Boone and his compatriots had done
their work, have thought of this feat
of the citizens of Eagle City? In
Kansas case many towns were estab-
lished after laborious preparation
which disappeared in quicker time
than they were created, and have long
since dropped off the gazetteers and
the maps. Some ambitious Kansas
towns with imposing names back in
the SOS and COS are now corn fields.
History has forgotten them Even
tradition is little dubious as to the
spots on which they stood.
But no such fate is likely to come to
Eagle City. Lawton and several other
towns in Oklahoma in recent years
had as swift rise as this latest--the
latest except Snyder, which was born
a day afterward-accession to that
territory's map. All are on the map
still. All are fourishng In fact.
Oklahoma itself was lightning crea-
titon. The place that we call Okla.
homa, which, at certain noontime in
April, 1889, had not a single inhabi.
tant, possessed permanent popula'
ton of $4,000 before sunset on that
day, with residences, hotels, restaur-
ants, stores, banks, printing Offices
and the general equipment of mod
ern community. Its $1,000 people in
1890 were found by Uncle Sans cen
sus takers in 1900 to have increased
to 39S,000. Probably they number
100000 or 100000 now.-Exchange.

Woman is Accused of Being the Muir
derer of Burdick.

The finger of suspicion in the Bur
dick murder case is pointing toward
woman whose home is in the Elmwood
district, Buffalo, n. Y. Her career Is
known to the police. By far the most
important statement made since the
tragedy was given out Tuesday by Su-
perintendent Bull, who heretofore has
had but little to say. He announced
the subject and that the motive had
been established, and that in due time
there will be an arrest.

NOT ASKING FAvoRs.

And is it not remarkable that the Alaskan should wait until Judge Will liams' appointment was an assured fact before it would come out and admit that the governor was right in stand iug by himg Is this econium on the governor the result of serious con temptation ot the fact that the grand old man Is again on top?"- Juneau Record-Miner.
 On top of whatg A government ap- prOpriatiOus
 The Record-Miner has become so used to toadying that it cannot imagine anyone acting from any other motive than a selfish one. Gov. Brady has no iayors for which the Daily Alaskan is applicant The opinion of this paper has not changed one iota as to the utter ineompeteney or uuitness from every standpoint ot the chief eS- ecutiye of this district.
 This paper was one Of the first in the district Co endorse the candidacy ot Judge Williams for worlds fair com missioner. It has stood by the candi- dacy without was,r.og for aa instant The Record-N.'ucr knows th.s, as it has published clippings on the subject taken from these columns. But the Rccorl-Mincr could not bc fair. To has been so long since 10 tried To be so that it has forgotten how.

The Electrical Current.

The path traversed by heavy cur rent of electricity in passing through the body is matter of great impor- tance. The most dangerous is from one hand to the other. because the re- slstanco of the path is low and because tho current passes near tho heart Hence 1t is a good rule in handling live conductors to use but ono hand. An important rule to observe fin rcscuing a person in contact with live wire and when 1t is impossible to cut off the cur rent is to push the victim off with one foot. Even should the current pass from one foot to the other through the rescuer the resistance of the path Is considerable. and as the current does not pass near the heart serious Injury is not likely to result.

saved Ann a DuckinE.

A colonial shrew who was threatened with the ducking stool was once saved by this plea:
 "You wish to duck Ann Willott to euro herF" her defender declared. Now if she be not cured where is the gain In ducking herr And if she be cured all tho women who now keep a guard over thelr tongues through dlstaste Co be likened to such a known. notorious and contemptible scold as Ann will do SO no longer: but although it Is not Ike any should become such as she, yet all will scold little more than now they do. the check of her example being re- moved. Now, it Is better that Ann, be- ing a singlo woman without family to affilct. should go unpunished and un- ducked. but despised by all, and wag her tongue as she will. standing there in for the whole town, than that she should be silenced and the tongues Of other women run more free"
 This argument seems to have pre- vailed, for Ann Willot was never ducked.-Youth's Companion.

Tho Way the Flood of Inspired Ideas

 If the fiction writer has his delicious moments, when he tastes the Joys which come with the excitement of creative eomposition-and these he un- loubtedly has-also he knows distress Ing periods of mental apathy.
 He has been working away at top speed. full of gladness in that subtle fabric which his pen weaves in the warp and wool of paper and ink. Ills head is packed with inspired ideas, like q gift box from the gods. His hopes rIde high. His ambitions scrape the clouds.
 Then something happens. It is not a snap. break, crash-nothing so tan gible. It Is Just a ceaslng. Abruptly, unexpectedly. all his fine thoughts van fish. No longer Is life country of majestic. white robbed heights and al- turing purple toned valleys. All Is flat and gray and bleak.
 Just about now, if the writer only knew 1t. Is a most excellent time to go fishing.
 At last. bafled. discouraged, heart sick. he sits with his head in his hands, contemplating with foolish self pity the melancholy spectacle of himself
 But like drought and flood, war and pestilence and all other Ills great and small, 1t passes. And he knows not how or when it goes. Days after he wakes up to find himself. pen in hand. hard at work again. Of It's own oe- cord apparently the machine has set itself in motion.-Sewell Ford in The Reader,
