were retreating through their lines (who said
they belonged TO the Eleventh Corps. Quite
a number remained until the rebels appeared

were captured and the next morning we en-

The darting bomb is about the only
instrument still in use. II has sharp
spear-end and is loaded with powder,
which explodes when the spear sinks

darting guns, too, which shoot sharp

on the same principle. The center of
whale traffic has made a jump across
the continent and from the Atlantic
into the Pacific Ocean.
Alaska holds her own in the fisheries
exhibit. The natives are the greatest
fishermen under the protection of the
Stars and Stripes. They still use bone
hooks and all the primitive instru-
ments for fishing. Their fishing spears
are converted into implements of
offense and defense in war time. The
simile touching on plowshares and
pruning hooks do not hold good in
Alaska. There are hooks and spears
in the exhibit which were made by the
Quilleute Indiana when they first OBJ
tanned iron by trade. The natives
made use of the copper which they
found in their mines, and their work
manship is surprisingly good. An
gahgah is a native in Alaska, and his
native heath is near Point Barrow.
He has mania for collecting fish
hooks, and was persuaded by some pa
triotic American to present his collec-
tion to the Government. The hooks
are adapted to hslibut fishing.
The lines are strong, made of kelp,
called Nereocystis lutkeana for easy
reference by scientific men. The
hooks are made of two shank of wood,
lashed together at the ends. Iron
barbs are fastened to the end of one
shank and the other shank is rudely
carved in the likeness of fish. Some
of the hooks are made of sharks teeth,
some of splinters and others of hem
lock knots. The materials used are of
the simplest kind. The iron barbs, or
the sharp teeth, are lashed on with
strips of white cherry. One kind of
line is made of spruce root and is very
durable. The singing gear and the
