Papyrisette. New Roofing Material.

A new roofing and flooring material
has been invented by Mr.. Gehre. who
was the inventor also of papyrolith,
over which the newer material is said
to present advantages. Papyrisette
can be adapted for various purposes;
but it is especially intended to serve
as a solid. impermeable and jointless
roof or floor. which. when laid down,
will present smooth surface, as if
made in one continuous layer. 1t is
claimed to be absolutely fireproof and
a non-conductor of cold or sound. and,
although as hard as stone. it has
soft, linoleum-like feeling to the foot
and is noiseless. Moreover. it can be
cut, sawn and bored, can be given any
desirable tint. and can be made to
look like mosaic or marble.

GETTING CATTLE TO YUKON.
How the Northern Military Posts Are
Supplied with Beef.

Supplied with Beef.
E. B. Hanley, who has government
contract for furnishing live bees to
the various military posts of the Yu-
kon, is spending few days at the
Imperial. He is preparing to take up
drove of cattle with him in the
spring of 1901, and expects to go in
by Skagway. freighting the stock
from that point to White Horse Ra-
pids by rail, 100 miles. and thence
down the Yukon by boat and barge to
the military posts. such as Circle
City and Fort Yukon. says the Port
land Oregonian.
Mr.. Hanley says the forwarding of
cattle to Alaska is attended with many
difficulties, and there is danger of
loss from upsetting of barges or
from the animals straying into the
deep woods along the Yukon. and so
beef is worth a good figure by the
time it is safely landed at it's destina-
ton. The stock has to be landed
along the route frequently for the pur-
pose of feeding, as the cattle have to
live off the country they pass through.
The woods are mostly of the dense Or
der along the Yukon in American ter
ritory, and once steer gets out of
sight he becomes wild and scampers
off where there is no possibility of
following him. Horses cannot be
used in that region. and the men on
guard at night have to depend on
their own fleetness of foot in heading
off a "critter" which attempts to break
away. The cattle, however, are usual
ly very gentle by the time they reach
the camping places along the river. as
they have had a sea voyage. a freight
car ride and a trip on the river boats.
They are in good beef condition when
they leave the states. and much care
is bestowed on them while en- route in
order that they may hold their own
until they are received by the govern
ment's agents.
Mr.. Hanley does not think any part
of Alaska will ever become a stock
raising country. although much has
been said in its favor by persons who
are not conversant with the stock
raising business. at is true that con-
siderable grass grows in various por-
tions of the territory" he said. "but
the growing season is too short. and
domestic animals have to be fed and
housed at least nine months in every
year, even in the most favored por-
tions." He has been along the coast
of the Alaskan peninsula, and found
no place where cattle can be main
tained at profit. and he considers
that the men who call that a stock
country know very little about the
business.
He has never attempted to take
sheep into Alaska. because these ami
mails could not be protected from the
dogs which are numerous in that re-
gion. and so he thinks domestic NUT
ton will always be at a premium
there. "The Alaskan dogs" he said,
ARE trained to hunt the mountain
sheep. and so cannot discriminate in
favor of the domestic article when a
band Of these is brought into the
country. The wild sheep are still
numerous all over. and their flesh is
considered fully equal to mutton. They
run in droves above the timber line,
and there is very little danger of ex-
terminating them for many years to
come"

day, May |

To-day's Philadelphia Ledger says:
The price OF coal will be increased 10
cents per ton to the city and line trade
next Wednesday. May !. This was
semi-otiicially announced yesterday.
and as it was part of the program
outlined two months ago for a gradual
increase in prices until next Septem-
her. occasi0ned no surprise. While
there is an agreement not to cut prices.
and large proportion Of the coal
mined gees under the control of the
railroad companies, there is some doubt
whether the increase can be main
tained
Mining Is being restricted, so as to
afford "a chance to work OF the i'm
mense accumulation OF coal that was
placed in stock in anticipation OF the
miners strike on April l. In the
meantime bituminous coal Is being
rushed Eastward, and the soft coal
operators are using their best en-
deavOrs to hold the trade which they
served last Fall during the anthracite
miners strike. This is a new element
of competition, and a powerful one.
A number of the big anthracite
operators have, up to this time, re-
fused to sign the proposition of the
carrying companies to accept 65 per
cent. Of the price Of coal at tidewater,
and bind the product of their mines for
all time. The companies that have
signed the agreement are in many in
stances dissatisfied, and this has been
brought to the attention of the presi-
dents Of the coal carrying roads. The
fact OF George f. Baer having become
Il railroad president has delayed the
work Of perfecting the coal combina-
'tion. 1t was said yesterday that Mr..
Baer's visit to New York was also in
relation to the future Of the coal trade.
AS part of the scheme to restrict
production, all mines are to be aban-
doned where the cost OF mining is so
great as not to allow a fair profit.
