He and his wife staried early Friday morning in phaeton to visit their s"n, who is spending the summer in the Cave Greek valley. Believing that they had lost their way. they turned aside from ,hs road when only three miles from their destination. giving their horse the last water remaining in the canteen.
 At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, a miner named Moore took notice of the rarriag- tracks that crossed and re- crossed the road. He followed the tracks, which ran almost aimlessly. and tipally overlook tha party The day had been one of the warmest eyer known. Even the horse appeared crazed with thirst The occupants of the buggy were dellrions The woman swallowed some water. though she did not som regain her senses.

BELONG TO GREEK CHURCH.
Important Decision Relating to
Lands in Alaska.

WASHINGTON. Dec I.-Secretary
Bliss mas approved an important de-
cIsion prepared by Assistant Attorney
General Vanderventer relating to the
claim of the Orthodox Greek Roman
Church to lands in Alaska at Sitka. ST.
Michael, Unalaska, Belfosk and Ko-
diak
WI nile Alaska was a Russian province
the Graeco- Roman Church erected ed
ifices at different places in the Terri
tory, and from the Russian Government
acquired extensive and valuable lands.
Article III. of the treaty of cession pro-
vided that the church property should
belong to the members of the church
resident in the Territory who should
choose to worship therein. Recently
Nicholas, Bishop of the church in Alas
ka and the Aleutian Islands. has COM
planned that the organization has been
disturbed in the possession of it's pron-
erty, some of the buildings being re-
moved by intruders, who had invaded
the lands, and it was in response to
these representations that the decision
is made.
The Secretary holds that any land.
right and title to which was acquired
| iIoiiE ieuSSAd by lffe cIuTC0, Is not pup
lie land, and therefore is not subject TO
entry, and that land owned by the
church at the time of cession continues
to be owned by it, Further, the Secre-
tary holds that in addition to its pri-
vate land acquired from Russia, under
the laws relating to Alaska, will be
protected in its use and occupancy of
~ublic lands as missionary stations
each station being limited to $40 acres -
The conclusion is reached that the
department has no authority by which
it can remove the trespasser from the
private land owned by the church. nor
to restore the physical possession there
of to the the rightful owners. that be-
ing a matter exclusively within the ju-
risdiction Of the courts. Legislation is
recommended providing for the estab-
lishment of a commission. whose duty
it shall be to survey and determine the
boundary of the church and private
land claims in Alaska. and to confirm
the private titles obtained from Rus
sia.

Archee Armstrong was the well-be-

tracked to his cottage on the moor
lands by the officers of justice. In the
cottage they found a vacant faced lad
rocking cradle with more attention
than boy is accustomed to give thai
duty; this, however, did not arouse
their suspicious. They searched the
cottage thoroughly, but failed to dis
cover the sheep. They We're about to

the stolen sheep lay there! The lad
who was supposed to be the thief, was
brought before King James VI of Scot
land. He was tried convicted and SEN
fenced to die. He began to plead with
the King. He was a poor. ignorant
fellow, he said: he had heard of the
Bible, and would like to read it through
before he died. Would the King respite
him until he did SO? The King readily
gave his consent, whereupon the cul-
prit Immediately said. Then hang me

The witty reply captured the King.
He pardoned the prisoner. and took
him into his service as Jester. In this
capacity Archee was soan a prime IA

n1nSeN. with Such fleet under his
control. it was small wonder that his
associates bestowed upon him the title
of Commodore. This badge of dis
tinction was at first distasteful to him.
but in later years he became proud of
it. From 1910 TO 1850 Commodore
Vanderbilt made money very rapidly,
and became a power in the field of
water transportation At the outbrea k
of the California gold fever. in 1S49.
he established the Nicaragua Line un-
dercut the rates of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and cleared over
a million dollars. In May, 1853. Mr..
Vanderbilt and his family went on a
tour of the coast of Europe in his steam
yacht North Star. Just after leaving
Sandy Hook. Commodore" Vanderbilt
requested the clergyman on board to
conduct family worship throughout the
voyage. 1t was arranged that prayers
should be attended every evening at 8
O'Clock, and that grace should be said
at all meals on board ship. A sermon
was preached every Sunday morning.
The trip was a very pleasant one. and
at southampton the Vanderbilt party
was entertained at public banquet
by the Mayor and the merchants of
the town.
When 60 years old, Commodore"
Vanderbilt started in to acquire rail-
road property. He first bought some
stock in the Harlem Road, and when
he got through With his dealings in
that direction he owned the road. His
acquisition of the New York Central
soon followed. and he began to de-
Nelop what has since been steadily
growing and spreading as the Wander
bilt system. The hardy Commodore"
had many a warm brush with Daniel
Drew, Jay Gould. and James Fisk Jr.,
IN Wall street. and on one or two oc-
casions was almost downed His nerve
and command of ready cash. however.
saved him from financial destruction.
When Commodore Vanderbilt was
eighty years old he told a friend that
he was worth $4,000. 600 II have
made million dollars for every year
Of my life he said. And with this
enormous wealth he continued to prac-
tice the small economies in personal
matters that had characterized his en-
tire life. One day he called in ply
sician TO examine his condition and
prescribe an antidote for his growing
weakness. The doctor suggested that
he needed little stimulant, and ad-
vised him to drink a bottle of cham
payne every day. What" exclaimed
the old millionaire. impatiently. "a
whole bottle of champagne every day :?
