WHAT PINGREE HAS DOME.
Politics and tho Lumber Trade OF
Michigan Discussed.

State Senator Fred X. Baker, of Me-
nominee, Mich. an administration Repub-
a guest of the Rainier-Grand. He Is in
the lumber business in Michigan, and his
visit here is in connection with that trade.
II was absent from home when Gov.
Pingree called the extraordinary session Of
the legislature which adjourned yester-
day." he said In an interview, but the
fact that the governors taxation measure
was killed in the senate was a good thing.
Gov. Pingree Is DESTROYS Of piling the bur-
den of taxation on the corporations, but
small manufacturer in Michigan is receiv-
ing the heaviest taxation at this time,
while the small land owners receive more
people. All those who have differed in
opinion from the governor he has under
taken to assail.
Gov. Pingree's administration has been
of little good. 1t has practically amounted
to nothing, unless you take into consdera-
ton prospective results from taxation agi-
"Pingree will probably be candidate
for reelection to the office Of governor on
the Populist ticket next year. 1t was fear

"The lumber business in Michigan is in

KLONDIKE SHORT on BEEF.
The Estimated supply Cannot Last
Longer Than January 1.

The Klondike IL threatened with a seri-
Gus beef famine. Authentic information
regarding the shortage of fresh beef was
received yesterday by j. D. Thagard, for
merry proprietor Of the Hotel Northern,
from Peter Buckholz, one of the leading
butchers Of Dawson. The writer made the
blunt statement that within less than
thirty days from the date Of the letter.
December 3, there would not be pound Of
fresh meat I'm the metropolis of the great
gold camp. Beef, Buckholz stated, then
retailed for 81 per pound, and very little
was to be had at that exorbitant price.
The situation Is the more serious from
the fact that moose and cariboo are not
available and up to this time 1t has not
been practical to ship in fresh beef or
pork over the Yukon ice. "Since the
Yukon is settling up in a mining way"
Thagard observed, 1.-The moose and caribeo
have taken to other localities They have
moved on out into the wilds each year a
little farther and are becoming more and
more inaccessible. Even the Indians are
finding it more difficult to procure moose
meat, and 1 should not be surprised to
hear that the herds are being depleted:
since they have already materially de-
creased in numbers with the advent Of
miners on the Yukon"
So far az known in Seattle, there Ia
but one fresh meat shipment to the Klon-
dixie of any size contemplated. McNamer,
an Oregon cattleman. expects to ship five
Seattle steamers within a week, but under
the most favorable conditions he cannot
hope to reach Dawson short Of thirty or
forty days.

vided for a number of destitute men. Sew
eral men were found work and are doing
we'll.
During November 500 was collected in
the office for this branch of the work and

AT the time the malady OF Ludwig
II, the mad King of Bavaria, was at
its worst, he gave orders that thirty OF
his finest horses should be put 10 the
best condition possible for q race,"
writes Professor J. II. Gore in the
Ladies' Home Journal. "When the
report came that no further improve
ments could be made, lie had them
brought into an open field where every
conceivable form OF making de-
vice had been stationed. The horses
were tied to posts, and the King from
an elevated stand gave the signal that
started the fare of trumpets, tho
booming of cannon, the firing Of
bombs, and other outlandish noises.
The horses reared, plunged, struggled
to get free, and finally breaking loose,
started in the widest OF gallops from
this bedlam. But toward whatever
corner OF the field they fed they were
stopped by noises just as terrifying,
and sent to another quarter to be fright
ened again and again. When the
horses became too tired to run we'll,
the King found the spectacle uninter-
esting and ordered the orgy to cease.
By this cruel freak the Royal stables
lost number Of their most valuable
animals"

"Mr. Skies, here, as the evidence
clearly proves. did not break into

Narroves.. Street in the worlI.

"Kitty Witches" Row, Great Var
mouth, can justly claim to lie the
narrowest street in the world, the
entrance at one end being only tSenty-
nine inches and at the other ffty-six
inches.
1t gives some idea of the width
when one mentions that neighbors can
shake hands and put out each others
candles across tho street. Why these
rows have been 80 constructed has
given rise to good deal of discussion;
some writer's give the reason that
when there was very high tide the
water might flow through them;
others, in the event Of an invasion
they would prove ON excellent means
of defence, or that the ground plans
of the rows were suggested by the
fishermen ssnets which, spread on the
Denes to dry, had narrow pathway
left between them which represented
the rows. Yarmouth has las rows,
and their total length exceeds seven
miles, "Kitty Witches" being the
most interesting and the nayrowest Of
all.-~PhilaaeIphia Inquiries.

Expensive Spots.

Two mothers of large families werc
discussing domestic matters one day,
and the younger Of the two spoke
with sigh of the way in which her
table cloths were spotted through the
daily mishaps OF her two boys.

have helped my boys to be careful at
the table," said the older woman, "it
is tho plan on which my mother
brought US up. and Two never found
O better.
"The rule In our family" she pro-
ceeded, when urged by her friend to
explain her method, sis this: Any
one who makes spot on the table
cloth must cover it with piece of
money, and the piece must be largo
enough to hide the stain entirely; no
rims are allowed! The children have
to provide the coins out of their own
probationary. The rule applies to
their father and me as we'll as to
them. The sum goes to buy new
table linen.

there has been less and less. This is
