 A prominent sign displayed on the front of O'Neal 6 Company's store Wednesday morning in- formed the public that that en- terprising firm had "Fish For Sale" Careful inquiry might have elicited the information that they were only taking orders for future delivery and that the fish would be caught after the orders were all in. Mr. O'Neal was out after the finny tribe Tuesday and it was not the abundance of fish that he caught that led to this sign being displayed but only the excellent encouragement he re- ceived that caused him to believe he would be able to fill all orders a little later on.

 Henry Rowland says that somebody borrowed a side of meat from his smokehouse one night recently The mis- creant showed that he wanted to treat Henry with at least some consideration as he took only a small sized middling. Henry says that he believes that man who would act on the square in that way in a matter of stealing meat will return it in due time. Henry is an all around good hearted fellow and it would be very mean man that would steal full sized piece of meat from him.

AND IS INDIGO BLUE IN COLOR
COUNTRY RICH IN. uNlDENTI.
FLED SPECIMENS or ORES.

SEATTLE, Oct 25.--A recent dis
-covery 125 miles below Rampant on the
Yukon has aroused intense interest in
the North. James Iangford, a RAM
part pioneer, has found a vein of min
eral of the consistency of chalk and of
an indigo blue in color. 1t can be used
as ordinary chalk. None of the Alas
kan minerologists can identity it. and
IT Is being sent to Seattle for ANALYSIS.
There are now in Alaska probable
dozen unidentified specimens of min
erals and one of the many benefits to
Alaska and Yukon OF the Alaska-Yu-
kon- Pacific exposition, which will be
htld at Seattle in 1909, will be the as
sembling and classifying of these now
unknown specimens. In many cases
the owners of the veins of unidentified
minerals believe that they stand a
chance of winning great wealth, as
their find may be some hitherto undis-
covered combination.
As original research work viii % On
all the time the exposition is In prog
ress, one of the first duties of the sa-
wants in charge of this branch win be
the identifying of these unknown ele-
ments or combinations, and the adopt-
ing of them to some commercial mir
pose.
