Notwithstanding repeated warnings
against the folly and danger of enter
ing the Klondyke region at this season
OF the year, when the rigors Of an Arc
tic Winter are close at hand, the rush
of prospectors into that territory shows
no sign of diminution. Hundreds Of the
men now vainly trying to cross the
passes are threatened with all the hor-
rors of starvation; some have already
become insane through privation and
worry, and the approaching Winter is
sure to witness many dreadful scenes of
suffering and death.
II is unfortunate that the Canadian
Government and our own cannot en-
force some measure of exclusion
against the thousands Of inexperienced
and ill-provided fortune-seekes who
are now rushing northward,' and detain
them until Spring, when the journey
can be made with some degree of safe
ty. In the absence OF such interven-
tion the history Of thenext eightmonths
in the Klondyke region is bound to be a
tragic story of disappointment, hard
ship and death.

ARGuMENTs AGAINST BICYCLES

AftGl MEN 10 AGAlNol DlC 1Cl4Eo.
Many are the doleful assertions con-
cerning the blighting effect of the BIZ
cycle, some OF which may be half
comic, while others are indeed grave
For instance, the bicycle reduces the
receipts OF street car companies, of liv-
cry stable owners, of shoe manufac-
turers. 1t reduces the number o. per-
sons who go to the country to board
because every one saves his money to
buy a bicycle and can take pleasant
suburban rides when he gets II. II re-
duces the demand for other sorts Of
recreation, because many persons pre-
fer the bicycle to anything else. 1ndi-
rectly It has other results. IL reduces
the demand for hay and other sort OF
feed and thus diminishes the profits of
the farmer; this cuts down the profits
of the railroads.
Much OF all this is presumably said
in Jest, but It serves to show how dis
torted a one-sided view of any subject
may be- The bicycle has unquestion-
ably caused a great change in the de-
mand for labor; but ii certainly has not
diminished the demand A man who
spends 500 on a wheel spends less on
Summer board and perhaps on hiring
horses. He hopes to save part of the
cost of the wheel out Of carfare and
shoes. But the hundred dollars spent
for the bicycle employs just as much
labor as If 1t had been spent on horses,
or in Summer board, or for any other
purposes; for 1t takes as much labor to
produce the bicycle as to produce S1OO
worth of any other recreation.

They have a peculiar way of spend
ing their honeymoon out in Indian
Territory. Three weeks ago a young
woman became the bride of Wiley
Ross. Three days ago she was found
about quarter of a mile from her
home, tied to a tree, in which condi-
tion she had been for three days with
out food or drink Mrs. Ross says her
husband began TO ill-treat her about
ten days ago. First he tied her to a
wagon wheel, fired his rifle over her
head several times and then beat her
with a club until she was unconscious.
Later he tied a rope around her neck
and pulled her up to a ioist in the cabin
until he supposed she was dead. After
she had survived this treatment he tied
her to a chair in the house, placed q
large can Of giant powder near her
stuffed paper into the spout of the car
and set fire to it. He then ran out, and
remained away fifteen minutes. Wher
he returned he found that the paper
had burned down to the epou
