BACK FROM NOME.

Charles Eaton. at one time connected
with the MissOula fire department., has
returned home after a summer spent on
the golden sands of Nome. Mr.. Eaton Is
well pleased with his summers expert
ence, though the pleasure was disturbed
by the e storms that wrecked the
homes, business &and~fortunes Of hun
dreds. Leaving .MissOuia last May to-
gether with Joe Fitzgerald, who recent1
ly returned home, and William Lynch
and Finn Haverfield.. who are yet in
Nome, he arrived at Nome Jun IL, after
an exciting trip in which fire, mutiny ana
small pox mingled. After. being detained
in quarantine ten days off the mouth Of
the Yukon they were permitted to lana
and securing a-location,on the beach pro-
ceeded ito wash out the. golden treasure.
During the time they worked they PAID
expenses, three, days effort bringing
them 1860. The next three, however,
brought but $3.50. barely, sufficient to buy
their coal, Inc rich pocket being worked
out With their steam pumping machine.
Mr.. Eaton believes there is money to
be made at Nome, the tundra panning
sutflcient colors in places to warrant hy-
draluic working. His theory of the gold
en- sands of the beach is that they are
the deposits from the melting ice that
forming in the creeks in winter, freezing
the creeks solid, are carried down in the
spring and blown upon the beach to
thaW. To substantiate his theory me
cites the finding Of goou-sized nuggets by
his party, some Of $3.50 valu Ones
health at Nom can be protected If whis-
KY is left alone and proper precautions
taken.
One of the objects of his trip was to
introduce a steam ground thawer that
he invented and patented, which, though
simple, is exceedingly effective, and if he
can get it adopted he will not need to
brave the elements and the far north to
secure riches. g =
On his return trip he left Nome Sep
TENDER II on the steamer Tacoma and in
nine days vas in Seattle.

THE BIG FLAT sCHOoLHOUsE.

James Martin, of the Big Flat school
district was in town yesterday to see
County Attorney Denny and Miss Hard,
county superintendent of schools, con-
corning some Of the voting that had &C.
Cured the day before by those interested
IN the location of a schoolhouse to be
built in that district. For several years
past the population has steadily increas-
ed and with it the demand for better IA
c1llties. New districts have been formed
n lines more definitely established that
people might know where they belonged.
Mr.. Martin contends that some seem yery
SLOW about learning for although they
live outside of the Big Flat district, thew
insisted upon voting and to these out
siders is due the tie over the location of
the new house. each site receiving four
teen votes. Had the vote beer limited to
the actual residents of the district the
central people would have won out by
w or three votes, but the so~uth-enders
rung IN enough outsiders to tie the vote
n the result will nave to be determined
by a contest or another election. The
contention of the outsiders is that thew
a right to do so because they sent
children to the school. but County Attor-
ney Denny has ruled that to vote in a
district a man must actually reside with
IN Its limits. There was no division over
the building of the house, every one yot-
ing yes. W.

TOO WE'LL READ.

He said he did not known how to play
poker scientifically, but his friends per-
suaded him into the game. He played
with varying success until a fat Jack pot
showed up.
AS the novice awkwardly fingered his
cards he asked:
Are four cards with just one spot on
each one of 'em worth a%nything?"
AT this j%uncture it would be the usual
thing to remark that all of the other
plaers threw down their hands and let
the novice take the pot without further
trouble. But candor compels the state
ment that these particular poker players
read the comic papers. With great glee
they raised the novice out of his boots
and compelled him to lay down his hand.
The novice held a pair of treys, a seven
spot, a jack, and the ''cutter."-Omaha

Past md Present Acting.

With regard to the art of acting. who
shall say whether it is better or worse
today than it was 60 or 100 years ago?
'The old playgoer" always tells us that
it was better. But is not ''old playgo-
err simply the young playgoer grown
old. still imbued with his first impress
sions. his favorite and most lasting
ones. and with a jealous desire never
to have those first impressions disturb
ed? If one talks of the actor of today,
the playgoer of past generation
speaks of Macready, Charles Kean and
Phelps.
People living in the times of those
three great actors would surely bark
back to the Kembles and Mrs. Siddons.
and when these great artists were in
their prime they no doubt underwent
diSparagement at the hands Of veter-
ans who had summed themselves in the
genial art of Garrick. But Pope, friend
and admirer of Garrick as he was.
to tell you at the same time he can
didly admits. that in Be:terton's time
the older sort of people talked of Hart
being his superior, just as we do Of
Betterton being his now"
In this way we could keep going
backward untii-if We believed con-
temporary critics at all points Of stage
history-we should find that the first
actor. presumably the serpent. was the
best that ever trod the boards.-Mrs.
Beerbohm Tree in Queen.

The Future Population of Siberia.
This is a question upon which much
has been said and written. some writ
ers taking the stand that Siberia is to
have a population of 10000. 600 or So
100000 within the next 100 years,
while others hold this view is a gross
eXaGgera ton.
A writer of the latter belief. Armini-
US Vambery using The Pail Mall Mag
aZine as medium. has this to say on
the subject: With regard to the future
colonization of this outlying portion
of the empire of the car. there is no
doubt that an unmis;akable gain will
be derived. for the growth of the pop
ulation in Siberia. where an area Of
13.4OO.OOO square miles is inhabited by
only 100000 souls and where the ex-
ira ordinary wealth in minerals. woods
and arabic land still awaits exploita-
ton, will certainly proceed with great
err strides than heretofore.
without giving implicit faith to
Russian official statistical data. it may
fairly be assumed that owing to the
particular care the government has al
ways taken to further colonization. the
eminently agricultural Russian will
probably avail himself of the offered
facilities and that the population in
the hitherto empty lands will consider
ably increase. 1T may be objected that
Russia. the most thiniy populated coun-
try in Europe. will hardly find sur
plus to provide for the newly opened
territory: but it must be borue in mind
that the Russian peasant is noted for
his migratory propensities."

Unable to Pronounce 1t.

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 consistently tried for a score Of
years to get "Moike to quit it," The
&torms 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 occurrence as
formerly. Not long ago, so the story
goes. the old man went home pretty well
tanked. and his wife met him.

Abstractedly Duval looked up and
watched them at their playa boy Of
some years and girl of perhaps two
years younger. Gradually his mood
changed. and he became conscious of
the radiance of the day. the deep blue
sky and the autumn tints that glinted
and glowed IN the sunlight. The air
was as wine to his thirsty lungs. and
life grew full of possibilities again. and
his thoughts took new course Why
could he not paint a soul as well as IA
body? He would win Blanche yet. He
would not make any effort to see her
now. but would work and wait. His
life should prove his right to win her
love. He would paint a picture that
even she would praise. A hundred
subjects presented themselves to his
busy brain as he sat there watching
those two children who stopped in
their play and were crossing the road
way. Hand in hand they came, the
boy leading his younger companion.

The breeze blew her short curls about

year of work brought forth the
picture that made him famous. 1t was
a simple subject-a child with wind
tossed locks holding open her blue
apron to catch the golden shower of
leaves sent dancing down upon her by
the autumn wind.
The public raved over the beauty of
the child's eager. upturned face. the
blue of the sky and the gold of the
trees. but Blanche read the message Of.
the soul in the innocent eyes and gave
her heart into the keeping of the artist
who had painted "A Little Danae In
