OYSTERS RODE IN TAXICABS
They Were From France and New
York Frenchmen CraVed Them
for Dinner.

B. L. Bowles is an express agent OF
unusual patience. He spent the last
day of the year cold, but hopeful on
the French line pier, answering tele-
phone calls from three French restau-
rants, and merely smiled when, for
the thirty time. a chef asked
about the oyster"
Please, La Lorraine, where is he
with the OYSTER" said the impatient
chef
"She is still down the bay said
Bowles. 81 think she will be here be-
fore six"
What is it the diners will do if the
oysters do not Gomez"
When the chefs called up again Mr.
Bowles had not time to answer. He
was busy with the customs officials ar
ranging for the release Of the oysters.
which were in sacks.
care these things brought here for
breeding purposes" asked the inspec-
tor.
mo" said Bowles. They are
French oysters, called 'marennes
vertes, for eating purposes. There
are about two hundred Frenchmen in
this town who want to eat these oys-
ters tonight with their New Years
dinner. I've got 200 dozen Of them
and three taxicabs are ready to take
them to the restaurants.
At 1925 p m, when the taxicahs
had gone north with the oysters, Mr..
Bowles went into a booth and talked
to the three chefs at once. The
thanks that came simultaneously over
the wire we're too profuse and mud
died to permit of translation.-New

YEARLY PAPER or ALASKA
Publication Of the Eskimo Bulletin Is
Evidence Of Progress of Twenty
Years.

In the bad old days the masters OF
the whaling vessels sailing from San
Francisco to the far north used to
give the Alaskan Eskimos raw ere
water" in order to secure the valuable
furs they had obtained during the long
arctic winter Little they dreamed
that these fierce children of the north
would one day be so advanced as to
print their own newspaper. a writer in
the Wide World exclaims. After the
terrible slaughter by the whalers OF
the alcohol frenzied natives Of Cape
Prince of Wales, in Bering strait it
was a rather tickiish job for a white
man to start a Bible class Still, Fl.
A. Thornton attempted it, but he was
shot dead by boy of fourteen, who
was killed in his turn by his own
kinsman. This affair happened in
1890 Two years after W. T. Lopp ap-
peared on the scene with his wife.
They settled at Cape Prince Of Wales.
and year after year until 1908, they
taught humanity to the Esldmos The
reindeer was introduced from Siberia,
and Mr. Lopp got his pupils to learn
to rear the herds He also taught
them boat building, earpentering, ETC..
and, to put final touch to his valua-
Bile work, he had a small press brought
from the states, and It was not long
after that his pupils were able to COM
pose and print their own paper. This
is probably the only yearly newspaper
in the world-the Eskimo Bulletin.

Old Slopes Settling

The old story of Virginia City S
disappearing houses is being repeat
ed in Tonopah. The mines of the
Comstock, which form great caverns
under Virginia City, collapse occa-
sionaly and house goes to the
depths, while the earth settles ovtr
it, burying it from sight.
The same condition now exists in
Tonopah, where Bob Walsh's house
took downward journey, as the
supports of old Slopes on the Tono-
pah Mining ground gave way.
The serious feature is that if the
caving continues it may engulf the
Mizpah Hotel, a five-story brick and
stone structure. Cracks have al
ready appeared in the walls of the
cellar storeroom.
In that portion of the city the
slopes were worked within 30 feet of
the surface.

With all the delegates to the Chi
cago convention elected, the New
York Herald's canvass shows that
Mr.. TAFT leads by 25 votes, which is
considerably short of the needed ma
jority. The Herald's figures are bas-
ed on the records of delegates in
structed or pledged, and do not take
into account rumors advanced by
either side. About $50 of the Taft
delegates are uninstrcted. but are
regarded as Taft men, though the
Roosevelt managers CLAIM many OF
them. The Herald's figures are: For
Taft, 492 for Roosevelt 464; La
Folette, 36, Simmons 10 aud Unclass

jority 48; needed to give Roosevelt IA

differ considerably from the claims

II is HOW iuoTt tudH twenty
three hundred years since Herodo-
tus expounded TO the assembled
Greeks his celebrated theory that
the cardinal fact in history was
the interaction of Asia and Eu-
rope, the pendulum of ascendancy
swinging now to the east and now
to the west, says the New York
Sun. From the fall of Troy to the
memorable land and sea fight az
Mykale he depicted many vicissi-
tudes, but of course he could not
foresee that the grandsons of the
men who heard him would witness
the destruction of the Persian EN-
pire by Alexander and the pene-
tration of India by the Macedoni-
an phalanx. AS little could the
western peoples, which in the
nineteenth century despoiled and
insulted China and wrenched open
the gates of Japan, have expected
that in the course of Il few decades
far eastern nation would exhibit
degree of military and naval eff
cheney unsurpassed. if equaled, in
the annals of mankind.
Had our memories been more
tenacious, none of us would have
taken for granted, as most of us
have, that Asia was beyond the
hope of resurrection, doomed to
permanent prostration under the
European heel. Such, undoubt.
rdly, was the delusion in which the
eastern subjects of the Roman en-
pire long abided. although such de-
feats as those of Crassns and Va
lerian ought to have excited deep
misgivings. Everybody imagined
that the oriental wave had spent
itself when Hannibal was routed
at Xama. and nobody could have
anticipated that, from the second
half of the seventh to near the
close of the seventeenth century.
Europe would be haunted with the
dread of .Asiatic invasion and con
quest. Yet more than thousand
years were to elapse from the
seizure of Roman Syria by a sue
cessor of Mohammed to Sobies-
ki's repulse of the Turks before
the walls of Vienna. OF all Aryan n
countries Russia had least reason
to arrogate an innate superiority
over the Turanian stock. The
grand dukes of Muscovy had been
paying tribute for two centuries to
the Mongol rulers of the Golden
Horn when the Turks took Con
stantinople. a id some three and a
half centuries more were to elapse
before the Russians regained
control Of the Crimea. Even
China in he seventeenth century,
when the Manchu dynasty was
young. drove Muscovite pioneers
and merchants out of Manchuria
and forced item by treaty to retire
behind the .Amur river. History,
therefore, will but repeat itself
when Russia submits to similar
boundaries at the command OF the
Japanese.
