Wild Duck With Gold In Craw.

Cold in the craw of a wild duck
killed on the Klondike flats Friday

ed to find II gold colors there.
Where the duck got the gold is
a question. 1t is known there is gold
on the Klondike River bottom, but
probably not so plentiful in any one
known spot as to permit duck to
pan IL colors with one crop full Of
sand
The duck is widgeon. 1t doubt

must have fed on golden sands which

Comedy OF A Wedding Gift.

An American couple in London
was strolling along Oxford Street
looking in the shop windows. The
attention of the gentleman was at
tracted by handsome set of silver
teaspoons, two dozen in number, dis
played In an open case. Each spoon
of the set was of different pattern,
deliberately hand-carved and of ele-
CANT design.
"Those are Tiffany spoons" the
gentleman said to his wife.
why should they have Tiffany
spoons for sale over here?" she ask
ed, incredulously.
Il don't know, but they are. l
know because l once bought a set
like them myself. Let's go in and
look at them"
The salesman admitted readily
enough that they were Tiffany spoons,
and indeed they bore the well-known
hall mark.
"And what is the price Of them?"
the gentleman asked.
Three shillings the piece
"How can you possible sell them
for that price? I once bought set
that looked much like these and I
paid SO apiece for them,' said the
American frankly, not being espec-
tally on the lookout for bargains
that day.
well, you see, the way of 1t is
this. A customer of ours had this
set given to her for a wedding pres
ent some time ago and she did not
need them, so she prevailed on us to
take them in exchange for some Of
our own goods
"And you will sell them to me for
three shillings each?'
Eyes, sir"

The purchase was completed and
the Americans departed the wife de-
lighted with the bargain. When they
were we'll outside the shop the gen.

A Californian, w. Woods, fought
monstrous tuna for seven hours, then
turned it over to his boatman, Harry
Films, who continued for seven and a
quarter hours further. 'fhe fish was
then at the boats side, head down,
with about two feet of tail out of
water. Frank V. Rider, who attempt
ed the gazing. could not reach the
head, though the gaff pole measured
six feet, and in the struggle the lins
parted.
The next day dead tuna, esti-
mated to weigh 900 pounds, was seen
noating at sea, and it was generally
believed to be the same fish. Ezcur-
sion parties, at 81 per head, followed
