Dixie, the song of the South, and

erners, was first introduced by a
minstrel company. Indeed, in days
gone by, minstrel aggregations were

songs that were 10 find place in the

Emmett. who made his farewell tour
with the Al G. Fields Greater MINI

old melody. Stage tradition has 1t
that Emmett was ordered to have
new song for the coming week, and
that he wrote Dixie one Sunday
and sang it the next night 10 an au-

adopted the tune, and later made 1t

HELP THE GOOD WORK.

Every man on the peninsula worth his salt should join in the effort to get the government to operate our rail- road. The advantage to the district would be almost incalculable as the running of trains into the interior of the peninsula would hasten the devel- opment of territory which all believe still to contain great possibilities. It Is safe to say that new camps are con stantly cropping up in Alaska and other places which have nothing to show to compare with the prospects on the kougarok and many other sec tions of the peninsula's interior. The lind on Cleary creek, chronicled yes terday, would be enough to cause a fever of excitement in some of the camps of the Yukon at present. If people up there heard of two feet of tel cent dirt not man would be left 70 when the stampeders had hit the trail. Especially would this be true when it was found that the pay had been discovered on ground that is only a few feet deep. But we in Nome, ac- customed to the fabulous fortunes of the third beach line and other places, are unable to appreciate fully the i'm portance of such discoveries.
 The history of all mining camps teaches one undeniable lesson. It IS that people, after having been accus- toned to great things, condemn the smaller things which. comparatively small as they are. would look big to people who had not been spoiled by a lavish fortune.
 Some men in the interior of Alaska are making fortunes today by operat- ing dirt that goes only a few cents to the pan in deep ground. At most of such dirt a Nome operator is inclined to turn up his nose.
 Seward Peninsula is unquestionably the greatest mineral territory of equal size in Alaska. Hidden away are still many paystreaks which lie idle be- cause the territory around cannot be easily approached. There is no doubt that even much of the ground on which poor men have been struggling

STILL ONWARD.

That sufficient teams can not be obtained in Nome at present to per from the freighting required is one of those facts which may be regarded as unpleasant in themselves but fraught with pleasant significance. It shows that Seward Peninsula. far from show ing continued decline. is actually mak- ing an upward movement right at this moment. This is a condition that might we'll be envied by any other camp in Alaska and one that should prove once for all that even the placer fields around Nome have many long years of prosperity still ahead.
 The output this year is just as near equal as possible to the corresponding period of last season. This proves more than that We are holding our own. It really proves that the dullness which usually precedes a period of new ventures has been offset by the advances made in the old fields.

for years will be good producers should transportation facilities be pro- vided. To bring about such facilities should be the aim of every man who believes in doing his best for the com munity in which he resides. Indeed the man who does not take an interest in his community's advancement hard ly counts anyhow.
 All others should set down to work on this railroad question.

ELECT GOOD MEN.

The legislature given to Alaska may not be able to alter the conditions of the world. It can hardly compare with the Roman or American senate It may indeed partake very largely of the functionary capacities. external appearance and the possibilities of a small municipal corporation. but still il is the best We have got and 1t should ourselves up as the laughing stock of the country.
 It is all very we'll to say that it makes vey little difference what the capabilities of a man are so long as he thinks as you do. Thinking as you do does not necessarily mean thinking connection with the coming election that if We prove ourselves careless n small things We cannot expect to be entrusted with things that are greater. For too long a time. men have been elected to legislatures who. if they had followed different channels of activity. would be never candidates for any thing more exalted than dog catchers But some such take it into their heads that Providence created them specially to lead their benighted brothers across the desert into the Land of Promise. and the bowling joke of the whole thing is that voters take them at their own appraisement.
 Nome has some of the brightest and best men in Alaska and a few of them if they could be prevailed upon to run. would be worth a thousand of an- other kind.
 The position of representative or senator in the new legislature is one that entails a tremendous amount of trouble without adequate conn ensa- tion either in money or honor. But this fact should not permit the people to come to the conclusion that anyone Is good enough for the job. Anyone Is not good enough. We should re- member that the coming legislature. no matter how small it's legislative powers may be. will stand as the eri- terion by which Alaska will be judged throughout the nation.

Footwear Fashions.

THERE are boots for every occasion.
The boot worn when going a-market-
ing is very different from that for shop
ping and afternoon calling wear. and
there is just as much difference in the
thin-soled, beautiful little slippers worn
for different social gatherings.
For afternoon wear the high buttoned
boot is correct, while pumps and slippers
are reserved for the evening costumes.
The gaiter top shoe is a good-looking
model and much favored because it may
match the costume. A very fashionable
boot at present is of soft patent leather
with a metal gray top. These boots are
slightly higher than the usual buttoned
boot.
The high boot of daintily colored satin
is worn with the dance frock. These
have the very thin soles and curved heels
of the dancing slippers. and often the
heels are inset with mock gems, rhine
stones being the favOrite.
For rough wear there are trim boots
of tan calf. These are especially suited
to the young girl who delights in long
tramps. The heels are low and broad
while the thick, extended sole and bluchel
effect give a manniSh SmartneSS to the
model
Walking slippers have French heels
but their soles are heavier than the ordi-
nary evening slippers. They are particu
larly smart in patent leather or black
kid, finished with oval silver or gun
| metal buckles, or in heavy satin to match
different costumes for formal wear.
Each evening costume must be accom-
panied by slippers particularly suited tt
either by matching or by contrast In
color. Many slippers, such as black ano
bronze satin, are suitable for different
costumes.

@OMMON salt may be used with great
benefit in a strange variety of ways,
both internally and externally.
For catarrh lukewarm solution OF
salt and milk should be snuffed up the
nostrils three times daily, one fourth tea
spoonful of the salt being used in half
pint of milk Chronic sore eyes should
be bathed frequently with water in which
a small amount of salt is dissolved, while
it is applied very strong to sprains and
bruises Moistened salt should be bound
upon burns. and if applied in time it will
prevent all blistering. Mixed with the
white of an egg it will absolutely prevent
felons. One. teaspoonful Of salt in tea
cupful of cold water will at once relieve
the pain from collie.
A cure for cholera morbus is one table
spoonful of salt and one teaspoonful OF
black pepper dissolved in a half tumbler-
full of water and a half tumblerful OF
vinegar. the dose being two teaspoonfuls
of the mixture every twenty minutes until
relieved.
A small sack loosely filed with salt and
thoroughly warmed is good for neuralgia
as the salt adds its curative properties to
the warmth. A peculiar use of 1t is to
bind it dry upon the back of the neck, as
this is said to be an unfailing cure for

slender, wrapped in the rich, soft folds
of the rich. fur-trmmed wrap-fashes
past the opening in the awning and van
ishes tantaliZingly into the place of lights
and flower perfumes and soft music. Not
a doubt but that some of those silk and
fur-wrappcd figures seen in the glare of
the d~essing-room lights within, will turn
out to be over forty, with thickened
wais times, prominent collar bones and
artificial tresses, though in their soft,
gorgeous wraps. in the shadow of the
awning. the beauty of the houris seems
to be theirs
At least half of the winter evening
wraps are of brocaded material. Some
of the velvets with raised brocade pat
terms are superb, and such a wrap, bOr-
dered with sable. skunk or ermine, is al
most as expensive as one made entirely
of fur. Quantities of material are used,
also, in these new wrapS-the straight,
narrow garment is no more. and a mod
ern wrap, off the figure, resembles moth
ing so much as a huge. inflated bag with
slashes cut at the sides for the arms.
When the wrap is on. the yards and
yards of rich fabric fall in lines of ele-
gance and grace. but the cut of these
wraps is hopelessly beyond the ken of the
! ordinary dressmaker, for despite its bag
giness and it's fullness the wrap must
take on certain prescribed lines, and
these lines. in combination with the volI-
minouS folds, require Skillful hand in
the cutting, it may we'll be believed. No
matter how full it is at the front, the
back of the wrap must fall straight as
