SUNDRY RoRES.

People dodge old Dad McGlury as they cararnle and sing, for he always has story that he's suf- fcring to spring: and his tales are always dreary. so they make his hearers weary, and they wish him in Siberia with his anecdOtal string. People dodge old Billy Riddle when he looms up in their view for he always has a riddle that he wants an answer to: and his riddles are as hoary as the yarns of Dad McGlory, and from Boston to Empory people seeing him cry, "Shoo.' People dodge old Huckleberry as arount the town they whiz; for his stories never vary--they are of his rheu- matiz; oh, he always is complain ing how he suffers when it's rain- ing, how his tortured thews are |straining when the wintry blizzard |bliz. People dodge old Sarah Twister, for she gives them all an ache; she's tiresome, shriek- ing sister, batty on the suffrage fake: wearing out her vocal fea- lures she is featuring the bleach CTS on the rights of female crea- lures when she should stay at home and bake. People dodge old Peter peddler: he's severely left alone: for he is chronic med dler in affairs which aren't his own; he's a rare old mischief maker. spreading gossip by the acre, he's a bad old scandal raker, and his name makes people groan.

ADOPT THE WAYS
 #oF CIVILIZATION

There is an anomalous cOndi- tion of affairs in the native vil- lage at Juneau. The serious minded youth of the village is scandalized by the frivolity of the aged.
 For that matter, however, the same condition exists in all the Thlinget villages from the head of the Lynn Canal to the Portland Canal, with one exception. The young Thlingets, educated in the government schools, in the mines and other industries, are soberrd by the ideas of modern civilization and fired by the ambitions which relate to modern industry.
 With the exception of Chief Yalthock of the Chilcats the eld- CTS do not take to the ways of the whites. They still live largely by fishing and still love the an- ciet dances and potlatches. They dance through the nights, gorge with hootch and candy, and pot latch large sums in gifts. The songs the elders sing. however, are no longer music to the now cultivated ears of the young men.
 For this reason petitions have been sent to Gov. Clark and ap- plicatiOns have been made to the United States marshal for the isuppres sion of these social func- tinns. At present there is some difference of opinion among the authorities as to the extent of the police powers and the right of the marshal to interfere.
 of all the old natives, Chief Yalthkock is the only one who has encouraged the members of his band to take up the ways and hab- it's of civilization. The Yalthkock family had much to lose by the looming of civilization, for they owned more than 60 slaves. For all that he himself adopted the habits of civilization at a very early date, recognized the free dom of the slaves, and has been a strong friend of the government teachers and missionaries.
 In order to keep the young men at home he spent 1000 for band instruments and paid for an in- structor for them. Once a year [ the band makes a tour of South eastern Alaska, taking Chief Yal- thkock and his ancient family wardrobe, consisting of beautiful wooden coats and blankets hand somely beaded and colored with native dyes, and valued al more than s5O,O0O, along. g.--Ex.

Why It Was.

"These certainly are delicious snails," commented a diner at a New York hotel, as he eagerly de- voured a dish of the toothsome morsels.
 First you have eaten, sir?' politely asked the waiter. No. but we don't get them where I live," said the diner. "No asked the waiter. And where is that, may l ask?'
 philadelphia" was the laconic answer.
 "Why,' said the astonished waiter, 'have you no snails in Philadelphia? ?'
 "Oh, yes," answered the man, we have them, but we can't catch them"

"Mutiny" Without
Mutiny in D C. Force

Here's a good little yarn about a
| ''nutiny' without the mutiny. On the
recent cruise Of the naval battalion of
the District militia, some of the men
got the idea that Commander Joseph
A. Dempf intended to denote Lieut.. j.
3. Dalton. the senior officer.
They talked over This proposition
when of duty, and soon they had a
round robin against this rumored ac-
ton.
And here's where the "mutiny'
wasn't mutiny. They kept their ideas
TO themselves and entered no protest
nor request with commander during the
cruise. Instead they waited until they
reached Washington following the New
port practice. Then they asked the
commander not to take the action they
believed he had in mind. He explained
that he had no Intention or demoting
Dalton. and that if he had, the naval
regulations would not permit him to de-
mote the senior officer and appoint a
yeoman.
II this protest or request had been
registered during the cruise, this yarn
would have been different.
Such action would have been mutt
nous" said the commander today,
''and I wouldn't stand for a mutiny,
or anything approaching It."
He said that he regarded the petition
as request and not a protest, and
inasmuch as 1t was presented on land
there was no transgression of regula-
items. Hence there are no District naval
battalion membeus In irons today In
approved story-book fashion, for 1t was
"mutiny" without the mutiny.
