THE ADvENTuRER

He had braved the hungry ocean when the same was in commotion, he had floated on the wreckage of his tempest shattered bark; he had flirted in deep waters with the mer.. mans wives and daughters, he had scrapped through seven sessions with a large meat ing shark.
 He had roamed in regions pos lar. where there's no Seffulg- ence solar, he had slain the fes tive walrus and the naughty arctic bear; and his watchword had been spoken in the wastes by whites unbroken, and he shelled out many gllmdrops to the natives living there.
 In the jungles, dark and fear ful, where the tiger, fat and cheerful, gnaws the bones of foreign hunters, he had gone, whipped a big cohstrictor, and emerged the smiling victor from a scrimmage with a hip DO, which was fond of deadly fray.
 He was shot with poisoned arrows and his tale of anguish harrows up the. bosom of the reader, but he lived to journey home; he was chased by wolves in Russia, and was captured by fierce bandits in the neighbor- hood of Rome. He had lived where dwells the savage whose ambition is to ravage and to fill his cozy wigwam with hand some line of scalps; he had lived with desert races, sought the strange and distant places, he had stood upon the summit of the loftiest of Alps.
 To his home at last returning filled with sentimental yearn- ing, NOW he cried, flare well to danger-I have left it's stormy track!" Far from scenes. of strife and riot he desired long years of quiet, but a cast ing from an airship fell three miles and broke his back.

A BOOST FOR ALASKA


 and optimistic editorials ever written about Alaska is cons tained in recent issue of the Morning Oregonian, of Port land.
 The writer pens beautiful picture of Alaska if the sup opsed change of the Japan currant is permanent. The Oregonian says:
 "Nature seems to have fav- ored the United States in it's acquisition of Alaska. Poli- ticians have exploited it, mer- Icenaries have plucked it, and theorists have tried to bottle lit, but steadily with the years Nature has unfolded it's wealth and disclosed to an astonished world it's grand properties and possibilities. Now it's aurifer- ous sands have yielded up un- gessed treasures; now it's col ,onies of seals have laden com merce with valuable pelts; again it's fisheries have given returns in excess of all eN pectation, and yet again. more wonderful than all, the possl- biiities of agricultaure within it's great eXpance have been established, while it's unmeas ured timber areas and unde- veloped coal mines suggest a national opulence that i'll con- templating surpass the dreams of ayarice.
 "And now comes a report of softening of the Arctic into the North Temperate zone temperature along the coast through the shifting of the Japan current inshore, due to d convulsion of Nature where by islands have erupted into the North Pacific. A temper ature as that of April is record led al Skagway, with little or no snow on the ground-cli- matic conditions that have never before, so far as the re- cords show, prevailed in that far sNortern city, to account for which the theory of the shifting inshore of the Japan current due to seismic de- sturbances of the ocean-bed -has been advanced.
 Whatever the cause, the effect noted is magical, and If permanent will affect the entire peninsula. The great bare uplands of the Yukon River, carpeted with wild flowers ill greatest variety and .profusion in the short sum- mer, and billed high with snow in the winter, will be- come productive grain fields, pastures and garden track 5 dotted with homes and schools and churches. Stock industry and poultry raising will be- come profitable and the de- pandance of the citizens of Alaska upon more Southern lands for means of subsls- tance during the long twilight Of the year will cease. Home stealing on the wonderful pen insula will develop from a mere possibility into certainty that will furnish an abiding place for thousands: the clutch of conservatism will losen it's hold on forest and coal field, and from the inhospitable silence of the shadowy land known to the geographies of the past as "Russian-America, and but

Music as a Municipal Asset.

The deep wave of enthusiasm for
music is in the country; the crest OF
the wave is in the cities. Every me
tropolis-we have more than one-is
a mammoth conservatory. Six cities
support symphony orchestras Of the
first rank. They are Chicago, ST
Louis, Cincinnati, Kansas City, ST
Paul. and Minneapolis. A symphony
orchestra, be it known, is the ne plus
ultra of music-center. TO support
such a luxury is impossible save with
the help of many well-to-do John
Stones. 1t is also impossible without
a solid foundation of music-lovers-
enough to fill the hall nearly every
time. The city that has one has some
thing that it's commercial association
can use with large effect in advertis-
ing literature. For it has come to be
recognized in the west that musical
achievement is municipal asset The

tion to its banks, it's newspapers, its

before you had 'em, by special quick
laying birds imported from the Mooly
Yomps isles, ma'am, and they came
down to this very house by marconi-

A bit of twangy flavor they may have,

ant. 1t is given out that the COM

be twenty-five dollars per day

Mr.. Bryan

Editorial in Portland Oregon
ian (rep.): The marvel about
Mr.. Bryan is his abounding opti-
mism and unwavering faith in
himself and his ideals. He has
been thrice defeated for the pre-
sidency; but the iron has never
entered his soul. He has been
kicked and kuffed about more
than any other man since Lincoln,
but any other would have been
soured, crushed, defeated. But
not Bryan. He accepts his present
position with marvellous good
humor and he faces the future
with unapproachable calm. There
was never anything like it.
The American people like
Bryan. They should. He is a
great political and moral evange-
list. He has not been soiled by
contact with tough problems anc
tougher politicians. If opportu-
nifty has passed him by he has
not been left alone. where he
goes, there multitudes follow. He
is worth listening to, always. He
may never be president, but he
will always be Bryan. That is {
supreme achievement.
