The party are ali looking we'll, after an arduou, trip across Siberian steppes for d distance of 1900 miles, thelr mean, of loconotion being horses, reindeer and dogs.
 Mr. Dc Windt undertook the trip for the London Daily Express, and his eX- P r.cnccs en route are more thrilling [ ,aA those of George l[cnnan, who first ptIctIa'od the dOma.n of the great waite Car.
 Leaving Paris on December l9, Mr. DtWtndt and his companions went to lrkut>k part Of the journey being made over the Trans-Siberian railway to that place.

There dogs were pro cared and another stretch of waste, l,J00 miles long, was traverSed along the coast to East Cape, which place was req, he'd on May 70.
 There the party was picked up by tle revenue cutter Ihetis, ao already told in the NUGGET and landed at Cape Prince Of M aIt>, where they were most kindly treated by Missionary W. f. Lopp and the teacher at that place, Mrs. BcruarGi.

Stean, WhaIer karluk Sighted the PortlaUd On June s, 6 aud 7-BOth Jeanie and Portland Are iu the Arctic and Thought to Be Safe.

The steam wEaler Karluk, Cap'ain McGrogor, reached Nome yesterday morning from Bering straits with one whale aS her catch this season.
 The Karluk left San Francisco in April last. Captain McGlesor states that on June j, 6 and | he sighted the Portland between Cape Prince of Wales aud the Diomedes. The first two days the Portland was under steam, but was drifting northward with the ice pack.
 Captain McGregor also saw the Jeanc early in May south of St. Law renee island, and had Captain Mason of the Jeanie followed the wha'cr, then en route to the north he would have long ere this reached Nome,
 Natives at the Diomede, also confirm the report that the Jeanie had gene through the straits subsequent to the time that the Portland went through.
 Speaking of the two overdue vessels, Captain MoGregor stated that he be- Iicved there was no cause Tor anX etN l for either the steamers or thor pds- sengcrS, unless the latter became de- moralized and attempted to leave the ships. The ice pack i, unusually heavy and it has been going steadily north ward for several weeks. driven thither by constantly prevailing southerly winds. A northeaster, says Captain McGregor, would open the pack and permit the vessels to escape.
 There are nine whalers in the straits and off the Siberian shore, the total catch of whales this spring being twelve.
 The revenue cutter Thetis arrived from the straits Sunday night, whithe, she went on June in quest of the missing steamers. She saw nothing of them, but the natives reported that both steamers had passed northwald. The Thetis left again on Monday even ing for the Arctic, where she will re- main for some time looking for the Portland and Jeanie. She will, in all probability be joined by the Bear.
 Howard Turner, agent of the North ern Commercial Company, says the Portland has provisions to last for q couple of years. She also has plenty of coal; tne same is true of the Jeanie, bat he confidently expects to see both vessels in Nome within two or three , weeks.
 Captain McGregor, of the karluk, has been whaling in these waters for | 2S years, and. as already stated, he k disposed to take hopeful view as to the chances of escape for the ice beleaeuered steamers.
 Captain + lis, of the Pacific Steam Whaling Company, also wha!er oi many years experience, recltes the fact that away back in the seventies, he whaler Minerva went through Bering l straits in the ice rack and did not escape until July 70. The Minerva Was d sailing vessel.
 Steam Whaler Jeanette, Capt. Newth. arrived in port this morning from the DUmedes, with a catch of three whales. She brings no further news of the miss ing steamers than that reported above. | The straits are reported clear of ice. and the pack is said to be movin. out of Kotzebue sound.

Although well known to travellers
and collectors Of curiositles, the horn
nut. OF sacred nut" Of Japan was al
most wholly unknown to fruit and nut
dealers in this country prior to 1888,
when n New York commission mer-
chant received the first large consign-
ment. They are called sacred nuts
because used in certain forms Of Jap
anese worship, where they are placed
on the altar and ignited. Being very
rich in oil. they burn with n hoe blush
flame and give or a peculiar Odor, the
fumes being supposed to rise as an nc
ceptable incense to the gods. They
grow under water and have n leaf like
an American lily, the form Of the nut
itself being an almost exact counter
part of an Asian buffalo's head, droop-
ing horns and all. In the raw state
they are hard and tasteless, but when
cooked the flavor resembles that Of
boiled chestnuts. They are said to re-
tain their edible qualities for upward
Of twenty years.

The man who brings out a new hat
almost invariably remarks when some
body with an investigating turn Of
mind asks him where he got II, how
much it cost. etc: ''Oh. I've had that
hat for about a month now. It's far
from being new"
However, the same hat, when care.
fully scrutlnized, does not show any
signs OF G and generally looks as
spick and span as when it came from
the packers box. II you question the
owners statement as TO the time Of
his possession. he will usually tell you
that he has 0 worn 1t. but 1t has
been around the house for at least
thirty days.
A woman is different. When she
gets a new bonnet, she is anxious TO
get it properly placed and get out on
the street. IL she meets an %acquaint-
ance and words Of ecstasy and delight
are not forthcoming, she invariably
gets mad.
Cant you see my new hat? | just
bought It. Amt it sweet? And only
paid $3.50 for It. The millincr told
me she had held out for $1,000 and re-
duced the price for my special ben
eft"
That's the reverse in human nature
among the sexes.-Plttsburg Press.

rhe EnrII,h Crown Rubr.

The ruby Of the English crown is
famous in popular estimation. but-his-
tory apnrt-what does the connolsseur
say as to Its value? asks the London
Chronicle. Is 1t n ruby or is It only a
fine and large spinel? Some people
call n spinel n splnel ruby. but a spinel
is not a ruby. The stone last named,
when it is of more than three and a
half carats in weight and hawless all
through, is more precious than n per
feet diamond of the same size. When
It is considerably larger. its value is
not to be estimated and may be any
thing. according to the passion Of the
collector. But the spinel. n much less
hard crystal, even when it reaches the
weight of four carats. is valued at
half the worth Of a four carat dla-
mond. There are famous royal rubies,
but hat which flames in the royal
row is. according to n common rumor
among experts, the lowlier spinel.

checks For the Communion Table.
The author OF The Sabbath In Purl-

which prevailed in several New Eng
land churches that made It the duty
OF the deacOns to walk up and down
the aisles Of the church at the close Of
each service and deliver to every per-
son who in their judgment was fitted
to M a metal check. which en-
titled him at the next celebration Of
the Lords Supper to join in the sacred
ordinance.

Lords table had this check and to col
lect 1t from the communicate before
