senntor ATorean,s Vitality.

One of the most wonderful men in the United States Senate Is John T. of Alabama. A4e is eighty-on years old, and two years from this time he will complete thirty years service in the Senate. Dur ing the recent short session he spoke for more than four hours for two sue cessive days. The physical effort of speaking for four hours on one day is more than many senators care to attempt. On every foreign subject he knows all there is to know and has the knowledge at command without reference books or documents. No other man knows so much about the Isthmian canal. Once someone asked how long he could really talk. Tt de- pends upon the subject" he replied. If it were matter that I thoroughly un- derstand I could talk for two or three days; If 1t were a matter I knew nothing about I could talk for two or three weeks"

Neatness Is one of the most attract i've of feminine qualities to man. ft is also one of the rarest. Early and persistent must be the training which carries the girl into womanhood with her bump of neatness" well developed. Unless inherently fastidious during school days, she Is liable to drift into careless habits which she never out, grows. One girl may have a trick of leaving shoes about her room. As a mere tot she was permitted to do this and as she grew older the untidy cts- tom was never abandoned. for the sim. pie reason that she herself did not no- tice anything unusual about it and probably nobody else took the trouble to correct her.

MAIL ON THE WAY
Sixteen Hundred Pounds Started From Eagle
 Oct. IA.

Sixteen hundred pounds of mail was started in d small boat from Eagle Oct. II. Of course there is no means of knowing what progress it has made, but there is hope it may reach Rampant within the next seven days. It is be- lieved this batch will contain registered matter, the first to arrive since steam boat service suspended. The eleven hundred pounds landed here by Paul Schultz Oct r. contained no registered mail.
 Mir. schultz departed with up-river mail Oct. l9. He followed the beach with dogs, and was instructed to con tinue until he met the down-river mail. He expected not to have to go beyond Fort Yukon.
 John Palm is to leave Panama with up- river mail Nov. I. It is very doubtful if the down-bound mail will reach there before his departure.
 It is said that this fall carriers are in- structed to incur no avoidable risk but at the same time it is believed they will avoid all unnecessary delay.

Not Expected that Ice Will Be Running Till
 Nov. 1.
PAST OPENINGS AND CLNSINGS

For two weeks ice has been running in the Yukon in steadily increj sing volume and narrowing runway The closing of the river is near at h/nd.
 It might come in two days and it might hold open for four, and none ex- pect by any manner of means to see the ice moving as late as Nov. l.
 This will rate as an early freezeup, al though at this time in 1903 the ice had stopped, the date being Oct. Fl. In 1898 it stopped Oct. ?. Other years it has continued to run till in November.
 Following is the opening and closing dates for the past seven years:
 lS9S-Opened May P; closed Oct. P.
 lS99-Opened May l9; closed Nov. 6.
 190O-Opened May l5; closed Nov. 3.
 19Ol-Opened May 24; closed Nov. $.
 l9O2-Opened May 2l; closed Nov. 9.
 19O3-Opened May l9; closed Oct. 24
 1904-Opened May II :; closed Nov. H.. This year ice moved May Is. It will be noted that in 1901 there was exactly six months before the opening and the closing, while the year before there was only five months and five days between the two dates, showing that the date of opening gives no indication of the time of close.
 Taking five months and fifteen days as about the average time between the opening and closing, and deducting say, twenty days of time in which more or less ice will be running in the river, We may consider ourselves fairly lucky in years when we have five months with no ice in the river. And we may count it reasonably certain that We will have six months of safe footing before the ice becomes rotten in 1906.

The Novel Experience of a Prospector---Thought
 He Was Shot.
STARTED OUT ON A MAN HUNT

It seldom falls to the lot of pros pector to undergo a more startling eXpe- rience than what befel D. L. Fancher over on the Hootlanana short time ago.
 He was trudging along with bag of shavings on his back, when there was Hghtning-like flash, followed, perhaps, by a short period of unconsciousness. As his scattered senses returned he felt a dull pain in the breast, accompanied by a sensation of nausea.
 Some reckless hunter, he thought, had him the victim of rife ball.
 What do you mean?" he yelled, as he looked about for the guilty one.
 Receiving no answer, he concluded his assailant was hiding. ''Come out like man." he called, instead of hiding there in the brush like the internal cow ard that you are" But no one appeared.
 Getting madder and madder, Mr. Fancher hustled to his cabin short way off and got his 30-30 rife. He pro posed to camp on that villains trail.
 Returning to the place where he had baen stricken he saw his ppestem lying in little hollow in the snow. Come to think, he was smoking when he was shot He ran his hand under his vest but felt no blood. He probed into divers little holes in the snow and brought out fragments of his pipe.
 Further investigation made everything clear He had carried his pipe in pockit with lot of .22 cartridges. One nestled snugly at the bottom when the pipe was filled.
 That dull hurting in the breast lin- gered some time after the mystery was explained.

TO GO SECOND TIME
For Geological Surveyors Abandoned Outfit and
 Horses.

C. F. W. Cassidy expects to set out in d few days on a second trip in an at tempt to bring in part of the aban- doned outfit of the geological survey party, and will probably be successful this time. Only the instruments and specimens will be brought out. Camp equipage and all articles that may be readily replaced will be left where they are.
 Sept g Mr. Cassidy left Fort Hamlin and spent nine days in locating the cache and looking out a suitable route for its removal. The condition of the snow was such at that time that it was useless to try to move it. The cache is located at the head of Fish creek, a trib- utary of Mike Hess river. MT. Cassidy found four abandoned horses there. and put them into heavily timbered place, where he believes they can get grass enough to keep them alive. He will take in feed on dog sleds, and if he gets them out he will be four horses ahead
 The geological survey party included half dozen men under D. C. Wither- spoon. They had fifteen horses, eleven of which became exhausted and were killed.
 The party started from Circle early in the summer and worked around the headwaters of Beaver and Mike Hess rivers. They expected tn finish at Fort IIamlin. Aug. 22 snow began tn fall and gradually became deeper till pr"g- re-s was very difficult. The horses could not h"Id up under the heavy burdens
 sept. 6 everything Was abandoned. With canvas bags drawn over their feet and tied around their leg-, the men plowed through the snow and finally reached Fort iIamlin Sept. ls. There they dishansled.
