To be sure, most of them were be-

little matter of few years amount to
if Pershing needed them? A man is

WanderIust Again Upon Them.

WanOcFluSt Again upon ncHl.
Since that memorable 6cy of de-
lirous celebration, the Alaskans have
found the routine work of tie camps
becoming more and more irksOme and
disagreeable, and now with the ap-
proach of spring the wanderlust is
again upon them. They yearn to be
back where they can hear the call of
the moose and the gurgling Of the
sluice box.
An Alaskan never goes at anything
half-heartedly. He is a whole-hog-or-
nothing sort of person. He has an
utter disregard Of expense, and if he
hasn't any money of his own he very
cheerfully borrows it from some other
sourdough, who just as cheerfully
lends it.
These propensities of the Alaskan
account for the manner in which the
telegraph lines to Washington have
been congested for several months
past The Alaskan rarely writes
letter-he uses the telegraph. The
Northerners have invented at least
million different reasons why they
should be Immediately discharged
from service.
Keep Worrying Everybody.

confine themselves to personal effort

small party of whites was fired
upon by negroes, estimated to have
numbered about rs. Reports that
one negro had been killed by shots

confirmed.
City and county officials express
ed the belief that there would be no
further trouble. Additional troops
are held in readiness at Terrell.
Texas rangers are expected to re-
lieve the soldiers tomorrow.
