Good days and bad days exist only In your own head. The weather has nothing to do with 1t. Each day is what you make 1t for yourself. Bad weather Is only an unfortunate opin' lon.
 Suppose 1t is raining pltchforks.

 It's what you think and feel about 1t that makes each day what 1t is. You, within yourself, can make each day, every day, q good day. Put down in the notebook of your soul the poet Runeberg's thought;
 Each day Is life"
 When you get up in the morning throw back your shoulders, take q deep breath. Meet the new day Ike man. Say to yourself;
 Another day-mother life!'

THE FUEL SITUATION
 IN TOWN OF SKAGWAN

The winter fuel problem in Skag- way has tor some time been the cause of serious apprehension on the part of consumers, as it was known that practically the whole available supply of wood had been used and that AIr. Nye, the princi- pie wood dealer, had siguified his intention of quitting the business, and has, in fact, for the past three months been out of 1t. This left on ly few cords of wood on sale in the town, and since that time this has all been sold, leaving not even a single rick on hand in the yards dt the local dealers.
 The coal situation was almost in equally bad condition, but as the W. p. x '. R. has taken over the business of the Shaw coal company, and will furnish coal at the same rates heretofore charged, the fears of a coal famine has been relieved. The W. P. X Y. R. will handle both outside and Tantalus, '. T. coal. and the buyer can take choice between the two. Twelve dollars Der ton. at the bunkerS, will be the price charged.
 The wood question, however, does not appear so easy of solution, and while it is rumored that two men have hired men and are now engaged in cutting wood for the Skagway market, short distance from here. it is by no means sure that they will be able to supply the demand. starting in so late in the season.
 In the immediate vicinity of town are large areas of timber land which have been burned over by forest fires. and the majority of the trees left standing lifeless. This tim Der. while it is yalueless for most purposes. would make excellent fuel

bail last night for hearing before
Magistrate Thomas II. Buckley next
Monday evening on the charge of so
liciting to commit a felony. The

trio lamps of the value of 43 cents,
the property of the Peoples Railway
