THE ALEUTIAN ISLANDS.
They Extend East and West For More
Than a Thousand Miles.

Few persons are aware that the
shortest route from San Francisco to
Japan is by way of Alaska. Nearly a
thousand miles are saved to vessels
trading with the orient by coastinS
along the Aleutian islands rather than
following the Hawaiian route.
The Aleutian islands, which extend
in a chain east and west for more
than a thousand miles, are inhabited
by the remnant of the Aleuts. Their
war of the revolution closed just as
the American Revolutionary war be-
gan. SO patriotic were the Aleuts, so
brave in their struggle for independ-
ence, that they succumbed to the Rus
slams only after Il conflict of nearly
fifty years, and then simply because
the race was almost exterminated in
the struggle.
While the Aleutian islands must
eventually form an important link IN
the commerce between the United
States and the orient, other islands
link our country with the vast empire
to the north In the narrow Bering
strait lie two little islands, one occu-
pied by Russia, the other by the Unit
ed States, so that citizens Of the two
great nations live on respective islands
within n few miles Of each other. -

BATHTUBs IN MEXICO.
Made of Cement, They Are Real Lux
ury In a Hot Climate.

Wy tit q i'SN
"Unless you have been in tie trop-
ics," remarked the man who had just
returned from a trip to Mexico, you
can't possibly realize how great lux
ury a cold bath can be. It's not that
the innate is necessarily warmer than
q New York summer, but the natives
have worked out the problem Of bath
ing - its ultimate conclusions. They
have invented the ideal tub.
"On the great private estates in
Mexico baths are in use today which
were hewn out Of the solid rock CEN
turies ago by slave labor They are
located for the most part in the vicin-
ity of running water and are fed by
bamboo pipes, but in many cases they
have to be filled by the old fashioned
method of carrying bucket to ana
from the spring.
"In the cities the so called stone
baths are made of cement. The resi-
dences of all we'll to do people are
provided with them, and they are
feature Of the native hotels. They are
usually about ten feet long by -FOUR
deeD-baby swimming tanks, IN fact.
"The tropical custom is to fill the
baths late at night. BY the following
morning the water will have acquired
q limpid coolness that acts like tonic
upon the body. When one remembers
that near the equator it is almost as
warm in the morning as it is at noon
and that water taken direct from the
city mains is always tepid the advan

TIGERISH TUMAS.
Wild Carnage When They Meet Their

One time at st. Clements we sighted

his place just beneath the "tlier" and
ready to seize it the moment it fell
into the water. This rarely failed.
The moment the fish began to drop the
tuna would spring at it like tiger,
turning and tossing the spume into
the air with Il splendid and electrify
ing rush, a manehver that was re-
peated all over the blue channel.
The sensational charge meant that
school of tunas had discovered school
of its natural prey, flying fishes. At
once the lust for blood and food was
on, and the carnage was the result.

Colonel Roosevelt is said to have
expressed the belief at Helena, Mon
tana, that Woodrow Wilson, governor
of New Jersey, will be the Democrat
io candidate for the presidency. Col
onel Roosevelt is clever, far-seeing
politician, not theorist, understand
ing the practical side of politics as a
postmaster of the art or science, as
one pleases, and his opinion is deserv-
ing of mature consideration. The
signs of the times. in the opinion of
the eminent gentleman from Oyster
Bay point Enthusiastically to the former
college president as the candidate.
There is no gainsaying the fact that
Governor Wilson has touched the pub
lilo imagination quite tit since he
assumed the reins of Office The chief
reason for it is that he is honest
which seems to surprise his New Jer-
sey constituents who apparently re-
gard honesty as something entirely
unusual.
