the young man. He grew older and more
thoughtful and seldom joked with the
other men.
There cane to the surface moods which
he had not known before. There came
times when his teeth set together like the
clutch of a wolf, as some elemental pas
sion rose from the depths of his inherited
nature.
His father had been a rather morose man,
jealous of his rights quick to anger, but
just in his impulses. Arthur had inherited
these stronger traits, but they had been
covered up by the smiling exterior of
youth.
Edith came up nearly every day with the
major in order to erjoy the air and beauty
of the sunshine and when she did not come
near enough to nod to Arthur life was "A
weary treadnlill for the rest of the day and
the mountains became mere stacks of
gloomy debris.
Som etimes she sat on the porch with the
children while Mrs. Richards. the fore
mans wife, a hearty, laxative woman,
piled her with milk and cookies.

He heard the major calling to him as
he went down the stairs, but refused to
turn back. The tears of impotent rage
filled his eyes. For the first time in his
life he had been trampled upon, and could
not, at least, he had not, struck his as

AS he stood the street corner think

mist of rage to pass from his eyes. he felt
a hand on his arm, and turned to see Maj

straight to the majors heart.

OVERHEARD IN A GALE.
The Captain of n Fishing Schooner
Has u Lively Time.

From the Boston Herald.
Capt. Manuel Cation of the Adams fishing
schooner Sea Fox, just in from the Georges
fishing banks, tells thrilling story of his
adventures in the last gale and snowstorm.
While the vessel was laboring in the worst
part of the gale he ordered the crew to set
the mainsail to work her away from danger
GUS shoals to leeward.
when the crew had cast off the stops"
said the captain, Il reached for the down.
haul to clear it as they hoisted. The wind
just at that moment caught the canvas, and
With a slat it came to the leeward, striking
me in the back, and in an instant 1 was
twenty feet away ard overheard I struck
the water face down, but, fortunately, was
to the leeward, and as 1 came up 1 saw the
craft brcadside on drifting toward me. One
of my men, ramed Marion, saw me disap-
PEAR and quick as a flash sent a coil of rope
spinning after me. His aim was true. and
as came up the rope lay against my arms,
and grabbed it.
Il was soon alongside, but in the worst
Fart of my scrape. The Fox was rolling
fearfully, while the cross seas threw me
around like ball-one moment I would
bang against her side and the next be far
away. The reef tackle soon swung toward
me, and I grabbed It, but I didn't find my
rev hold any improvement. 1 was thrown
in all direc lions. but held on. I swallowed
lots of water and the wrenching I got was
fast using me up.
MY men would have hard work lifting
me up with my wet clothes had the vessel
been a the wharf, as 1 weigh more than 200
pounds, and, excited as they were it was
useless for them to try 1t there. 1 told them
couldn't hold on much longer, and to make
fast a rope and launch dory. After many
| unsuccessful attempts they managed to get
q boat over the rail, but no one came in her
I knew could not get in alone. and shouted
for some one to come in her.
''They hauled the boat back as near as
| possible. and making a daring leap. two
brothers, August and Manuel Louis reached
| the dory, which the others rapidly let drift
| down to me. There was still danger of a
| capsiZe and having three men in the water

| gle, got me In, and we were soon on the
deck of the Fox"

HER OWN MISTRESS.
At the Head of House, If It's Only
Two Rooms.

TWO ROOMS.
From the Philadelphia Press.
"If 1 were living my life over" said an
unmarried woman of fifty the other day.
when 1 reached the age of twenty-five I
should ask my father to give me one of his
little houses, CT which he owned a good
many, and let me go and live in 1t. When
girl grows into woman her instinct
leads her to long to be at the head of her
own home whether she is married or I'M
married. To be absolute mistress, even of
single room in a lodging house, after a
day of toll is often better to her than to be
under the absolute control of her parents
in a comfortable home, and this, even
though there may be the tenderest love be-
tween them. Few mothers at least ever
quite outgrow a sense of arbitrary pro-
prietorship in their daughters. and few
daughters between the ages of twenty-five
and forty can be thoroughly contented in
any home of which they are not mistress,
however patiently and nobly they may con-
ceal their feelings. After forty they are
often so tired as to be glad to be relieved
of all responsibility"

THE ESKIMO BULLETIN.
A Yearly Newspaper Which Is Pub
lished in Alaska.

Although lightning printing
presses, typesetting machines and
swift-penciled illustrators are un-
known there, Alaska still enjoys the
distinction of supporting the most
unique newspaper in the world; in
fact, the only yearly published in the
vast expanse of terra firma that the
sun shines upon.
When it comes to the matter of
penny newspapers, ''The Eskimo
Bulletin" for that is the appellation
of the pioneer sheet, is an example
of due appreciation for the worth of
ready information. 1t costs one dol
lar year, which is, of course, one
dollar per issue of one quarto sheet
of two three-column pages. The edi-
tor and publisher, W. T. Loop, of
the mission school, Cape Prince of
Wales, Alaska, modestly announces
that the publication has been sus-
pended for two years, the last issue,
just at hand, being dated June, 1895.
Notwithstanding this, ''The Es-
kimo Bulletin" has enterprise, such
as local judge once termed enter
prise with vengeance. 1t has a
special from Golovin Bay, dated
March, 1895, announcing in scream
ing headlines the discovery of valu-
able gold mines, which, however,
cannot be worked until the spring
thaw.
The social columns of the Eskimo
Bulletin introduce novelties which
the up-to-date metropolitan dailies
have not yet brought out. A double
headed composition announces the
first Eskimo wedding in Arctic
Alaska, when con September 30, Ne
tax-ite, one of the herders, and Ku-
gik, the kitchen girl, were married
by Rev. T. L. Brevig, of Port Clar-
ence. The groom presented the
minister two white fox skins as q
marriage fee" This starts the col
umn, in which follows the likeness of
a bareheaded Eskimo, seated upon
polar bear skin. He holds aloft q
cup of piping hot tea. This social
scene is labeled becoming civilized. u
Among the fashion notes appear
these paragraphs:
Only ladies in mourning wear
bangs"
Belts made of the skin of wolver-
inc feet, claws on, with suspended
buckles, sleigh-bells and door keys
dangling are all the rage"
"On May 10 Se-ga-yook, having
killed his first bird with bow and
arrow, gave a kisok flour paste,
sweetened with molasses) party to
his companions" !"
The Bulletin has an editorial col
umn, in which a plea is made for
more reindeer and better mail facil-
tiles. Numerous casualties in the
Eskimo world, where natives have
been carried off to sea on ice foes,
and received wounds while hunting
walrus, are noted, as well as the in
terchange of pleasantries and .estab-
lishment of the entente cordiale be-
tween tribes hitherto hostile. -

TRANS-SIBERTAN RAILWAY.
Benefits Expected from This Project
Now Nearing Completion.

Now Nearing Completion.
! Despite the almost impenetrable
secrecy with which Russia has
carried on the gigantic and almost
tinsuperable work of constructing the
great Trans-Asian railway, it has
leaked out that this imposing prof.
ect is rapidly nearing completion,
says the New York Mail and Express.
All well remember the time in 1891,
when the new czarowitz turned the
first sod for the much talked about
ienterprise, Since that time the work
of construction has been pushed
from both ends of the line.
From Vladivostock, the sanguine
inhabitants of which delight to think
that their little town will yet become
another Constantinople, the line has
been carried up the Ussury branch
iof the Amur river. At the west end
;of the line track laying has advanced
beyond Tomsk. 1t has been reported
by unofficial Russian sources that
this longest railroad in the world,
being 4, $50 miles in length, will be
completed in 1897. This is scarcely
to be credited. A study of the map
would seem to warrant the belief
that at least decade will elapse be-
fore the last rail is laid and the last
spike is driven. Though Russia has
talkct.. :,. ll&iy years of this grand
lose project, the enterprise in its
practical aspects did not take def
inite shape until 1891. In 1892 the
car appointed the final commission,
headed by the minister of finance, to
take charge of the work.
1t is estimated by Russian officials
that the entire road will cost $780,
100000 rubles, about one-tenth of
which, they say, will be expended
'every year until the great work is
finished. The road is certain to be
heavy drain upon the state treasury
lat first, and it may not be operated
at profit for century to come.
But the Russians are heartily COM
United to this colossal enterprise. It
lis certain that they have made no
mistake. In many ways its far
reaching results will rebound to
the enormous advantages of the en-
pire. The colonization of Siberia,
the development of its mines and
agriculture, the opening of markets
for Russian industries, the intensity
ing and extending of Russian influ-
;ences in Turkestan, Mongolia and
Manchuria, and the diversion of
part of the trade of Japan and Corea
TO Russian territory, these and other
results are among the ends which the
Russians have in view in connection
with this gigantic railway scheme.
f., As to the future, Russia thinks
that by means of this railway she
will be able to control most of the
European Asiatic trade. There are
facts favorable to this expectation.
For instance, it takes 35 days to
transport freight from Shanghai to
Vancouver, thence over the Canadian
Pacific and across the Atlantic to
Europe. By the more usual route
through the Suez canal to Genoa
and Marseilles, it takes from 43 to 46
DAYS. Now the Russians claim that
from Shanghai to Vladivostock and
across Siberia by rail freight can be
transported to Europe in from ls to
20 days.
In addition to these interesting
trade considerations, all of which
seem quite alluring, there are
