MAKING COPY IN THE KLoNDIKE.

growing up TO need some day an edu-
cation, and mother love would gladly
put upon her beautiful clothing, would
lavish toll to save little Doris such a
life of hardships as her mothers.
So in June last year, without her
daughter. Mrs. Wright went to Daw-
son, and thence pushed on to Rampant
City. At first she was a gold seeker
like the rest, but met little success.
II was in January, when mining was
stopped by the cold. that she conceived
the idea of issuing a paper, There
was no white paper in town, so the
first numbers of the Whirlpool were
typewriter on reddish brown wrap
ping paper and stitched together on
the sewing machine. Now all those
early difficulties are passed. The pa
per is printed on durable manila, and
little Doris is there 10 help work off
the increased edition.
Mrs. Wright intends 10 stick by
Rampant City until she has made her
pile. OF course she has some mining
interests which may pan out well.
The Whirlpool is brightly written,
Here are some local items:

Woman.

Mrs. Cara z. Wright. formerly Of
san Francisco. Is the only woman ed
itor and publisher in the Klondike re-
gion. Her paper, the Rampant City
Whirlpool. was established last jan
uary as a monthly publication Of e
pages. il has already doubled in size,
and has a bigger circulation at one
dollar per copy than the entire poPu-
lation Of the town, so maHF papers
are sent home by the miners
Mrs. Wright doesn't get her fingers
black muSsing round with inky type;
no. indeed, She builds her paper with
two very feminine tools, the type
writer and the sewing machine, with
the sole help OF heI ten-year-old
daughter Doris.
For some years Mrs. Wright, who is
a widow, had supported her little girl
and herself by stenographic work in
san Francisco. With her sewing ma
chine she made at home all the gar
ments Of both.
But she could earn no more than
bare living. Typewriters' wages
are low, and there was the little girl

Unable TO Pronounce II.

The neighbors Of a certain well'known
Memphis Irish family say that the good
housewife and her lord never know what
domestic discord is except when the old man
goes home slightly in his cups. Then there
IS trouble, and plenty of it, for the old lady
is fire and tow and she says she has con-
Sistently tried for a score Of years to get
"Moike to quit it." The storms, according
to the story, have grown less violent of late
years, and for that matter the tipsy periods
of "Moike" are not Of such frequent recur'
renee as formerly Not long ago, SO the
story goes, the old man went home pretty
well tanked, and his wife met him,
"Yis," she said, we're a-comin' home
agin, an t.that dhrunk My, my, 0, my,

RATES GRANTED
SANTA FE TO GIVE ONE THIRD

Delegation Waited Upon the Officials

The farmers in the southern and west
ern Kansas wheat belt have been sue
cessful in getting the Santa Fe railroad
company to announce d rate Of one

Blaine, prominent man at Pratt. kan
sas, was in the city last week and an
nouneed that it would take az least 800
imported hands TO harvest the crop in
that district alone and Sedgwick and
Sumner counties will need similar num-
Der. As most of the help will necessarily
have TO come from the eastern part or
the state and Missouri it is essential
that rate should be obtained, as the
profit on their labors after the railroad
fare has been paid would be meager.
Yesterday number Of delegates in at
tendance at the serni-cerltennial meeting

SWARM OF BEES CORRALlED
Had Everything The Own Way ON
North Hahn Yesterday.

One Of the sights on North Main street
yesterday morning was q swarm of honey
bees that had no doubt escaped from a
hive There was a whole swarm of them
and they were seeking refuge most any
old place, Ia some instances down the
backs of pedestrians. For awhile they
had everything their way. Someone sug-
gested fight for the lack of knowing
what other remedy TO offer, but the more
conservative element advised against
such a course, not because they were in
sympathy with the bees. but because of
certain experiences had with them when
they were boys wearing short knee pants
and a thin shirt waist
After debating how the nuisance should
be abated and allow the merchants in
that locality 70 do a little business B. S
Hovey came along and found the pedes-
trians were walking as far around the
bees as they could. Mr.. Hovey then Sc
cured a small limb of a tree and the lit.
tie busy bees Immediately clustered about
the branches. A box was secured and
the swarm put in and taken away with
out injury to anybody.
