Horrible Sights About the Wreck

Key West, March 3-The Board of In
quiry continues to hold it's mysterious
sessions and a"e as closed mouth as ever.
Nothing has been given out by them
to the press YET.
Hundreds of interviews GO out from
here every day alleged to have been had
with men who have never opened their
mouths to anybody, 1t is pretty well
agreed upon however, that the keel of
the Maine was broken and thrown up
ward by the force of the explosion.
Every few days the mysterious story
hobs up relative to some one who has a
map OF the subterranian passages leading
out to sea from Moro Castle. 1t is re-
garded generally however, as a pure
myth.
GLOOMY FEELING IN SPAIN.
Madrid, March 3.-The tone of the
papers here continue bitter toward the
United States and since the French and
English papers nave taken the grounds
that Spain, in a war with the United
States, need expect no aid from any Euro
pean country, the feeling toward these
countries has been greatly intensified
Underneath it all, however, the press
comments have a gloomy and fOrebod-
ing aspect.
The Spanish people are beginning to
would mean disasterous to Spanish in
t~erests, compared to which the loss OF
Cuba would be of small account.
The Spanish people had counted an aid
from European powers but that hope is
rapidly fading.
The Spanish divers work side by side
with the Anne ricdn divers and disappear
together in the black waters of Havana

ARE YOU TO LIVE IN ALASkA4
Some Requirements That VIII He
Found IndtspensabIe.

The universal article of diet in that
country, depended upon and indispensa-
bic, is bread or biscuit And tomake the
bread and biscuit either in the camp or
| upon the trail, yeast cannot be used-it
must be baking powder; and the pow
der manufactured by the processes of
the Royal Baking Powder Company,
miners and prospectors have learned
is the only one which will stand in that
peculiar climate of cold and dampness
and raise the bread and biscuit satisfac-
torily.
These facts are very important for
every one proposing to go to Alaska and
the Yukon country to know, for should
he be persuaded by some outfitter to
take one of the cheap brands of baking
powder, it will cost just as much to
transport it, and then when he opens il
for use, after all his labor in packing it
over the long and difficult route, he will
find solid cated mass or a lot of spoiled
powder, with no strength and useless.
Such mistake might lead to the most
serious results. Alaska is no place in
which to experiment in food, or try to
economizc with your stomach. For use
in such climate, and under the trying
and fatiguing conditions of life and
labor in that country, everything must
be the best and most useful, and above
all it is imperative that all food supplies
shall have perfect keeping qualities. It
is absurd to convey over such difficult
and expensive routes an article that
will deteriorate in transit, or that will
be found when required for use to have
lost great part of it's value.
There is no better guide to follow
In these matters than the advice of those
who have gone through similar expert
ence. Mr. McQuesten, who is allied the
father of Alaska" after an experience
of years upon the trail, in the camp, and
In the use of every kind of supply, says:
1--WE find in Alaska that the Importance
of proper kind of baking powder oan-
not be overestimated. A miner with a
can of bad baking powder is almost
helpless in Alaska. We have tried all
sorts, and have been obliged to settle
down to use nothing but Royal. It
is stronger, and carries further, but.
that will endure the severe climatic
changes of the Arctic region"
1t is for the same reasons that the q.
S. Government in its relief expeditions,
and Peary the famous Arctic traveller,
have carried the Royal Baking Powder
exclusively.
The Royal Baking Powder will not
cake nor lose its strength either on
board ship or in damp climates, and is
the most nightly concentrated and eff
ficient of leavening agents. Hence it is
Indispensable to every Alaskan outfit.
1t can be had of any of the trading COM
panies in Alaska, but should the miner
procure his supplies before leaving, he
should resist every attempt of the out
filter to palm off upon him any of the
other brands of baking powder, for they
will spoil and prove the cause of great
disappointment and trouble.

before taking up their home there visited
the country as delegates. They reported
70 the Government of the Dominion of
canada the result OF their observations,
and from this report extracts have been
taken, which are published below:
we have visited number of most desir-
able locations, and are highly pleased with
the country as a whole, it being beyond our
highest expectations. We find here pros
porous and well-contented lot of people
They have comfortable homes, and their
vast fields of wheat and other crops in addi-
ton to their herds of choice cattle, indicate
prosperity in the full sense of the word. In
conversation with the farmers throughout
our trip we learned that the majority of
them came here with very limited means,
and some with no more than enough to
bring them here, and they are now well-to-
do. They all claim that this is the only coun-
try tor poor man, or one with little means
to get start and make home for himself
and family. As you are aware, we were q
little shaky and undecided before leaving
Detroit, but have determined since that we
with our friends, will make this country our
future home. 1t is far from being the wilder
ness we had pictured it to be; it is, instead,
land having all the facilities required by
modern civilization, such as railroads, mar
kets, stores, churches, schools, etc, in fact.
an ideal home for those having the future
welfare Of themselves and families at heart"
The Messrs. Striovski selected the Ala.
media district, but what they say of it appeals
in general way to most other districts in
that vast country. They speak of the fuel,
which is to be had in great quantities, of tho
water that can be had by digging from 10 to
20 feet, and of the good grazing land to be
had almost everywhere. There is plenty Of
wood for building timber and for fuel, while
coal is convenient, and sells at low prices at
the mines. In driving through the country
they passed many fine patches of wild rasp-
berries, and say they can speak highly Of
their flavor, as they could not resist the
temptation to stop and eat

THE FARMING WORLD.
MANAGING ON SHARES.
The Equitable system Adopted by .
MiscOnsin Farmer.

Wisconsin Farmer.
OF late much has been printed on the
above subject, but none seems to hit
the mark or the plan that will always
warrant success. Here in this very fer
tile district the farm manager gets one
half the proceeds of the farm for his
salary. He owns one-half of all the
live stock kept or raised on the farm.
He has house and outbuildings, free
| of rent; he furnishes teams and all the
tools, does all the work, and is required
in written contract to do all the
work in season, and in a good work
manlike manner; he is allowed to keep
team on the undivided grass and hay,
but must feed his own grain.
He can sell his crops at any time he
sees fit, and must sell the proprietors
half at the pleasure of the owner of the
farm, and gets one cent per bushel for
hauling the grain not to exceed four
miles; all other proceeds he must take
to market free of charges.
He must work the highway; he must
| repair all fences and make light repairs
on the outbuildings, the owner furnish
ing all material. The proprietor must
pay all cash taxes and one-half of the
thrashing bill, and has one-half of all
the proceeds of the farm of every ma
ture, except the proceeds of one-fourth
acre, which is assigned to the tenant
for garden. The owner must be ad-
vised as to the crops to be raised and
the different fields in which they must
be grown. The manuer must be drawn
out every fall and put where it is most
needed.
The man on my farm commenced the
first of November last on his fourth
year, and as yet there has not been dis.
satisfaction between us. The tenant
gets his pay as he goes along, and is
satisfied in all things; one-half of the
products of the farm is his salary.
Most of the farms in this vicinity are
managed on the above terms, which
are considered advantageous for the
tenant, especially in a dry and unpro.
ductive season, for he has no rent.

BIRDS EAT 400 SHEEP.
The Feast Took Place 100 Miles From
DnMnOn and Cost S2O.OOO.


Jack Collins, who started for Dawson
City with band of sheep last summer,
has been heard from. He sold part Of
his flock for $4,000. The other and
biggest half of the flock fed the birds
of the arctic zone. This is how it hap
pened:
He drove the sheep in over the Dali
ton trail. Some time before Dawson
was reached cold weather came on, and
Collins decided to kill his sheep. He
killed and sold 500, and received nearly
100000 for them.
Then he concluded to hold the re-
mainder for a better market. He killed
the remaining 400 in sort of secluded
place off the line of travel and suspend
ed the carcasses on poles far enough
above the ground to be out of the reach
Of bears, wolves or other wild animals
he left two young men to watch the
mutton, and proceeded to look for a
mining section. Having found one, he
located claim and proceeded to test
it. After he had dug out few thou
sand dollars worth of gold he thought
he would, as the French say, return
to his muttons."
His stay had been so prolonged that
the young men had become weary Of
holding a wake over the sheep, and,
imagining Dawson to be only a few
miles away, had started for that city
to enjoy some of the pleasures a met
ropolitan city can afford. 1t proved to
be about 100 miles to Dawson, so their
absence was more extended than they
had inended, and when Collins reached
the place where he had left the car
casses of 400 sheep he found only 400
bleaching skeletons.
The eagles, ravens, crows, kites,
hawks and other birds of prey which
inhabit that region had been feasting
on mutton. where the carcass is,
there will the eagles be gathered" is
a proverb which applies to other birds
OF prey. Collins had left so many car
casses that invitations had been sent
out and general roundup of all the
vultures and things in that region, from
Behring sea to the Mackenzie river, had
taken place. Whether the claim Col
Inns secured will make good the loss
OF the mutton or not remain ms to be seen,
but when he drives in his next band of
sheep the birds of prey will not get
so large percentage of them.-Port-
land Oregonian.
