A Museum Sensation.

There was a sensational incident in
the British museum on Feb. 7, 1876
the disastrous attack by visitor on
the priceless Barberini vase, belonging
to the Duke of Portland. As there was
no law then for the punishment of
such an act of vandalism, a fine Of Is
(the value of the glass case) could only
be imposed. But 1t led to the passing
of art from similar danger.-London

ALASKA'S COAST LINE.
Longer Than the Distance Round the
World at the Equator.


Have you any idea of the extent Of
the Alaska coast line? The shores of
the territory are washed by three great
oceans. These are the Arctic ocean on
the north, Boring sea on the west and
the Pacific on the south. The Aleutian
islands. of the Alaska peninsula. are
separated from each other and the
mainland by a network of rocky straits
and much of southwestern and south
eastern Alaska is made up Of noun
famous islands that have rocks of all
shapes and sizes. The islands are real
ly the tops of mountains half lost In
the waters. They rise in spires and ca
thedrals, some of which are thousands
of feet above the water and others hid
den beneath 1t, lying there concealed
and ready to rip open the hulls of ships
the Titanic.
The extent of the Alaska coast with
its windings surpasses that of the
United States proper. 1t Is greater
than that Of all our states .on the Pa
cific from Puget sound TO the bound
| airy of Mexico added to that of our
states on the Atlantic, including the
gulf All told, ii is more than 10000
miles long, or longer than the distance
around the world at the equator, and
In proportion to its length 1t has per
haps more dangers than any Other
coast line on earth.
Nevertheless not one-half of 1t has
yet been sounded by the coast survey
vessels, and more than half of the gen
eral coast line is not marked by lights
or by any aids to navigation.-Chris

AUTOMOBILE OFF BRIDGE.

saturday night at the close of the
performance of "The Hoodoo,' Clark
LYDIA who was returning to his home
near Freedom, in his automobile, went
off the bridge that crosses White Bird
creek at the foot of Main street. 1t
had been raining and the approach to
the bridge was quite slick and muddy
and when Mr.. LYDIA turned the car onto
the bridge it skidded across and off at
the other side, Fortunately the tele-
phone pole that stands at the side of
the bridge held the car in an upright
position, and in this manner the occu-
pants of the car escaped perhaps serious
injury. la Mr.. LYDIA ear besides
himsen were Mr.. and Mrs. George Tip
ton and babe, Rus Rice and Ben Large
Immediately behind them Fred Lydia
was driving Rus Rice's car.
After an hour work the car was re-
moved to the road and after an over
hauling it was discovered the car was
not damaged. The two driver made
another attempt to return to their home
but after crossing the bridge the grade
proved to be so slippery they returned
to White Bird and remained all night

played between the Freedom team and
a team made up of the high school team
and some of the convict camp. The
battery being F. Ryan and A. Reid,
both convicts. The game resulted in
the score of to in favor of Freedom.
It was certainly a closely contested
game and one of the best that has been
played on the local diamond for some
time.
Immediately following this game the
the high school team played the bust
ness men, the high school boys coming
off victorious.
The game, however, proved quite
disastrous to some of the players.
While both were running to catch the
same ball, Monty Shuck, who was pitch
ing and Guy Behean, playing first base,
collided putting both boys out of COM
mission for the remainder of the game
Soon after Homer Newman was hit
with the ball just above the left eye
The ball hit him with such force the
skin was bursted, causing quite pain

THE VALUE OF TRUTH

Truthin businessis just as important as truth in everyday life; truth creates confidence, establishes goodwill and builds a reliability that will not be wrecked by the storms of competition.
 Through three generations people have learned to place reliance on the advertised words of Scott's Emulsion, because they are untarnished, unex- aggerated truisms about a household remedy of real and actual worth.
 The popularity of Scott's Emulsion Is increasing as intelligence advances, because in these days of adulterations it continues to guarantee pure cod liver oil incidentally perfected with g1ycerine and hypophosphites to build strength, i11- prove the blood and strengthen the lungs. Itis free from alcohol or opiates-a whole some food-tonic, truthfully advertised.

SCHIFF DENOUNCES
 NEW RUSSIAN LOAN
Calls Is One of Most Insidious Pieces of Financing Ever Done In
 This Country.

New York, Feb. 29.-Negotiations pending between the Russian govern ment and New York banking institu- tions, having as their aim the placing of large sums to Russia's credit here were severely condemned yesterday by Jacob H. Schiff, head of Kuhn, Loeb & Co.
 The projected loan, according to Well-founded reports, will take two fOrms-the first, an acceptance credit of between $30, 100000 and $60,000.- 900; the other, direct loan with Russian railway securities as collater- al, to have the guarantee of the Rus sian government. This financing may range between $1OO, ,OO0,O00 and $200,- 0O0,0OO.
 If the report that a large Russian credit is now on the eve of being con- cluded proves correct" said MT. Schiff, ''it will be one of the most in sldlous pieces of financing ever done in this country. Whoever is going to take part in it will have no cause to be proud of the help he is going to give the Russian government.
