French Leave.

The origin of the phrase French leave" is traced back to a custom be- gun in France and initiated in Eng land, common enough In the eight eenth century, of going away from a social gathering without taking formal leave of host and hostess.
 This is abundantly clear from two extracts written in 1775, The first is from Chesterhelds Principles of Po- lIteness:" "As the taking what is call cd a French leave was introduced that on one persons leaving the company the rest may not be disturbed, looking at your watch does what that piece of politeness was designed to prevent"
 So also Jekyll; French edquettes are precise to a degree. l will allow that taking French leave Is easy and natural; but, on the contrary, there Is more formality in entering one assem- bly, here than in taking the round of routs for a whole winter in London"
 As a disclaimer to this derivation the French, on their part, have the phrase, "se retirer rAnglaiSe"-"to take Eng, fish Ieave"-with the same significance,

Many Scotch clans have several tar tans, such as a common tartan, a hunt ing tartan and a full dress tartan, Ear. ly in the day highlander Of position dons a kilt Of plain tartan, and in the evening for dinner he puts on bis full dress tartan, with sporrau and richly jeweled dirk. For example, the Mac pherson dress tartan is black and white, with a narrow red line, and the hunting Macpherson is small blue and black and rcd check. The Stuarts have three tartans, and the design ot their hunting tartan in dark blue apd green is particularly fine. Each clan has its own badge. The Duff men wear holly, the Gordons an ivy leaf, the Stuarts an oak leaf, and SO on.

The FIr., English Slave Trader.

Sir John Hawkins was the first Eng fish slave trader He formed com pany composed of the leading men of London and fitted out three small ships which sailed in l562. Later Queen Elizabeth lent Hawkins Jesus large ship of her own of 7OO tons, snd took shares in the second African company. She not only equipped the ship, but put 100 soldiers on board 10 provide for contingencies, On the second voyage Hawkins bought 400 negroes and had a narrow escape from losing them ow ing to the lack Of water when he was near the equator. But, as he piously recorded In his log, The Almighty God would not suffer his elect to perish and sent breeze which carried them safe to Dominica" This was the beginning of the slave trade, which lasted for more than two centuries before 1t was finally suppressed.

A TronbIesorns Ant.

In the state of Colombia there Is Q large ant (Atta cephalotes) which causes a great deal of injury 10 planta' tons. It attacks and carries on indis' criminately all kinds of foliage, and nc sort of vegetation seems to come amiss to 1t. The quantity Of foliage carried o1 by these ants Is immense. A natu' ralist recently investigated the uses to which the ants put this mass of vege- table matter, and he ascertained that they employ it to make hotbeds upon which their eggs are deposited to be matched by the heat produced by the fermentation of the leaves. The ants dc not eat these portions for food, and the larva are fed upon carefully selected diet. Once the brood Is hatched the ants clear away the hotbed, carrying out Of their nest all the decomposcd vegetable matter. This is thrown out In heaps apart, and in the large ant hills these heaps will contain bushels and upward

when the expense and time of going from one to the other are concerned than were Spokane and Olympia in 1880 aThe cost of a territorial govern ment in this district need not be more expensive to the people than the bur deus they are bearing now. It could be much less. If the +Ooo poor immi- grants in the Dakotas or Washington, without marx cts or means of transpor- tation to markets, could maintain terri torial governments under the condi' tious that obtained in them when they were first organized certainly the 5000 or 6O,OOO prosperous, producing people of Alaska are prepared for the so-called burden.
 That the people of Alaska want ter ri,orial government is demonstrated by the fact that every political convention thas has been held in the distr jet in the last five years has demanded it. It is favored by nearly sll the chambers of commerce and at all meetings of miners and others.

ONLY ONE THING FOR ALASKA

as to legislation for Alaska at which the senators and representatives in couSrss who will be here tomorrow can arrive. That is the people of this district should be provided with the means of selt-goveri ment-
 They will come here recognizing that s speople have a natural right to make and execute their own laws. They would DO, be Americans if they enter ,aiued other ideas of public right and public policy. Therefore the thing they will consider will doubtless be the capacity of the people for self government, the prsctibility of self government in this district and the de sIres of the people.
 The capacity of the people of Alaska mentally, morally and financially for ,eltSovernment is shown best by their record in the district. They do more business per capita than is done in any other political division of the United States. Last year they exported to the the states of the Union the .'roducts ot labor, in gold, fish, furs and other items, to the value Of $2l 100000. They furnished a market for goods, wares and merchandise to the value ot sl2,- 5OO,OO. They have established towns up and down the coasts and along the Yukon waterways whi h would do credit to old commonvealths. They have good schools iu their incorporated towns, of which their are about a dozen in ,he district, supported by local rev euues. They have reimbursed the fed erAl treasury for the cost of govern ment in their distrsct for the last half dozen years and have donated it mil lion dollars in ad iition. They are the most prosperous people in the nation. They have further shown their caPac- ity for self.government in the manner iu which they have handled the affairs of their munieii a'ities.
 It has been said that the unusual con- ditious iu Alaska make selt-govern- ment impracticable. Nothing could be more absurd The only practical legislature is that wherein there are rc- preseutattves of all ,ections of a coun- try for which 1t legislates and in which all the interests involved are represen- ted. The fact that conditions are dtt- iereut here from those obtaining else where makes this principle when ap- piled to Alaska axiomstic. What would the electors of Illinois think of the suggestion ot leaving the legisla- tiou ou their local matters to commit tee of statesmen from Ohio, Texas and Maine? In Illinois conditions are set tied as much as they are in other states, yet they demSLd that legislators Of their own selection composed of resi- dents of their own state meet every two years to adjust their laws to the chang ing conditions. The need for leGtsla- ture of experienced pen in a country where conditions change as rapidly as they do in Alaska is greater than it is in Illinois.
 The situation in Alaska Is better for the establishment of a territorial gov eruuent than it was iu any territory, save only Oklahoma, that ever has beeG created by United States congress, The district is large, it is true, but the means of communication are such that the various sections of 1t are in closer touch with each other than has been the case with other territories. Nome and Ketchikan are nearer each other,

FAMOUS CASTLE
GOING TO RUIN
French Demand Restoration
of Fontainebleau.
NEGLECTED BY GOVERNMENT
Thought, However, That the Grand
Old Building Is Now Beyond
All Repair

PARIS. Sept. - Many patriotic
Frenchmen are very indignant at tho
governments neglect to take care OF the
many buildings which stand as mouu-
Inents of Frances former grandeur. and
a strong demand is now being made
that the beautiful Palace of Fontaine-
bleau be thoroughly repaired
The castle. which is situated in mag
nificent forest some distance from this
city. is already so far gone that many
fear it viii be impossible TO save it
And still this castle is one of the most
interesting historic relics in all France.
Historic Incident.
AS far back as 99S. Robert the Pious,
son of Hugo Capet. built a hunting
lodge at Fontainebleau, but the real
creator of the palace which now stands
was Louis VII. who. in 1859, started TO
build the main part of it
1t was the favorite resort of many OF
Frances foremost rulers = Frances l.
Henry ". Louis XIV preferring 1t TO all
others. as did also the great Napoleon
In the Castle of Fontainebieau lived the
beautiful Mime de Montespan and the
licentious Nine DuBarry, and here Pope
Plus VII was held a captive by Napo-
icon.
The conce-dat between church and
state was signed in this castle on Jann-
airy .. 1913. and a year. later the great
Emperor signed his resignation in the
same room, and in the courtyard he
bid farewell to his faithful guard. one
of the most soul-stirring scenes in
French history
The third republic has not only done
nothing TO keep the palace in repair.
but has ever robbed it OF some os its
most valuable treasures.
Relics Carried Away.
Even during the time Of the second
empire 3Go. 600 francs were spent annually
to keep the palace in repair. but since
1871 absolutely nothing has been done
to preserve it. Priceless gobelins have
been cut TO pieces. and the furniture
has nearly all been carried away and
placed in the Louvre the PaIais Elysees
and the Palace OF the Legion of Honor.
Experts estimate that it VIII cost
about q million francs to nut the Ia
nous castle in good shape. and the
Society of French Patriots will appeal
TO the chamber TO make an appropria-
ton Of this amount
