He Could Change His Mind.

No man is better known or more gen.
orally beloved in the city in which he lives
than Prof. Adam Hendershott. His cohversa.
tion is quite devoid of bitterness. Only once
was he ever known to say anything indcat-
ing even the slightest trace of ill-temper.
Travelling downward on a suburban trolley
line to call upon friend, he asked the con-
ductor to transfer him to the city street
cars at a certain point.
Soon afterward the car stopped, and he
was surprised to see outside the very friend
he was seeking. He started to leave the
car, but the conductor accosted him.
you can't change for your car here" he
said brusquely. go back"
The professor passed him, taking no no.
tice.
Cant change cars here, tell you,"
snapped the conductor again.
Prof. Hendershott, deep in conversation
whit his friend, merely waved his hand to
signify that the car might go on without
him.
"Here, you old JAY" cried the man with
the brass buttons angrily, don't 1 tell you
that you can't change cars at this station?"
The good old professor answered with Sc
verify "But can change my mind at this
station, can't I?"-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

FOREIGN.

The naval court of inquiry in Havana
continued it's examination of divers
and gave considerable time to close per-
sonal inspection of portions of the
wreck of the Maine.
Spaniards seized the American
schooner Esther on the southern coast
of Cuba, but she was soon released.
The United States cruiser Montgom-
cry arrived at Havana to replace the
Maine and was received by salutes of
welcome.
1t is announced that the court of in
quiry into the Maine disaster has closed
it's sessions at Havana and will be ready
to submit its report very soon. The
members of the court left Havana on
the dispatch boat Fern, bound for Key
West.
The naval board of inquiry into the
Maine explosion is said to have COM
pleted its investigation. Everything
now is in the nature of cumulative tes-
timony, strengthening the evidence
that the Maine was blown up by an ex-
ternal explosion.

THE ALASKA SURVEY.
Two Important Papers Describe the
Land of Gold.

Land of Gold.
Washington, March 9.-Two papers
containing important contributions as to
gold bearing regions of Alaska, papers
the publication of which has been
awaited with great interest for nearly a
year, have just issued from the govern
ment printing Office. The papers give
the result of reconnaissance by survey
experts, made, respectively, in the sum-
mers of 1895 and 1896, or shortly before
the outbreak of the Klondike gold ex-
element.
The report of Mr.. J. e. Spur (392
pages of text, with maps and other IL
lustrations), which treats mainly of the
valley of the Yukon, is of more imme-
date interest at the present time, since,
although the Klondike region did not
come within the limits of his official
work, he recognized the probable inn
portance of that region, as a result of
his studies of the districts of Forty-Mile
and Arctic city, within American
boundaries.
