Poc Kemp is the last man in the
world to kick about business condi
tions in Nome and he sticks pretty
close to the bargain counter. This
morning he talks about going duck
hunting for n week or so and wants to
know if there is anything in the game
laws to prevent a man from going
duck hunting if he doesn’t kill any j
ducks. "1 can shoot at ’em any way, i
says Poc, I’m not much on the shoot !
when it comes to ducks. It’s a differ- I
ent proposition when it comes to j
chickens. Why 'in the Flathead coun- j
try in ’7-’ it was nothing for me to go :
out for a week and come home with a
whole flock of chickens—What’s that!
Why, of course, I mean prairie chick
ens, you Mutt!”

claimed to he a demonstration of the

Edison is going to reduce to pot-metal
all of the big guns in the world.
The pile loruein i ?een in thf heav
ens is cal'ed a pcrihelian an) the
scientific cause Is given as follows:
"Halos aro prod,. ed by the refrac
tion of rays through suspended ice
crystals so situated. When the sun is
near the horizon and the ice-prishms
are in a vertical position largely pro
ponderate, parhelia are formed on the
"halo both to the right and left of the
sun and at the same level.
Two or more parhelia are seen at
the same time, and variously arranged
white circles arcs and bands inter
sect the halo."
And the country is still safe peri
helion or no perihelion.

deserved increase of pay has been
granted to nil men enlisted in th.s
United States army according to the
statemen* coining from the eon?* r
ence of the sc. t.'.e and hoii-.e -.ornrait
tees at their late session today.
By a vote- of or.e hundred and nine
ty-nine, to one hundred a:i' seventy
seven the hcuss recommitt d to the
conferees th - conscription n o isa-o
with the 'instructions that the pay of
all enlisted man I e raised to thirty
dollars monthly.
This vote reverses the action of the
conferees of she house and senate,
who had fired lie pay at twenty five
dollars, anil caused further delay In
the enactment of the conscription
measure.
Originally the house had vrdt d
thirty anil the senate twenty-nine anti
both now insist that the conferees
should have adopted either of these
two.
On later advices from the commit
tees in conftrn.e 'it is officially an
nounced that the agreement has been
leached, and that the sum of thirty
dollars has been set as the lowest pay
for enlistee, men.
