Confirm Story OF New Island.

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. S,-The
report that volcanic island had been
formed in Bering Sea received last
March, is confirmed by L. L. Bales,
an Alaskan hunter and trapper, and
by officers of the steamer, Orizaba.
These men were told of the island by
officers of the United States revenue
cutter Perry, who are reported to have
visited it. The island is said to be
still discharging streams of lava.
Mr.. Bales stated that he went close
to the island in sealing schooner. He
estimated its height at 900 feet and
length at about three miles.
1.-THE island has come from the
depths of the sea since last spring, !"
said Mr.. Bales. Il hardly credited the
report when / first heard Of it, but
went close to the place shortly after
ward in sealing schooner. There
were streams of lava still running
down into the sea from the crater OF
one Of the craters. The sea is almost
covered with thousands Of dead fish.
They have been killed by the heat from
the lava The island is rugged and
about 900 feet high, or possibly a little
more. 1t is almost enveloped in clouds
of steam and some smoke. 1t lies about
fifty miles west of Dutch Harbor, al
most directly between the Bogosloi
Islands -

FINGERS MASHED
IN GRIST MILL.

Capt. 7. S. Bartlett got the first
and second fingers of his left hand
caught in the grist mill at the Sequat
chic Handle Works Friday afternoon,
and the forefnger was so severely
mashed that it was hanging by shred
of flesh and was at once removed The
second finger was badly lacerated but
careful treatment by DR.. Copeland,
who was summoned from Jasper, saved
it although it seemed as il amputation
would be necessary. Capt. Bartlett is
rs years old and his friends were
shocked to learn of his injury. He
bore his sufferings with Spartan-like
fortitude, He was endeavoring to
start some corn which had lodged in a
chute when the accident occurred.

UNCLE GID'S LETTER.

SO many fine things have been said
about women in the last few years it
has set me to thinking when is wom-
an at her best and what has been her
best work. To be useful should be her
highest aim and ambition. A useful
woman must be pure. Inward impuri-
ty will work outward in spite of all
their attempts to conceal il and it will
taint their influence for good.
She must be strong of will, firm, in
dustrious and full of energy and vim.
Cheerfulness has always been one of
the great characteristics of pure wo-
man. She must have tact and fine
sense of neatnes3 if she would inspire
others and get the best out of them. A
clever tact, sisters, is the results Of the
kindness of your heart which produces
sympathy. Mothers, you must teach
your girls the dignity and Importance
of domestic work, which, fear very
much, some despise, from the looks of
things around some homes. A sloven-
ly woman in the home will be SLOW
en- in the household of God-I mean
the church. But enough on this sub
ject.
My wife has quilt her mother
made when she was seventeen years
old. She died eleven years ago at the
age Of seventy two, which makes the
quilt sixty-six years old. The quilt is
of the sunhower pattern and not a
break is in it and it looks like a new
quilt. She also has her mothers we'd
ding dress, cut and made after the fas-
hion of that day, and made on the
peek-a-boo STYLE Also pair of gold
ear bobs, made when workmen were
honest. / wonder how many of the
News readers have in their possession
souvenirs of their parents and grand
parents. My wife has tried to teach
her three daughters economy, and tC
be saving and careful, and they are
fine neat housekeepers, which please'
me very much.
