BIRMINGHAM'S GOLD
 HUNTERS SAFE They Had Left the Clara Nevada at
 Skaguay. SHIP WAS ON RETURN TRIP To the City of Juneau When the DiSaS-
 ter Overlook It. INFORMATION IS VERY MEAGRE A Dispatch From Seattle Says Hopes Are Still Entertained That the Crew Was Saved
 No News Can Be Obtain
 ed Before Thursday.

Though no further tidings of the Clara Nevada can be obtained it is now accepted that the Birmingham delegation to the Klondike is safe. The theory is that the ill-fated vessel was on the return trip and had already landed the gold-seekers.
 A private telegram to Ed Warren, Jr., received here yesterday, dated Seattle says the Birmingham boys ar safe, the Clara Nevada having been wrecked on the re- turn trip. It is signed by H. L. Stanley.
 A telegram by the Associated Press dated at Seattle and sent out last night says no further news can be obtained concern ing the reported loss of the steamer. On account of the remoteness of the scene of the reputed disater, it is impossible to get any thing authentic. Unless some un- expected steamer arrives no definite news is expected before next Thursday.
 No Doubt About Burning.
 Advicess via the Assocatei1 Press from Victoria say there is no longer any douD, about the bunrnig of the vessel. The scene of the disaster was off Berne's Bay, Lynn canal The fire and explosion were seen and heard from the wharf and wreckage was picked up on the beach next day pu' there were no signs of the forty men who left Skaguay on her.
 A special to The Age-Herald from Chae- tanooga, Tenn, says:
 "On board the steamer Clara NeVada wrecked off the British Columbia coast en route from Seattle to Alaska was G. w. Stapleton of Birmingham, and brother of Ed F. and Robert Suspicion, of Chat- tanooga. He Left Birmingham for Seattle about a month ago and s certain that he sailed on the Clara Nevada. He wrote to his brother here while on board ship ana the letter was mailed at some port en route Therefore if the crew and passen- gers are lost according to the teiegfapnie reports Mr. Stapleiton went down watn them."
 There was deep gloom among the friends of the Birmingham boys when the news of the bunrnig of the Nevada was hIs' reaeived. Tit is now, however, argued by their friends that they had already le1l the vessel and were safely on land ano making good headway in the direction ol the New Eldorado. It is claimed that th' local delegation left the ship at Skagua. and that it was on it's return trip t' TuHnau.

His reputation as an orator has earned for him the title of "The Chauncey Depew of the vest His word painting is said to be a most exquisite combination of diction, smile and fervor, reaching that high pitch of eoquence which captivates an audience.

WEARS A WORRIED LOOK The Free Lunch Fiend is in Im-
 mediate Danger. PAY BOARD OR STARVE Restaurant and Hotel Men Kick at the Prac- tice-Will be Brought Before the
 Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton.

The free lunch fend is in imminent dan ger of being compelled to pay board.
 His Bohemian instincts that have been nurtured upon the liberality of the indul- gent saloonkeepers of the city will revolt at the new order of things; but he must prepare to meet the inevitable
 A number of the leading saloons have for some time past served an elegant lunch from Il a. m. to 1 D. m., consisting of a bowl of soup, roast beef or pork, vegetables, salads and in some instances deserts. This lunch is free to the patrons who purchase a l5-cent drink, whether it be a bottle of beer or drink of Kentucky bourbon. It is said that many men have become regular patrons and rely entirely upon this bever- age and food refreshment combination to satiate their noon appetites, thus killing two birds with one stone
 Some of the restaurant and hotelkeepers have raised a huge kick, claiming that their business is curtailed by reason of the free lunch. They say that if they were to offer a bottle of beer d drink of whisky with every ordinary meal it would affect the business of the barkeeper, and would at the same time leave little profit on the meal As matters stand they claim that both the barkeepers and themselves are injured and they have set about to see if something cannot be done.
 The saloon men set up the plea of self-de- fense and argue that they are compelled to do so, because their competitors in business are offering the inducement. Most of them say that it is an expensive adver- tisement which they would willingly give up, if they could obtain the concerted &C., tion of the saloon men to an agreement upon the evil.
 In order to serve the lunch they are com- pelled to employ additional help, and in some instances complete culinary depart ments have been put in, the expenses of which are necessarily taken from the profits on the sale of drinks, no revenue being de- rived from it.
 It is more than probable that the ques- tion will be presented at the next meeting of the Liquor Dealers association, which may result in the abolition of the practice.
 In the meantime the "fend" is making hay while the sun shines, though he pales under the possibilities of the future that stare him in the face.

The Wheat Calendar.

1t is hardly too much to say that
wheat harvesting is in progress ali
the year round, albeit tie greater
part of the worlds crop is harvested
In the three months Of summer.
The apparent extremes meet in the
Australian confederation. In Austria
liza proper and New Zealand January
Is the harvest month. Being south
of the equator, their January is our
July in point Of season and temper
allure. New South Wales is littlt
earlier and harvests its wheat il
December. Thus those two Winter
months are the harvest season Of
Australia, and with good yield
those countries will raise from 40
100000 to 100000 bushels year.
Burmah is also a December country,
aid Chill and the Argentine Republic
are January countries.
February and March are still greater
months for the wheat harvest. India
and Egypt do a great deal Of harvest
ing during those months and finish ul
In April. There is a wide difference
In season between northern and
southern India, also between upper
and lower Egypt. China, Japan ant
central Asia generally harvest whsar
In May; so does northern Africa
along the Mediterranean. In thi.
country Texas may be called the only
May wheat state.
BY the time the three summe,
months are over there is not mucl
left in the way Of wheat cleaning
As we have Eeen, the year really end
early in August. There is whca
harvesting now in progress in tn
north OF Russia and it will not snt
until October. That couLtry extend
almost to the north pole. Sweden an,
Norway, and also the north of Scot
land, string along through Soptsmbe
and October.
November does not make much Of
showing. A little wheat haryestin
Is done in Peru and in South Afric
In that month, but not enough t

In railroad work, as in many other
lines OF industry, machinery is taking
the place of hand labor. In no way
is it more apparent than in the use
which is being made of compressed
air. Formerly it took two men a day
to paint box car; now it is done in
seven minutes by compressed air.
Fences, roundhOuses and Outbuild-
ings are whitewashed in One-tenth the

CINE boilers are riyeted by compressed
air in one. tenth the time taken by
former methods. Formerly ten. tt
twelve fire boxes were a good year;
work; now as many can be made in
month. Compressed air is used il
cutting off bolt heads inside OF tirt
boxes and in pulling dead engines
Under old methods when iG was nee
essary to move dead engines steam
had to be raised for the operation o
to hitch onto 1t with another engine
Now, they pump the boiler full o
compressed air and move it wher
they want to. Air jacks are nov
used instead Of hydraulic, etc. Tn
