ALASKA BOUNDARY MARKS.
American Army Engineers Prove Dis.
puted territory Never Belonged
to Great Britain.

Skaguay advices say the question
monument in the disputed territory
between Alaska and British Yukon has
been settled.
Lieut.. Owens had found two monu-
ments in perfect repair and definitely
located the place where third one had
been destroyed. Owens also found an
old stormhouse on the summit. This
was called the boundary house when
the Russians occupied the country.
This establishes beyond all doubt
that the Russians did occupy the terri
tory now disputed and that the boun-
dairy line, according to the treaty, is
where the Americans claim it to be.

Carew-A Fight Worth

Jim Carew, who lives ten miles above
Fort Bassinger, Fla, on the river, has
some fine cattle, and the best of the lot
he pastures in an inciosed pen near the
river. There were four cows, bull
~ and two calves in the lot the other

he trotted out with his gun to see what
siled his pets. Three gators had man
aged to get into the Enclosure from
the river side, and while one was stalk

to the waters edge, the other two were
Sighting the enraged cattle.
Gator No. /, the biggest of the lot
and an ugly customer, was fighting the
bull while No. 2 was trying to keep
cut Of the way of the frequent and
furious rushes of the cows. No. had
the calf in charge. 1t was bleating
loudly and this served to infuriate the
cattle
The fight between the bull and his
antagonist was furious and bloody
one The bull charged up to the sau-
1ian, when the latter nimbly darted
aside and gave the bovine terrible
blow with it's tail that staggered him
With loud below of rage the bull
turned quickly and with good luck
hooked the gator on the side, half

Meanwhile the cows were having

the gator and, watching their chance,

One COW was caught by this means and

with the utmost fury pitched at the

Parts Of the Republic Are a. Much

The northern third of France and
half Of Belgium are today more Teu-
tonic than the south OF Germany. This
should not occasion surprise when we
remember the incessant downpour of
Teutonic tribes during the whole his
toric period. 1t was q constant pro-
cession Of Gothsfrom all points of
the compass-Franks, Burgundians,
and others. France was entirely over
run by the Franks, with the exception
Of Brittany, by the middle Of the sixth
century, says the London Express. All
through the middle ages this part OF
France was German in language and
customs as we'll. The very name of
the country Is Teutonic. It has the
same origin as Franconia in Southern
Germany. In. 812 the council Of Tours,
away down south, ordained that every
bishop should preach both in the Ro-
nance and. the Teutonic Languages
The Franks preserved their German
speech 400 years !. after the conquest.

ANCIENT AMERICAN MAPS
Records Made by Indians Which Date Back
Many Centuries

The oldest maps in America are to
be found in Arizona and Texas. How
old they are may not be said, but they
date, back many centuries. The Indian
has left behind him many records. In
his rude implements of peace and war
fare-his knives, arrows, axes, spears,
vessels, mortars, quoits, etc., we can
read to-day the history of prehistoric
races, their habits and customs, their
social life, their tribal relations, their
occupations and their pastimes. From
picture writings we gain additional in
sight into the ways of these priml-
tive people. It now appears that some
of these early jewellers in the land
were map-makers of no mean ability.
The traditions of some of the tribes of
Arizona, Texas and Mexico held init
mate relations with each other, and
their inhabitants travelled back nd
forth from country to country for cen,
turtles.
In Tenaja canyon, Tex, are unmis-~
taxable evidences of this. The lay of
the land is such as to make this can
yon the natural pass for large area
of country north and south of that
point. The travel which has passed
through this canyon has worn the solid
rock of the trail to depth of not less
than three feet. Even though the re-
gion about we're densely populated, it
must have taken three centuries to
wear through this adamantine path.
