With an attractive reward in prospect.

engaged upon task which is enlisting
the interest of the art community. Two
years travel in Europe, with $1,000 a

conditions are the solution of a most
difficult problem in architecture and the
passing Of a successful examination on

ALL SOLID.

1t is an excellent indication of the solid
business condition Of the country, says
the Chicago Journal, that the recent
failure OF Jim" Keene did not precipi.
tate panic, nor hardly even shake the
market. The failure of Jay Cooke
brought on. the panic Of 1873, and that
OF the Ohio Life and Trust Company
brought on the panic of 1857. Keene's
failure was as striking an event as seither,
considered in itself, butt did not create
more than momentary furry in prices.
The country is pretty solid.

be closely watched by persons who still
believe that Alaska is rich in the
precious !, g s,s metals. Il is surmised by some
thai the reports of its mineral sterility
were circulated to keep the territory in
obscurity until a careful investigation
can be made in the interest of capitalists
who wish to seize its richest treasures.
Lieut. stoney found year ago that the
Putnam River is navigable at lesat fifty
miles, and he is steering for the mouth
Of that stream, intending to ascertain
the true character and value of orr
Alaskan possessions before he turns the
