negative to this proposition, and hold
ing that our schools are having very
little effect I'm reducing the amount OF
crime and vice in this country. and
they even point to the criminal records
in support of their view, and to the
large number of crimes committed III
Boston and other cities where the school
systems are practically perfect, and
where every one can get a good educa-
ton.
If we examine the criminal and police
statistics, however, as the United States
commissioner of education, w. L.
Harris, has Just done, we will tino that
they make no such showing as is pre-
tended, but quite the contrary. There
are. of course, some educated, as well
as illiterate persons arrested. but the
difference IN the number OF arrests or
these two classes shows how great is
the effect of the schools in the ellmlna-
ton OF crime.
The number of prisoners confined in
seventeen states which have complete
statistics ON this poiut-fourteen OF
them Western or Middle staIes-is no.
53S. and among these the illiterates, I'D
proportion TO numbers, contribute six
times their quota. The records in the
towns show an even greater proportion
of crime among the ignorant and the
iIliterate, for the whole country fur
nIshes to each thousand of persons eight
times as many illiterate prisoners as
those who can read and write.
1t Is plain from these facts that our
schools have already greatly reduced
the amount of crime. and that when we
shall have succeeded in getting rid OF
all illiteracy we will still further reduce
the number of criminals.

belt of its 100000 square mics is located
in Iatitudes south of Denmark and

neither of which has better II as
good a climate as most OF Central ana
Southeastern Alaska.
One little fish story from the Fra.
which by as many as wish can be taken
cum grano sails, but which | take for
cow and all.
Father Tosi said: "At the school sta
ton we have two very pretty Jersey
cows, good mixers and nice little pets,
the first and only cows ever brought SO
far north. Last winter was an unusually
long one. and the poor COWS got very
tired eating moss, scratching grass from
under the snow, and rustling around
generally for living in the severe cold.
they were getting quite poor, until at
last bv accident found means OF put
ting flesh OH them. Standing at the
door of the school one morning, watch
ing the children at play, l noticed
the of the cows ak over to seal
skin line | had stretched between two
poles Oh which were hung hundred or
SO dried salmon, WHICH are always
plentiful about Eskimo villages, the
greater part being used as dog food. l
noticed Bessie try to reach a salmon,
and wondered if. She would eat one if she
had it, so l, to satisfy my curiosity, cut
one off the rope, and after breaking it
gave her half of a good-siZed fish. This
| Rne ate with relish. then gave her
! one other half, which she ate as well;
| and since then the COWS have been fed
so dried salmon, and, by George, they
are now as fat as seals, and give rich
milk.
Three hundred miles to the north of
the island of St. Lawrence, land almost
at the entrance to the Behring strait, is
| located Kings island, barren rock,
which from a distance seems to be prob
ably mile in length, rising $50 or 800
feet above the sea, and has population
of about $50 Inuet Eskimo, who exc out

more than that of bad girl, who pre-
tends to be good, and hypnotizes

two dozen of whisky and one dozen of

there were in my district about $50 lnu-.
ets-men, women and children-mosto OF
whom come to me from time to time for
medicine and food, and | saw much OF
them, and can say that have never met
with better people.
The Eskimo have no idea OF their
origin, nor have they religion. They
are full of odd superstitions, and prac-
tice them on all occasions. The phan-
tom dance is practiced in medicine, and
kills more frequently than it cures. i
don't think thing is known OF the
medicinal qualities Of the various
moses or herbs of the north, except
that during the short summer, when
green shoots of any kind can. be had. It
is well to eat them. The distinguished
feature of the shuman (doctor) is that
he never cuts or polls his hair, and as a
rule is too lazy to hunt or fish. and lets
the tribe to which he belongs take care
of him. All are eligible to the position
of shuman, and many try to be con-
sidered great medicine men by practicing
stupid tricks, pretending to be able to
call up spirits, etc.
Many wonderful stories OF what the snu-
man could do in spirltuallsm have been
told me, but can't be related here. They
are quick to learn the arts of the white
man, and are anXiously looking forward
to the time when white men are to make
their homes among them, and teach
them to live as they do. a. M. b.

the only resort of the polar bear in the
Behring sea. The polar bear is almost
amphibious, taking frequently to the
water, and swimming for miles to sea
in search OF seal or walrus, to be found
on the ice foes, on which it feeds; COM
ing at times far south, but drifting
again north as the warm weather ap-
proaches. Bear are never found IN the
Behring sea country after the ice mas
disappeared, and do not remain on the
island during the short summer.
In the early part of the summer OF
1890 a schooner hailing from San Fran
cisco landed, or anchored, off the island
of st. Mathews, ana left three men
properly equipped and provisioned to
remain there during the remainder OF
the summer and the following winter
for the purpose of hunting polar bear,
blue fox and such other rare game as
was to be found on the island. A year
later / met the only survivor OF the
three. who told me that during the Win
ter the party had seen twenty-one white
bears. of which they had killed four.
Many white and blue foxes were killed,
but the men founu the island so bleak,
desolate and disagreeable that efforts
were made from time to time TO leaVe IL
with a skiff or small scow, with which
they would run from foe to foe OF the
ice irving to make the Siberian coast.
But all efforts failed, and the men were
compelled to make the best of their sit
uatlon until relief came to them III the
summer in the shape of the revenue
cutter Bear" which, sending IN q
yawl OF life boat. brought away the
party. He said that for some weeks he
had not seen his associates, and pre-
sumed that they had lost their lives III
an effort to reach the ASiatic coast by
taking to the ice tloes.
Three hundred and fifty miles almost
due north of st. Mathews lies the
island of st. Lawrence, much larger
island, very similar in its general aspect
to st. Mathews, and having an Eskl
mo settlement of twenty-five or thirty
souls, who subsist on fish, seal and wal
rus.
Between the islands of ST. Mathews
and St. Lawrence, we pass the moutl
of the nightly ukon river, but far away
out of sight of it and near the Aslati'
shore, to avoid the dangerous shoa!
and mud flats thrown out by the con
slant depositing of sediment from TIT
