"NOW PAY FOR IT,"

Judging from all accounts Fail banks as we'll as Juneau discussed - and cussed-the poll tax.
 The News-Miner published the fol lowing editorial, which has some sa. tire mixed in with cold fact:
 "On town and creek the poll tax collectors are after you, and you should meet them half way and hand them the money. If you have pad poll tax once this year, that does not affect the case-the first collection was illegal, but the present collection is according to the new book of Hoyle turned out by our first legislature, and is therefore law made by yourself or your personal agents.
 For twenty years Alaskans have cried for home rule. Finally it was given them. It costs money to main tain a territorial legislature, and the people have to pay for it. It will cost every man in this town between the ages of 21 and 50 years $4 per year to keep the territorial legislature working 60 days in every two years, or 13 cents per day per inhabitant for every days work done by the ter ritorial legislature-that is, it will cost us that Tn poll tax; there are oth- CT ways in which we will be assess ed to keep the home rule game go- ing. It's worth it, so pungle up.
 'The poll tax collectors should start their work in the right way, and not in the catch-as-catch-ca manner which has characterized the work of poll tax collectors to date. Every man should pay his tax instead of putting the burden upon few. Ev- cry collector should first obtain list of the voters who voted at the last territorial election, and they should be made to pay poll tax first, as their votes made the tax. After they are collected from, all others should be collected from. The voters should be the first to pay, for they are the men who cause the imposition of the tax es."-Juneau Dispatch.

correspondent sends the Glasgow Herald some anecdotes of that period. not so long ago. when women knew nothing of golf One lady, making sympathetic conversation at dinner, said to keen golfer: Il often see you in your red coat. Do you need many dogs to play golf?" A younger lady said she knew exactly how the game was played. 'They get what they call a caddier to hunt about in the grass till they find round stone. and then they hit it into rabbit hole" A third lady. who had evidently enjoyed near CT view of the game, said: "1t is play ed by two men. One is gentleman and the other is common man. The common man sticks ball on a lump of dirt, and the gentleman knocks it off!' Westminster Gazette

PANGOLlNS OF AFRICA.
Curious Anteaters That Train With
 tho Owls and Bats.

tho Owls and Bats.
 It is perhaps just as well to know what pangolin is. although one is not likely to meet it outside of Africa or the London geological gardens. The latter establishment has one of these rare mammals and Is very proud of it. This specimen is of the particular ly rare variety with the rather inele- gant given name of white bellied" The pangolin is sort of anteater. whose body is covered with scales. AL though it is a mammal, stranger ask ed to make all offhand diagnosis would certainly call it lizard.
 The white bellied pangolin trains with the owl and bats and sleeps dur ing the daytime. When sleeping it is rolled up into an object about the size of large croquet ball. and in this po- sition, owing to its plating of pointed scales. is about as easy to attack or handle as hedgehog The sharp pointed scales give it somewhat the appearance of an animated fir cone." Its natural food appears to be white ants, but in captivity it thrives on chopped raw meat and eggs. It is.ar- boreal and wonderful climber with it's clawed feet and prehensile tail.
 It seems to have no value to the hu- man race except as a curiosity, al- though perhaps the natives in Africa eat it as they do most everything else that by any stretch of the imagination can be called edible-worms, ants, lizards, snakes. etc., ad nauseam.-New York Post.

ENGLAND'S CURIOUS WELL.
It's Water Never at the Same Level
 For Two Consecutive Minutes.

For Two Consecutive Minutes.
 Two miles out from Settle, on the main road between that town and In gleton. Yorkshire. England, there is to be found one of the most curious of natural phenomena in the shape of the famous ebbing and flowing well of Gig gleswick.
 A small. unpretentious little struc- ture. scarcely to be distinguished from the ordinary trough of water to be seen on many of our country roads. it is yet one of the most quaint and fascinating spectacies one could hope to see. As the name implies. the well has the na- ture of a tide. It ebbs and flows con tinually, though by no means with reg ularity.
 Sometimes the privileged traveller will see the oblong stone basin filled with clear water; then. even as he gazes into its pellucid depths. the wa ter gradually sinks until the trough is half empty. or it may be more. There is barely time to wonder at this strange thing ere with a rush and whirl, the trough is again full. The ebb and flow continue with more or less marked ef- feet. and the water is never at the same level for two consecutive min utes. Sometimes the outflow has scarcely begun before the basin again fills, but at other times the trough Is almost emptied = Wide World Maga- zine
