reading, is an act of education or cul-
tivation. We are prone to measure
these things that way We say that so
and so is an educated gentleman, be-
cause, forsooth, he can translate Lat
in readily, work some problems in ge-
ometry or has passed through some
school. Every act, every earnest
thought is the fragment of an educa-
ton; while the act of reading is, in
far too many cases, intellectual dis
sipation. Baking pie, sweeping the
room, wedding the garden, are also
| acts of education and culture. Its
educative to wash dishes, dust the
china or wash off the back stoop We
pay out good money to study music,
to learn euphony and harmony, be-
cause it is SO cultured, you know; and
yet there is enphony of the low, soft
voice and the harmony of a happy dis
position and just as cultured, you
know. Education and cultivation are
disciplinary acts-and we acquire
these as readily in the preparation of
a toothsome roast as in the study of
French or German. The esthetics of
house decoration, or quilt making, or
plain or fancy sewing is as mind en-
larging as the study of the master
pieces of sculpture, painting or archi-
lecture. And the architecture of a
rice pudding or a clean, wholesome
r dinner can be made as inspiring and
uplifting as the study of the vatican or
c St Paul's.
We are not poking fun at these
r other methods of education-even if
4 they are trifle silly or far fetched.
D We say, if you have time for them,
= why acquire them. But grasp the es-
y sentials first. When man is drown
f ing he needs a rope, or the friendly
i help of a log or the arm of good
d swimmer, and not discourse on the
: glories and beauties of paradise. II
: may be well to know all about Latin
r and geometry, but it is better to know
: how to make dress, properly pre-
e pare and serve meal, dress a wound
d or relieve the agonies of a colicky
/. baby Because you will never use Lat

IS use of these latter, and you ought t.

How He Got Rich

We have record of another newspaper man retiring at the age of 50, independ- ently rich Thrift and honesty always win out. He started twenty years ago penniless and retired worth S75,OO0. He always made it point to attend strictly to business, try to please the public and paid his way as he went. with the result that he is on Easy Street for the rest his days. An uncle in the old country died recently and left him s74,55o. He sold his business for S450.-District Ledger, Fernie.

A. c. Frost, former president of the Alaska Central road, projected and partially constructed out of Seward, Alaska, has made the statement that he has discovered that J. P. Morgan & Co.,, of New York, and Charles G. Dawes, of Chicago, have been backing John k. Ballaine in the fight Ballaine has been making on the Frost manage ment of the road. MT. Frost says that the sale of the property to the Morgan interests proves the correctness of his belief.
 On the 17th inst. Henry Bratnober completed negotiations for the pur- chase of d three fourths interest in the Young mine on Chichagof island. Ed ward De Grof still retains one fourth interest. Mr. DeGroff's faith in the future of the mine is so great that he refused to dispose of his interest Bratnober is supposed to be represent ing a Bratnober syndicate, says the Skagway Alaskan. The price paid by the syndicate for it's share is not made public, but it is supposed so be more than S100OOO The Young mine was discovered about four years ago by Ralph Young and John Newell, natives, who transferred one half interest to DeGroff, Kelly and Gam ble, and under their management the mine has paid from the start. So much rich float was taken from the surface that when sacked and shipped to the shelter it paid for all the development and the installation of stamp and roller mill and electric power plant. Over Sl5O,OO0 has already been taken out.
 A representative of the Fair banks Times sends that paper the following account of conditions in the Iditarod after the freezeup: "The close of the season of navigation and the freezeup makes it possible to estimate with some degree of accuracy the num- Der of people in the camp. Counting the stampeders at the nearest points on the river, who will make their way here over the trail very soon, the number will be between l,200 and 1,5OO. Con- ditious and prospects still warrant camp of this size. On discovery there is uniform paystreak of four foot dirt running five cents to the pau. It Is all shallow, from F to IA feet iu depth. Excellent prospects are being opened up on Slate creek, and there le great activity there. Like the rest of the country it wants prospecting, and the work so far has been necessarily slow. Lots of cabins are going up on OItor and in the neighborhood. The whole country is staked from one end to the other. Everybody is satisfied that he came, and everybody is sure that the country will be winner"

 Wilson Foster, Yukon mining man, has presented to the Dominion geologi- cal survey collection of gold, topaz and opal stones valued at ten thousand dollars. The remarkable thing about the collection is that the stones were taken from the gizzards of partridge, grouse and other birds in the Yukon.
 The thirty five persons hired by the relatives of Johnny Kindokush, who was drowned in the Klehena river acci- dent, although unsuccessful, were paid 5000 for their efforts.

 Edward w. Cragin left his home in New York some five or six years ago and started for the Klondike to engage in the transportation business. His family has never heard from him since. Hop. J. Van Vechten Olcott, member of congress from a New York district, has taken the matter up. Anyone who knows of the whereabouts of Cragin will confer favor by writing either Congressman Olcott or Judge Wicker sham, care of house of representatives, Washington, D. c.
 Of John L. McGinn, probable repub- licau nominee for delegate from Alas ka, the Cordova Alaskan says: "No better candidate could be named by the republican party. Recognized over the entire territory as the ablest at torney in Alaska, he can count his friends by legions. He comes from a family of fghters-both in war and politics, having served his country in the Spanish. American war. He was as- sistant, and later district attorney at Nome, where he has considerable strength, as he also has at Fairbanks, and is we'll known throughout the dis triet. If he can be prevailed upon to accept the nomination, there can be no question but he will be elected by an overwhelming yote.@

The Cunningham coal cases being heard before the commissioner at Se- attle, are arousing a widespread inter est in the subject of the Alaska coal lands. It is alleged that these locations were fraudulent because of an agree ment of the locators to sell their pat ents. The names of many prominent citizens of the States and some of Alaska appear in the list of locators. Dr. Clifton M. Resin, one of the ten physicians sent out by the commis- sioner of education at Washington for service among the Alaska natives, says that, so far as his observations have gone tuberculosis in some form is uni yersal among the natives in this part of the territory. In some instaLces the condition is most deplorable, aud is a distinct menace to the health of the whites-Tanana Leader.
 It. was to be expected that the in- vestigation of former Judge Reid would dwindle to fizzle. The facts in the case against Reid were peddled first to the Times, and were rejected because the charges appeared to be trivial. De- vclopments apparently bear out this estimate. There is a joy in the pursuit of public malefactors, and the Times would be first in the chase; but to scare up a rabbit and call it Kodiak bear is too childish game for adult vears.-Fairbank Times.
 Steward is off the Map," jubilantly shrieks, in faring headlines, the Cor dova North Star. It is exceedingly un- kind with one fell swoop and without warning, for this splendid newspaper to thus wipe us out of existence. Ap- parently we do not realize our peril. We are going right ahead, making sub- stantial improvements, erecting new buildings, and are preparing to stay here an indefinite period. And we must confess that we have heard noth- ing yet to give us pause in these pro- ceedings Steward Gateway.
 Nenilcheck wants school for its forty-two children of school age who can neither speak nor read the English language. Nenilcheck Is the oldest town in Cook inlet, having been in ex- istence for nearly century, and has population of about 200 people. It is the only town of its kind in Alaska, or probably in this country. The inhabit- ants are all Russians or Russian cre- oles. A blue eyed, light. haired people; timid and superstitious, but kind and hospitable. Their village is situated on the east side of Cook inlet, about 75 miles north of Seldovia. Steamers never stop there, and it is away from the trail of the prospectors. Hence, very few people ever visit the place and many of the inhabitants have never seen white woman. Nenilcheck is the only real farming community in Alas ka. A herd of nearly 50 cattle is di- vided among the various families. These cattle were imported from Rus sia over 50 years ago. Each family has chickens, geese and pigs, fine gardens and hay fields. Butter, milk, eggs, meat and vegetables are traded at the village store for groceries and other necessities, and these in turn are taken by the merchants to nearby towns and sold at good profit.-Seward Gate wav.
