TO BE Continued
The Human Plant.

Luther Burbank, the wizard who de-
VelopS marvellous flowers and fruits,
has been often jollied by the wags
about trying his hand on the human
kind, especially to take some of the
warps out Of species which seem born
crooked. At last Mr.. Burbank has
spoken on the subject to the effect that
birth is only the beginning Of develop
ment for the human plant and that the
environment of children has a force
for good or evil equal to that Of hered-
ity. ..-
What the soil is to the plant envi-
ronment is to the human mind, and
across the water Sir James Crichton
Browne, an English physician, has
spoken upon the dearth of ability in
the cultivated classes from which the
world is said to be suffering. DR..
Browne ascribes the evil complained
of to the artificial production of stu
pidity by placing mankind in unfit en-
vironment. He says that it is a mis-
take to assume that the city is the
place for Quickening the human intel
lect. The city hastens development,
and the result is precocity up to the
age Of thirteen or fourteen, when the
powers come to standstill. City life
dries up the reservoirs of strength in
the population and leaves a mass Of in
ferior quality. The history of our
country shows that the strongest in
tellects as well as the noblest and
most forcible characters have been de-
veloped in the rural districts.

Sally hated the Black Hills country. She
felt that it knew too much about her.
The neighborly inquisition had fallen
like blight on the family fortunes.
A vague migratory impulse was on her.
She wanted to 60 somewhere and be-
gin all over again. By dint of persist
ent nagging she persuaded her hus-
band to move to Wyoming, then in the
golden age of the cattle industry.
Judith was ten years old when her
father, his wife and their children
moved from Dakota-they were not so
particular about North and South Da-
kota In those days-to take up a claim
on sweetwater, Wyoming. Judith
gave scant promise of the beauty
that in later life became at once her
dover and her misfortune, that which
was as likely to bring Indebtedness as
happiness. In Wyoming she was des-
tined to find an old friend, Mrs. Atkins,
who, as the bride of the young lieu
tenant, had been present at the mar
riage of Sally Tumlin and Warren
Rodney and who had always felt Il
wholly unreasonable sense of guilt at
witnessing the ceremony and contrib
uting 4 lace handkerchief to the bride.
Her husband, now Major Atkins, was
stationed at Fort Washable, Wyoming.
Mrs. Atkins happening again on the
Rodney family and her husband hay
ing increased and multiplied his army
pay many times over by successful
venture in cattle, the scheme of Ju-
dith's convent education was put
through by the majors wife, who-had
kept her New England conscience, the
discomforts Of frontier posts notwith-
standing.
So Judith went to the nuns to school
and stayed with them till she was
eighteen. Mrs. Atkins would have
adopted her then, but Judith by this
time knew her family history in all it's
sordid ramifcations and felt that duty
called her to her brother, who had not
improved his unfortunate start in life,
though his stepmother did not spoil
him for the staying Of the rod

To Open Up Alaska.

The conditions of life in Alaska are
hard at best, and lack of transporta-
ton facilities adds to the drawbacks
which nature has placed upon that re-
gion. Railroads are needed at this
stage of development in the territory
to help people into the interior, to make
life endurable for those who get in
and for bringing out the wealth that
Is found there
Alaska has sent out during the last
eight years $55,O0O,O00 in gold to this
country, and it is believed that she has
rich resources in copper, tin and coal,
which must lie dormant for lack of
means to bring the products to market
Several projects for a railway have
been brought before the public from
time to time, and now the men behind
such an enterprise propose to ask the
United States to guarantee the inter-
est on $15,0OO,OOO for a railroad 500
miles in length. It is to be hoped, how
ever, that the construction Of rail
way into the coal and copper region of
the virgin territory does not depend
upon government backing.
The exploiting of Alaska's known
and supposed resources would add to
the wealth of the nation, but the peo-
pie are strongly inclined to let purely
commercial enterprises paddle their
own canoe.

conspicuous lack Of incredulitv. And
she put her hand inyoluntarily to her
frizzes.
This time she did not trust to the UNI
brella handle as a medium Of commu-
nication between the stage driver and
herself. Putting her hand through the
portfolio, she grasped Chugg's arm-the
bottle arm--with no uncertain grip.
"Why, Mr.. Chugg, this yere place is
getting to be regular summer resort.
Think Of two ladies trusting them
selves to your protection and travelling

"Pshaw now, ladies'! Why didn't you

After supper when the fat lady was
so busy talking 'goo-goo" language to
the baby as to be oblivious of every
thing else Mary Carmichael took the
opportunity to ask Johnnie if he knew
anything about Lost Trail. The name
OF her destination had come to sound
unpleasantly ominous in the ears of
the tired young traveller, and she fear
ed that her inquiry did not sound as
casual as she tried to have it. Nor was
Johnnie's candid reply reassuring.

ward the arid wastes which night was
making more desolate-''is a summer

Mary screwed her courage to a still
more desperate point and inquired if
Mr. OAK knew family named Yellett
living in Lost Trail.
"Never heard Of no family living
there excepting the bluff at family life

then she, too, talked "goo-goo'' to the
baby.
All that long and never to be forgot
ten night the stage lurched through the
darkness with Mary Carmichael the
solitary passenger. The fat lady had
warned Johnnie OAK that he was on no
account to replenish Chugg's flask if he
had the wherewithal for replenishment
on the premises. Johnnie, hurt to the
quick by the unjust suspicion that he
could fail so signally in his duty to
lady, not only refused to replenish the
flask, but threatened Chugg with con-
ditional vengeance in the event Of ac-

battle was the Smelling by the French
of bridge of ice over which an Aus
trian corps of 5000 men were march
ing. Napoleon ordered his cannon to
play upon the ice until nearly the
whole mass, with horses, guns and
wagons. was engulfed in the chilling
waters. The war demon in him was
aroused by what he considered the
perfdy of his enemies. He had said
to his soldiers the night before, "Vic-
tory must not be doubtful on this field"
He gained his point, and ''the sun of
Austerlitz" shone on his pathway for
decade.
The peace Of Pressburg, which follow
ed Austerlitz, changed the whole map
Of Europe. Austria was humbled, the
car marched home, and England was
left alone to cope with France Prime
Minister Pitt of England, the genius
of the coalition, died a month later
from the shock caused by this disas-
ter, and Fox, who succeeded him, open.
ed negotiations for peace. Napoleon
created Kingdoms, formed a confedera-
ton of the Rhine and alienated from
the German empire fourteen princes
and 100000 people.

Claims an Error.

Editor Tribune: AS member OF
the municipal League of Greeley,
desire to state that you were mis-
taken in your last editorial in regard
to the league neglecting the water
question and in lieu thereof devoting
their time to the matter of Sunday
base ball.
AS have attended all meetings OF
the league, l can state that the
water question has been the most
important matter considered by the
league, and that no action of any
kind has been taken by the league
in regard to base ball. Possibly in
dividual members of the league are
interested in knowing how candi-
dates stand on this question. and
such persons have perfect right to
inform themselves.
Inasmuch as you err in your ref
erence to the league in this matter
l trust you will correct the same
and put us down as actively work
ing in favor of new water supply.
Very respectfully,
B. u. SANBORN.
