TEACH MERCY
 AND KINDNESS

PITTSBURG, Pa, March 9. - "Ten Commandments of Kindness" to regu- late conduct toward animals have just been issued by the Department of Humane Education, Presbyterian Church of the United States. The commandments point out mans duty to animals and are published with a view toward minimizing useless cruel ty and killing
 The commandments are:
 Thou shalt not deal cruelty with the creatures of Gods creation, placed under thy dominion, but in kindness, justice and mercy shalt thou adminis- ter they guardianship over beast. bird and cattle seeking to serve in the spirit of thy Creator. 2-Thou shalt not delight myself in graven images but rather in tender mercies to those who depend upon thy guardianship. Thou shalt not lay blame or punishment unwarrant- ed and who have no means of assert ing their rights, wherefore thou are to them the adjudicator of righteous ness in their midst; for the Lord thy God is jealous God, remembering thy unfaithhfulness and thy cruelties to all His creatures and visiting the errors of thy way upon thy children down through the generations, in that thou has set a bad example unto them and hast by word and deed led them to disrespect justice and mercy in deal ing with defenseless creatures.
 3-Thou shalt not curse thine cattle nor inflict vengeance upon any of Gods creatures for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who disregard his creation.
 4-Remember the sabbatical rights of Gods creatures and pratice them secretly. Every beast of burden and every animal in thy service shall have it's days and fitting seasons of rest whereby the drudge of toll in thy ser vice may be comfortably mingled with the joy of living. With reason and consideration thou shalt assign their tasks and with equal care thou shalt provide food, rest. succor, mercy and those things which make, for the natural inv OP livinp
 5-Honor and respect thy guardian ship over the animals which have been thy faithful servants and desert them not in an evil day; for by so doing thou mayest prolong thy days and increase thy joys in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. 6-Thou shalt not kill, for the joy of killing; for the sport of killing; for the contest in skill; for the sell fish gain. For the righteous man re- gardeth the life of his beast. 7-Thou shalt not commit myself to the lusts of bloody contests nor seek to look upon the cock-fight. the live pigeon shoot, the bull-fight and all such atrocious acts.
 S-Thou shalt not steal destroy, nor take unto myself or wantonly that which belongs to the comfort and >neds of thy animals.
 9-Thou shalt not bear false witness for paltry gain to myself whereby Gods creatures suffer hunger, an guish or torture. Let the testimony of thy guardianship be above thy lust for gain.
 1O-Thou shalt not covet the birds plummage, nor the animals fur; thou shalt not covet the robins nest nor her young by her side, nor the pigeon the freedom of the air, nor the deer the iov of the lair

E. c. at Seward stat ing that they would give employment to the husbands of the prospective con- tractors
 Mr. Horner conferred with the au-  thorities of tn eA. E. c. and was in formed that they had not authorized such contracts and had sent no wires to any one to that effect, and knew nothing of the mysterious MT. Wilde

 A THING OF THE PAST

Alaska is rapidly becoming civilized. The ways of the effete East are upon us. Nenana is experiencing the advent of dimes and nickels. The old days when nothing smaller than twenty-five cents would be accepted as a medium of exchange is nearing an end. The railroad has brought the change about prices having cheapened so materially as to cause need for smaller money. Fairbanks is the only camp on the railroad where two-bits is the circulat- ing medium.
