Those of Alaska Call for Schools to
Make Them Like White
Man,

The craving of the Alaskan Indians
for education is almost pitiable, says
the Southern Workman. Ask them
what they need, and the answer is the
same:
Schools for the children, so that
they may become smart like the white
man"
They are very affectionate people to
their children; every benefit Is for the
child. The older people fully realize
the fact that they represent the past
They have always been producers, and
their faith in themselves is half OF
the struggle that lies before them. To
this end they should be provided with
day schools in all of the villages of a
hundred or more adults.
In some sections where the families
are distributed over large area Of
country and in the case Of the children
OF parents unable to provide for their
support, and again where orphans may
be- enslaved by distant relatives, board
ing schools or homes are equally neces-
sary.

BITE OF THE RATTLESNAkE,

The first experience was when was a
child and the bite of the reptile came
near killing me. The second time I
suffered intense pain, but owing to the
prompt application of remedies my
life was not endangered.
Now, as l have had more than nv
fair quota of contact with snakes, no
longer have any dread of a third ex-
perience, but to this day, whenever I
encounter one by accident, say in
circus or in ZOO, the mere sight of
it occasions me feeling that is al
most 1ndescribable-a sensation of
acute pain throughout my entire be-

Venezuelan President Says He Fears
Scheme to Control South Amer
lean Republics.

New York, June 26.-Advices from
Caracas say that Venezuela will not
be represented at the Pan-American
congress at Rio. The reason given,
semiomcially, is that Gen. Cipriano
Castro, whose resignation" from the
presidency has not been accepted, and
who will return to office July 5, fears
that the United States seeks to use
the congress for the purpose of obtain
ing control over the South American
republics. One of the Castro newspa-

venezuela will not take part in the
Pan-American congress at Rio because
there is no disposition on her part to
serve as the instrument of the United
States in the latter's sinister designs
against the weak republics of South
America"

small bills, says the Washington Star.
These he counted out one by one,

long pieces of stamped paper. One
OF the notes was somewhat worn by
age and usage, and when his fingers
gripped 1t, it yielded and was torn in
two. The clerk calmly placed the
torn bill on the little pile of money,
and showed it toward the purchaser
with the customary stereotyped "thank
you"
The purchaser with equal prompti

the pile, tossed them back to the
clerk, saying shortly, mend it your

"Of the many curious habits that
people who handle and change money

was leaving the store, II think the
habit some cashiers and clerks in
dulge in of swapping and pulling bills
in making change is the most aggra-
waiting. And do you know that not
one bank teller in a hundred will dc

money drawer, extract a handful OF
money, hand you from dozen to ten

very last bill he will drop on the pile
But the average cashier will snaI

And Jacquon, amazed, felt tear fall

Nor did he laugh when, after stealth
lily escaping from the house whilst his
mother was preparing the evening
meal, he entered the wineshop few
hours later.
The ne'er-do-wells, greeting him as
usual, gave him beer; and Jacquon
drank several glasses, but he did not
clap his hands nor nod his head, nor
laugh when the VISITING at his family 8
expense began.
More beer was called for, but it had
no exhilarating effect on JacQuon.
At last he was told that The was

He had no right to be proud, no rea-

the words: my poor Jacquon, my poor

native tribesmen early in June, result
ing in the loss of 40 Egyptians killed.
No losses were sustained by the ex-

on the garrison at Talodi was due to
the resentment of the tribesmen at the

NHERE BIG LIONS PROWL.
;outh Africa Is a Country Where
Hugh Beasts Are Numerous
and Dangerous.

"On the Broken Hill road" says the
Bulawayo Chronicle of an incident in
that part of South Africa, ION a re-
cent night lion entered hut where
n were sleeping two white men.
Pushing open the reed door, the ami
nal made for the nearer of the two
;leepers, and, gripping him by the
shoulder with it's teeth, lifted him
from his bed. The cries of the man
brought several natives to the scene,
and these pluckily attacked the beast,
bringing it to bay. A shotgun hap
pened, fortunately, to be near by, and
this the captive succeeded in reaching,
instantly shooting the lion. The man,
whose name is Thornton, was very
badly mauled, but he is making fa-
vorable progress" ::2s.. M.
In Rhodesia, too, the lions are trou-
blesome. An Englishman named Mar
.riott was playing tennis with a man
named Flynn when news was brought
in that lion was attacking the
mules. Both rushed for their guns
and went In pursuit Of the beasts,
which they sighted within a short dis
lance OF their home. Marriott fired
and wounded a lion twice, but without
fatal effect. The enraged beast
charged him, and bit him severely on
the thighs. It's teeth also penetrated
his hands and left shoulder. Flynn
fired and killed the lion Marriott
was able to go home, but was ordered
to hospital, where he expired "a hours
later. n. \. q.
Eat least eight lions have appeared
in the districts Of Moore's concession
and Simmonia recently" says South

visiting his stable one morning,
wherein the previous night he had
tied up two mules, found nothing but
bones. Two Of these lions, it is since
reported, have been killed In the

THE POLICE COURT.
Dr Callaghan's Case Again Continued
 for Another Week.

The case against Dr P. J. Callag- han for breach of the peace in en- tering the home of Mrs Sossin. 19 Phoenix avenue, and threatening her because he claimed she owed him for rent, was continued in the city court to-day to next Wednesday. A doctors certificate stated that the woman was unable to appear in court.
 William O'Hearn, who was before the court yesterday and put on pro- bation, was up again to-day, making the fourth time in a week. He was charged with intoxication and being a common drunkard and was given ninety days in jail.
 For the past week or so a young man named Martin Brann has been around town too weak to work and unable to take care of himself. In several places he was taken with fits. This morning about o'clock Special Officer Horan found him on South Main street and concluded, af- ter questioning him, that the station house was the best place for him. Before court opened to-day Brann was taken with a fit. He was charg- ed with vagrancy and when his case was called he was too weak to move. Doorman Lynch stated that the young man few days ago applied to be sent to Brookside. The police, of course, could not send him there, but Judge Burpee did, for thirty days.
 William Rush, whose home is in Passaic, N. J., was charged by his uncle, Charles Bernstein, 36 Clark street, with theft of a gold watch and a bicycle of the value of $35. Rush is young fellow and he came here only few weeks ago. Monday he disappeared with the wheel and the watch was missed the same day, but later 1t was found in a vase in the house. The wheel was recovered yesterday. Actual theft was not proved and the boy was let go.
 James Dowd was ordered to pay his wife s6 week for six months or go to jail for sixty days. Harry Knickerbocker paid $7. He took his employers, Fred Hotchkiss, horse without leave.

TAPPING PRIVATE SEWER.
Pratt Street People. Who Paid the
 Bills. Don't Like It.

Hugh Keenan appeared before the board of public works last night and stated that some years ago number of property owners on Pratt place constructed sewer in that street at their own expense and then paid for connecting with 1t just the same as if the city had done the work. A few people whose land abutted on the passway refused to contribute any thing to the cost. claiming that they were connected with the sewer on Liberty street and had no frontage on Pratt place. Since that time these pieces of property have changed hands and the houses that then front ed on Liberty street have been moved back on to Pratt place to make room for large blocks on Liberty street. The private sewer has been tapped without consulting those who own 1t and Mir Keenan desired to know by whose authority this had been done. Nobody could answer the query and the matter was finally re- ferred to the clerk for investigation and report.

REGULAR SKYSCRAPER
Brooklyn Building h Course Of Con-
 stucdon VIII Have 45 Flats.

There have been some fairly good
 sized building erected along Bank
 street of late, and much building has
 been done in Brooklyn, but the block
 Which John L. Fernandez has under
 contemplation will surpass every
 thing in Brooklyn. MT Fernandez,
 who at present has three blocks un-
 der lis supervision. intends to erect
 a block at the corner of Bank and
 Porter streets which will have forty
 five tenements. It will be five stOr-
 les high and will nave nine rents to a floor. The owner undoubtedly
 thinks that there is large field for
 rents in Brooklyn, for the blocks that
 he is having constructed just now are large ones. One of them has six teen tenements, another eight and the third six. The buildings were only under construction a short time when they were affected by the strike but MT Fernandez could not afford to wait, so in short time his 'build- ings were going up as fast as they were before the labor trouble. His present blocks are at the corner of East Porter and Bank streets, while the proposed building will be on the corner directly opposite. There is a lot there which has frontage of 116 feet on Bank street, while on Porter street 1t extends along for S97 feet. After constructing the monstrous tenement house which will undoubt- edly be the largest in Brooklyn, even though Wards Flats" is supposed to contain f1fty-six families, MT Fer nandez will still have enough avail able property to put up seven houses, each of which will contain six tene- ments. He says that already the arch itect is drawing the plans and asserts that his block will be started in about two months. He would Ike to begin next month, but is of the opin- ion that he should have his other blocks completed before he con- mences on the big one. When these buildings are finished, there should be enough rents in Brooklyn for some time to come.
