Liver People AtCQItomed to Gold Rushes. Washington.--Gold again tn Casslar |R news In the Northwest that has the soar-doughs tumbling out of the hills Into Wrangell, Alaska, bound up the Btlklne river on the old Yukon trail. -Gold or no gold," the Stlklne river people, Indians and whites, have learned to receive a boom with open arms," says a bulletin of the National Oeograph'c society from Its headquarters In Washington. "Between gold rushes the Stlklne country Is burled In the magnificence of Its own scenery and under the blanket of quiet that nature lays on Its peaks and valleys. When a rush Is on any Indian can sell back labor at peak price, food at a premium, a dog that mb pull a sled Is worth a joci-slied nugget, and a canoe will sell at i margin that would turn a profiteer's eyes emerald green. Rumor Draws Miners, * •flLast fall rumor sifted outrf the northern wilds of British Columbia that a rich placer deposit had been discovered on a 25-mile gravel bank •n Casslar creek, which is a rootlet of the tig MacKenzIe river Bystem. The rumor hasn't been confirmed yet, but it had the power to draw hundreds of old miners up the Stlklne river early this spring before the Ice went out and a thousand more waited for river steamers to start for Glenora, the head of navigation. From there they are pulling packs with dogs, -horses, o^en and caterpillar tractors over the passes and across boggy val leys to Dease lake, a gem In a perfect setting. Down the 27-mlle lake they are going to Casslar creek, site of one of' the first Important gold finds of fbe golden north. Casslar was history before the Klondike was a byword. Fortunes were made on it in 1879. "Even if they get no gold the men who so up the river are privileged to •lew sights that ought to arouse even the Jaded scenery sense of a sourdough. John Muir, chronicler par excellence of the Pacific coast, wrote that the Stlklne river was 100 miles of Yosemlte. He counted more than 100 glaciers within view from the river and 800 more within close range. The great peaks that afford dark portals at Wrangell for this swift river are terminal monitors of the vast canyon whose walls rise 8,000 to 5,000 feet on both sides. Here and there are small glaciers, small at least from the river, bine in the sun and tacked like patches of sky on dull mountain dopes. "Then there are greater glaciers-- the Dirt glacier and the Big Stlklne glacier, which pushes through rock walls two miles apart to spread out In a great fan six miles across. This fsn is a fountain of rushing rivers. "There Is a glacier on the bank opposite the Big Stlklne glacier and two traditions support the belief that these two rivers of Ice once met and that the real river flowed through a tunnel under the grappling arms of the two giants. One tradition holds that the Indians decided that there must be another land beyond this glacier wall because salmon came up the river. They chose two of their oldest men, since they must die anyway, to run the tunneL As the tribe watched they -disappeared Into the Ice cavern only to reappear a few days later to repot t of another world beyond. The second tradition Is that an Indian tecame tired of his wife so he put her in a boat and started her down the mysterious passage. Imagine his surprise a few days later when the banished wife paddled out of the tunnel safe and sound, fat and healthy. A .Yearly Deluge. •"Usually the people of the Btlkine river are treated to a big brief flood once a year. 'Flood glacier has broken loose again,' they say when high water bursts upon them, generally along In August. Mulr found out what happened. Tributary glaciers pour la WW." • behind Dirt glacier and form s large, deep lake. As the summer goes on the lake gets bigger and bigger. Finally the natural dam breaks, and down comes the flood. "The Casslar gold country la the mother of three great rivers flowing In opposite directions: the MacKenzIe flows north; the Yukon, pouring northwest into the Bering pea, sends its Teslln tentacle into British Columbia, and, finally, the Stlklne debouches southwest at Wrangell. There were three routes* to the Yukon during the frantic rush that broke with the United States' declaration of war against Spain: one up the Yukon from its mouth, another from Skagway through White Horse pass, and, finally, the Stlkine to Telegraph creek, and thence across country to the Yukon'r beadwaters. The Stlklne, though popular at first, was the most deadly of all. Hundreds of stampeders mushlnf up the river were caught In the soft ice of spring. Those who came on boats later had a heart-breaking Journey across the ICO miles of alternate swamp And rock to the Yukon. It cost tremendously In animal life--dogs, horses, oxen and goats--and some in human life. "News that a caterpillar tractor has been shipped In recalls the ill-fated experiment of Captain Armstrong's snow train. This consisted of a steam locomotive on runners with cars carrying loads behind. An anchorage would be made ahead on the ice and the locomotive would pull itself up by its own bootstraps, which were cables. Captain Armstrong's snow train went eight miles, then gave np the ghost." Here is Chauffeur Robinson, who drives President Coolidge's car no matter where the Chief Executive .may be traveling. Robinson Is now at Swampscott and drives the President and Mrs. Coolidge about the countryside during their stay at White Court. >4 v Cow Nips Off Ear. < 'Nyinonth, Ind.--Paul Craoti;' year-old son of Fred Craht of near Richland Center, was trodden by a vicious milk cow and his ear was pulled off. Despite absence of teeth on one JaV, the warlike bossy took a firm hold on the ear and yanked bard enough to rip a portion of It away. It took nine stitches to fasten the ear on again. • 1- .MOmm ,%in I I. n Foniiallom That May Cause Future Quakes Charted. Denver, Colo.--Numerous dead faults, created years ago by earth movements, probably when the Rocky mountains were being upraised, and which might cause earthquakes at some future time, have been located and charted by government geologists and others between Denver and Longmont and Boulder, Colo., and In the vicinity of Golden, Colo. United States .geological survey publications showing the geology of the Denver basin delineate the dead faults. Many geologists believe such faults In California to have been the cause of the recent disastrous Santa Barbara quake. C. T. Lupton, a consulting geologist of Denver, says there is a well-defined zone of dead faults at least one-quarter of a mile wide and 10 to 15 miles long, between Denver and Longmont. Series of Faults Is Found. This zone, containing a series of faults, crosses North Boulder creek about one mile east of the old postoffice of White Rock, in Boulder county, or four miles east of the town of Erie. It runs southeasterly to a point about midway between Louisville and Marshall. Outcropplngs of cretaceous rock and formations revealed by some of the northern Colorado coal mines have enabled geologists and students of the subject to locate and chart these faults, declares Mr. Lupton. There has been discovered no evidence of movement In these faults for centuries, it Is stated. Two or three dead faults have been located north of North Table mountain, near Golden, also, but evidently these have been inactive for ages, too. Formations on one side of the fault north of Denver have been found to be from 500 to 1,000 feet deeper than ••••i ---- •• iii-- Shipping Figs From Port of Smyrna on the other side, due to the sharp slip or fgfclt In the earth's suFf«e. Slight Tremors Are Reported Certain evidences of foldings in the earth's surface have been discovered In sdutheastern Colorado, and near Haswell, just west of Eads, in Kiowa country, there have been reports of very slight earth tremors within recent years, according to Mr. Lupton. It Is possible, geologists believe, that the folding in southeastern Colorado in the vicinity of the Sierra Grande arch, which runs from its highest point about 40 miles east of Raton, N. M., northeasterly Into Colorado, may be gradually through the centuries pushing up * new range of mountains. If *he readjustment of the earth's crust were perfect when the faults became Inactive and "dead," ages ago, and if there have been no substantial readjustments of weight on the earth's surface since then, the likelihood is, geologists, say, that these faults will never cause earthquake shocks again for centuries or ages. PIG PUTS OWNER THROUGH COLLEGE Provision Being Mi for Her in Old to Care an La&yer Wm Guards on Scaffold at Cairo. Oalroi Egypt.--Execution df seven men convicted of the murderVof Sir Lee Stack, governor general of the Sudan, took place here. They hanged at Intervals of forty-five utes. The death sentence Imposed upon Abdul Fstttt Knayat was commuted to' life imprisonment. Shsflh IfaOsour, prominent lawyer and member Of the Egyptian chamber of deputies, whose role, as revealed (it the trial, constated In remaining In the background and instigating and remunerating the actual murderers, did not bear up with the fatalistic fortitude of his comrades, however. After the guards had pinioned his arms to lead him from his cell, Sliafik renewed his wild struggles and actually burst his bonds In an effort to free himself. Hopes that Mahmoud Ismael, believed to have been the organizer of several big political crimes, might break the silence which he maintained throughout the trial proved illusory. Ismaei protested his innocence to the end and met his death with a smile, hurling jests at the warders as they led the men to the scaffold. Russell r.

C.--When "Red," 400- pound pure-brfd Duroc sow, pokes her poker face into the Elysian fields there is little doubt that she will be led into clover, for certainly her sojourn In the half-acre pen bdllt by her owner, Paul G. Bates, twenty-two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. D. P. Bates of Marietta, has been marked with unusual achievement. Her most noteworthy success, however, has lain along the natural talent of motherhood, for by the sale of her offspring young Bates has been able to secure an education. Only recently she has added to his college fynd by giving birth to nine pigs and Paul expects he will be able to finish Clemson college, where he is a junior, through the continued increase of the porker population. She Is now four years old. Provision has already been made for her care when the infirmities of age ptace her on the retired list. She will close her eyes in death only when the count of years inrfkes the call, and will then be given a funeral In keeping with her breed.

They iiad had a long, tedious journey. The caid explained the Oulez loved France because the French bad rescued Morocco from anarchy and bud given them great prosperity. He bowed low before General Simon and asked the benedictions of Allah to descend on him. Then the cald's family knelt on their carpets and prayed. Others followed them to their knees. With his face iu the dost, the caid spoke as follows: "For us the bull is the symbol of strength and courage. In order to prove to you that we consider ourselves . vanquished we will sacrifice five bulls In your presence, cutting the muscles of their legs before killing them. "You are stronger than w«l We have our leg muscles cut, our hands cut; but we know your kindness. You *on't kill us, won't sacrifice us to your vengeance. France is not vengeful. Peace be with thee."
