Veins Uncovered.

TACOMA, Wash, November 90
Coal outcroppings have been traced II
miles along Chingnik Bay, S25 miles

miles distant is sheltered harbor
where steamers or sailing vessels can
load in safety. The deposits are so
large a to make certain a permanent
supply for Alaskan towns.

A number of prominent English
men have lately volunteered for
service in the war against the Beers.
Among these are the Duke of
Marlborough, who married William
X. anderbilt's daughter; the Earl
of Dudley, who is the possessor of
great iron anil coal mines; the Earl
of Warwick, owner of Warwick
castle; and the Earl of Lonsdale,
who possesses nearly $4,000 acres of
the most valuable land in Great Brit
ain. The Duke of Marlborough
will furnish $50 men and horses,
while the others named will also
contribute literally in one way or
another from their extensive posses
slOns. 1t is very evident that the
English no longer regard the con-
quering of the Beers as the easy
task which they at first supposed it
would be.

Right of Way.

The mail agents of the United States
have the right of way at all times. The
rule is applicable to rural and star
route mail delivery. 1t is said that
some residents of the country are not
inclined to move out of the way when
the mail buggy comes along. This is
not the proper thing, because one of
these fine days deputy marshal may
be hidden in the buggy of some rural
delivery or star route man and there
will be trip taken to, perhaps, Fort
Wayne, where there is United States
commissioner who will give orders for
another trip, which will be to Indian
apolis to see Judge Baker.-Lsporte

problem with so many children, she
sent nine of them out to the cemetery
and taking one with her went in search
of house. Finding one which suited
her very well she approached the land
lord to arrange about Its rental. He
asked her how many children she had
and she said this one and nine in the
cemetery. She got the house for five
wears.

Women of New York state

Women of New York state will
soon have to devise some plan of
keeping hats on straight without the
use of daggers and bowie knives.
Anyway, Assemblyman Phillips
has introduced bill to include wo-
mems hat pins of greater length
than three inches in the class of
dangerous weapons. Assemblyman
Phillips should try the experiment
of coming IN contact with the bust
ness end of three-inch hat pin, and
he would certainly offer an amend
ment to his own meqsm e, making
the maximum half an inch or so.

Culver Military Academy.

The cadets of Culver Military acad
envy arranged an attractive program
for the entertainment of Washington
day visitors. The program opened
with a presentation of modern magic
by the Saturday Night club and an ex
hibition of bar gymnastics and fencing
Music was furnished by the cadet band,
a special feature being the rendering of
the "Culyer March," by Capt. NJ. E.
Wilson, musical director. The PER
Torrance by the club was unique and
entirely new for amateurs. In the first
act Cadet Morehouse, as "Kidit Nc
rOuZP, a Wizard of the ORIENT" and
Cadet Blow, as a "ChiId of the Desert"
entertained the audience with many
of the principal sleight of hand tricks
of the great conjurors, performed with
remarkable dexterity and eliciting
much applause, notable among them
| being favorite illusion of the late
Hermann, Gall Nations in a Bottle"
Cadet Richman, as the great Hungary
magician, Eaten Deyour Spitemup,"
provoked much laughter and applause.
In the second act Cadet Blow ap-
peared as "the human X-rsy,' able to
penetrate any substance, and after be-
ing tied and sealed in sack and then
locked and tied in trunk, he justified
the name by appearing in ten seconds
by the watch, with locks, knots and
seals intact, and returning to the trunk
in an equally short time. An examin-
alton of the trunk by committee from
the audience failed TO reveal the secret
| of the trick. The curtain rising on the
third act disclosed the frowning inter
ior of a prison, two cages standing in
the background and sentinel pacing to
and fro and q negro convict Cadet
Beck trying the bars of one of the
cages. The convict escapes and is shot
by the sentinel Cadet McGervy). "Me-
phisto" appears and returns him
to his cell, and although the au
dience can zee unde. and on all
sides of the cage the negro Immediate
| ly disappears and an enraged policeman
| Cadet Blow is seen in his place. The
negro then appears running through
the audience, is caught and placed in
| the other cage. He Immediately disap-
pears and Is seen in the original one.
This appeared on the program as "The
Phantom Niger, or the Escape from
Sing Sing" Cadet Stifel distinguished
himself in the trying position of stage
manager.
Capt. w God, the gymnastic instructor,
with his picked team, composed of Ca
diets Proctor, Baumsn, Garfield and
Morris, gave very artistic exhibition
of bar work, performing many of the
most difficult fests. At the close the
cadets executed the really marvellous
act of running cat fashion to the top of
an eighteen-foot vertical pole. Capt.
| Wood is an expert gymnast and gave q
special exhibition of horizontal bar
work. The Cadet Baxter gave an ex-
pert exhibition of fencing under the
French system. There was the usual
excellent exhibition of rough riding
and cavalry drill in the riding hall un-
der charge of Capt. Dutton, late of the
Third United States cavalry. The pro-
gram closed tonight with ball in the
gymnasium. The dance cards for this
event were little cock hats strung with
buff and blue cards, the cOlors of the
old continental uniforms.

that each county shall have coun-
Gil of citizens who shall make all APP
preparations for expenditures. The
law provided that the first members
of the county council should be APP
pointed by the judge of each circuit
court and that half of the members
should be democrats and the other
half republicans. The law further
more provides that at the coming
state election next November, the
new county councils shall be elected
by popular vote. The Wayne coun-
ty primary election of the republl-
cans occurred Saturday. Not a sim
gle citizen in the county announced
himself for the county councils.
There will therefore be no nomi
nees. The law provides for no al
ternatives and the judges connot
name the board members. 1t is
pulling the leaders of both parties
how a non-partisan council can be
selected. 1t seems to be the opinion
that in the democratic counties the
councils will be democratic and that
republican councils will prevail in
republican counties. This result
will be directly opposite to the spirit
of the law"
