WILL SEEK FORTUNE.
Seattle Girl to Go to Skaguay in a
Tiny Catboat
Daring Voyage Proposed by Miss
Carrie Hope, a Pretty Young Wom-
an-Win Wear Fur nloomers
on Her Journey.

il would be a daring man indeed who
would essay TO sail from Seattle to
Skaguay, Alaska, In am open catboat.
IN fact, it would be am extremely diff
cult matter TO find one, no matter how
experienced a sailor. to undertake so
hazardous journey. But, lacking a
man, Seattle has young girl vino de-
clmes she viii do just This thing. Miss
Carrie Hope, miss recently out of her
teens, pretty, determined, perverse and
an accomplished sailor, has her plans
so far completed that she is seeking
companion of her own sex to 90 with
her.
Miss Hope has her vessel an ready,
and says she will cruise mp the inhos-
pitable western coast of skaguay in
search of fame and fortune. She is
aware of the dangers of her undertak-
ing, but this does not influence her to
abandon it. If she fails to acquire for
tune-is not lost on the way-she will
certainly gain fame by her exploit. II
is no light thing to sail up the western
coast i'm a good, stout steamer. This
thing of taking a mere catboat with one
small three-cornered sail and trusting
TO the sea not to swallow vessel and
cargo is to take a long chance. So If
the girl wins she will have fame and a
fine story to relate.
If the girl were a spinster of an un-
certain age, scrawny and unagreeable
to gaze upon, her project would attract
but a limited amount of notice. II
would be set down to a vagary of intel
lect. But she is fair TO see and IA
yorite among her friends. If she were
gaunt and skinny, as some maidens are,
then it would matter little to the
unromantic whether she won out or
not. But there is a pleasing plumpness,
q freshness of coloring and a sauciness
Of bearing about her which attract So

pie of the Sound city.
1t has been said that she is perverse,
This is all because she refuses to pay
any attention TO discussions of friends.
These all know she will be drowned,
that there is absolutely no chance of her
reaching Skaguay in her tiny craft; but
she goes right ahead getting ready for
the perilous voyage. She says her mind
is made up, and that means much to
self-willed young women. But she has
one difficulty on her hands which she
has so far been unable TO adjust She
wants a companion. and can find none.
She is securing the city and coast
for volunteers TO help her keep house
on the little catboat. But however
eager volunteers of the other sex may
be TO go to the Philippines girls Of a
suitable age with the requisite daring

deed, it looks as if the young girl will be
forced to enjoy her own society on the
trip. But if it should come TO that,
she says. she will go just the same, for
go she will, with companion or, fail
ing TO secure one, without her.
Miss Hope is an accomplished sailor,

has much practical experience i'm nau-
tical matters. Still IL has been repre-
sented TO her that this does not lessen

She is tired of staying on land and
waiting for the tide TO turn and bring
good luck her way. So she will go to
the tide and travel with it--or against
it, as the case may be.
Most girls would be planning new
summer gowns just about this time of
the year. Miss Hope is cutting out
for hloomers and scrutinizing the sea-
worthiness of the boat upon which she
has spent all her pin money.

IMPORTANT FACTOR.
United States Must Not be Overlooked
 in International Affairs.

London January 11-At the semi-annual meeting of the Union Bank of London to- day, MT. Schuester, the governor, in the course of his speech, said the United States had become a most important fac tor, which must not be overlooked in fore casting the future. He added that the re- markable activity in trade in the United States after successful war and pros- pective new markets, together with abundant harvests, had created an unpre- cedented trade balance in favor of that country which had already made itself felt on this side, and for the first time he be- 1ieved it might be said that 1t was not Europe that had financed the United States, but New York that had financed Europe. During the last few months the United States had lent a considerable amount of cash and its discounts in Lon don and Berlin and it's power to obtain gold hence for very large amounts whenever 1t chose must not be lost sight of.
