BUCK THE LINE HARD.
People Who Do Big Things Do Not Let
Themselves Be Held.

1t was on the football field at one OF
the large colleges. a big tackle had
been brought over to the varsity field
from one Of the class elevens. 1t WAS
his first experience with the big team
He played Il fine game until the other
side had the bali. Then he did not
break through" as he should. The
coach finally stopped the play and
went over to him.
What is the trouble? Why don't
you get through?" he said
'"The man opposite me is not playing
fair. He is holding me-" said the
tackle
IF he holds you again I'll put you
off the tield!' flashed back the coach
OF course. as the tackle said. it is
against the rules to hold an opponent
unless he has the ball, but the coach
wanted results and not excuses. Ills
position was that man ought somehow
to break away; that no man must irr
himself be held. And that is true. no
one ought to let himself be held The
excuse may be excellent, but Il player
who is held is put out Of the game as
effectively as if he were off the field
He might just rs we'll be off the field
The people who accomplish things
worth while in the world are those
who will not let themselves be held
There have always been things enough
to hold them. They might have found
excellent excuses. but they have moi,
had to use any eXcuses.-YOuth's Com

CITTA VECCHIA.
Ma.ta's Ancient Capital con.tan. Re.

Ma!ta's Ancient "a ptaI Constant Re-
minder of St. Paul.
The place where Publius, the chief
man Of Malta in st. Paurs day, lived
is thought to be Citta Vecchia the an
Gent capital. 1t lies near tie center
Of the island, about midway between
Valetta and st. Paurs bav, and is con-
nected with Valetta by a railroad.
Here every turn reminds US Of st.
Paul. The principal square Is called
Piazza San Paolo, and here we find a
fine cathedral, which is said to be built
on the very site Of the house of Pub
Illus. Entering the cathedral, we see
great image Of st. Paul, covered with
silver cloth, q reminder by contrast
perhaps of how little of that precious
metal be was possessed Of in his life
time.
In a nearby suburb of Citta Vecchia
is another church dedicated to St.
Paul and named for him, which the
inhabitants devoutly believe is built
over the very grOtto In which he lived
during his three months on the island,
and the catacombs Of the grotto are
also called after his name.
One striking monument to the apos-
tie reminds every passing traveller Of
this wonderful story. In the bay Of
st. Paul is tiny island called Selmun,
and on this island is towering statue
Of the apostle, which can be seen from
far, Il fit emblem of the colossal char
acter which in all the ages since has
so influenced and blessed the world

The number four was anc1ently es-
teemed the most perfect Of all, being
the arithmetical mean between one and
seven. Omar, the second cal1ph, said,
''Four things come not back-the
spoken word, the sped arrow, the past
life, the neglected opportunity" In
nature there are four seasons and the
four points Of the compass.
Forty, multiple Of four by ten, IL
one Of the sacred numbers. The pro-
baton of our first parents in the gar
den Of Eden IS supposed to have been
forty years. The rain fell at the deiuge
forty days and nights, and the water
remained on the earth forty days.
The days Of embalming the dead were
forty. Solomon's temple was forty
cubits long. In it were ten LAYERS,
each four cubits long and containing

West Virginia family, has a large
personal following, enjoys the CON
tldencc of the leading men Of the
state, and is exceptionally we'll
equipped III every way for the po-

the office of secretary Of state for
eight years under both Charles w.
Swisher and Stuart +. Reed. His
familiarity with the office places
him i'll unique position; no one in
the state is quite 50 able to govern
that important department of the
work as Mr.. Young.
When Mr.. Young was first men
toned for this office, during the
regular session Of the legislature,
he underwent thorough investi-
CATION on the part of many promi-
nent men and the fact that no OBJ
lection has been filed to his candi-

MAN LOST ON SEWARD TRAIL
 SAID TO BE MIKE SAUTILLO

Some weeks ago The Pioneer published rumor to the effect that a man had been lost on the Seward Iditarod trail, some where in the vicinity of where men had perished in previous winters. Dllgent ln- quiry failed to reveal anything definite about the matter, or even the name of the supposed victim. The Seward Gateway of March IS brings the first news tending to confirm the rumor That paper says:
 Mike Sautillo is beliveed to have per ished on the trail during a storm about the 9th of February, while on the way to ldlt arod from Seward Captain U. G. Norton, who arrived last evening in Seward, met Sautillo near Anderson's roadhouse. Sau- tilo went on to Richardson's roadhouse and left there again. He never turned up at Vogler's. and it is feared that he lost his fife between the two places north of Delzell creek. as a storm sprang up about the tune he got to that point. Sautllol came out from Nome last fall and was on his way to that camp again. He was beating his way at the roachouses, or rather he was "humming" his way on the plea that he was broke. He was refused lodging at some of the roadhouses as he had beaten his way over the same trail before when he was be- heved to have had several hundred dollars in his possssion. At least, that IS the reason why some of the roadhouse keepers refused to give him shelter and food again. He has two children in Seattle, but they are fairly well grown up"

DOGS ATTACK YOUNG BOY
 ON FAIRBANKS GREEK

The Fairbanks News Miner of March l9 contains the following, which will be read with interest by Iditarod people at this par ticular time:
 Five -year-old Austin Gibbs, Jr., was at tackled by two dogs this morning on Fair banks creek and badly bitten, so much so shat he is now en route to the city for proper medical attention. Nothing serious is anticipated, but his wounds need dressing and proper care as precaution agalnst the usual dangers from animal bites.
 "The little fellow lives on 9 below, Fair banks creek, or about two miles and half below the store of Egan X Griffin. He started over to a neighboring cabin this morning some time between S3O and 3 o'clock, taking some papers to his friends, Louis Larson and Gus Soderbloom. They have two dogs which were loose and they immediately began playing around the boy, with the result that their play became an attack, and they began biting him. One of his ears was bitten, his head and neck received several bites, and in some way hls back was injured.
 His cries brought Soderbloom and Lar son to the rescue. As 1t was seen that the little fellow was bitten, arrangements were made to send him to town, and with five dog team he was soon en route to Gilmore station, there to catch the train. Soder- bloom and Austin Gibbs, Sr., are accom- panying him to the city, and a physician has been arranged for to take care of the unfortunate boy as soon as the train gets in.
 ''The dogs gre said by residents of Fair banks creek to be halfbreeds, with some malamute in their blood, and it is further stated that they have been tied up as rule this winter. The attack is most distressing one for all concerned"
