 V Such an aspersion against the fair name of Demostnenes and Cicero was never before recorded in history as has just been perpetrated by Edward F. Moulton of Cleveland. o. Now of course the world demands who is this Moulton who hath so quickly assumed the mantle of omniscience. In answer it can be said that Mr. Moulton is superintendent of the public schools of Cleveland and in common with many other professors" what he thinks he knows is not to be found in print. To the plaudits of his admiring fellows MT. Moulton went on to say that the knowledge of ora tory has become so general these days that were either of the two distinguished gentlemen hereinbefore mentioned alive they would not be able to reach up to the modern standard. This comes like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. Until Mir Moulton came upon the stage we had supposed, together with historians, rhetoricians, poets and other persons of renown, that Demosthenes and Cicero knew a thing or two about oratory but it seems that we have erred. Who could dispute the word of the super intendent of the Cleveland public schools? The weighty tonnes of history and the dust at his feet. Why, he even insinuates that if Demosthenes and Cicero were alive today thsy would not be able to get a job at spellbinding for either the re- publican or the democratic candidates. It is doubtful whether they could elect a county commissioner. How are the mighty fallen and the great trampled into the mire by MT. Moulton of Cleveland. O. It is cruel to shatter the allusions that have filled the heart of the small boy with ambition for So many years and to hurl down the idols of generations now dead.
 Another petrified man has been un- earthed and no doubt will soon be con- l spicuous in one of our museums. The l discovery of a petrified man always re- minds one of grave hoaxes that have been worked on the public by gentlemen with more enterprise than honesty. In fact such phenomena have become so 1 questionable in character that one can 1 hardly be blamed for cycling them with suspicion. It is safe to assume that few of the real petrified men escape the clutches of scientists and that the speci- mems exhibited to us for the munifcent consideration of 10 cents are fakes. By ] the way, there Is a noticeable absence l of the travelling museum Tn the land At least they are giving Birmingham wide berth.

STEAMBOAT CREWS COMING

Dawson Ne7vs, March 4: General Manager William Fairbanks of the Northern Commercial Co.,, who re- turned this week from the outside, expects the first steamboat men for his company to arrive here about the middle of this month. The maj ajority who are coming ever the ice to Dawson probably will not arrive before April I. The men who will join the fleets at White horse will not haqe to travel be- yond that poirt, but there is large number of boats scattered along the river at intermediate points this year which will call for the atten- tion of full crews in good season to have the craft fully manned when the crisis comes at the breaking of the river. Among the steamers in those remote places are the Light and the Tyrrell, near Selkirk; a White Pass steamer or two at Kirk man; two Northern Commercial steamers near Fortymile; the Light ming near Washington creek, and the Kerr near Circle. The North. ern Commercial also has steamers in safe place at Stewart, but they will not be manned before the river breaks. Dad Forster is running the Glen roadhouse.
 Howe & Mckenzie have finished drifting on Gold Run for the season.
 The libel filed against the steamer North Star, the property of the Pappe estate, has been compromised at Chenoa. J. w. Dillon is attor- ney for the administrator, c. B. Allen.
