FRANKLIN. La, SATURDAY, JULY ?, 1904

to the Great Lakes, there is naturally
a great diversity of climate. The Pc
culiar modifying influence along the
whole southern coast for 1000 miles
is the Japanese current, which tenn
pers this region as it does California,
Washington and British Columbia.
Over vast areas of the interior the
summer is warm and delightful, and
vegetation grows with an almost semi
tropical luxuriance. There are mil
lions of birds. The winter in the in
terror is cold, clear and exhilaratin2
much the same as in Dakota and Man
itOba.
What now is most urgently needed
is railroads in all parts OF Alaska
They are indispensable, and would
prove immensely profitable enterpris
es. It is strange that capital shou!C
be timid about constructing these
lines, considering that every mile tha'
has thus far been built has more thar
paid for itself within a year

A missionary who has just return
ed from Alaska recently told an anus
ing story of how an Indian medicine
mans" curse affected two Americans.
They were prospectcrs coming
down the Stykeen River" he said.
ION the morning of the day on which
they expected to reach Fort Wrangle
they camped on sand spit near the
camp of an Indian tribe.
Zone of the tribes medicine men
came down and asked for seat in
the canoe as far as Wrangle. The
white men refused. saying that the
canoe was too small. The Indian in
sisted, and there was warm arsu-
ment. The two whites finally showed
of into midstream, leaving the In
dian on the bank.
"'You never come shore again, he
shouted.
THE white men laughed, and pad
died on. Toward evening they reach

In the Shadow Lands

Lucinaa's life's a peaceful one. apart
from sentiment:
No prattIing voices come to mar her
quiet and content:
No tiny feet romp up ana down. no eager
dmpled hands
Are clutching at her fingers where she
sits in shadow lands.
In shadow lands she sits alone, there in
her quiet room
Nav. not alone for faces come before her
in the gloom,
And on her hand she feels a palm, she
hears whisper low
A visitor comes back again from out the
long ago.
She stands beside the garden gate where
bushing roses cling,
She ustens to the murmur of the brooks
soft caroling:
But sweeter than all other sounds rapt
voice whispers low

Three in Chinese.

Religious superstition asserts itself
in Chinese architecture, and the uni
yersal sacredness of the numerals
three and nine is shown in the ar,
rangement of temple doors. There is
a triple gateway to each OF the halls
of the Imperial Palace, and the same
order prevails at the Ming tombs, and
the sacred person of the emperor
when he was in his Pekin home could
only be approached, even by the high,
est officials, after three times three
prostrations. The Temple of Heaven
has a triple roof, triple marble
staircase, and all it's mystic symbol
ism points either to three or its mul'
tiples.

of the bank, and the canoe seemed to
stick fast The water was still five
feet deep. so the two men piled their
paddles desperately. Still TIE c2Eoe

"Suddcnly they ceased padding.

Manx Taxes.

In the matter of taxation the Isle
of Man is unique. There is no income
tax and no succession duties charge
able against the estates of deceased
persons; roads are manipulated by
the revenue for two sources-a small
tax upon every wheel and shod hoof
and levy upon every male inhabi
tant, who must give days work on
the road or its equivalent in cash
There are not stamp duties on re
ceipts, checks, promisory notes, ETC.;
in fact, stamps are used only for post
age. The island has no pawnshops.

GARDENS OF THE ALCAZAR.
One of Their Greatest Charms Is the
Apparent Lack of Cultivation.

Apparent Lack Of Cultivation.
The garden OF the Alcazar is one
garden composed Of several, each
opening into the other by steps de
scending from terrace or through
arches in marble or living green.
All the gardens are surrounded witi
wonderful hedges of myrtle, juniper
or box. If the gardens of the Alcazar
should be stripped Of all but their
hedges, palm trees and magnollas
they would still be most wonderful.
In some places walls about eight feet
in height separate the gardens, and
against these walls are trained orange
and peach trees, with a tangle OF Jas
samine and roses climbing among
them as they will. In fact, the flow
ers grow in such careless and natural
profusion and there is seemingly SO
little cultivation that one might al
most think the hoe of the gardener
had not visited the place for a hum
dred years. This very carelessness
was one of the greatest charms OF the
place and added to the effect OF age
that clung to everything. Modern
gardeners would stand aghast at such
apparent neglect
recognized that the very lack OF
modern care was artistic and suitable
and yet wondered, if the place were
mine. whether / could forbear the
use OF shears, trowel and hoe. The
hedges were trimmed. These, with
some orange trees growing in solid
mass of gree along some fifty feet OF
palace wall and reaching to the very
roof, alone bore signs of the garden
er's shears.
The flower beds were Of intricate
shapes, filed with tangled mass OF
flowers and always surrounded with
box. And such box! My heart sank
within me when l thought of the box
in my garden at home, where not
even a hundred mild winters and a
hundred rainy summers could give
growth like the smallest Of that at
the Alcazar
The bouquet that is considered IN
Seville as a model Of beauty and ele-
gance was to our eyes a most hideous
thing. In shape like pyramid, about
fourteen inches high, it was formed
by fastening a magnolia bud to the
TOP Of a smooth, round stick and then
winding flowers tightly around the
stick, each succeeding row becoming
larger. so that at the bottom the bou-
quet was probably two feet around. 1t
was frequent sight to see two men
carrying a pole between them with
from six to a dozen Of these bouquets
swinging, heads down, from the pole.

His voice is like the murmur of the sum-
mer breeze that's sweet
With perfume Of the roses there in riot at
her feet:
He's bending DER the garden gate. his
face is all aglow-
Until she gently lifts her head and coyly
whispers No
The freight is cleaning there along the
polished floor
Lucinda's dreaming Of those days. MIS-
taken days Of yore.
Here all Is quietness and ease, peace
reigns here all content,
A spinster's heaven where she dreams OF
lfe's old sentiment.
A step falls soft upon the porch. tap
falls on her ears;
Both come to her as echoes come from
out the vanished years.
Then swift away the shadows glide, tho
room Is all aglow-
A visitor has come again from out the
long ago.
