 While making the turn to enter the mouth of Snake River. the channel running parallel with the beach instead of straight into the sea. a large wave struck the Defiance and knocked her sideways. Before she could recover and scoot into the river she grounded, and the passengers had to jump ashore.

SEEN AND HEARD

Manager E. R. Jordan, who is in stalling a dredge a few miles to the West of Nome returned yesterday from weeks trip up the coast where he has been on a business trip, delivering hydraulic pipe he had on hand. Mir Jordan made the trip on a saddle horse from the Red barn and found that was an easy way of getting over the country.
 Within few minutes after the ac- count of Dunham's horse being lost strayed or stolen appeared in the Mug get. word was received that the animal was located on Nugget Gulch. It takes a little printers ink in a real live paper to get results.
 The Meteor arrived in the offing this morning at 7:3O, steamed along parallel to the coast line, sizing up the situa- tion then headed out into deep water. blowing her whistle, just to let us know she was here and wanted to unload her passengers.
 The twenty odd people aboard the tug must be anxious to get ashore, but the surf was boiling too hard this morning for a boat to put to sea and get them.
 The calendar up at the District Court Is getting pretty we'll cleaned up and the court will take recess in few days.
 The largest case on the calendar, being the damage suit for 10000 against the Scandia Mining Syndicate by the administrators of the two un- fortunate miners who were killed in the drift about a year ago, was non suited after the plaintiffs put in all their evidence. Thursday evening Ira D. Orton and O. ID. Cochran, at the night, session made lengthy and able arguments for a non-suit on behalf of the defendant and Friday morning, after taking the matter under advise ment over night. Judge Murane sus- tained the motion and granted a non- suit
 The first clean-up from the Wild Goose dredge over in the Council dis trict arrived in Nome a day or two ago. and the dredge is making a fine showing according to reports
 Since the rain commenced to fall the miners have been getting out into the hills to work and there being lots of water in all the gulches, mining will be carried on with night and day shifts. so long as the water lasts.
 Art Gibson, the engineer returned from Hobson Creek a few days ago Where he has been laying out the work for installing the mammoth siphon across the Hobson Creek Val ley that will in time handle the ten thousand miners inches of water to be brought over from the Grand Central.
 Fred Cowden. the efficient deputy recorder, made a trip of about eventy- five miles the latter part of last week and the first of this. He went over to the Osborne Creek dredge. on up to the head of the river then back over toward the head of Nome River, on into the Sinrock or Stewart River country and back to Nome. He was tired enough to be contented at his work of sitting down and recording in- struments up at the recording offices, after he returned.
 People are now enjoying fresh rein deer meat, luxury that could not be had out in the states at this season of the year.
 The protracted southeaster did very little damage this time and should the storm moderate the shipping could be resumed upon short notice.

and nothing makes him more peev1sh
than useless stop that will cause
him to whip his engine up and
down grade In order to make up the
lost minutes. He pulls, with the help
of engine No. 1882, the fast train that
comes up out of Texas on the stroke
Of midnight, and roars across the
state of Oklahoma by the time the
sun is a few degrees above the prai-
rie skyline. He insists with the pla-
cid insistence of big man that he
arrive at the end of his run on time.
His fireman suffered grievously be-
fore the days of the coil burners" be-
cause of this ambition.
They were showing the telegraph
poles behind them at the even rate
of 55 miles an hour one summer morn
ing about two years ago. Leaving
the junction north of one of their few
stops they raced across the outskirts
of the Darlington reservation, climbed
to the crest of Okarche Hill and set
tied back on either side of the cab
to watch the drivers roll" There was
nothing to keep them from tearing off
the mileage between Okarche Hill
and the Cimmaron river at the rate
of go miles an hour or upward. Just
why he did it, the engineer could
never tell, but his hand suddenly shot
out, seized the throttle, shut off the
steam, and an instant later set the
air brakes. The heavy train Jared
to a stop, while the fireman looked
wonderingly at him from across the
cab Without saying word, Darst
swung down from the cab and ran
forward along the track. A few feet
away from the engine pilot he saw
the crumpled body of man lying be-
tween the rails
When the train crew came running
forward few moments later the en-
gineer confded to the little group
that something" had made him stop
in spite of the fact that he had not
caught sight of the body till he was
within a few feet of it. In the mean
time frantic dispatcher was trying
to get a message to train No. 12 with
the highly important information that
the bridge over Dover creek was in
bad shape and that speed of all trains
would be reduced to IL miles an
hour over that suddenly important
culvert. The unusual stop gave him
time to receive and forward that mes
sage to the now belated train. The
train was saved from the conse-
quences Of dilatory track walkers
carelessness by the few minutes lost
in stopping and picking up the body
found on the right of way.

Train Stopped by Mouse.

On the Italian lines an electric ap-
paratus, upon the departure of train
from any station, rings six strokes
upon a gong in the next station. The
station master at Capri, hearing three
strokes when there should have been
six, Immediately came to the conclu-
sion that there was something wrong
on the line, and ordered up the cleo
trio signals of warning. The train,
which by this time was under full
headway, came to dead stop. Then
began a transfer of telegraph mes
sages. The passengers were anxious
to know what was the matter. They
waited while the messages went back
and forth. The inquiry established
the fact that everything was right on
the line, and the train was ordered
forward after a considerable delay.
The station master about this time
thought it might be well to look into
his gong, and there he found stuck
fast between the cogs of the electrical
apparatus a poor little mouse. The un-
happy animal happened to be in the
interior of the clock when it struck
one" and down he attempted to run,
but was caught between the murder
Gus wheels. His little body was big
enough to stop the whole apparatus
and so to stop the train as well-Ex-

Seal Found on Track.

peculiar accident occurred in Cal
ifornia last week when a young fat
and lazy seal basking in the sunshine
on the railroad track stopped an in
coming train at Los Angeles At a
point where the seal was basking the
track was clear and the engineer was
able to observe it without running
over it. The train was stopped. The
engineer and brakeman captured the
seal, placed it in the baggage car and
brought it to the depot. The animal
was found several miles from the near
est water. The railroad officials sur
mise the seal was carried out to dry
land by an extraordinary high tide
from the Pacific, and that when the
tide went out it was unable to find its
way back to the water.

EngIand's Oldest School.

A controversy has arisen in England
as to which school has the right to
claim greatest age. There are two
schools which were founded in the
early part of the seventh century-the
Kings school, Rochester, and the
Kings school, Canterbury. Justus, on
his appointment to the see of Roches-
ter in 604, made provision for a school
in connection with the cathedral. Au-
gustine established the Canterbury
school about the same time. St. Pc
ter's at York dates back to the elev-
enth century.

Explaining the "Tips."

Those ghostly tips" that come out
of the dark and are so we'll known to
all railroad men, are explained in vari-
Gus ways by the different cults and
schools of the occult. Dreams and fore
warnings are placed in the same class
by those who argue that there is some
thing supernatural about these occur
rences. The scientist gropes through
the galleries of the brain, the known
clue that will enable him to lay down
the laws that govern these weird mani
festations of the so-called sixth
sense" He is not satisfied with the
evasive answer that it is some super
natural quality that does these things.
Literature is full of well-authenticate
instances of premonition and forewarn-
ing. Every day life is full of it, and it
is not at all uncommon to pick up
paper and find that the victim of an
accident had told some friend or mem
Der of his family that he feared death
or injury on that particular day. The
records of the various societies that
are devoted to the running down of SUI
pernatural instances are filled with
wellauthenticated cases of the sort.
War time literature is especially rich
in cases of forewarning where men
ordinarily untouched by the fear of a
battles chances have spoken to their
comrades of the inevitab ableness of death
in the next engagement So many I'M
doubted cases of premonitory warnings
of this sort have occurred that they
form literature all by themselves.
