Provisions for Katalla

H Rogers came up yesterday morning from Katalla to make arrangements for having some pro visions shipped to that town He stated that when he left there was only sufficient food to last the town two weeks, and as the recent outgoing boats were unable to stop to unload, it IS probable that by this time provis- ions are very scarce in the breakwater city
 The Bertha took so tons of food stuff, and if she can succeed in un- loading, this will relieve the situation fer a few days. but as there are 25OO men in the camp and little chance of any steamer unloading during the winter months, there is bound to be considerable suffering before spring.
 It has been the policy of the KatalIa Co. to carry no surplus of supplies, as they believed they could land freight at any time The officers have been repeatedly told that they would have to lay Tn a stock during the summer to last practically all winter, but they ignored the aovice and now will have to suffer the cou- sequences, which may be very serious
 Owing to the scarcity of provisions all the laboring men who were shipped from here for Katalla will undoubtedly be carried on to Seattle, even if the weather is such that the vessels can rtop.

v liam Fl. Seward made the famous pur. chase of Russian America and caused Alaska to become one of the posses sions of the United States. Many writers who have visited the North land in recent years have woven English words into beautiful seu tences, and given grand samples of word painting to express their admira- tiop of the man who, with prophetic eye, saw the possibilities of the coun. try winch in the Russian language means great land" Statesmen, writers and statisticiaps claim that the real greatness of the United States be- gan with the discovery of gold in Cali fornia; that the North would have won out in the war of the rebellion had 1t not been for the flood of wealth that flowed from tEe mines of the golden state, etc. From this IL is difficult to compare the possibilities of Alaska; in fact, the matter is simply beyond conjecture. Alaska, vast as she is, is yet virgin land as far as her immense resources are known, and generations will be born, reared and become the fathers and mothers of other generatio s, before the resources of the country are all known and the door of opportunity is closed to those who desire to reach out for the oppor- tunlties which William Fl. Seward made possible on that memora ble 18th day of October. 1867, when for the sum of S7 100000 he purchased the country from Russia and gave it as heritage to the bOldeSt of the American citizens -EX

SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY.
Cheshire's Wcll-known Educational In- stituticn to Celebrate 18th
 Anniversary.

Under date of May 20 J. Frederick Sexton, of New Haven, sends the afol- lowing letter to graduates of the Cheshire school, extending an invita- ton to attend the 18th anniversary on June 20:
 qThe 112th anniversary of the school was a grand success. Great enthusi- asm was shown by the men ranging from the class of 1S42 to 1906. About 15O old boys from all parts of the coun- try attended and many more would have been present had business en- agreements permitted. Many boys from whom we had heard nothing for twen- ty years responded to our circular let ters. and one boy, eighty years young, returned to the school after sixty-four years absence. Several who had not seen the school since their graduation, twenty-five, twenty and fifteen years ago, saw the new school for the first time and were enthusiastic in their praises.
 'The 18th anniversary is just one month from to-day. Preparations are being made to make it even more sue cessful than last year. We are laying plans to meet 300 old boys. We want you there. Come and be surprised to find friends of your school days there to welcome you,

JUDGE rAFTs WESTERN TOUR.


 It would seem that the program mapped out by Secretary Taft for his western tour was touched by the finger of political fate, and made it fit pre- cisely the situation that has evolved as a result of changed condition in Ohio. MT. Foraker has followed the leader ship of "Bos" Cox of Cincinnati to the extent of expressing a willingness to support Secretary Taft heartily for the presidency If the republicans of the state shall so decree. This is accept ed here as meaning that Secretary Taft will have the Ohio delega tion, and his presidential boom was given such an impetus as a result that he will be 9

AGAINST FEDERATION. PRESBYTERIANS ACT. But Members as Individuals May Join Anti-saloon
 League.

Columbus, O., May 2t,-After much discussion the committee on polity of the Presbyterian general assembly in executive session to-day decided to re- pors against church. federation with the alti-saloon league. The overture which will be recommended to the general as- semblv for adoption does not say that Presbyterians as individuals shall not become members or officers of the An ti-saloon league, but it does set forth that these individuals shall not repre- sent the church in the league and that the actions in the cause shall not be considered as the actions of the church. Therefore this decision of the commit tee will knock out certain vital 1oints of overtures preceding it concerning temperance.
 By it's decision the polity committee also regards the report of the temper ance committee, which asks for a church federation, as unjudicial. The polity committee believes that the church should go its way and the anti saloon league it's way, each helping the NLAtsti' l Ildl lIle CllulCll oltUulu lOIIl ct federation, encroaching upon the terri tory of the anti-saloon league is the expressed belief of the committee. The indorsement of the anti-saloon league that the league should have the hearty, loyal support of the Presbyter- ian church in the United States of America and of all our churches is knocked out, although it will conform with the overture in this that the members of our churches be eneourag- ed to affiliate with and labor through the anti-saloon league. \
 The reports of the board of home mis- sions and board of education were submitted and adopted by the assem- blY.
 The bills and overtures committee recommended that patent medicine ad- vertisements be taken out of religious papers as soon as possible.

tEelIt6HuuuS cara when ne LTaVeIS through the Northwest in June.
 It is not unlikely that the secretary's itinerary will be materially enlarged, but instead of devoting so much time to the examination of military posts, as a part of his duty as war secretary, he will take more time for saying few words along political lines, and espe- cially for meeting the people of the va- rious sections.
 It is now practically settled that Sec~ retary Taft will make his principal po- litical speech at Tulsa, in Indian Ter ritory, on June at the meeting of the republican state convention of the pros posed new state of Oklahoma. From that time until June 20 the secretary will visit number of cities in the West and Northwest, arriving in st. Paul on the morning of July IA to spend the entire day It is probable that the secretary will devote part of that day to an inspection of Fort Snell- ing, and in the evening he will leave for Sioux Falls, s. D., on his way to inspect the military post at Fort Meade. In the interim following a visit to the military post of Fort Sill in the South- west on June ', Secretary Taft will be in St. Louis, Chicago and Milwaukee, and will go to Iowa City on June 10, where he will make a speech at tho state university. on June 13 he will deliver his Minnesota university speech. After leaving St Paul on the 14th Sec retary Taft will spend part of a day in Sioux Falls and will also visit Worthington, Sioux City and 0.Neill. From Fort Meade he will go to Fort Leavenworth and Kansas City and down as far as Ottawa, Kansas, arri9- ing there June 20.
 This general tour of all the states of the Mississippi valley will give many people an opportunity to see Secretary Taft and at the same time give this distinguished presidential candidate an excellent oportunity to meet thousands of representative citizens These facts regarding Mir. Taft's western tour, talk en in connection with the prospective result in Ohio, were commented upon. with undisguised elation in administra- tion circles to-day. The situation is believed to give Secretary Taft a de- cided advantage in the presidential race, and this is immediately followed by plans outlined for carrying the Taft candidacy into many states. Already there is discussion here of plans of or- ganization by which the Taft moye- ment is to be greatly extended.-Wasn- ington Dispatch to the St. Paul {ATinn) Pioneer Press.

Statement By Teamsters.

The teamsters stated that the com promise on $S.5O and $50 with the city involved the rest of the members of the union inasmuch as the contractors Blakeslee and Brazos and the coal dealers refuse to give more than the city pays and are willing to pay S4 and S6 if the city does so. This makes the settlement of the matter a complicated and difficult matter.

 Out of the Box.

The Princeton freshmen met with their second defeat at the hands of the Yale cubs yesterday afternon at Yale field, the final score being 10 to O.. The game was marked by Yale's heavy hitting. A remarkable feature of the game was that considering the heavy hitting of the Yale freshman team the Princeton nine only made one error. Yale also made one error, making the game a clean fielding exhibition. Wilson of Princeton was knocked out of the box and Peacock was substituted proving of little more avail against the wicked eye of the Yale men. Merritt for Yale allowed only one hit.
 Fred Murphy received the honors in the hitting line, getting three singles. The score by innings follow:
