An Icebere EVERY Six Minutes.

The number of bergs given off in
Glacier bay, Alaska, varies somewhat
with the weather aud the tides, the av-
erage being about one every five or six
minutes, counting only those large
enough to thunder loudly, and make
themselves heard at u distance of two
or three miles. The very largest, how
ever, may, under favorable conditions,
be heard ten miles, or even farther.
When large mass sinks from the up
per fissured portion of the wall, there is
first keen, piercing crash, then a
deep, deliberate, prolonged, thunder
ing roar, which slowly subsidies into a
low, muttering growl, followed by nu-
merous smaller, grating, clashing
sounds from the agitated bergs that
dance in the waves about the newcomer
as if in welcome; and these again are
followed by the swash and roar of the
waves that are raised and hurled
against the moraines. But the largest
and most beautiful of the bergs, in
stead of thus falling from the upper
weathered portion of the wall, rise
from the submerged portion with a
still grander commotion, springing
with tremendous voice and gestures
nearly to the top of the wall, tons of
water streaming like hair down their
sides, plunging and rising again and
again before they finally settle in per-
feet poise, free at last, after having
formed part of slow-crawling glacier
for centuries.

A Curious WoodpiIe.

A unique kind of "woodpile'' is de-
scribed as having been resorted to in
one of the Lead City gold mines. 1t is
composed of timbers about the size of
railroad ties, which are used in sup
porting the walls and roofs of the
drifts and tunnels of the mines. A
narrow gauge railroad brings the logs,
which have been sawed fat on two
sides, to point on the mountain slope
about six hundred feet above the val
ley, and they are then thrown into a
wooden chute about four feet wide
and two feet deep, The inside surface
being kept smooth and slippery by a
small stream of water. The point con-
sidered is that if the logs were al.
lowed to run directly to the ground
they would speedily excavate an enor-
nous hole, besides damaging them
selves, so the lower end of the chute Is
curved upward, and the logs leave it
at an angle ofabout sixty degrees from
the horizontal, and rise from one hun
dred and fifty to two hundred feet in
the air, turning over and over and
finally landing on the enormous pile
already there. A useful outcome also
accompanies this method, namely, the
logs sort themselves in the pile ac-
cording to their size-that is, the
heavier ones, having greater momen-
tum, are all found at the side furthest
away from the chute. - Philadelphia

TO SERVE FRUIT.

GRAPES are placed on a large fruit
dish, with green leaves around edge.
BANANAS are slightly opened at one
end and served on individual fruit
plates.
ORANGES are cut in half and eaten
with an orange spoon. The peel serves
as cup.
BERRIES are usually put in large
berry bowl and served in individual
dishes at table.
PrNEAppLEs are peeled, cut in very
thin slices, the core cut out, and served
with sugar.
OFTEN several kinds of fruit are
placed in one large fruit dish on the
table, and each person provided with
an individual fruit plate.
ORANGES eaten in the natural state,
or with the pulp prepared and simply
sprinkled with sugar, are so delicious
and healthful that it seems almost un-
necessary to suggest other ways in
which they may be utilized

Mohave Silver League.

A large crowd of enthusiastic
silver men assembled in Lakes
Hall last Wednesday night to take
steps leading to the formation of
silver league. I'll. p. Ewing was
called to the chair and explained
the object of the meeting in a terse
and pithy speech. The proposal
to organize a league was carried
unanimously and X. st. Charles
was elected chairman and A. II.
Saith secretary. II. p. Ewing
asled for the adoption of the follow
ing decaration Of principles:
I'VE declare it as our sole object
in organizing this league to pro
mote in every way the free and
unlimited coinage of gold and silver
at ratio of 10 tG l, and we each
and all of us pledge our support TO
every means of p p,omoting this end
regardless of political parties.
1t was unanimously adopted
Sixty names were signed to the
list of membership and as soon as
everything is put in working order
it is expected that it will reach
fully five hundred. .-Mohaue Miner.

THE FOURTH AT HAWAII.

Ar Honolulu, far away in the
Pacific ocean, the 4th Of July was
celebrated in real old-fashiohed
American style.
The Grafton of the day was de-
livered by President Dole. 1t was
an able speech, full of geruine
Americanism. One sentiment was
"This is the great day set apart for
'nobler purposes than twisting the
lion's tail or making the eagle
scream, 1t is day of thanksgiv-
ing; it Is memofiaf~day. Its chief
end is to keep warm in our~~hearts
and to teach our children and our
children's children to love our free
institutions and principles of good
government for which our fathers
died"
Fifty of the rebel prisoners, all
natives, were pardoned on the
Fourth. None Of the ringleaders
were given their freedom, though
their sentences were committed as
follows: Sentence of W. III. Creig,
conmuted from 20 to ID years; I.
4
B. Walker, 30 to Is years; Carl
Weideman, so to Is years; Louis
Marshal, 20 to Is years; W. II. Sc
ward, r. Wilcox, w. II. Richard
and G. L. Gullick, each 80 to 20
years. The fine of $4,000 in each
of the above cases was not COM
muted.

CHARLES A. DANNA has won II
victory that is of as much import
anoe to the newspaper press at
large as il is to Mr.. Danna him
self. Judge Brown of the Uaited
States Court has definitely settled
the question that the writing and
publication of un article in a news
paper alleged to be libellous IN
one jurisdiction cannot be con-
strued to be punishable IN another
because the newspaper in question
NAV have circulation in such otE
er district. Any other view would
enable an aggreived party to select
as many places for the procure
ment of indictments as there are
places where the libellous article
h:as been read, and force the de-
fendant to appear and defend in
all Of them. While the Danna case
was not disposed of bya court of
final appellate jurisdiction, it is an
important step in the settlement

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

THE prominence given to the
Monroe doctrine in Tammany's
Fourth of July celebration has at
tracted considerable comment; and
naturally attention is directed to
Governor CampbelPs point that al
though England is now trespassing
upon Venezuela as he holds, in
violation of that doctrine, she was
foremost seventy years ago in ap-
plauding it.
AS historical fact, the formal
announcement of the Monroe doc
trine was unquestionably due to
British suggestion. Mr.. Canning,
in 1928, during the days of the So
called Holy Alliance, informed Mr..
Rush that Great Britain could not
view with indifference the interven-
ton of foreign powers in Spanish
America. and suggested that the
United States and Great Britain
should make q joint declaration on
that subject. The occasion was
the supposed purpose of Spain's
European allies, especially France,
to assist her in subduing her revolt
ed colonies in the American CON
tinents. Our Government, how
ever, did not accept that proposal
of JOINT declaration, deeming it
self competent to make its own an
nouncement; and such an announce
ment came in Monroe's famous
message.
Thus it will be seen that seventy
years ago leading Englishmen
strongly supported the views Of the
United States as to the non-lnter-
vention of European powers in
American affairs. Governor Camp
bell, therefore, had good reason to
attack the recent intimations of the
British press that the Monroe dcotr-
inc cannot be respected as inter
national law.
But while President Monroe's
announcement had-i its origin in a
British suggestion, the fundamental
principle on which it was based
was distinctively American, and
had long been familiar in this
country. Fifteen years earlier
President Jefferson, writing on Oct.
20, 1903, from Washington, to
Governor Claiborne, Of Louisiana in
regard to Cuba and Mexico, and to
the efforts of the various South
American colonies to make them
selves independent, declared that
"wcs consider their interests and
ours as the same, and that the sub,
ject of both must be to exclude all
European influence from this hem
isphere. We wish to avoid the
necessity of going to war till our
revenue shall be entirely liberated
from debt" Here the essential
principle of the Monroe doctrine
was discussed long before the form
al declaration by that President.
What Mr.. Monroe and his Cab,
met did was to seize and improve
an occasion that Great Britain furn
ished.

BLACKBURN FIGHTING.
H. W. Hardin Is All Right.
The Wall street Crowd Cannot Dictate
to Him.

Silver men in Kentucky are tickl-
ed to death. The conference of the
Democratic nominees and about
100 leading Democrats ofKentucky
with the Democratic state central
committee, resulted in complete
Waterloo for the gold monometal-
lists on the committee, who, with
others, had conspired to muzzle
the nominees, nearly all of whom
are silver men, and Senator Black
burn, and prevent the discussion
Of the silver question in the camp
aign now about to open.
The state Democrats were so re-
sentful Of the attempt to muzzle the
nominees and other speakers in the
campaign that those who had CON
ceived the audacious idea made
haste to back down. The confer
ence concluded with no definite
action.
All that was done was to thorugh-
ly explode the idea that the dis
cussion of the financial question
was to be suppressed or Hardin
and Blackburn to be dictated to by
the Louisville gold men.
Everybody went home with the
understanding that there was to be
a free-for-all on the questions, each
speaker to be governed by his own
| Judgment and the dictates of his
own conscience. The gold men
were badly whipped.
Senator Blackburn spoke to q
big crowd at Winchester this after
noon and whooped up the boys
with ratteling silver speech. He
said that General Hardin, the
party's nominee for governor,
could not evade discussion of the
silver question if he. would; that
after one joint debate with Bradley
his silence on that great issue would
cause him to be laughed out of the
canvass, and that Democrats would
everywhere deWand that he dis
cuss it, even if Bradley should not,
but he knew that Nardin had no
disposition to maintaiha cowardly
silence.
