HORSE TAXES
 A LONG SWIM
Sweepstake Company's Animal Started Back to Valdez Along
 the Beach

Alex. Singlctary has a horse down at Port Wells which shows all the independence usually at tributed tO human beings of the north. The animal is alone in the camp and decided last week that he would come to Valdez, where he would meet others of his kind and started back along the beach.
 In front of Golden a peninsula extends out into the bay about half a mile and when the horse found himself on the wrong side o1 the water he started to swim out to sea. He landed on the mainland after having swan the half mile apparently none Inc worse for his long swim in the icy waters. He is now back on the job or hauling the rich orc down from the mine to the beach.

Grand Opening of Now Majestic

The Majestic opened last night in the building formerly occu- pied by the Orpheum theatcr with n packed house and all the standing room taken.
 The pictures shown were ex- ceptionally fine. The program included "The Long Skirt" and "Betty's Buttons," two of the best children's comedy dramas on the market. "The Silent Ton gue," a very cleverly acted com edy, kept the house in an uproar from start Co finish. Bobby, the Coward" by the Biograph com pany, was also well acted.
 Tho music furnished by the Majestic orchestra is always worth inc price of admission alone, while. the trio by Messrs. Surryhnc, Reinkc and Shell can- not be equallcd anywhere in Alas ka.

FOR DIsINFEcTIoN OF BOOKS
Apparatus Devised by Frenehman
Removes Danger Of contagion and
Doesn't Damage Paper.

The danger from contagion from
books that have been In the hands OF
persons suffering from various dis
eases has led to the invention of va
rious methods of disinfection, OF
which none appears to be more effec-
tive than an apparatus devised by
Marsoulan of Paris.
His process embraces two parts.
In the first place, the books are
placed in a "beater" where strong
current of air opens every leaf and
an aspirator sucks out the dust and
deposits 1t in aseptic water; then
they are suspended In a disinfector,
the covers being bent back and held
by clips so that the leaves are widely
opened and placed over heater
which for time subjects them to a
temperature of 1877 degrees Fahren-
heit The paper is not damaged, and
the efficiency Of the process is said
to have been demonstrated beyond
question. Weekly.

A certain boat coming up the Mis-
sissippi one day during the food lost
her way and bumped up against a
frame house. She hadn't more than
touched it before an old darkey
rammed his head up through hole
in the roof, where the chimney once
came out, and yelled at the captain
on the roof: "Whar's yer gwine vivid
dat boat? Can't you see nothin'? =?

BIRD MIGRATION.

The rate at which some birds can
migrate under favorable conditions
is extraordinary, and as one listens
to their plaintive cries coming from
the darkness overhead it is difficult
to realize that in a few hours these
same birds may be within the arctic
circle and little later.may be even
crossing the pole itself. Less
is known of the actual dates of the
departure of the migratory birds in
autumn than of those of their arrival
earlier in the year, and this for OBJ
vious reasons. The way in which our
most charming songsters silently
skulk out of the country in the au-
tumn is very different from that in
which they make their triumphal
entry in the spring when every wood
and copse resounds with their mel.

COMPLIMENTS FOR THE BRIDE.

I must relate a striking salutation
that the bridal couple received from
a Quaker client of mine, shrewd
dry goods merchant. Presented by
an usher he surveyed the bride,
whom he had never seen before, and
then with the utmost deliberation
proceeded to say:
civilian, I think the bride has
shown more judgment ia her choice
than thee has,"
Fortunately before I could turn to
resent this strange salutation he con-
tinued as follows:
Because it takes some penetra-
ton to discover thy good qualities,
but hers can be seen at a glance. -

IS OLDEST OF LIGHTHOUSES
Fire Tower at La coruna, In NORTH
ern Spain, Probably Was Erected
by Trajan. &

AT La Coruna, in northern Spain,
may be seen a fire tower which is,
with the exception of the ruins of
the Roman lighthouse at Dover,
England, the Oldest of all existing
structures of this kind. The exact
date of the erection Of this tower is
unknown According to an ancient
tradition, it is accredited to Her
cules, whence its name, Tore de
Hercules. Others say that Phoeni-
clans who had established several
colonies in Spain, had erected this
light tower for their northland
cruises. However, judging from the
inscription, it is more probable that
the Roman emperor Trajan (9S to
III A. d. erected this structure.
The inscription also mentions the
name of Servius Supus of Lusitania
as the architect. The tower is built
of ashlars and is nine meters square
and forty meters in height. 1t has
six separate stories which can only
be reached by a circular staircase
around the exterior of the, tower.
The lighthouse was restored I'm 1884,
but at the end of the eighteenth CEN
tury was again in ruins. In 1797 it
was rebuilt by the Spanish govern
ment, and still sends forth its
beams.

InserutabIe way Of providence.

With reference to the final extinc..
ton of the latter day successor of
the Delmonico restaurant. it Is re-
lated that two Germans, fresh from
Chicago, once visited New York, and
one well acquainted with the city I'M
vited his friend to dine at Delmonf
co.'s, where a dinner for two and a
bottle of wine were ordered. The
place and fare were praised until the
bill of $11 was presented. This they
considered am extnrtion.
They paid, however, and while
walking down Broadway the excited
German commenced to swear at the
supposed extortion His friend then
said:
"Do net schwear, Yawcops 1t is
wicked to schwear. God has pun
ished that man Delmonico."
