IL Is said that man who once falls SO low as to remain In the gutter for any length of time he can never "come back" This we belieev Is true but when ono meets such characters they should treat them with compassion it Is weakness of the nerve connecting the heart with the base of the brain.
 Whenever one comes across a person who loves to dohble in mIre and watch the ooze drip drop by drop. you can take 1t for granted he or she at some time in their career widowed in the mlre of the gutter. Treat them as You would the inmates of an asylum. for they have oozeItetis Of the brain. Their system Is supersaturated SO lt requires time to shut off the spleenllke ooze ment

TRYING TO GET ALAskA's TRADE

The condition of Seattle's trade with Alaska is better this year than for some years previous The manager of one of the largest local packing houses branch of one of the biggest instItu- tions "f the kind in the world. says that his concern is shipping into the interior of Alaska fully 95 Der cent. more packing house products than last year other shipments to the interior of Alaska are in similar proportion.
 Tn" trad" of Seattle with Alaska Is one Of the biggest business assets which this city possesses and il is a trade which the rivals Of S.attIe are determined to dctach II they possibly can Portland is trying to make in- roads into the trade all the while. and san Francisco is also waking up to the valu" Of this trade anu k tp make a determined enort this year tn srcur. larger foothold In lt
 Both Portland and San Francisco think the time Is opp"rtuu, tn make an effort l." break Into Srattls's field They have reeeiyed the impression that there Is much feeling against S,- attI" in the northern territory h.,ausr this city has not interested itself sif- h,i"ntly in aiding Alaska to get re. dress for th" many grievances under which it has suffered. m. news papers in both cities are making ruuch of the alleged growth of had feeling against seattle and are urging upnu the merchant Of their cities to take fuli advantage of the opportunity and make strong efforts this year Ia de tach the Alaska trade from Seattle which owes much Of lts present busi- ness expansion ta the development of Alaska trade

 1T Homer Bounds and partner have struck new pay streak rich as they believe it means considerable to the camp. for there should b, thre, miles "t it if there Is any extvn to the run.
 The average to the pan is not up to the standard of the original third beach but appears to be in sufficient quantities to pay good returns for its extraction
 Miners who have the courage to stick to IL. and keep prospecting are liable to win out in the long run The trouble with the majority of miners IS they have not the means. nor can they spare the time.

 So that's how it happened that Johnny Cribbs, the star "portside twirler" of the Avondale Outlaws. and Willie Harty, their crack Catcher came to go with Mrs. Dolly to the game one day this week.
 Johnny and Willie had played an excep- tionsly fine Double header the day be- fore on their teams field at One Hundred and Empty Umph Street.
