4.0SS.lS and
its deposits aggregate $443,134G0
Thus it will be seen that the total re
sources of the two national banks OF
Empqria reach the handsome figure OF
81 ,434,S6l73, an excess OF $131, 590.52
over the three banks of Atchison. And
then we haven't mentioned the Savings
bank and our two loan companies
which place hundreds of thousands OF
dollars every year. 1t is quite evident
that AtchisOn will have 70 call in rein
foTcenlents if she wants 10 tackle Empo
ria On the money question.
