MEMORIAL DAY,

Each recurring May is remind
er OF the dark days of the sixties.
The living today, who were on the
stage of action forty-hve years ago,
can we'll recall those stirring, mo
mentous times that thrilled the
American people, both the north
and the south. The music of fife
and drum reverberated from every
valley and hillside in our land. 1t
was then our homes were tested to
the utmost, sending forth hus-
bands, fathers and sons, and leav-
ing wives and daughters to care
for farm and shop, while they
should be Drawing the storms of
battle. Those heart-rending times
when grief ran so deep no utter
ance could be given, endearing EN-.
braces without word, partings
with signal only of farewell.
Truly those were stirring times and
it seemed then that memory must
ever dwell on the sad and hallow-
ed scenes. But with the fast fleet
ing years how we have outgrowp
them all! and It's we'll, for life
would be unified for the duties
that ever await it, With most, to-
day the Civil war is hardly a men,
ory. A few whose wounds were
keenest may yet have the indelible
impression, and often recall the
trying days Of the COS, but the
larger remnant so seldom revert to
them they are quite forgotten. But
may we not so far forget but that in
each bright May of coming years
we will go forth with the first bios
SONS of spring and strew the lowly
grassy tents where sleep our fall

Bring flowers, bright flowers, with dewey
jewels beset: M
Scatter them freely lest we forget:
Aud for centuries to come may we hallow the
day 81

Valuable Chairs.

The value of chairs is strictly rela-
tive. Enormous prices have been paid
for chairs in recent years, notably the
100000 for a set of half dozen
Louis XIV. chairs upholstered in
Gobelin tapestry, originally made for
Marie Antoinette. Even this price,
however, was exceeded by sums paid
for three of the Hamilton palace
chairs, one Of which brought $4,000. A
most valuable and historical inter
esting suite of furniture is that which.
more than a century ago, was present
ed by Warren Hastings to Tippoo Sa-
hib, and which was purchased at the
Londesborough sale for $4,000. The
suite consisted of a card table and
sofa, two small cabinets and four arm.
chairs, all of solid ivory most exquis-
itely carved. But probably the most
costly chair in the world is one of the
treasures of the shah of Persia. It
is of solid gold, thickly encrusted
with diamonds, rubies, pearls and sap
phires. It's value is estimated to be
81, 100000.

the tourists accosted a youth who was

ALAsKA's GREAT FISH RIVER.
Nushasak the Basis Of Important Can.
ming Industry.

How many readers ever heard Of the
Nushagak river, asks the Youths Com
ponion. Not many, it is safe to say.
Yet the department of commerce and
labor pronounces this river of western
Alaska zone of the important fishing
streams of the world" The fish which
the Nushagak furnishes is salmon, the
taking, canning, freezing and sailing
of which is an Alaskan industry. the
Importance of which is shown by a re-
cent report issued by the department
of commerce and labor The first two
canneries were built in 1878. Since
then the number has increased until in
1902 there were 64 establishments,
which put up more than 2,50000
cases. Low prices since then have
somewhat reduced both the number Of
canneries and the output; neverthe-
less. since canning began in Alaska.
nearly 22,000,000 cases have been sent
out. In order to provide some coun-
teTpoise to this tremendous drain the
packers combined to start hatcheries.
These have been carried on with i'm
portant results and increasing success.
In 1905 the United States bureau of
fisheries took up the work, in addition
to what had been done by the packers.
There are now nine hatcheries, from
which about 450,O00,OOO fry have been
liberated.
