THE ORIGINAL DAGO.

The Italian is denominated a "Dago''
in this country, he being the typical
representative of Latin Europe and its
dark-sknned inhabitants. But the
Spaniard is the original dago: i. E.,
Diego" which name is as common in
Spain as John is in this country. Eng
lish and American sailors long ago
came to know Spaniards as "dagoes'
because "dago" was about as close as
they could come to Diego" which in
Spanish is pronounced "De-ah-go." So
it is not ordinarily known in this part
of the world, or not thought of, that
when the name "dago" is mentioned
it originally belonged to the Spaniard,
and that it the more accurately fits
him. 1t was not for Jolly seamen to
too closely between Span
iards and Portuguese or even between
the Spanish and the italians. All of
these nationalities looked much alike,
and the general sound of the languages
they spoke was similar. So they were
all ''dagoesh for seafaring purposes.
and from the coast the nickname fol-
lowed the immigrants from Mediter-
ranean countries to whatever part of
the United States they made their way.

BEWARE OF KLONDIKE.

There was held in Montreal, Canada,
recently a session of the Federated
Mining Institute. A number of Klon-
dikers were present and delivered ad-
dresses, embracing advice to prospect
i've Klondike Argonauts. The sub
stance of these addresses was caution
against invasion of the golden north
west. There are too many people in
the district now physically and intel
Iectually unfit to cope with the hard
ships of pioneer life. The greatly ex-
aggerated reports that have reached
civilization have caused a mad scram-
BILE No idea of the almost insurmount-
able and positively dangerous hard
ships are possessed by these fortune
seekers. In the opinion of these men,
who spoke from personal observation,
and experience, only men of hardy
physique, accustomed to daily hard
ships, were fit to endure the trip to
and life in the Klondike region. Pro-
fessional men, clerks and others whose
