Ocean Steamers.
We are inclined to believe that byT
the time the present decade cf the
coming century is ended we shall have
steamers crossing the Atlantic that are
at least 800 and possibly 1,000 feet in
j length, and that these vessels will have
aspeed cf at least twenty seven OF
twenty eight knots an hour, while it is
not improbable that a speed of thirty
nots an hour will be attained by them.
A few years ago such an extraordinary
rate of progress through the water
would have seemed but
with small crafts it bas been demon-
strated that this railroad speed 1s
easily possible, provided the power is
well applied and there is an abundant
supply of fuel. Itismuch more 1ea"
sonable to assume that thirty knots
will be made by ocean steamers twelve
or thirteen years from now than it was
to believe twelve or fiften years ago
that the speed of twenty two knots an
impossible,
hour would be maintained by them.
The improvements in the marine
steam engine. bave been very .greet
during the past interval referzed to,
and yet what has been dore is only a
foreshadowing of what may be done in
the future. Of course, these high
rates of speed heve only been obtained
by a liberal use of fuel, but apparently
such an expense is thought to be off-
set if a vessell of immense tonnage can
be driven at high rate of speed, be-
cause she has not only the carrying
capacity needed to take in the coal, but
she also provides the room for accom"
modatifig hundreds and perhaps in the
near tuture even thousands of passep"

SITKA, Alaska, Oct. 20.
Via SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 1.
Poor Lo, the Indian, will soon be as
much of a tradition in Alaska as he is
in the Western States. Most of the na-
tives are passing through what for
them is certainly the degrading process
of civilization. The Aleuts parti¢ularly
are abandoing their anctent costumes
and customs and aping the dress and
manners of the paleface. Among this
people the aboriginal fur garments
have been almost entirely replaced by
the white manTs store clothes and the
aboriginal stomach is being slowly but
surely corroded by the white manTs
rum.
Parenthetically, I may remark that
the worst whisky on this green earth is
sold right here in little old Alaska. I
would give a good-sized nugget for a
genuine Manhattan cocktail, and I am
not what a Kentucky colonel would call
a drinking man. One feels the need of
a really pure stimulant occasionally in
these parts¢ It is doubtful if any man
would_refnain a teetotaler long in this
latitude. Good whisky is a blessing

The Alaskan Indians have bathhouses
of their own, but, although some of
the most fearless desperadoes of the
Pacific slope have come hither, no white
man has yet been found with sufficient
nerve to enter one of them. By the time
I get back to the States I hope to be
clean enough to enable my friends to
recognize me"but itTs an even chance.

im{tafive, and extremely shrewd. These
last are guilty of all kinds of offenses
against the moral code, and would
rather lie than tell the truth any day.
I have known Thlingits to lie when it
would have been distinctly to their ad-
vantage mot to do so. They relish a
good lie as does an American a bright
joke.
Yratitude is unknown among them,
and theft is second nature. All the
men are born gamblers and both sexes
are addicted to the excessive use of
tobacco and rum. They are confirmed
skeptics and laugh in their sleeves at
their chief idol, Yehl, even while they
are sacrificing to him. Even their be-
lief in shamanism and witchcraft is a
dead letter, and, as Christianity has
not yet taken its place, they have no
faith. Polygamy is as popular among
them as it is with the Mormons.
The Cheerful Kolosh.
One thing may be said in favor of
the Eskimo"he is the most persistent-
ly good-natured chap in America, With
everything under the midnight. sun to
make him miserable, he laughs at hts
frozen fate and finds humor in conges-
tive chills. Pleuro-pneumonia is a
huge joke with him, and diphtheria a
delicate witticism. A@ for such petty
details as food, clothing and shelter,
they are to him absolutely ridiculous.
He can get along with less of them
than any man on earth, except the
'Wrisco Chinaman. I have seen him,
when the mercury was shrinking into
the lowest part of the bulb, trot around
with nothing on above his waist and
his feet bare. Nevertheless, when he
is playing in luck, he will swaddle him-

though I rett sorry for the seal, I could
not but admire the skill and strength
with which the harpooner sent his slen-
der steel plunging through the body of
the animal. This is a primitive method
of killing seals, but it is still popular:
among the Thlingits.
When I get more used to writing
with pen and ink on real paper once
more, and when the genial warmth of
the modest hotel at which I am stop-
ping shall have thawed the ice in my
veins, I will tell you more about the
peculiar and picturesque peoples among
which I have lived these many weeks.
At present it is an effort to think, and
my fountain pen is still frozen.

omighty sudden.� What is ruining the
Alaskan natives is not good whisky,
but bad rum"red-hot tanglefoot, that
burns and bites like vitriol.
DoesnTt Like the Native,
I have met the Alaskan native in al!
his phases, from grave to gay, from
lively to severe, and I am free to con-
fess that I am not yet prepared to hail
him as a man and a brother. As a man,
he is at best a rude apology; as a
brother, he would be a disgrace to the
family. He is about the dullest, slow-
est, dirtiest, meanest coyote to be
found anywhere on the North Ameri-
can continent, Philadelphia lawyers
~and Coney Island photographers not
excepted, and, so far as the present
generation is concerned, is, in my opin-
jon, utterly hopeless. Something may
be done by the Government teachers
and by the missionaries to reclaim the
youthful Thlingits, Eskimos and Aleuts
from their racial stupidity, but the
Alaskan Indian of to-day is a pernic-
fous and persistent barbarian, with all
modern improvements in the line of
savagery.
Since I undertook to prospect this
country for news specials, I have fallen |
uponT ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain. I have been in Sitka
just four days, after an extended tour
of Alaska, and have taken two baths
every day. This is just double my
usual number, but for three months
previous every square inch of me, ex-
cept my face and hands, has been a
stranger to water. You canTt bathe in
the open air in Alaska, save in the
Summer season, and the Russians who
preceded the American pioneers. neg- |
lected to build Russian baths. You see,
it Was part of the CzarTs policy to
truchle to the prejudices of the natives.
with Thlingits and Eskimos and Aleuts
in every accessible part of the great
Northwest. I have slept in the igloo of
the kolosh, with sledge dogs lying on
my chest and greasy Eskimo babies
sticking their pudgy feet in my face,
half suffocated by. the pot-pourri of
perfumes oemanating from a dozen
human and canine forms, and I have
huddled under the inverted kayak or
bidarka of the Thlingit, with the rain
beating upon every part of me except
my head and a bitter east wind chill-
ing me to the marrow. As fate or-
dained, I have made a meagre meal of
ulikan and seaweed cakes, or have
gorged myself on seal blubber and
moose steaks. I have discussed yukala
(a very fine trout) with the Aziavigiok-
hamiut and have shared shellfish with
the Aleut. To my, discredit be it. said,
I have tried to drink"fusel oil and al'"
the fearful liquor which the Eskimo
distills from flour paste, sugar, dried
fruit, berries, etc. I am happy to say
that I have been wholly unable to do
so. That vile decoction would over-
strain the bibulous endurance of a
Bowery lush.
Long before I returned to/ this, the
capital of Alaska, I learned to appre-
fire, made of the dry vines of the berry
of that name. Now I am luxuriating
-in the delightful warmth of a real coal
blaze.
The Various Tribes.

~ilizing influences than any other tribe. | |

She bas by law, what she has by cus-

to build a new igloo or kayak or bidar-

or to cut his hair without consulting
