a negro's black skin to cover an ugly

fore they began to fade, and by the time
the wound was completely healed were
as white as the cuticle which the injury

revelation to the scientists, who had, to
that date, contended that negro skin,

A False Light.

All is not gold that glitters-at
least the gold fields Of Alaska are no
such giittering goals OF promise as
the fortune hunters believed. A steam
schooner which left Oakland two
months ago with forty eager prospect
ors abroad, returned last Satur-
day with seventeen of them, wiser
and sadder men. The thermometer
stood at 40 degs. below, and they had
to pierce through three feet of ice to
get to the object Of theirQuest. Hard
ships, suffering and restitution are
the lot Of the miners, and plucky
must they be to stay with it. There is
plenty Of gold there. But those who
are rushing into that frigid and
barren country blindly, and with a
notion that all they have to do is to
step off the steamer and proceed to
gather up chunks of gold on the
shore, are the ones who are suffering.
They are surprised to find that the
gold fields are a hundred miles from
Cooks Inlet, where the steamers land
them, and many are stranded there
for lack of means. Many also have
made the mistake Of going to Sitka
and Janeau, both Of which are remote
from the mines. Alaska is going to
turn out lots Of gold, but it will
not be produced by poor men. Only
the rich men who can afford to &C
about the business on a big scale will
reap any reward.
