YOUNG LADY AUTHOR
 PLEASED WITH NORTH

Miss Emma Bahmeman, a rich California girl who has been spend ing the summer at Skagway and Othef northern points, where she was gathering the material for her new novel. The Spell of the North, '' predicts a bright future for the No-thland as soon as people begin Co take a little more interest in agri culture and kindred pursuits which win tend to enrich the country in stead oI impoverishing it as at pres ent by the removal year after year of millions Of its riches.
 "It is popularly supposed" says Miss Bahmeman, that the Yukon Is a country oI continuous winter, of bIockades. and famine, and lawless- ness. There is plenty of romance md color in the country, it is true, but the Yukon of today is a far diff fereut place from the region we hear described in Robert Service s vivid verses. There are magnificent farming lands. and the efforts which have been made towards agriculture already have been rewarded by splendid results. vegetables in par ttcuIar being far firmer and having a better flavor than those raised farther south.
 The establishment of an expert mental farm by the government would provide a simple and econ omicaI means of bringing the possi- biliues of the country to the fore, remarked Miss Bahmeman, "and as Che winters are very little colder ghan the prairies, fl as cold, it should be an easy matter to induce settlement to some extent at least.

It is learned from reliable sources that Mir. O. c. Laberee has dispos- ed of his entire interests in the AL aska Northern railway to the Can adian bankers backing that com pany While the exact price receiv- ed is not known. it Is said Co be over a million, probably $l250,ooo, as Nr. Laberee is reputed to own a oue-quarter interest and the price quoted to the government for the road is said to be something over five million dollars. A meeting of the company will be held early in November. at which time his sue cessor will be definitely decided up- on.
 Tt is understood that the reason the banks purchased Mir. Laberee's s interest is that the time had arriv- ed for the distribution of the stocks and bonds, the pool having expired, and the banks desired to keep every. thing in close control in order to be better able to deal with the gov erument. Nr. Laboroe was offered every iuduCement to remain in charge. even after the sale, but de- cliued. as his other interests reQuir- ed his undivided attention.

PARIS CABS MUST BEHAVE
New Regulations, on American Mod
els, Cause Drivers Deep Dis
content.

Paris.-The cochmen and chauffeurs
of Paris are muttering and protesting
over the new series of regulations
relative to street traffic. Frenchmen
dislike changes of any kind. and IT is
not strange that the veteran Partisan
cab drivers should gT1mble over any
rules which pretend to tell them how
they shall drive through the streets Of
Paris which they know so intimately.
Louis Lepine, the project of police,
has. however, become a believer in
the system of the American inventor,
William Phelps Emo. which has al
ready been so successfully applied In
New York and London. Each coach
man and chauffeur has been given a
little book dealing with keeping to
the right side of the road. the rights
and duties Of hirers and drivers re-
spectively. and such questions as sig
nails, speed and the treatment Of
horses.
There is also a special page devoted
to the regulation Of. traffic on the
world-famous avenue, the Champs Ely
sees
