work is that it has been timely AS
a fielder he has shown himself remark
ably apt. He covers a considerable
amount of ground, can get ball either
to the right or left, and his throwing
is accurate and speedy. On butned
balls he has also proved his worth, and
his style in tossing them to first while
on the run can be compared with the

cent of mountains summed by most
other tourists who value at least their

ously to scale the Gopaltenborn for

the peak, but all his efforts were vain.
The next year he returned to the at
tack and eventually by taking many
PRECAUTIONS arrived at the summit On
his next appearance at the table d. hote
he recounted his exploit to the COM
pany and informed them that he had
planted on the spot blue silk flag
containing his name embroidered in
large characters. An Englishman, who
had listened silently, rose from the Ia
BILE and marched out of the hotel. Two
days afterward parcel was deliy-
cred to the adventurous Gaul. He
opened it and found inside his blue
silk flag, which his English neighbor
at the table d'hote had won from the
peak by his own pluck and daring.

GOVERNMENT AID TO RAILROADS

Government aid to railways, ac- eOrding to the modern methods, is not to be confused with the subsidy idea, A subsidy is a gift. No repayment is ever expected, and the returns, if any, are only general. When the government guarantees to pay for a certain length of time the interest on the bonds of railways, as is proposed in the case of Alaska, the government acts simply as banker. It advances money, but not as a gift; the debt becomes a lien on the property of the roads, It is as sound in principle as the reclama- tOn practice, which ties up millions Of the government money for a time, but which in time is all returned to the treasury of the United States. The government comes out even, or ahead and has produced something for the people which is a pure profit to the naton.-Fairbanks Times.

O Poor human nature, we some times say, forgetting that through every character runs a vein of gold. Now and then kindly chance rends the base earth that covers it and shows us a hero or a heroine, But revealed or unrevealed, all human nature is rich in the possibility of greatness. Here and there we build a monument; but if for every deed of noble daring some memorial were raised, earth's monuments would be as the star of heaven or the sands of the sea; the names of the lowly and the great would stand side by side, and the name Of the mother by the name of the son. For the yalor of man is a mighty stream that all may see as it rolls through the ages, changing the face of the world, but outlines its source is a spring of couT' age rising from the secret depths of an unknown wOmau's heart.-Ex.

BOYS WATCH
 FISH SCHOOLS

It is common enough to see a boy watching cattle to keep them from strayIug. and iu days not so very long gone by it was no unusual thing for boy to be set to keep the birds on the crops. But watch boy whose duty 1t Is to keep a lookout for a school of fish and who sits In a sentry box set upon stits Is not such an everyday sight
 This particular kind of watch boy is Norwegian, the scene of his labors be- lnc the shores Of some ford of his na- tive land.
 His little sentry box is made Of wood and perched high upon posts, Here the lad sits, gazing out across the arm of the sea, using his keen eyes for the benefit of the farmers who are depending upon him to give the alarm when a school of fish shall appear. They work contentedly enough in their fields, secure in the belief that their watch boy will let them know when it is time Co reap harvest from the sea instead of from the land.
 When the signal is given they leave their work, throw their big nets over their shoulders and hurry or to their boats.
 Sentinel boxes similar to those em- ployed in Norway were in use among the fishermen on the shores of the Mediterranean, and it Is supposed that the vikings brought back with them from some of their piruJical raids the idea chat has been put iu practice ever since -You'H.s Companion.

THE COMMISSION FA0.

Before the President made that speech, and before he suggested a commission for the government Of Alaska, indifference toward home rule was about as common as the feeling that home rule with limited powers would be satisfactory, The mere mention of the name "commis- sion" was the pressing of an cleo tric button. It united the whole ter. gitory under the home rule standard, and what is more, those who former ly would have been content with limited home rule are now ready to fight for the whole apparatus of a territory in full standing. As the resolution passed by the Fairbanks mass meeting puts 1t, we say that it Is necessary that congress shall and We respectfully petition the congress to create an elective territorial Iegis- lature in Alaska with the legislative power and authority conferred upon such legislatures in territories,-Fair- banks Times.
