ABOUT THE FASHIONS.

1t is great mistake to put too much
handsome trimming on a hat. A little
of better quality produces better
effect.
The dolman style of wrap is likely to
have rather unwelcome reception. It
is so difficult to move ones arms when
wearing a garment of this sort that it
would be small wonder if sensible wom-
en-, refused to accept the fashion.
There is nothing more becoming to
the average woman than hat made of
dark velvet. When loosely laid over the
frame and caught down with brilliant
pins or jewels and finished with little
very rich trimming it is the ideal head
gear.
Theater wraps are elegant and elnb-
crate in the extreme. They are i'm
Inensely large and full, and as profusely
trimmed as the most extravagant ball
costume. Velvet, plush and brocade arc
the favorite materials, and fur. lace and
ruchings the approved garniture.
The shoulder cape wrap still con-
tinues in style, and probably has Sc
cured place that will make it difficult
to supplant it. 1t is comfortable, easily
put on and very stylish. Such wraps arc
becoming to almost every woman, even
the stoutest being able to wear them if
properly modified and shaped to the
figure.

I'VE still believe that Nj. Davies has
lot taken the correct longitude and
latitude regarding the mutual zenti-
nsnts Of The foreigners and the na-
tivss. On leaving these Islands in 1852,
after z brief Official career, We dfscov-
cred z strong. almost intense regard
for, and hope il the natives future.
When We suggested that revolution
was the logic Of events here, We were
net with strong, almost contemptuouz
disaDDcovzI BY nearly all classes. The
feeling among the old residents, eSpec-
tally the missionaries was, that the na-
tive Monarchy would and should stand,
because IL was hoped for By all that
the natives we're gradually becoming
educated il the principles Of selt-gov-
eminent, and would cheek the excuses
OF the rulers. We said then, as We say
now, that our own regard for the na-
tive race was deep-seated and abiding.
As matter OF sentiment merely, We
share with others almost q romantic
love for them, as z simple, genial, gen
eroGs people But when the question
Is whether or not they have that

which enables them 10 share in the

frankly say they do not have II, and
therefore We cannot trust them. We

 Compensation.
Bring Suit in Seattle Court to Recover $2OOO From
 A. MOSer.
Defendant Picked Up Disabled and Drawn by Sled to Place or
 Safety.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, Feb. 9.-As result Of the Klondike excitement civil actions or various kinds have been instituted 1n this city. Suits have been brought upon numerous pretexts, but until to-day no one had been sued for not rewarding men who used their strength in haul ing him out of the frozen interior of Alaska. This afternoon, however, a suit was filed in the Superior Court by J. B. Graeber and Joe McClelland against A. MoSer to recover S2000 for bringing the defendant on a sled from the mouth of the HootalinQua River to Skaguay.
 Young Graeber and McClelland fell in with Moser last December at point 230 miles from tidewater. Moser was phy- sically used up and was satisfied that he could not make his way out over the frozen river unaided. He pleaded with the young men to haul him to Skaguay, promising to pay them S20OO as soon as they reached civilization. After considerable hesitancy, the offer was accepted and the young men aver they safely landed their passenger at Skaguay The trip was hard one and the money was well earned but at the end of the journey Moser refused to make the payment, and has not since recompensed the young men.
 Graeber is but IS years of age, and is represented in the suit by his father, J. F. Graeber, as guardian. They come from Shamokin, Pa.

RAILROADS AT LoGGERHEADs.
Canadian Pacific Will Not Treat
 With American Lines.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-Two days ago the executive officers of the transcCn- tinental roads sent a message to Vice President Shaughnessey of the Cana dian Pacific, reciting the efforts made by the passenger agents of their re- spective lines to get General Passenger Agent McNicoll of the Canadian Pa cific to join in a conference regarding the Alaska business. To-day they re- ceived a reply from MT. Shaughnessey, which is on the same line as those sent by General Passenger Agent McNicOll to the general passenger agents of the American roads. MT. Shaughnessey, in his telegram declining. the request for meeting, went into the matter at great length and wound up by de- cIaring that unless the American roads within three days withdrew all the cut rates which he declared to be in exist ence to North Pacific Coast points the Canadian Pacific would proceed to protect its interests in the manner in which seems to it best.

this place to the number of twenty or thirty joined the officers of the school in the hunt and many are yet in the hills.
 Since January 1, when D. s. Hirsch- berg took charge as superintendent, the cadets have shown their apprecia- tion of kind treatment and no attempts to escape have been made, and it seems that the boys who skipped out to-day were promised a parole or discharge by the former superintendent. MT. Hirshberg, however, has refused to make any recommendations to the Board of Trustees on the ground that he desired to make no mistakes in his recommendation and desired to become thoroughly and personally acquainted with all the cadets desiring release from the school
 The present management has the support of the community. and all good citizens will assist in every way to maintain discipline and return the es- caping cadets.

RICH FIND ON

 the Yukon.
A Vancouver, B. C., Party Picks Up $5O,OOO in Coarse
 Gold in One Day.
Great Excitement Prevails and a Stampede for the New Dig
 gings Is Certain.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, Feb. 9.-In a telegram re- ceived here late tonight from Vancou- yer, B. C., is conveyed the report of fabulous gold find on an unknown creek on the American side in the Yu- kon territory. The news came in a letter from Fritz Behnsen of Victoria to his brother Karl. He says:
 We have struck it rich on an un- known creek across the border, never before seen by man. In the crevices of the rocks in one day we picked up $50,- 900 in coarse gold. Sell your business or give it away and come quick with ten men,"
 . The Behnsens have large business in terests at Vancouver and are consid- cred thoroughly reliable. In view of this fact the news, which spread like wildfre, will result in a stampede to the American side as soon as the local ity can be ascertained.
 Several KlOndikers now in Seattle were interviewed by The Call corre- spondent tonight as to the probability of this report being true. The richness of the reputed discovery seems so fab ulous as to create in their minds a OOuDlIuI IlpIeSSIOH dS u US lIuilI uI- ness. However, they say that the Yu- kon country is so full of golden possi- bilties that they are almost prepared to believe anything. Corroborative re- ports and further details will be anx- iously looked for.
 The steamers City of Topeka and Signal are overdue from Dyea and Skaguay. Up to a late hour tonight they had not been reported.
 A special from Nanaimo, B. C., states that the steamer Oregon arrived there to-day from Skaguay with twenty-five passengers. Among the number are A. Gervie of Kent, Wash, and R. Lamore They came from the interior and are the only ones with a stake. They re- fused to indicate the value of their wealth, but admitted that they had S10,000 worth of gold dust to dispose of They state that wages have taken fall in the KlOndike district and that many men are working for dollar an hour.

 FRESNO, Feb. 9.-At about 7:3o o'clock last evening the loud screams of a girl calling for help attracted the attention of Colonel s. s. Wright, who was in his yard at the corner of I and Calaveras streets. Upon running out he ascertained that the screams came from a girl in a buggy, who was being rapidly driven away by man, who was struggling with her in an effort to suppress her cries for assistance. He tried to muff1e her voice, and was hitting her with the butt end of his whip to silence her screams. A citi- zen made an effort to stop the horse. but the driver whipped up and almost ran over the man who went to the girls as- sistance.. The fellow drove north at a rapid gait. pursued by several citizens and Policeman, Morss. The driver out stripped them, however, and disappeared
 As it was dark at the time the parties could not be recognized. The girl was asked to call out the name of the man. and she attempted to, but he put his hand over her mouth and beat her with the whip. She managed to utter a name. but the sound could not be recognized dis tinctly, although the officer believes he has clew from it.
