ALASKA. LAND OF THE NUGGET
WHY? BY I. N. Vail editor of the An

geological and other testimony showing
how and why gold was deposited in polar

gold fields, but none of these present Il
single effort to account for the fact that
such vast deposits of gold were found
in Alaska and other neighboring lands
Here is a book that tells how and why
this metal and others must be found IN
polar lands, both north and south. 1t
is a volume of 68 pages written by a
practical geologist, Californian; a book
of new and startling propositions, which

While admitting a tendency on the

some of the statements made under this

NEWS FROM SOUTH AFRICA.

The Civil Commissioner from the cape

such that niggers have come as far as
fifty miles To get the ''moutee'' Not

At public auction on Saturday and
Wednesday last cows averaged f3l, and
oxen f25. Wagons with donkey spans
fetched from f255 to 1905. Three wagons
with spans of oxen reliazed 1900,
fi50 and f625 respectively.
The question Of the discretionary pow
er of magistrates to order the punish
ment of the lash arose in connection
with the review and quashing of sem
tence of thirty lashes imposed by the
magistrate at Buluwayo upon a man deS-
ignated John Goodman, for theft, Good
man having been previously convicted
of drunkenness. Mr. Justice Water
meyer said that the Magistrate had
wired him that magistrates by being uo-
barred from infiicting lashes were pro
hibifed from imposing the only effica-
cious penalty for offences by natives
thai they had. The Justice said the case
mentioned showed how dangerous it was
to give magistrates the power referred
to- The man convicted might have been
white man, or at any rate a civilized
native. He would not confirm sentence
of lashes unless the prisoner was an old
offender and convicted previously of
similar crimes.

MARK TWAIN AND THE FRIENDLY
COMPOSITOR.
From the Cbicago Times-Herald

From the Chicago Times Herald.
1t Is a Denver newspaper tradition
that the funniest bit of Journalistic work
ever done by Mark Twain was stra.s led
by too friendly proofreader. Mark
was given an assignment TO write up the
opening Of a saloon-quite a noteworthy
event in those DAYS in the Colorado town.
He thought it would be funny 10 make
his account of the festivities bear silent
witness to the potency of the free re
freshments dispensed. The article beean
soberly enough, but soon the diction be
came misty, then the spelling grew CON
fused. and finally the whole thing
degenerated into a maudlin, incoherent o
eulogy of the saloon keeper.
1t was funny. Mark read II over and
laughed until he cried. But the next
morning when he eagerly scanned the
paper he could not find his work. In an
obscure corner he saw two-line item
stating that the Alcazar saloon was
opened with appropriate festivities last
night" That was all.
He rushed down to the office and in
quired about his article. The managing
editor knew nothing about it. Tn city
editor couldn't tell what had become of
ii. The foreman said he hadn't seen IL.
As Mark was snorting about the out
rage" and was running about the office
trying TO get track of the missing copy"
a proofreader slyly nudged him and said.
confidentially: you owe me a cigar"
How is that?" inquired the bumorist.
1--WE earned it" was the reply. Il
saved your job for you last night May
be YOU don't know how the old man here
feels about such things, but he won't
have it if he finds it out. He fired three
men since I've been here-just that way"
Just what way"

know. Your stuff wouldn't do at all. 1t

ing. The weary shopper sinks into the
abandoned resting place with thanks
In her heart, though she has no OppOr-
tunity Of Offering them in words, and

she cannot even look her gratitude.
There is another way Of Offering .
seat which very properly precludes ac-
acknowledgement A man retains his place
until he reaches his destinations; then.
when he has no further use for II. he
offers 1t with an air Of great civility
to some lady standing near. Such .
civility deserves no thanks at all. His
information. which Is really all he
gives, Is useless. She knows that he
must take his body with him when hs
departs, and thus leave vacancy. IL
more than one woman IL standing, he
has no right to designate which one
shall profit by his absence. He IL not
entitled to thanks. and 1t 10 just that

Mamma in the WiIdern ess.

On the great deserts Of Siberia, and
In parts Of the African Sahara, a gray.
eatable lichen grows in immense guam
titles 1t Is known as the mamma lichen.
Its chief popularity is that it has little
or no adhesion to the soil, and SO Is
carried away in masses by the first
strong wind. During the siege of Herat,
when famine was devastating the city,
clouds Of this mamma hchen began to
fall like rain, saving many from the
pangs of hunger. No doubt 1t had been
carried into the upper air by wind
storm. The natives of the Siberian
steppes call this lichen ''earth bread"
and both themselves and their cattle
eat it. 1t Is for human consumption,
boiled like reindeer moss, with broth or
milk, or ground and mixed with -four
