there is talk of having another con-
gress undertake the duty of passing
the river and harbor Improvement
bill.

that their personal interests demand
the enactment of a public buildings
bill during The present session, but it

Orchestra Tuning Expiaince!.

Doubtless many the:ter 2oers have wondered why it is a practice of or cflestra musicians to make their ap- pearance go far ahead of the time of beginning the porfornance and sit in their se&ts Nith nothing to do, Then at q seeming given signal, all hands ac%!n to tune up" torturing the ears of tlo carly arrivals with q series or sCueaiss and scrapes. The mystery 'N>.$ explained by an orchestra leader l:e ether day "The instruments have to he ill accord With the temperature of tie house" said he There may be several degrees difference between the temperature af the music room below stage and the house itself. If we tuned our violins downstairs they would all be flat When we take ONT places in th2 orche tsa. Fer that reason we come upstiiHf earlier and lot our ill- struments> get tl!e house atmosphere before the actual tuning heeins"- New York Press

There are now in Alaska probably
a dozen unidentified specimens of

fits to Alaska and Yukon OF the Alas
a yukon Pacific Exposition, which
will b. held at Seattle in 1909, will
