CLARKsBURG was to have held a
celebration in honor of the returning
soldiers on Thursday night. The
event was expected to be one of the
warmest things that ever happened
but for some reason it was aban-
doned and the soldiers will have to
take for granted the warmth of the
welcome that has been extended to
them. Fairmont however will have
real good time on next Wednes-
day.

A NUMBER of icicles have fallen on
the streets in the last couple of days
and some very narrow escapes have
resulted. A number OF the pieces of
ice have been large enough to kill a
passerby and that none have been
hurt has been more due to accident
than anything else. The town au-
thorities asked people to knock
these off before they became danger
GUS but no one paid the slightest at
tention to the request.
FARMERS, look out for the pill
sign swindle. An agent comes
around, secures permission to tack
up pill signs, and then gets the
farmer to sign an agreement not to
tear the signs down for ninety days.
These agreements turn up after
wards as 90-day notes for $500 each.
The best thing to do, farmers, when
one OF these gentlemen ask you to
sigu an agreement, is to kick him off
your place and throw his signs after
him. Be sure to kick him with a
No. 10 cow skin.
THERE was bread famine in Con-
nellsville on Saturday. The cold
weather was the cause. People who
bake their own bread found that it
would not raise on Friday and Satur-
day. Those who did succeed In get
ting it baked found that it was not
good, and much was thrown out. So
the people depended on the bakers to
furnish them with bread. The bakers
did not know what large demand
there was going to be, and so did not
bake much over their usual amount.
On Saturday afternoon the orders be-
gan to come ia. Soon the stock was
exhausted. The grocerymen were the
first to discover the shortage. They
ordered more stock from the bakers.
Then the bakers began to get crowd
ed. They in turn ordered from other
bakers, and by evening bread was not
to be had at any price. One baker
said this morning that he could have
disposed of 500 loaves on Saturday
evening II he had had them. Alarge
stock was baked for to-day as it Isl
likely that the demand VIII continue.

LIVING IN THE KLoNp1KE.

One of the pioneer gold seekers, pr. Sweeney, was fortunate in meeting with George w. Carmacl1, the discoverer of the Klondike, and from him he gath cred much interesting information con- cerning the habits of the Indian tribes on the Yukon and the white men who long before the discovery of the treas ure hidden beneath the frozen moss and them and shared the hardships of their daily life.
 Some of the things that Carnlack told me-" said Dr. Sweeney yesterday, were entirely new to me, and all very inter- esting. One of the things I have always been anxious to know was how the white men lived who hunted and trap ped along the Yukon in the days when it was thousands of miles to the trading posts and civilization. Carmack ex- plained to me.
 I've were compelled,' he said, to do just as the Indians did. In the summer time, besides game and fish, we ate ber- ries, for Alaska is the home of all sorts of berries. And besides these we ob tained other substitutes for the vegeta- bles of civilization. The principal of these were grass roots, certain small bulbs or tubers, and the inside bark of various trees
 :" Tn the winter we ate fish, meat and berries, which the squaws dried in the summer, and stored away. Then also the little bulbs I have mentioned came in very handily. I have forgotten now what they were called, but they, as all old Alaska men know, form the prin- cipal food of the timber squirrels of that country during the winter It was by rifling the hoards of these little animals that we obtained our supply of the bulbs in the winter. Their hoards are always to be found in solitary spruce tree in a thicket of stunted pines. That was the way in which we located them. The reason for this never knew. As a sub stitute for bread-of course, the Indians then had no flour-We ate species of pudding made of the blood of the game we killed, boiled with dried berries and sometimes with the little bulbs from the squirrel hoards'
 q asked Carmack how the Indians in those days obtained salt for their meat. Every one knows that, to a white man at least, salt is a necessity, and not mere f1avoring matter. In answer Car mack told me something that was en- tirely new to me. He said that the In- dians made it a practice not to throw away the water in which they boiled their meat, but allowed it to remain in the kettle In course of short time, be told me. the water or broth would become extremely salty and could then be maintained at whatever degree of salineness deemed desirable by the ad dition of fresh water to replace some of the salt broth dipped out and thrown away. ."-Seattle st-Intelligencer.
