Packing a "Gat0

The killing of Sellers last week once more calls attention to the serious con- sequences liable to follow the carrying of concealed pistol, and emphasizes the fact that such practice should not be tolerated in civilized community. In an Alaskan town there is practically no use for gun, except to the man with criminal motive, and there should be no lenieucy extended by the court to those convicted of the offense.
 It is only under most extraordinary circumstances that an honest man need carry a gun, and even if these exist he should not be allowed to conceal 1t. In ninety nine cases out of one hundred it is the coward who is afraid of his own actions who stoops to the gun toting, and it is the responsibility of such that leads to most of the shootiugs.
 It has recently been suggested that the manufacture of pistols and revolv- CTS be entirely discontinued, on the score that they are of but little use, even in warfare; but this step appears d little too drastic, when it is remem- bered that it would leave the house. holder with little or no defense against burglars. It would seem that rigid enforcement of the statute which pro- hibits the carrying of concealed weap ons would amply safeguard the general public against the coward that packs 8 gat."-Fairbank Times.

A Wonderful Voyage

One of the most remarkable stories of escape from the peril of the seas is that lately recorded in Seattle paper. 1t tells of the experiences had by two Grays harbor fishermen, who were blown out to sea in fishing boat only twenty-six feet long, fitted with gaso- line engines. l. was five weeks before they again made port, and when they did it was in Hadley, Alaska, near Ketchikan.
 During those fve-weeks in their lit tie boat they encountered tempestuous weather Every attempt which they made to again reach the coast was de- feated by shifts of wind which drove them far out to sea- Starting with but weeks rations on board, their food became exhausted, and had it not been for chance encounter with sealing schooner and again with fishing yes sel from an Alaskan port, they would have starved.
 They were without charts or nauti- cal instruments, save the compass alone. The only assistance which they had in reaching port was through an obsolete chart which they procured from the sealing schooner. Yet these hardy fishermen and good seamen stuck to their craft, instead of taking refuge on either of the more seaworthy and better found vessel, which they encountered, and finally brought her safely into port.
 In this desperate voyage in tiny fishing boat they traversed some 1900 miles of stormy water. There was little good weather encountered and few favorable winds; their craft was never intended for any such lengthy voyage nor to keep the sea under such weather conditions. Their auxiliary power was of but little use, for the gasoline was soon exhausted in the attempt to make port against the heavy winds.
 Compared with such voyage as this, it would be a pleasant summer cruise, in a similar craft, to cross the Atlantic from the Azores in the region of trade winds. Yet, when a voyage across the Atlantic is taken in some small vessel, perfectly fitted for the work and well found in every respect, it is looked up on as something bordering the miracu, Ions
