turned his back on the sea and addressed
himself to the task of piercing IL conti-
nent. At Herschel island he found a dog
team and natives, and struck at once up
the course of the Mackenzie river.
Through the highway afforded by that
and by the Athabasca he avoided mount
ain ranges. and SO came to the most
northerly telegraph station.
His owners are in San Francisco and
he Is but little over half way TO them
But the problem of his rescue journey is
solved. for the telegraph gives him speech
with the world and the trains can carry
hin: swiftly.
Incidentally the Journey of Sailor Charles
Walker shows the feasibility of the over
land trip to the Klondike country. He has
heid TO the east slope of the Rocky mount
am range. But there are numerous passes
Dy which the western slope may be
reached. Indeed, the source of Mackenzie
river lies west OF the Rocky mountains and
very near indeed to the lake source of the
mighty Yukon. Such highway as a frozen
stream may afford is provided nearly all
the way from Edmonton TO the mines
The sailors for whom he made this per-
nous trip had. with short rations. provis-
IONS for six months. There will be haste
to meet them with food at the open water
Of Bering sea.

ADECLARATIoN OF ALTRrIsM.

Inc Davis amendment 10 the senate reso-
luton. if preserved in the joint resolution
OF the two branches of congress. will do
more than all other disclaimers the United
States Will be able 10 make TO answer the
European imputation that the war against
Spain is for the purposes of territorial ac-
QUESTION.
The amendment has the merit of national
justification and diplomatic value. 1t is an
especially fitting and potential declaration
when used the last clause of the resolu-
tion. II is as follows:
THAT the United States hereby disclaims
any disposition intention 10 exercise SOW
ereignty, jurisdiction or control over said
island, except for the pacificatior thereof:
and asserts its determination. when this is
accomplished 10 leave the government and
control of the island to Its people"
The inspiration of American interven-
ton in Cuba rises above the assertion of
commercial rights and has nothing 70 do
with a desire for national agSrandizement
1t has its origin in the humanity of a
Christian people 1t is provoked by condi-
tions that are intolerable TO modern civili-
cation. II is the noble impulse of the strong
and free TO succor the weak and op-
pressed. The embodiment of our primary
motives and ultimate purposes in one sali-
ent clause of the nations expressed policy
will have an exalting influence upon the
people of this country and should have
salutary effect upon the powers of Europe.

BUSINESS AND WAR.

show a handsome incease over those of the
corresponding week of last year. The bust.
ness of the country is evidently not serious.
ly disturbed by the menace of international
hostilities. The commercial agencies re.
port surprisingly stable conditions on the
markets. Here in Kansas City, for exam.
pie there is no sign of depression. On the
contrary the prosperity inaugurated some
time ago seems to be gaining with Its owr
momentum. Building permits for private
residences. averaging about ten a day. are
being issued, and there are plenty of 9TH

The stability of business under such gen.

singular and distressing phenomenon

| in Nandalia. When the appointed day ar.

fest on the body. drops of perspIration ap-

postponed, and several physicians were
calieC IN Tor consultation. The husband
was almost beside himself and the whole

ness of what seemingly was an escape
| from burial alive. After careful examina-
| ton and deliberation. however the doctors
pronounced the body lifeless. and the in
| terment took place the next day. The ply
| sicians say they can offer no explanation
| OF the strange circumstance
Mrs j. j. Osborn, of Brookiield received
a letter Saturday. the Gazette says. from
her son. Ollie, who left Cameron August
D, 1897, for Alaska. The letter was written
November " at Rampant City. on the My
nook creek. town of 400 inhabitants 1t
| is located $40 miles from Dawson City. 1t
| required 81 to get the letter carried from
Rampant City 10 Circle City, and at the
| latter place it came over the regular mail
route, starting December ]. Ollie says he is
"ei ana rugged, but has had enough eE-
| periences and hardships to fill a volume;
that ne wouldn't I advise anyone to come :;
that Rampant contains eight or nine wom-
en-, and not one of them but what would
probably give all the gold in Alaska to be
back home again. but that for man who
can stand privatons and hard work. with
prospects of millions ahead, the situation
10 boz
bers of his party were well; that they had
taken up town lots at Rampant by paying
the recorders fee of $2.50. and had built
CABINS thereon: that they have located
gold claims on Mynook creek, and that old
miners say the prospects are better at
that point than they were at Dawson CITY
in the beginning of the gold excitement;
that they would remain there until June,
anyway, and would probably know by
February as TO how their claims would
turn out. He says an Indian who had just
arrived from Dawson City reported the
people of that place on the verge of starva-
tion; that 10000 people have gone over the
pass without provisions: that flour was
$3.50 per sack, bacon $40 per pound. candles
81 each, potatoes 81 each and everything
else in proportion. Mr.. Osborn, who has had
the advantage of extensive travel in foreign
countries, says the scenery of Alaska is
grand and compares favorably with any
he has ever seen; there is a stiffness and
freshness in Alaska to be found in no other
country. The night before he wrote the
thermometer was IS deg. below zero. but
still he was SO well provided with wraps
that he had not suffered from cold up to
that time. He says the sun was then ris-
ing at and going down at o'clock, and
that the days would soon be so short that
the moon and stars could be seen at !
o'clock in the afternoon.
