SARDsHIPs IN FROZEN NORTH
Bishop and Missionary In Yukon for
Days In 6Iizzard-Eat Mocca-
sins to Sustain Life.

Dawson, Yukon Territory.-How the
standard bearers of the church keep
ever in the vanguard Of civilization.
Drawing wilderness and sea and arc.
TIC night In the fight to plant the cross
at the outposts Of the world, was
given emphasis here by the return of
Bishop I. o. Stringer Of the Yukon
diocese of the Church of England,
from Fort MACPHERSON, at the mouth
OF the Mackenzie river.
The bishop almost had been given
up for lost by his friends. He and
Charles F. johnson, q missionary, left
The fort September 1, hoping to cross
to the head of Porcupine river in time
to reach the Yukon last fall by canoe.
Their plans did not develop, and they
encountered hardships as great as
those experienced by arctic explorers.
Each man lost so pounds in weight.
Owing to frozen rivers, they had to
walk back to Fort Macpherson from
the head of Pell river.
They had little food and were un-
prepared in other ways for the trip.
For Is days they walked in binding
fog and storm and bitter cold. Their
supplies gave out, and for many days
food was doled out a handful a day
just sufficient to keep energy alive.
Toward the last Of the terrible jour-
ney they were compelled to take of
their mocassins and "mucklocks" and
eat them. Each day they were able
to walk less than the preceding day,
and when they stumbled into an In
dian camp they had almost given up.
At the camp the friendly Indians
supplied them with rations and they
started out again. They reached Fort
Macpherson in safety.
Johnson remained there. After the
rivers were frozen solid the bishop,
with two Indians, started out again
for Dawson and came through with
out further difficulty.

Long ENGLISH HOLIDAY.

London.-With few exceptions the
wholesale houses allowed their EN-.
ployes a holiday Of four and one.half
days for Christmas. A canvass made
by the Early Closing association in
the principal trades shows that most
of the firms closed their doors at noon
on Friday and did not resume busi.
ness till the following Wednesday
This affects principally the hardware
dry goods, iron and paper interests
Many other houses also agreed to the
project. The retail houses. however
kept open because Of the holiday rush.

WORSE THAN DEATH
THE FATE OF RUSSIAN POLITICAL
PRISONERS.
Once lmmured In the Fortress Of
Schluesselburg They Leave It Only
for Real Instead of Mock
Grave.

In the middle of the River Neva,
where it flows out of Lake Ladoga,
there lies a tiny island surrounded on
three sides by the turbulent waters of
the river and hemmed in upon the
fourth by the cold and stormy lake.
Upon this island stands a very an
cient fortress Enclosed by high walls
more than twenty feet in thickness.
This is the fortress of Schluesselburg.
Day and night s%entinels relieved
every two hours pace around the top
OF these walls, keeping a vigilant
lookout on every hand. No one from
within the fortress, not even the sol
diers or gendarmes, is allowed to COM
municate with the people who dwell
upon the banks of the river. If the
unwary fisherman chances to drift in
his boat too near the walls of the for
tress, says McClure's, he is greeted
by the shout of a sentinel, aiming his
rifle:
Away! Or I shoot!"
Not even the Dead sea in the deserts
Of Asia is so utterly isolated and cut
of from the living world as is this
fortress of Schluesselburg, which lies
within 40 miles of st. Petersburg.
They are very ancient, the high
walls Of the fortress. In many places
they r cracked from old age, and in
the cracks little trees have taken
root. They look sullen and ominously
silent, as If they hid dark and grue-
some secrets. And in truth in the
whole world there are no other walls
that have witnessed so many trag.
edies as those of the fortress OF
Schluesselburg.
The regime and the aspect of the
prison were carefully thought out and
planned, being, as the ministers visit.
ing the schluessburg repeatedly de.
clared to the prisoners, intended to
demonstrate to them that it was de-.
stined to be their grave. The cells
were constructed in such a manner as
constantly to remind the prisoners OF
a tomb. The stone floors were paint.
ed black and the walls dark gray.
The window panes were opaque, Sc
that no ray Of sun ever penetrated
within the cells and no trace of color
from without could be caught by the
prisoners. The iron bedstead was
turned up by day and chained against
the wall, and only a little stool, also
fastened in its place, allowed the
prisoners an occasional rest from the
incessant stride backward and for.
ward across the floor of the cell.
This pacing back and forth was in
fact the only diversion permitted to
the prisoners. No books were given to
them except the Bible, which they
had already learned from cover to
cover in the fortress of Saints Peter
and Paul, no work for their hands, no
color for their eyes, no sound for their
ears.
Cut of from the living world, buried
In the black stone cells, clothed in
the dingy prison garb, with one sleeve
black, the other yellow, they strobe
to and fro from corner to corner OF
their cages. Their food was abomin.
able; bread, half raw, made of rotten
flour, and a plate of hot water in
which foated a few shreds of meat OF
the traces of an onion.

To Aid Disease Investigation,

Mrs. Francis speyer, who died a

large fortune to institutions for the
cure of disease. She left two and a
half millions to the institute bearing

also left large sums for the curing of
tuberculosis, cancer and lupus, and
provision is made for improved and
cheaper dental work for the poor.

The Most Important Man

IF you should ask your Congressman or
i Senator who was the most important man
in Washington. modesty might prevent him
from expressing his honest conviction, and he
would probably name the holder of high
office. If he was particularly frank and
thoughtful he might tell you that the most
important man in the national capital was
the Washington correspondent. And that
would be the right answer.
OF course, the Office holder is thinking how
the correspondent can influence the voters of
his district or State; which is important to
him. of course. But the real importance of
the Washington correspondent lies in the fact
that we are dependent upon him absolutely
for practically all information of what goes
on in Washington. He is eyes and ears and
understanding for the whole country. He
must decide on what is interesting and
significant. and what is not. and tell why.
in the White House. in Congress. in all the
departments.
Suppose, although it is almost impossible
even to imagine such thing, that Washing
ton correspondents should enter into con-
spiracy to act together. Why, their power
would be tremendous! They could unmake
any man simply by never letting his name ap
pear in dispatches. And it would be lust
as easy to convince the nation that another
man was truly great.
Don't YOU think you would like to know
something about these men whose work is so
familiar. and whose identity is hidden under
the familiar by our Washington Core
spOndent"?
