RIVERS UP AND DOWN.

Minnesota is SO situated that in
the northern part Of the state there
is a great area Of land so fat that
its waters sometimes flow into Hud.
son bay and sometimes into the Cult
of Mexico. This area contains the
.headwaters of the Mississippi river.
There are times when certain lakes
discharge at both ends, the northern
outlet taking the flow through Red
river or Rainy river into Lake Win
nlpeg, and thence into Hudson bay,
while the southern outlet leads to the
Mississippi. Therefore, the dividing
line between the Mississippi drain
age basin and that of Hudson bay is
indefinite and in many places can
not be determined, and the consid-
GRAFTON of these two basins in con-
nection with their water supplies
and the uses that can be made there

There the natives smoke what they
call the family cigars, and this is
one of them. These cigars are sus.
pended from the ceiling of the room
by two cords, each attached near an
end of the cigar, and the weed is sus-
pended at such height as will en-,
able the smoker to sit and smoke in
comport. They are usually suspend
ed near a window.
Only one cigar is suspended in
the house at time, and while the
cigar lasts, which is a good while, il
is smoked alternately by various
members of the family. When the
smoker is tired he leaves the cigar
and the next smoker comes along, re-
lights it and puffs away.
The cigar is made in exactly the
same way as the cigar as the ordi-
nary size and before the first smok-
er begins he nips off the end in the
usual manner.

The Early Fly. !.

The early hy's the one to swat. If comes before the weather's hot, and sits around and files it's legss and lays at least ten million eggs, and every egg will bring a fly to drive us crazy by and by. Oh, every fly that skips our swat ters will have five million sons and daughters, and countless first and second cousins, and aunts and uncles, scores of doz- ems, and ffty-seven billion nleces, so knock the blamed thing all to pieces. And every niece and eV- cry aunt--unless we swat them so they can't--will lay enough dodgasted' eggs to fill up ten live gallon kegs, and all these eggs, ere summer hies, will bring forth twenty trillion flies. And thus 1t goes, an endless chain, so all our swatting is in vain unless we do that swatting soon, in Maytime and in early June. So, men and brothers, let us rise, gird up our loins and swat the flies. And sisters, leave your cozy bowers, where you have wasted golden hours: with ardor in your souls and eyes, roll up your sleeves and swat the flies. "'":''

ESKlMoS BECOME
 "RloATED" CAPITALISTS

. Several EskimoS of Cape Prince of Wales have wealth which would be considered a com- petence by 75 out of every 100 white .men. Dr. c. A. Thompson, who has arrived in Nome after all uninterrupted stay up there of nearly four years, gives some re- markable details of the manner in which the native is advancing.
 One native, James Keoke, is worth between $25,0O0 and S3O,- 900. He is lord of a herd that numbers between i.500 and 2,O00 deer.
 George Ootenna has nearly i.- 900 reindeer and many others are men of real substance. Nearly every Eskimo has some deer and the exceptions are very few. That wealth brings civilization seems to be shown by the manner in which the natives live. Mrs. Oot- enna keeps the house like white woman, wears beautiful furs and on her table at all meals are nap kins and all the other frills that convert eating from a necessity to a ceremony.
 With the doctor at the cape are three other white people. They are Captain Mckinney, Miss Cald- well, principal of the school, and her assistant, Miss Cameron.
 Dr. Thompson reports that all the natives who were carried out on the ice some time ago have returned afely.--Juneau Dis patch.
