CHINESE LIKED THE CATALOGS
Consul Says They Used Them for Sol
Leather.

SEATTLE, Dec. 11.-An amusing
Thornwell Haynes, United States
consul at Nankin, China, which goes
to show how ignorance of the way to
go about trade is costing Americans
money every year. The story is es-
pecially timely in view of the fact that
a western worlds fair, the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition, is to be held
in 1909, with one principal object, the
bringing together in trade of the peo-
pie of China and the United States.
1T would be most unfortunate if
we are to be forever tied down to this
unsystematized, spasmodic, hit or miss
attempt to gain trade by sending over
circulars which have absolutely no
meaning to a Chinaman," said the con-
sui Consul Haynes advocates the hir-
ing of agents who can speak Chinese,
and the use of advertising matter
printed in the Chinese language.
Somewhere recently I heard of the
great good consul thought he was do
ing in distributing such circulars, etc.
There seemed to be an incessant de-
mand for them by the Chinese. 4
would especially like those with thick
leaves remarked Chinaman one day,
in calling for American trade cata-
logs. This, exciting the consurs curl
osity, led to the discovery that they
were wanted as inside soles for Shoes"
The people who visit the Alaska u-
kon-Pacific exposition in 1909, will
have an excellent opportunity to study
at first hand the life of the Orient, for
China and the other countries across
the Pacific will be represented by in
teresting displays.

HOG HEAD; SHEEP HORNS.
Image of Remarkable Animal Un-
earthed Recently, to be Displayed.

SEATTLE, Dec ia curious image
in stone, of an animal with the head
of a hog and horns like a sheep,
has been uncovered by workmen build
ing railroad near Underwood, WASH
ington, and will be exhibited at the
Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposition that
is to be held at Seattle in 1909
The image is in some ways the most
remarkable thing of the sort ever dis
covered, and promises to rival in the
interest it arouses, Barnums famous
fake, the Cardiff giant But the image
is real. 1t doesn't pretend to be a pc
trifaction of anything, and it could not
very well, for, SO far as is known, no
such animal as hog sheep ever has
existed. 1t was carved out of solid ba-
salt rock, and is hard as IRON
The image is about two feet high,
and probably originally was rather
taller, as it evidently has been broken
off at the bottom. Edward Underwood,
who discovered it, a pioneer of 1853,
believes the thing was made by In
dams who formerly camped at the
mouth of the White Salmon river, near
which it was found.
Engineers who have examined the
curiosity declare, however, that it's an
tiquity is SO great as to make this i'm
possible. Furthermore, the Indians
made their images not of stone, but of

other boat.

Says JAPs were At FAULT
Sixteen Vessels Having Crews of 80
Each Were Engaged in Sealing
Operations.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE jap
anese pelagic sealing fleet, which was
reported in Boring sea during the
summer consisted of at least sixteen
vessels, each of which carried a crew
of thirty men and from five to seven
small boats for sealing. It was only
when the crews of the schooners land
ed, or attempted to land, that the fed
eral agents were able to make arrests
and those of the Japanese who were
killed belonged to parties that were
caught red handed"
These statements are made to Sec
rotary Metcalf by Edwin w. Sims, who
at that time was solicitor Of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, but
now United States district attorney
at Chicago, of the seal poaching by
Japanese on the Pribilof islands early
last summer, which resulted in the
killing of five of the Japanese raiders,
the wounding of two and the capture
of total Of twelve prisoners.
Mr. Sims reports that the Japanese
fleet took thousands of seals within
the territorial waters of the United
States surrounding the Pribilof islands
during the summer. He says the seal
herd is disappearing rapidly.
Chief Agent Lembkey and two ma
tive guards captured six men and a
boat on July 16, says Mr.. Sims, prac-
ideally without resistance. The men
claimed they came ashore for water.
They had, however all the instruments
necessary for the killing and skinning
Of seals.
The report accords great credit to
Agent Lembkey and to his guards.
Mr.. Sims recommends that a rev.
enue cutter cruise along the Alaskan
coast from May 1 to the latter part
of June, during the closed season, and
follow the seal herd in it's northward
course to the Pribilof islands.
Mr.. Sims urges that the laws be
strengthened so as to enable the rev.
enue cutters to seize and fire on any
trespassing vessel having seals or seal
skins or the paraphernalia for taking
them. He suggests that the islands of
st. Paul and st. George be equipped
with a few small cannon, but does not
think a permanent military guard
necessary.

on all sides of me and darted along
in the sunshine, slim and silvery, like

This fish always leaves the water at

Them flaps send it along twenty yards.
