ing their success in feasting and games. Football is a great game with them, but the skin dance" is most interesting to the whites and the Eskimos indulge in that pastime almost every pleasant evening after the salmon fishing and berry picking is over. large dried skin of the "oogruk" is used. with hand holds all around the edge. Men and women take hold of the skin and the performer stands in the middle of 1t and is tossed into the air The aim of the dancer is to alight on his or her feet after every toss and avoid failing. It requires great deal of agility and skill Some of the performers are quite expert. notably Mollie Hobson. killowarok and Micky Thomas. Alex Smith and Jimmy Callahan are quite agile for old codgers. but they are not in the same class with the above men tioned Eskimo experts. However they are rivals as to ability and we may bring off a match between them ere long. Molly Hobson makes the claim that she can skin any white man on the Inmachuk at the skin dance" game
 Hank Fries has has put his affairs into the hands of Dave Chase. who will act as agent until Mir Fries return next spring. Mir. Fries has been his ditch work. He will have the Inmachuk turned out of its bed next summer and expects to install a dredge.

 Well We have had our rains and they are apparently over with. Some aper- ators have been greatly benefited and others injured. But on the whole. the gold output has been largely aug mented.

GUARDING THE KING.
Old English Methods Wher the Nom
arch Was Taken Sick.


The law raises peculiar safeguards
round the person Of the English SOW
ereign in case of sickness. They are
mere survivals in the present settled
order of government, but at one time
the opportunity which the kings ill.,
capacity afforded aspirants to the
throTe or treason makers to shorten
his Gays at minimum of risk of de-
tectijn made the precautions reason
able.
"If the king be taken sick" says
Coke in his Institutes" there ought
to be warrant issue from the privy
council, addressed to certain physi-
clans and surgeons, authorizing them
to administer to the royal patient po-
tones, syrupos, laxitavas, medicinas,
etc. Still, none of these should be Civ
Ell except by consent and advice of
the council and they ought to set
down in writing everything done and
administered, and they should COM
pound all drugs themselves and not in
trust their preparation to any apothe-
cary"
Coke wrote thus of precedent in the
year 1910, and today the law is practi-
cally as he found it, although at the
present time in practice the privy coun-
Gil simply hears reports Of the progress
of the kings lnalady and leaves actual
treatment entirely to the physicians in
direct charge of the case.-EXchange.

ParSon Saunders was little per.
turbed one Sunday morning over some
worldly matter and made Il mistake
in the reading Of the Scriptural les,
sons. He read the second lesson
where he should have read the first
AS he nearod the end Of his reading
the parson saw that he was in error
He saw that his congregation knew
he was in error. How, then, to con.
clude? TO conclude in the orthodox
way-"here endeth the second lesson
would hardly do, as it was not the sec
ond lesson, but the first. Nor, could
it, on the other hand. be called the
first lesson. since properly it was the
second? Parson Saunders. after a mo-
ment's thought. wisely and frankly
concluded:
Here endeth the wrong lesson."-

Fifty years ago there was some ex-
cuse for bad roads for our country
was poor. Now it is rich. there is no
excuse. A good road is always to be
desired and is a source of comfort and
convenience to every traveller. Good
roads attract population as we'll as
good schools and churches. Good roads
improve the value of property. SO that
it is said farm lying five miles from
market connected by a bad road is
Of less value than an equally good
farm connected by good road. A
larger load can be drawn Ey one horse
over good road than by two over a
tad one. The Athena Weston district
is setting the pace in good road max
ing in this part of the state.

According to the census Athena 'f

dissatisfaction in regard to the cen

Seepage from the government canal
has damaged property in the town of
Stantleld and vicinity to some extent
and the owners have taken the mat.
ter up with the government officials at
Hermiston. These officials have TAX
on the complaints under advisement
in what seems to be an entirely arbi-
tIaIy manner. The allegations of the
Stantield property owners seem to have
been met with denials and counter
charges. The government reclamation
service is not in the habit of destroy
ing one enterprise to build up another,
and it is safe to predict that Stanfeld
will receive the relief she rrsys for.

Rowdyism in London theaters was a
common occurrence in the old days, as
Is shown by the following from the
London Post of Oct. q, 179S:
1.-TWO men in the pit at Drury Lane
theater last night were so turbulent
and ri0tous during the last act of
Henry " that the performance was
interrupted upward of quarter Of an
hour. The audience at last asserted
their power and turned them disgrace
fully out of the theater. This should
always be done to crush the race of
disgusting puppies that are con-
stant nuisance at the playhouse every
night"
