as well as by the musician, and inter-
preted by the most accomplished art

Alaska,s Heroes

Some psychologists have declared that there is no such a thing as an ab. solutely uu5eldsb action, and that no one is ever moved by purely altruistic emotion. Probably those psychologists have gained this opinion from study of their own sentiments, for it is quite certain that such a conclusion could not have been reached from a thorough study of the class of humanity that is represented by the sturdy American pioneers, says the Alaska Citizen.
 No better test of recent times has been made of men's unsel8shuess than Chat which was made when the search was recently being carried on for the body of Mrs. Lizzie Stropp following the snowslide near Wortmans in which she and P o Bergluud were killed. Exposed to a bitter cold and dangers of more slides, a large force of men worked night and day for several days to uncover Der body These men re- ceived nothing for their efforts, except the food they ate while at work, and that was provided for them by the mayor of Valdez
 It was not because these men knew the victims of ibe slides personally or that they could expect in any manner any sort of reward, hat they nader went such severe hsrdsbips. There was not even the possible chance that lhe world would yer know oftheir connec. ton with the difficult task. They per formed the work and suffered night and day the intense cold through the prompuugs of their unselfsh human. ity.
 Many a general and many am admiral have been immortalized for less bravery aud less personal sacrifice than marked the heroic efforts of these worthy Alaskane, who have returned to their daily routine in life without any effort Co let the world know of their identity.
