TIE CoLoNIsr's IGNORANCE

The DAILY ALASKAN recently had oc-
caslon to correct the Victoria Colonist fol
erronsouslv stating that the temporary
boundary fine established between Alaska
and Canada In the Porcuplne district, was
not the result Of diplomacy. The Colo
mist said that the Commissioners had los
Gated the line on the summit, and had
simply discovered the summit to be less
thso ten marine leagues from tide water.
The DAILY ALASKAN pointed out that the
summit of the mountains was more than
thirty miles awav from the head of Chill
kat inlet and that the line was established
on the bank of the kiaheena by the terms
of the modus vivendi. The Colonist now
retorts as follows:
"The Skagway Alaskan saws the Colo
nist's Ignorance on the boundary question
Is appalling. It certainly Is, If what the
Alaskan claims Is correct. But the Alas
kan Is absolutely incorrect"
II the editor of the Colonist will pubs
fish the modus vivendi, its readers will
discover which is correct. If he will say
that he has not read that agreement a
marked COPY Of the DAILY ALASKAN
will be sent him."

There Is no provi sion Ia the statute

1.-THE penury OF the United States
government offers little encourage
ment TO one TO do his whole duty"
said Judge Sehlbrede In conversing OH
the matter. at would require several
days time and considerable expense to
make an examination into the case of
the corpse found recently back of
Halnes, besides the expense would be
considerable, yet the United States
only allows IS, for such service. One
would think, when it is considered
that the United States gets net profit
of more than 5000, 900 year out of
Alaska, it could afford the money to
investigate such cases as the death of
Nelson and Metcalf."
Judge Sehlbrede has held inquests
and performed many services wherein
the expense was much greater than the
fee allowed, and would do so in the
case of Nelson, were 1t in his district.

Az Good as Paint.

Now that whi,cwashing buildings
as well as fences aud trees along the
Scaboard Air Line is getting TO be a
prevalent practice, promoting alike
the health as well as wholesome beauty
Of stations and adjacent premises, it
will not be inappropriate to state the
ingredients aud the application Of
whitcwash used by the United States
government which is almost equal to
paint in looks and enduring qualities
1t is manufactured according to the
following formula.
Take half Il bushcl Of uuslakcd
lime, slakc it with boiling water, cover
during process to keep in steam, strain
the liquid through fine sieve or
strancr, and add to it peck of salt,
previously dissolved in warm water,
three pounds Of ground ricce boiled to
thin paste and stirred IN while hot,
half a pound Of Spanish whiting aud
one pound clean gluc, previously dis
solved by soaking in cold water and
then hung over slow fire in small
pot hung in Il larger one filled with
water. Add five gallons hot water in
the mixture, stir well and let stand
few days covered from dirt 1t should
DC applied hot, tor which purpose it
can be kept in kettle or portable fur
mace.
a pint Of this whitcwash mixture,
if properly applied, will cover one
square yard, and it will be almost as
scrviccablc as paint for wood, brick or
stonc, and is much cheaper than the
cheapest paint.
ColoriDg matter may be added as
desired. For c.cam color, add yellow
ocher; pearl or lead, add lamp or ivory
black; fawn, add proportionately four
pounds Of umber to one Of Indian red
and one pound common lampblack; !;
common stone color, add proportion
atcly four pounds raw lumber or two
pounds lampblack.
a coat of this whitewash adorns the
east end of the presidents home at
Washington, and the difference be-
tween it and best white paint is not
noticeable to the ordinary observer.
The government lighthouses are also
all covered with this material, and in
every instance it has proved salts
factory substitute for paint while cost
ing less than half as much. - Sulnn

Cancer Cured by Using X.Ray.

SAN Francisco, Cal, February 1S.-
After suffering from cancer Of the
face for years DR.. j. NJ. Sclfridgc,
founder of Fabiola Hospital at Oak
land, has been almost completely
cured by thoN.ray Last October
Dir. Selfrage began experimenting with
the Nray in connection with his son,
DIR. G. Nj. Sclfragc, and DR.. n. IL.
Chamberlain. So successful has
been the trial that numbers Of other
sufferers have taken the same remedy
and have met with like astonishing
relief.
The doctor was led to Begin expert
ments by noting the powerful irritat-
:nS effect of Mays Oh healthy skip. i.
lie conceived the idea that the X.ray
might dry up and heal the cancer tis-
sue. So he made face mask of a
thin sheet Of lead and allowed only q
small aperture over the cancer. He
was placed on an operating table and
his face covered with the mask, the
cancer wound only being exposed to
the action of the rays. The expert
ment was begun last October. Bone-
fetal results were noted at once aud
the cancer began to dry up. Now it
is entirely healed, only scar remain
ing.
Doctors at Fabiola arc trying the
euro on other cases and are getting
encouraging results. CAicago Record.

idea that he was going to enrich the
soil of Laurel Hill that he began to
figure mp the question Of expense.
The ruling passion was strong in death.
Rubblng his chin rcAcctively as he lay

Of way that harbcrs charged trcmcn-

got up and dressed, despite the pro-
tests Of lis family, and staggered
around the corner to the barber shop.
"What do you charge for shaving a
corpse?" he asked the barber. Gone

man sank into the chair without an
