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 a 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 originally made for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 century ago. was present
ed by Warren Hastings to Tippoo Sa-
nib, and which was purchased at the
Londesborough sale for $4,000. The
suite consisted of card table and
sofa, two small cabinets and four arm.

itely carved. But probably the most
costly chair in the world is one of the
treasures of the shah of Persia. II

with diamonds, rubies, pearls and sap.

Fearful Loss by Chinese Floods.

Thousands of men work all their
lives at securing the banks of the
great Yellow river in China Yet
every now and then the tide sweeps
away all opposition and the loss in
human life is greater than any war
ever caused. Nineteen years ago the
river burst its bonds. Day after day
the torrent flowed, 20 miles to the
hour, 80 miles wide and ten feet
deep. The flood has been described
as that of Ave Danubes pouring from
height for two months on end For
1000 years the Chinese have been en-
banking this river. The silt which the
waters bring down from hte noun
tains builds up the bed and raises
the surface of the water. The banks
are raised higher and higher to keep
! in the water and for mile after mile
| the river runs over bed whose level
| is far above that Of the fields through
which it takes its way. But the weak
part of the embankment is always
| found out. The river always breaks
| through And then a province is
swept out of existence and people die
by millions. The death roll 10 years
ago was estimated at from 2,000,0 OC
to 100000.

AIAskA's GREAT FISH RIVER.
Nushasak the Basis Of Important Can

How many readers ever heard of the
Nushagak river. asks the Youths Com

Yet the department OF commerce and

the Nushagak furnishes Is salmon, the
taking. canning. freezing and sailing
of which is an Alaskan industry. the
importance OF which is shown by 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 Ga establishments.
which put up more than 100000
cases Low prices since then have
somewhat reduced both the number Of
canneries and the output; neverthe-
less. since canning began In Alaska.
nearly 22,000,00 cases have been sent
out In order to provide some coun-
terpoise to this tremendous drain the
packers combined to start hatcheries.
These have been carried on with inn
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
