An Arctic Hotel.

The most northern hotel in the world
is on the inhospitable shore. of Advent
bay, where it washes the west coast of
Spitzbergen. Tourist hythen Tourist
hoteD is the name of the remote estab-
lishment. Its season is necessarily short,
extending from July 10 to Aug. IS, but
1t gives hearty welcome to the few
venturesome travellers who have the te-
merity to seek its shelter. 1t has accom-
modations for 30 guests. 1t is announc-
ed that the increase of travel to the gate
OF the arctic regions has made the es.
tablishment of a postoffice in the hotel
a necessary feature. The hotel is in an
approximate latitude of 70 degrees 10
minutes, or 500 miles farther north than
Hammerfest. Probably better idea of
its situation may be gained from the
statement that the late quarters of the
jackson Harmsworth expedition in
Franz-Josef Land were hardly more
than 100 miles nearer the pole. The
building naturally is unpretentious in
appearance, being only 4 stories high,
with diminutive porch at the front.
AS a matter of course it is built of
wood.-New York Tribune.

up from the ranks and by his own eff

mind has been gradually weakening.
The crisis was reached few weeks ago.
when the court decided he was no long

interests and guardian was appointed.
This trouble was only the warning sig
nal. Since that time his whole system

several days several physicians have
been in almost constant attendance. but
their skill seems TO be Of little avail.
and the patient is sinking rapidly. 1t
is expected that a few hours will see
the end.

"If you want to see intellect play
against intellect. said a young lawyer,
yet in his enthusiasm, believing in
equity aud the purity Of the law, "you
should go down to the civil or the su-
preme court when big case is being
heard. 1t is not like sitting through q
criminal trial. A mans quickness and
eloquence are often assisted there by dra
matio details, but in the civil or SUI
preme courts q lawyer must depend
upon his own brain alone and not upon
emotional tricks. What a delight it is
for me to listen to the wit. combats and
terse arguments of two masters grown
gray at the bar These men have at their
command the reading Of twoscore years.
They are armed with the humor of ex.

intellects, never having been wasted in
idleness, are as fresh as q young girls

One Cause of Forest Fires.

A traveller who bad occasion to make
an encampment on ledge of rock in an
unbroken forest asserts that he witness.
ed the beginning of one of the most de-
structive forest fires that ever occurred
in that region. A dead tree of enormous
size blew over and lodged against an
other tree, which it bent almost in the
form OF bow. The fierce wind swayed
the top of the bent tree which supported
the trunk of it's fallen neighbor. 1t so
CHANGED that there was a space Of sew
eral feet where the fallen tree was
smooth and rested on the other. The
force of the wind in sweeping the bent
tree back and forth soon ground the
bark from the trunk of the tree. The
friction caused by this grinding de-
veloped a high degree of heat, and the
tourist, to his establishment, saw the
wood of the dead tree burst into flame.
The top was soon consumed and fell,
scattering burning embers upon the dry
leaves for some distance around. These.
famed to flame by the wind, soon Gre
ated fierce fire that swept over miles
OF valuable timber. Much blame has
been attached to campers and malicious
persons who have, it is alleged, started
fires either through carelessness or for a
desire for wanton mischief. Owners of
large tracts of land would do well to
keep close watch of their forests during
and after heavy windstorms which are
not accompanied by heavy rain. A lit
tie precaution might save thousands of
acres of valuable timber. New York

especially when told by railroad men. A
certain system running in the southwest is
known for its slow trains from one end of
the line to the other. The trains are slow
enough at best, but when washouts and over
flows occur, time doubles up on engineer,
train crew and passengers. Not long ago a
flood of complaints was poured in upon the
general manager of the line from all kinds
OF people who travel over this system. One
of them came from prominent undertaken,
somewhere in an adjacent state, and this is
what he wrote:
eff you do not run faster trains over your
line you will ruin my business Ny custom
ers will not ship their corpses over your
system for fear that they will not reach
their destination before the resurrection

said to one of mis- men. eff you catch the

And the reporter went.
Soon after three o'clock that afternoon
they got wire from him:
