The Sand Man drops in every night,
The Sand Man with his sand;
To sprinkle grains in little eyes
With unseen, unfelt hand.
He comes about the hour when all
The baby work is done;
When toys lie scattered round the room
Abandoned one by one

Stands quiet in his stall
consecrated place between
The trundlc bed and wall.

A painted rubber ball.
A rattle with a whistle ON,
bruised and battered doll
A dozen little glittering things
So dear to baby land;
But now the Sand Man comes around.
The Sand Man with his sand
Two chubby little fists are forced
In two small sleepy eyes. e.
To rub away the sand which SITS
Across some tired sighs.
And now the Sand Man yields his place
To a fairy with a rod,
Who beckons toward that mystic shrine,
The babyhood of Ned.
The Sand Man drops in every night,
The Sand Man with-his sand;
To sprinkle grains in littleSeyes,
With unseen, unfelt hand.

We predict that Uncle Sam S
troops will not establish u mill
tary post at Fort Yukon this
year. If they succeed in reach
ing Nulato before the river closes
they will be fortunate indeed, as
that section of the river will be
closed by September 10Th. Now
that the trail between GlenOra
and Lake Teslin is in good shape
and steamers plying between
Lake Teslin and Dawson City, it
is possible for any number of
men to make the trip from the
Sound to Fort Yukon in from
sixteen to twenty days, with open
water as late as November. The
completion of the railroad from
Glenora to Teslin will shorten
that time five or six days. They
should have gone via the Stikeen
River route.

Food Riots in Alaska.

Food riots are feared at Fort Yukon
and other up river points, growing out
of the failure of the transportation COM
panies to get supplies in there on the
prevailing low water.
Acting on instructions received from
Washington, Major General Merriam
will quickly despatch battery of artil-
lery to ST. Michaels, the officer in
charge having instructions to proceed
at once up the Yukon river to Fort Yu-
kon and open a military post for the
coming winter The expedition will
also carry large quantity of extra pro-
visions and supplies to relieve distress.
When St. Michaels is reached, the
commanding officer will promptly levy
on any river boats he may fad, selling
them if necessary, and will transport
his troops and supplies to their destinar
ton with all possible dispatch. A form
of military government will be estab-
lished and good order maintained in
Alaska, even if it requires the services
of the soldiers and artillery.
The above Associated Press
dispatch refers to fact which
has already been mentioned in

Rules for the Navigation of
Stikeen River

The Department OF Marine and Fisheries OF
Canada has made arrangements for u system
of signalling at Little Canyon. on the Stikeen
ately after the opening OF navigation q station
will be established at each end OF the canyon. at
which signals will be displayed for the guidance
OF vessels.
white ball. or disc, hoisted to the top OF n
mast will denote that the channel is clear, and
that vessel may enter the canyon from the
end ut which the ball is displayed.
A black drum or square will denote that the
channel is not clear and vessel must not
enter the CANYON on any consideration when the
drum is displayed
The drum and ball shown together will be n
signal between the two stations for informa-
ton OF the Signalmrn. and no vessel may enter
the canyon when this signal is shown.
In the event OF vessels approaching the can
yon from both ends simultaneously. the up
ward bound vessel will be held below the can
yon until the descending vessel has run the
canyon.
One prolonged blast OF u steamers whistle
will be II request to the signalmen to show the
all clear signal.
adam territory, II II vessel is warping up, a
downward bound vessel must keep clear of her
and her warping lines, stopping and tying up if
necessary to prevent collision.
In the event OF two vessels simultaneously
approaching place where warping Is required
the upward bound vessel must allow the down.
bound vessel to pass before running out her
warping line. Two long blasts followed by two
short blasts OF q steamers whistle will be Il
signal that she is actually engaged in warping.
These rules will be established by Order in
Council under the provisions OF Chapter 20
Revised Statutes OF Canada, and amending
orders and will have the force OF law. They
are not intended to SuperSede, but are to be
an addition to the ordinary rule OF the road.

WOnderful-ifTruc,

A modest chemist living iu Los An
geles, California, has discovered a salts
which may succeed all existing meth
DDS of supplying ice. A thimblefull is
Theoretically sealed in nickel-silver
receptacle about three-eighth of an
inch in diameter and two inches long,
which soldier may carry by the dozen
in his haversack. 1t weighs about as
much as a cartridge. Dropped into u
canteen of water it converts the con-
tents into ice in an incredibly short
time. A larger one will freeze bucket
of water, and still larger tub. AS
the salts do not come in contact with
the water, the latter remains unpoluted.
A lawyer controlling the discovery has
gone to New York, where he hopes to
interest the government and have it
adopted by the army.

Extremely large white chenille dots
are seen on colored yelling.
White shirt waists trimmed with en-
broidery for tiny boys.
Embroidered chifrons are being used
for wells and hat trimmings.
Many of the new coats have the re-
vers turned back and covered with lace
Sleeves are made smaller and without
trimming, except at the wrist.
Suits of cheviot, covert and cloth, are
braided, while silk and cashmere are
ruffled or tucked.
Pink is the color that leads just now
for evening wear. When prettily man
aged no other shade lends itself to such
charming contrasts.
Shaded feather boas and also coarse
white net ruches wrought in big che
mile dots are much used.
The garterless stocking is the latest
thing in the way of hosiery. 1t is made
with eyelet holes on either side, which
are crossed and laced like shoe. The
stockings keep up admirably and are
pretty to look at
A dress of very sheer material is
trimmed with narrow satin ribbon put
on in groups.
Among the favorites for summer wear
are tailor made white pique skirts.
They are usually worn with white per-
Gale or lawn shirt waists.
Black and white lace is a popular
combination. A very successful style
is black lace yoke band, with the yoke
itself and collar, of white lace.
A dress of white and pink organdie
has the skirt entirely covered with mar
row ruffles, edged with lace. The waist
is made baby fashion and the guimpe is
made of the same silk as the lining or
underskirt.
Linen dining and toilet tables pieces
embroidered with silk are stylish.
The number of different flowers worn
on one hat is startling. For example,
hat in sailor shape had roses, violets,
forgetmenots and lilies of the valley as
trimming.
Blouse suits of plain and faucy weave
are made with revers, belt and apron,
with large buttons for fastening. and
finished with braid garniture.

over, the newspapers are forced
to look elsewhere for news, and
among the subjects to receive at
tentiOn is Alaska and the gold
fields of the Northwest territory.
The press, generally, predicts
that another rush to the north
will take place during the com
ing fall and winter. Comparisons
are freely made between the am
cunt of gold taken out OF Alaska
and the amount taken out OF other
gold producing countries during
the first years after discovery,
and Alaska does not suffer by
the comparison. On the contrary,
Alaska stands at the head of the
list, having produced more gold
this year than was ever produced
by any country in a like stage OF
development. California stands
at the head of gold producing
states, and California did not
reach the maximum of her pro-
duction until ten years after the
famous rush in 40. Considering
the disadvantages of climate, AL
aska will do exceeding we'll if in
ten years she can equal the pro-
ductiOn of California in 1880.
Indications point to Alaska, not
only equaling the production of
California but exceeding it, and
no doubt remains that Alaska is
the greatest gold country ever
discovered. All who come here
will not find gold, but those who
do find it will remain, and gradu
ally the country will be opened
up to the production of other met
ais than gold. Copper, iron, coal,
zinc and other metals exist here,
and in time they will become fac
tors in our mineral production.
Already companies are being or
ganized to work copper mines in
Alaska, and who knows what the
next few years may develop. 1t
behoves those of our citizens who
know what is best for their own
interest, to work unitedly for the
general good of all, and for the
rest; be patient. The world was
not made in day, and those who
expected to find a fortune await
ing them when they landed from
the steamer on Alaska soil, with
out any effort on their part, had
better have remained at home.
