A widely known mining man operating in Sonora. who will be recognized under the appelation of Major Tucson," tells this story at his own expense:
 He dreamed he had died, and proceeded straightway to the "pearly gates, where he found St. Peter challenging his right to enter. Said the fisherman: "Who are you?
 T am Major Tucson"
 From where2n
 From Sonora?n
 What's you calling?p
 II am miner?n
 All right: pass in.
 The major went in and was shown along to commanding height, overlooking and close to the gate. After n short time an- other well known Sonora mining man, Doctor John McGraw, pre-. sented himself at the gate aIsd ask ed admitance, when Major Tucson overheard the following colloquv between the new applicant and st. Peter:
 "Who are you?n
 Doctor John McGraw.
 Whence come you?"
 Sonora"
 What's your business?"
 "I am miner"
 That don't go. You can't come in"
 But there's Major Tucson in there: you let him in; and he's a miner"

Every time during the past six years that a passenger steamer on the North Pacific coast has been in such difficulty that the debarka-ion of the passengers was necessary scandaIous reports of the lite-saving gear have been circulated. In one instance the boats were so rot ten that they vonld not hold together and variously in succeeding ca,asro- phies the Hie-preserers were bogus mere shaus stuGed with s,raw-there were no oars for the boats, the boats were suu-cracked and leaky. At every such experience reforms in these de 6eiencies have been predicted without ever coming Co pass. The inspection officers, who are paid to investigate these matters, should be made to share the responsibility of negligent steam ship companies, and the officials who rank these officers should be held ac- counta5le for the chronic iaatendon Co duty of their suborllua,es It is sail cha, these ita-Ereserv.ug re-a.~- ,ions are enforced 0o the Atlantic coas, There is DO reason why this c5as, should be maintained as @ kinder garten for incour lent cr -ralirg .n- spectors.

HAY CALL A TURN.

If the men arrested for footing C. B. Boschart's cabin are guilty, as it would seem, their arrest and trial may possi- bly, lead Co the breaking up of the gang that have committed so many depreda- tious in Skagway, It has for three years past been the invaria5le rule that every tenement not continuously inhab- tied has been footed of contents vary ing from easy movab.es Co stoves. In many instances doors, windows and even main portions of buildings have been moved away.
 For all this robbery and vandalism DO arrests have been made, though these outrages have been of monotonous and constant recurrence. Itis to be hoped that the footing of MT. Boschart's cabin may call turn that will gain better security to property in Skagway.
