While a strange and deplorsble fact,
it il a fact nevertheless, that the
grounds about the country schools are
the most barren and bleak OF any places
in the county. County Superintend-
ent Aldrich is trying TO better this con-
dition and it is to be hoped that he
will have the support Of al! those in
terested. School life would be far
pleasanter in either winter or summer
If the building nestled in a grove Of
trees. The place would be cheerier
and We believe the work would be cas-
Ter and better. Certainly it would not
be so drear and ~lifeless il the gentle

es wherein the cheerful chipping Of

STEAMER YUGATAN HAS
 MIX.UP WITH A WHALE
Just One Swift Jolt in the SIats and Sea Monster Hurrles to Yield
 Right of Way.

The steamer Yucatan bumped a whale south of Latouche coming this way so hard that people aboard the vessel thought she had struck rock and some of them got ready to organ ize a panic. Before nervous persons had time to yell twice the whale had side-stepped and the steamer proceeded calmly on her way.
 The whale rose suddenly in the boat s path and the prov struck the monster amidships, nautically, or in the slatS, as anatomy is understood in the prize ring. The passengers in the bow Of the ship who saw the miX-up are of the opinion that it was lady whale because it did not turn and roar like a man who has been tipped over by a dump.cart. It merely glided away like lady who has been insulted by a masher, and yet the spectators thought they detected symptoms of physical in- jury as if the whalebone corset worn by the big fish had suffered some damage.

SARATOGA ARRIVES AND
 SAILS ON RETURN TRIP
Making Fast Run for Seattle in Order to Leave that Port on June
 Schedule.

Steamer Saratoga arrived in port at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon and sailed again for Seattle at noon today without going westward because she is scheduled to sail from Seattle June 1. or as soon thereafter as she can get away, because the Northwestern company has no other boat available for that date, everything possible be- ing slated for the June run to Nome, the Yucatan among others. The crip- bling of the steamer Northwestern leaves the company one vessel shy of it's calculations for the summer.
 The Saratoga sailed from Seattle May IS at a. m. aud seems likely to make a record trip although she spent nearly a day at K&talla, where she dis charged 400 tons of freight. She brought 10000 feet of bridge timber to Seward for the railroad and a small general cargo. Her passenger list was twenty-three cabin and nine steerage.
