QUITE a sensation was caused in Halle.
hurst recently by the bringing in of J.
Z. Robertson, much published of late as
the noted horse thief and desperado. He
went to the home of Rev. j. j. Green, a
Baptist minister living ten miles west
of town, gave himself up and claimed
protection. Mr.. Green brought him in
and turned him over to the Sheriff.
Robertson is smoothfaced, cookbook
ing young man, and would hardly be
taken for the hardened criminal he is
reported to be. He is wanted in several
counties in Southern Mississippi on the
charge of horse-stealing. Two or three
times of late he has been captured, but
each time made his escape. About a
month since, while resisting arrest, he
was shot and dangerously wounded by
the Sheriff of Jones County. Wounded
and bounded down by officers, he deemed
it best to surrender and stand trial.

WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-A bulletin from
the census office upon the census of Alas
ka is composed entirely of brief introduce
tory statement from Superintendent Por-
ter. and letter from special agent PetrOtf,
describing his inexperience in organizing
a force of enumerators for his district.
There are no statistics of any kind. Super
intendent Porter says: "The general and
special schedules used in this investigation,
cover the following subjects: First, white
and civilized population; second, native
populations; third, churches; fourth,
schools, caEneries and fishing; sixth, trade
and commerce; seventh, gold and silver
mining; eighth, coal mining.
''The enumerati on of Alaska is nearly
completed, but the returns have been re-
ceived only in part, and those from several
interior districts cannot be obtained until
next spring. The accompanying letter is
issued in order to show the obstacles in
the way of pursuing this branch of investi-
CATION"
Mr.. Petroff's journey in Alaska foots
up about II 900 miles, and the distances
which had to be travelled by his assistants
would probably be four or five times
greater The superficial area Of the terri
tory is estimated at $4,000 square miles.
Mr.. Petroff's letter is more like an enter
tanning story of an adventurous explorer
in new country than an official report of
a man bent upon statistics of population,
manufactures and farm mortgages. He
was often obliged to depend upon the
waters and the woods for his food, and for
shelter upon his own devices.
Immediate relief by using Preston's

i. Save part of your weekly earn

2. Buy nothing till you can pay 70,
it, and buy nothing that you do no,

A young man who has grit enough
to follow these rules will have taken
the first step upward to success 10
business. He may be compelled to

smaller house than some of his Young
acq"a'ntances; his wife NAV not

In silk or satin just yet; his children
may not be dressed as dolls or popin-
jays: his table may be plain but
wholesome and the whiz ST the beer
or champagne cork may never be
heard in his dwelling: he may have to
get along without the ealiest fruit or
vegetables: he may have to allure
the club-room, the theatre and the
gambling hell, and to reverence the
Sabbath day and read and follow the
precepts of the Bible ins,ead;-but
he will be the better off in every way
for this self discipline. Yes, he NAV
do all these without detriment to his
manhood, or health, or character.
True, empty. headed folks may sheer
at him and affect to pity him; but he
will find that he has grown strong
hearted and brave enough to stand
the laugh of the foolish. He has
become an independent man. He
never owes anybody, and so he is no
mans slave. He has become i
master of himself, aud a master of
himself will become leader among
men. and prosperity will crown his
every enterprise.
Young man! Life's discipline and
life's success come from hard work
and early self denial; and hard earned
success is all the sweeter at the time
when old years climb up on your
shoulder and you need propping up.
