MINER AND MERCHANT

The Fairbanks Hines during the re. cent difficulty with the miners in the Panama tried to occupy a middle rOsI ,ion-urgiug conciiatiOa and arbitra- tiOu. The merchants took sides ln this case so pronouucedly against the Vest ern Federation of Miners that they grew impatient and bitter at the Times for it's course and withdrew their ad- vertising,
 Now DO merchant is compelled to ad vertise when he does pot wish to, nor in a newspaper which he feels to be against his interests. It is as free a country to advertisers as 1t Is to labor. CTS who do not wish to labor at any par tlcular job. But ,he Times had been considered sufficiently good medium for these merchant before the strike.  An outsider, reader of the Times, can not detect that it favored the strikers especially their methods of violence, but rather sees a policy of temporising, The merchants thus are seen to have employed the methods of the miners which they were so opposed to, 10 bull doze newspaper into doing a thing that was not according to it's conscience or it's duty as il saw that duty or, say, It's own best interests. What Is wrong on the part of the miner cannot on the part of the merchant be right. Mark that.

ALASKA AND THE YUKON
 IN JUST \ LINE OR TWO

Casey Moran, one of the vigorous newspaper men of the Tapaua country, summarizes the prospects of the far North by saying tha; 100000 men can not prospect the district thoroughly In ten years.
 Robert w. Service, the bard of the Yukon, whose verses ol the North have been read by every Alaskan and Klou. diker, will shortly move to Dawson to continue his work.
 Bids have been secured through the ouartermaster department of the U. 8. army for a aat bostomed, light draft river steamboat for use on the Yukon. The boat is intended to supply the gov. erument along that stream.
 Ms. English, Kotchikan lady, whose husband was drowned a week or two ago. is displaying commendable grit aud determination by taking over her husbands's logging contract, and undertaking to fulfill its conditions.
 "It Fairbanks does not send out sl5,, 100000 the coming season 1t will be because we have not men enough tc work the ground" said volney Richmond, manager of tte Northern Commercial company iu the TananG valley.

When Mr.. sankey First Sang the
Famed "kinety and Nine"

The story Of Ninety and Nine" the
well-known hymn the music for which
Mr.. Ira D. Sankey improvised in burst
of deep feeling, was told by Rev. Dr.
C. E. Locke, at the funeral of Mr..
Sankey. The evangelist had found a
little poem, "The Lost Sheep" in a
Scotch newspaper. SO runs DR.. Locke's
account in the Brooklyn Eagle, and
had clipped it. One night in Edin-
burgh Mr.. Moody asked him to sing.
Mr.. Moody had just finished his SER
mon, The Good Shepherd" Mr..
Sankey had no thought of composing
a new song. but as he used to tell the
story:
"As l sat at the organ my fingers
fell on fiat and my eyes fell on that
little poem. l began to sing, and
sang the words of that poem"
When he had finished, Mr.. Moody
rushed down from the platform and
asked him where he had found that
song. He said 1t was the most won
derful song he had ever heard. Mr..
Moody was weeping, Mr.. Sankey was
weeping and the audience was in
tears, 80 great was the impression
produced by the song.
Il sang 1t as God gave 1t to me-"
Mr.. Sankey replied. He never changed
note of the song from the time it
fell from his lips.-Youth's Companion.

BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA.

1t is well known that the waters
of the Dead Sea are much heavier
than those of the ocean. This is due
to the great amount of salt held in
solution. A few years ago Mr., now
Sir Gray Hill, of England, made trial
Of swimming in the sea and then in
the Jordan, to compare the two. He
tells the result in his book, with
the Beduins:"
Many tourists while at Jericho
bathe in the Dead Sea and the Jor-
dan, and for very shame / could not
pass by without doing so. But MY
experience was peculiar. | had with
me one of the Jericho sheiks and
one of the muleteers, and we rode
first to the Dead Sea. Its waters
are generally perfectly still and Of
splendid blue color; but now, ow-
ing to the storm, they were very
rough, the waves ran high, and for
some two hundred yards from the
shore were of an ugly brown.
looked askance at it as I un-
dressed, but felt bound to go in. The
waves very promptly knocked me
down, and filled my mouth, nose and
eyes with their strong brine. Again
I tried, and again, picking up one
after another of the bare branches
of trees which are carried down by
the Jordan and washed on to the
shores of this strange lake, with
which l tried to steady myself as |
walked in. But the force of the
waves, aided by the great floating
power of the water. twisted the
branches out of my hands, and
knocked me down time after time
until, feeling that I had done enough
for principle, acknowledged that the
victory did not lie on my side, and
scrambled out, smarting most un-
pleasantly.
Then we galloped on to the Jor-
dan, where thought ! should sue
coed better. So I cast about for a
suitable place to jump in. for did

wanted to take header. So pro-
curing long stick, l assembled the
stream little, and made sure by
sounding with 1t of deep spot under
an overhanging tree.
In I plunged, intending to swim
down to the regular bathing place,
where ! knew there must be a good
bottom for getting out. Down
came with the fast-flowing yellow
flood, striking out in the fullest en-
joyment.
But when l was just about to put
my foot to the ground, l was brought
up sharp with tremendous blow on
my right breast. If 1t had struck
me on the heart 1t would, think,
have killed me on the spot. l had
come down on to the end of stake
pointing upstream, and driven in to
mark the upper boundary of the
bathing-place, but which was hidden,
owing to the rains having raised the
surface of the river. l had some
difficulty in crawling out again, and
was black and blue in the chest for
a month afterward. There is nothing
like a little experience to teach one

went from Meadowville to Chicago
on our wedding trip" She smiled
reminiscently. "That isn't such
nice one as yours" Eugenia
squirmed in her seat by the window.
She threw Wickham a glance that
should have softened his heart, but 1t
didn't.
Are you going to live in Boston?"
the little woman was questioning.
And Wickham, with a charming bow,
acknowledged that they were.
He looked at Miss Harmed. He de-
cided all at once that he wanted a
smoke. He bowed himself off as
smoothly and as quickly as possible.
BY the time he had reached the
smoker he had forgotten all about
cigars. His face betrayed unusual
perturbation of mind, and he adjusted
his hat several times before it rested
entirely to his satisfaction. He was
conscious that he had gone too far
with Miss Harmed, and he had the
uncomfortable thought that she
would never forgive him. And
through all he knew he should be
proud of Miss Harmed IL she were ac-
tually his wife.
His wife! The mere thought had
all the flavor of widest romance. To
the mans man-to a digger of old
Gothic roots-the first realization of
femininity as potent force in life
struck him broadside with a force
that made him gasp. His wife! Why
not? He started up with his chin out,
full light of determination In his
eye-he would go and ask her now.
And he swung down the aisle.
Miss Harmed was being entertained
by the little woman in the brown al
paca dress. She looked tired and
cross, and red spot glowed in either
cheek. He ignored the little woman,
who looked up brightly at him, but
went on talking, and, leaning over
toward Miss Harmed, he said steadily:
"Come on out here; I want to talk
with you"
She threw him glance that was
half scorn, half entreaty.
"Then they all got the measles and

tracing the attention of the passen-
gers, but she ignored him. He fell
to wondering If she would forgive
him for the embarrassment of the
evening before, and remembered that
he had not asked for pardon. She
seemed unconscious of his gaze, and
he watched the sensitive outlines OF
her face vary in expression. Really,
she was very interesting. The brown
of her dress just matched the sheen
of her hair and eyes. He found him
self adjusting his panama on his
blond head, squaring his shoulders
that had been broadened by rowing
in the Harvard crew. II only they
had not been thrust together under
such trying circumstances! He met
her eyes and looked at her till she
spoke.
"And you are such a woman-hater,
too" she said.
"Oh, but I'm mott" He flashed itout
and smiled dazzlingly at her to see
the light in her eyes. Truly, Wick
ham was waking up. "Some women,
perhaps; but certainly not of YOU"
"Oh, your husband has found you,
| see!" exclaimed thin, little voice.
And Wickham turned to see moth
erly person beaming upon them with
kindly eyes. He bent toward Miss
Harmed with the least bit of wicked
| CLEAN in his eyes.
"Well have to stick it out to the
end," he said.
ITO Boston," she corrected.
Madam, won't you be seated?"
He rose and bowed gravely to the odd
little person in brown alpaca dress.
She slipped into the seat shyly, her
thin, worn hands lingering pleat
down the front of her dress. Her
eyes redeemed her plain face; they
grew large and almost wistful as they
looked at Miss Harmed.
"You must be SO happy" she said,
her voice lingering over the words.
Eugenia Harmed flushed crimson.
Pardon me-" the little woman
hastened TO add. 81 know just how
you feel; it is all so new and-won-
derful. And you can't hardly realize
that it is all true yet-that you've
got each other" She looked from
Miss Harmed to Wickham. That
wicked person returned the glance
steadily and smiled.
Exactly" he agreed.
Il remember when John and
were married." she continued. we
