SIBERIA LOSES FIFTEEN MILES.

SEATTLE. Wash, Oct. 2, 1s95.-The De-
partment at Washington will be informed by
Commander Drake, of the United States
Fish Commission steamer Albatross, which
arrived in port yesterday from Behring Sea,
that a serious mistake was originally made
in the determination of the Siberian coast
line. The error equals one minute longitude,
or fifteen miles of coast line as determined
and chartered, being that distance too far to
the eastward. This blunder was discovered
and verified by scientific labors OF the Alba
tross and her corps of astronomers. The
mistake claimed by Commodore Drake as to
the Siberian coast being chartered fifteen
miles too far east gives a greater breadth to
the Behring Sea and straits. Figuratiyely,
it will push Siberia back upon Russia fifteen
miles, and the sixty-mile limit sealing zone
will be carried that distance further toward
the Russian territory.

THE GENTLE ART OF APOLoGIzING

Ter sat at a theater next to a lady who
was going in and out of her seat con-
stantly, not only as soon as each act
was finished, but also while the play
was going on. The space between the
rows of seats was very narrow and the
artist was accordingly subjected to
much ~noyan as she passed him.
