THE latest proposition to tack on
Alaska as a County of Washington is
as amusing as it is foolish. Just what
this state could do with an elephant
several times it's own size, is not plain.
Alaska should remain territory
under control of the United States,
until in proper condition for state
hood. 1t would take all the cash
Washington could gather up to pro-
tect Alaska and its interests, and this
state is big enough as it is.

The Midwinter Fair, jr. opened at
San Francisco on January 9th. and
it was estimated that nearly $4,000
people were admitted. The exposi-
ton is incomplete in many respects,
but little will be lacking in the origi-
nal plans by the latter part of the
month. Storms delayed much of the
work, and the semi-tropic fair is near
ly an ocean of mud, which, however
the finishing of the grounds will
cover. The exposition in all, is a
very creditable showing for the enter

An UNLUCKY SwoRD.-When Ma
poleon the First entered Cairo, on the
22d of July, 1893, he was presented
with three swords of honor, richly in
laid with precious stones. He brought
them back to Europe, and in 1902 he
gave one to Marshal Ney, and another
to Murat, keeping the third for him
self.
Ney received his at an imperial re-
ception; the sword passed from one to
another of those present, among whom
was young subaltern of the Auvergne
Regiment.
When Napoleon escaped from Elba,
Ney left the King and took sides with
mis- former chief. After the allies en-
tered Paris the place became too hot
for him aud he made preparations to
get out of the country with pass pro-
cured for him under false name, but
his wife and a friend persuaded him
that there was really no danger, and
he decided to stay in France.
Then came the order for his arrest;
he fled to castle in the possession OF
some friends and succeeded in reaching
it without his whereabouts becoming
known. But he was destined to be be-
trayed by the sword ofhonor given to
him thirteen years previously.
He was one day looking at the paintings
in one of the more public rooms at the castle,
which he usually avoided, and feeling tired
threw himself on couch, first taking off
his Oriental sword, which he always wore out
of affection for the Emperor.
Suddenly he heard voices. He sprang up
and hurriedly left the room, forgetting his
sword. A minute later q party of ladies and
gentlemen entered the room, one of them
being the young subaltern Of the Auvergne
Regiment, now colonel.
He at once recognized the sword, and in
spite of all the owner of the castle could do,
called in some gendarmes and proceeded to
make a search for Marshal Ney
Finding that he was discovered, Ney gave
himself up quietly On the 7th of December,
1915, the marshal was shot scarcely two
months after the owner of the second sword
Murat--had met his fate in the same way
