SEEK GOLD IN THE ARCTIC !
Adventurers Are Now Prospect'ng tho
Coasts of Baffin Bay and
Davis G trait
Ono of tho really pathetic stories of
modern history Is tho mutiny of Henry
Hudson's crew when lio was exploring
tho arctic wntcrs of North America,
and his abandonment, with his son, In
that vnst lnlnnd sea that bears his
name, a writer In tho Urooklyn Eagle
remarks. Many lives have been sacri
ficed In tho quest of tho North and
South poles. Sir John Franklin's and
tho Jeannctte's parties In the north
and the recent Scott expedition at the
south only need he mentioned.
Plans are afoot to open up the Baffin
boy region to commerce. For many
years small steamers have been mak
ing summer visits to Hudson bny to
trade with thn natives', and tho Cana
dian government Is building a railway
to one of Its ports. Hnllroad and com
mercial development of Alaska by
American enterprise has caused pros
pecting of tho mineral resources of
the coasts of IJaflln bay and Davis
strait, with tho result of finding, at the
former place, gold In milllclent quanti
ties to Justify development, and coal
of excellent quality along the latter.
Tho latitude Is about the same as that
of the Yukon region and only a few
degrees north of that of Nome, which
has developed Into a large community.
So impelling H' tho lure of gold that
the hardships of n arctic climate will
not deter adventurers from hazarding
their lives against the wealth said to
be burled under tho eternal snow and
Ico of Ilallln Island.
CHAUNCEY'S TURN TO LAUGH
Cloee-Fisted Farmor Learned Some
thing About tho Value Legal
Lighte Set on Services.
Chauncey M. Depew, In writing tho
story of his life, recnTls his llrst law
case. It was in Peeksklll. Tho client
was a farmer and ho wanted an opin
ion on certain property rights.
Dopew spent a week In looking up
the points of law that had bearing on
the case and when he had finished
charged the modest fee of $5i.
"Too much," cried the farmer.
"Hut It's taken me a whole week to
prepare this," protested Depew.
"Don't make no. difference," declared
tho farmer. "I figure $1.50 Is all It's
worth and that's all you're going to
get-
About a week Inter the man came to
the office again.
'"Mr. Depew," he said, " had somo
doubts about that opinion of yours, so
I took It down to Now York and
showed It to Mr. . And what do
you think he charged me, Just for
rcndln' that opinion of yours und put
ting his O. K. on It?"
"How much," demanded Depow, ull
excited.
"Five hundred dollars 1"
Canada's Bird Refuge.
It Is something for one bird to tell
(mother that Canada has created a
series of reserves. In tho province of
Quebec where (drds are safe from man

Unlike most bird refuges, Perce
Rock, a picturesque, island near Perce
village; tho east and north cliffs of
Bonavonturo lnlai(, three miles further
away; and the northernmost of tho
Magdalen Islands, 124 miles out to sea,
have been set npnrt specltlcally to pro
tect birds whoso value to mankind Is
chiefly their beauty as o purt of na
ture. There Is no attempt to argue, for
example, that tho ganuet, the klttl
wnko, or the razorbill auk should be
protected because they "help tho
former" ; they are protected simply be
causo they are birds.
No human being may steal an egg
from their nests; no weapon danger
ous to their welfare mny be brought
within a mile of their inland sunetu
nrles. Naturally all other birds are equally
safe, and the refuges wlU be a help
toward carrying out Hie purpose of
the International treaty for bird pro
tection. Yellowstone Park Grows.

Fish Had False Teeth.
A fish wearing false teeth was
hooked In tho Gulf of Moxlco, near In
dian Hocks, Flu., by A. L. Andorson of
Independence.
Judge Anderson wns Invited to go
out In a boat with H. II. Ingersoll, a
well known resident of Indian Hocks,
.During tho day thoy brought up n
speclmon of the "swell toud" or hurtlsh

As the hook was pulled out it brought
with It a front plato with four false
tooth attached to a gold bridge.
Later It wort learned by the aston
ished fishermen that n few days be
fore n visitor from Oldsuutr, it nrnrhy
resort, had dropped his teeth wWA

HONOR NOT ENTIRELY WATTS
At Least Two Inventors Before Him
Had the Idea of the Value of
Steam Power.
It Is a popular Idea that we owe
tho steam engine entirely to tho Inven
tive genius of James Watt.
Tho ldeu, however, Is quite errone
ous, for steam was In use as a motive
power before he come on tho scene.
Several types of steam engine were
In use, notably Savory's and New
comen's. Hut thoy were cum!erwi;'.'. extrnv
ngant, and of smnll power, and It wan
while repairing a model of n Neweuin
en engine that Watt, who was working
ns a mathematical Instrument maker
nt the time, evolved various Improve
ments, notably tho separate con
denser. Meeting Matthew Baulton, a manu
facturer of metnl goods, he entered In
to partnership and they produced en
gines, which at once established Watt's
repututlon. Improvements and inven
tions followed quickly, one after the
other, and the prcsent-dny udvuncc in
motive power is due to the pioneer
work of Watt Even today the stenm
engine remains the same In principle
ns Watt evolved it
It Is an Interesting fnct, by the way,
that Watt's workshop, exactly as ho
left It, still exists nt Hcathflcld hall,
Handsworth, where tho engineering
genius spent tho last nineteen years of
his llfo carrying on scientific Investi
gations. London Tit-Bits.
FRIENDS OF SUNNY FRANCE
Scotsmen for Many Centuries Fought
and Lived Under the Flag
of the Bourbons.
Until tho eventual fixture of the
nanovcrlan line on tho throne of Bri
tain, there was always a company, at
least, of Scots In the Roynl Guard In
France. When Louis IX mndo his fa
tal crusade In Egypt, a Scottish legion
fought under tho Bourbon stnndnrds.
Llkowlse, In all tho marches of Jeanne
d'Arc tJiere were Scottish volunteers.
Scottish schools, academies, hospitals,
convents and other Institutions flour
ished In France for many years. Queen
Marie, It Is said, spent her last years
In exile In one of the Scottish con
vents In Paris.
During these centuries, all France
was a laud of pilgrimage for the
Scots, 'Trains of pilgrims were seen
annually assembling nt Saint Wnast.
I'lous Scots also founded shrines at
Mcnux, Rhelms and in many secluded
vales of Champagne. As late as 1810
mnnuscrlpts attest the presence of
Scottish emigrants, whose names soon
became confused with French forms.
It Is said that one French king, de
spairing of tho frivolity of his heir,
suld to him, "If thou should govern
them budly, I would far rather that a
Scot came to rule over them."
Dissatisfaction.
The old' saying that some folks would
find fault If they wore going to be
hanged Is undoubtedly true. There
nre ton many dissatisfied humnn be
ings, a minority, to be sure, but
enough to shade tho picture which
portrays our everyday life. Hanging
U a serious matter, and no one can
wonder If Its contemplation causes dis
satisfaction to tho herrt of the occa
sion, but lesser Ills and woes, and
common things like wind and wenther,
lack of money, unpleasant occupations,
a crumpled roseleaf In the bed, a
wrinkle in some other woman's get up
which has escaped her own, turn loose
n stream of fault-finding dlsugreeable
and contemptible. We might as well
decide that wo all have something to
bear In this world and that we will
bear It without grumbling; wemlght
ns well subscribe to the truth that
If it is not one thing, It Is another,
and set our teeth and sny nothing.
Caroline Harris Lee.
"Ghost" of ThomnB a Becket.
St. Thomas, tho "first Agnostic,"
whose festlvul was pluced on the
shortest duy to punish .his unbelief,
shares this anniversary with a very
militant namesake, Thomas a Becket,
pllgrlmnges to whoso shrine Inspired
Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales."
His specter, known uniting the
vergers ns "Thomas a Backet's ghost,"
can be seen occasionally in tho crypt
of Canterbury cathedral. It is a real
ghost, and has been photographed.
Ono photograph showed a dim flguro
of a prelate against n pillar, while an
other snapshot taken from the same
position, but on a different day, re
vealed no such appearance.
Rationalists explain that nn ancient,
fresco on the pillar, painted out at tho
Reformation, becomes visible through
tho overlaid material during damp
weather. Loudon Chronicle.
Housekeeping.
We went housekeeping Immediately
upon our mnrrlage, for mother said
sho despised these boarding peoplo;
sho went to housekeeping when sho
was married, and sho meant all her
children should do tho same; und if
their husbands weren't able to go to
housekeeping then they weren't ablo
to bo husbands, und there wns nn end
of it; and no two people, sho said,
brought up in different fashions, could
unlto their lives into ono without somo
Jnrrlng, and a third party was sure to
turn that jar into an earthquake ; and
if there were fewer third parties hnlf
tho trouble would bo dono away with ;
for sho believed hnlf tho divorces and
separations and quarrels In the state
were brought ubout by boarding house
intimacies with third parties. Harriet
