The Prolific Life of Alaska.
q the January Atlantic.

John Muir in the January Atlantic.
Nowhere on my travels SO far have
seen so much warm blooded rejoicing life
as In this grand arctic reservation by SO
many regarded as desolate. Not only are
there whales in abundance along the
shores, and innumerable seals, walruses
and white bears, but great herds Of fat
reindeer on the tundras, and wild sheep
fo> es. hares, Jennings, whistling marmots
and birds. Perhaps more birds are born
here than in any other region of equal ex-
tent on the continent. Not only do strong
wiz ged hawks, eagles and water fowl, to
whom the length of the continent Is only
a pleasant excursion, come up here every
sun mer in great numbers, but also many
short-winged warblers, thrushes, and finch
es. to rear their young In safety, reinforce
the plant bloom with their plumage and
sweeten the wilderness with song, flying
all the way some of them, from Florida
Mexico and Central America. In thus 60
ing so far north they are only going home
for they were born here, and only go south
to spend the winter months New Eng
landers go to Florida. Sweet-voiced trou-
badours, they sing in orange groves and
viz e-clad magnolia woods in winter, in
thickets of dwarf birch and alder In sum
mer, and sing and chatter more or less
all the way back and forth. keeping the
whole country glad. Oftentimes in New
England just as the last snow patches are
melting. and the sap In the naples begins
to flow, the blessed wanderers may be
heard about orchards and the edges Of
fields where they have stopped to CLEAN a
scanty meal, not tarrying long, knowing
Of spring, they arrive In the tundra homes
In June and July. and set out on their re-
turn journeys in September. or as soon az
their families are able to fly well.

Opening-Hungarian Defense.
The sunken Tecumsch.


From the Chicago Record.
I am asked II the wreck of the monitor
Tecumseh, which was sunk in Mobile bay
in 1862 by torpedoes, has ever been raised.
No. the clumsy war vessel still lies in six
fathoms of water, about 300 yards from the
wharf of Fort Morgan. and is the tomb of
Commander Craven and 1O4 brave men. The
Tecumseh led the fieet Of Admiral Farragut
on that memorable day, and. striking
bunch of torpedoes, went down almost in
stantly, bow first. Ten sailors who hap
pened to be on the deck plunged into the
water, and eight Of them. with John Col
lins the pilot, were saved by a boat sent
out by Commander Jonett Of the Meta
comet. John Loughberry swan to shore
and was made a prisoner. He was after
ward exchanged and died a few years ago
at Annapolis. Collins owes his life to the
politeness Of Commander Craven. They
were in the pilot house together, and when
the vessel struck both started for the mar
row door. Collins stepped back to let his
superior pass out first, but Craven stood
back saying: AFTER you, pilot" But It
was too late; flood Of water imprisoned
the commander and he went down with the
ship. In 1870 the government sold the
wreck to Col Jas. q. Slaughter of Mobile,
who contracted to raise 1t and release the
entombed bodies. but he never did go. In
1915 an appropriation Of $4,000 was made
by Congress to raise 1t, but for some reason
nothing was ever done.

CHESS AND ITS PLAYERS

Capt. OFarren continues away in the
lead in the chess championship tournament
at the Washington Chess Club. His near
est rivals aro Messrs. Prender, Tibbetts and
Woodward each of whom he has yet to
play. Mr.. Tibbetts added another victory
to his score, the loser being Crofts, and he
has actually won as many games as the
captain. Mr.. Woodward lost Wednesday
night to Tucker, and his percentage is
much reduced thereby. Mr.. Harris lost a
game to Mundelle, who played in his best
form and Won a well-played game. Thorn
as had good opportunity to win his game
from DR.. Hodges, but was too confident
and lost his advantage. He appeared af-
terward to have draw, but was outplayed
in the end game and resigned after seventy
moves.
Inc standing of the nlaYers is as follows:

nit himself further than had DR.. Glib

At the afternoon session Professor Sc

The prosecution could not draw from
Professor Selafontaine the assertion tha:
the bits Of flesh were human flesh They
might be human, but they might also De

At no time during the day did the de-
PENDANT display emotion, not even when
the big dry goods box with its grueeome
contents of flesh and bone was placed a
few feet from him, near the jury. He
handled the gunny sacks and inspected
with curious glances the bits Of flesh and
bone which were passed gingerly from

his hand tremble or his look of ordinary
interest give way TO pallor or an averted
glance. Innocent or guilty, the verdict
sof all is that Lue.gert is possessed OF

has ever been tried for murder within
the precincts of the criminal court build

MANUFACTURED EVIDENCE.
The attorneys for the defense continue
in their confident attitude, and assert
that when their prisoner is acquitted a
number of damage suits are TO be COM
menced. They intend that those who
have manufactured evidence" as they
put il, shall suffer for the wrong which
they say has been done their client.
The prosecution tomorrow will intro
duce evidence 10 prove that fully 90 per
cent Of the bones which have so far been
introduced into the trial are those Of dogs
and sheep. Then il will be shown that
the remaining 10 per cent are human
bones It will be shown that the dog and
sheep bones were taken from the place
where the bones were usually thrown.
The human bones, it will be shown, were
taken up from the street. The prosecu-

taken to place the human bones where
they could not readily be found.
