The Pansy.

Plant historians have never yet set
tied to their satisfaction just how the
pansy originated. 1t was known as a
garden flower in England fully three
centuries ago, and the probability Is
that it was developed from a certain
species Of violet with tricolored petals
which Is still to be found growing
wild along British waysides and In
other parts of northern Europe.
The old herbalist Gerade, describing
the "pansie, or hearts ease" as be
knew 1t, says quantity that 1t has
"fowers in form and figure like the
violet and for the most part of the
same bignesse, OF three sundry colors--
that is to say, purple, yellow and white
or blue-by reason Of the beautie and
braverierof which colors they are pleas
inr to the eye. For smell they have
little or none at all. The root is moth

throIdy strings "-LonsaGn Graphic.

 OF UNTOLD WEALTH TO NATION

On March 30 1867. while violent political storm was enveloping his administration, as result of dis agreement in relation to recons.ruc- ton in the south, Andrew Johnson, seventeenth president of the United States, and immediate successor of Abraham Lincoln, communicated, in the form of a message to the house Of representatives and the senate, the astonishing fact that d treaty had been negotiated with Russia under the terms of which all of that na- tion's possessions in North America might be acquired by the United States. The only formality necessary to the consummation of the coaven- ton was ratification by the senate. At the time, almost any act in which might have had a hand would have failed to obtain the commendation of the radical republican" ma ajority in congress, and the purchase of Russian America was II first put down as characteristics Johnsonian misconcep- ton of he needs of the country.

, acquisition of the territory was the realization of a long cherished dream. As a variant for the phrase, John sons Foolishness," ,"the transaction with Russia was sometimes called Sew nrdls Folly" Nevertheless, lcalmer
 reflection, and able and eloquent advo- cacy by Senator Charles Sumner of Massachusetts, brought about the rat ification of the treaty Toward the close of his speech, tou:hing on the name of the newly acquired posses sion Sumner said.
 As these extensive possessions. constituting a corner of the continent, pass from the imperial government of Russia they will naturally receive a new name. They will no longer be called? Clearly any name borrowed from classical history or individual invention will be little better than a misnomer, or a nickname unworthy of such an occasion. Even if taken from our own history i: will be of doubtful taste. The name should come from the country itself. It should be indigenous, aboriginal. one of the autochthons of the soil. Happily such name exists which is as proper in sound as in origin. 1t appears in the report of Cook. the illustrious navigator to whom l have so often referred that the euphobious name now applied to the peninsula which is the continental link of the Aleu- tian chain was the sole word used originally by the native islanders when speaking of the American continent in general. which they knew perfectly well :o be a great land. It only re- mains that following these natives whose places are now ours, We, too, shall call this great land Alaska.
 And Alaska it was called. New Archangle, later known as Sitka was the principal settlement under Rus sia. It long remained the principal settlement under the United States. Very little was heard of the territory after interest in it's purchase subsided, until the gold discoveries on Klondke creek, tributary of the Yukon, on August 16, 1896 or for nearly gen eration after the signing of the treaty of purchase Then there was wild rush of prospectors, miners, and ad- venturers into the new country; vil- lages towns and cities spring up over night and within two years the Klon- dike region alone yielded more than slO,0 1000, 900 in yellow metal. It is esti- mated that, to date, the mineral pro- duction of Alaska aggregates about $35O, ,000, 900, but mine production con- stitutes but single item in the 4>i- askan industrial account of the pres ent day.
