Truelaen at West Duluth.

Mayor Truelsen at West Du
luth Monday night had a large
audience. The people listened
attentively, but the majority
especially of those who were
his enthusiastic supporters In
former campaigns, found little
to justify a change of front
His deserved denunciations OF
the gas and water company, on
previous occasions, here, al
least, always had been ap.
p1auded to the echo. Now
however, the people sat in
stolid silence, the efforts of the
misguided claquers to stir up
a little enthusiasm only serv-
ing to emphasize the unsym-
pathetic attitude of the au-
dience. There was such
change from the bold, defiant
Truelsen of a year or two ago
to the cringing, apologetic ad-
vocate of the gas and water
company then addressing them,
that men we're attempted to
ask: "Who is this? This isn't
the bluff old fgher we knew a
while ago as Truelsen?"
And why shouldn't they so
inquire? There was not a point
in his argument that had not
been made by his opponents in
former campaigns. The bur
den of his song was the story
everybody was familiar with:
They'll take it into the courts;
they'll put up stiff fight, and
in the end we will find it
cheaper to pay their price. The
terror of a long legal contro-
versy, the expense, the embar-
rassments of the city, the ad-
vantages possessed by the
company-these, the very same
arguments that he had so val
iantly put to flight in other
campaigns, were the instru-
ments with which he sought
to conjure up the fears of the
people in the interests of the
purchase.

Practical Information for Klcndikers.
What will no doubt prove the most
practical and best illustrated magazine
article on the Klondike gold regions
that has yet been published is an
nounced to appear IN Frank Leslie'e
popular monthly for February. 1t is
written by Henry Clay Colver, we'll
known resident of Seattle, and treats
the subject in a simple yet exhaustive
manner. After describing the various
expeditions that have set out from Seat
tic for Dawson City, the author gives
some valuable and interesting informa-
tion to those about to embark for the
gold regions, including list of neces-
sary provisions, utensils, etc., to last a
man for year. This article is supple
mented by one giving general descrip-
ton of Alaska, it's resources, people and
customs, by R. H. Heron. There will
be more than thirty fine half-tone illus
tratiQns of scenes and people in the gold
regions and other parts of the territory,
and handsome map Of Alaska, 17x23
inches, showing the location of the
places of interest along the Yukon and
the Klondike. Those who are prepar-
ing to take advantage of the opportuni-
ties presented in Alaska, and those who
are only Indirectly interested in the new
.Eldorado, should by all means read
these articles.

At THE DOOR OF THE
YEAR.
The corridors OF Time

The corridors OF Time
Are full OF doors-the portals Of closed years:
We enter them no more, though bitter tears
Beat hard az ainst them, and we hear the chime
OF lost dreams dirgeike, in behind them ring.
At memory's opening.
But one door stands aiar-
The New Years: while golden chain Of days
h olds it half-shut The eager foot delays
That it presses o its thresholds might bar;
And fears that shrink. and hopes that shou
Around it wait and crowd.
1t shuts back the unknown,
And dare we truly welcome one IN ore year.
Who down the past mocking laughter hear
From idle aims like wandering breezes blown:
We whose large aspirations dimmed and shranl
Till the years scroll was blank:
We pause beside the door,
Thy year, O God. how shall we enter in:
How shall we thence thy hidden treasure win"
Shall we return in beggary as before,
When Thou art near at hand, with infinite
wealth.
Wisdom and heavenly health'
The footsteps of IL Child
Sound close beside us! Listen He will speak,
His birthday bells have hardly rung a week,
Yet hasHe trOd the worlds press undefled
"Come with Mel hear him through his smiling
say,
Behold l am the Way!''
Against the door His face
Shines as the SUM- His touch is a commands;
The years unfold before His baby hand!
The beauty OF His presence fills all space.
ENTER through Me-" he saith, nor wander
more,''
For 10! l am the Door,.
And the doors openeth He,
The new-t orn Christ, the Lord of the New Year,
The threshold OF our locked hearts standeth
near;
And while he gives us back loves rusted key,
Our future on us with His eyes has smiled
Even as q little child.

Jan. is not comparable as public
holiday with Christmas as to the uni
versatility or antiquity Of it's observance.
Before 1864 the year began on March
25. The change in the calendar was
made in that year for Great Britain by
an act Of parliament, and we inherited
the existing custom Of marking the be-
ginning Of the year from the mother
country. The day was not observed in
colonial times with the formality which
has marked it's observance in later years.
After the colonies had adjusted business
affairs to the new date, the 1st Of Janu.
ary grew in Importance and in course Of
time became legal holiday.
An interesting incident of the change
of the calendar in 1859 was the drop.
ping of II days, between Sept. 2 and
ID, giving that month only 10 days, tc
bring the English into harmony with
the Gregorian calendar The omission
Of the II days attracted great interest,
and long notice Of the proposed innova.
ton was given in the newspapers Of the
period, 50 that business affairs could be
accommodated to what was called the
new style" The act Of parliament cor.
recting the calendar also ordained that
the years 1900, 1900, 2100, 22O0, $500
or any hundredth year, except only
every fourth hundredth, shall not be
deemed leap years, but shall be consid-
cred common years of 365 days only and
that the years 5000, 24o0, $500 and
every fourth hundredtb shall be leap
years, consisting Of 366 days.
Every year whose number is divisible
by four is leap year, except only when
the number ends with 90, in which case
it is leap year only when the preceding
figures are divisible by four: By this
rule the year 1900 will not be a leap
year, while the year 1000 will be. By
this ingenious arrangement, says a
writer, "our almanacs are kept in har
mony as nearly as may be with the great
clock Of the skies, the only perfect time
piece" All the old colonial literature
for scme time after the change referred
to gave dates under both the old and
new styles to prevent confusion.-Phila'
