A MATTER OF MINUTES.

One of our contemporaries in a recent
issue contained an article on the greatness
of this land of ours. Among other state
ments, one ls designed to prove that
England is not the only country which
can boast that the sun never sets on her
domains. Our contemporary Ga western
paper by the way and published in a
metropolis) remarks that we can make
the same boast, because when it is p. m i.
at the Attn island, the extreme point of
the Aleutian group, it is is 9:35 a. m. of
the next day at Eastport, Me-, and hence
the sun does not set at Attu island till
after it has risen at Eastport. This
would be really interesting if 1t were true;
but it isn't.
The longitude of Eastport is sc degrees
SO minutes west, that of Attn island, fig
ured as west for the sake of convenience,
is 1856 degrees ~ minutes 36 seconds,
Discarding the seconds, Attu island is
1l9 degrees 46 minutes, or hours So
minutes and 4 seconds, west of Eastport.
When it is 9:35 a. ID. at Eastport it is 7
hours and So minutes earlier at Attu
island, which would make 1t Just 1876 a.
m, not 6 p. m. of the day before. The
highest declination of the sun is 20 de.
grees 81 minutes 30 seconds, and at that
declination sunset reaches its latest hour.
At that declination it sets at Attu island
at about S:14 p. M. At the same declina-
ton it rises at Eastport at 4:l9 a. m.
When it is 4:19 a. m. at Eastport it is 7
hours and So minutes earlier at Attu
island, or 500 p. m. of the previous day.
1t seems therefore, that, allowing the sun
to remain at its extreme declination for
eight hours, it would nevertheless set at
Attn island six minutes before it rose at
Eastport. Our esteemed contemporary
will have to select Point Barrow and
m odify its remark to a declination that
ut times the sun does not set on Uncle
Sans domain. In the early summer il
declines to set at all at Point Barrow, the
extreme northerly limit of our posses
sions.

THIS SPRING FLOWS COPPER.
Wonderful Fall of Water In the Famed
kootenai District.


". F. Carson of Tacoma, travelling
passenger agent of the Canadian Pacific,
and G.. Mel. Brown, the company's
district passenger agent at Vancouver,
have just returned from extended trips
through the famed mining districts Of
the kootenai country and report the
creates. activity. notwithstanding the
advent # winter.
The prospectors are sticking a little
closer to the camps on ccoun Of the
snow" said Mr.. Carson, "but other
wise there is rs much work going on as
If there were not from two to three feet
of nOw on the ground. The kOOtenai
is such u wonderful cSuntry that if half
the truth were told Of its mineral wealth
it would not be credited. A recent find
that has excited a great deal of atten-
ton is the discovery of an actual copper
spring, now known as the Red Blanket,
in the LillOeet district, just north Of
Suencer's bridge on the Canadian Pa
cifiC. The water in solution run 80
pounds of copper to 900 gallons. and
10, 600 gallons a day come tumbling
down the mountain side. This is the
only real copper spring that is known
Of with the exception of one in Idaho,
and that only flows 2 pounds Of the
metal to the 100 gallons of water. Will
liam Pritchard Morgan, a Welsh NJ. p,
prominently known in Wales, Australia
and South Africa through his extensive
mining interests, heard Of the Red Blan-
ket copper spring prior to his sailing
from Vancouver with a party of mining
experts for Japan and China, Dec. 8.
He was very much interested in the re-
ports he received Of the spring, and not
only left one Of his experts behind to
make investigation. but is said to have
offered 800, 600 for 81 per cent Of it,"

WHICH $50 900?
Goldsmith, Who Was Burned With His
Wife. Was Insured For Her Benefit.

Goldsmith, Who Was Burned with His
Wife. Was Insured For Her Benefit.
There is going to be an interesting
litigation in New York city over S20,-
600 Of insurance on the life of Aaron
Goldsmith taken out in favor Of his
wife. He, his wife and their three chill
dren were burned to death. His brother,
Louis Goldsmith of Chateaugay, n. Y,
was appointed administrator Of his es-
tate by Surrogate Arnold on Monday.
Goldsmith left two other brothers and
a niece.
The question is whether Goldsmith
or his wife died first. Relatives Of his
wife contend that the money comes TO
them and that the administrator of her
husband will have nothing to admins
ter upon, and they say they will have
an administrator of her estate appointed
shortly to take charge of TIE insurance
money.
Counsel who have been consulted
about the case say that under common
law decisions the law would presume
that the husband, being probably stron-
ger than a woman, would survive the
wife. Decisions which are pointed out
in support of this view were cases where
a man and woman had gone down with
a vessel. 1t was said that there is 10
such case on record with regard to a
fire and that the reasoning applicable to
drowning would not pertain to IA fire:
The proximity Of each Of the persons to
the advance Of the flames, the character
of the clothing they wore and their
physical characteristics, it was said,
would also play their parts. Moreover,
there may he evidence given to show
that the woman did, in fact, survive
her husband. Relatives Of the woman
say they believe they can prove that the
woman was heard to scream after the
husband had been apparently overcome
by the flames. -New York Sun.

TRADUCING AMERICAN FLOUR.
British Millers Go to Great Lengths to
Avoid Its Com pet ton.

Avoid Its Com pet ton.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1l.-As an illus
tration of the unfair and constituencies
methods that certain elements among
British millers are using in the effort
to stop the growing importation of
America flour, United States Consul
fancy at Belfast has forwarded to the
department of State extracts from Irish
trade papers making the broad charge
that all of the American flour is adul-
terated. According to this remarka-
BILE statement the adulterant is corn
meal, which is so finely ground as to
defy detection when mixed with -four.
The very wilderness and purity of our
flour is cited in proof of the charge, for
it is said that as the British millers can
make only yellow flour from Indian
wheat, the Americans must add the
cornmeal, which is of a blush tint to
make their -four white. The consul
says this sort of argument is used with
evil effect.
