earned especial prominence through

bravery in the Reno battle. Il In the
fall Of 1902 he left his home at Bis

"a New Source of Wealth ia the Far

Stock raising is becoming an import
ant Alaskan industry, and within a
very few years it is probable that
regular shipments Of cattle for export
will be made. The extensive areas Of
rich groWths pf grass and the absence
of storms in the winter make many
sections of the country ideal places for
ranching. The winters of Alaska
are more hospitable than those of the
great plains Of Wyoming, Montana and
some parts Of Nevada, and IN the dead
of winter horses and cattle can be
worked without fear Of being frozen,
The temperature frequently is very
cold, but there are no storms.
Several large stock growers Of
Washington state are planning to con.
vert the Aleutian islands into vast cat.
tie and sheep ranges. which will sur.

THE LOVE OF WOMEN.
As Much Of a Mystery as the Stars
That Shine.

Who shall fathom woman's
heart or measure the depths of her
love? She is angelic in her charity
and divine in her forgiveness
where man is concerned. Recent
ly, says the Nashville American.
in Chicago woman appeared at
the city Jail with a basket of del
icacies, which she requested
should be sent to one of the pris-
oners. One of her arms was in
sling, for it had been broken by a
blow from a club. Her head was
encircled by a bandage which cov-
cred one eye which had been
bruised by a fist. There were
many cOntusi0ns on her body, she
was suffering great pain and was
hardly able to walk by reason OF
the cruel beating she had received.
But in spite of all this she had pre-
pared the basket of dainty edibleJ
and brought it from her home i'll
the suburbs to the Jail for her hus'
band-the brute who had beaten
her so cruelty. She was distressed
at the thought that he had moth
ing to eat but the coarse prison
fare, therefore she prepared for
him those things she knew he
would like.
He was her husband and all the
cruel and brutal treatment she
had received from him had no,
slain in her heart the love he had
there in the happy,
hopeful days that a woman never
forgets. He was a brute, Of
course, and she-well, many would
say she was very foolish. Perhaps
80; who shall say? Being some
thing Of a man and therefore some
thing Of a brute, we.do not feel
competent to act as a juror in such
i case as this. The merits and re-
inements oft are beyond us-as
much of a mystery as that of the
stars which illumine the night.

ONE-LEGGED MEN.
Are Nor, Numerous Than Supposed
in ALI Walks of Life.

in ALI Walks of Life.
"Have you ever thought about
the one-legged man, how numer.
Gus he is, what he does for liveli-
hood?" asked an Observant man
of Philadelphia Bulletin Repost-
er. "Well, | suppose You k2ve
without paying much atfer1ten to
what you were thinkirz about.
You will find many zen who are
thus afflicted quite as well off in
the affairs of the world as men
who still retain both their lower
limbs. Many of the brave soldiers
who took part in the little skir.
mish of the '60s left the fighting
with one leg, or they were wound.
ed in such way that they lost the
limb afterward because amputa.
ton became necessary. Frequent
ly this condition confronted the
wounded soldier many years after
the war. So there are many one
legged men who are prominent in
all the professions and in all the
business affairs of the country.
"But was thinking of another
class of men, men who are not, for
one reason and another, fitted for
the more responsible positions in
life, the class of men who perforce
fall into the most convenient
grooves for the aims and respon-
sibilities which beset them. He
is bootblack now and then, and
we find him lounging on the corner,
waiting for some good customer
who will give him the usual allow
ance for Il shine. Sometimes we
will find him at other things which
do not require too much leg work.
as the saying goes. But had in
mind IL still more curious fact in
connection with the calling of the
One-legged man. Did you know
that fully 80 per cent. of the rail-
road fiagmen in the United States
are One-legged men? Did youknow
that fully 80 per cent. of the men
who sweep out the grooves, and
who grease them, at the curves on
street railway lines are one-legged
men? 1t is a fact, whether you
know it or not, and little closer
observation will convince you of it.
So you find the one-legged man at
crossing of the roads, and your
life is often in his hands. If he
maps he may Whit your candle out.
Or if he should give false signal
for some reason something might
happen to a whole trainload OfpeO-
pit. So true is it that the one leg
ged man is the fagman that in all
the plays where it has been neces-
sary to introduce him the fiagman
is one-legged. The verdict of the
stage is not always good, but in
this respect / am inclined to think
that no mistake has been made.
So, after all, the one-legged mau
plays an important and responsi.
