HORRORS OF THE SKAGUAY.
Hardships of Men Who
Gone Over the Trail.
Have
One Man Works EiKlit Weeks Oyer the
: Difficult Pus and Is Compelled
" to Give It Up and
Tarn Back. , , , '
The horrors of the Skaguay trail hare
only half been told. A number of men
have recently returned from the White
pass (which will henceioi-vt-ard be
known as the Black pass) with stories
fit to sicken the stoutest heart and sub
due tea hottest courage.. One man, L..
J. Uiekard, of Seattle, a bright unci in
telligent young: fellow, v.i'.'-i plenty of
pluck and perseverance, iisEti his very
best efforts to get over Use trail, but has
Teturned to a mere friendly Ir.nd f or the
winter, and will make anothei If ial in
the spring-. He v.iU then ro b another
route. He has had all cf ike Skr.gi'.ay
trail that he wants. To begin with, the
trail was never ready fcr triTcl, end
the "promoters" who are responsible
for all the waste of time and' money
should be prosecuted. Itickard arrived
iat Skaguay on the Islander, which de
posited its passengers on August 1, and
so was among the earliest earners. He
had an- ordinary miner's outfit, weigh
ing 1,200 pounds, two horses and $200.
He considered himself fairly well
equipped. He helped the others cor
duroy the trail and bridge the rivers.
By the time this necessary work had
been done crowds of wayfarers had
arrived, and soon the trail was worse
than ever.
In eight weeks of the hardest work
he had ever done Eickard managed to
get his goods to the summit of the last
hill. Then his money was gone, his
horses exhausted, and he had the choice
of wintering in the timber by the lakes,
while his food supply diminished, or of
returning to California and earning
more- money to again attempt the trip
noithward. He figured that if he
camped the winter, as so many are
counting upon doing, he would have an
early start in the spring, but would by
that time have only two men ths pro
visions left at the cutsicc, ar.ti he was
already penniless. Eickard -spent his
money for food and shoes f cr his horses,
He says the difficulty of feeding horse:
on the Skaguay trail is enormous. It
was necessary to so all the wav back
to Skaguay for hay, and by the- time it
was brought back to the hungry ani
mals waiting for it the other animal:
met on the trail, by each taking a pass
ing nip, had reduced the qumtity about
50 per cent. The horses are fond of
Tbirch leaves, but they soon contract
mud' fever, and, as they are insufficient
ly fed and not sheltered at all, theyisoon
beccTno worthless. Xct so many are lost
on the trail as is supposed. They really
die from lack of care. Horses are a
good deal better on the Skaguay trail
than burros, although the best thing
of all would be an ox, w-hfoh is very
good for muddy traveling and can carry
a big load. The burros taken up are
almost a failure. They are good over
the rocks, but no goodi at all in the
swamp, which forms about two-thirds
of the distance.
Eickard reports the packers have lost
money on account of the mortality
among the horses. They would start
cut with 20 and return with 17. The

been fittingly named Dead Horse srulch
Instead of one short, steep hill, as at
the Chilkat, there are five Ions- hills.
and Eickard thinks it isharder than the
Chilkat itself.
Hundreds of disappointed men at
Skaguay in September were, making
herculean efforts to reach the timber
that lies bej-ond the summit with their
goods, there to spend the winter and
get a very early start down the river

for snow had already fallen on the sum

and build their log huts before snow

moss with which to wedge the chinks of

Kicnard says. H- also says that, though
quiet and orderly, the Skaguay country
is the meanest in the world. Tr. rain

MODERN SCIENCE.
Predictions for tbe Twentieth Cen
tury Are Broad.
It may be that we are, with.respect to
the coming century, in the same imma
ture mental condition in which the peo
ple of the eighteenth century were with
regard to the nineteenth, says the Pop
ular Science Monthly. If some one in
the preceding century had dared to pre
dict the wonderful achievements of the
nineteenth, he would probably have
been declared a fool, and treated as
was Kobert Mayer, in Germany, in this
century, who, after the discovery of the
law of the conservation of force, was
put into an insane asylum. A like fate
might befall the man who should: dare
now to cast a horoscope for the twen
tieth century, and to predict the prog
ress of the human mind in the various
domains cf scientific research. After
all, those may be right who, in spite of
all those acquisitions on which we so
justly pride ourselves, are of opinion
that we are still moving in only the
initiah-steps, in the leading strings of
evolution, and that we are yet very far
from the goal of those material and
ideal aims which the human race in its
unremitting onward struggle, is des
tined to attain, or to show its capacity
of attaining. The great Sir Isaac Jfew-
ton used, perhaps, the most appropriate
simile when he compared men with
children who on the seashore are pick
ing up here and there a curious pebble
or colored shell while the great' sea of
truth lies still unexplored before them,
We can only conjecture as to the prob
able progress, as we cannot know which
position we occupy in the course of hu
man evolution, whether we are still in
its beginnings or well advanced. This
lias hidden in the bosom of the future.
STRICT BOARDING SCHOOL
Three Callers a Year at Twenty Min-
ntes a Call for Girl Stndcnts.
' The young ladies ox the normal
school in Winona were lately throwr,
into a flurry of excitement, says the St
Paul (Minn.) Dispatch. Xtiey wen
called into one oi the recitation-raomf
and put through a rigid examination
about the number of callers each had
and a description of each caller. They
were told that it was highly impropei
to receive a caller from out of the city.
and that many of the young men of the
city were not proper persons with
whom to associate.
It was also considered tughly im
proper to receive a call which was ol
more than 20 minutes duration. In all
over a dozen questions were required t:
be answered, all of which were in regard
to the subject of gentlemen callers.
A number of rules wercrriven to thr
young ladies, which they were told they
must obey. Among them was one for
bidding the same young men to call
upon them more than three times
year, and then the call must be purclj
formal and not exceed 15 or 20 minutes
The young ladies were also requested
to furnish a list of their callers and
their characters, and as to the general
subjects of conversation when calling
or riding, and if the landlady where
they boarded approved of the young
men. -
..Some of the young ladies arc indig
nant, , and say they will not submit tc
KV.ch rules, while others believe they are
all right, and propose to follow them.
Little Attentions. -
If husbands only realized what the
little attentions mean to their wives
there would be many: happier unions.
It is not the cost of a gift that makes
it preciaus to the recipient. A tiny
bunch of violets brought home at hight
betokens the thought, given to her even
while business occupies his attention,
the most trifling souvenir of a wedding
or birthday anniversary becomes a sen
timent underlying its ' proffering.
Women may be foolish, they may be
all heart and very little reason, but the
man' who understands their nature and
caters to it is the one who stands higher
in their estimation than the one who
acts as though all they- cared about was
material comfort given With any sort
of brusquerie. Of course there are
many mercenary ! women thousands
and thousands who can marry for a
home and for Tich raiment. ' .These
pooh-pooh the violets and value only
the diamonds, but the average feminine
heart, the sort which a man wants to
beat beside his own, the foundation of
truest sympathy and love, is moved
more by the little attentions in which
sentiment is involved than by the great
offerings" representing only a stupen
dous sum of money involved. 2T. Y.

SHEEP KILLED BY DOGS.
Facts "Ascertained Through Offi
cial Census Figures. ' -.
The Damage Done 1jr Worthless Cars
Exceeds That Resulting; from the
Fury of the j Elements
Shonine by States.
The dogs in the United States kill
nearly two per cent of the sheep in
the country every ?year. J.ney Kiueat
more than 600,000" sheep in . the. year
ending June 1, 1800, when the last sta
tistics in regard to the flocks were gath
ered. The damage done by them is
greater than that from any other cause
except unexpected storms, in . which
whole flocks of sheep are killed, and dis
ease. . In six states more damage was
done to the flocks of sheep by dogs'
than by anything else- In Florida D,833
sheep ' were . killed by dogs,' and only
4,750 by the weather and disease. The
number killed by dogs was about nine
per cent, of the total number of sheep in
the state. The Florida sheep are not
exposed to such changes in temperature
as those on the farms in Nevada, where
128,850 died of cold and disease. Only
7,372 sheep were killed by dogs in Ne
vada in the census year. The enormous
number of deaths from changes in the
weather was due to 1 unprecedented
storms, which caught the bifecders un--prepared
and almost halved their flocksj
In South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Louisiana and Arkansas dogs do more
damage to sheep than anything else,
and more than weather conditions and
disease combined. ' In Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Connecticut the num
ber of deaths in the flocks due to dogs
is almost the same as that due to disease
and the weather. This is true in Mis
sissippi, too. In this state, Maine, New
Jersey, Pennsvlvania, Nebraska, Ari
zona and the Dakotas, one-fifth as much
damage is charged to dogs as to the
other chief causes of loss.
The dogs made the best showing in
Vermont, where they killed 3,0n: sheep,
against 28,000 which died from disease
and exposure in an average winter.
The Ohio and Michigan dogs have good
records, too, for they killed only one
sixth as many sheep as storms and dis
ease. North Carolina and Tennessee
dogs are red with the blood of ,; sheep.
They killed four-fifths as many as
the other causes of deatn combined.
In Kentucky, Texas, West Virginia, In
diana, Minnesota and Iowa the dogs did
one-half as much damage as other
causes combined; in Virginia, Missouri
and Oklahoma,, two-thirds as much; in
Illinois and Wisconsin, one-third as
much, and in Delaware, Maryland, Kan
sas, California and New Hampshire,
one-quarter as much.
If the winter of 1889-90 had not been
a bad one for sheep in Nevada, Oregon,
Idaho, Montana,- . New texico, Utah,
Washington and Wyoming, the dogs
would make a worse showing in the cen
sus tables than they do. In these states
whole flocks on certain ranges were ex
terminated, and thus the percentage
of deaths due to exposure and disease
was raised to 6.95 for the whole coun
try. 'The dogs killed nearly two per
cent, of the total sheep population.
The sheep raisers don't like uogs
as a general thing. Many states use
the money received from dog taxes to
pay for the- damage they do.-: In these
states some of the farmers are not un-
friendly to the dogs. If a sh?ep dies or
is killed by a wildcat or falls from a
ledge of rock,, the thrifty farmer, re
turn s it to the proper officers as a sheep
killed by dogs. Then he gevs paid for
it. Sometimes a New England farm
er, when he loses st sheep, wiil collect
the value of it from the county and from
the owner of the dog that killed' it.
Sheep-killing dogs become well-known
in the community wrhere their masters
live. Sometimes the dogs are such
good hunters that their masters refuse
to allow them to be killed, and try to
keep them from ; doing any damage.
Such a dog owner is an er-sy mark for
the unscrupulous sheep breeders. Every
time a sheep is killed, dies or disappears,
the owner will go to the deg's master
and demand pay for the dead animal,
threatening to have the dog killed if
its owner does not pay up. The dog
may be innocent, but because it bears a
bad reputation its owner submits. If
there , are more owners' of sheep killers
than one, the farmer may collect from
eacit and make a good thing of his
sheep. He may collect from the Coun
ty, too. . ' -'
Most dogs that kill sheep are bad
dogs all the way through, and sports
men and farmers unite in trying to get
rid of them. A sheep-killing dog is
j usually a tramp, untrained and worth
less for hunting... Many of the dogs
that kill sheep are ownerless. The
farmers shoot them wnen they can, and
sportsmen, anxious that their dogs
shall not be accounted bid 'because of
the misdeeds of ownerless curs, help
them. Some farmers set traps for sheep
killers. , The traps are like wolf traps,
and are set where a sheep is killed, the
body of the sheep being used for bait.
Sheep-killing dogs usually visit the
scenes of their depredations as a mur
derer is said to haunt the spot where
he commits a crime. The farmers and
brecders..ccunt cn this, ar.d set their
traps accordingly. Sometimes they
put arsenic in the carcass to make sure
that the guilty dog. Ehall not es.-ape.
When a real Eheep-liiliing dog gets
into a flock cf sheep he kills as many
as he can. lie does net kill f or f ooc
but for fun, apparently, and he finds his
rv" easy, for '"n nhccrj can't fisht
'hack, and don't Snow enough, to run.
They don't run fast enough to escape,
anyway, and their only hope of salva
tion lies in scattering." This the sheep
won't do, but persist obstinately in fol
lowing the bell wether while the dog
kills them. N. 1". Sun. ..
THE WOLF: AND THE EAGLE.
A Legend of Two Yonng Saranae In-
, dian Warriors.
When we think of the Indians, we are
apt to remember only the harsh and
ruel traits that they have shown; but
ra tneir stories! ana legenas many
noble qualities are hidden under their
cruelty, like pearls in the uncouth shell
of the oyster.
In one of these legends we are told
that there used to be a great many wiz
ards among the tribes, or sachems, as
the Indians called them, who were coun
selors in. the camp, hut whose chief de
light was in doing evil. They worked
so much mischief in ' the huniting
grounds that at last the Great Spirit
locked them in the hollow trees that
grew along the trail.
Some of them, in their struggles to es
cape, thrust their arms out of the trees,
but the closing wood imprisoned them,
and they may be seen tothis day, twist
ed and distorted in agony, as gnarled
roots ' " and yvithered, : trunks and
branches.
Others survived this : terrible trans
formation, and among them was Oqua
rah, a bent, decrepit, aged sachem, cruel
and evil minded, and jealous lest his
power should .wane, or be eclipsed by
that of a rival. The fate of his brother
sachems did not arouse pity in his heart,
nor did it soften him to know that he
had been spared. . -. -.
Oquarah lived with a trib.e of. the
Saranacs, in which were two ., young)
warriors, whose bravery and4ruth com
manded the admiration and love of
their companions. One of these braves
was called -the Wolf, the other the
Eagle, and they were friendly rivals in
all deeds of valor.
One day, in the moon of great leaves,
when the hunting groundsiwere starred
with flowers, and the soft south wind
blew over the land, the Wolf and the
Eagle left the camp and set out upon a
hunt.
The hours passed, and the Wolf re
turned alone.
Loud and angry cries greeted him as
he appeared thus, but he stood silent,
till, by the sternness of his look, he
quelled the tumult. Then he told them
that he and the Eagle had hunted for
hours together, but at last had become
suparated; and that when the time
came to return, he had searched in
vain for the Eagle. . .
His words were received in silence;
but presently Oquarah spoke, Oquarah,
the cruel sachem.
"I hear a forked tongue," he said. "It
says that the Wolf was jealous of the
Eagle, and that his teeth have cut into
the heart of his friend!"
"The Wolf cannot lie!" answered the
young chief, and. then he stood pas
sive, quiet.
Then the sachem clutched his hatchet,
and cried in rage: - '
"Where is the Eagle?"
"The Wolf has spoken," answered the
young chief.
At that, Oquarah raised his hatchet
and struck at the Wolf, but the Wolf's
! wif threw herself before her husband,
auu 1 1 1 1; iiaiuucL' biuia iulu uci ucau.
Them, with a cry of rage, the Wolf drew
his knife, and a- moment, later the sai
chem. fell with a mortal wound in his
heart.
Great ' excitement and discord fol
lowed these tragic events, and finally
the tribe divided, half of them following
the Wolf down the Great Sounding
river in search of new hunting grounds.
But the Wolf was very unhappy. . He
had lost his friend and his wife, and
his tribe had been broken up; , all
through the evil suspicions of the cruel
sachem..; ; - '.'-.! : -' : 1 -V..1-
Many years passed,' and the Wolf be
came great in his tribe. . But when
ever his tribe met the other, the ground
between their hunting ground was wet
with blood."
One day the tribe on the, Upper Sar
anae saw a canoe appear on the Lake of
the Silver Sky, and in it was the Eagle.
He told them how he had been1 sepa
rated from thCt Wolf, ; and' had fallen
into a cleft of a great rock, from which
he was rescued by some soldiers from
Canada. They had taken him with1
them, and he had fought with the Brit
ish against the French.7 : As the years
passed, and he grew old, however, his
heart yearned for the people of his
tribe, andrhe had come back' to die
among them. . ' . . ' '.''--.
When he heard that the Wolf had
been accused of his death, he was very
sad; but he called a meeting of the war
riors of the two camps, and peace was
made between 'them. So the Eagle
died, at last, happy in the knowledge
that he had cleared his friend and re
united his people. Philadelphia Times.

The preliminary estimates of the di

NOW THE TURKEY FOOT.
A New: Charm That la Worn by
the Superstitious.
The Rabbit's Foot, So Lone Popalar,
. fetas Been Displaced by the Mew ,'.
Mascot An Old Negro's :v'
Talk. ,''',
The rabbit's foot is not in the' race
any. longer as a charm. What has
caused the downfall of bunnie's hind
foot as a protection against all "e-yil
and an assurance, of .perpetual good
luck for its happy possessor is rather a
puzzling question and one which the
fair sex and the advocates ofthe new
fad would find it hard to explain. Per
haps the late presidential campaign
may have had something to do with it.
Every: one knew that the silver candi
date was presented with a rapbit's foot
immediately' upon receiving his nom
iiiation, and that the mascot complied
with all the requirements of the case,
for it was "the left hind foot of a molly
cottontail, that had been killed in the
full of the moon, t 12 o'clock at night
in a graveyard, by a red-headed nigger."
Well, the rabbit having enjoyed so
treat and so long a run of popularity,
in the natural course of events, the
time has come for him to step down
and oat. He has done so, and his place
has been taken by oue of the kings of
the farmyard the lordly turkey.
Fashion decrees that in order to be
lucky one must wear in some manner
or possess in some shape or other a
turkey's claw. ; .. "
This fad is so new that it has hardly
reached the counters yet, except in one
or two shops. Which pride themselves
upon "bringing out all the most ex
clusive novelties. Of course, it will
eventually become as common as the
craze for rabbits' feet, but to-day it is
a very difficult thing to find a turkey's
claw prepared in the proper style for a
charm against bad luck.
The most popular style at present is
the natural claw, properly treated by a
taxidermist, its shank covered by a sil
ver or gold cap set, with an amethyst,
-turquoise or the new green ' stone,
which resembles an emerald. The tip
of the nail is covered with a gold or
silvef cap, with a fine chain to match
the cap from the shank to what one
might call the wrist of the claw, and a
pretty scarlet ribbon bow with long
ends tied just below the shank. '
These new mascots are so arranged
that they can be hung up as ornaments,
or used as paper weights or table orna
ments. In one case I saw one profusely
bejeweled, which was intended for a
cabinet. As dress ornaments they are,
so far, but little used, though I was told
they were being fashioned into clasps
for fastening golf capes at the neck.
I asked an. old colored man if he had
ever heard of the turkey's claw as be
ing an unlucky, or lucky charm.
' "Why, yes," he replied. "Down south,
where' I come from, it is better and
luckier to steal your Thanksgivin' or
Christmas turkey. I don't hold with
the fashion of stealing anything, but if
you can only steal your turkey for the
holiday dinner you will have erood luck
all the rest of the year. In the old Cays
I the 'massa' would put away a lot of tur
j keys, and the darkies would go in the
night, just at 12 o clock, and steal the
birds." . ; ,: t
"But what about the claw? What
good luck does that bring?" ' '
"Why, bless your; heart, don't you
know that the turkey's foot is an aw
ful lucky thing? Vou must take .the
claw after, you have cleaned your tur
key a stolen one, mind you dip it in
salt, bury it, you better say, in a dish
of salt for a whole week, and let it lie
there, so that all thei bits of flesh which
; stick to it are .cleaned away, and your
I foot is jUst as sweet as a nut. Then
i you take it out and scrape it and clean
j it and polish it, until it just shines like
.a piece of stone. Then you put it up
j over your door, and! no bad luck, sick
ness or anything can come in during
. the year." . 1 ' ,
- "Will it keep out death?" v '
"No, ma'am, it will not. Don't you
konw sometimes death is the biggest
piece of good luck that can happen to
you?" : j , v .. ', V
"But do you know why turkey's foot
is lucky?" j w
"I never heard but one reason, and
that was that after the ; devil had
tempted Eve and Was crawling-away
after getting her to eat the apple, he
came afross the turkey's path and the
turkey: lifted up his right foot and
struck at his head.j The blow was' so
hard that the devil was. stunned for a
moment. . And that Is the reason of the
turkey's right foot being lucky against
Wad fortune." N. Y.IHerald.
