 to Candle City With a Poke.

It is reported that pay has been found on three creeks tributary to Squirrel.
 The Williams party are camped 4ot miles up the Kobnk with IA head ot horses. They cut hay last fall to keep their livestock during the winter. Steinbach reported that early next spring the party intended to cross the divide to the Colville river country.
 Captain Coosan of the steamer John Reilly, is reported as camped about 800 miles up the Kobuk. They have erected number of cabins and are prospecting.
 Mir. Sullivan states that Benson and Hotaling, who last fall worked on Howey X Kepner's claim, No. 6 on Candle, below Blanks discovery, state that in 50 pans they took out sl2o6. Hotaling and Benson were snipers and only recently told what they found. The creek is not more than six or eight feet wide where they found this phenomenal pay.

Postoffice Inspector kimbaII Starts for the Kuskokwim to Look for

Captain E. J. Walker, commanding at Fort St. Michael, writes R. $. Ryan an interesting letter under date of March 5, from which the following extracts are taken:
 "We have had no mail for over 8 month. Word comes from the mail clerk&tCircle City to the effect that new contracts have been let and that Nome and St. Michael are to get two mails . month via Valdes and 1liamna lake; also that the time of the mail from the States was to be shortened from 65 to "A days, which is absurd, and that the mail left, 1 think, on Decem- Der 27 by this latter route. Kimball, the,nail inspector, will start tomorrow in search of it, and has an idea that he will strike it somewhere on the Kusko- kwim. About 30 pounds of second class mail came in recently via Katmai. It is supposed that the stage company has the contract, and they have not put a team through this winter.
 "CaplainsRichardso was ordered tC the Philippines, to leave not later thar December 3l, last. A board of all the general officers of the United States army was ordered to meet to decide what military posts were to be aban' doued and what new ones bs;ilt.

Deering, March 10.-J. r. Johansen, sub-mail contractor for the route be tween Nome and Point Barrow, was frozen to death about March ,, thirty miles or so west of Deering. His body was found.
 The mail route between Nome and Point Barrow is under contract to J. T Lindseth, of Unalaklik, and Johansen was the sub-contr raclor. JOhansen and his two assistants took mail from Teller to Mary's Igloo, thence ,o Shismareff, Deering and to Cape Blossom Mission at Kotzebue.
 Johansen left here little over a month ago, since which time he has bcen taking the mails from his assist ant at Teller, Mary's Igloo or Shisma- ref, according to the progress made by the latter, and bringing it forward on the route until he met his second as sistant Mathis 1. K. Nilluka, when he would transfer the mail to the latter, who brought it on to Deerlng and to kotzebue, and, returning %ith the out going mail, turned it over to Johansen and brought the fresh mail back to Deering. The place of meeting of the two men was anywhere between Shis- mareff and Dcering, at the mouth oi the lnmachuk.
 Nilluka left Deering to meet JOi.an- sen on March 6 On March :, at about $ o'clock, he returned to Deering reaching here in an exhausted condi tion. His story is as follows:
 On the evening of the 9th Nilluks reached their usual camping place about 30 miles west of hepe on thu coast, and saw that Joheusen had al ready reached there and made camp Two reindeer were feeding at the ent of their stake ropes and third deer was loose.

| was mKe a weary mariner sailing over the sea. I was coming near the harbor of peace. 1 could see a great host of my departed loved ones con- Ing down to the Shore and waving to me. and I was waving back. l could recognize their different faces. But just as was about to enter the har- bor of peace a great storm arose and I was driven back. The storm drove me far out of sight of the heavenly land. Now must sail the weary voy- age of life over again."
 And so, my aged Christian friends, believe that you are the favored ones. You are the Christians who will carry the message to our dear ones as we'll as to your own. When you go, I want you personally to take to my mother and father my love, just as my father sent his love to his boy. Tell them for me that by the grace of God we all want to meet them soon.
 Thus, ye aged Christians, I want you to realize that the words of my text were written for you. ''They shall still bring forth fruit in their old age" means that your work and usefulness will not be finished until you draw your last breath. until you take your glorious departure. I want you to realize that your work in life Is just the same kind of work as was that aged farmers who was planting some young trees one day, when a neighbor came along and said: What are you planting those trees for? You will never live long enough to see them grow up." No" answered the old man; T never expect to see them grow up, but my grandfather planted yonder aged trees so that 1 could play under them and pluck their fruit, and want to plant these trees so that my children and my children's children can eat of their fruit after I am dead" So, aged Christians, as your aged parents sweet ened your life when you were young, you, by the blessing of God, are sweet ening ours. May your work be to you a happy work Antil at last the angel of the resurrection comes to call you : to your eternal reward. May we be as faithful to our trust as you, who are still faithfully bearing fruit in your old age.

Thoughtlessness of others is nothing more than downright selfishness, which is the curse of humanity. The man who on leaving an elevated train pauses at the head of the stairs to light his cigar Is selfish. He incom- modes all who are behind him. The woman who insists on passing up or down the stairs ahead of the eager crowd, slowly, indifferent to the haste of others. must be an awful thing at home. He who pauses to tie his shoe regardless of the interruption of traffic is a brute in his family. l see all these things a dozen times day and wonder what kind of lives such persons lead In the family circle. One of the common evidences of thoughtlessness Is seen in those who stand in the middle of the sidewalk to chat while multitudes are forced to defect or make an offset in order to pass them. The more see of men the greater is my respect for asses, dogs and mules.-New York Press.

X Roman dinner at the house of a wealthy man consisted chiefly of three courses. All sorts of stimulants to the appetite were first served up, and eggs were indispensable to the first course. Among the various dishes we may in- stance the guinea hen, pheasant, night ingale and the thrush as birds most in repute. The Roman gourmands held peacocks in great estimation. especial ly their tongues. Macrobius states that they were first eaten by Horten- sius, the orator, and acquired such re- pute that single peacock was sold for 90 denarii, the denarius being equal to about eightpence halfpenny of our money.-Chambers' Journal

The nuts sell on an average at about fourpence per pound. If only twenty seven trees are planted on an acre, the income would be about f135 per acre. London Answers.

olonel Anderson's Celebration.

There have been few men in MisSou- II more royalty endowed with gifts both mental and physical, than Colo nel George w. Anderson, one of my predecessors in congress. He was the prince of stump speakers, and nothing could depress his buoyancy of spirit He believes that the world was made for people to enjoy themselves In, and he lives up thoroughly to his theory. Eat, drink and be merry" Is his mot. to and his creed.
 In many respects he has always re- minded me of that immortal English statesman and orator, Charles James Fox.
 Along In the late sixties, while An derson was still a Republican, the news reached the city of Louisiana that the Republicans of New York had gained a tremendous victory, and all the Republicans in the eastern half of Pike met at Louisiana to celebrate the event. They had a great Jubllation, oratorical, pyrotechnical and other wise. Of course such an exuberant soul ns Colonel Anderson was in his glory.
 In a day or two, however, they got the straight of the thing, and. To, the Republicans, instead of having won a sweeping victory, had met with a stunning defeat.
 The Democrats then did the growing and joked Anderson unmercifully about his jollifcation speech. when he exclaimed, Well, by love, they can't take that drunk away from us any wayv' CHAMP CLARK.
