[ Corrcsnondonco of Tin : Br.rs.1 With inoro tliiinnoo.000 square miles of dense forest land , full of big game of every variety , and an Inland sea with 11,000 miles of coast llnd swarming with whales , porK | > Isos nnd moro palatnblo hali but , salmon , rook cod and herring , with mil lions of wild geese nnd duclts floating on every bay and channel , Alaska U tbo greatest sportsman's preserve on the Ameri can continent. With the disappearance of tbo buffnln , oik and antelope from the croat plains and the gradual extermination of the grizzly , panther and mountain sheep In the Itouklos nnd Sierras , Alaska will soon bo the only region In the United States where big frame awaits the hunter In unlimited quan tities. Hut there nro very few visitors to the north who go purely for the sport , and the permanent Inhabitants are there to make a fortune , not for pleasure. 'Ihcro was one passenger on the steamship Queen , however , who upends a month In Alaska nowand then gunnlngifor frizzly , but bo has great respect for bruin and goes lifter him with n gun which resembles a small cannon and Is loaded ' wltb explosive shells. This iioblo sportsman happened to bo a real Irish lord- who married a coal mine In Brit ish Columbia , and expects to Inherit several millions on the cicath of his mother-in-law. Sir Klclmrd fully came up to iho Idoul of tbo young Indies on Iwiard , of what n British peer should bo. Ills lordship were a suit or liver-colored knickerbockers , two sizes too big for him , with cap to match , heavy woolen Icgulngs , walked' with bis hands in his ] ioelcls ( , smolretlfa pipe nkid spoke with a do' elded drawl , so It was really tbo bad ho was innrrlcd. Ttio passengers often listening to some of his lordship's hear stories were willIng - Ing to content themselves with less ferocious game. A Pish Story. The following bulletin posted ono evening gave thorn the desired opportunity : Program ClintiKiid As tlio skipper thinks that tlio pi'ssmiRors havu not ilune thu "dark room" Justice In n.NprvsiIng tholr opinions of Ilio wentlier In tlio lust twenty-four hours , ho linn concluded to go In Kllllsnod , whore will go nnd try lo culoli some Imlllmt.

The llsh bit like mosquitoes in August and the excitement began. But a halibut Is not n very gamy Ush , nnd when ho gulps down your bait all you have to do is haul him up to the sldo of the boat nnd pull him In with a gaff. Those who tried to fish over the side of the steamer were quite successful , but it is a good deal like work to pull up a tlsh over the deck rail that weighs from twenty to 120 pounds without a derrick. Tbo steamship company l. < almost as ac commodating us regards llshlng us the rail road trains down south , whlcli slot ) to let the passengers pick flowers. But one of tlio skipper's bulletins announcing a fishing ex cursion was regarded by everybody as a sample of Captain Carroll's good-natured 1 iimnor. It read something llko thisVo : will go on aboro at .3 p. in. for two .hours , and all passengers wishing \ catch salmon can do sa ' All that you will..require asMlsh- ing gearwill bo' sharp Ungernails , button hooks and hairpins. ' ' At 2 o'clock wo were led to a llttlo stream that rushed roaming through the pines and cedars lo sou a sight Unit would make old Izaak Walton turn In his grave. There xvcro salmon by the thousands. In places , for twenty feet the llsh were so thick you could not see the bottom of tlio shallow stream and whcro the water rushed over a small falls you could see a line of black .tails from shore to shoro. This may sound very much llko Suildy Griswold's Sunday lUli stories , but I can bring witnesses who will swear to it a pair of wet 'trousers of a .certain , ls'o\v York g'cntleman and photographs taken by our oivn artist on the spot as indis putable ovldenco.tjTho passengers gathered enough salmon to last tlio shin for some time. Several succeeded In catching them with their hands. Others went at it Indian fashion .aud ' speared them with n barb pointed spear. A not drawn at the inoiitli of tbo stream by tlio salmon cannery a day or sp.boforo pulled in 20,000 , pounds of salmon , ' ten'tons of llsli. There is a peculiar kind of flsh found In Alaskan waters whlcli Is qulto plentiful , called the candle llsli. It Is about the slzo of a omolt , which it resembles In appear ance. The candle Jlsh is caught by the In dians on bright moonlight nights with a kind of n largo rake some six or soycn foot long , tlio tooth being made of bono of sharp pointed nails. While the caiioo Is puddled by ono Indian close lo a shoal of tish , an other sweeps tlio raku through the dnnso muss , generally bringing up three or four lish on each tooth , The candlu tlsh 'nro care fully packed away nnd used for lighting pur poses.

The Alaskan Indian u'x- hlblts traits which are not common to the American aborigine of iwniwor latitudes.

The boys and 0IHs do excellent work and the institution is a decided success. The missionaries hivvo n rather hard row to hoe. for the Thllntrit language Is very dinicult to lonrn , nnd to the uneducated oar sounds very much llko a series of grunts and groans.

The Indians have permanent dwelling places and , the villages are usually built qultoncar the boauti In - the proximity of SOIIIQ stream wlioro llsh Is nbuntlant. The houses ara built , of hewn Iocs , with ono door , iv couple of windows , but no ohlmno.v , In stead of which a .small nporturo In thereof roof allows the smotto to escapo. The Interior is of a very peculiar construction , bolng arranged with n pit in the center tiboui twelve feet square , around which urea a series of four or Jlvo platforms , each about three foot above the other and rive or six fuetvldo. . 1 am told the uumbor of families llvlnp iu a house corres | > ends to the number of platforms and several generations live toRcthor under the samoroof. The llro is built in the central pit , and the fact that thcro Iq no chilnnoy has both its drawbacks and Its advantages. However disagreeable may bo the escaping smoke It hast a certain utility in curing the strings of llsh which are hiitiK up about the room. The peculiar 'sttinoh ' which greets you at the doorway of an' Indian hut can llml no comparison , though , as Dogberry remarks , "Comparisons : ire odorous.

Next to the carved totem poles , which stand like scarecrows in front of the houses , the dogs are the moat conspicuous feature of an Alaska village. Tlio poorer the inim the more dogs he owns and the more unsociablu are the iiojjs , both from temperament and minute animal companions. The totem's carvings on both the poles Mid armaments are distinctively Alaskan. They all represent something and have some moaning , recording an important event or tolling some Eskimo legend. Usually tlio family emblem is placed on top of the totem polo , a beast , bird or Hah , which a scientist would have a hard time classifying. Ono of these poles is of special interest to tourists from Now Jersey. It rqprespnts a most hideous. looking beast crouched over the prostrate form of a man. Once upon a tlinis , as the story goes , there was a great spider whoso solo occupation was to suck the blood of men , and its- victim * numbureJ thousands. Llko the dragon of old. there was a St. Ooorgo who came to the rescue , and while the spider was asleep the great chief fastetioJ to his buak a coal ol lire. The spider shriveled up until it was very , very small , but did not die. Ho is now powerless to kill , but his sting leaves behind its coal of lire , and tllls.is the Eskimo account of the Origin oftlio , mosquito. The TubiiCRO Ilililt. | Every Eskimo , men , women and children , use tobacco , now-a-days. Tho.v use Ameri can pipes In these degenerate ( lays and the weed is not very expensive. But before the days of the whiio man in Alaska tobacco was n precious article and they were very euro ful not to waste any. When all the enjoy' ment was extracted from a quid by chewing the remnant was saved and dried for smok ing. The pipes are curious affairs , made of drift wood or bono , with a. bowl no larger than a thrmblo. In the stem about'ft half inch from the bowl is a small slldo , so that if any tobacco should not be consumed It could bo removed and not bo wasted. You can never toll whether un Eskimo has to bacco in ) iis mouth or not , for ho does not chew it , neither docs ho waste any of the Juice by expectora tion. I presume that the Eskimo maiden is as bad oil us the American girl as regards pockets , for when she wishes to remove her quid of tobacco while eating she places it behind hur car as a bookkeeper does his pen. .Most of the younger women In the larger town have irivon up wearing the lip button , but the older women retain it as if to make themselves more ugly than they aro. An Incision is made in tlio lower lip and a small pluco of- bone or sliver , something like a col jar buttonIs inserted. As the aperture grows tlu > sl/.o of the button increases and some of thum are , at least two inches wide. No doubt the use of Hits huloous ornament ac counts for the Alaskan mode of kissing. They havo. ji peculiar style of thnlr own , which will probably never displace the Kmma Abbott fashion , for it consists simply in rubbing their noses together. 1 " ' ( jimlnt mill Curious Ono of the passengers , Prof. II. B. . Adams of Johns Hopkins university , succeeded in purchasing ono of tlie.su lip buttons from the mouth of one of the old woinon. The In dians are willing to sell almost anything they own , and the tourists got a varied antJ curious collection of souvenirs. HanUmado baskets are the chief stock o ( the Indlai : women , who display their wares in front of them as they sli.arouad the dock and main street. Ono Hoston lady on the trip before ours gathered n collection of almost fifty baskets. They have all sorts of Implements of the household and the hunt , ami many curio-hunters prefer these which have been used and p > ssoss a genuine Alaskan odor , Tlio native .silversmiths nave found out thai Americans uro possessed of a disease called "apoonomnnla , " and have supplied the demand mand of the souvenir spoon llcnd. Furs am nidus are no cheaper than in the status , nm you can rarely got ahead of a natlvo dealer. Many of the curio shops are in the hands of the natives , and It takes a Connecticut Yankee to boat them on iv bargain. Totems with their quaint carvmgx nro umdo to order fforthatrado and the uglier they are the more" thpy are .sought after.Vhon the Queen started southward It had on boart specimens of everything Alaskan , from n black bear culi to a canoe paddle , including basket1) ) , spoons , upoars , halibut hooks , ehji cat blnuliots , liiitvos , rings , mlnUitiirofiinooit pipes , totomsj skins , aud a hundred othoi things , not tomentloi an Eskimo -woman and a puppoosp In thonioerago.

[ Special to * Tnn HnK.j Scarborough , ever here on the North sea , Is tlio greatest sea- sldo resort on the eastern coast of England. For vast crowds It Is llko Southport on the west , aud Brighton on the south coast. It has boon a watering place for nearly 250 years.Before that good fortune it was llttlo else than a dreary llshlng port , with a great , grim castle dominating ha'mlot and harbor ; nudawlso woman ? who-'iisod her eyesight and other souses , was primarily re sponsible for Scarborough's transformation from obscurity to optilunco and renown : "Airs. Farrow , a sensible and intelligent lady , who lived at Scarborough , about the year IB-'O , sometimes walked along the shore , and observing the stones ever which the waters ( from a cllff-sldo spring ) passed to have received a russet color , and llndtng it to have an acid taste different from common springs , and to receive a purple tincture from galls , thought it might have some mo- , icinal property. Havingthoroforoinadonn xporlment herself , and persuaded others to o the same , It was found to bo otlicaclous in' ouio complaints , and bocaino the usual > hyslc of the inhabitants. It was aftor- vards in great reputation with the citizens . f York ; and the gentry of the county , ana at length was so generally recommended hat pcrsqns of quality carrie 'from , a great .istanco to drink it" , preferring it before all thors.tnoy had formerly frequented , oven Ho Italian , French aud German spaws. " I.iiHt for 11 Tlino by Knrtlniunkc. Thus runs the ancient , ungrammatlc but ruth ful chronicle. Dame Furrow has only few lines in Scarborough local history and 10 monument. These nro the only really nean things you will llndabout the winsome old town. The "spaw" the good dame dis covered Is a spa which has a curious history of its owrf. Nearly llfty years after its dis covery the spa was provided with cisterns or wells for collecting the waters. To pro- .cct these from the encroachment of the sea , erected around the wells. Forty years later a great mass of the ell ft above , containing icarly an acro'of pasture land , sunk por- lomlicularly for several yards. As this hugo nass of clllt wont down the sand about the staith , some distance from the subsiding clilT , shot up into the air to a height of from thirty to llfty feet , an entire mass nearly 100 feet broad and UOO foot long. The wells as- cendecl with the staith aud sand , but the spa Itself was lost-complotoly , and was only recovered after long and diligent search , and jrcat expense upon the part oj the Inliab- itauts. .Local folk-lore holds to the belief that this was just judgment for Scarbor ough's ingratitude in forgetting its debt of obligation to Dame Furrow. Its I'rcHKiit llonelU'ciioe Inevitable.- But after knowing . Scarbo'roughl I believe had there 1boc'u'hd--Iaino,1 Furrojv , and no "spaw ; " no oarthquakoand ; no < - rediscovery ; uo grand Spa saloon fm" the Italian-Honais- ' Banco style , aeuom'iuoqa ting several housund people , opened by.'tho'lorJ. mayor o'fJLondori ; no spatious-promcnudes-or grand'cliff bridge across the shadowy ravine ; no grand aqua rium , fcaid to bo the llnest in the world ; no splendid orchestra of 200 to 300 performers ; no broad seawall promenade , and no count less sheltered walks , grottoes and bowers ; and uo high bounding names of North Clialy-l boato and South Salt-well , that the glorious face Scarborough sots to the Gorman ocean , its llnest beach in Europe , and all the magio- it takes from the mighty sea , would hayo inade the charming old town all that it now is to.tho . countless thousands who loiter hero for measure , rest or health. For back of anclunt Scarborough town is Manchester and Kolghloy anil Bradford and Wakollold and York and Iluddorsllold and .Leeds , hum ming with spindles and clanging with cranes , and the coal pits of Lancashire and Yorkshire ana Notts , whore there nro hun dreds of thousands of strivcrs , while or grimy from endless toll. Often there are JiU,000 of such as these at Scarborough. It is at such times that ono may know , if ho will use his eyes , how precious a thing Is the glint of the waves , the cool touch of the golden sands , the whispered lullaby and mysteries of the sea , and all the benotlccnca of God's blessed sunlight kissing through llfo-glving ulrs the pallor from out these toll scarred faces , to uaused , eager eyes and haunted , hungry hearts. iSlmilnrltlos of Miarbormish nnd Naples. Scenically considered , Scarborough and harbor remind you Instantly of Naples and its wondrous bay. U'ero it not for the mytholoio , historic and poetic associations with which all the beautiful environs of Naples are rife , a llavor of which cannot but at some time and in some way touch the .fancy of every traveler of sympathetic and rcciipttvo mind. I believe old Scarborough and harbor , at least when viewed from the sea , woula prove to the beholder n inoro beautiful scene. Like the bay of Naples , Scarborough harbor has n noble , crescent- shaped sweep from cliff to headland. It has not a mysterious and awful Vesuvius behind , but it has n second crescent- verdure-clad hills , a circling thread of emerald above the checkered line of whlto and rod whore nes tle its comfortable ancient -homos. It has-no Poslllpo above whose vineyard heights were the Georglcs and the vEhoul composed and whore still sleeps a gentle Virgil , but dread ful and weird were its scourges ana sieges from the tlmo of Harold Hadrada to the lir t Charles. It had no Tasso. as had the olive and chestnut groves of Naples' Sorrento. But the splendid ruins of its once majestic headland castle preserve , in the fact of his year's imprisonment here , the memory of ono who accomplished as much for humanity as VlrgUiind Tasso together the bravo and gentle founder of the Society of Friends- and somehow , iu all the splendid scone , while you may miss the half oriental color of the darling viuw beneath Italian skies , there comes to you a heartier , nobler sense of kin ship with habitation and humankind , earth and ocean , that win you 'completely to tlio lu-avu old Saxon town which set ? , on 1 to man , walls oosldo the Northern sea. The Vlow from CiMtlo Hill. From Cjstlo Hill the South Sands circle away nearly two miles to the south. The foreshore Is fully a fourth of a mile in width , with the gentlest possible declination into the sea , and each receding tide leaves it as smooth , hard and sweet as u newly scrubbed pine lloor. Down to this lineal beach in lOuropo the old city crowds In curious buildings , jumbles of roofs and terraces , and tin ) oldest and plcasantcst of streets from the outlying hills. If there were no shore , no sea and no thousands of idlers and bathers in bright medley to bo aeon , the lovely , leafy stalr-liko town would still bo u pleasant place to seo. At the highest places are Una villas , great hotels , and splendid homes , rich in settings . of ample verdure , curious old walls , stranuo and picturesque gateways , and fanciful iron and stone oruamonts of centuries ago. Cioss streets , circling with the harbor crescent , show odd high walls and gllmusQu of gables and creeping vines through stone approaches- wlnaomu embrasures on the oim hand , nnd on the other you can almost stop upon the rod tilings of quaint old roofs bolovv. But more plcturosquo than those urn the thoroughfares , most of them narrow and shadowy , which tumble from the ( fill to the shore. Ancient St. Ivos , on the Cornish western coast , is like Scarborough horo. Many of these street * are both stair and thoroughfare , i The roofs of all the houses are llko the terraces of Al giers. Most curious architectural bits uro found half hidden In tiny courts. Windows seem to have sprung through roofs ; balco- ules overhang succeeding roofs ; landings into s t root doers and second-story en trances of thnsamo houno ; everywhere ore potted flowers nnd ferlflr.lTncsljport trolllsos , roses trained across wjmlttws ; and between the gables or across rtSofsT continual Chang ing glimpses of the f m uoro show a man of kaleidoscopic color , llko a hugo bank ot flowers set close to lliblmmorlng ) blue of n rippling sea. Not only is nil thls-nt-rour foot for con- temptation if you nro. loitering on Castle hill , but the spars or nttilrig smacks nnd other curious craft hrdliko a reedy sedge beneath you to the south * Them comes the old harbor and Its inns y.nlor ; tbo bay /Hied / with pleasure sails living Tilthor and thither llko great white birds-skimming low along the rlpplir.g sheen of blue ; and beyond , tbo steely blue of the Norttn scat with llsnlng fleets at anchor in tlnviuitches , or merchant fhlps scudding to the Haltlo and the north ; with now and then trailing plumes of smoke from distant steamers close and low upon the for horizon rim. To the north another cove cuts Into the blglt and lofty shoro. Landward are moors , sand-dunes , rapgod cllffa , hung with rank and trailing verdure , and core and cllft" and moyr , strotcblng far wltb higher and more precipitous shores to where the North sea thunders endlessly against the headlands of weird nnd dreary Uobln Hood's Bay. Wlijr llmirjr II , Mpnrcd the Cnitlo. All about you are the ruins of tbo ancient nnd stupendous castle vrh'Ich was once the glory of Scarborough. Vast indeed were the mcdlrovnl strongholds ol Britain , nud this ono , well nigh Impregnable In its ttmo , was ono of the hugcst fortresses of the entire eastern coast , it was built by Karl William Lo Ores , who married Adoltza , daughter of William the Conqueror , and who ruled in tbo east with princely authority. When Henry II. endeavored to break'tho power of the nobles , which eclipsed the authority of the crown , nnd commanded the demolition of their castles , bo cumo hero In person to see this great pile . raz.cd , ' bur. struck with Its splendid proportions and Impregnability , increased Us strength ami [ licence in- stca'd. Tlio tremendous moat on the laud- ward sldo is well preserved. The stately * keep Is still nearly 100 foot high , with walls twelve feet in thickness1 , and In tbo castle yard can still bo traced the splendid chapel which ouco.was bore , for no men were moro pious than were these mighty pillagers and murdorers.of old. lluthcr. aJMnoo of Jtuit Than Gayotjr. The beauty and fashion to be soon at Scarborough are pronounced enough to give the place all. the gayety of ; Brighton. , Lon- don.sends thousands here for the "season. " which coutlnuos from May until October , and the great interior manufacturing cities , like Birmingham , Manchester and Leeds , divide their fashionable summer patronage between Scarborough anil- tie Peak of Derbyshire , but the place is characteris tically different from any other seaside re sort I have found In England. The rich and titled who visit Scarborough seem to bo ho'ro for rest and health rather than for rounds of gayety and fashionable enjoyment. Whatever may bo its spell , you are no sooner within it than a spirit of Idling , loitering and a delightful dreamful laziness possesses you. At the great Dalls , concerts and promenades on the cliff , all procedure is measured , quiet aud stately. There are no blare and ilaro iu Scarborough. The shops are shady , cool and quiot. Go the whole length of Wcstborough , Nowborough and Eastoorough streets , from the high railway station to the gleaming , sands , and , though vour stroll may huvo-br.ought'you in contact J with from 20,000 to yojOOO "people , you will not have hoard a sound < that 'would disturb the placid serenity of tvsunnly country church lane.

" In getting about among those nilllmon miners and their families in 'Scarborough , . ' found that many came here during the sea son not with the great excursions , which sometimes bring to such resorts as Southpori and Scarborough upwards of 50,000 souls in a single day , but In llttlo groups of dozens or scores , to remain for an. on tire week. This Is accomplished by each workman paying weekly during the on tire yei > r a stated sum of from 1 to U shillings , according to the number of persons to bo provided for , Into the hands of a treasurer or agent. With this amount poolou , operatives and miners got as long a journey as they llko , comfortable housing nnd good food , and n week's resi and pleasure In almost any part of Englant or Scotland. It is a surprising thing to fine these tellers so well informed upon British history and upon British shrines. The , select in advance the place to bo visited , and then assiduously road all that their village or town library may contain upoi the place or region. These cooperative trips are taken to the lake district , to Ab- botsfonl.Melroso and Dryburgh , occasionally tonsfaras Obun ana the Caledonian canal to .London aud to the seaside resorts of thi east and west coasts.

Sample of Allegheny , Pa. , has been appointed supreme master of ex chequer to succeed S. J. Wiley , deposed. In speaking of the appointment a Pythian journal of prominence says : "To the order ut largo the news of the ap pointment of Colonel Tnomas G. Sample of Allegheny , Pa. , as supreme master of ex chequer to succeed Stansbury J. Wiley will be received with unqualified satisfaction. Supreme Representative Sample needs no introduction 1 to the order he has been n central ilguro in Its affairs for years , and has the confidence and respect of the best men of the order. The appointment will bo an unanswerable reply to that element In the Keystone . state that have been persistent in the claim that Pennsylvania has no recogni tion at tno hands of the supreme lo'dge , and will provo to the loyal membership in thut jurisdiction that Thomas G. Sample is rec ognized because ho tttunds by the flag. At the last session of tbo supreme ledge ho nulled his colors to the mast , hence the , se lection ut this time is a fitting accnowlcdg- rnent. This U the second time thut the ofllco has boon hold by a representative from Pennsylvania , William A. Porter of Phila delphia , being the first supreme "banker" in 1803 , holding that position till 1874 , . when ho was succeeded by John B. Stumph of In diana.

The grand master of Pennsylvania , Michael Arnold , recently approved the ac tion of a mas tor of a subordinate ledge who would not entertain a motion to permit the cremated remains of a brother to bo placed in the ledge room. In commenting on the subject the grand master said : "A ledge room is a place for ledge labor and refreshment. It Is not a graveyard ; neither is it a place of sepulchre , or a sub * stltuto for ono. Burning the body to ashes is considered with us a disgrace ; , a penalty , While we cannot prevent the brethren from resorting to the heathenish practice , wo can show-our disapproval of H ; nnd wo are nol to have it flaunted in our faces , and forced upon us for recognition by putting their ashes under our noses. Hathcr lot thorn bo scattered , etc. I write this on tlio day when the greatest of men was crucified nnd Iniried. Kvcn His persecutors did not put upon him the Indignity of burning His remains to ashes. If any brother desires to have his body cremated after his death , ho may dose so , but ho shall not extort recognition and encouragement from Free Masons. The practice is a relic of heathenism. Free Ma sonry Is divine. " Friday oveninif of last week the members of Vesta chHptor , Order of the Eastern Star , gave a picnio at Courtland bench.
