Travellers along Flat creek cannot fail to be impressed with the scene of d"solation which has followed the advent Of the Guggenheims. Where d year or so ago the creek was the scene of great activity. one now meets scarcely a soul along the whole creek. except in the i'm mediate vicinity of the power house and farther up the creek where the dredge is working The Forks. which was quite a little town. and which last season supported a laun- dry. a bakery. pool rooms and cigar stores. is now almost deserted and the houses are being torn down and moved elsewhere.
 Along the creek q year ago smoke might he seen issuing from cabins here there and everywhere. Now those same cabins are vacated and falling into decay. where they are not being razed for the wood that is in them.
 Verify it is a queer example of the benefits which result from the introduction of capital"
 Of course much money is spent in other ways such as tha erection of power houses. dredges. etc. but il cannot compare with the general distribution of wealth which would have followed individual operation of the claims.

THERE'S A NEW FACE
 AT THE WINDOW NOW

There are still aspirants for white hope honors in Fairbanks
 One day during the past week two society young men came to roin' where they could not agree and de. cided to retire to one of the x. C. warehouses to settle the matter. They chose warehouse No. 3. and went at it with bare fists.
 Whether they were accompanied by seconds and referee was not learned. but when the belligerents emerged from that warehouse one of them hastened for medical aid for himself and had his nose pu! in a plaster paris cast. That Is what they generally do in the case of a broken member. so that is what was reported in this case.
 The young man with the nasal trouble will not be in evidence al one of the public offices for the next few days.

SETTLE THE QUESTION.

That some satisfactory settlement should be made of the ownership of the Big Cinema Hot Springs is he opinion of every person who has visited this health resort As the matter now stands the lessee is harassed in his every effort to provide for the comfort of his pa irons by the party claiming the springs as his homestead and hecaus' the claimant and lessee cannot ahso- mtely agree there is continual friC- ton and the people wishing to avail themselves Of the curative powers ot the waters prove to be the butt of the warning factions.
 Mir. Beam, who has lease from the claimant with something like three years to expire, cannot srr his way clear to make the improve ments he desires. but should tho government assert its right of own ership to these waters Mr Beam could then get q lease from the government for say fifteen years and if this could he done he would commence immediately on improve ments to the extent of at least s2o0O0 which would bring the springs to the attention of the whole world and place them on an equal. ity of even those of Carlsbad.
 With facilities which would in sure comfort. and some judicious advertising in the newspapers anG magazines. there is no doubt but that the health seekers of the world would turn their steps toward Alas ka in search of the Elixir of Life

MORNING lASSiTUDE.

That tired feeling in the morning" which afflicts so many of us. may be relieved. if not entirely overcome by a course of simple exercises Be fore rising. stretch out flat on your back and lift up first one leg and then the other. raising the foot as high as you can each time Repeat this exercise until you feel titat; then raise both legs. letti's them down slowly This will bring a strong strain on all the muscles of
 he back and abdomen. but do not stop unless you get too tired. Next lift yourself into a sitting position, extended as if you were rowing. In rising to a sitting position keer your hands resting on your collar. bone; you may find q iifficu,ry in reaching the sitting position, unless you put something on your feet to keep them down. but this may be cffectually done if the eXercis" is taken on the floor bv pushing the feet H der some piece of furniture, like d bureau. or stand, but perse- we're. and each day you will gain strength until you can raise your self without trouble. Do not strain too hard at first. but try. try again" When you have done these exercises take a number of long breaths-just as long as you can. Expel the air each time slowly from the lungs, These exercises, if done slowly. and not to excess at first, will d) more good than all the medicines in the shape of drugs that can be taken in wardly. After taking them, try talk ing a cold bath, either tub or spunGe, rubbing yourself well down win coarse towel, then with the bare hand. If you are not strong at first, be moderate with the exercises. taxing longer stunts as you gam strength. If cold bath can not be taken at first. take cool hath having the chill taken off the water; but if you can stand 1t. anl react quickly, the cold water is a fine nerve tonic; 1t must be taken quick ly. and the body rubbed dry at once so as to start warm glow over the flesh

AFRICAN WOMEN REBEL
 AT WEARING SKIRTS.

lNHAMBANE. British East Africa and social reformers Of more cn- frightened countries in their efforts to compel the fair sex to put more cloth into their skirts pale into in significance beside the trouble ot the local governor of Inhambano. British East Africa. who has almost caused war by ordering the native maidens to attire themselves iu European garb.
 The order particularly insisted tha, 'he native women should not ap- pear in public without skirts under pain of some grave penalty not speci- fled
 Never was an apparently innocent sumptuary law received with such an outburst of rebellion. I he Com mercial Council resigned in body and the Indian storekeepers who deal in the articles of attire favored by the native ladies threat ened to shut up shop in protest.
 The native belles took even more drastic action by refusing to come near lnhambane at all. with the result that the town was soon in Hanger of famine in vegetables. eggs poultry and other npreSear, food supplies. The women who lived in town prepared to leave.
 The opposition became too hot for the governor, who withdrew the obnoxious decree, and the belles of lnhambane again go about in their scant native costumes

MINING CONGRESS AND ALASKA

The Mining Congress now in ses- sion in Spokane is paying much al tention to Alaska and her resources and it behooves Alaskans to be or the alert. else they be made the victims of hot air artists.
 We must always bear in mind that the coal trusts are now. and for lon" have been. scheming to get title to the coal lands of Alaska for as long as these great bodies of coal are kept outside the trusts the trusts are in danger of losing their control of the prices of coal
 The one great requisite is for the government to retain title to that coal, for if the government ever parts with title, no matter to whom the trust will gain control just as surely as they have control nov. Let all Alaskans beware of those people who are telling us how much abused We are by being bottled up and at the same time. perhaps. re porting progress to the coal barons
 What We want is for the govern ment to retain title to the coal law limiting the size of the lease and requiring continuous work; anG for the government to retain suf ficient of the coal to mine itself for it's own use in the navy and for private consumption, in case the people are taxed an unreasonable amount for their coal Such an arrangement would always keep the price Of coal where it should be. for then city, or gold mining dis trict could take lease and furn- ish their own coal if held up. It would not be likely that they would be held up under those conditions for the fact that competition could come in at any time would prevent an attempted combination to make unjust prices.
 Added to the above we want the government to build and operate a railroad through the coal fields. so that the people of the entire Pa cific coast. and of the entire In- terior Alaska can get the benefit or cheap coal and transportation.
 Let the Mining Congress know that their advocating the giving up of title to this coal, and their advo eating a railroad to be built by the government, but not operated by it., is just what the coal trusts and the Guggenheims want, and what they want is not to the interest of the people.
 Let us beware of those selfstyled. soft-voiced friends of Alaska

VACATION.
B. George Fitch.

i Vacation is one of the few gambles i that aren't prohibited by law You | put in all the money you have saved
 and draw two weeks rest out of nice room next to the breeze on a shady farm with milch COW. If you lose you get shivers at a north. arn beach. .ocanned goods in a country
 boarding house or a camping party in wet spell But whatever it is. it is your vacation.
 Vacation consists of eleven months of saving. two weeks of scramble
 and two weeks of rest Some people rest by chasing a deer through 100 miles of underbrush and some by climbing mountain that only has
 hand-hold every loo feet Others rest by playing lawn tennis until
 they are parboiled to a deep red. and still others consider turning heavy motorboat engine over by hand in broiling sun to be a re taxation that will send them home
 feeling like new men.
 Some people are very hard on their bank accounts during vacation. and go to expensive seaside resorts
 here the poor things get no rest
 at all. A man may return from one
 of these places looking the picture which is so emaciated that a ? cent stamp would make a bulge in il.
 Some people are so rich that they can take months vacation and others are so rich that they rest fifty-one weeks in the year and spend the other week at home watching
 hired man cut coupons. But two
 weeks vacation Is as much as the ordinary man can stand.
 Ministers usually get a months
 vacation. but this is because their congregations need the rest.
 School teachers have three months vacation without pay. When labor ing man gets this kind of vaca- tion he calls it a lockout and wants to know what the government is
 going to do about it.
 People choose their vacations too
 carelessly and place too much faith in railroad folders and rumor. The
 best way to choose a place in which to gorge ones self with rest is to
 pick it ont the year before and en
 courage a friend to go to it. If he comes back still a friend you can
 risk 1t
 Of course. some men suffer severe ly during their vacation and get even by recommending the place of
 torture to their friends, but forum.
 ately these villains are very few.
 Vacations are valuable because
 they give a man change. Govern ment employees should always spend their vacations at hard labor.
