On Snow-Shoes to the Barren Ground.
The British Northwest.
Far to the northwest, beginning ten
day’s journey beyond Great Slcave Lake
and running down to the Artie ocean,
with Hudson Bay as its eastern and
Great Bear Lake and the Coppermine
River as its western boundaries, lies the
most complete and extended desolation
on earth. That is the Barren Grounds,
the land whose approximate 200,000
square miles (for its exact area is un-
known) is the dweHiang-place of no man,
and its storme and sterility in its most
northerly part are withstood the year
round by no living creature save the
musk-oq. There is the timberless ‘waste
where ice-ladened blasts blow with hur-
ricane and ceaseless fury that bid your
blood stand still and your breath come
and go in painful stinging gasps ; where
rock and lichen and moss replace soil
and trees and herbage ; and where death
by starvation or freezing dogs the foot-
steps of the explorer.
‘There are two seasons and only two
methods of penetrating this great lone
land of the North—by canoe, when the
watercourses are free of ice, and on snow-
shoes during the frozen period, which
occupies nearly nine of the year’s twelve
months. The deadly cold of winter,and
greater risk of starvation, make the
canoe trip the more usual one with the
few Indians that hunt the musk-ox.
But, because of the many portages, you
cannot travel so rapidly by canoe as on
snow-shoes, nor go so far north for the
best of the musk-ox hunting, nor see
the Barren Grounds at their best. or
worst, a8 you care to consider it. That
is why I chose to make the attempt on
snow-shoes.
Arthur Heming, the artist, and I
found ourselves, December 27, 1894, at
Edmonton, the end of the railroad. We
had travelled on the Canadian Pacific
via Winnipeg and Calgary, and through
the land of the Crees, Blackfeet, and
Sarcee Indians, without seeing anything
£0 picturesque in the way of costuming
as the Winnipeg dragoon and a Sarcee
young woman resplendent in beads and
glittering tinsel. I really ought to
include the mounted policeman, for he
too has a uniform which, with scarlet
jacket and yellow-stripped breeches, is
deserving of greater attention But the
mounted policeman has that which is
far worthier of comment than uniform.
He has the reputation of being the most
effective arm of the Canadian Interior
Department. And helives up to it. These
“Riders of the Plains,” as they are
called, patrol a country so large that
the entire force may lose itself within
its domains and stiil be miles upon miles
apart. Yet this comparative handful
maintains order among the lawless white
men and stays disconteniment among
the restless red men in a manner go sat-
isfactorily and so unostentatiously as to
make some of our United States exper-
iences read like those of a tyro.
The success of the Northwest Moun-
ted Police may be accredited to its sys-
tem of distribution throughout the
zuarded territory. Unlike our army, it
oes not mass its force in forts adjacent
to Indian reservations. Posts it has,
where recruiting and drilling are con-
stantly going forward, but the main
body of men is scattered in twos and
threes over the country, riding hither
and thither—a watch that goes on re-
liet after relief. This is the secret of
their success, and a system it would well
repay cur own government to adopt.
The police are ever on the spot to ad-
vise or to arrest. They do not wait for
action until an outbreak bas occurred ;
they are always in action. They con-
stitute a most valuable peace-assuring
corps, and I wish we had one like 1t.
A NEW YEAR'S DANCE IN THE NORTH-
WEST.
Half-breeds—French and Cree—con-
stitute the larger share of population
at La Biche, it I may class as iis popu:
lation those scattered over the imme-
diately surrounding country, and
where the settlement consists of just
three cabins besides the Hudson Bay
Company's. But, alter .all, the
French blood reveals itselt chiefly in a
few Christian names and in the more
fanciful coloring and use of some arti-
cles of wear, for there is little French
spoken, the children of mixed parent
age almost invariably adopting the
mother tongue, Cree. There are uot
more than one huondred Crees who
come into La Biche, which is the most
northerly post where treaty money is
given, and they are not thriving to any
great extent, nor increasing. The an-
nuity of about five dollars a head is
not sufficient to support and just
enough to interrupt keen bunting ;
they plant a few potatoes, which grow
here fairly well, but are making no
progress towards self-support, as are
those of the same nation more to the
south.
After what I had seen the night
before of the preliminaries to the
annual feast-day, I did not expect
on New Year's to be able to
make any preparation for our furth-
er progress. Long before we bad
turned out of our blankets the house
was literally packed with Indians, and
by noon time the fiddle was going and
the dancers had entire poseesston of
the floor. I doubt if I ever saw, out-
side of some of the Chinese dens in
San Francisco, so many crowded into
the same space. [ lacked the heart to
talk business with Gairdner, who, I
divined from some of his remarks, had
not accomplished, in the way of mak.
ing ready our dog brigade, all I had
expected of him. 1 simply pitied him
for the unpleasant and malodorous ful-
ness of his home, and I pitied his half
breed wite and her daughters, who
were kept cooking for and feeding half
starved Indians from early morn until
late into the night. Heming took his
pencil and scratch pad and I my cam-
era, and we went out to see the New
Year’s day arrivals and the dogs and
the Indians.
In front of the fort's Hoshae ere
ossiping groups that grew with eac
ay while scattered all about
the enclosure, just where their drivers
had lett them, where the dog trains of
tbe Indians who had come to fill
Gairdner’s house and eat the Hudson
Bay Company’s meat. There was no
stabling nor feasting tor the these
dogs ; in a 24 below zero atmosphere
they stretched out in the snow and
waited, without covering, and many
cases without food. The Indians with
their blanket coats or capotes, and the
dogs and sledges and “jumpers,” made
a picturesque whole against the un-
broken background of snow, but, like
all Indian pictures, its attractiveness
faded away on the close inspection
that discovered the dirt of the man,
and the scraggy, half starved condition
of the beast. These people had never
before seen a camera, and many of my
plates show them scurrying away or
turning their backs. It was only after
the most elaborate descriptions to
Gairdner, who instructed the interpret-
er, who explained to the Indians, that
we induced one or two ‘‘types’ to sit
in our presence while Hemiug sketched
them. They thought we were making
“medicine” against them, but were
won over by Heming drawing the
moose and caribou, while they watched
the animals they knew so well develop
under his pencil.
When we returned to the house the
dance was still on ; it was always “on’’
during the first thirty-six hours of our
stay at La Biche. Formerly the Hud-
son Bay Company officers merely ‘“re-
ceived” on New-Year’s day ; but as
the Indians have a custom between
sexes of kissing on meeting, and as it
did not become an impartial officer to
distinguish in this respect between old
women and young, unattractive aod
attractive, the feast was substituted ;
80 now the women are fed and danced
instead of being kissed.
I hope that New-Year’s night will
not be recorded against me. Those
Indians danced until four o'clock in
the morning, and they danced to my
utter demoralization. We sat around
and watched the *‘gymnastics” and pre-
tended we enjoyed them until about
one o'clock ; then we retired We all
three slept in Gairduoer’s office, a tiny
apartment from the main room by a
thin board partition, of which a good
quarter section in the centre was re-
moved to admit of the two rooms shar-
ing a single stove. There was a piece
of [loosened sheet-iron tacked to the
partition to protect it from the heat,
and my head wae against that parti:
tion, and our blankets on the same
floor upon which those Indians sprint-
ed and jumped and shuffled |—by Cas-

World's Fair Hotels.
They Aic Being Sold in Job Lots,
and Retail, to Suit Customers.
Wholesale
Some of that class, of structures in
Chicago known as ‘‘ World’s Fair hotels”
seem to have been destined to a peculiar
fate. The better class of them are still
in use, esther as hotels, flat buildings or
apartment houses. The cheapest of
these structures have nearly all disap-
peared. With a few of them final dis-
position is a more difficult problem.
These are too good to- be sacrificed to
make kindling wood and not good
enough, either in design or construction,
to attract tenants. Since the grand
rush of exposition days they are desert-
ed. One of them, which stands on a |
busy south side thoroughfare, bears a
big sign with thi: inscription :
For Sale—Doors, Windows, Win-
dow -Sashes, with Weights, Jambs, |
Castings, Laths and Planking, and oth-
‘er Portions of this Building.
The building is still intact, but it will
be sold piecemeal. ~ If one wishes to buy
a window ths sign invites purchase.
The man in charge of the building
said he would rather sell the whole
thing, but he couldn’t, and therefore he
would sell as much of it as he could.
“If some one wanted to buy the front
door, would you sell it ?’’ he was ask-
ed,
“Yep.
“Would you leave the place open ?”’
“No ; board it up.”
“Supposing some one wanted to buy
the weather boards, the outer portions of
the walls, would you sell them ?” :
Sell anything ?”’
“The roof ?"’
“Yes, or the foundations.”
“Have you sold any part of the build-
ing yet ;’’ -
“No ; just put the sign up.” :
“Supposing one wanted to buy the
roof and take it away immediately,
would you sell it on that condition ?”
“If you want it just try me.”
“Why you are trying to sell the
house at retail ?”’
“Because it’s for sale and there ain’t
no qualification on the word ‘sale.’ It’s
for sale at wholesale, retail, in job lots
or on the instalment plan.” :
“Would you make a discount if one
would buy a good deal of it ?”
“Cer-t-a-i-n-l-y. Didn’t you see the
little sign out there ?”’
The little sign read :
amounts for cash.
Then a man, seedy looking and rubi-
cund, who had been reading the big
sign, shuffled up to the salesman.
«“What'll you sell me a door knob
for 7” :
“Don’t you want thatlock that goes
with it 2”
“No, I got th’ rest.”
“Well, don’t you want the other
kneb ? There’stwo knobs to a door.”
“J jus’ want one.” :
“Well, you're a little too retail for
me.”
The chilly manner of the salesman
repelled the rubicund man instantly and
he went away.
“You ses,’’ said the salesman, it ain’t
no snap se’ling a hotel that’s too good
for kindling wood and ain’t good enough
for a hotel nowadays.”

No Stoves in Mexico.
“In old Mexico we have no stoves,”
said Antonio Estrado. ‘Most of the
houses are built ot adobe bricks, with-
out floors, and the fires are built on the
ground, where all cooking is done. In
the more aristocratic families the Amer-
ican pattern of cooking stoves has been '
introduced, but only a few of them are |
in use.”
The Spirit of the Home Coming.
There are many people who regard
a Thanksgiving day as a meaningless
day, and its celebration once a year a
waste of time and a mockery. If might
have been, they go on to say, a day of
reality to those who in early colonial
times had hostile tribes, inclement
weather, and threatened starvation to
fight, and whose natures were wrought
upon to all their depths of fear and gra-
titude. But for us in these days of no
national crises, in these days of money
getting and materialism, a Thanksgiv-
ing day means only a day in which,
oftener than not observances are a
bore.
Yet for all that, and in spite of what
the croakers say, year after year in
every home in town and country some
glad preparation for it is made. Feasts
are prepared. Welcome stands ready.
To the returning wanderer arms are out-
stretched ; to the homeless wayfarer
the hand is extended. Cost of labor and
pain of preparation are forgotten in the
joy of reunion. All the year that has
gone has been with many but as a vista
looking toward it. For them all the
year to follow shines as a new pathway
leading to the same bright end.
No New Englander, close pressed as
he may be, stays willingly away from
the family gathering on that day. Rich
and poor alike are stirred by one com-
mon impulse—to go home. One man
may want to feel once more the comfort
of an old familiar chair that no change
of fashion has moved from its long-ac-
customed place. Another wants the
sense of peacefulness that belongs to a
certain sunny window with geraniums
in it when all the world without is quiet
and stillness reigns within. Some want
the nursery, with its tattered books, and
some the associations of old sounds, as
the clicking of the gate or the hurrying
of familar footsteps up the stair. Some
want the friends of childhood ; and
back of all, and through all, and over
all, each and everyone wants the finding
again of the mother, the face and the
voice and the touch -of her—ot her
whose love has never faltered, whose
sympathy has never failed, who wel-
come them without reproach, who re-
joices in them witholit envy, who is
proud of their success without measur-
ing their failures, who has kept her
ideal of them undimmed, and yet who
will minister to them the livelong day
as to one saved from an angry tempest.
her arms their support, her warm heart
their resting -place.— Harpers Bazar
Snake Bites.
“Whisky will never cure a poisonous
snake-bite,”” said Prof. Theodore A.
Schurr,the naturalist of 30 years’ exper-
ience. “The idea that whisky is an anti-
dote for the bite of a rattlesnake or any
other venomous reptile is a delusion so
popular and general that I always take
special pains to correct and expose it in
my lectures. Whisky never will or never
did cure anyone bitten by a snake, but
because some person took some whisky
after being bitten by a harmless snake
and recovered he attributed his cure to
the whisky, and so the idea gained cir-
culation. I have never known a case to
be cured by the use of whisky and have
known several cases where it has been
used, to result fatally. Whisky only adds
additional poison to the system instead
of removing and destroying that of the
snake. The only thing that will cure a
person bitten by a rattle or other poison-
ous snake is the use of permanganate of
potash. This is an effectual cure in al-
most every instance. The venom of a
reptile is injected into the blood, and the
poison destroys the blood globules. I
was bitten by a rattler op my index
finger and immediately took my pocket-
knife and made a deep incision near the
wound and pressed all the blood I could
to the surface and out of the wound so
that the poison could not be taken up
and distributed through my system. The
bitten part was then cauterized and it
caused me no trouble whatever. Whisky
is not very good to use at any time, and
no good for snake-bites.”
Once upon a time a flower bloomed.
The sun softly kissed it, and the gentle
rain descended upon it, and it was alto-
gether lovely.
“Ah !”? sighed the flower, ‘but one
lot for me i$ fitting. I may well speak
the thought of sweet maidenhood.”’
The sweet maidenhood ‘came and
plucked the flower and it was glad, sent
the flower to a man in jail who had
murdered his wife and 14 children be-
cause his oatmeal was burned, and it
was very tired.
Shipping Wood to Australia.
As wood is largely wanting in Aus-
tralian gold fields, several steamships
are now engaged in carrying timber
from the Pacific coast for use in Aus-
tralian mines. The steamships carry
from 2,000,000 to 2,500,000 feet each.
The wood is California pine and fir.

Bank Note Poisoning.
A bank cashier of Vienna recently
died from the effects of touching his
lips with his fingers when counting
money. At an examination of the
vaults it fell to his lot to count a large
number of small bills, and although
repeatedly warned, he continued me-
chanically to touch his lips when his
fingers became dry. That evening he
felt a smarting pain in his lip, but did
not attend to it until aswelling had set
in, the next day. He then consulted a
surgeon, who insisted upon an imme-
diate.operation on the tumor, “that had
in the meantime assumed alarming pro-
portious. But in spite of the operation
the patient died three days after of blood
poisoning.

ten with all the author’s well-known charm of
manner, will begin in the December Number.
1895, and continue until May. A new nove
by George du Maurier, entitled The Martain,
will also begin during the year. Itis not too
much to say that no novel has ever been await-
ed with such great expectation as the suc-
cessor to Trilby. The Personal Recollections
of Joan of Arc will continue and will relate
the story of the failure and martyrdom of the
Maid of Orleans. Other important fiction of
the year will be a novelette by Mark Twain,
under the title, Tom Sawyer, Detective ; a
humorous three. part tale called Two Mormons

and short stories by Octave ‘I'hanet, Richar
Harding Davis, Mary E. Wilkins, Jullan Ralph,
Brander Matthews, Owen Wister, and other
well-known writers.
Prof. Woodrow Wilson will contribute six
papers on George Washington and his times,
with iliustrations by Howard Pyle. Poultney
Bigelow’s history of The German Struggle for
Liberty, illustrated by R. Caton Woodville,
will be continued through the winter. Two
papers on St. Clair's defeat and Mad Antpony
Wayne's victory, by Theodore Roosevelt, wit
graphic illustrations will be printed during
the year.
A noteworthy feat are of the Magazine during
1893 will be a series of articles by Casper W.
Whitney, describing his trip of 2600 miles on
snow-shoes and with dog-sledge trains into the
unexplored Barren Grounds of British North
America in pursuit of wood bison and musk-
oxen. Mr Whitney's series will have the add-
ed Interest of being illustrated from photo-
graphs taken by himself.

Ix 1896
Harper's Weekly is a journal for the whole
county. It deals with the events of the world
that are important to Americians.
In carrying out this policy, in 1895, Julian
Ralph visited China and Japan, and journeyed
through the West ; Richard Harding Davis
took a trip through the Caribean Sea : the evo-
lutions of the new pavy were described and il-
lustrated by Rufus F. Zogbaum; Frederic Rem-
ington presented studies 0) Army and Frontier
life ; Poultney Bigelow attended the opening
of the Kiel Canal,
In 1896 like attention will be given to every
notable happening. The chiaf events in art,
literature, and music and the drama will be
artistically presented. W. D. Howell's in the
new department, Life and Letters, will discuss
in his interesting way books and the social
questions of the time. E. S. Martin's sprightly
gossip of the Busy World will be continued.
The progress of the Transportation Commis-
sion around the World will be followed, and
Casper W. Whitney will conduct the depart-
ment of Amateur Sport. :
In 1896 will occur a Presidential election. In
its editorials and through its political cartoons
the Weekly will continue to be an independent
advocate of good government and sound
money.
In fictionthe Weekly will be especially strong.
It will publish the only novel of the year by
W. D. Howells, and a stirring serial of a Scotch
feud, by S. R. Crockett. The short stories se-
lected are of unusual excellence and interest.
In every respect Harper's Weekly will main-
tain its leading place in the illustrated journal-
ism of the world.

ing its deserved reputation both as a Fashion Lv Ar!
Journal and a weekly periodical for home
reading. ;
Every week the Bazar presents beautiful
toilettes for various occasions, Sandoz, Baude,
and Chapuis illustrate and engrave the newest
designs from the finest models in Paris and
Berlin. New York Fashions epitomizes cur-
rent styles in New York. A fortnightly pattern-
sheet supplement with diagrams and direc-
tions enables women to cut and make their
own gowns, and is of great value to the pro-
fessional modiste as well as to the amateur
dressmaker. Children’s Clothing receives
constant attention. Fashions for Men are de.
scribed in full detail by a man-ahout-town.
Our Paris Letter, by Katharine De Forest, is a
sprightly weekly recital of fashion, gossip, and
social doings in Faris, given by a clever wo-
man in an entertaining way.
Both the serials tor 18986 are the work of
American women. Mrs Gerald, by Maria
Louise Pool, isa striking story of New England
life. Mary E. Wilkins, in Jerome, a Poor Man,
discusses the always interesting problems o
the relations between labor and capital. Short
stories will be written by the best authors.
Special Departments. Music, The Outdoor
Woman, Personals,What We Are Doing, Wom-
en and Men, repor! and discuss themes of
immediate inserest. :
Answers to Correspondents. Questions re-
ceive the personal attention of the editor, and
are answered at the earliest practicable date
after their receipt.
The volumes of the Bazar begin with the
first number for January of each year. When
no time is mentioned, subscriptions will begin
with the number current at the time of receipt
of order.
