to Vacate. That this was not the case
was proved by the firemen few moments
after it was observed that the structure
was on fire.
half dozen members of the old Hooks
No. 2 were sent to the roof with buckets
with which to stay the progress of the
fire. When they reached Vhe scene of
their new labors the roof had been burned
through in several places, and clear
view of the interior of the upper room
was to be had.
When the first man looked through he
stopped in amazement and then called his
companions to his side. They looked and
saw a sight that so filled them with sur
prise that the fire burned unmoleeted for
several minutes. There, gathered around
small oak table, were four men, their
faces showing no traces of fear, even as
the tirebrands dropped one by one through
the burning roof to the floor below, and
the cards were dealt once while the fire.
men watched the strange sight
The cracking of the flames brought the
firemen to their senses and they sprang
to their work, and even as they did so
portion of the roof fell with a resounding
crash. Carefully they made their way
over the charred timbers to the spot where
they had watched the game but the room
was now vacant except for colored man
who seemed too much frightened to gath
er up the money which lay in profusion
about the floor and table. The firmen
clambered through the roof and helped
the colored man to gather up the bills
and then they worked on until the great
Pike fire was tapped out
For many a day in the engine houses
that scene was the topic of much CONVEX
sation and to this day it is talked about
by the men who witnessed it, and told to
their friends, who still recount it. That

should have gone down in the annals of
that wonderful and much written-of game

figures show the decidedly favorable In
fluence of marriage upon longevity, the
chief reason for this appears to be in the
fact that the lives of the married are in
a certain degree Selected lives, in that
only those persons are accustomed to mar
ry who possess, on the one hand, a GER
tain degree of health, and on the other an
income sufficient to sustain the new condi-
ton. On the other hand, the great mass of
of the unmarried includes all those per-
sons who, through sickness, bodily or
mental weakness, poverty or lack of
means, etc, are unable to esta blish a fam
ily 1t is manifest that death must reap
a richer harvest among such persons, es-
pecially in the years from twenty to for
ty when the disproportion stands out most
strongly. Without doubt, too, there is the
important influence among the married so
well shown by Darwin, the Influence of
sex selection" which, in it's general bear
ings and excepting purely mercenary mar
riages, has the result that those specially
favored, either in body or mind, are mar
ried, and as a matter of course have a
greater life expectancy, while the homely
crippled, sick, mediocre, indolent charac-
terless, and those deficient in body or mind
mostly remain unmarried and seldom reach
so great an age as the bodily and mentally
sound. In the same way the lesser aver
age of wealth, the inferior method of life
the numerous causes of temptation and
excess of all kinds contribute doubtless to
the greater mortality of the unmarried. of
course marriage brings with it certain
dangers to life and health, especially to
women, but advantages of a married life
which consist chiefly in a regular course of
living, outweigh so conclusively the draw
backs, that Hufeland may well be deemed
to be right when he counts happv mar
riages among the means of lengthenIng
life. The well known declaration of the
Apostle Paul that He who marrieth
doeth WELL but he that marrieth not doeth
BETTER" may well be reversed, so far as
relates to longevity, and marriage be re-
commended to those who wish to attain to
great age.

A Warm Lake in Alaska.
From the Seattle Times.

rum lIl6 Seattle lines.
Dawson City, wonderful as it is in many
things has still another wonder about
which little has been heard. II is an i'm
mense lake, located back in the noun
tains, not far away from the greatest town
on earth the waters of which are always
warm. Fish in countless thousands can
be caught in the coolest weather without
trouble, for the waters of the lake are
never so cold but one could battle in them.
The third claim this wonderful body of
water has for distinction Is that. while 1t
is hundreds of miles from the ocean. and
there is no apparent connection between
the two, the lake is affected bv the tide
Lake Selawik is the name given 10 this
discovery by Father Tosi, a Jesuit mission
airy, who for years has been working
among the Alaska Indians in the interior.
1t was a letter from him that brought
the news to Seattle-news which will ease
many fear when the quantities Of fish are
considered, which practically does away
with the starvation idea This point Is
made in Father Tosi's letter, that should
famine threaten Dawson the miners could
easily make their way to this lake. and
bring back all the fish necessary. They
come down into the warm waters during
the winter from the Icy STREAMS which
flow into the lake. They remain near the
surface, and can be scooped in with nets
or killed with boathooks

the midst of the long arctic winter the In

FIRE UNCOVERED A GAME.
Poker Players Ceased Only When
Part of the burning Roof Fell In

From the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune
A hitherto unchronicled incident of the
old Pike opera house fire, in Sc, was told
a few days ago by the man who. at that
time, was a member of the fire depart-
ment, and who still does service with the
fire ladies. The incident was character
istic of tho times for, in those days. when
the town was wide open and the stranger
could get any old game at any old place
if he had the roll, the fact that a fire
even of the magnitude of that famous
blaze. was not sufficient to interrupt a.
seductive game of draw caused no sur
prise
The like of that Pike fire will probably
never occur, for, with the poor facilities
with which the firemen were then eouin-
ped, and the element of danger which
marked their every step, it has always
been regarded as a miracle that no life
was sacrificed In the conquering of that
famous blaze.
The night was well spent, and the eff
forts of the firemen had been so far sue
cessful as to practically get the flames
under control, when 1t was discovered
that the fire Rad made its way into the
building in the rear, which faced on pa
ker street. Now this structure was frame
and bore the name of sheltering from pub
lie view some of the most talked of games
of poker which this town then had in
plenty.
All through the night lights had blazed
brightly from within the place, and the
rooms were filled with its habitues. though
al times it seemed as if the heat and the
proximity Of the blaze would compel them
