IDITAROD MAIL Is
 COMING THROUGH SEWARD
Seventy Five Or One Hundred Sacks Waiting For Shipment Over
 The Trail

The mail for the Iditarod is now com ing through Seward and has been piling up in the post office here for the past two weeks as navigation on the Yukon has been closed. Post master Hickey says that the accumul- ation of the mail has caused ser ious congestion in the office as the amount of space provided is not suf- ficient for all the purposes. The Iditarod mail must also be worked over in this office so that the staff is somewhat over crowded, particularly when the mails going in different directions and coming for the various places must be handled together. The amount of mail for the Iditarod which has now accumulated in the local of- fee is about 75 or 100 sacks.

Seorns American Capital.

National Magazine: AS a charac-
~teristic instance of how the ,Chileans
regard is, let me quote a story told
me by a member Of the Boston ham
Der Of commerce party. This gentle
man. speaking to one Of the highest
Chile did not desire capital to be in
vested in that country by the Ameri-
cans. The Chilean minister replied:
why, no; we do not need any capital
from North America. We are getting
along very well without it"
But" said the Boston man, 1--WE
have a great deal of money invested in
mines in your country" YES" re-
piled the Chilean, but what do we
into the Chiquecamata copper mines.
The copper will all go to North Ameri-
ca, the salaries Of most of the men will
go to North America; the food that
the Chilean workmen a comes from
the United States; the stocks of the
mines are all in the United States, and
in the end all that Chile will get will
be a big hole in the ground"
Now remark this, that the Chilean
is a combination of four fighting races
first, the S%paniard, then the Arau-
canaan Indian, the only Indian that al
ways defeated the white man and new
er was conquered himself: then the
German; then the Englishman. That's
the Chilean. You beat that for a good
fighting man, and you've got to be 60
ing some. The Chilean isn't afraid of
England; isn't afraid of the United
States; isn't afraid Of Argentina, isn't
afraid of anything. Moreover, he lives
in the south temperate zone almost en-
tirely the same climate rs the United
States-rain and snow and six months
of winter in the south,

from which she made a bonnet that
she sold for 25 cents. With this money
she bought more calico, and made
more bonnets. After she had made
several dollars in this way she de-
termined to raise potatoes. She did
all the work in the field except the
blowing. The venture was a success,
and she had enough money to start at
school. She did not stop work, how
ever, and it is not surprising that a
girls of so much determination was
able to borrow enough money to sup
plement what she made.
