MISS KNAPP ON ALASKA.

The daughter Of Gov. Lyman E.
Knapp of Alaska is visiting in Seattle,
and talked very interestingly to the
reporters of her adopted land She
is described as a charming Young
lady.
You want me to give you some
thing about Alaska" she said,
with a merry laugh. Well, 1 will
try. | have been there since last
July, spending the winter at Sitka.
Don't look so sympathizinglv at me.
1t was not at all cold Why, the
lowest we had was eight degrees
above zero and that is not so bad.
Sitka is entirely different from what
the great majority of people ina CINE
it to be. We are really at loss for
means to fill in our time The civil
officials are all a nice lot of men and
the presence of the United States
steamer Pinta, with her Jolly crew.
makes us always certain of plenty of
entertainment. Not a week passed
last winter without the occurrence
of some very pleasant social affair in
the way of a dinner or evening
party, and then. you know, we have
a hop every time the ocean steamer
touches in during the excursion
season. But then, in spite of all, l
grow tired, and am delighted to get
back to civilization. l came down

SMOTHERED IN A TUNNEL.

Engineer Rockford of the ex-
press, south-bound, met death in an
unusual manner in tunnel IA, 16
miles south of Ashland. Oregon, on
July 20. Two engines are required
to take the train over the Siskivous.
ROCKFORD had the front engine, and
when the train was nearly through
the tunnel the coupling between the
mail and express cars broke. TWEEN
tv minutes were consumed in making
a new coupling. The smoke and gas
from the second engine blew directly
into the cab of the one ahead, suffo-
eating the engineer and fireman.
1t was decided to back out of the
tunnel and when the train stopped
outside the engineer and fireman of
the front engine were missing.
Search revealed the engineer lying
dead by the track with his left arm
cut off by the engine. Fireman
Fitzpatrick was lying unconscious
by the track, but revived later on.
Both got off the engine to escape
suffocation and were asphyxiated by
the time they reached the ground
ROCKFORD fell with his arm across
the track and bled to death

THE WORK OF A SINGLE DAY.

Figures will give clearer idea of
the extent of the work performed
daily by the Associated Press than
any other form Of description. The
New York office handles daily from
$4,000 to 100000 words, equal to
from fifty to seventy columns of
matter. On January IS, 1891 Ga
date taken at random), this news
amounted to $4,000 words. Of
course, of this mass Of material no
paper prints the whole; but most of
it finds a place somewhere. To meet
the requirements of the service, the
Associated Press adapted the type
writer to receiving directly from the
Morse instrument, and a special
paper was made which facilitates the
handling of reports. These details
may seem of small moment, but they
go to show the pains taken to insure
perfect work. The agents of the
AssOcia ted Press, who are selected
for character and ability, are in
structed to get all of the news, but if
need beto sacrifice the STORY" to the
facts-in word to tell the truth
They are required to treat all politi-
cal and religious events with judicial
fairness, and to omit social happen
ings having an immoral tendency.
We do not find that anything is lost
to thorough journalism by such limi-
tation, but on the contrary much
influence is gained thereby. The
Associated Press enjoys the public
confidence in its relia bilitv to a de-
gree unapproached by any other
organization, and this enhances the
value of the franchises of the papers
supplied by it. This confidence is
based upon an experience of forty
years. From The Press as a News
Gatherer' in the August Century.

MOLAS SES FOR FUEL.

They have used corn for fuel in
some Of the western states, and in
Kansas they are feeding their pigs on
peaches. Now comes the organ of
the sugar planters in Louisiana with
the proposition that the molasses
crop, which does not pay for trans
portation, shall be utilized for fuel
in the sugar houses. 1t is calculated
that one-half the crop would take the
place of about 100000 tons of coal,
which would suffice for the manu-
facture of all the sugar in Louisiana.
That such disposition of the molas-
ses output would be economical is
shown by the fact that barrel
costs twice as much as the molasses
in it, while the freight to market
from many of the plantations is
more than the price received for it on
its arrival.-[Boston Herald.

A ROUMANIANROMANCE,

1t is very pleasant to turn from the
recent doings Of royalty in England
to the very pretty bit of romance
now going on at the court of Rou-
mania. The Queen, who is better
known as a writer of verse under the
nom de plume of Carmen Sylvia, >"
has among her maids of honor
charming young woman belonging
to a noble Roumanian house, who
was a kind Of protege of Victor
Hugo's, and who is the author of a
volume of poems which received
from the French Academy the honor
Of a prize. With this young lady
Prince Ferdinand, heir to the throne,
has fallen despera telv in love, and
the Queen discovered that the maid
of honor returned the passion from
certain words uttered in her sleep.
The Queen, who is poet and lover
OF romance even more than she is
Queen, warmly favors the match,
and the King is not opposed to it.
The Ministry, however, taking a
purely political view Of the affair,
declare that the match cannot take
place, and that Prince Ferdinand
must choose between the maid of
honor and his crown. Thisis proba-
bly, the feeling of the governing
classes; who are unwilling that the
heir to the throne should marry
subject; among the great mass of
the Roumanian people, however, the
feeling is said to be enthusiastically
with the lovers; with the peasantry
especially the idea of a queen who is
also a Roumanian is very popular
"All the world loves a lover" and if
the Prince has his way, and the
maid Of honor becomes his wife, this
little story will shed kind of golden
glow over the generally hard and
very frequently disreputable annals

''Sitka has population of about
1850, divided as follows; 1900
Indians, 200 Russians and $50
whites. The latter do not mingle at
all. The Russians and Indians do,
however, and frequently intermarry.
1t is beautiful place. Looking out,
myriads of islands add to an already
grand view, and to the rear are the
mountains with an extinct volcano
in view. Have we any drives? Well,
no. There is one road mile and
half long out to the point and we, as
a rule, walk it. Oh, let me tell you
of an Indian river. 1t is just outside
of t own, and is the most beautiful
spot l ever saw. Wild and rugged
scenery all around, with immense
trees that rival CALIFORNIA; mon
sters on its sides, while along the
banks are pretty walks. The place
has been artifcially beautified, also,
and rustic seats put in have added to
its attractions.
THE Indians are very ingenious
people When 1 left they were all
saving their property for the coming
of the summer eXcursionists. They
are sharp; oh, very sharp. They
know the curio hunters Why,
things that we can get in winter for
say 81, are held at So in the sum-
mer. They make very pretty bone
and horn dishes, boats and figures
and baskets. l have seen carved
totem poles in stone sell for $50.
Small ones sell for that, too. Some
people complain at paying 81 for the
baskets that the Indians sell, but
they are worth that, for it takes a
squaw fully two weeks to make one,
and then she must work very hard.
"One thing l am convinced Of, and
that is that Alaska furs are cheaper
in San Francisco than in Alaska. 1

kind in me to say it, but it is So

Items We Sometimes FORGET.

Items We Sometimes Forget.
Next to good range good CLOCK
is of paramount importance in the
kitchen.
Keep sharp the knives used for cut
ting meat and bread and for peeline
vegetables,
Folding towel racks set on the wall
near the sink are a great convenience
in drying desh towels and dish cloths
Gliding on silver should be rubbed
as little aspossible; wipingit with a
soft linen cloth moistened with
ammonia is all that is necessary.
When you have spilled anything
on the stove, or milk has boiled over
and a sufocating smoke arises,
sprinkle the spot with salt and it
Will disappear Immediately.
Sometimes the fire will not burn
readily at first, because the air in the
chimney is cold; in that case, burn a
quantity of paper or shavings before
trying to light the other fuel.
Tin vessels rust and are often
worthless in few weeks, because,
after washing, they are not set on
the stove for moment or in the sun,
to dry thoroughly before they are
put away.
Brooms which are hung up keep
their first shape better and sweep
more evenly than those left standing
if they are dipped in warm water
every day, they will last longer than
if left dry.
Ovens will not bake we'll unless
the hues and bottom are clean
When an oven burns on the bottom,
cover it half an inch with clean sand;
If 1t burns on the top, put layer of
sand or ashes over it.
1t IS better to have a special pot
to cook onions in, lined with porce-
lain, or of granite ware. Iron turns
this vegetable black, and it is exceed
ingly difficult to get the odor of
onions out of these pots.
The most serviceable house rags
are old flannel or merino underwear
or old canton flannel. These never
show lint and can be rung out near
ly dry from hot water with losing
their moisture and warmth.
Do not fill lamps to the top, and
do not burn them until they are en-
tirely empty, for fear Of an explosion.
Do not keep them on the chimney
piece or in a very warm place, lest
the gas expand with heat, and thus
cause explosion.
The best silver-smiths advise the
use Of boiling hot water, CASTLE soap,
stiff brush and a channels leather
to clean silver. A stiff plate brush
is said by experts to be much better
than the soft plate in general use.
Silver not in use should be kept in

IDLE WORDS.

Once said,
Seeing two soft, starry eyes
Darl<ly bright midnight skies,
Eyes prophetic of the power
Sure to be thy woman's dover,
When the years shall crown thee queen
OF the realm yet unseen,-
Some time, sweet, those eyes shall make
Lovers mad for their sweet saker'
Seeing tresses, golden-brown,
In a bright shower falling down
Over neck and bosom fair
AS yon sculptured angels are
Odorous tresses, dropping low
Ger forehead pure snow,
Some time, sweet, in thy soft hair
Love shall set shining snare -
Once I said,
Seeing lips whose crimson hue
Knocked the roses wet with dew,
Warm, sweet lips, whose breath was balm,
Pure, proud lips, serenely calm,
Tender lips, whose smiling grace
Lit with splendor all the face,
Sweet, for kiss of thine some day
Men will barter souls awayi"
".
Idly said!
God hath taken care of all
Joy or pain that might befa1ll
Lovers lips shall never thrill
At thy kisses soft and still
Lovers heart shall never break
In anguish for thy sake;
Loves soul for thee shall know
Nor loves rapture, nor its woe;
All is said
Il lula c. R. Dorr.
