"Isn't it strange said a worried looking woman, that callers always select just the piece of furniture to sit on that you don't want them to? The couch in our sitting room has a mum, Der of the springs broken, and one of the ehairs is in a rather shaky condi- ton. The other evening two young men called on my daughter. We had arranged it So the members of the family would be sitting on the couch and in the broken chair. The first young mar made a bee-line for the couch and lfe other slid into the brok en chair, when my daughter got up to greet him. To add to our embarrass- ment the chair promptly collapsed.

l have moi done anything since ar
irving here, and do not see any chance
of doing anything in the immediate fu-
ture, but We will possibly stay here at
least until we have eaten our grub up,
as it is a good place to have an outing,
even if it is a rather costly one.
There are a number Of cases of small
pox in town. Elizabeth and l were vac
cinated while we were on the boat, but
it did not take on either Of us. There
have been several murders since our
arrival here, but the town is now in
charge OF the military authorities and
is pretty free from shooting scrapes.
l do not know when this letter will
reach you, as the large steamers have
all left here, and all that now remain
are sailing vessels. l wroe You a post

town on one of the Aleutian islands, to
which port we were compelled to re-
turn for fresh water and provisions,
after humping around in tie ice for
nearly a week. We were within $50
miles of Nome when we started back to
Dutch Harbor, a distance Of 700 miles.
There was apparently nothing but ice
ahead of us when We turned back, but
when we arrived at Nome there were
% steamers and sailing vessels in ahead
of us who had picked their way through
the ice.

NO LOVE FOR NOME
MR.. AND MRS. D. w. BAIRD NOT
FAvoRABLY IMPRESSED
WITH ALASKA.
A Disagreeable Trip Of T~wenty-Four
Days on a Freight Vessel Which
Had Been Represented as a First
Glass Passenger Boat-Stranded
People Rudelyi Awakened from
Dreams of Wealth.

Mrs. George A. Campbell has receiv-
ed the following letter from her broth
er, D. W. Baird, who, with his wife,
reached Cape Nome, Alaska, toward
the latter part Of June:
Nome, Alaska, July 8, 1900.
We arrived here safely two weeks
ago, after a voyage lasting "a days, and
after looking things over have to come
to the conclusion that we are up
against a pretty tough proposition.
Everything favorable concerning this
camp has been greatly exaggerated, and
the town is full of stranded people who
came buoyed up with the hope OF
shortly returning to the States with
at least s1,00O,000.
The widely advertised richness of
the beach is all a myth, what little gold
it contained having been removed long
before the arrival OF the deluded ten
derfeet who came up this season. The
beach is strewn with valuable machin-
cry, left where it was unloaded from
the steamers, and will probably never
be used at all, and the men who
brought 1t up are now trying to dispose
Of 1t, in a great many instances for less
than the amount they had to pay for
freight alone. We are fortunate In one
respective brought nothing except
grub enough to last about two months.
and I have been trying to persuade
Elizabeth that when that is gone we
had better get out Of Nome and look
for some other camp where conditions
are more favorable for a person with a
limited amount Of capital. That there
is plenty Of gold in Alaska there lie NO
doubt. but In this section everything
has been staked of within a radius OF
100 miles and there is, therefore. nc
chance to locate a mine. Az regards
commercial pursuits, everything IL
overcrowded, and 1t is impossible "a

PRINCE OF WALES CONSENTS.
Marriage of Lady Randolph Churchill
and Lieutenant Cornwallis-West.

New Yirk, July PA dispatch to
the World from London says: The
Prince of Wales has given his formal
Endorsement and c%ountenance to the
marriage Of Lady Randolph Churchill
and Lieutenant Cornwallis-West,
which it is said, he originally opposed.
The Duchess of Devonshire was the
Intermediary for the lovelorn couple.
The duchess arranged a week end"
party, to which the prince accepted IN
invitation. Upon her intercession his
royal highness gave his assent to the
inclusion among the guests of both
the young lieutenant Of the Scots
guards an Lady Randolph Churchill.
This action really gives the royal con-
sent to the marriage, which has been
set down for the first week in August.

will not rent it to anybody, as the on
ly right they have to it is that of a
squatter, and if they rented their prop
erty and moved out they would lose all
right. The only way to get a location,
therefore, is to buy one outright from
the squatter and have him out,
and the prices which they are obtain

Elizabeth is blessed with good health
and enjoys the c%amping-out life. She
says it is the %jolliest spree she ever
had. She seems to have a good time
busying herself about the tent, but
am of the opinion that after the novel
ty wears off she will want to try some
other camp.
We had a very disagreeable trip up.
We were led to believe that we were to
travel on a first-class passenger boat,
but when we we're all bundled aboard at
Seattle-no one was allowed to inspect
the ship while she was lying at the
dock preparatory to sailing-we dis
covered that we were consigned to
hunks in what was and always had been
a freight boat. All of the passengers
had first-class tickets, and all, with the
exception of about 40, who had state
rooms up on deck, were forced to travel
for "a days in the steerage. Men and
| women were jumbled together in the
| same stateroom-there were II hunks
in each room-and to add to my dis
found it already occupied by a large
Swede woman. Her ticket called for
that room and so did mine, and when I
found that I had no berth for so long
a trip I waxed exceedingly wroth. Az
ter storming around all over the ship, I
| finally located a bunk with no one in
it, so took possession and held it dur
ing the entire trip. There were a doz-
en- instances where the same bunk had
been sold twice and sometimes three
times, and several OF the passengers
| slept on the floor, while others made
| shift on benches and tables. Fortu-
~nate,v 7 had secured one of the deck
rooms for Elizabeth by paying an ad-
dition,l s25 and she had a nice large
room, with some other woman as an

give 1t a trial, for it is certain to prove

Why is it that a female principal in

for which a male principal gets $1,650?
In Wyoming 1t has for many years
been the law that all men and women
in the employ of the state shall receive
equal pay for equal work. In { an the
news that full suffrage had been
granted to women was followed by
the announcement that the legislature

The Boxers are also known as the

and that they are immuned from death

Roman Catholic missions, but soon be-
gan to wage war on the Protestant
