front of the cabin was sign which said: "Key Pittman, Attorney at Law" It was his office.
 The sentinel had taken drink or two, as it happened, and when he came along and saw Pittman's cabin where none had been only few minutes previous, he wondered if he really saw it or just thought he did. He inquired of several bystanders and they assured him that there was really cabin there. just as he suspected. The sentinel said he had authority only to prevent any, body from building there, bat not to chase buildings off.
 The next day the lieutenant in com mand of the United States soldiers sent for Pittman. Pittman sent word back that he would be in his office all day and would be glad to see him there. The affair was adjusted atnicably after time and Pittman held his lot. ln short time all the rest of the street was completely "built up"
 Then there was the case of the big mining company which claimed to have rights to certain lands near the beach where hundreds of miners had found there was gold to be had only three or four feet beneath the surface. These miners came to Putnam to see what could be done. He told them that legally the mining company had it on them, but for them to follow bis direc tions and he would show them some. thing funny.
 All refused to keep off the beach and were arrested-some 800 of them-apd taken to army headquarters. Now, 300 prisoners, eating three meals day, can make themselves an expensive luxury in country where sandwich brings as high as S3.50. After they had had three meals, the lieutenant in com mand told them he would let them out if they would promise to keep off the beach, They refused to promise. Then he tried to let them escape, but they neglected to escape; instead, Pittman hustled around and otabout 100 more to go and "give themselves up" At the end of three days the prisoners were all discharged, and Key Pittman's law practice was established.
 Senator Pittman is 40 years old, tall, slender, with a springy step, smooth face and romantic backward sweep to his hair. He was born in Vicks burg, Miss, attended college in Tennessee, and was practicing law in the state of Washington when he set out for the klondike.
 When youngster, Pittman did not attend school, but had private tutor, which circumstance is mentioned sim ply to show that not all the boys raised in that exclusive fashion turn out the way they do in comic pictures.

 Greene said he would handle the first load. He mounted the sled and Pitt man showed him off. For the first sec- one or two he got along nicely. Then he approached curve in the trail, mile or so from his starting point The next half second found him buried, along with the sled full of wood, in a ten-foot bank of snow. He managed to dig his way out barely in time to avoid suffocation, and went on to their rude cabin. When Pullman got there he found his partner in the midst of cooking dinner, but in such bad humor that he didn't dare to laugh or even show so much as twinkle in his eye over the incident of the sled in the snowbank.
 "Dinner is ready" announced Greene savagely, after he had finished cooking the pork and beans.
 They ate in silence. When they were through they lighted their pipes and smoked for long time, still without either saying a word. Pttman would have pawned his soul for good laugh, but he was afraid his partner would kill him in cold blood.
 At last Greene broke the silence. He said:
 "You can bring down the next load"
 When he struck Nome, Pittman no- ticed valuable strip of vacant land abutting the main street and running back to the beach. United States sol diers, who were the only visible evil dence of law, guarded that land, on the theory that it was all beach. Even at night, sentinel paced back and forth to prevent anybody from settling on it.. Pittman found that after allowing 60 feet for the beach at high tide, as re- quired by law, there was still strip forty feet deep abutting the street. He asked for permission to take squatter's rights to some of this, but was refused. Then he got the use of room in the rear of saloon nearby and built him. self little cabin. When the sentinel was at the other end of the strip, Pitt man and some of his friends moved the cabin on to the lot he wanted. On the

A Senator From Alaska

Fred 0. Kelly, special Washington correspondence the Seattle P. l., has written the following interesting story: Key Pittman, the new junior senator from Nevada and grandnephew of Fran cis Scott Key, the song writer, has lived more Alaskan adventures than one would find in couple of Rex Beach novels. In fact, he was the leading legal counsel for the miners in their fight against political conspiracy to rob them, as set forth in "The Spoil ers." And practicing law in the gold country in those days required the hardihood of a dozen Pilgrim fathers, combined with the resourcefulness of a William J. Burns.
 But before he set up to practice his profession at Nome, Pittman hit the Skayway trail for the Klondike and worked as common miner for two years. He reached the Klondike with nothing but slightly worn dime in his pocket.
 Imagine yourself young man from fine old Southern family, with only 10 cents in your pocket, in country where drinks sold for dollar each!
 A man offered him S3o cord for wood All he had to do was to go up on the hillside with an ax, cut the wood and tote it in The man would pay him cash.
 Pittman had never before gone in manual labor, but it was the only way he saw to prevent himself from being a drug on the market. He and his part her, one Charles Greene, now of Pitts burg, took the contract. They got the use of couple of axes and large roomy sled, and went out into the hills.

ROAD MACHINERY
WILL Be GIVEN
THOROUGH TRYOU7

A. B. Cole, of the Modern Road Ma
chinery company, of Atlanta, is in
Americas with one of his machines.
The county commissioners will give his
machine thorough try-out with =
view of purchasing one. The following
clipping from the Savannah Morning
News is highly complimentary to the
machine that Mr.. Cole is handling:
Although Chatham county has own
ed its plant of road machinery scarce
ly month, the results that have been
accomplished are 80 great one must see
the condition of the roads to believe
them.
Chairman Oliver T. Bacon, of the
county commissioners, is well pleased
with the operations of the machinery;
in fact he is at loss to understand
Why the county delayed so long in ac-
quiring this modern equipment M.
Bacon and Supt. T. Newell West, ac-
Icompanied by reporter, went over
the roads in an automobile yesterday.
Within month wonders have beel
worked. With this machinery old
paved roads are scarifed and rolled at
the rate of about mile day, with the
use of six men and the equipment. Un>
der the old way gang of forty-five
men labored ten or twelve days to each
mile, and the results were not nearly
so satisfactory, as the picks only pick
ed the surface Of the worn gravel,
while the scarifier, which is drawn by
giant traction engine, completely
turns over the body of the road 50
that gravel that has never been us91
is thrown to the top.
Proves a Great Saving.
In addition to doing the work ten
times as rapidly and more satisfac-
torily, the public is spared the incon-
venience of having the roads torn up
for such long periods and then, as i'm
portant as all the other considerations
is the fact that the forty convicts
who are thus relieved of road wor'1
may be used for drainage or other la
bors.
