trate this Lovers Lane" as It is
called. are charmed with its delights.
Immense and aged fir trees border it.,
moses and lichens and wild flowers
grow In the shade and the native ber-
ries fringe the pathway. The nature
lover Is enraptured with the mile and
half Of sylvan beauty.
One can understand that such a
walk may exist in Sitka, which enjoys
warm breezes from the sea to sucn ar,
extent that the air is always moist.
The surprising revelation is to find
wild flowers in the interior, in regions
where snow and ice predominate for
many months Of the year. There are
acres OF forgetmenots on mountains
5000 feet above sea level. SO many Of
them that they make a carpet Of blue.
You come across deserted Indian VIII
lagos where the houses, which are
built OF rough boards. are approached
through weeds and epiSobium so high
and SO rank that It is necessary to
part them overhead in order to pene-

the landscape and it seems to grow

Imagination one. Is transplanted to

pleasing to the eye. after the long.

This luxuriance Is the result Of the
long summer days and the fact that
for ages the forests have been undis-
turbed. One log has fallen upon an
other and decayed. producing a rich
vegetable muck in which almost ey-
erything will grow. The richness and
softness OF the soil makes Alaskan
wood difficult to obtain and when any
large enterprise has been undertaken.

the most part. has been shipped from
Puget Sound.
The wild flowers in this northern
country. along the coast and back to-

beauty and fragrance. Far up. near
the Seal Islands, are immense fields OF
yellow poppies. and in other sections
there are wild geraniums Of a blush

Masonic Banquet.

In accordance with a custom inau
gurated several years ago, which hal
gained in popularity with each succeeding
event, the members of Mount Holly
Lodge No. IA, F. and A. M, gave theil
annual banquet and reception to theil
ladies IN the Masonic Temple on Thurs
day evening. The guests assembled ir
the lodge room, where an informal recep
ton was held, after which adjournment
was made to the banquet room, w. D.

following menu:
Grape Fruit Maraschino Cherries
r. Broiled Oysters on Toast Bread sticks

by Rev. r. F. Y. Pierce, of New York,
former pastor of Mt Holly Baptist

sonic fraternity; and by ex-Congressman
Levin l Handy. of Wilmington, Del,
past grand master of that state. Neither
gentleman was stranger to his audience,
DIR. Pierce being greeted by many friends
made during his former residence In

were eloquent and pleasing and greatly
enjoyed. The Fidelis quartette, of Phil

Safe Blowers at Work

safe in the office of Doughty & Co.,
coal and lumber dealers on Pine street,
was 80 badly damaged on Thursday night
that new one has been installed to take
its place.
1t was after o'clock when the burglars
entered the building. Notwithstanding
the fact that they made two attempts to
wreck the safe with nitro glycerine, they
did not succeed In reaching the cash box,
as brass bolts held the door intact, but il
was twisted and the lower portion of the
safe split open.
The men were in the Office at work when
the 2 20 shore freight came along, as there
was one explosion before and one after
the train passed that point. The intrud-
ers secured a few pennies from a money
drawer in another part of the building.
The burglars filed the cracks In the
safe door with soap, and the fact that they
were bold enough to remain for a second
attempt is reason for believing that the
operators were professional men.
In connection with this matter the po-
lice have been somewhat censured for NOT
answering a red light call said to have
been displayed on Pine street after the
| first explosion. In their own defence the
officers not only have the lady operator at
the telephone exchange, but several citi
zens to account for their whereabouts on
that morning between 2 and 8 o'clock.
At A. M. Policemen Collins and Cur
tbs were opposite the Chance residence on
High street making test of the red
| lights. which were not ordered off until
they reached the Moose home. While in
front of that property the officers heard q
report which they thought sounded like q
pistol shot, railroad cartridge or an ex.
plosion. Thinking that Policeman Hal
might be in trouble or something else
wrong, the officers hid their brass buttons,
put on old hats and started out to investi.
gate In the direction from which the sound
came.
On reaching the home of William SHARP
the policemen saw the young man sitting
at window reading. They spoke to him,
| and on raising the window Sharp did not
recognize the disguised policemen unit
they made themselves known. Hall wai
| found at the fountain, and the three off
GERS concluded to walk out Pine street.
Reaching Pine and Mill streets they mel
Bert Shinn, Harvey Worrell and some
other workmen who were repairing leaky
water main. After telling of their suspi
cions, the plumbers said they had not heard
any explosions, had seen no men In tina
neighborhood and that no red lights haC
been on at the time mentioned This
put the officers off the track and they
went no further in that direction.
