The Alcoholic Vice in Alaska.

4 historian Of the MOgul dynasty Of

opium habit Of his subjects by the total
destruction of poppy plants throughout
his dominiOns, III the hope of thus saving
at least the rising generation, since he
had given up the attempt of reforming
confirmed poison eaters. The alcohol
vice, too, Is apt to perpetuate itself from
the smallest remaining germs, and rad
ical measures alone can achieve deliver
anca from its evils. Some twenty years
ago tho American and British govern
mcntS made simultaneous effort to re-
strict the liquor traffic among the
ahorirines Of Alaska and the adjoining
territories. bat the root of the stimulant
curse was suffered to remain, and is now
prolucing a crop of new sprouts in a
rather unexpected manner

Every Russian holiday is celebrated by
the natives making an unusually large

thousand or more souls i a>ide the cor

doubtless prove gratifying success
If the weather is unfav5Eable in the
least for such work, the colored wash
women keep the clothes two or
three weeks before returning them -
half "done up" and many pieces mis-
sing. In numberless instances parties
having such work done during the late
cold snap were compelled to demand
the articles fwashed or not) before get

asked by the piece, or IN bulk, an ordi-
nary lot of clothing would be oVerpaid
for 10 price of material and make up"
in less than d month. Owing to the
fact that small outlay of capital is re-
