TIE IVORY MINES OF ALASKA.

A Marvellous Tale Of the Mammoths
That Once Roamed Its Wilds.
This story of an Alaska miner who
was left sick by his companions at a
native village on the Yukon river and
who uponrecovering sought the source
of the ivory with which the Indians
we're profusely supplied is thus told:
Many days were spent in preparation
for the journey. Fish and ammun-
ition in plenty were stored upon the
sledges preparatory to making the
journey. At last all was ready, and
with an aged man who had once made
the Journey thither as q guide, and
Anderson himself as chief, they start
ed early in August of last year.
After two weeks of most perilous
journey, during which they had passed
within the Arctic circle, they reached
the spot. There is not space to de-
tail the Incidents of the passage, but
1t Is enough to say that 1t was made
up of dangers and perilous encounters
with bears and difficult crossing OF
seams and riffs and hummocks in the
ice and snow. At last they arrived
at the foot of mountain,
rs near as Anderson can estimate,
about twenty-five miles from the
Yukon river by the most direct route.
Here the ancient guide called q halt,
and parties ere told eff to prospect
about in search of the spot. Ander-
son went with the ancient, and it was
their good fortune upon the second
/ day to come upon the spot. They had
just mounted big hammock to take
q survey OF surroundings, when di-
rectly in front of them large, square
depression caught the old mans gaze,
! and he cried, "Hal-kwa-seel" "There
| it isl"
The descent was quickly made, and
Anderson was not long in discovering
that the depression was q large,
square hole that had been dug out,
and was now partially filled WITH
snow, packed hard and solid as ice.
1t did not take long to have the ex-
ploring party upon the scere and hard
at work. In the course OF several
days the depression had been cleaned

ROYAL Deaths Always Sudden

Royal Deaths Always Sudden
"Monarchs may die, but they may
never be ill" is an old Turkish pro-
verb which is brought home with pecul-
lar force in connection with the recent
demise OF Khedive Tewfk OF Egypt,
Scarcely any one, either in Euorpe or
even in Egypt Itself, was aware that
the Pasha was i'll before his death
was announced.
= is curious that each OF his prede-
cessors is stated to have died in an
equally sudden manner, and there is
suspicion of Oriental mystery sur
rounding the deaths OF these men,
who but a day prior to their decease
were popularity regarded as full OF
Vigor and health.
Thus no one knew that Said Pasha
had been i'll until he had been dead
for two days, while his predecessor,
Abbas, the namesake of the present
Khedive, was driven in closed car
riage, but in public view, through the
streets of Cairo after having been
strangIed in his harem by order of the
Sultan. 1t vas only when his corps
had reached the citadel that his death
''from sickness" was announced.-N

Decadence of the Habit OF Hoard
Ing Vast Sums OF Money.
The ancient oriental passion for
boarding appears, from f. c. Harri-
sons elaborate article on the circu-
lation of the rupee in the Economic
Journal Macmillan, to be gradually
disappearing, and is now believed to
be mainly confined to the old wealthy
families and princes, The original
cause, fear of civil tumult, has passed
away, and the presence of an in
creasing market for investment, the
sweet simplicity OF the 4-per-cents, or
family misfortunes, sooner or later
have the effect of employing the family
vault. Notable instances of the dis
sipation of large boards have occurred
in recent years. The maharaja OF
Gwailor, a Mahratta chief, lent the
government upward of 80, 900, 600 ru-
PEGS, OF which all but 3,OOO,-
900 were native coin. The NAH
araia of Burdwan's accumulation
principally OF Slcca rupees mas
disappeared in litigation and in
vestment, and recently large boards
of Arcot rupees from Madras and
Chilki rupees from Kashmir have
passed into our mints. In Bengal
several considerable boards of sicca
rupees have been found to exist in the
houses of wealthy landholders on the
occasion OF their property passing in
to the control of the Court of Wards.
Mr.. Harrison estimates the annual
quasi-permanent disappearance Of
government rupees due to this cause
as now less than 100000, and
would put it even lower if there were
not reason to believe that in south
ern India the priestly trustees OF tenn
Piles still accumulate the offerings o.
pilgrims.

Of people from Arizona, New Mexico,
Southern Colorado and Utah are rushing
into these fields. The excitement is
unparalleled, and towns along the
Denver g. Rio Grande, both in Southern
Colorado and New Mexico, are almost
depopulated. Nearly 5000 people are
already upon the scene, and the new
diggings are said to have made pro-
prietors wealthy in day.
II was for some time matter OF CON
lecture as to the exact location Of these
remarkable placer mines. Investigation
makes them most accessible from Dtl-
range and Dolores. II is said the Den
yer & Rio Grande is already surveying
line and tons Of provisions are being
continuously forwarded.
Nuggets of coarse gold have been re
ceived here weighing from 10 to 10
ounces, and are similar to those discoV-
cred in the California gulch at the time OF
the Leadville excitement.

vorED the DEMocRArIo TICKET

And Now the Young Mems Republican
Club Wants to Gust Three of its Menu
bers. g..
There was q racy meeting of the
members of tho Young Mems Republic
can Club last Friday night when the
club came to take up the cases of three
members who, it is alleged, voted the
Democratic ticket at the last general
election. These members were Harry
Bucher, the photographer; George
Moore and Calvin Wier. 1t is said that
Messrs. Bucher and Wier made no CON
cealment of voting the Democratic
ticket and that the members of the club
were informed by the young men them
selves.
As soon as the meeting was called to
order last Friday night, it is said that
several Of the members Of the club
wanted to expel the trio at once, but
this was considered too hNsty action by
the older members and they voted TO
postpone the cases until the second
meeting in January, IN order to give the
young men time to repent of the course
they had taken.
As soon as Wier heard of this action,
ii is said, he stated that it would be an
honor to be expelled from the club
While it is believed the other two mem
bers entertained similar feelings they
did not express them openly,but did moi
trouble themselves about the clubs
actions. One thing is certain, they en-
terrain very little expectations of en-
tering the club again, and care little
what disposition the club makes o.
| them.

The colored boy takes the situation very

weeps all the time. 1t is thought that
they have placed the distractions on the

as to which county tile act was com
mitted in, as it is very near the Kent.
