CHIEF JORDAN RETURNS
 WITH NATIVE PRISONER.

Chief Marshal E. R. Jordan of this District arrived yesterday on return trip from far St. Michaels, whither he had gone on official bus mess.
 The Chief, of course, mushed oyer with his well matched racers and returned debonair ose ever, re- porting an excellent trip having left Nome on the 14th and spending some time in St. Michaels. He says ke had ideal weather, and con- trary to the plaints of most hush CTS, an excellent trail, all the way except for about three miles.
 It is Of interest locally that at Bonanza the chief encountered Henry Burgh who was suffering from a severe cold which he attri- buted to sleeping out.
 The Marshal brought a prisoner with him from St. Michaels, young Scmie Ligiiuk for confinement in the Federal Jail here: The boy was charged with a statutory offense.

The years may enter not her
 shrine;
 Forever, fair and young she
 stands, And with her gracious, girlish
 hands
 Folds tenderly the Child Divine Her lips are warm with mother
 love,
 And blessedness; and from her
 eyes, Looks the mute questioning sur
 prise, Of ono who hears a voice above, Life's voices-from the throng apart,
 Listens to Gods low, whispered Strange message, by no other heard And keeps His secret in her heart. Sweet Mother, years have fled Since the great painter dropped his brush Left earth's loud praise for Heav- ems kind hush,
 While men bewailed Him-'early dead!

In Praise of Music.

Music adds nothing but good; sub tracts the evil; multiplies that which we already have; discounts our ail- ments and compounds all of our inter- est. If you believe this is true, push" music. Aid the choir, choral and or chestral societies. Sylnpathize with and in every way support public school music.
 A foreign traveller in our country said he was deeply impressed with our silences. He heard no reapers sing ing in the field, he heard many bird carol, but no human songs. That re minds me of the old saying: "Blessec is the man who sings at his work" Take an interest in creating musi- cal atmosphere in the home, and soon America will be S. ging and we shall be able to take in music not only by the small channel of the ear, but through every pore of our bodies straight to the root of our souls.-The Musician.

NO TRUTH IN TRADITION
Old Legend of the Drowning of Prin- cess in Petrograd Fortress Proved
 to Be Without Foundation.

The fortress of SS. Peter and Paul, in Petrograd, has an evil reputation as the former place of Imprisonment of many of Russia's idealsts, includ- ing Prince Kropotkin and Madame Breshkovsky; but one blot on it's 'scutcheon is removed by an illustrated article in the London Sphere. The article reproduces a painting by the Russian artist FlavitslSy, showing beautiful woman standing on her bed in cell in this prison, seeking to es- cape the rising waters of flood that threatens her life. This was the Prin- cess Tarakanova who had incurred the enmity of Catherine the Great. The tradition is that she was drowned, by order of the empress, during the in undation of TIT. The Sphere, how ever, shows that she died of tuberculo- sis two years before the flood swept through the fortress. Thus this gloomy prison and the great empress are re lieved of one of the tragedies with which they have been associated The Outlook.

I;int 10 Mothers.

Let us never be like the mother wfIu s;llu her boy was not interested i'll any thing. For the boys teacher when she called noticed that he had box which he seemed to take care of, and it was not long before sine learned that it was collection of caterpillars. Yet the mother said that her boy was interested in nothing. The teacher at once showed her pupil that she, too, was interested in his collecti )n. She learned from the boy a great many things about caterpillars that she did not know, and in turn taught him things he did not know. Teacher and boy became great friends; through this common interest others sprang up and the boy changed from sullen snattentive boy to broad-minded, wide-awake man. If the mother could only have shared her boys interest, how much more helpful they would have been to each other.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

ROOM FOR MANY MILLIONS
Vast Spaces of Siberia That Have Yet to Be Surveyed and Exploited
 by Man.

The biggest and loneliest land on the globe is Siberia, of which at the present moment there is so much talk, says London Answers. Any one who would set about it's conquest by in- vasion would find the task herculean one, for it contains nearly five mil lion square miles, and is about 40 times as big as the British isles!
 In these vast spaces there is popu-- lation less than London contains by a couple of millions, and there are hun dreds of thousands of square miles of territory where no human being is to be seen. The mighty rivers of Siberia are almost rendered useless by the fact that they flow mostly into the Arctic ocean, and their lower courses are icebound during the greater part of the year, and their mouths are at all times very difficult of access. Arc tic Siberia is vast country in itself, but very inhospitable.
 Siberia, it is said is destined to be the granary of the world; and the opening of the railway across its en- tire breadth has certainy done much to develop it's resources.
