ALASKAN EXPLORATION.
An Immense Territory Which Had Never
Been Gone Over.

Been Gone Over.
To the army more than to any other
single agent do we owe the transforms
ton of the Great American Desert"
into the Great Empire of the West"
and it is quite natural, therefore, that
the army should be looked to to explore
the only part of our domain which re,
mains unknown and uneXplored. Dur
ing the quarter of century that has
passed since the purchase of Alaska.
the government has done nothing to as
certain what it had acquired. The
country seems bare, snow-covered and
inhospitable Arctic province of value
only because of its fur trade. This i'm
preston has been proved untrue, and
we are beginning to realize that unwit-
tingly we had made very good bar
gain and got valuable possession. The
mineral, lumber and fishing industries
of Alaska are taking rank as the richest
in the world; and yet it is only with the
little strip of coast lying to the south
east of Mount St Elias that we are as
yet acquainted The territory is nearly
as large as all of the United States ly-
ing east Of the Mississippi river, and Of
the resources and capabilities of the
territory as whole. we know next to
nothing.
For these reasons the Secretary Of
War has approved bill making an APP
preparation to send an exploring expe-
dition into the interior of Alaska. and
has strongly indorsed the measure in
his annual report. The amount required
Is estimated at 100000, and if the OBJ
jects of the expedition can be accom-
plished with this sum, or with several
times as much it will be money well
invested. The work is needed to be
done, and the wonder is that it has not
been attempted before this.--Army and

Counting the Steps.

The limit OF mans capacity Tor
speed and endurance in travel under
given conditions, is o matter of rec
ord; but who has not witnessed the
almost ceaseless activity of a child,
and been led to exclaim, 81 wonder
how far that child has travelled to-
day." A gentleman recently at
tempted to answer this query in an
ingenious way. He had the floor of
his nursery covered with white mus
lin. He then strapped to the ankle
of an eighteen-months old child a
marker" consisting of an linked
pad that made plain mark on the
cloth for every step taken. The
Reading Eagle goes on to say:
The child was allowed to roam
about and amuse itself as usual, and
at night the marks were counted.
There was the almost incredible
number of G, 4S3 marks, which allow
ing inches to each step, made the
sum of the days journeyings 3,A2
feet, or almost three-fourths of
mile.
The child was probably not above
the average in point of activity and
endurance, and its feat was only that
of many another little one whose
mother finds it dropping asleep in
her arms at night before the night
gown can be coaxed over its head,
while the older members of the FAM
lily wonder "what makes baby so
cross and tired tonight?"
The gentleman next experimental
with his boy of nine years, who was
out of school and in a community af-
fording space and attractions for
rambling. He purchased a pedom-
eter, an instrument for measuring
distances walked, on the principle of
the cyclometer used for measuring
distances travelled in a buggy or on
a bicycle. This he managed to get
into the boys pocket, among the
marbles, nails, Irvine, knives, and
other bric-a.brac there collected. It's
additional weight was not noticed for
a few days, and in that time it did
its work.
The first day the instrument reg
istered nine and one.eight miles, and
the boy was at the table for every
meal. The second days record was
ten and three-seveLths miles; the
third, rainy day, seven and one
half the fourth nine and eightsev-
enteenths.
The family was astonished at the
result. and thereafter, when anyone
complained of walk of a mile or so,
nobody pooh-poohed louder than
Bob. One other noticeable result
was that Bob got his monthly pair
Of shoes without the usual lecture on
the sin Of wearing them out so fast.

Sympathy With Suffering.

Unless there be some sympathy
with suffering, there will be nothing
done for its relief, and the ties of hu.
man brotherhood will be quickly
sundered. If it Is a blessing that we
are unable to feel the full force of
another's sorrow, it is no less a bless
ing that we have the capacity of feel
ing part of it. And this capacity
usually needs development rather
than restraint. For few who may
greve unwarrantably for their fan
cied insensibility there are multi
tudes who are sadly deficient in SYM
pathy and never grieve at all about
it. 1t should never be forgotten that
all social happiness, all mutual bene>
factions and all true benevolence are
founded on the presence ofsympathy.
