NOR'WESTERN IN
 THIS EVENING
Will Bring Delegates From ln- terior and Southeast
 ern Alaska

The Northwestern arrived ill Cordova last evening and sailed Tor Valdez at noon today. She will arrive here early this evening.
 The delay at Cordova is due to the fact that more than 100 pas sengcrs bound for the interior will be landed there. There is : also large amount of freight to unload at that point. The big crowd of passengers would have been unable to find accommoda- tions in the town as the Seattle passengers were augmented by many delegates from Southeast ern Alaska to attend the ReDubli- can convention in COrdova and the steamer was delayed a few hours for the accommodation of the passengers.
 The passengers from Seattle for Valdez arc: s. Tonsgard, B. J. kassemer, H. Tlse, Col. J. P. Grant, II. Unslar, Henry Stevens, II. Hanson, II. Aune, c. Hendrick- son, Mrs. R. V. Paden and J. w.

MINIMUM WAGE CAUSE OF STRIKE
Labor Leaders Refuse to arbitrate Except to Justify De-
 mandS

The British government is ap- parenily hcsitating lO order the mine owners tO begin operations JuL will have to come to it before long as both sides are Obduratc and refuse to arbitralc. The South Wales coal owners associa- ton which employs 800, ,OOO men has intimatcd that such action on the part of the government would bc revolutionary, but they believe il is bound to happen.
 Y. 4. Thomas. the leader of the coal owners, says: No orEan- iZaliOn of employers can fight cf- f"ciually against an act of par riamcnI, and if inc government exercises IhiS force, We shall be compelled to submit.
 "Thc proposals of the Eovrrn- mcnt cannot fail to bc regarded as of the most far-rraching. not to say revolutionary, character. If these proposals are tO be en- forced by legal enactment, it means that the government is | compelling the South Wales coal owners to agree 10 breach of the agreement sOlcmnly entered into by representatives of the work men to last till 1915. To pass an act forcing the South Wales coal owners to set aside this agree mcnt goes 10 tho root of collcct- i've bargaining.
 Nobody can suppose for a mo- ment that tho policy or principle will stop there. Within a very short period we shall have every other industry claiming to bc similarly treated.
 '"Thc unrest in South Wales is due to persistent and advanced SOcialistic propaganda, and not really to legitimate and natur- al demand for better wage con- ditions. Wages in the South Wales coal field arc tho highest in the old World"
 Robert Smillic, vicc-prcsidcnt of inc Minors Federation of Great Britain, says:
 '"Thls is what has happened Tho government has asked the miners representatives to jus tify the rates they put forward as a minimum wage. We arc quite willing to do that, but we can not negotiate with any view to a possible reduction of those rates. The executive officers of tho Federation, in fact, have no authority to agree to any rcduc- ton.
 "The men are more certain than ever that they will succeed and secure the rates mentioned in tho schedule. We arc prepar- ed to prove the reasonableness of our claims. We hold that a certain minimum is necessary to keep the miner and his family in comfort, and that If he renders service he is entitled to an in- come necessary to that end.

sKUNK'S WEAPON OF DEFENSE
That No Living Thing Will At
tack Ii.

The skunk is about the size OF
large cat, and so awful is the effects
of it's spray that no living thing, un-
less by mistake, will attack it, and in
consequence it is quite fearless, and
will harG;y get out of the way OF man.
Mr.. Hudson, who has had experience
of it in South America, tells of how a
foolish eagle vulture, pressed by hun
ger, triel to seize the menacing tail,
but Immediately afterwards began
staggering about with disheveled
plumage, fearful eyes and a profuse-
!y woebegone expression on its vu.ture
face.
After a dog has once experienced
those :ew dreadful drops OF perfume
1t VII: hardly ever be induced to at
tacP ting little fiend again. But if, after
mu. n persuasion and banter, a poor
canine, holder than the average, is
urged to the attack, and can seize the
skunk by the back, then the victory
may lie with the dog, but if the spray
reaches the dog before it can do this,
It will fall down as If shot, and not
recover for days.
A drop on a mans coat will render
it quite useless for further wear. For
the preservation OF life man has de-
veloped brain, the elephant it's tusks,
the tiger its claws and teeth, the deer
its feetness of foot, the snake its roi-
SON, the singing nettle it's sting, the
bush it's thorn and the skunk its drops
OF horrible odor, SO powerful that it
tortures the olfactory nerves past en-
durance, and pervades the whole sys-
tenn like pestilent ether, nauseating
one, until sea-sickness seems almost a
pleasant sensation in comparison.

Marked Difference in Skins.

An importing firm recently received
q shipment of tiger cat skins from
Paraguay and the Argentine Republic,
and placed alongside lot OF North
American wildcat skins the difference
in color and markings was very no
ticeable. Both animals are of about
the same size, but the South American
cat is covered with round black spots
much like those of the leopard, but
smaller in size. These spots contrast
strongly with the surrounding fur.
which is of a grayish white color, very
different from the reddish color OF
the North American wildcat. The fur
of the South American wildcat is not
so thick as that Of his North Ameri-
can cousin, but the skins are said to
dress well and make good robes and
rugs.-Fur News.

syREsT TEST OF OLD AGE
DON'T Look at Your Face for the Siqrs
of Times March-Watch
the Heart.

The dear little old lady was just
As cross as she could be!
al because the old-fashioned con-
iuctor had said: BE careful Watch
out, grandma. Don't get off the car
,ill it stops"
1t was probably the first time that
rom the lips of a stranger came the
rerdict that the world had begun tc
lock upon her as an old lady.
She must have known that her
shoulders were bit stooped-but old :?
40, not Just in the prime of life, and
the very idea of that man calling out:
Watch out, grandma"
But after all, what matters what the
rcnductor said? There is rumor OF
nner consciousness that should tell
enc if one is growing old.
Don't look at your face to see If
age is creeping on. Watch the heart.
Beware of allowing care to make
crows feet there.
Oliver Wendell Holmes summed VI
the philosophy of life when he said:
oAu S-'OAty SSHIc yOuAo @ONuJ
Every birthday should see ones heart
Younger. The o1'y way to keep from
growing old is to keep growing young.
The only time to begin growing young
is before one begins to grow old.
There are mental attitudes and limp
ing worse than tEc-c CT f2lte-i1g
loot. There are aches and Pains
caused by selfshness and narrowness
much worse than those CT rheumatism
Begin this moment to grow young.

FE,THERED PET ON WATCH
Canary Has Constituted Itself Guar
dian of New fork Mans In
FAINT Treasure.

Bringing home a canary in a cage,
q YOnkerS man save it to his wife
as q birthday present and the song
s.er was established in the lady's bou-
der, not far from a crib in which
the household baby took daily maps.
The tot Immediately became interest
ed in his new neighbor and the bird
would fly against the bars of his brass
prison in efforts to get nearer the
child. But the pair got better &C
quainted when the baby was held
up to he cage and had its fingers
thrust inside the bars. On such &C.
casions the canary would hop on the
baby's hand and gently peck at the
tiny, dimpled digits
After a few weeks the bird was
often released and permitted to spread
its wings in the room. Later it was
given the freedom of the house, but
although it flew into various rooms,
1t would not long remain absent from
the boudoir and the crib. Baby and
bird became intimate friends and the
bird would hop on the baby's head
and hands, but carefully avoided be.
ing clutched in the fat little fingers.
When the infant goes to sleep the
canary perches on the foot of the
crib, and there it stays on guard un-
til the little one awaKes. And it is a
good sentinel. for if any enc ap-
proaches the sleeper it begins to
sputter, ruff1e its feathers and other
wise manifest symptoms of displeas
ure In approved bird fashion.--New
