Curious Specimens of Ancient Smokers
Articles from Central America.
The increasing commerce with Hon
duras and Nicaragua is bringing to
this country many of the odd imple-
ments and curios of those lands. The
Spanish population has large admix-
ture of Aztec or other aboriginal blood
and preserves many of the implements
as well as customs which prevailed in
the time of the Montezumas. One OF
the queerest suryivals in this regard
is the long pipe. which is still employ

but that vacant lots should be put to
the best possible use while they remain
unoccupied. They should be made to
yield their highest value to the people.
In crowded cities it Is suggested that
they be used as Fairgrounds for the
neighboring children. Most city chill
dren are accustomed to seeing either
vacant lots overrun with weeds and
not available as Fairgrounds on that
account, If no other, or carefully kept
parks, where the turf and flowers are
labeled Hands off," What they should
have is chance to play untrammeled
by rules which forbid them to walk on
the grass.
The work of destroying the weeds
and improving vacant lots can, in the
opinion of the department, be best done
by municipal direction under the i'm
mediate supervision of the park or
street departments. If it is done gem
orally 1t will not only improve the pub
lie health and furnish Fairgrounds for
thousands of city children but will
avert millions of dollars of damage to
the farmers of the surrounding coun-
try.

Have fragrant blossoms. Many others are fragrant only when crushed.
 There is one which is fragrant in bloom and fragrant also when its ripened fruit is crushed and made into a drink. eWe know it as coffee.
 To enjoy the most delicious fra granoe of coffee in it's highest state of perfection you should buy what you are sure is coffee, pure and simple, without any adulteration.
 Chase & Sanborn's Coffee is a pure coffee. What is more, it is the best coffee that can be raised by experienced planters Furthermore every bean is selected and the same care is maintained in roasting and packing, until it reaches 6." con sumers' hands.
 Because it is pure it is healthful and the price at which it sells IS SO little in advance of cheaper grades that one stops and wonders why any one should not always have Chase & Sanbom's Seal Brand Coffee, or any one of their high grade brands which come in parch- ment lined colored bags.

There was nothing new on the small pox question in SkagwSy yesterday When the Victorian docked Dr. Moore was there and saw that everything was all right before the passengers were allowed to go ashore.
 Last evening at S:3o o'clock canoe full of Indians was seen to go into the point between here and Dyea and it is thought a landing was made. Unless the beach is more thoroughly patrolled than it now is Indians can come to this city by landing at some remote place like the point and working their way in slowly SO as to avoid attracting atten- ton. The beach needs guarding fully as much if not more than the wharves.
 Rather alarming accounts of the sit- uation at Hoonah, the Indian village between here and Sitka, reached the city yesterday. From them it would seem that terrible condition of affairs exists there and that unless medical aid is furnished the natives there at once many of them will surely die
 The disease was introduced among the Hoonahs about two months ago when a great potlatch, costing about S25.ooo was given in honor of the Sit kaS. Many of the latter attended and the disease was carried by some of them. Recently two of the Hoonahs went to Juneau for medical assistance for their sick ones. but were turned back before they got up town. They reported that a number of the Indians had already died.
 The situation is made the more des- peratc because there is neither drug store nor doctor at the place. Many of the wealthiest Indians in Alaska reside there and they are able and willing to pay for doctoring ii they can be pro vidcd with it
 Ii the request which Dr,Moorc made to the quarantine officers at Port Townsend for two revenue cutters, is granted as it most likely will be. one of them will be stationed at Hoonah. The surgeon could then attend the sick and the ships apothecary shop might
