Microbe of Badness.

~ ALDNESS is a malady intimately con-
X nectcd with a skin disease which is
very common, above all in youth. The
skin contains glands charged with Sc
perspiration and glands which give
forth the oily matter designed to lubricate
the skin. The cXaggerdtion of the func-
lions of these glands produces the malady
called seborrhea. Ii you press between the
nails a sufficiently diseased point of skin
you will force from all the sebaccous pores
several large ampullary cylinders with
black heads, which one calls blackheads,
together with innumerable vermiform fila
inents with yellow heads. Examine this
fatty hlament with the microscope, crush
the oily mass between two plates of glass,
wash with ether, color and look at 1t. In
the midst of the debris of epidernis. of
Slobules of fat, one will see millions Of
small bacllli extending in masses, in clouds
and in fine dust. They are legion, and are
the prolific mtcro-bacilli which are the
cause of seborrhea. The transmission of the
Dacilll and the resulting cOntagiOn are pro
duced by a thousand hazards. perhaps more
than ono thinks, by barber shops where
the brushes and combs pass a hundred
times from one head to the other without
the least real cleaning. The microbe, when
1t falls on propitious ground, develops and
m~ultiplies and gains by successive produc-

whore it establishes itself as victor in a
~vanquished city. From then on the infec-

ly. the gradual invasion of microbic col
onles extends, and after it badness.

Irving's Advice.
IN NE of the best of the myriad Irving
stories that have come to ight since
the death of the tragedian is told by
Joseph Hatton.
According to the %relator, a certain fash
ionable bore some slight resemblance ia
Irving and strove by every means tn
heighten the same. One evening he met
his model and after a lot of boresome talk
remarked with pride that his resemblance
to the actor often caused him much EN-
barrassment through being taken for the
other.
For a moment Irving eyed him, taking
in all the little points wherein the other
had copied, then turned away with his
f3mous grunt,
Huh! l should advise, huh! that you get

MAKES BIG COPPER DEAL
TT. D. Bradford Buys Fifty-four
 Claims on Knight Island.

The largest transfer of mining prop erty in .hc history of the sound Was consummatcd last week when TT. D. Bradford acquired title to a group of druy-rour copper claims on Knights island
 The group includes the holdings of thirteen original loeators, whose in- terc,t, have been consolidated for ad- yautageous handling, and covers a strip o. Knights island from Horrin bay on one side across to the Bay of Isles on the other, giving access to the property by tide water from both ends. On this ground there are twelve well defined veins cropping which runs from five to l25 feet in width. and they are so situated that they can be tapped by tunnel from Herrin bay or Bay of Isles in short distance.
 Nlr. Bradford goes east to make arrangements for machinery and im- medjateIy upon hisreturn development work will be started on the property on large scale.-Valdez Prospector.

ALASKA OFFERS NOVELTY
Denver Paper Notes that Territory Is
 Unique Field for Exploration.

What the interior of Africa was to Europe as an unknown and eXplorable land, that Alaska is to the United States. Most of the other states and territories of North America are so we'll known that little now is expected of them. Even Mexico, coming min ing country, is but a resurrection of an old and long-known country and an- cient civilization. But Alaska has all the charm of novelty, all the interest of exploration and that peculiar inter- est which attaches 10 the gradual de- vclopmeur. progress and building up of a pioneer state OF territory.
 GeoIogicaIly and geographically there is no other part of America like ir. Glance fora moment at that eN- traordinary shaped region. with its wonderful ragged coast line, relics of a once more extended continent, region torn 10 tatter. on the edges by glaciers and glacial action producing a coast line by its fiords and old glacial iSet extensions comparable to and resem- bling the northern coast of the Scandi- navian peninsula but far surpassing it in wildness of outline. It is region, too, in its upper extension, where the extreme of fire and water meet, where there are glaciers and ice sheets on one hand, and on the other, like the Ant arctic region with its Erebus and Ter ror. there are living, active volcanoes, and more than that, new ones lately formed and others likely to form and burst forth at any moment.
 Then consider the discoveries of min eral wealth, such as these of Nome and other excitements; and gradually as re- searches are being extended, Alaska appears to be teasure-house contain ing within its boundaries representa- tives of so many of those minerals so much desired elsewere but so rarely found, such as platinum, tin and other unusual and valuable ores. Coal, too, even anthracite, so much wanted not only in Alaska itself, but all down the notoriously coalless Pacific coast, is found here. There are good signs of oil, too; in fact what known mineral product is there that Alaska has not got, or that may not yet be discovered? Denver Mining Reporter.

FIND SCOTTYS CAMP
Prospectors Bring Account of Unmis
 takabIe Marks of His Presence.

] Rhyolite, Nev. - Walter Scott's camp has been discovered by prospec, tors twelve miles south of Willow creek
 ! There are two caves. not far apart, reached by a precipitous ascept of 200 1 feet from the bottom of a canyon. ] They were vacant. but the evidences of Scott's former occupancy were un- mistakable. The most convincing feature was his diary. This, in Scot tvs own handwriting and picturesque English, recorded his goings and com ings, with entries of the fabulous finds he had made.
 They read like this: "Apprel l7th Take out $ll7OOO in gold today, sent away for $500 worth of whisky and seegars.'
 "Aggest 9th-Got $5O,OOO. Whisky and seegars ordered"
 A New York newspaper man who had been in Greenwater for some time, looking up the copper situation, paid the prospectors who discovered the diary $lO,OOO for the privilege of using it for hls paper.

PORTLAND SAILS SOUTH
Steamer Arrives in Seward Fourteen
 Days Out of Seattle.

Steamer Portland arrived in Seward Sunday at 6 p. m., just fourteen days out of Seattle, and sailed for Seldovia and Kodiak at 10 p. m. Her delay was caused by heavy weather in the inside passage which made it danger ous to proceed rapidly.
 The Portland brought about sixty tons of general freight to Seward, and fifteen passengers.
 The Portland returned from the westward Thursday afternoon at o'clock and sailed for Seattle at 3. She met some rough weather on her westward journey and was gone nearly four days because of it. She usually gets back in three.
