He had always wondered what the
child would be like. Howard's half
yearly letters had always assumed too
much for granted. Mark had practi-
cally relinQuished Eleanor to the Ma
jor. and he had never learned anything
about her that he had really wanted to
know. He had not imagined the pre-
cocious, hIgh-strung. idealistic girl
whom he now saw. He knew that the
disclosure of her fathers dishonor, II
ever 1t came about, would shock her
Into a revulsion of feeling that would
be fatal to the true development Of
her character.
He had often wished that he had not
pressed that idea of the regimental
mascot upon the major. 1t had been
born in a mind attuned to the victory
Of that bloody day; in normal mQr
ments he would never have enter
tanned 1t. Yet Major Howard had
been more impressed than he had ad-
mitted to Mark. The idea had
spread through the minds Of the other
officers. There was never a Guard din
ner but Eleanor was solemnly toasted.
though she was not permitted to be
present, and somehow the child had
become a symbol in the minds Of these
plain men in business and professional
life who spent two weeks in camp
each year.
After the war Mark had gone to the
regulars; but he was still in touch
with the officers of the Seventieth. and
he knew that, IL ever war came, he
could obtain an appointment to It.
'T am sure that my father will prove
to have been a brave soldier" said
Eleanor, clasping her hands eagerly.
"And sometimes" she continued, II
think that there must have been q
great mystery about him."
"Why?" demanded Mark, startled.
''Because OF the man who watches
for me-"

She shook her head. 'T've seen him

girl. "He waits at places that we pass

with being largely responsible for re-
cent great development of the traffic

mated that more than 37,5OO,OO0
pounds of pork were added to the ma

cal year that ended June 80. although
regulations were modified to help the
industry only on January 2. Further
notable growth of the traffic Is ex-
pected.
During the fiscal year. ending June

hog cholera by inspectors of the bu-
reau of animal industry at public
stock yards and shipped to country
points for feeding and breeding phr-
poses. The average weight of these
animals at the time of <mmunizatlon
was approximately 100 pounds. Prob
ably 250.OOO of the number were
shipped for feeding purposes and later
were returned to the markets at an
average weight of $50 to 275 pounds,
giving an approximate total increase
of from 37,5OO,O00 to 43.50O.OO0 pounds

RAILROAD WORKERS
OFF FOR NEW TOWN

Among the outgoing passengers
on the steamer Yukon today were
three former employees of the Alas
kan Engineering commission, who
are headed for the Portland Canal
district, which is attracting consid-
cradle attention along the Alaska
coast just now. The trio will go
direct to Hyder, and from there
across the line to the mines, sew
eral of which are said to be in
process of development on large
scale
The three men are John Lind
quist, a former member of Sur
facing Gang No. ?; Fred Johnson,
who has been firing on the 208 dur
ing the past couple of years, and

NOTHING TO STAMPEDE TO
HYDER FOR.

While the activities of this sum-
mer at Hyder are very satisfac-
tory and the indication are that a
good mining camp will be developed
in the Salmon River district at the
head of Portland canal, there have
been no developments there that
would warrant a stampede, warns
a writer in a coast paper. The
country down there has been staked
for many years. Development work
has been in progress on various
properties off and on for a half
dozen years. The indications have
been good all along. This year
there has been more development
work than ever, and the results
more satisfactory. The Premier
mine, controlled by Mr.. Neil, has
been shipping ore, and it is said
it has s15,000,000 worth of ore
blocked out and ready to mine. The
Big Missouri, Joker, and Forty-Nine
groups have shown well under de-
velopment, and the indications are
equally favorable for other proper
ties.
However, it takes capital to de-
velop lode mines, and lots of time.
At the present time, Hyder offers
many inducements to the capitalist
and mining engineer, but there e
little there for the average man,
and it is not likely that there will
be demand for a great number Of
people there this season at least.

ONE MILLION FOR ROADS.

After a very thorough survey Of
the field, in the course of which the
requests and demands for new roads
and road improvements from all the
various sections of the territory, to-
gether with their reasonableness and
practical ility, had been taken into
account, Major Waugh, president Of
the Alaska Road commission and
the practical head of all road build
ing organizations in Alaska, has es-
tinated that to meet the necessities
of the situation in this territory
will require an appropriation of
S179,0 900 from Congress next year.
and he will ask for this amount.
The largeness Of this sum. explains
the Juneau Empire. IS partly due
to the failure of Congress to ap-
propriate more than 100000 for
that purpose this year.
There should be determined eff
fort on the part of the people OF
all sections of Alaska, believes the
coast paper to get Congress to
make this appropriation. It is con-
ceded by those of all sections 81
this territory and those Of all shades
of political belief that more and
better roads are an absolute ne
cessity for development in the
North. There may be some division
of sentiment as to whether or no,

should be extended, but there is alb.
solutely none as to the need Of

/ .alaskans will have the best of
arguments, based upon right and
justice and practical common sense,
tc offer to Congress for large road
appropriations for Alaska. 1t is es-
timated that 90 percent of the
resources of this territory are the
property of the Federal Government
Every dollar expended upon roads
makes these resources easier of &C
cess and more valuable The bene-
fits, from practical dollars and
cents standpoint, to be derived from
road building in Alaska will be
many times greater to the Federal
Government than to the people now
here. The people of Alaska are
paying out vast sums annually for
road building and other public i'm
provements, and every dollar thus
expended adds many times more to
the value of the vaster resources of
the Government than to those of
the people. The Federal Govern
ment could expend million a year
in road building in Alaska for an
indefinite number of years, and still
not bear anything like its fair share
of the expense in that direction.
Let US ask Congress for one
million for roads next year, and
again the next and the next, and
right along until the situation is
fairly met.

A certain surgeon, who was very

to dinner by a lady, who was at

twenty. She imagined herself very

SyDNEY-LONDON
AERIAL ROUTE IS
BEING SURVEYED

SYDNEY, Australia.-Survey of
the route of the first section of
the projected aerial service between
Sydney and London was recently
completed The section extends
from Sydney to Darwin, which is
on the north coast of Australia and
relatively near the Malayan archi-
pelago The service will be carried
on by a Sydney company.
From Darwin the route will cross
the sea to the island of Timor, pro-
coed along the Malayan archipelago
to India, and thence run to Bagdad
or Port Said-probably the latter.
From Port Said it will cross Europe
to London. The survey of the sec
ond section of the route, from OAR
win through Malaga to Delhi, is now
going on.
1t is expected that the first flight
will be made within the next few
months, and it is planned to have
the proposed passenger and COM
mercial services in full operation
in about two years. If the COM
pany succeeds, London will be reach
ed regularly from here in six and
one-half days.
The Sydney-Darwin section is
1000 miles; but the survey party
travelled about 1000 miles in order
to select the most satisfactory land
ing places or survey stations.
When the flights are in full swing,
business between Sydney and Lon
don will be greatly facilitated, from
the fact that letters may be an
swered within two weeks of their
despatch from here.
