JOHN THE BEAR HUNTER
 HAS COME BACK.

John the Bear Hunter, who left Ram part for Fairbanks in the winter of 1904 '05 and went outside last summer to die, has returned to the Panama looking as healthy as ever. He says his health was all right outside, but that it was too crowded.
 It was the first time he had been out side in fourteen years.
 Some of his experiences told to Judge Erwin and others are chronicled in the Fairbanks News. He said fellow hailed him one day by calling: "Hello, Alaska {! Get in and take ride" He says he got into go-devil, which hit it up at speed that made his hair raise. "Stop her, stop herb he demanded, and the minute it slowed down he jumped to the ground.
 "What's the matter?" asked the man in the machine.
 "Nothin' at all, "s said John; "only the darned old thing don't go fast enough to suit me. S long"

FRANK STEVENS BUYS
 ON GOLD RUN

Frank Stevens has bought from M. S. Gill the ground known as the w. P. Beardsley claim on Gold Run. Included in the purchase was 6-horse-power boiler, engine, pump, etc, comprising the outfit used by Mir. Gill in the deep prospect work on Glen the past winter.
 The clatm which has just changed hands adjoins the L. A. Jones claim on Gold Run, where Frank Stevens, James Lawrence, George Shirley and Dad Eos ter are working a lay. The laymen are on good pay, and their operations the past winter give Mir. Stevens an excel lent opportunity to form a correct esti- mate of his new purchase.
 The Gill cabin, adjoining Mir. Stevens s cabin in Rampant, was also included in the transaction.

BIG DREDGING SCHEMES
 FOR CIRCLE

The Birch Creek, or Circle, district is soon to become the scene of big dredging operations. In addition to the ground secured on Eagle and Mammoth creeks by Berry Bros. and Frank Lamb, fer dredging, Albert Trabold, late of Daw- son, now of Fairbanks, has secured eighteen claims along Deadwood creek, between Nos. p and 40 below, for a dredge. Berry Bros man was also after the ground.
 "The operators are busy throughout the district" said Charles Oesterle, who is interested on Deadwood, to the Fair banks News recently. "A number of holes were placed to bedrock this winter and average pay found. Charles Hogan has 61a feet of pay which banned as high as 34 cents to the pan. Dredger people have tried to buy the ground, but Mir. Hogan won't sell his claim, and this has held up the sale. Albert Trabold, how ever, has secured Is claims on another part of the creek for dredging purposes. Good pay has been found on switch creek, q tributary of Deadwood, and q number of miners are busy working their claims. As a dredging proposition the country offers big returns. Enough work has been done to show the average pay in the gravel so that it is not a speculation in any sense of the word. That camp will become a big producer when the dredgers get to work.

PREDICTS FAILURE
 FOR WELLMAN

 airship, was told in Paris last month by Comte de Ia Vaulx that his attempt will fail and that he and the people who ac- company him will probably lose their lives Comte de la Naux is an aeronaut of renown and holds the record in long distance balloon voyages in day and a half he flew from Paris to karostychev, near kiev, Russia, about 1,200 miles. Mellman sets forth the counts predic- tions in the following dispatch to his paper:
 The count has given me the benefit of his most extensive experience as navi- gator of the air. He has invited me to make balloon ascension with him, and I shall go with him.
 Comte de la Vaulx, it should be said |, has not the slightest faith in the success of our enterprise, and he frankly tells me so. 1 like that a good deal better than if he were to conceal his real opin ion through mistaken idea of courtesy. According to his view, We are not only certain to fail to reach the pole, but are more than likely to lose our lives.
 Upon hearing this expression from the lips of one of the most experienced aero nauts of France, you may be sure 1 lost no time in cross questioning him as to the reasons for his belief. In brief they are:
 l. That it is absolutely impossible to construct good airshipin in less than two years, and that to talk of building one in five months is simply madness.
 2 That after building an airship be- fore going to the Arctic region with it and trying to attain the pole, ore should spend two or three years in trials in civilized parts of the world, making voyages at least twice as long as to the proposed voyage to the pole and back.
 3. That if we do build an airship and start for the pole we shall never get there.
 1. That if we do get there, we shall not be able to make landing upon the ice, because there are no people there to assist us.
 ,. That if we do get to the pole and stop long enough to make scientific ob- servations, we shall never be able to get bIck.
 All of which is very interesting and also highly important-if true. And l do not know whether it is true or not. Furthermore, the only way in which We can ever find out whether or not it Is true is by simply going up north and putting the thing to the crucial test of actual trial. A theory unfavorable is of no more value than a theory favor? ble the optimist is just as likely to be right as the pessimist-and at any rate he en- joys life better while it lasts.
 In an interview published in LEelair COmte de la Naulx says:
 Mir. Wellman will have ,OO0 kilome- tcrs to travel between spitzbergen and the pole. But despite the years anal years of experience with dirigibles, pur' sued with apparatus more and more perfected, do you know, from the point

PAPERING THEHOUSE
STUDY EXPOSURE OF ROOMS
AND FURNISHINGS.
fainted Kitchen Walls Are More
Sanitary and Serviceable Than
Paper-Plain or Two Toned Best
for Sitting-Rooms.

The room facing the south must
have a cool neutral paper, while the
rooms with northern aspect must
nave the effect of sunlight intro
duced by means of warm, cheerful
paper.
Another point to be considered is
whether the rooms open out of one
another, as they must not all have
different color scheme, or the eff
feet would be intolerable.
Plain or two toned papers are the
best selections for the sitting-rooms,
as one soon gets tired of a figured
paper and longs for relief of plain
surfaces. These should be broken nm
by the Introduction of picture mold
ings or dado rails. These straight
horizontal lines add greatly to the
effect of the walls.
In small house it is a great adj
vantage to keep the color scheme in
one key. If the hall is green have
the parlor paler tone of the same
color. If living room can be seen
from the hall green burlap would
make variety and still carry out
the color scheme.
The dining room would be better
in a color that lights up well at
night, and you will, of course, be
guided in your choice of coloring by
its aspect.
A tapestry dado with lots of green
in it would repeat the color scheme,
and yet the room could be bright
ened by having a pale paper above
the dado.
Ususally the parlors suffer most
in inartistic trash sold under the
name of parlor papers which cannot
be considered by any woman Of
taste
Shiny papers in imitation OF satin
are probably entirely out of keeping
with the surroundings, and plain felt
or two-toned paper which would
serve as a good background for the
pictures would be infinitely more
suited and easier to keep in har-
mony with its surroundings.
Bedroom papers are often resort
ed to for parlor use, but after a time
they become tiresome beyond words
and serve to make the room lack
dignity.
The choice of bedroom paper is
comparatively easy, as the prettiest
varieties can always be found.
1t is best to paint the kitchen and
pantry walls, unless tiles are used.
A wall paper is entirely out of place
and is very unsanitary.
1t is also important that the walls
should be scrubbable, as soap and
water must always play an impor-
tant part in a sanitary kitchen.

FASHIONS MANDATE.

Wells form important accessories
to the up-to-date toilette. ard there
are almost as many varieties and as
many ways of arranging them as
there are people to wear them.
The separate skirt, although it
has been superseded by the shirt
suit, is, nevertheless shown in a
number of attractive models, and its
popularity is not likely to expire.
Very smart skirt suits. or, rather,
three-piece suits, are made with
plated silk skirt, and coat and waist
of plain silk, matching the predomi-
mating color in the plaid. None OF
the plaids, as popular as plaids are.
are at all aggressive, and those
showing shadow effects are given
precedence, even for children's
dresses.
The waist line has crawled up two
inches, the skirts enwrap one like
s" adding clothes, and sleeves hang
dejectedly from the shoulders. Alto
gether, the strictly correct woman,
when arrayed in her newest tog-
gerry, suggests nothing in appearance
so much as a wax mannikin or
clothes pole-until one becomes ac-
customed to the change.

The following statements have
been made from time to time by ex-
perts on color science.
Children under seven years of age
usually prefer yellow to other colors.
Women are more apt to have
brown eyes than any other color, the
proportion of that hue being thirty
five out of every hundred.
Colors passing through a prism
can be made to produce sounds;
noises, whereas blue and yellow pro-
duce the faintest.
Dew will not fall on certain colors.
A yellow board will be covered with
dew, while a red or black one will
remain quite dry.
In ordinary cases of partial color
blindness, of which there are many
more than is commonly supposed,
the color sensations that remain are
blue and and yellow, not blue and
red or blue and green as is generally
assumed and even stated in text
books, says Home Notes.
On the isthmus of Tehauntepec
there has lately been found flower
that changes color, being white in
the morning, red at noon and blue in
the evening 1t roughly does the
work of a clock, the changes being
remarkably regular.

GUIDES TO HEALTH.

Uncooked figs are aperient, but
during the cooking process lose this
property.
Celery contains sulphur, and is ex-
cellent either steamed or raw for
the skin and may be used quite sat
isfactorily in place Of cold cream.
When a gripping pain occurs in the
abdomen a strong aperient should be
taken at once. Pads made of hot
flannels will sometimes give relief
until the medicine has acted.
Almond milk softens and whitens
the hardest skin.
Dates are excellent for people with
consumptive tendencies. are very
easily digested and contain abund-
ance of sugar.
A pinch of salt in a glass of warm
water is good for bathing weak or
tired eyes.

Water that has once been heated,
or that has stood any length of time
in the kettle, cannot be made to boil
as quickly as freshly drawn cold
water. If this fact were fully appre-
ciated, it would have more weight
with housekeepers as an argument
against using water that has stood
over night than numerous homilies
on the unhealthfulness of stale wa
ter. Fresh water is living, and water
that has been boiled or allowed to
stand long absorbing gases and heat.
is either dead or poisoned, so it is
easier to boil fresh water than stale
or dead water.
Good Game For the Nursery.
A soap bubble race makes excel
lent fun. Lay a long stick on the
floor to serve as a goal and provide
eech player with a fan, which can be
made of stiff paper, with which to
drive the bubbles from the starting
point, says Home Notes. At a given
signal the bubbles are blown and the
fens brought into use. II bubble
bursts before any player has reached
the goal the player may return to
blow a second one.
