HENS FOR ALASKA.
One Thousand Fowls to Be Taken

w. f. Dickmau of Tacoma, Wash,
has unique scheme for getting rich
at Nome. The basis of the business
will be a thousand Plymouth Rock
hens. With these he expects to sup

eggs to take the place of the packed
variety Eggs bring a dollar dozen
at Nome, and sometimes more. Dick
man experimental last summer with
$50 hens, which laid eggs throughout
the season and in the fall were sold to
restaurants at 50 so each. Being una
BILE to secure as many hens as he wants
in Tacoma, Dickman has gone to Peta-
luna to make his entire purchase. He
will take the hens to Nome in few
days.
Because the sun shines continually
in Nome during the summer he found
it necessary last summer to provide a
black tent. which die not admit the
RAYS of the sun, thus giving the hens
several hours of rest out OF every
twenty-four. Otherwise they Imight
have gone on laying several times each
twenty -four hours.
The hens to be taken to Nome now
will be kept laying all next winter
instead of being slaughtered for the
fall market. AS a substitute for the
black tent Dickman will provide cleo
trio lights for daylight.

PENNYPACKER PACKS PURSE
Caterer to Legislators Gets Right
to Sue for Paw for Supplies.

Governor Pennypacker of Pennsyl-

legislature enabling a caterer of the
name of Russ to sue for pay for sup
plies furnished junketing party OF
legislators who went to New York in
1897 to assist IN the dedication of the
Grant monument. Two other govern
ors, Hastings and Stone, vetoed appro-
priation bills to pay the caterer the
$4,000, on the grounds that it
would establish a bad precedent,
but Governor Pennypacker is of
the opinion that the legislature knows
its business, and if it authorizes junk
cts for it's members those who fur
nish the supplies should he paid for
lhem.
With what enthusiasm the Pennsyl-
vania legislators celebrated the ledi-
cation of the monument may be judged
from these items on the bill:
"Wines and liquors, S3,026 go; cigars,
$3.50: hire of china and breakage. $751;
1t must have been something of con-
gressional funeral.
