BLUE BLoops.
FeunA Among the Rabsa Anarchist
81 Europe.


Strange though it may appear the
most irreconcilable revolutionists and
republicans are those who have blue
blood in their veins. There is in Aus
tria no more advanced socialists than
Prince Alloys Liechstenstein, who Is a
member of the sovereign house OF
Liechtenstein. In Russia nihilism and
anarchy may be said to have been
founded by the late Michael Bakou-
nine, the head of one of She most il
lustrious and ancient houses of the
great Muscovite aristocracy. Since
his death his place has been taken by
the equally blue blooded Prince Krapot-
kline and Prince Nakashidze.
In Italy dukes and princes by the
score are to be found among the lead
ers of the socialistic movement, while
IN France there are few who either
from a political or from an eco
nomic point Of view are more advanced
than Marquis de Rochefort-Lucay or the
duke of Dino, member of the cele-
brated house of Tallyrand-Perigord.
Finally in England those who to-day
profess the most republican doctrines
and subversive theories are Henry La
bouchere, nephew Of the late Lord
Taunton; Hon. Philip stanhope, broth
er of the present earl Of Stanhope, and
the earl of Lovelace. grandson Of Lord
Byron. Lord Lovelnce, 1t may be said.
is not merely theorist, but has put
his principles into practice, working,
like Count Tolstoi, with pick and q
spade, just rs If he were an ordinary
laborer. His elder brother, the late
Lord Ockham. entertained the same
convictions. and, in spite of his being
possessed of considerable wealth, de-
serted club and society and spent the
last ten years of his life under an as
stunned name, toiling as shipwright at
Deptford, where he was renowned
among the laboring population Of that
suburb of the metropolis on account of
bis phenomenal physical strength.
On the other hand, Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain. who while mayor of Bir-
mingham publicly protested republic
anisni, occupies to-day a seat in tory
cabinet, is the declared foe of the lib
erals, and the ministerial fayorite Of
the sovereign and of the prince of
Wales. Then there is Ri. Hon. Anthony
Mundella, whose father was sentenced
to death in Italy as carbonaro, and
who himself was converted from rabid
republicanism to ardent loyalty by
q kindly remark of the prince of Wales
and particularly gracious smile from

MAKE THEMSELVES USEFUL.


Dogs Perform Many Services for the
Miners in Frozen Alaska.
Dogs have suddenly become more
valuable than horses in this section OF
the northwest. This state of affairs
results from the great and growing de-
mand for dogs to be used in hauling
sledges in the Yukon country, Alaska.
While thousands of horses for which
their owners cannot get three dollars a
head are roaming over the plains Of
eastern Washington and Oregon. good
sized dogs are bringing from SIS to $50
each in the local market. At Juneau
their value 10 double what it is here,
and on the Yukon river good dog
brings. from 500 to $50. To the Yukon
miner the dog has become what the
reindeer is to the Laplander and the
pony to the cowboys Of Texas and
Mexico-a beast of service and moet
vll6aUle one. - - =
Every steamer sailing for Alaska for
three months. past has borne north
ward several dozen dogs destined for
service in front Of heavily laden
sledges. They are taken by boat to
Dyea. at the head of salt water navira-
ton. and there put into harness to assist
in hauling outfits and supplies over the
Chilkoot pass and down the farther
slope to the series of fresh water lakes
forming the headwaters of the Yukon's
tributaries. Up to May, when the ice
breaks up, dog teams slide over the
smooth surface Of the lakes with sur
prising srapidity, considering the loads
they haul. There are portaRes to be
made around dangerous rapids, and
here again their services are invaluable.
Arriving at the central parts, such a.
Forty Mile or Circle City, both men and
dogs are put into harness again for the
trip to the diggings.
The sledge dogs are too valuable not
to be well taken care of where that in
possible. Their owners first thought.
in this respect is to obtain plenty Of
food for them. Their food consists
principally of fish, usually salmon.
caught in the Yukon river by the ma
tiyes- An ordinary dog will eat daily
two pounds Of dried salmon. which
equals seven pounds of fresh fish. At
Forty Mile last winter dried salmon
sold at from 20 to so cents pound, and
bacon that was fit only for dogs to eat
sold for 37sx cents pound. In some Of
the larger camps on the Yukon dog
boarding houses have been established.
where the animals are properly cared.
for at from six to fifteen dollars n
month. according to the season and the
price OF dog food.-Forest and Stream.
