REINDEER IN ALASKA
Result of Their Introduction into III.
Territory.

year lSo2 was a prosperous one for

reindeer into the far northern tarritor,,
Inc total herd. the report SAYS. ia now
o'l4S OF these 1854 were born during the
spring OF 1902 and 80 deer were purchased
curing last summer. All these reindeer ara
distributed, as follows: $40 loaned to mis-
slonary stations of the Presbyterian, Nor
Meg1an Evangelical Lutheran Moravja,
Friends and Roman Catholic mission sta
tions; 499 loaned to 8 Laplanders; 1.O25 are
the property of the Congregational, Swed-
Ism evangelical, Episcopal, Presbyterian
norwegian Evangelical Lutheran, Nora
wan, Friends and Roman Catholic mission
stations, and 2.6O9 belong to A Eskimo
herders, and 369 are still remaining in the
government herd to be hereafter loaned
With the herds are q Eskimo apprentices
learning the care and management of the
deer.
The winter of 1901 was favorable ono
for the reindeer industry. While it was the
coolest since 1894 IA degrees below zero at
Teller, there were few prolonged storms.
The snowfall was light, and there was no
thaw during the fall that resulted in COW
ering the moss with ice, as was the case
the previous year, hence the reindeer had
easy access to the moss under the snow.
The spring came unusually early and was
mild and dry. which was favorable during
the fawning season
1t Is hoped in time that each missionary
settlement will have herd of at least
5000 reindeer.
The question next of interest after the
question whether the reindeer can be
brought safe to Alaska and successfully
raised there has been, all along, whether
the native Eskimo people can make good
herders and teamsters. This question has
been settled in the affirmative. 1t requires
a high order of skill in both these lines to
utilize the possibilities of this wonderful
animal.
Domestic reindeer according to DR. Jack
son. make 1t possible to establish and sus-
tain mission stations with success in 10
calities that otherwise could not be reached.

The Worlds Banana Garden.

AT San Pedro I was In the heart of one
Of the great banana-growing sections of
the world. l saw scores OF carloads of
the fruit at the port. more in transit and
cords of them at the railroad trackside,
awaiting shipment. I was particularly
interested In the work of an American
company working along the railway few
miles south of San Pedro. A fourteen hum
dred acre plantation has been laid out,
with 500 acres cleared, and work is being
pushed to get the remaining acreage ready
for planting. A force Of men began plant
ing the banana bulbs on March 10. The
company referred to Is the Santa Barbara
Plantation Company. Of which Colonel
Before the year closes they will have the
largest plantation in Honduras.
The growing of bananas there Is reve-
lat1on. Plants three months old are ten
feet high They begin to produce fruit in
from seven to eight months after planting.
Every bulb planted produces plant and
every plant produces a bunch of bananas.
There seem to be no failures. The fruit Is
sold at the trackside on long-term con-
tracts. There Is no fuctuation in prices,
except gradual advance. Prices average
10 per cent higher than a year ago, with
prospects of another advance of a like
amount before the year closes. I never
saw country where I was so impressed
easily along so many lines. The climate is
deightful. The mercury shows that 1t Is
not almost every day but 1t does not feel
so. You never see heat waves shimmering
before YOU. Neither earth nor buildings
seem to radfate heat. In the shade it is
ever cool. At night you are blessed with
refreshing. invgorating trade wind from
the northeast The water is good, yellow
fever is unknown and malarial fever rarely
heard of in Honduras. 1 never saw a
snake tarantula. scorpion or even a big
spider while I was in the country. What
more could one ask for?"

Lawrence, Dec. lex Chancellor
Snow has just sent to the printers his
first list of Kansas diptera, or flies. It is
said to be the first list of its kind ever
published, and includes the results of
25 years of specimen collecting by DR..
Snow in Douglas county and western
Kansas. The list contains 1872 species,
representing 43 families. Even this
number of varieties of flies in Kansas
is not complete. DR.. Snow is still work
ing on the Kansas diptera.
The summary of species embraces

It is shown by DIR. Shows catalogue
that there are eleven kinds of MOSQUE
toes, eleven kinds of horseflies and
thirty-five kinds of flies in Kansas that
resemble bees more or less. Most of
the 1872 species are parasites and feed
largely on other insects and flies. The
tachinIdae or tachina flies of sixty-five
species feed mostly on grasshoppefs
and help preserve the crops to a GER
tain extent in western Kansas by eat
ing the grasshoppers.
DR.. Snow discovered that these flies
destroyed the grasshoppers largely in
49,
pers had been so disastrous the year
preceding. The tachinidae Matched out
on the grasshoppers and by the time
the latter grew to destructive size the
flies had grown and killed the grass
hoppers. The conopidae also eat the
vitals of wasps and bees.

KNOCKS OUT PARTNER.
Kennedy Got Fresh and Jeffries
Tapped Him on the Jaw.

Boston, Dec. 16.-That Champion Jas.
]. Jeffries still possesses a knockout
punch was shown here when, in a prac-
tice bout. he knocked out his sparring
partner, big Joe Kennedy, the Cali
fornia heavyweight
The champion went down to Steve
O'Donnell's gymnasium to have a little
workout, and he ordered O'DonneN and
Kennedy to put on the gloves. So well
was Jeffries feeling that he decided to
take on both at the same time. He
would spar a fast round with Kennedy
and then, without any rest, he would
take on O'Donnell
In this way the champion fought sew
eral rounds. Kennedy, in his bout, be-
gan to mix matters with Jehries. Ken
nedy managed to land a stiff left on
Jeffries' head and then hooked a right
to the jaw. Jeffries was on the alert in
an instant, and, quick as a flash, he
ducked and landed flush on Kennedy
Jaw Kennedy went down and out. 1t
was some time before he regained his
senses After Kennedy had come to
Jeffries expressed regret, and there was
no sign of hard feeling
It is thought that Kennedy was max
ing a grand stand play before some
friend, and when Jeffries decided to call
a halt he simply sent a swing that did
the trick.

A WEE OR a MAID.
An Ottawa Woman Uncertain OF Her
Legal Status for a Time.

Last Saturday morning 16-year-old Fora
Finch. as she was known to her associ-
ates at the Marsh house, did not know
whether she was wife or maid By advice
of a friend she took a direct method of
finding out.
Hence it was that during the day his
honor, Judge Kaiser, was rather aston
ished at the demand of a young and good
looking girl to know if "a man named
Negley had recently taken out a marriage
license toto marry Fora Finch?''
His honor consulted the record and
discovered that on November Is A. E.
Negley had received such license, and that
furthermore Rev. ]. R. Daley had report
ed on that same day he had united the
parties.
The young lady breathed a sigh of in
finite relief and departed. She was Mrs.
Negley, nee Finch.
But what of Negley? The girl-wife tells
a queer story concerning him.
She is the daughter of a respectable
farmer of the country. Prior to her pres
ent engagement she has been employed at
various restaurants of the city. At one
of them she formed the acquaintance of
a young man who wanted to marry her.
She consented To be sure she had
very Indifferent knowledge of him; she
isn't now even positive which of two
names she has heard applied to him is
rightfully his, but-she married him.
They took apartments in Mrs. Lott S
fiat on Main street. She was very happy
for a few weeks. Then he disappeared
and she was cast on her own resources
