The difficult work of taking down the great spider Ike system of tramwavs that span the bleak and stormswept Promon- tories and canyons of the rugged and for bidding Chileoot trail, Is proceeding under difficulties. but a force of fearless and hardy men have succeeded h getting ones thlrd Of the line tom from itS rocky an- ehorage and moved forward toward tide water.
 The severity Of the weather has delayed the progress much the last several days, but work has no, been suspended, and Superintendent Rogers Of the White Pass Route. which bought the tramways and Is taking them out. expects tO have the las; veS,lse of the onee pioneer mechanical highway over the hoarv mountain barrier, and the once annoying competitor of the White Pass laid low in an lgnomlniouS heap Of scrap, at the deserted village Of Ovea, by the middle of next month.
 Ten men have been employed In un- loosenlng the line and taking out the cables, and other workmen have been en> glged bv eontrlc, to carry the materials ,o tidewater.

Al first the wOrkmen just unlooSened the lines without holding them, and the great black cables immediately be- gan to wind into coils like giant snakes getting into attitude of battle before an enemy. This eontortion threw kinks ln the jointlsSS steel SsrpentS, and gave the woTkmen much trouble.
 Just what will beeomeof the remains Of the tram material Is not known. bu, some of lt will likely be used bv the rallrOat company ln various odd jobs. Supt. Rog- CTS says some of it may ee sold, and that Inquiries have been made by prospective buyers. but he does not know where they Intend Co use the stock.
 ln order 10 facilitate the carving oi the material from the end of tramwav proper to Dve1. a new road has been built up the Dyea canyon. at a cost of s7So. Several bridges had to be built. The people of Dyea stood part of the cost of building, hoping that the road would induce travel over the trail. However, the railroad com panv Is no, ire,ting over any great eompe- titon being likely to arise there.

The colonial ladies' were great gar.

their fruits and flowers must have been
moments of much pleasure in their
busy lives, says Longinan's Magazine
The most famous of these ladies was
the daughter of George Lucas, "a planter
OF Carolina. and at the same time
governor of Antigua. ut which place he
appears to have resided. leaving Miss
Eliza at home. From Antigua he sent
her all sorts OF tropical seeds OF fruits
and flowers. to try II any would take

observed certain hopeful signs with re-

repeated accidents 10 the young plants,
at length obtained good crop. Gov.
Lucns was so delighted at this I'M
looked for success that he sent over an
E:nglishman to teach Eliza the whole
process OF indigo working. The Eng

been rather sly and tricky sort

get the better Of America? The youth

Iishman's lodges. Chis namo was Crom-

complex and annoying methods Of ex-
tracing indigo" A bounty OF Cd
pound encouraged the planting, and
through its profits more children were
sent over from Carolina to be educated
at home than from all the colonies put
together Indigo was looked upon at
last as sort Of current coin. and IT is

NAVY PURCHASES
THE HOLLAND BOAT

A Contract Made With the Submarine
Torpedo Boat COmpany-The Govern
ment to Have the Right to Buy, Also,
Any of the Patents Experts to Train
Naval Crew.
The Navy Department. has aligned con-
tract with the Holland Submarine Torpedo
Boat Company for the addition of some OF
their boats to the navy. By the terms of
the contract, the Government pays $3.50, 600
for the Holland. 1t also agrees to pay
Sl75, 600 each for boats of the Holland type
it may purchase hereafter, provided that
the boats shall be similar in dimensions to
the new Holland, which will be larger
than the old one. The company under
takes to protect the Government against
any claims for infringement OF patents, and
also to sell to the Government, OF price
to be fixed by Board of Appraisers, any
of the patents used in the construction Of
the boat which it may be desirable for the
Government to possess. further obliga-
ton upon the company is to furnish ex-
perts for reasonable time to train a naval
crew in the management Of the Holland.
The company also bonds itself in the sum
of 800, 900 to complete the Plunser. Now
that the Holland has become naval vessel
under the terms Of the contract the Gov
ernment must proceed within a reasonable
time TO provide a commander and crew for
her. Notwithstanding the novelty of the
craft and the element of danger supposed
to be involved, there is no lack OF appli-
cants for she first command from junior
naval officers. The disposition is to refrain
from ordering any one to the post, but to
give it TO a volunteer.
