Ice Moves From DaWsOn's
 Front

Dawson, May 1.-The remainder Of the ice went out in front of Dawson this morning and now, as far as the eye can see up and down the river, there is nothing but clean, running water, with now and again some float ice: Itwas at 7:44 a. m. today that the stakes in the ice, the moving of which fixed the record for the spring breaA up and the time upon which all bets and pools were settled, went down the river. Just below that point the river had been open for 36 hours.
 Reports from other points on the Yukon are as follows:
 Lower Labarge-Ice in Lake La barge getting more rotton.
 Tantalus-No small boats have passed this place on their way down stream.
 Yukon Crossing-The ice was float Ing down the stream an hour yesterday and it caused the river to rise six inches.
 Selkirk-A little ice is passing here all the time. The river continues very low. There is probably jam above here.
 Coffee Creek-The water fell about four feet here last night. This is probably caused by the formation of a jam a0ove here. The ice remains solid.
 Stewart-The river is clear as far as can be seen below here. There is ice above this place.
 Fortymile-The ice moved this Uorn- ing for few seconds and then stopped again.

recalled the old days when human life was

on one occasion Sir Francis Bacon was

Hog and Bacon are so nearly kindred that they
are not TO be separated" Aye. but" replied
the Judge, you and I cannot be kindred ex-
cept you be hanged. for Hog is not Bacon until
e he vol hanged" j,
Similar call0usness was evinced by Scottish
Judges even AZ late as the eighteenth century.
Lord Braxheld seemed to have taken a POSI-
tive pleasure in obtaining convictions In cases
and IL was he who told an unfortunate culprh
that he was q very clever fellow but that he
would be name the waur o'a han ging."
On another occasion, when this Judge no
