covered a fire in the workshop at night
and by prompt action kept the fire
from spreading. On another occasion
during the administration Of Harry S
Lands as warden, Killion helped to
put out a fire in the coal mine. He
risked his life by crawling into
rooms" to extinguish fires and came
near suffocating.
Killion has been in the prison since
April, 1898, having served nearly thir-
teen years and six months. During
the first years of his Imprisonment. he
made considerable trouble, but in the
last ten years his record has been such
a. to win the confidence Of the prison
officials. For two years he has been a
"trusty" in the position of Waterman
at the pumphouse. He remained at
the pumphouse on the river bank 81
night and makes the trip to and from
the prison unattended.
In the event of the parole. Killion
plans to pass his remaining days on a
farm, which he will buy if released.
He is now suffering from rheumatism.

FIND A new SORT OF BABY
Red-Headed Island Is Born In
behPing Sea.
SMOKES HARD ALL DAY AND ALL night
MODEL BEING MADE FOR EXIT.
eITIoN At THE BIG ALASKA
FAIR.
SMOKES HARD ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT

SEATTLE, Dec. 10.-There is a red
headed baby up in Behring sea, a baby
that, although only a few months old,
smokes vigorously all day and all night
The baby is being studied by the wise
men of America, who will make an i'm
age of him and show him at the Alas
ka-Yukon-Pacific exposition, which is
to be held in the summer of 1909 to
exploit Alaska and to encourage ORR
entail trade. By 1909, the baby, it is
thought, will have cooled off sufficiently
to permit the wise men to look him
over at short range. Just now he IS
very not and disagreeable.
Cute Little Island.
The baby Is chip off the old block,
if you can call the continent of Amer
lea a block, and he is about the cutest
little island that ever poked his head
out Of the ocean. He was born about
the time of the San Francisco earth
quake, and that horrible disturbance
had something to do with his coming
to be.
The island was discovered by the
crew of the revenue cutter Perry
which came near humping into mis-
babykins. For the chart showed clear
water where the island stood. When
the cutter came near, the little brat
was smoking There was smoke,
black, horrid smoke, pouring from the
cracks of his skull, and his nair was
burning. The cutter sailed within half
a mile and then backed away, for the
atmosphere was hot from melted lava.
They named babykins Perry island.
Perry island will be shown on the next
chart as a mass Of lava, $50 feet nigh
and 700 feet in length at the base. 1t
is situated As miles southeast Of Dutch
Harbor, Alaska.
In Boiling Water.
When the island was first observed,
last June, great clouds Of smoke and
vapor lowered about it, and the water
for several hundred feet all around
was boiling. The sides of the assures.
through which the smoke poured, and
the lava adjoining for several inches,
are covered with sulphur. On top of
the great mass Of lava there is a
small crater, from which smoke and
lava and Jets of fire were issuing when
the Perry left it on September Is.
Since that time, it is reported, the era
ter has ceased to be active, but fresh
eruptions may occur at any time.
To Figure It Out.
A scientific examination into the
cause of the upheaval of Perry island
is to be made, for the mass of lava has
interested Uncle Sans experts. A
model of the phenomenon will be on
exhibition at the Alaska Yukon Pacific
exposition. The United States will
take a prominent part in the big fair
and a speciality will be made OF inter-
esting exhibits from the far north.
Alaska is noted for scenery which is
said to excel that Of any other part OF
the world. and the geological forma-
lions which result in this display OF
natural beauty are of absorbing inter-
est.
