The poor ere ures generally seemed unable

it as good j'ke and laughed gleefully when

OUR UNKNOWN NORTH.
AIaska,s Secrets Being Revealed BY
Constant Research.

There are indications that our north
ern possessions, which have heretofore
been practically a sealed book to the
people of this country, are to become
better known to us. The appointment
of territorial officers for Alaska seems
to have already stimulated research
and adventure in that hitherto unknown
country, and there are very likely to be
some very interesting, If not startling,
developments. A telegram received
here from the commander of one of the
revenue vessels in those waters states
that his vessel has just returned from
some explorations in what have been
hitherto almost unknown regions OF
Alaska, and that the discoveries are OF
very valuable and interesting nature.
A letter just received from San Fran:
cisco gives gives some particulars OF
of the arrival of Captain Healey there
from tour with revenue vessel in
that section.
He rescued party of starving miners
and the crew of wrecked whaler far
at the north, saving ninety-eight per-
sons from horrible death. He sent
boat distance of three hundred and
fifty miles up the Kowgat river, a
stream hitherto little explored, obtain
ing some very valuable information
about the country and the people. gath
ering valuable specimens of minerals,
plants and birds. He explored and
photographed large and valuable
island near Bogastoff, captured and de-
stroyed a lot Of liquor which whalers
and Illicit traders were preparing to sell
to the natives and finally made trip
far north to rescue the crew mentioned,
encountering ice worse than any that
Schley found in his trip north, and in
spite of the fact that he was twenty
three days in an almost constant fog,
he dropped anchor within few rods of
the spot he had started to make on
hearing of the suffering crew. 1t is ex-
pected that between the stimulated
spirit of exploration that the appoint
ment of these territorial officers has
awakened, and the reports of these
officers themselves, the people of this
country will get within the next few
months more information about + g
distant country than they ever had to-

Yesterday and the day before we cop

ter IN. " Democrat and Chronicle a
remarkable statement, made by j. B.
Henion, M. D., a gentleman who is
well known in this city. In that arti-
Gle DR.. Henion recounted a wonderful
experience which befell him, and the
next day we published from the same
paper a second article, giving an &C
count of the Excitement in Roches-

ment. 1t is doubtful if any two arti-
cles were ever published which caused
greater commotion both among profess
sional people and laymen.
Since the publication of these two ar
ticles, having been besieged with let
tiers of inquiry, we sent a communica-
ton to DR.. Henion and also one to II.
H. Warner & Co., asking if any addi-

Tears of a Baby.

1 think there is no sadder sight on
earth than the tears of baby. 10 see
the little round face that looks as if it
were only made for laughing, all twisted
up in snarl of Fuckers, the bright eyes
squinted out of sight, and great, real
tears coursing down the pudgy cheeks,
is enough to make stole weep in SYM
pathy. tits as if the man in the moon
were crying. knew an English father
who, whenever one of his babies-and
there was host of them-cried, would
say in tones of comical distress, ''he'd
rather see five-pun note than one of
those tears, any day." and it seemed
to those little ones to be the heighth of
devotion and self-denial on his part.
Mrs. Paddock, writer of Salt Lake
City, tells pathetic story of broken
hearted wife whose first baby never
cried aloud but wept in silence all the
time. Sleeping or waking, the tears
flowed from its eyes, and in a few weeks
it died, its mother said, of a broken
heart. 1t had shed all the tears Its
mother had repressed before its birth,
and its weeping face was symbol of
the face of Utah. In antithesis to these
sad facts is memory we nearly all can
conjure up of some fat, rascally baby
who would cry and cry, and cry until
every member of the family was en-
listed in his cause, when he would sud
