A1askas Fur pradnet.

The following particulars regarding
the fur resources Of Alaska are given
by Ivan Petroff, special census agent
for that territory: The land furs ex-
ported at present from Alaska consist
of the skins OF bears, both black and
brown; foxes of three or four different
species, including the most valuable
among them, the silver or black fox.
and another kind, known as the blue
fox; the land otter, which inhabits all
the rivers and streams; the marten or
Alaska sable; the beaver; the mink,
and the musKrat, to which must be
added few pelts of the lynx, wolf,
and wolverine. The pelagic furs con-
sist of two kinds, the sea otter and fur
seal. OF these fur-bearing animals
the fur seal is by far the most import
ant constituting 80 far as explored and
known fully one half of Alaskas natur-
oil wealth and resources. The value of
fur-seal skins shipped from the terri
tory and sold in the London markets

why the Law win Take Its course

Allegheny boasts two "Jack the Ripper"
dogs. They are the property of a very
charming young lady. For some months
they have been developing their murderous
propensities, and much as it grieves their
lair mistress she has decided to let the law
take its course with them. They are very
clever dogs, and many of the brother and
sister dogs now owe their position in the
happy hunting grounds to their efforts.
They are ''pals" in the numbering bust
ness, and slick ones too. The smaller one
Is the decoy, and when he sees strange
dog near the yard he wanders out and
wags his tail and shakes his head and uses
every possible means to gain the confidence
of the strange cur and become chummy
with him.
He seldom fails to accomplish his object.
and when success crowns his efforts he en-
tlces the victim into the back yard Once
there the other dog-an immense one-sets
upon him and takes his life in the most
fendish manner. The poor unfortunate is
literally torn to pieces and his remains are
scattered over the entire yard. The young
mistress has always grieved over the de-
pr;ivity of her dogs, but not until recently
has she decided to let the law take its
course. The decision is the result of a
strike on the part of her little brother,
who declares that he will no longer OFF,

The Earliest ChiId,s BooIk.

AS might be supposed, the earliest book
that is assigned to the child is the Latin
grammar. Boys Latin grammar for
several centuries were mere text books
compiled from the larger works of Dona-
tus and Priscian, and they were COM
monty known by the name of Donates
or Donets, term which occurs in Piers
"Plowman." The word grammar, on
the contrary, was used more in coniunc-
ton with Latin studies generally, und
science, as well as even magical power,
was sometimes spoken of as grammarye.
A very commonly used school book in
monasteries seems to have been the

least a fragment would most probably
be found even in the most meager con
vent library
The earliest book in existence written
expressly for boys is here stated to be
Aldhelm's 'tDe Septenario, de Metris,
A1nigmatibus, &C Pedum Regulis. .
which probably appeared about: the end
OF the Seventh century. A great part
of it consists of dialogues between teach
er and pupil, in the style which was still
popular in the first half of the present
century, and may be found in such
works as Mrs. Markham's History. The
Venerable Bede is also claimed as a
writer for the young.-London Saturday

Grandma's Cure for Dandrur.

I'VE often scof at the ancient grand
mother remedies" said an up town ply
sician the other day in conversation with
patient, 'sbut our forefathers used to
get power of comfort from them, never
theless, and cheaply too. Science has
progressed wonderfully, of course, and
we are much better off on the whole now
than were our sires, but we forget a
great many of the little things. Now
notice that you are troubled with dan
druff, and I'll wager that you have spent
many dollars on different alleged cures,
and you are worse off now than when
you commenced. Let me give you a
grandmother prescription that never
fails. Go to drug store and buy five
cents worth of salts of tartar. Dissolve
half of it in warm water and wash the
head thoroughly. Repeat this at inter
walls of three months for year, and you
won't be annoyed with dandruf any

Improvemeht in Teeth Pulllng.

Perhaps no other branch of the "healing

Peculiar humanity runs in streaks On

The Newest ThIng i'm RefrIgeratiou.


The latest elaboration of the refrigerac
tion process is a new thing entirely. A
plant has just been established near Wash.
ington market from which there is to be
supplied current of cold that will chill
all the refrigerators in the stalls of the
market-oyer 300 in number. One of the
men who have worked for some years to
perfect the scheme has said: ,"The com
pany proposes to do what the great steam
distributing companies are doing, with a
difference. What they are doing is to dis
tribute and sell plus units of heat What
we are doing is to distribute and sell minus
units of heat"
The only sense in which this is new is
that it is done on a larger scale than ever
before. 1t is like applying the principles
of the telephone to the long distance tele.
phone. As has been already explained. the
idea of refrigerating an icebox or house
is not new. The idea of doing it. from a
central plant, and supplying minus heat OF
positive cold through pipes is new. 1t does
away with the handling of ice at each box
owned by customer, and enables the
butchers and other dealers in the market
to keep their wares as long and as well as
If they were packed in ice. In one up town
hotel, where the plan has been in opera
ton for nearly two years, the saving has
been found to be over IS per cent of the
former cost. It is distinctly one of the
great steps forward in modern progress

The Temple of the Revolution.

Not every one will understand what is
meant by the locating of the site of the
Temple of the Revolution at Newburg
on the Hudson. When the American
army was cantoned near Newburg in
1888 there was deep discomfort among
both officers and men because they could
not get their pay. On March IL, 1888,
circular was secretly distributed in or
der to bring about somewhat seditious
meeting at what was called a temple, a
little log building newly erected there.
General Gates was thought to be at the
bottom of the movement. by which it
was intended that the army should
arouse the fears of congress and the peo-
pie and thus get better treatment. The
meeting was fully attended. and Wash
ington made an address SO patriotic and
nrln IN behalf of patience and loyalty
that the result was series of resolutions
promising all that Washington had
cOunseled.- New York Sun.

IN A LITTLE WHILE.

In a little while. when shall lie
With my face upturned to the bending sky,
I shall not hear the wind and rain
Beating against the window pane,
shall not sit as / sit tonight;
And watch the changefuI embers bright,
And sigh as think of the fading years,
And the cherished hopes that were drowned in
tears. 81
In a ittlo while, when the grass shall wave
It's plumy length DER my lonely grave;
When the sun shall rise. and the sun shall set.
And none will murmur fond regret
Then shall not hear the wild birds song
Nor heed the hum of the busy throng
Who pass me by as lie at rest,
With tired hands folded over my breast.
In a little while. when life is done,
And stand before the great white throne,
Whose radiance blinds my poor, weak sight
As darkness yields to the morning light
Will rest come then to heart and brain,
And ease quick follow on haunting pain
Shall know at last in my quiet bed
Rest only comes to the shadowy dead2
shall not heed when the coffin lid
Is closed, and the form within is hid
From the careless gaze of the careless crowd
Who idly chatter in accents loud.
shall not heed the sods that lie
Between my face and the summer sky;
i shall only know that tomorrow,s sun
Wakes me no more. Life's work isd done.

Age Not the Cause of Gray Hair.

The members of a family in Washing

years; while Mrs. Sally Davis, of Ken

authority on the hair, as possessing soft.
brown. silky locks without a silver
thread among them when over seventy
years of age.
That hair usually becomes gray as we

causes for this change must evidently
