It is announced that the Yukon
River of Alaska is soon to be made a
highway of commerce by the estab-
lishment on it of regular service
of side-wheel steamers. The first
boat of the proposed line, now build
inc. will run from st. MichaePs
Island, fifty-ave miles from the mouth
OF the Yukon, at which point it will
connect with Norton sound steam
ers, over 1900 miles up the river.
The fact that Alaska has the third
possibly the second-largest river In
North America is not often remem-
bered. The new steamer, the Z. b.
Weare, will establish trading posts
along the river, will trade In all
kinds OF merchandise, and the re-
turns will be in gold dust and furs.
It will carry a complete assaying out

ouires in taking out and testing
valuable mineral. 1t will also take
along a saw-mill to cut timber fol
trading stations. The frame of the

Motto on a Clock.

The following account of the orr
gin OF well-known motto for time
piece, whether true or false, is worth
recording. Some years ago a new
clock was made to be placed In the
Temple Hall. When finished, the
clockmaker was desired to wait on
the Benchers Of the Temple, who
would think of suitable motto to
be put under the clock. He applied
several times, but without getting
the desired information, as they had
not determined on the inscription.
Continuing to importune them, he at
last came when the old Benchers were
met in the Temple Hall, and hal just
sat down to dinner.
The workman again requested 10
be informed of the motto; one or the
Benchers, who thought the applica-
tion ill-timed, and who was fonder OF
eating and drinking than inventing
original notices, testify replied; ~Go
about your business. The mechanic,
taking this for an answer to his ques'
tion. went homeland inserted at the
bottom OF the clock, go about your
business, and placed it on the Temple
Hall, to the great surprise or TIT
Benchers, who, upon considering th'
circumstance, agreed that accident
had produced a better motto thar
they could think Of, and ever since

as Monet certainly does. That there IL
more color Ia nature than the
average observer is aware OF, l be.
lieye any one not color-blind can
prove for himself by taking the time
and trouble to look for 1t. 1t Is a
plausible theory that our forefatheri
saw fewer tones and colors than we;
that they had, in fact, simpler and
more naive vision; that the modern
eye is being educated to distinguish
complexity of shades and varieties
of color beforr unknown. And for a
comparison, take the sense OF taste,
which is susceptible of cultivation to
such an extraordinary degree that the
expert can distinguish not only diff
fefent varieties and ages OF wine, but
mixtures as well; yet this sense In the
generality of mankind, In comparison,
hardly exists. In like manner a
painter gifted with fine visual per-
ception Of things spends years In de-
yeloping and educating that sense;
then comes the man who never In his
life looked at nature but In a casual
and patronizing way, and who swears
he never saw such color as that.
Which is right, or nearest right?
Another cause has been its sup
posed tendency toward iconoclasticism
and eccentrlcity. But In reality,
while bringing forward new discover
les of vibration and color, in many
ways the impressionists were return

Internationally Funny.

The making of jokes has come to
be a recognized trade, but 1T Is still
true that the funniest things are
those that are said unintentionally,
especially by men who feel 1t their
mission to be eloquent. The New
York Tribune brings together few
specimens Of that peculiar form OF
ridiculous speech knows as anti-cll-
max. 1t prevails in India among all
classes, but is especially resorted TO oy
natives who have occasion to petition
Europeans for favors. Thus such
man will say:
"Will the Presence, whose reputa-
tion for justice Is known from the
East to the West and whose counte-
nance spreads JOY among His inferi-
ors. who are as the sands OF the sea-
shore, in number, graclously deign to
take but an instant's notice OF him
who has the delicious honor to name
himself one Of the most unworthy
among the servants Of the Protector
of the Poor; and will the favOrite
son Of the Lord Of the Universe mag
unanimously overlook my amazing pre-
sumption In asking him for the pay
ment of bill Of two annas for hen-
feed?"
The same thing Is not unknown In
the United States. A Florida police
Justice was trying to impress upon
prisoner who was TO testify in his
own behalf the solemn nature Of an
oath. Assuming the most pompous
tone he thus addressed him:
@Prisoner at the bar! In taking
this solemn oath to tell the truth
and nothing but the truth -tale care

How an African King Seeks to Preserve His
Family Honor.
The green-eyed monster has a very
firm hold upon the King OF Mossi.
Capt. Blnger, who has recently seen
him, says that this peculiar African
prince is perpetually unhappy over
the thought that one or another OF
his wives may deceive him. Unfor-
tunately he is not able in his huts OF
straw to sequestrate the ladies of his
household so effectively as Is done In
Oriental seraglios, and he has there
fore resorted to extraordinary meas
ures to preserve the fair name OF his
family.
Capt. Binger says that this gallant
potentate shaves the heads OF his
wives, tattooS tneIr races ufreT a
fashion that is not popular In MS
land, and the more repulsive he can
make them appear to others the bet
ter he likes them. His methods
seem we'll calculated to scare away

might aspire to steal the affections OF
the royal ladies. We may well be-
