Hat EtfQUette.

Tipping the hat is a rare thing among
men when there are no women around.
A few fine old fellows cherish the habit
of tipping to each other and to stran-
gers when introduced, but ordinarily
the hand never touches the brim. In
business offices there is no sort Of Ell
quette. Men in the sweep and rush of
business have no time to give thought
TO hats. But certain decencies should
prevail. On entering a private Office
look at the head of the occupant. If
he has his hat on, keep yours on; if his
hat is off, remove yours. The removal
Of your hat is a compliment and a
courtesy and does not indicate that you
are inferior or subservient-New York

PAYING TELLERS' ERRORS.
Those Oficials Are Usually Ready to
Recfifx MisfnkrH


A bank officer, referring in a recent
address to the responsibility of paying
tellers, declares hat the idea that such
officials were rarely willing to rectify
mistakes had little basis in fact. He
added: How is il that there exists In
the minds of many the idea that pay
ing tellers are inclined to resent even
the suggestion that they make errors
In counting money? 1 have never
known one who made the slightest
claim to infallibility. Who has not
heard the ancient and oft told story OF
a teller who was asked by a person for
whom he has cashed a check If he had
not made a mistake? AS the narrative
usually runs the self satisfied money
counter behind the desk is inclined to
become indignant and replies in a
pompous and abrupt ann that he
never makes mistakes. The consider
ate party then states that the amount
paid him exceeded that named in the
check, but the teller still maintains
that there can be no error either way,
as be never makes mistakes.
Where is the teller who upon being
told he had made an error would fail
to politely inquire as to the nature of
the same? The inference is that tell.
ers are possessed of so much vanity
and conceit that they lose the amount
said to be overpaid rather than ac-
knowledge an error. How unlikely
and ridiculousI'-New York Post.

Letter from Nome.

NOME, June 25.-I arrived here several days ago after very pleas ant trip, and find the season very late. The ice did not bother us any coming up until We got within 20 miles of Nome, and it is still hanging along the coast.
 The winter work here turned out very good. and it looks as though the country had a great future be fore it. In fact they have struck pay not only in the benches but clear to the hill tops in places. Some shafts where good pay was stuck are 200 feet deep.
 They haven't got any freight into Council at this date on account of high water in the river, so you see the season will be short. Everyone agrees that last winter was the hardest ever known in Alaska, and both Nome and Council were very short of foodstuffs this spring.

Buys 10, ,ooo Acres.

J. H. Costello, the Buffalo milli- onaire, has added 10000 acres of Kayak oil lands to his holdings, previously 10000 acres.
 The land is located on Cape Suk- lin, of the Kayak district. It was owned by o. L. Willoughby. The consideration was between $25 ,OOO and $3O,OOO and royalty of 64 per cent. The land sold was taken up by Willoughby and associates in 1902. It has been examined by MT. Burroughs, the we'll known London oil expert, and is pro- nounced to be among the best in the Kayak district.
 This is one of the largest oil land deals that has been closed by an individual operator since the gusher was discovered by the English com pany. The Cape Suklin section is noted especially for its large seep- ages and it's unbroken formation, and experts are certain, when it is developed, that it will be large producer of petroleum.
 it is Mr. Costello's intention to immediately begin the work of de veloping the land. A we'll boring plant will be at once put to work and other improvements will be made.

Railroad News.

The Juneau Dispatch contains the following message regarding the Valdez railroad. It is dated one week later than the message re- ceived here, to the same effect. It seems rather strange that there should be no news of the letting of the contract, except in telegrams from the promoters of the road.
 NEW YOKK. July 13.-(Special to Dispatch.) It is announced to-day that the Valdez-Copper river line has been financed. The con- tract for the construction work was let to James P. Mcdonald and John Hayes Hammond. The contract calls for the completion of the road within fourteen months. The pro- motors have placed $1 100000 to the credit of the contracting firm, who announce that they will have 1000 laborers and all the necessary material in the field by September.

 The Santa Ana has brought to the English Co.,, another consign- ment of tools and outfit and large number of men. They now have about 100 men and will start Il couple more wells, as we'll as going to lower level on the gusher. They have sent number of men to Yakatag and Icy bay to do assessment work but nothing more.

 Jack Rice who is evidently buf- falOed by the wicked waters is determined to remain at Yakatae till he can walk out, so We need not expect to see him in Valdez till we'll on in the winter.

I9 DAYS
THREE MEN HAVE ROUGH
 EXPERIENCE
Going From The Hzina
To The Panama. Lost Their Out fit on Panama and Nearly
 Starved.

The report has just come in that E. C. Munson, one of the govern ment packers, while camping at the Panama crossing saw raft com ing down the river; upon its near approach he disccrned the prostrate form of man lying across the logs. He quickly secured the raft, and carried the man to his tent. where he soon brought him to con sciosness, and then fed him spar ingly as he was ravenouslv hungry. He was MT. Behrends, who stated that he in company with Matthew Reagan and another man, left Mig ina and crossed over onto the Tam ana. where they lost everything, and trying to raft down the stream met with all sorts of mishaps, and were l9 days without food.
 Behrends said his two compan- ions were somewhere back along the river. Munson immediately set out to look for them, and after a long tramp found them, but some other mushers had previously met them and administered to their wants. The three are now in good condition and will finish the season prospecting.

Royce Still Moving.

Notices have been served upon the retail liqour dealers of Juneau, that District Attorney Boyce has filed in the District Clerks office a remonstrance against the issuing of their licenses for the current year, for violation of the section which prohibits their keeping open house on Sunday. The list includes every liquor selling establishment in the city. The matter will come before the district court soon and the outcome will be watched with a great deal of interest.

The Ladies' First Attempt.

Tuesdays between the hours of 1 and 4 r. m. are ladies' days at the bowling alleys, and on last Tuesday the privilege was largely taken advantage of.
 Shortly alter one o'clock ladies began to arrive with their escorts and matches were immediately made up. In a short time the alley was filled with a joyous party. The game was new to most of the ladies, and for the first couple of games the balls would roll off into the gutter much to the satisfaction of the pin boys. But the players soon discovered their mistake in handling the balls, and after that they began to figure up some very good scores considering it their first offense. When they got rightly warmed into the game the following scores were made:
