rRuLY A TREASURE cAsKETI

TRULY A TREASURE cAsKET!"
That Alaska is destined to be the
coal producing center of America is
relatively safe prediction. Neither
in its gold nor in its fur seals, neither
in it's bountiful salmon fisheries nor
in its great forests does the real
wealth of the vast northern Territory
chiefly lie, but " its matchless coal
deposits. A wrtter in Norman p.

out of account the gold of the
Klondike and the enormous yield of
salmon, it is profitable to inquire
what Alaska is now known to mean
as a national asset.
Great Britain's total wealth is es-
timated at $SS,725, 100000, or 1890
per capita. Thrifty France, with a
much smaller population, boasts $780,
5OO,OOO,OOO, or $2O75 per capita. The
estimate for the United States is

Owen has devoted to his life's work.
Since DR.. Owen began the actual
work of excavating in the river bed,
he has bored fourteen holes, thirteen
of which were abandoned after reach
ing the rock bottom without result
But at the last attempt, which was
begun last week, a strange oaken
structure, hectagonal in shape, was
unearthed, and it is this upon which
DR.. Owen pins his faith, and which,
curiously enough, follows out almost
infinitely the details of the hiding
place supplied in the cipher.
According to DR.. owen, the latter
gives the measurement of the struc-
ture described in the cipher as Bed

lying northeast by southwest under

DR.. Owen is about forty-one feet long
by eleven wide, while the position is
identical with that mentioned in the

appear which rivet them to the tim

w. c. T. u. NOTES.

The following extract was CLEANED
from the Scientific Temperance essay
that won the national prize of $4,000.
THE user of alcohol suffers along with
other mlsfortunes from pronounced in
ability to distinguish between right and
wrong in matters offectinR him and in
which his accurate Judgement is required.
His moral sense becomes dwarfed and
his sense Of value distorted. This is an
other example of the improvement of the
mental functions. Social energy is vast
ed in two ways. One of these is thru
actual individual ineffieieney by which
great results might be accomplished for
society were total abstinence in force.
The total amount of effort which is DO
tential and yet made negative for social
purposes in indulgence IN toxic liquors
and thus absolutely lost is almost too
vast for calculation. For every individu-
aIwho INDUCES to even an appreeiabe
extent in alcoholic liquors there is a car
tain definite amount of energy wasted
and lost thru the individual disability
which results from his habit ofindulgenee."
This young man has won four essay
prizes: the Grade. High School. State
and National prize and is from California.
There is a chance for the boys and
girls of Rocky Ford to win the same
prizes.
The high school contest will take place
this friday evening at the Christian
church. A good band will furnish the
music and every one Is cordially invited
to attend the contest.
