SUFFERS PROPOSAL

The proposition which has been made
by Congressman Sulzer that Alaska
should be divided into three portions
with much advantage is, it. appears,
meeting with approval on the Outside.
Ketchikan papers extrolled the plan to
the skies, and it would seem to be ac-
ceptable even in unexpected places. 1t

vantage, it would increase the number

Details have been received Of the
loss of the power schooner F. s. Red
field on August q on Cape Prince Of
Wales, which is the point Of land Of
the American hemisphere nearest to
Asia. The Redfeld went on a sandy
beach during a violent storm. On &C.
count Of the surf it was impossible to
lower boat.
An Eskimo named Enlk devised a
plan Of escape. Taking sealskini. he
inflated it, attached a rope to it and
threw it overheard to be washed ashore
oy the sea. Natives on the beach pick
ed up the sealskin and the rope and the
people on the schooner were hauled
ashore over tackle rugged by the sail

best agricultural possibilities of any

said. ''There are a number Of home
steaders there and they have raised,
successfully, barley, rye, oats and all
the common root crops. d
"The idea that oats or wheat will
not ripen in Alaska, in my opinion is
erroneous. There are some splendid
gardens on Chicaloon and Matanuska
rivers The valleys are wide and the
loan is deep. There is not much rain
fall, and there is really splendid
chance for irrigation. @a
All kinds of vegetation is rank and
this probably is the reason why there
is so much wild game in that section.

AURORA BoREALIs

The phenomena known as the aurora
borealis, visible in the northern heav-
ems especially during the winter
months, has long been the subject of
discussion among men of a scientific
turn Of mind. When a chechaco comes
to town, it is favorable pastime for
congenial spirits who enjoy a josh, to
tell Of the "hlssing' Of the aurora
A scientific explanation of this phe
nomena is given, not only for the
knowledge and benefit of the chechaco
but the sourdough as well, because he
knows as little of this strange visitor
in the heavens as the new conner. He.
has observed the wondrous beauty OF
the appearance; the chechaco has not.
This is the only difference.
This phenomena in nature occurs
when the mologifastic temperature Of
the horizon is such as to caloricize the
impurient indentations Of the hemis-
pheric analogy, the thorax curbistum
becomes surcnargeu Win lnnnlCeslmals
which are thereby deprived of their
issural dispositions. This effected, a
rapid change takes place in the thorum-
bumpter of the gaseous palerium,
which causes change in the eonvalvu-
lar Of the hexagonial antipodes of the
terrestrial aqua versula. The clouds
then become mass Of deoderized
speculate Of cirmocular light, which can
be seen only when it is visible. Thus
is the aurora borealis formed Thus is
disclosed an arcana coelestia- Seward

A ROUGH JOKE

on the steamer Northwestern was w.
E. Smythe, the newspaper correnpond-
emit, friend and booster OF Clifford
Pinchot, who at that time, was on the
way to tl.3 Matanuska coal fields.
Some congenial spirits, always prepar-
ed to job somebody, were fellow pas
sengers, and they put their heads to-
gether to put one over on the Pinchot
man. AS the big steamer was pulling
out from Ketchikan, a small boy ran
down the dock, yelling at the top Of
his voice, "a cablegram for Smythe. "
Smythe heard the cry, and yelled to
the captain to stop the ship. But the
skipper failed to give ear to the ap-
peal. The small boy succeeded in get
ting the precious missive to Smythe,
however, and in the presence of the
assembled crowd of passengers the
newspaper man s eye hastily scanned
the contents. "My God! They have
assassinated Pinchot!'' he cried, and
read, in effect, as follows:
"Seward, Sept. 13.-After address
ing an angry mob Of miners and pros
pectors at Glacier creek last night, Gift
ford Pinchot went out for walk. He
had not returned this morning, and
it is believed that he has met with foul
play or wandered away and is lost,
or was killed by brown bear. People
here give credence to the belief that
he has been assassinated
But four Of the passengers were in
on the joke The rest took it serious
ly and gave expression to their views
according to their sentiments Smythe
fastened to the wireless operator 8
room and sent messages to his papers
and sought further information from
Seward. No news was forthcoming.
A day passed by, and the fate of Pin
sation. That night one Of the jobbers
sought Smythe, who passed the greater
part of his time in the wireless man g
room, and told him that the passengers
had decided to have, in the social hall,
something in the nature of a memorial
service over Pinchot, and suggested
that he give the principal address els
this jokes' queried Smythe. "Cer-
tainly not said the jobber. "Know-
.nrr ~
friend of the departed, I naturally
came to ask you to speak few words
in his memory Smythe consented
and repaired to the social hall, where
all of the passengers had assembled.
The newspaper man is fine public
speaker In glowing terms, he praised
the high qualities Of the deceased, re-
citing his disinterested efforts in the
people 8 behalf. Before he had com
pleted his eulogy, nearly all of his aud
itors were in tears. One of the jobbers
was asked to speak. The passengers
were shock ed at the TRADE Of abuse
which he heaped at the head Of the
supposed martyr. He said he heartily
endorsed the action of the hardy min
ers and prospectors of Glacier creek
who had undoubtedly done away with
the former chief forester, but said they
had erred in not first treating him to
dose of tar and feathers
Smythe was thunder struck at the
language. t'That's sample Of your
Alaskans, !" he said to fellow pass
enger, after the jobber had finished.
The next day Smythe received
wireless message denying the report.
he then realized THAT he had been job

COTTON MARKET
AN EXCITED ONE
BY Associated Press.

New York, July 20.-Today's cotton
market opened steady at an advance of l.
as points in response to better cables
than expected, reports that Continental
spinners had good buyers in Liverpool,
continued trade buying in the local mar
ket, covering of shorts and purchases
of a reaction. There was less active trad
ing than recently, but the market was
evidently very nervous for fluctuations
during the early trading were narrow and
irregular. July was relatively weak,
while other months held about to s
points net higher during the middle of
the morning.
The market turned weak again late in
the forenoon under renewed liquidation
and rumors of an unfavorable political
situation in Europe. July cotton was ex-
tremely weak, selling off to 1901, or to
a new low record for the season and "A
points under the closing figures Of last
night in the absence of buyers, while
later months from a net advance Of from
500 points, broke to net loss of from
to 10 points by midday with the market
demoralized as a result of general SELL
ing.
For time around midday the market
seemed to be oven more excited than pre-
viously on the decline, but the urgent
selling subsidized after old crop positions
had shown a net loss of from 81 to As
points and the new crop of from 16 to
II points, and the market was COM
paratively quiet as we'll as stearier cur
ing the early afternoon at a moderate
rally from the lowest.

CHICAGO GRAIN
AND PROVISIONS
BY Associated Press.

Chicago, July 20.-Frosts reported to
have occurred in the Canadian North
A bullish impulse was also received from
the fact that Liverpool showed no re-
Spouse to the previous decline on this
side. British traders were reported as
being influenced by unfavorable crop ad-
vices from India and by pessimistic views
regarding the political situation and the
American Spring wheat outlook Locally
the improved cash demand acted as an
important factor against the bears. Open
ing prices were the same as last night to
1-4G3-sc higher September started at
81 Is to 81 1-4c@3-Sc, a gain of Is TO
1-463Sc, and rose to 81 1-265-S.
Grasshoppers threatening in Missouri
tended to make the corn market stif.
an estimate current that the seven sur
plus states would yield 236, 900 900 bushels
less than suggested by the latest figures
from Washington. September opened Is
Ola to 1-265-Sc up at SO to 63 S-Sc, and
assembled to So 5-Sc.
In oats there was period Of weakness
because of statements that threshing re-
suits were exceeding by far what had
rallied in sympathy with other grain.
September started IA to 5-Sc off at Al
to Al 3-8c and recovered to 4291-8c.

New Orleans Futures.

New Orleans, July 20.-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance of to 3
points on good cables. This slight adj
vance was not a good response to the
rise on the other side. The market was
held down by an accumulation Of selling
orders over night. No attempt was made
by the bulls to support either crop and
the selling orders had full weight. A
certain scalping element went home long
last night in the expectation OF a mater
ial reaction and the selling out OF this
cotton added to the pressure on the
market At the first hour of business
prices were points down to points UP,
compared with yesterdays close.
Around the middle of the morning the
market had very good tone and prices
showed an advancing tendency on cover
ing by shorts. The list was put 3 to 7
points over yesterdays close. Here fresh
short selling started and it was also
stated that the big long interests renewed
their liquidation. Cables stating that the
Moroccan dispute was causing anxiety
were shown about and led to rumors that
war between France and Germany was
imminent. While these rumors did not
have any great effect, they added to the
general distrust of the situation. No
attention was paid to weat Their accounts
which were more favora BILE than other
wise, although more rain was reported
in the boil weevi1 districts. At noon the
August delivery was 2S points under yes
terday's close and the new crops'were Is
to II points under.
