THE lNNUlT RACE


n Peculiar People VINO Live on the Coast
Line of Aiasisn Territory.
The Innuit race Of people, commonly
and also corruptly called Eskimes, oeeu-
by almost the entire coast limo of Alaska,
with the numerous outlying islands
from the boundary line westward along
the arctic coast to Bering strait; thence
| southwark to tho Alaskan peninsula,
over the peninsula and the Aloutian is-
| lands, and eastward and southwark along
the const to Mount st. ELIAS, with the
exception OF II comparatively small ter
ritory ut Cooks inlet and also at the
mouth of Copper river, at which points
tho Tinneh tribe Of Indians from the
interior have forced their way to the
coast. Living constantly on or near the
sea, they from infancy have not the
slightest fcnr ~ the aungvrp NJ tic '.crP,
and Mt an early age become bold navi-
gators and skilled fishermen and sea
hunters.
Tho word "innuit" in their native
tongue signifies people, and as such Is
used by them to designate those of their
own race ms our people. Eskimo" Is II
word of reproach and has been given
them by their neighbors, the term mean
| ing raw fish caters. The Innuits Of
Alaska aro physically much superior to
those inhabiting the eastern side Of the
continent, in Greenland and Labrador.
They ARE all of the same race and speak
common language through each local
ity, aud often each village from the At
lantio to the Pacific will possess u dia-
lcct diatinctivcly its own. Those Of our
territory are tall and muscular, not II
few Of them being feet in height.
They have small. black eyes high cheek
bones large mouths, thick lips. coarse
brown hair and fresh, yellow complex
ions. In many instances men will be
sccn with n full beard and mustache,
and in some particular families their
manly beauty is further enhanced by
wearing n labrct below each corner OF
the mouth in holo cut through the
lower lip for the purpose. They are II
good natured people, always smiling
when spoken TO, and are fond of dane
ing, running. jumping and all athletic
sports. Alaska News.

Robbcr Gulis of the Pacific.

"Out on the Pacific coast Il great deal
Of amusement is furnished to people Of
an observant disposition, said L. G.
Gardner of Grays Harbor, Wash, "by
walk along the seashore. For instance,
there IN the robber gull, one OF the most
graceful of birds, which always follows
tho pelican. The latter is an expert at
catching fish, which it sees from IL
great height, diving with the swiftness
of II bullet and seldom missing its prey.
But after getting the fish i'll its huge
beak with the pendent sack it is unable
to handle it readily and always throws
Il in the air, catching it in its pouch,
which answers the same purpose as u
soldiers haversack. That is the gulls
opportunity The instant the fish leaves
the beak Of the big bird the robber
swoops down with the swiftness of the
wind, and before the fish reaches the
distended jaws of the pelican it is snap
ped up, and the pelican is left far behind
looking foolish. Pursuit is useless, for
the pelican is II heavy tiier, while the
gull is one of the swiftest Of the feath-
cred race. Denver Republican.

OSTRICH HUNTING.
Profitable sport That Is Making the Az
rican Birds Scarce.


An ostrich chase is very attractive
sport, or rather the sale of booty is so
great MS to attract hunters The Arabs
give themselves to it with real passion
Mounted ON their fine little horses, they
try az much as possible to fatigue the
ostrich. for rs it is S feet high and has
very strong legs it possesses quickness
of movement which tho best horse can
not attain. 1t has great endurance.
Overtaken by the hunter, it seeks to de-
fend itself with its feet and wings, but
more often it still strives to escape by
night, uttering plaintive cry. In fact,
the ostrich is deprived of the power of
aight by reason of its great size. The
muscular force with which nature has
endowed it is not equal to lifting such
weight. Its peculiar organization has
made it the courier of the desert, where
it is able to quickly traverse the almost
limitless eXpanso.
Tho Arab knows very we'll that it is
the habit of the ostrich to make great
detours about its nest III circle. He
chascs it, then, without ceasing until it
| is almost there, when, worn out, ii sue
cumbs, eoncealing its head i'll the sand
in order not to see its enemy, or in

chase requires eight or ten hours. but it
offers largo rewards The pnmes ara
worth considerable sum, the skin
makes good leather, and the Arabs are
very fond of the flesh. Besides, in spite
of tho fact that it reproduees its species

port and domestication i'll other coun-

coMM1TTEE WORK
How Bryan Will Be Received-Chas.
A. Towne at the BANQUET

William ]. Bryan Is In Lincoln, Neb.,
today, where he will take few hours
rest at his home preparatory to starting
on his western tour. He has had but
few idle days since the Chicago conven-
tion Of last year, but Of all the trips he
has made through the country he has
one which awaits him at the hands Of the
loyal and patriotic citizens OF California.
Judge j. Noonan Phillips, chairman Of
the reception committee. announces that
the members Of that body will meet the
distinguished guest at 9 a. m. on Mon
day, the 5th, at Hazards pavilion. The
committee will first be presented person
ally to Mr.. Bryan. After this the gen.
eral public will be admitted to the pa
vilion, and all desiring to meet him can
do so. Those who desire to meet Mr..
Bryan will be expected to place their
name upon card, which they will pre-
sent to Judge Phillips. He, In turn. will
present them to the silver champion.
Hon. Charles A. Towne. of Minnesota,
chairman Of the Silver Republican Ma
tional committee, who will be the guest
of the club at the banquet, will make
one of those after dinner speeches for
which he Is famous. Mr.. Towne Is one
of the most brilliant members of that
coterie of western congressman who
have established a national reputation
as advocates Of the rights of the people.
The demand for seats at the tribunes
has increased wonderfully. Despite the
number of reservations that have been
made there are still some good ones re-
naming at the club headquarters, on
Second street. The club membership
has increased 400 during the last few
days, and the end Of the boom is not yet.
There need be no apprehension as to
the seating arrangements at the trib-
unes. They have been thoroughly in
spected by the city building inspectors.
and they will not be permitted to become
overcrowded. There will not be the
slightest fear of any accident, for the
closet watch will be kept to prevent any
thing Of the kind from occurring.
The return Of Nathan Cole, Jr., en-
ables the committee to go forward and
complete all of its detailed arrange
ments. Nothing has occurred to cause
any plans previously made to be
changed Everything looks brilliant
for great celebration and royal well
come to the peoples champion. William

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Special Rates to the Transmississipp
Congress-Donatio

The chamber of commerce has just re-
ceived word from T. H. Goodman, gen.
eral passenger agent of the Southern
Pacific company, stating that that COM
rany would sell tickets to the trans
mississippi commercial congress to be
held in Salt Lake July 14th to anyone
who desired to attend the congress at
one regular first class fare one way to
Ogden for the round trip, the rate being
open to arrive in Ogden on the 18th and
the morning Of the 18th. These tickets
allow the purchaser to remain until af-
ter the pioneer jubilee, July 21st. The
fare from Ogden to Salt Lake and return
will be 1.50 additional. This relieves the
organizations Of Southern California
from appointing a.specified number of
delegates in order to get the reduced
rates. The railroad has also offered
free transportation for a carload of lem
ons and sugar to be shipped to San
Francisco for the Christian Endeavor-
crs. This will insure plenty of free lem
onade for the delegates
At its last meeting the chamber passed
resolutions inviting the National Repub-
lican league Of the United States to hold
its next annual meeting in Los Angeles.
July 1898. These resolutions were passed
on the suggestion of Mr.. A. w. Kinney,
and will be turned overto him to deliver
to the league at it's session in Detroit.
July 18th to 18th.
