~rh, Nome vold belt is divided into

The Nome gold belt 10 divided into
numi,er of districts, known as the
Nome. Bonanxa, Eldorado. Discovery,
Blake. Zig Four. Sinook. Cripple Gran
ite, Fnirview, Cape York and Norton
Bay districts. The entire country COW
cred by these fields is rich in gold, but
the prospectors who go up there this
spring will find that all of the good
claims have already been taken up.
Cape Nome, moreover. is no place for
poor man. Everything is eApenNiye aud
competition is fierce.. No one should al
temp, to go there unless he has though
money 10 pay his passage back 10 the
United States, because nineteen out nt
every twenty new arrivals Will make
failure. Anybody that starts with
less than complete outfit ano at least
$500 in cash is taking chanees which
no wise man should take.
II have some good claims which |
shall work this year; but nothing AZ
good as Brintesen. Lindblom or Liu,le-
berg, each of whom is worth hal: mil-
lion dollars; nor quite as good as the
fellows who are running tie saloons Of
the town, who are getting rich nj Il e

1t is Mr.. olson's opinion that last
years gold yield at Nome amounted To
about S3,000,oo which is $2.oo0.ooo less

years; and the two missionaries, Rev.
\. o. Hultberg, of Chicago. and Rev.

.. Plenty of men in eastern Pennsyl-
gania have their graves dug and walled
up all ready for occupancy. They visit
their graves once a week and take good
care of the turf and the flowers. They
have the satisfaction Of knowing that
when death does come the burial lot
WON'T he disfgured by earth thrown on
the grass from the newly dug grave.
The earth to fill these ready-made
graves is brought in wagons. Some
men want such earth brought from
particular spot near their home. Ed
erly women also have their graves
prepared in advance in accordance
with their ideas. One old lady has her
grave walled up with stones taken
from an ancient bake-oven in which
her grandmother baked the best GUS
tards she ever ate in her life. She says
she knows it is only a notion, but she
wants it that way. An old sexton OF
Lehigh county has charged the young
minister of the church with one sacred
duty, as he calls it. The preacher must
see to it personally that he is buried
without a coffin. He wants his body
wrapped in sheet and lowered into
grave eight feet deep and then covered
with yellow sand from a nearby hill
where he played when boy. The floor
of the grave is to be Of the same sand
a foot thick. He says the brave SOL
der boys were buried in their blankets
and a sheet is good enough for him.
Many girls and young men choose
their. graves, but if they marry, then
the conditions change and their flu
neral arrangements are reconsidered.

world for lauy =bag pInchers. Miss
Gordon is still young in years andsis
one of the most physically perfect
specimens of women -in the country.
She was not always thus. but early sin
life began to build up the body by
taking daily exercise. A lover of out
door sports, she took aptly to it and
at once began to show improvement.
One of her chief methods was the
use of the punching bag, and she soon
mastered the art completely and won
renoMn. for. her cleverness. She. was
. the first woman to master the, art of
bag punching, shd has invented the
!. majority bf the blows she uses, and
which have beenE adopted by men and
women alike. Miss Gordon has been
seen in nearly every city in this
country, and has recently returned
from "trip through England, Germany
and France. In all her travels. both
in this country and abroad, FISHES has
at times met in open, competition,
members of both sexes and has never
once failed to come off with flying col
ors. She has met many who claimed
to be champions of, the art, and has
signally defeated them in every in
stance, and now stands ready to de-
fend her title against any lady bag
puncher in the world. A great deal
of amusement can be gotten out of
bag punching and many Of the taps
used are real pretty to look at, as we'll
as being wonderfully clever. Single
and double taps, elbow and back arm
movements are executed with wonder
full skill and judgment. The head is
brought into play and even the Shout
ders are used. Continual shifting of
the feet and legs with great quickness
is another marked feature of the art
and one which must be perfected as
we'll as the use of the hands. Miss
Gordon Endorses bag punching as an
excellent exercise for building up the
system and one which can be adopted
as one of the chief exercises for Wo-
men.
