AN ARCTIC ROMANCE.
Life Story Of Woman Of the Most
Northerly Indian Tribe.


From the San Jose Cali Mercury.
Mrs. Chris Sonniksen has left San Jose
for Dawson City. She goes by way of
Nome, and thence up the river to the
northern Ell Dorado. The going Of Mrs.
sonniksen was not chronicied in society
events because she Is full-blooded Chug-
Chi the most northerly tribe Of Indians on
the American continent.
Mrs Sonniksen was never south of the
arctic circle until she married, and until
one year ago she was never out OF the Land
of the Midnight Sun in her whole thirty
eight years of life.
Mrs Sonniksen was born in the extreme
northern end of the American continent.
She had many times been to Siberia. had
fished and hunted the seal and the walrus
In the Kamschatkan sea, but never until
she met Chris Sonniksen, miner and for
tune-seeker, who left Denmark many years
ago, had she been as far south as the arctic
circle year ago she came clear out or
the land of cold and ice to the sunniest land
on all the earth. She brought the body of
her dead husband to Watsonvilie for burial.
Afterward she took up her residence on
Cinnabar street, in San Jose, for the pur-
pose of educating her children, who have
been attending the Longfellow School for
the past four terms.
Mrs Sonniksen during her residence here
learned English. 1t was twelve years ago
that her husband left jacksonville and San
luck of all fortune-seekers until the gold
strike on gravel claims was made at Daw-
son City. He was one Of the original To-
Gators of claim on Dominion creek. and
when he died he left fortune estimated at
$500 600 to his squaw widow.
1t was years previous to the klondike ex-
element that Sonniksen met his wife. He
was then trapping and prospecting in the
very far north. A descendant of the
Norsemen, latitude had scares for him.
He spent a winter at Point Barrow, and
there began the courtship with the woman
who bore him his children and is now man
aging his estate. 1t.4
In the course of his career in the north
Sonniksen became impressed with the idea
that vegetables could be grown In the arctic
regions. AS reward for his Investigations
1t may be said, large vegetable farm
near Dawson City Is among the most val
liable assets of the widow.
Mrs. Sonnfksen experienced no difficulty
with the California climate She was hale
and hearty throughout her residence here,
and never for a moment complained of her
change Of latitude. She expects to return
next year, and will then become a perma-
nent resident. She leaves here two chill

Persimmon as a Fruit.
From Mehan's Monthly.

From Nehan's Monthly.
Why is it the persimmon is not more
highly regarded as a fruit? True, 1t Is
difficult to get It at just the right stage to
avoid the "pucker,' but well-ripened and
frosted fruit most persons would surely
consider delicious. and worth little trou-
bic to produce. Possibly II is because the
ripe fruit is difficult to handle What is
known as the Japanese persmmon is more
encouraging to grow than our native ones
in respect to the size of the fruit. being
fully twice as large. But 1t will not thrive
further north than Philadelphia and even
there 1t Is uncertain. The flavor is little
less sweet. but with less quicker"

Furniture at Windsor Castle.
From the London News.


The furniture at Windsor Castle, it has
been noticed by several visitors. has had
the covers removed which used to cloak its
variegated beauty. and may now be seen
in all its splendor. The change is noticed
by some at least of the housewives who
have visited the castle with mixed feelings.
1t is gratifying to the curiosity to see the
real tapestry and other magnifcence, but
at the same time 1.-The old queen was so
careful OF her furniture" as one lady re-
marked. and 1t seemed almost a sacriiege
to leave 1t uncovered every day. The at
tendants who act the part OF guides fully
share this feeling. aThese chairs won't last
long at this rate" Is their verdict. with all
the dust that's brought In here every day"
The splendor OF the furniture is easily rec
ognized, but 1t Is to be feared that many Of
the far more valuable treasures of the
castle are but little appreciated by many of
those who throng to see the rooms. The
pictures are magnificent collection. COM
prising works by the great masters OF the
world-among them that Guido. whom the
guides. naturally enough. allude to as
'"Guide-o." One most gratifying thing In
connection with the management of the
visits of the public Is that no attempts are
made to extract tips from the parties that
are shown around" fact due, we believe,
to the king express desire.
