MILITIA IN ALASKA.
Conditions Not Wholly Bad Hot
withstanding Extreme Cold.

The government having at last ex
pended considerable sums J money
toward establishing military poats in
Aliuika, it ia reasonable to suppose
that the army must in the future look
forward to regular detiiihi of service
in that part of our country. A aerv
iee in high latitudes ia new to most
of us, and hi the hardships of Arctic
life havs bsen as much exaggerated,
says a writer In the Army and Navy
Journal, I sholl presume to give my
fellow-officer th benefit of a year's
experience on the Yukon, with the ex
pectation that it may be of use to
them.
It certainly does get cold In AlanJia.
The thermometer for five consecutive
days In January registered 63, G2, 05,
W, 62, while t) below is quite com
mon, and cold weather lasts from No
bember 1 to March 31. Substantia',
quarters have been constructed at
forts Egbert, Gibbon ami Cape Nome,
and the post at kit. Michael will be
built during the coining summer.
An oflicer coming to Alaska need
fear no greater hardships for himself
and family than those which fo'low a
return to the isolation of a one or two
company frontier post. A well-stocked
subsistence department furnishes all
the necessaries of life, and most of the
luxuries. Fresh meat has tlini far
been brought in In abundance In the
form of moose and caribou. Potatoes
and onions freeze solid in November,
and, If properly prepared, ere as food
as fresh vegetables until they thaw
in the spring. All the early vegetable
like, radishes, lettuce, onions, parsley,
etc., come to perfection In Augost.
It is dry, and ordinarily still, though a
hard wind at 40 below is not unheard
of. The snow falls gradually- nu
Inch or so at a time and never melts
. until"the April sun and rain wear it
away. In Muy the ground is free from
snow, rains continue, gnrdens m ty be,
prepared, und about the 15th the ice
in the river breuks up anil Hunt off
to the sea. Near the end of May
steamers that have wintered in uiuie
tributary of the Yukon come up the
river on their wny to Dawson. Kteai'i
ers from Kt. Michael, bringing passen
gers from the states, do not come up
the river until about July 1 to 15.
From June to October people re
quire about the same clothing they
would wear in the states. Mosquitoes
abound, and window screens anil
mosquito bars are a necessity. Mail
is received twice per month through
out the year, except In fall and spring
when Ice Is forming on the utreums, or
breaking up before navigation opens.
Unless new urrangements are perfect
ed, second-class uuiil ia not delivered
after navigation via HI. Michael closes,
Arrangements must be made with
friends to forward envelopes of clip
pings If on desires to keep up with
the news. A telegraph line connects
(ikaguay with Dawson, but, I received
one telegram from Washington that
was just a month on the way.
As to clothing, heavy underwear Is
Indispensable. In addition to these
garments, heavy short coats or wraps
must be provided to put on whenever
it Is necessary to go out of doors.
The government furnishes caps and
mittens and most excellent footgear
in the form of felt shoes. Ladles will
find a fur parkl the best all-around
outer garment. One can be purchased
in Han Fruolseo for 112. The felt
shoe cannot be Improved upon. It
I not necessary to remain within
doors during the coldest weather, un
less the wind Is blowing. The or
dinary routine of a post goes on with
out regard to temperature, and all
can take exercise at any time with
out fear of frost bites, llring plenty
of books and games for the long win
ter evenings. As the quartermaster s
department will doubtless eonstrur
this as service across the seas, bring
all your furniture. Nothing can be
obtnlned In the country excejit nt pro
hibitory prices,
To sum up, I would say that Alaska
is no worse than Keogli or Asslnnl
boine, and the greatest trial will be
the lack of tt dully paper.

"Now," said tho lawyer who was cou
ducting the cross-examination, "will
you please statu how Bud where you
first met this man
"I think," suld the lady with the
sharp nose, "that it was"
"Never mind what you think," Inter
rupted the lawyer. "We want facts
her. We don't esre what you think,
and we haven't any time to waste in
listening to what you think. Now,
please tell us where and when It was
Hint you first met this man?"
The witness made no reply, ssys the
Cleveland Leader.
"Come, come," urged the lawyer. '
demand an answer to my question."
Still no response from the witness.
"Your honor," said the lawyer, turn
lug to the court, "I think I am entitled
to an answer to the qurstion I have
put.
"The wltnets will please answer the
questiou," said the court, in Impressite
tones.
"Can't," snid tho lady.
"Why not?"
"The court doesn't care to hear what
I think, does it?"
"No."
"Then there's no use que UioT-.Ing me
any further. I am not a law) t. 1 can't
talk without thinking."
So they called the next witness.

' 05E-LEGGED BALL PLAYER.
Eight-Yaar-Old llor linns Bases With
out the Aid of Ills
Cratch.
Member of the Kenwood Country
club have a mascot in Willie Howard,
the one-legged baseball player, says a
Chicago paper. The little fellow,
eight years of age, Is considered one
of the most expert amateur bull play
ers on tho south side. He manages
to run the bases on one leg. Of lute
the young man has frequently been
nuked to appear on the tennis
grounds. It is said that whatever
side he champions is sure to be vic
torious In the tennis contests. Any
fine afternoon when there Is a tennis
game in progress Willie Howard is
very conspicuous. He is regarded by
some of the best tennis experts as
the forerunner of good luck. One day
lately Willie was in great demand.
It is snid his services were bid for
long before the champion tennis con
tests began at the Kenwood Country
club.
Little Willie, a he Is familiarly
called by his many friends, takes a'
prominent part in bnseball games
when there are no games of tennis
in progress. As a batter he is said to
be the equal of anyone on the Ken
wood grounds. Of late the young fel
low haa discarded hi habit of run
ning the bast's with a crutch In hand.
It I said that Willie believes it un
dignified to run the bases in his for
mer way. The result is the youthful
ball player now covers the base in a
hop, skip and jump fashion.

It was lust like this, you see, me
and Mickey came to Chicago to be on
hand for the opening season of the
races at Washington park from De
troit," said a short man with a sandy
mustache and wearing clothes that
had seen better days around a race
track, who was standing near the grand
stand In Washington park the other
day talking to a tout who was going
to give him a good thing, relates the
Chronicle. "When Mickey and I hit
the town we didn't have a cent, so we
had to beg our chuck and banner money
from people on the street. I he next
day we were ill for It good. No money,
didn't know nnybod.v, only a few touts,
who only had eating, money for them
selves and had a good thing thst would
win in a walk and the odds were big.
Mickey says: Tal, I tink I can get
a few bucks to net on a good tiling,
so he did. How he got it I don't know.
but in three days after he got it we
walked out of the truck with $'J..V)0
In our pockets of the bookies' easy
money." That Is the story overheard

BROKE THE NEWS SUDDENLY.
Conileal Riilaod la the Meeting- of
Loasf-Reparated flrolhers In
Knatand.
A curious little .story reached us
the other lny from the lips of an
officer Invalided home from South
Africa, says the Liverpool Post. The
eldest son of n well known duke had a
youii(rer brother In Lailysinlth und
wns naturally anxious and eaer for
his safety, lie himself was arrvhiu
with the forces of ticn. lliillcr and
was throiii,'h all the liinu and arduous
cauipalirn which preceU'd the relief
of that place. When it became known
ttiat the rortd was at last opt-u, the
youiiff nobleman was sent forward
Willi the first forces to enter the
town. He soon found his brolher,
whom his eyes had been yciiiulii to
see for so many lontf and weary
mouths. "Hullo, Jack!" he shunted,
and then, in his excitement and pleas
ure, for the life of him he couldn't
think of what to say next. At last he
blurted out with: "Old Tom, the
gardener, la dVad." An aiitl-cllinnx
which. In spite, of the apparently
mournful character of the news,
caused both the brothers to ruar with
laiiKhter. Such was the first Item
of home news which the younger one
heard after a sickening period of anx
lous waiting.

"I couldn't enjoy it," said the right

They ditln't aee her Ofcuin for three
weeks, and then she came flying intc

lion in gold.
"I've hud the loveliest experience in

"First there w.ih a man who had

n pawn ticket, a laundry bill and two
two-dollar bills in it. And distressed
oxer it! You'd think he'd lost a ,'old
mine. And he wan so Mire 'twas hi
money I'd found poor fellow! Then
a woman poured out a whole tiheetful
of her heart, und drew a pict ure of the
purse she'd lost, und told me how the
money in it belonged to her mister.
who wan in the hospitnl and who need
ed it dreadfully, and how I'd be blessed
forever if I only restored it. Next
there was an old iiirii ho, had dropped
Iho $1M bii'tt. and lie went on in a
shaky, fecide hand tu explain that the
reason he w.lk carryir It wa because
he couldn't trust the banjs; and then
