During the last two weeks arrivals
from eastern states have been fewer

while almost every day has seen an
other steamship added TO the Alaskan

The steamship Australia sailed last
night with only 100 passengers from
Tacoma TO Seattle, though she can
carry 600. Her freight is likewise
light. The falling Off in travel is at
tributed to discouraging reports from

There are fashions in words as well

prove. Among the book advertise

famous baseball captain; an extract
from another newspaper noted the
Passing OF Spain, while a religious con-

Calvinism. Steyenson's advice to avoid
the use of hackneyed phrases. however
clever, is in order. Find your own
