ANCIENT CANNON WILL OCCUPY \ PROMINENT
 POSITION, NILE PsRk
RUSSIAN GUN TO BE PLACED oN PERMANENT BASE-USED ON
 COOK INLET WEARS AGO

Alaska was discovered about a cen tury and a quarter ago by Russian hunters. Sailing east from the coast of Siberia they first came upon the Aleutian Archipelago, which they took possession of in the name of the Czar. Having established themselves on these islands, and having thoroughly subjugated, and partially Ch-is1anized the docile natives, they pushed far ther east, found and explored the ex- tensive coast line Of the mainland. and after many hard fights with the warlike tribes Of those regions, esrab- lished ports in Boring sea and the No. Pacific. The Russian government granted to these early adventure-s special rights in regard to the terri tory which they had discovered for the Crown.
 Here and there penal colonies were established and forts erected in which cannon were placed at prominent points. One such colony was estab- lished on Cook Inlet, and until quar- ter of a century ago, relics of the col ony and fort were still standing. Am ong these were a number of Russian cannon, one of which was possessed by MT Whorf. He brought it 7n 10 Seward many years ago and turned il over to a local organization. About 15 years ago the cannon came into the hands of Igloo No. g, Pioneers Of Alaska. For awhile the cannon was mounted and placed on exhibition down by the Alaska Railroad depot but of more recent years, it disappear ed from the sight of man.
 The cannon, however, has been res urrected and a permanent resting place, of concrete, has been built for it in Nile Park where all may gaze upon the relic of old, about which his tory has been made, and reflect on those stirring days. The cannon mea- sures four feet in length and weighs about 75O pounds and is, naturally. Of the muzzle-loading type. The gun carriage has been painted atop of the base and within a few days the can non will be mounted.

clear stream which flows through
the city. Since the day when it was
built by Emanuel Schikaneder with
money which he had earned as H.
brettist of Mozart's 1.-THE Magic
Flute" this theater has occupied an
internationally important and most
unique position among the stages of
the world.
1t was in the Theater an der Wien
that Beethoven's "Fidelio' made its
debut before a most critical audience
in November, 1905. Also it was here
that Franz List gave his first pi-
anoforte recital at the age of IL.
From this theater Maria Jeritza
started her operate career.

V|VELAORLEANS,
sS CRY RINGING IN
STREETS OF PARIS
Long Live the Queen
Shouts Throng as Ouch
esS Rides BY.

PARIS, Aug. 1S.-"Long live the
queen-long live the queen OF
France"
Young men doff their hats as this
cheer echoes through the Paris
streets. The cheer is for smiling
lady dressed in mourning, driving
along in an open carriage.
There are those who take very seri-
ously this street tribute to Princess
Isabelle d'Orleans, Duehess of Guise.
They think the time soon Is coming
when the 50-year-old republic will be
overthrow and the country will go
back to monarchy.
Jean Pierre, Due de Guise, would
mount the throne as Jean III, should
this day come. He now is the head
of the House Of Orleans and Bour-
bon.
Feeling of Disgust
France is in bad way. She
cant get her currency Strengthened
out, for one thing. Throughout the
country a great feeling of disgust
is being manifested towards the poll
MRians who run Parliament. =
1.-The Action Franchise" Royalist
newspaper, increasingly proclaims
that the only solution to French
troubles is to have king. And even
good republicans privately admit
they fear the growth Of the royalist
sentiment.
In the army, the church, and in
high society distinct royalist leanings
crop out from time to time.
It's among the working classes in
the big cities and the small peasant
farmers that republicanism most
strongly persists.
Duke Of Orleans
When the Duke of Orleans died
some months ago, the Dug de Guise
at, once became the pretehder to the
throne.
The government limited to him
thereupon that he no longer was
welcome on French soil AS a re-
suit he now lives in Brussels
His lovely wife has remained in
Paris, however Her salon Is one of
the most frequented in the capital
She works INCREASINGLY for the ad-
vancement of her husbands inter-
ests, and young royalists have made
II part of their duty to give Princess
Isabelle an ovation whenever she ap-
pears on the streets. They serve as
cheer leaders, and many bystanders
join In.
No woman has so charmed the
boulevard crowds since Empress
Eugene was at the height of her
youth, beauty and power.

eight oranges which are fully ripe.
