THE sKAGWAY ROUTE.

The constant travel to Nome via Skag- way and the Yukon has established be- vond cayil the claims presented for this route to the northernmost gold fields. A significant fact in connection, also, is that those who have accepted this route are nearly all oId-time Alaskans, who are fa- miliar with northern conditions. The fact that such is the case portends a greater percentage of the Nome travel for this route in the future. The scenic beauty of the inside passage and the opportunity to visit all the principal Alaskan and Yukon points is an advantage that will bring more and more of the Boring sea miners through Skagwav, especially on the trip north, where the benefit of the Yukon cur rent Is secured to the passenger. The dit- ference in time is not great between the two routes. With quick connections, the trip to Nome can be made in less time via Skagwav than by the ocean route.
 Another thing that will contribute to travel this way is that so many Alaskan miners who have interests at Dawson and in the Klondike and on the American Yu- kon and its tributaries are also interested at Nome. These can care for their several interests by patronizing this route at a great saving of time and expense.

St. Helena.

St. Helena is great place for caves and hills. Both abound. particularly the latter. GeolOgically speaking, the island is largely, if not wholly, vol canic, and lot of extinct craters are apparent. Some of the pinnacles have queer names, such as Lots Wife, the Man and the Horse, the Asses Ears, Holdfast Tom, Old Joan Point, Stone Top, etc.
 The only inhabited place is James town, which has population of about 2,5O0. It lies in deep valley sur rounded by very high hills. It is not a particularly healthy place. Ladder hill is where the government house is situated. It is so called because of the almost precipltous ladderlike wooden stairs, by which its acclivIty of 600 feet has to be scaled.
 Nearly four miles inland from James, town Is an isolated farmhouse, on an elevated plateau about 2,000 feet above the sea. This Is LOngwood, where Ma poleon lived from 1915 until he died there, in 1921. The house is a long, low, whitewashed, fairly trim building, with extensive outhouses, some rather fine old trees and good bit of decent farm land.

Hack Cnata.

An English clergyman, rather pom pous of manner, according to Spare Moments, was fond of chatting with a witty chimney sweep.
 Once, when the minister returned from his summer holidays, he happen ed to meet his yo9thful acquaintance, who seemed to have been at work.
 Where have you been?" asked the clergyman.
 Sweeping the chimneys at the vic arage," was the boys answer.
 How many chimneys are there, and how much do you get for eachT' was the next question.
 The sweep said there were 20 chim- neys and that he was paid shilling apiece.
 The clergyman, after thinking mo ment, looked at the sweep in apparent astOnishment. You have earned a great deal of money in little time," he remarked solemnly, wondering, probably, what the sooty fellow would reply.
 "Yes," said the sweep, throwing his bag over his shoulder as he started away. we who wear black coats get our money very easlyW

Black Rain.

The first case of black rain which comes under review occurred at Ora hamstown and the surrounding dis trfct in August, 1888, and it extended over an area of no less than 36D square miles, says Chambers Journal Since then there have happened several showers of similar description, but less pronounced in their sable charac- ter. Other showers of black rain have been recorded in Ireland, one of which was felt over an area of 400 square niles.
 No one seems to have microscopically examined the water which fell at Ora hamstown, but 1t was noted that the liquid gradually cleared when placed in a suitable vessel, and a black pre- cipitate fell from it. In the latter cases referred to the deposit has been care fully examined and was found to con sist of microscopic organisms, which averaged about the twelve thousand five hundredth part of an inch in length, and which were identified with the same fungoid organisms that are responsible for blight in the plants which they infest and subsequently, for smut, mildew and rust in wheat and barley.
 The writer sums up his remarks thus: Humidity is known to contrib ute largely to the coplous production of fungi, and during protracted drought the regions affected thereby will re- main comparatively bare of fungi, but during the seasons of frequent rain falls the production of a fungoid vege- tation is largely increased"

All Fools, Day

The custom of playing pranks on April fools day probably had It's origin in France, the first nation to begin the new year Jan. 1 instead of March 25 Before the change April l was the day when the merrymaking of the New Years celebration eliminated In the paying of gifts and visits in return for those already bestowed. When the re formed calendar in 1864 made the Isl of January the beginning of the new year, April 1 was the time for pre-. tended gifts and visits of mock cere. mony to make fools of those who had forgotten the change in dates.
 The Romans had a holiday similar in character to this, although not coming at the same time of year, the satur, nalia, and in Hindustan the feast of the Hui, on March 31, has for It's chief diversion the sending of people on fruitless errands.
 Tn Scotland they have a trick for April fools day which never grows stale. If a fellow can be found simple enough to undertake 1t, he Is given q note to carry to certain person. He reads it and says 1t Is not for him, but that he is to go t0-naming another man-and from there he Is sent to an other and so on until the bearer grows tired or sees a light. The note con tains the lines:
 This is the first of Aprile;
 Hunt the gowk another mile.

Bridge Builders' Fright.

Bridge building is perilous busi- ness, and no insurance company will take any risk on the lives of super ble sensation known to superstructure workers. It Is something like stage fright.
 "I know once" said one of them, "when I wasn't up more than 140 feet, a sudden feeling came over me that l and there was d swift tide swirling around the edges of the piers It seem- ed to me I should surely be killed. 1 clasped both arms around the beam on which I was working and lay there, just clinglng to 1t, for 20 minutes. Luck fly for me. the foreman, who was near me. saw what was the matter and had sense enough not to speak to me. If he had. know l should certainly have fallen off. He kept on working, and clung helplessly to the beam. Finally, in gruff voice. he growled at me: Say, git out O there! want to put rivet there And |, obedlent to an instinct of duty, found myself moving along. The feeling passed away as did move and didn't come back"
 When was in Peru building bridges" said an engineer. q did not lose my head at work, but more than once woke up during the night hang Ing to the sides of the bed In despera- ton of fear to keep from falling in a nightmare" ."-Boston Herald.

Mail Shirt of a Dervish Warrior.

The shirt is made of rings, every ring from piece of steel wire 1A inches long and about one-sixteenth of an inch thick. The ends of the piece of wire are fattened out, holes are punch. ed through them, one end is turned on to the other, and they are fastened to- gether by a small rivet. Every ring connects four others. The wire differs somewhat in thickness, not by design seemingly so as to make one part of the shirt stronger than another, but from material of uniform thickness running short. In parts where the rings are free to jingle together they are worn very thin. Round the neck is a band of three thicknesses of red leather, stiff like the stock worn for merly in our army. It is 2A inches high and on the outside is decorated with ornamental lines like tOolings made by a bookbinder. - Notes and Queries.

EFF SuperstltiOns.

There are many superstitiOns about the egg. In Scotland and Ireland chil. dren are taught by their nurses to crush the shell after eating an egg or to push the spoon through the bottom in the form of cross, showing q lin gering relic of the once general super stitious belief that witches lived in eggshells and made boats of them casting spells upon the household.
 In ItaFy it was believed that an egg laid by a white hen in new nest on Easter day would cure pains in the head or stomach; that broken in a vineyard it would prevent its suffering from hail or similarly would save a field from frost, and its possession gave one the power to see witches. Il was also believed that an egg laid on Good Friday, thrown on the fire, would extinguish 1t, while the devil would be killed if shot with an egg laid on Christmas.-SelfC Culture Magazine.

SUNDAY SOCIAL.
sKAawAY's FIRST CAMPAIGN.


 At ten o'clock today Judge Brown will hear objection to the petition that was filed with the clerk of the district court Satur- day, praying for an election to decide upon the incorporation of Skagwav. There seems no good reason to suspect that there will be any objection, and certainly none of sufficient importance to defeat the object of the petitioners.
 If Judge Brown approves the petition, he will make an order calling an election whereat the citizens of the United States, who have resided in Alaska one year and Skagway six months and having substan- tisl property interests therein, will vote, first, for or against incorporation; second, for seven eouncilmen and third, for three school directors. Then will commence the first real political campaign thls city has ever had. Whether or not party politics will enter into the campaign, it Is yet too early to say. Some are in favor of a par tisan. contest, while many business men are emphatieally opposed to such course.
 Whether party politics Is made one of the qualifications for position on the council or not, the citizens cannot be too careful In the selection. The future of Skagway depends much upon the city get ting started off right at this time. The first city council will lay the foundation for the civil structure of the city, and it is all important that the work be done wise ly. Careful, level headed, able and honest men--men whose first aim will be to serve the eommunity--should be selected.

Coe, who told him Sir E. Lytton had taken it. "I told him it was yours," he said, "and Sir Edward said that if he found that 1t was when he got home he would send 1t back in the morning"
