IS NOT FOUND
Body of Barney Grey Still
 Lies In the Water
Several Parties Attempt to Find It By Using Grappling Irons But Without Suocess-A Few Moro Incidents of His Life

The body of Barney Grey who me, death Friday night by failing from 'yl- ycstcrs wharf and drowning. 's suil unrccovcrcd
 Yesterday at low tide. three ditc.nt parties were ont with row boats .nd grappling irons. dragging for the body but without favorable results.
 The wharf was quite a bit noticed yesterday and many of the poor vic tims friends gathered in knots nca. where Grey |, supposed Co have fallen and discussed his untimcly end.
 lt Is now known that he had money coming from the railroad and that be has a mother residing m Minnesota.
 Ole Aroson who was close iricN' of Gre. came over on last nights pas Scngcr train and returned on the freight In conycrsation with an Alas k9QogeagUeg.hs hs sad tbafa about, ihT6s ,tantly his disposition changed He was always a drinking man and given 10 bullying but he immediately began Co imbibc more freely and became quarrclsomc and always carrying club around on his shoulder This latter was noticed during the last two week, here.
 The letter he received could. ii found, perhaps throw some li"ht on his ac- tions.
 Grey has been m Alaska for several years. He came here soon after thc rush and was for a time engaged iu prospecting m Atlin and later m several other "springup-by-night' districts.

 lt is believed that when the Scattl, sailed south Friday night it was the lasr time she would leave ths port under th, Dodwcll & Co.'S flag. Adviccs are mol clear when the thranicr into didernr hands will be made lt might be th, 18th of this month or on September 3I Thelatter date is at the end of the third quarter and contracts could thus bC settled with without difficulties. li th, transfer occurred on the 18th inst, then contractors would have an average cost of shipments made and quarterly rc- bates would be settled proportiona.ly The latter seems very possible m view of the fact that Capt Conncll when he sailed from here Friday night hal ar. dcrs Co call into six different cam rics and clear up an the business h .u' ,

An the rumors that have been cir culatcd in Skagway for the past week or two as to whether the Pacific Coast had bought out Dodwcll & Co., or vice versa received a sharp punctuation point by the P.-L which reached here late last night
 In brief the Pacific Coast has not even a one cent share ib the Dodwell & Co., The latter company has had its boats tranicrred Co a new company and they will act simply as agents that is for tbc Oriental liners Dodwell & Co. will. before many days, cease to exist as the Washington & Alaska S. $.

the TURN OF THE TIDE.

SeW may fondle your fame. like hunter
his game.
nd exult in the roar and the rattle,
Wl1fle the multitudes shout and the can
non blaze out
HAe praise of the victor in battle
M the victor will pine when the shout
ings subside.
nd another will shine at the turn of the
tide.
Ynu may garner your gain, like a farmer
his grain,
And boast of your bonds and your
money;
Huu may gather your wealth by struggle
or stealth,
Ae gathers the bee its honey;
but your honey will pail in the heat of
your pride,
And turn into gall at the turn of the tide
You may subjugate men, as swine to the
pen
BY the rod of the tyrant are driven;
You may flourish the whip with merci-
less grip,
While force to your fingers is given;
But your fingers will fail and the men
you deride
VIII flourish the fail at the turn of the
tide.
You may prosper by wrong, as tyrants
do, long,
And rule like pitiless Nero;
And the truculent slave may Justify rave
In praise of his maculate hero;
But the tyrant will quail when the Judge
shall decide,
And the right will prevail, at the turn of
the tide.

The May New Lippinoott.

Paul Laurence Dunbar's new novel, "The
Sport OF the Gods" is published entire in
the May New Lippincott Magazine" This
is by far the strongest and best fiction from a
pen noted for its humor and pathos. AS
"Uncle TOMS Cabin" in its day held the
reader captive, so does this novel of the new
Negro, enfranchised but still charge upon
our consciences. Opening with a false ar
rest, trial, $50 called, and conviction in
Southern town, the tale shifts to New York.
Here the writer speaks from the heart when
he says of the Southern Negroes who come
North seeking their fortunes SIT was better
for them to sing to God across the Southern
fields" In the cases Of Joe Hamilton and
his pretty sister Kitty this was undeniably
the truth. Towards the end 'yellow" Jour.
nal reporter discovers the secret of the early
arrest His acumen not only brings glory to
his paper but reunites those with whom the
goods" have been sporting"
In addition to the complete novel there is
plenty of good short fiction, varied in theme,
in the May "New Lippincott." A story of
Mexico, by Edwin Knight Buttolph, called
''The Slavery of Noises" gives a glowing
instance of a mans sacrifice for one he
loves "The Supreme Court of Love-" by
Julia MacN1ir Wright, is an amusing prose
farce in an apartment house. Jessie Van Zile
Belden's little story called "Tony" has to do
with the softer side of United States Sena-
tor. In this some violets, lovely woman,
| and innocent little "Tony" are important
factors. The College Tale this month is in
honor of Chicago. 1t is called "The Head
Marshal Of the University of Chicago, and
is written by James Weber Linn, assistant in
the department OF rhetoric in Chicago. He
has written other tales of undergraduate life,
but none TO excel this lively one.
Much has been told about China, but
nothing has been written at once so dramatic
and so convincing in regard to missionary life
as the two incidents given under the title sin
the Dragons Grip" They are recorded by
Frederick Poole, for many years missionary,
to whom and his wife they befel. Mr. Poole
is now working among the chinese in thi7
country. His signature in Chinese charac-
| tiers at the close OF the article is typical.
Everyday Superstitons, by Charles NJ.
