POINTS ABOUT ALASKA.

Alaska has almost doubled it's pop
ulation in the past 10 years.
A curious point about this increase
is that the increase of the northern
district has almost equaled the en-
tire population of the southern dis
trict at the time of the census of
1890; and coincidentally the popula-
ton of the southern district increased
by just about the entire number OF
people who were at that same time
in the northern district.
The following table shows the man
ner in which the two districts have
so curiously come to have about the
same populations:

made anything but out enter
tainments impossible. and even the sum-
mer dances and outings were not large
" attended. as the preparation OF cos

The Bachelors Club dance at Wheel

Her skirt hung straight behind
And knew that time was passing, but

He, In his loneliness, had rubbed
The plush all off his chair;
He rose, and, with courtly bow
And one hand on his heart,
Said: "Ah Miss Montmorency, you

A CLEAN of hate shone in her eyes
And angrily she cried: a.,

And calmly he replied:

For art Is long, they say.
She sighed a happy sigh and all
Her anger passed away.

Great preparations are being made
10 France for the celebration Of the
Tooth anniversary Of Victor Hugo's
birth next February. Leading repre-
sentatives Of the literary and art cir
cles will participate and there will
also be observance In which the mass
Is Of the people will join. AS it was
at the funeral of the great French
man, so it will be in this celebration
- The learned and illiterate, the rich
and poor will together pay honor to
the poet and patriot. In making the
announcement for the government
the Temps says;-"In spite Of the re.
action against the school which Vic
tor Hugo led, in spite Of a tendency
to question his originality and his
philosophic authority, be nevertheless
remains both by virtue Of the amount
OF his products, by the brilliancy Of. his
Imagination and his unrivaled control
Of the melodious capacity of words the
most imposing literary figure in France
in the 10Th century," 1t seems 10 us
the Temps omits the one thing which
gave and always will give Victor Hugo
precedence in the hearts Of bis coun.
trymen and humanity in general. His
was the power Of a great heart. There
are those in this country who think
the fame Of Balzac is to eclipse that
of Hugo. Never. Balzac was great
artist, greater perhaps than Hugo. He
was the real founder Of the realistic
school Of literature. But his sympathies
we're seldom engaged. A scarcely res
trained sneer runs Though all his in.
imitable pictures. Hugo is forever
differentiated from mere artists. Like
Lincoln he was a lover of his kind. He
is not only the French chief of roman
ticism. He was the ablest exponent Of
humanitarian France has ever pro.
duced.
