The steamer Cordova pulled into the roadsted about eight o'clock last night on the outgoing mail and afterward de- parted for Seattle. The non- arrival of the vessel for some time after the an- nouncement that she was in sight led to much speculation and the local waterfront experts came in for some derision, but the nonappearance is ac- counted for by heavy fog which com pletely hid the vessel while still some distance out.

The schooner Anna Olga which ar rived from Teller this morning will load some necessary supplies and clear for trading trip along the coast as far east as Herschell island. Capt. Anderson is taking a. supply of muk- luks and reindeer hides from Nome to trade with the natives of the far east ern coast of the Arctic where both are in great demand. Anderson states that muckluks are scarce in that region owing to the absence of walrus which are not found much beyond Point Bar row. The muckluks made.by the coast natives command high price in trade and are always in demand. The Anna Olga will if the ice conditions are fav- orable make the journey to Herschell and return before fall Capt. Anderson says that if the season is not too far advanced he will return to Nome and refit and spend the winter in the yicin- ity of the island.

The Oil Market.
B, & 0, May Purchase
1900 Steel Hoppers

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad. it
is understood. is in the market for new
equipment which. when purchased.
will represent an expenditure of APP
proximately s2.000.OOO. Among the
items are 1000 steel hoppers. and it
is more than likely that the order will
be placed at an early date. The ordi-
nary steel hopper costs in the neigh
borhood OF $1,000.
The shops Of the company are busy
repairing cars. The number in the
shops Is large. and when they are in
condition to be put in service again
the car situation on the Baltimore and
Ohio will be still further improved.
The company is well supplied with
motive power at this time. Engines
are available to move greatly in.
creased tonnage. provided the cars are
furnished in which TO haul the traffic.
In the fall the Baltimore and Ohio
will begin TO figure on its rail require
ments for the new fiscal year.

Sterilized Coal.

Coal in the mines is one Of the
things freest from germs. old-time
doctors used to notice coal miners
wounds healed fast, though beGrimed
and besmeared with coal dust. For a
long time it has been thought that
breathing in coal dust caused !un5 dis
eases in miners. Some experts find
fresh Goa! is as good IS steTilized, and
say miners have lung trouble because
they do not take the trouble TO put
off their damp and sweaty clothing oe-
fore going from the nine to cheir
homes, thus taking cold in the open
air walk. Experts say our miners
ought TO put OF warm and dry clothes
at the mouth Of the mine But IT
seems the miners have minds Of their
own. and although the coal companies
in some places fixed up hot and cold
water baths and dressing rooms at the
mouth of the mines the men would
not use them, but went home to wash
and dress. as had been their custom
for generations.

REALLY NOT SMITHS FAULT
Mrs. comnuter Had Blamed Him I'm.
duly, and Now She Wants the
Law Changed.

Even in town the commuters wife
had been subject to violent likes and
dislikes, but in the suburbs her preju'
dice seemed intensified Their neigh
Dor on the left was the object OF her
sincerest aversion. 7 think he is the
most selfish man ever met" she
said. Such contrast to Mr.. Brown
on our right, who is the soul OF neigh
borly kindness"
ION what do you base your est
mats Of their character" her hus-
band asked.
Fences" said she. Just look at
Mr.. Browns fence. He has kept all
the ugly posts and crossboards on his
own side and has presented the
smooth finished surface to US. But
you don't catch Mr.. Smith doing that
No, indeed. He looks out for num-
Der one and keeps the nice side for
himself, while We get all the rough
patchwork"
But that is not Smiths fence" her
husband argued. 1T Is ours"
"Ours?" she echoed. How does
that happen?"
1T happens through legal statute
which provides that every man VINO
wants his property fenced in must
build part Of the fence and keep the
ragged edges on his own side. That
Gs the law"
How perfectly ridiculous" she
said. IF we continue to live in the
country isn't there some way It can
be changed?"
