The Match That Saved Three Lives.
This is the story of a match that
saved three mems lives in the Klon-
ike.
The men were Baron Selkiff Peglau,
stark Humes, of Seattle, and B. J.
'Attler, of Pictou, Ont They left Daw-
Aon City with sleds and dogs, bound
down the Yukon to St. Michael's.
When one hundred and ten miles from
Dawson they ran into 6O-below-zero
blizzard, which paralyzed them with
cold so that they could scarcely move.
The baron was far ahead. Humes
and Littler tried to build fire. Match
after match was lighted only to go
out. Their fingers were so numb that
they could not hold the matches,
which dropped into the snow, flickered
and died out. Their last match was
gone. Death from freezing stared
them in the face
The baron came up. Got any
matches?" they cried in one voice.
The baron felt numbly through his
pockets, and after much desperate
fumbling produced single, dirty, little
match. Their lives hung on that
splinter of wood. Eagerly they got
some dry shavings. Humes and Lift
Ter spread wide open their great coats,
opposite each other. The baron
stopped down and tried to light the
fatal match. He struck it and it fell
from his nerveless fingers, Picking it
up he struck it again along his leg.
Humes and Littler felt their hearts
choking their throats.
This time tiny spark flew off the
end of the match, fiickered bashfulIy
in the cold, dry air, took courage, ig-
nited one of the shavings, and then an
other, while the baron nursed it until
the fame bit his frozen fingers. The
fire caught, then burned briskly, and
in few moments three desperate
Klondikers thanked their lucky stars
that they had escaped that most hor-
rible death, frozen stiff in the Klon-
dixie.

A Good Law.

A law has just been passed in France
forbidding any one to give solid food to
infants under year old without the
written authority Of physician. In
France, too, the long rubber tubes to
feeding bottles are forbidden under
heavy penalties. Everywhere people are
warned not TO use them, the reason be-
ing that it is impossible to keep them
properly sterilized,

SOME DOGS OF WAR.
One Animal That Was Decorated by
Marshal Lannes For Bravery.

One Animal That Was Decorated by
Marshal Lannes For Bravery.
A French paper has published a roll
Of honor of dogs which have distin-
! guished themselves in war. This is
not inappropriate, considering that the
dog has been pressed into military SER
vice. For instance, there was Bob, the
mastiff of the Grenadier Guards, which
made the Crimean campaign with that
corps; and also Whitepaw, brave
French ally of Bob, that made the same
campaign with the 10th of the line
and was wounded in defending the
flag.
Another, Moustache, was entered on
the strength of his regiment as entitled
to grenadier's rations. The barber
had orders to clip and comb him once a
week. This gallant animal received a
bayonet thrust at Marengo and recov-
cred a flag at Austerlitz. Marshal
Lannes had Moustache decorated with.
medal attached to his neck by red
ribbon. Corps de Garde followed a
oOANAS4 " 4NAeAl CAA5O, was WOuA4NO0 a.
Austerlitz, and persisted in the retreat
from Moscow.
The 9Th of the Guard had military
mastiff named Misere, which wore
three white stripes sewn on his black
hair. There was also Pompon of the
4Sth Bedouins, the best sentry of the
baggage train; Loutpute, a Crimean
heroine; Mitraille, killed at Inkerman
by shell; Moffino, that saved his mas
ter in Russia and was lost or lost him
self, but found his way alone from
Moscow to Milan, his first dwelling
place.
The most remarkable, however, WAS
an English terrier, named Mustapne,
which went into action with his Eng
lish comrades at Fontenoy, and, ac-
cording to the story, remained alone
by field-piece after the death of the
gunner, his master clapped the match
to the touch-hole of the cannon, and
thus killed seventy soldiers" and it is
further added that Mustapha was pre-
scented to King George II. and reward
ed with pension.

Names woman Diver.

A woman diver is something new,
but Mrs. Lille Gordon Of South Port
land, wife of Nat Gordon, the famous
submarine diver, can lay claim to this
distinction. In June, while her hus-
band was constructing a stone wharf
at Hurricane Island, Mrs. Gordon dom
ned the divers suit and went down in
thirty feet of water. She went down
as steadily as veteran diver, says one
who was present, and though for a
minute she felt as though she were
smothering, she reports the sensation
at the bottom of the sea as a very
pleasant one.

purpose Of devising ways and means

Omaha. Neb from June to November CT
this year. The question as to the methods
OF snangurating and maintaining the same
upon lines most feasible, and the magni-
tude and cost of such an exhibit, was
thoroughly discussed In all its phases.
The plan of constructing a state building
with lumber which would probably be do
mated by the lumberman and transported
by the railroads without cost and erected
al slight expense seemed to meet with
general favor, as there Is yet an abun-
dance OF time in which 10 accomplish this.
1t was thought best TO invite the com
nercial boards OF the principal towns in
the state 10 cooperate in the movement,
as the total expense would thereby be
materially lessened. Each town or sec
ton taking an interest would be entitled
TO space for It's individual exhibits and
would received the full benefit Of being
represented In the state building. Com
municat;ons were sent to the principal
boards. asking them TO send representa-
tive or to confer at once as to what action
their boards would take In the matter
The committee recognizes the great i'm
portance OF being represented at this ex-
position at this particular time, as all at
teHtion ID now turned toward the Alaska
gold fields. and the mineral resources OF
Washington should not be overlooked. All
Indications are that the Omaha exposition
will be one OF the grandest the United
States has ever had. and with the other
Pacific coast cities already represented
Washington cannot afford 10 and must not
be outdone.
The committee win report progress 10
