THE HURRYINe BARBER.
Speed Manifested More In the Motions
Than In the Results.

BARRIERS" remarked the man with
the short hair. ARE born unable to
hurry. Just you go into shop, as
did the other day, wanting a hair cut,
and ask the barber how long 1t will
take. He told me. oh, about twenty
minutesr and said to go ahead.
THAT barber honestly believed he
was hurrying, but he couldn't leave
out those little snip-snips about the
back of the neck they are all so fond
of doing. and he had to cut the hair as
if he were chiseling priceless marble.
Wien it got to be about half an hour

the case Of shaving When you tell a
barber to hurry be dashes around on
the tiled floor at imminent risk Of fail
ing. and he splashes the lather into
your eyes and your mouth, but the fact
remains that he takes as much time
as usual to rub the lather into your
face and as much time to shave you.

sort of rule regarding time that all
BARRIERS observe because | have timed
them, Once asked a barber to hurry
shaving me, and he had all the motions,

AMERICAN WANDERLUST.
4 Habit Which Strengthens the Co.

hesive Unity Of the Nation.
Less than half the members Of the
United States senate and house Of rep
resentatives are native born in the
states which they represent, Nothing
could more clearly show the 1lert ac-
tivities Of the American people and
that constant intermingling Of the in
habitants Of the several states which
adds so much to the cohesive unity of
the nation. The boy who goes to a
distant state often accomplishes more
than the one who goes straight on In
the footprints of his father in the
home village. Even Daniel Webster
was not born in the old Bay State
whose influence and dignity he so well
sustained and whose people mourned
him so sincerely when his great life
closed.
This wandering from state to state
has resulted in the organizing In New

THE ALASKA MINES

Wonderfully has Alaska come to the front since it's purchase by Uncle sam. when it was considered by man as merely an adjunct Of square miles of snow. a deplorable country which Eugene Sue selected as the resting place for his Wandering Jew. and the occupations of whose natives was. ac- cording to Bret Harte. There by day they hunt the ermine. and by night another vermin."
 Now it can boast of the Treadwcll ond many other great mines. Vast areas of gold placer mines have been discovered. some of which are about to be developed on gigantic scale by the Guggenheim ditch of the Yukon Gold company. This ditch is O be S5 miles long with flow of 10 inches of water. It is to run within six miles og Dawson and four miles or Bonanza creek. By its means creek bottoms will be dredged and hillsides mined hydraulically at the cost oi 25 cents per yard. which allows a profit in that region.
 At Dome. 2& miles from Dawson, great expectation are ottreed by a tunnel now in progress to strike the interior of mountain which is be- Ueyed to be rich in gold quartz.
 The intense cold of Alaska is said to become not unpleasant when peo- pie get used to il. and the rest oi the year is delightful The soil is deep and very fertile; vegetables and cer- calls are grown and ripen. Many pla. Ger diggings are doing we'll in various parts.
 Much is looked for in the develop. mant of great copper deposits. such as those on Prince William sound. on Eyak. Lake Cordoya and at Ellamar on Virgi& bay, where a veritable mountain of copper ore is reported. assaying as high as $5l.@O at the Ia coma smelter. On Latouche island is the Big Bonanza copper property, 50 miles east of Seward This property is also said to be a solid mountain ot ore. some shipments netting $55.75 Der ton. ,t>I
 A great necessity to Alaska has been rectificd by the discovery of coal in quantity and quality far ex' cecding expectations. Good deposits of excellent coal have been discover. ed contiguous to the Pacific and Arc tic shore lines accessible for eConom- ical transportation.
