CAN KEEP THE CHANGE

For what effect 1t may have on those Alaskaus who live iu Seattle this sort of 'qnIormation" is being sent to the Seattle Times. It is only part of what effects to be report oI the Corsou "mass" meeting the other night, the chill of which meeting sat upon this town for days. Under a Skagway date of June IS, the dispatch to tue Times says:
 Practically every voter in and around Sksgway attended the Corson mass meeting here. The Nome man made a strong plea for home rule and the inter- ests of the north, as @ result of which he won many converts to his support.
 Mayor Chris Shea, formerly a Gale leader, presided at the Corson rally and Is now one of the republican candidates most enthusiastic advocates. Skagway has been regarded as the Gale hotbed in this part of Alaska; but there has been decided change of political senti- ment SO that Corson is sure to carry the town with a majority over all of his opponents.
 Mir, Corson can keep the change-of political sentiment he wrought.

TOLSTOI ON LOVE

Thirty years ago Tolstoi wrote 8 book which startled the religious world, says an exchange. He called h"My Religion and iu 1t he advocated principle for the regeneration of socIety-"Love one another"
 Ever since he wrote that book he has been battling with men and women, trying to persuade them to take the priucepla on faith and to prove 1t by practice.
 He has met all arguments against the practcalness of the principle and still the same old rebuttals come from his opponents and detractors.
 But, at last, in this year, he has orig mated a new method by which to prove the truth of his principle.
 The trouble has been that in the past he has asked society to begin at the highest and most difficult point to apply the principle "Love one another"
 1T you will test the practicalness and worth of tbis law and love, he says, be- gin at the lowest point. In his own words:
 "Treat not even COW or 8 dog harsh Iy, but treat them kindly and affection ately, and love in this way for day or two, or more, as au experiment, and compare the state of your soul with what it was before. Make the experi- ment, and you will see how, instead of & surly, angry and depressed condition, you will be bright, merry and joyous. Live thus O second and third week and you will see how your spiritual gladness will ever grow and grow, and not only will your work not fall into disorder, it will but prosper more and more.
 With the success Of the principle of love tested and proved in the lower sphere, we may have hope to prove 1t in the higher sphere. The first duty Is to believe aud prove:
 "Tes. it," says Tolstol, Resolved for a certain period to live 80 as in all things 10 remember first of all with every man-tbiei, dranksrd, rough officer or depeudent-not to swerve from love; that is to say, iD the busi- ness you have with him; to remember his ueed rather than your own. And having so loved for the appointed term, ask yourself: was it hard for you and have you injured or bettered your life? And i1 accord with the result of your test. decide whether it Is true that the practice Of love gives welfare iu life, or whether that is so only iu words"
 Certainly, there is a sweet reasonable ness iu Tols,oi's new method of testing the truth Of the law of love. For if one cannot practice the law with the lower creatures, how can one make it work  with ones teIIow-just as in the words of the New Testament, eff a man can

The Fickleness of a Woman.

Some years ago when Miss Chrys-
tai Herne was playing summer en-
eaeement in Washington, She made
the acquaintance Of the young daugh-
ter of a western senator. The ac-
ouaintance ripened into intimacy.
Miss Herne and Lucile-such was the
young lady's name-corresponded re-
eularlv after the formers departure
from tie capital and the western
eirl kept her stage friend informed
Of all the gossip and news of their
friends.
Not very long ago Miss Horne re-
ceived note from Lucille in which
she announced her approaching mar
riase. Miss Herne replied at once
heartily congratulating her and
wishing her every happiness. Two
months later Lucille wrote to say that
she had discovered that she could
not be content to pass her remaining
davs with the gentleman whom she
had named and had learned to love
another. Their marriage had been
set for an early date,
Miss Herne replied that she had
every confidence in the judgment OF
her friend, moralized a bit concern
ing how much better it was to dis
cover these things before rather than
after marriage and once more eS-
pressed her warm wishes for the tu-
ture happiness Of her friend. Than
three days ago Miss Herne received
another letter from the interesting
Lucille. This time there came the
news that the second engagement had
been broken. Yet there was a sort
of nil disperandum in her nature,
for she announced at the same time
her engagement to a third man.
At first Miss Herne was rather
stunned, tnen humor Of the sltua-
ton came to her. She took her pen
in hand and wrote carefully a few
lines which he dispatched to Wash
ington:
my Dear Lucille:
IT desire to congratulate you on
your approaching marriage with

Here Miss Herne placed an aSter-
