do you?" she had asked, when the trip
had been suggested. and with a little
pleading look in her eyes which was
irresistible, especially as he had not
yet the absolute right to give or with
hold permission. IN only be gone
three weeks, dear. and then-if you
still have a mind to-you may take me
and keep me forever, and forever, and
forever, A large order, Laurie! Shall
you want me for so long. DO you
think?"
Ord, never a backward lover, had
answered that question by quietus to
the sweet lips which spoke it.
He had gone to see her off on board
the Orchid, and she had stopped in the
middle of one of her airy whirls with
the kitten and piece of scarlet rib

The patterns were ready, but never
more thought poor heart-broken Lau-
rie would May come back to him again.

A race between stag and a locOmo-
tive on the railroad was lately Witness
ed near Labelle, Can. The engineer
noticed the stag on the track, about 200
feet ahead, and he blew a warning
whistle. The animal started on a run,
keeping to the track, and continued the
race for three miles, then gracefully
bounded aside until the locomotive had
passed.

What the Bride Said.

An English rural clergyman says
that one day a bride startled him by
promising, in what she supposed to be
the language of the prayer book, to
take her husband Ito ave and to old
from this day forni't for betterer
horse, for richerer power, in siggerness
health, to love cherries and to bay"
What meaning this extraordinary vow
conveyed to the woman's own mind,
the incumbent said, baffied him to con-
lecture.

The story of "Peter, the wild boy" is
told on the brass erected to his mem
ory in the parish church of North
church, Hertfordshire, England. The
celebrated Doctor Arbuthnot made
special study of Peter, but failed to
make anything of him, and, when the
novelty of his appearance had worn
Off and he had been induced to wear
the garb of civilization, he was pen
stoned off and sen. to the village of
Northchurch. But he retained his vag-
abond habits and gave his guardian
much trouble by wandering off to dis
tant counties. AS he could not speak
or make himself understood of stran-
gers, this propensity for straying
brought him into trouble, and he was
sometimes arrested as an obstinate
beggar who would not give an account
OF himself. Thus it was that a brass
collar, engraved with his name and
address, was fitted to his neck. He is
said to have been fond of music, and
he used to dance to express his delight
at the sound of musical instruments,
His tombstone is still standing near
the doorway of Northchurch church
When he died he was ~ years old.

A great many Episcopal clergymen
probably would sympathize with the
English bishop who said recently:
THE two things Of which l am the
most tired are The Church's One
Foundation and cold chicken. The
hymn seems always to be chosen
wherever | go, and kind hostesses,
with quite extraordinary unanimity,
provide cold chicken for luncheon"

The figure of Britannia on the coin
of the realm is neither a fancy figure
nor taken from the antique. Accord
ing to the historian Grammont, it is
a full-length portrait of Frances The
resa Stuart, Duchess of Lennox, paint
ed by Lely, and still extant at Letting
ton Castle, East Lothian, Scotland. 1t
was Charles II. who caused this lady
to be represented as the emblematical
figure of Britannia.

Wood rnlr and OnIck Actlon.

Wood has had an important inhu.
encc on the papermaking industry.
Young sapllngS which before were
not worth cutting down for fuel. can
now be converted into pasteboard. A
trcc was cut down in Galveston. Tex,
at 10 O'Clock in the morning and con
verted first into pulp and then into
paper by 6 O'Clock in the evening. At
6 o'clock the next morning it was be-
ing distributed as a daily paper. Car
and tram wheels have been made of
wood pulp, and it is taking the place

Paper Sails for ships.
A process has been discovered by
which sails Of vessels of all kinds can
be made out of paper pulp. and it is
claimed that they serve quite as we'll
as canvas, aud are very much cheaper.
They swell and flap in the wind like
the genuine old-fashioned article, and
are supposed to be untearable.

The r1eIIen Mining & Manufacturing Co.

The mines around Seward City are going to show up we'll this season. The ore in that section is of the best and new stamps will commence dropping with the spring thaw.
 The Mellen Mining and Manufacture ing Go. has a mill back of Seward City about one and a half miles. The fin ishing touches are now being put ~on the plant and the twenty stamps will commence dropping about the first of June, and perhaps earlier. The miners are drifting on the ledge. The mill will be run by water power.
 The News man will visit the mines around Seward City soon for the pur- pose of writing up the condition of the mining interests in that part of the country.
 Judge Mellen is now in Juneau look ing after the interests of the company. He was seen by News man a few days ago and is authority for the facts stated.

The Humboldt on the Rocks.

Mir. J. B. Prather was a passenger on the Humboldt on her run from Skag- way to this place Friday night.
 He was asked about the Humbol be- ing on the rocks and made the follow ing statement: About fifteen minutes of F o'clock Friday night the Humboldt ran onto the rocks on Vanderbilt reef. The pi- lots had not changed shifts more than three minutes. It was a very dark night and the wind was blowing hard. We were on the rocks about one and half hours: foated off on high tide"
 "How close to land was it where the Humboldt was on the rocks?" was asked.
 "About one and half miles was the nearest land. Scared? Yes, we all felt shaky. No, the boat was not much ln- jured, she did not ieak any"

Jonsey's Organ.

Jonsey is one of our city teamsters. He has been here for long time and knows everybody and everybody knows Jonsey. Now Jonsey has a good wife and several interesting children; and from the shape of his head and the twinkle of his eye, we must say there is music in Jonsey's soul. This love for music has, no doubt, been imparted to the children, and, after so long a time, Jonsey bought an organ in the east and it was loaded on the Topeka at Seattle on her last trip up. Of course you know what hap pened to the organ. The News man was down at the dock when the box was unloaded from the Al-Ki. Jonsey, his good wife and the children were there. They were all standing around the organ box. It had not been opened. It was in the water about a week, and Jonsey and his interesting family will never hear the sweet tones with which it was once endowed.
 Gan 1 have it for my play house If its swelled?" said one of the little girls to her mother.
 But there was no reply. What a dis appointment was the loss of the organ to those dear little children, and to the parents, too.

Congressional 0rafterS.

The Masks press, with no exception we believe, is opposed to the laws re. gently enacted for this district, so far as the same relates to the licensing of liuuor dealers and those engaged in trade.
 Some of the papers take the position that the law is unconstitutional and that the courts will set it aside. It will take from one to three years to test the constitutionality of the law and during that time dealers would be compelled to pay the license money, so that but little would be gained, except by the lawyers.
 We are informed that Gov. Brady was asked by the committee if the law would be satisfactory to the people and that he evaded the question. If no ob- lection was made, although our inter- ests were supposed to be represented by the Governor of the district, con- gress is certainly not to be censured for giving us the law.
 Of course, enacting the law and en- forcing itare two different propositions.
 Enforcing prohibition in Alaska was given up some time ago. The senti- ment of the people must back up law or it's enforcement will be failure. The committee that interrogated Gov. Brady on this question knew this. He should have told the committee that the law would not only be unsatisfac- tory, but its enforcement would be doubtful.
 Whether the people will submit to the courageous graft, as the Skagway Budget calls it, remains to be seen.

Two Men Libeled.

Supt. Robinson and Judge Vim de- nv the impeachment that they stole, or are trying to steal street. We are pleased to give publicity to the state ment of these two gentlemen that they are honest men. We have known MT. Robinson for quite while. He is the representative of big steamship com pany-a big corporation-and to aG- cuse such man of stealing anything, he can't carry off, is simply ridiculous: As to Judge Winn-he is an eX-trlal Judge and a successful lawyer. He is the attorney for the steamship com pany. and as honest as the best grade of lawyers generally are. We decline to believe that the Judge would steal a street without further proof. Both of these gentlemen are readers of the News and this in itself recommends them to us as honest upright men.

Good Bye.

MT. T. G. Quinn of Douglas Island left for his former home, San Francis co, last Thursday. He has had charge of the work of putting in the electric appliances at the new "3OO" stamp mill at Treadwell. He is one of the most competent electricians that ever came to Alaska. MT. Quinn is splendid, good fellow, and he leaves hosts of friends to regret his departure. He eX- poets to go to Paris soon and follow his profession while the exposition build ings are being constructed. The News joins with his many friends in wishing him success.

Its Injustice.
Skagway Budget.

Skagway Budget.
 A prominent business man of Skag- way has received the following letter from a Wisconsin congressman:
 q send you a copy of the criminal code for Alaska, passed in the late ses- sion, and particularly draw attention to the license provided for all business other than that of liquor. This part ot the law must have been added by the conferees and passed without the knowl- edge of the members at the very last hour. All this seems very harsh on the business men of Alaska, and the same Is unheard of in other localities, as Alaska gets no benefit therefrom, but all money is turned into the treasury at Washington. If you were permitted to use this money in municipal improve ments. it would not seem so unreasona- ble. Some one has certainly misrepre- sented the wants OfAlaska, otherwisei it would not have passed in its present form. The bill that ought to have passed but failed is the one providing for civil government. It passed the senate and house with amendments, among other things giving SkagWay term of court in August, municipal government, power to levy taxes, and other provisions that Alaska needs. When congress meets in Decent Der some one who is not particularly and Selfishly interested in some private scheme of his own, and acquainted with Alaska ought to visit Washington and represent its wants properly. Can l be of service to yOur people,?

 Mr. Angus Mackay temporarily drop ped bis title as architect and builder last Friday for that of foreman of the Seven Hundred stamp mill. He has just completed the mill and everything was ready for the stamps to commence dropping; the water was turned onto the big wheel and everything moved off as nice and easy as the foreman could wish for. The huge bins were full of ore and about 40 stamps were put to work, out of the 120 that are all ready to do their share as soon as the water commences to flow in greater quanti- ties from the mountains.
 The Seven Hundred is the first mill below the old Treadwell. It is supplied with water power only. It is model little mill. We say little, because a 12O stamp mill is a small concern com pared with the old Treadweu or the new one that will start up in a few weeks.
 Supt. Corbus has not yet named a foreman for the 700. The honors of that position have been divided between the Supt. and MT. Mackay

They Flock Together.

The Commercial hotel of San Fran cisco is the headquarters for the Alas ka miners. The Commercial is splen- did hotel, but just how it came to be the "roosting place" for all the miners we can't explain. If you happen to be in Frisco and want to know anything about Alaska mines or miners, if you can't get the information you want at the Commercial you can't get it any where.

The Budget Speaks Out.
Skagway Budget.

Skagway Budget.
 The idea that the new law cannot be dead-lettered is all a humbug. The peo- pie are power. The people of Alaska will govern Alaska. Public sentiment is stronger than any law. Public senti- ment is against the attempted govern ment graft, and no power in Alaska can enforce it. A jury of twelve men could not be found in Skagway that would convict any man for violating so unjust a law.
