Alaska's Fine Iumbar

Investigation by northwestern lu,n-
berIlen shows that in future years the
forests Of Alaska will yield bounti-
full supply of lumber. The matter has
been investigated with a view to as
certaining where the country's lumber
supply will come from when the tim
Der of the Pacific northwest becomes
closely cut ike the forests of Lake
Superior.
Experts report that in no country
can numbering be carried on more
easily than in Alaska This is be-
cause Alaskan forests, for the most
part, are ON islands and the mainlands
close to water. More important than
this is the quality of lumber which
will some day be brought from Alaska.
Alaska cedar as especially valuable
and would bring $75 per 1000 feet now
if it could be manufactured and
shipped. The government embargo
prevents the shipment of timber from
Alaska, but Puget sound limbermen
are certain that great lumber indus
try will some time exist among the
fiords of southeastern Alaska

Battery Firing the Shot Was of an Aristo-
cratic Corps.

Battery Firing the Shot Was of an Aristo-
cratic Corps.
1t is stated in official circles that
the grape was fired from one Of the
guns of the Seventeeth battery of the
First horse artillery of the Guard, the
most aristocratic cops in the Russian
army. 1t seems that at gun practice
on Tuesday loaded shell was mad
vertently left in the gun.
The missiles went high. entering the
windows of the row of salons along
the water front, from which the en-
press. the ladies of the court, members
of the diplomatic corps, including Am
bassadOr Mccormick, \Secretary Eddy
and Second Secretary Bliss, and all
the high dignitaries Of the state, army
and navy were witnessing the glitter
ing spectacle below. The bullets passed
over the heads of all present, striking
the opposite wall and gathering down
on the floor of the white salon. Had
the gun been aimed a little lower the
charge of grape might have wiped out
the whole Romanoff dynasty.
The first impression of those who
heard the crash was that it was caused
by falling crystals from the glass
chandeliers, as the result of the con-
cussion from the booming guns. Ev-
erybody had been laboring under a
nervous strain because of the strike
situation, and when the truth was real
lied the windows were vacated and
the greatest excitement reigned with
in the palace. An officials says that
the bullets had very low velocity,
none Of them entering the wall where
they struck = just dropping to the
floor The gun firing the shoot was
not more than 500 yards from the pal
ace.
'sIf this was deliberate plot said
an officer especially charged with safe
guarding the person of his majesty,
sit was very ingenious. We have been
prepared for an anarchist attempt in
any form we could conceive, but of an
attempt to XII the emperor with one
of his own guns under the guise OF
firing a salute no one ever dreamed
It is departure against repetition
of which we must take precautions. Il
gunners of the emperor's picked guard
can be enlisted in such n das-ardly
conspiracy serious possibilities are pre-
sented."

On one occasion a great public din
ner was given to Isaac Hull by the
town of Boston, and he was asked to
SIT for his picture to Gilbert Stuart.
the celebrated artist. who was great
braggart. When Hull visited his
studio Stuart, according to the Indian
apolis News. took great delight in en-
tertaining him with anecdotes of his
English success. stories of the marquis
of this and the baroness of that, which
showed how elegant was the society
to which he had been accustomed. Un-
fortunately. in the midst of this
grandeur. Mrs. Stuart. who did not
know there was sitter, came in from
the Kitchen. with apron on and her
head tied up with some handkerchiefs,
and cried out: "Do you mean to have
that leg of mutton boiled of roasted?''
to which Stuart replied, with great
presence of mind: ASK your mis-
tress.'-Denver Republican.
