GOOD TEST

 Up Well

The Skagway fire department showed up to good advantage in the drill last night. Two races were made to an imaginary fire in the Perl building, at the corner Of State street and Fifth avenue. h sn almost incredibly short time four streams of water were food ing the premises at each test.
 The victory in the races went 50 Com panies No. ? and No. 8. The last named company made the best run iu the first race and got the first stream of water on the building, but Company No. ? goI two streams on it before the other got on its last stream.
 The second race was between Fire Companies No. sud No. ?, The latter company got the first water on by a very close margin, ard disLanced it's competition in getting the second stream on.
 The hook and ladder truck was on the ground in very quick order bu. some difficulty was experienced in operating it, It got tangled up with electric light and telephone wires The truck is seldom used either iu practice or otherwise.
 Taken altogether it was made evident that 8 fire would have to get quite a long start 70 do much damage in tht city,

Bermuda the Onionless,

If you just go to Bermuda for the
onions you had better stay at home,
because all the onions are exported.
But If you can make up your mind to
do without onions, you will have a
splendid time. In the first place,
there are no railroads, and, oh,
blessed thought! no trolleys on the
islands. You can forget the hurry
and the fret and rest tired nerves.
You can bathe, you can sail on the
wonderfully clear, still water within
the rampant of coral; you can fish,
and look through water glasses
thirty feet down on the teeming life
under sea. The Bermuda boats are
rugged with something which is al
most balloon jib and a lego NUT
ton, or jib-headed mainsail, and they
are of very deep draught. But they
work pretty handily, and will stand
up and sail fast in rough water, so
that you can take them out beyond
the protected water without fear. At
any rate, they add to the attractive
ness of the islands to everybody who
cares for sailing.-Travel Magazine.

COSTLY PRESSURE.
Heart and Nerves Fail on Coffee.

A resident of a great Western
State puts the case regarding stimu-
lants with comprehensive brevity
that is admirable. He says:
II am Sc years old and have had
considerable experience with stimu-
lants They are all alike-a mortgage
on reserved energy at ruinous inter-
est AS the whip stimulates but does
not strengthen the horse. so do stim-
ulants act upon the human system.
Feeling this way, gave up coffee
and all other stimulants and began
the use of Postum Food coffee some
months ago. The beneficial results
have been apparent from the first.
The rheumatism that used to suffer
from has left me, sleep sounder,
my nerves are steadier and my brain
clearer. And I bear testimony also
to the food value of Postum--some-
thing that Is lacking in coffee" Name

Women Who Will Gamble.

The most difficult gambling to keep
in check both in Singapore and Pen.
ang is gambling among Straits-born
women of all classes from the highest
downward. Frequent complaints are
received from husbands whose wives
have lost heavily, and it is known that
there are five lotteries operating more
or less daily in Singapore which are
almost exclusively supported by
''nonias." Education may possibly do
something to stop this vice among the
Straits-born ladies', but it must be
confessed that its effect in that di-
rection on their husbands and brothers
Is but small.-South China Post.

A RACE OF GIANTS
Americans of Future Will Be STRONGER
Physically and Mentally.

anu WCHIdlly.
According to DR.. w. j. MCGEE of
st. Louis the American of the future
will be taller man, stronger. more
intellectual, more humanitarian and
will live longer than the American of
today. DR.. McGee read paper
entitled, "The American of To-mor.
row." before the anthropological sec.
tion of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science"
"At the present time" said DR..
McGee, in support of his contention,
"every babe born lives on an average
of SO years. Half a century ago the
average life was 27 years, and 100
years back the span of life was "a to
25 years, thus showing that the lon.
gevity is increasing"
In the opinion of DR.. McGee, John
d. Rockefeller is typical of the
American Of tomorrow. He describ
ed Mr.. Rockefeller as ''the incarna.
tion of concentrated effort" and de-
clared that from an anthropological
point of view he undoubtedly repre-.
sented the coming American. He con.
sidered Mr.. Rockefellar's great
wealth as only incidental and said
whatever line of business Mr.. Rookie
feler had chosen he would have taken
first rank.

Foreign Evening Wraps.

At foreign theatres and casinos
the wrap is an important garment,
especially as it is not always left
in the cloak-room. Evening mantles
are now made of the flimsiest ma
terial, lace and chiffon, emphasized
by valuable furs, being the chief in
gradients; but panne, Liberty satin
and velvet are also used for this
purpose. Now and then one may
meet with a decorative affair Of
which fine, light-colored cloth is the
background.

Who Had the Bottles?

John Bright was once asked how
it was that Pitt made one of his
finest speeches after drinking two
bottles of port. John Bright was, as
usual, equal to the occasion. He
pointed out that verbatim reporting
was unknown in those days, and he
suggested that the other members
Of the House. on whose opinion Pitts
reputation largely depended. had
probably drunk three bottles.
