SELLS-FLOTO SHOW
A DRAWING CARD

The SellsFlot show was late
in arriving yesterday morning coming
from Reno at SIS, but from the time
the train came to a standstiII until
the show left Tor Elko last night every-
thing moved off with military precis-
ion.
Large crowds were present from the
interior districts, every locality.
mining camp and town in the county
being represented. AS early as 5
O'Clock a. m. Indians took up points
of vantage along Bridge street and
waited patiently for the parade, which
made its appearance shortly after IL
O'Clock. After it had passed the
streets presented deserted appear
ance, the crowds following to the
tents, which were pitched in the neigh
borhood of the Southern Pacific stock
corrals. There they were amused un-
til the doors of the menagerie were
opened at !. BY the time the circus
performance began, at about 215, fully
5000 spectators had congregated in
the big tent, and for two hours were
entertained by the best show ever seen
in Winnemucca. Had an offer been
made for dissatisfied patrons to call
at the ticket wagon and get their mon
ey back, not one of the large audience
would have taken it up, for all were
satisfied, and it was the unanimous
verdict that it was an honest show at
honest prices.
One noticeable feature of the day was
absence of "grafters of all kinds.
Inside the tent refreshment vendors
piled their calling but theilr goods were
all sold at the ordinary ry-day
prices.
All connected with the show were
specialists, including the animals, many
of the latter exhibiting a truly human
intelligence. One of the horses danced
a two-step around the entire ring and
the herd of elephants executed the
- hoochie cooehie0 in the most ap-
proved dance hall style.
Many of the latest hits of the season
were in evidence, including airships.

Some amusing glimpses of the dis coverer of chloroform are given in the "Recollecdons of Lady Priestly," wife of Simpsons assistant at the time of the discovery "The professor" she writes, used to make his experiments with chloroform on us girls, and with some of the liquid just poured on a handkerchief would have half dozen of us lying about in various stages of sleep.

It is the act of grasping the baby under the arms, tossing the baby into the air and catching it on its down trip. while the words "Oop-de- babyg' are repeated at each toss.

.IS YOUR SILVER
 ENGRAVED?

Where can be found more genuine satisfaction than in beautiful table silver which is artistically engraved with the name or initials of the owner
 There is nothing that adds to the appearance of table, set for some special occasion like beautiful silver service, and that the choicest and most unique designs can be had right here in skagway, is well worthy of note.
 Like all the stock in the Kirmse store, the silver stock Is equalled in no other store in town, and when it is know that all engraving is done free of charge, this should be a great inducement to get what you are think ing of buying at the Kirmse store.
 It is time to think of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years dinners, and to make arrangements to have table service which will be ill keep ing with the balance of the appoint ments of your table.

Alaska is in a bad way. it's peo pie are dissatisfied and are getting out at the rate of 500 per month, ac- cording to Robin Adair, a well known Atlantan, who has been spending the summer in the cold regions of the extreme North.
 In letter to his father, pr. R. B. Adair. Mir. Adair declares that con ditious up there are deplorable, but does not go into details. As an il- Iustration of the state of affairs, he gives an insight into the cost of liv- ing by quoting few prices, as follow

MORE INSTRUMENTATION PRIN7ED
 IN THE EAST ABOUT ALASKA

Alaska is being depopulated," MT. Adair says further, at the rate of 800 month, and when you think there are only 5O,OOO population in all you will see what this means. Conditions are very bad"
 MT. Adair went ,OOO miles farther north than tourists go as a rule. He found the climate splendid, the ther- mometer ranging around 50 degrees. However, this, says Mr Adair, made it feel like Georgia on a day in July, it being very comfortable without a coat.
 He says the people of the territory are depending on Secretary Fisher, of the department of commerce and labor to give them relief, his pros pective visi being the chief topic of discussion on all hands.-Atlanta Constitution

Ronss strnnnsr Than Oak,

The wonderful power of bone struc- ture has been tested scientifically to show how that hollow bone bears strain. A very small bone, only one square mlllimeter LOl55 square inch) in diameter, will hold thirty-three pounds in suspension without break ing, while piece of the best oak of the same thickness will hold up only twenty-two pounds. The bone is therefore half again as strong as the solid oak, thus showing that nature is economical in the weight given to bones, making them hollow and at the same time makes them stronger than if they were solid and much heavier. This principle has been recognized in mechanics, engineers using hollow steel tubes instead of solid to meet great strain.-New York World.
