"Jinkyswoitmaya."
By C. H.
It was In the spring of 1897, while I
Tras employed on botanical and geo
logical work In Alaska, that I made the
acquaintance of "Jlnkywoltruaya,"whom
yn called "Jinks" for short. He was
he son of a Russian "claim-Jumper"
nd an Aleut Indian squaw, and he
Uvea in the little village of Nutchek,
'Hinchinbrook Island, Prince William
Bound.
Jinks bad bad rather an unhappy
illfe, for he was, in the estimation of
fclg companions, a coward ;he had that
Innate fear of water, probably inher
ited from his white father, cf which
one finds occasional cases in the most
aquatic tribes. Jinks could not be
Induced to enter a canoe for any pur
pose whatever, and on that account he
was the scorn of tho island for tho
(Aleuts sport and hunt on the sea as
it it were their natural element. But
Jinks is no physical coward, and this
la the story of how I found it out.
I had been in the village just two
days, when we had one of thofe ter
rifflc rain-storms that occasionally vis
it the Alaskan coast late in the spring'.
For three days and nights It rained In
heeta. During my enforced idleness
I made the acquaintance of Jinks, who
could speak a little English, and speed
ily became fond of me, because 1 nev
er snubbed him or spoke his name
with the obnoxious Aleutian adjective
which means "one who Is afraid" at
the end of it.
Jinks was then about fifteen years
old, but strong and wiry, and more
than ordinarily bright for an Indian
boy.
It was on the third day of our ac
quaintance, I think, that Jinks told
me of the wonderful view from a plat
eau of a mountain on the island. He
aid it could be reached by about five
tours' climbing. That any Aleut
Should notice a view as worth seeing
at ail, let alone as worth climbing for,
was surprising. This view, I thought,
must be remarkable indeed, and so It
happened that when Jinks shyly prof
fered his services as guide, I made
ready to go as soon as the rain should
cease.
After waiting a day for the streams
to subside and the wet ground to dry,
we started. We carried a knapsack
of food, a canteen of cold tea, a rifle,
a sheath-knife apiece, forty feet of
three'-eighths rope, a hatchet and a
binocular.
Tramping for an hour steadily west,
we came to the foot of Mount Kenl,
a hill some four thousand feet high,
talf way up which was the wonderous
lew. Then our difficulties began,
The way lay through dense woods for
while, the ground getting steeper
and steeper.
Now and then a stone would eart
from our feet and go bounding down
the mountain, smashing into trees, re
bounding, going on again, until finally
stopped by a tangle of underbrush; or,
lescaping that, it would go on and on
tmtil only the echoes of its crash
ing descent told that it was still cn its
way. The heavy rain had made the
ground easy to our feet, but occasion
ally the foothold would prove treach
erous and we would Blip down on our
faces. Several times we came to banks
o iteep and slippery it seemed as If
we were stalled; but Jinks could climb
like a monkey, and would crawl up
ahead aomehow, fasten the rope to a
tree and let it down to me, that I
anight haul myself bodily up after him.
W finally reached the end of eur
elimb, at a point about twenty-flve
hundred feet above the sea-level.
Here we turned to the right, on a
natural road of rock, traversing a sort
t miniature canyon.
At the end of halt an hour's walk,
we found ourselves at a standstill,
trough! up against a blank rock wa!l
thirty feet In height Nothing discon
certed, Jinks tied the rope about his
waist, kicked off bis disreputable foot
wear and began to climb the wall. How
lie did it I don't know, for I found It
difficult even with the help or the rope
"he let down to me.
qpee arrived on top, I soon forgot
all my tribulations In the wonderful
might We were on a narrow plateau,
' perhaps fifty feet wide a rift in the
'mountain which rose In sheer rock
walls on each side of us at a distance
pi a quarter of a mile. A tbln line of
trees was ahead of me, and beyond
them the ocean. Going through the
trees, I found myself on the ed;e of

spread out before me.
Directly in front the rock sloped
away steeply for about forty feet, then
took an abrupt dive downward, going
sheer to the sea in a perpendicular
line, about three thousand feet.
The Alaskan gulf below looked lllto
a huge panorama. Away off on tho
horizon I could see, with the aid of
my glass the white sails of a hull
down ship. On each side of me stretch

Mountains snow-capped always. I
will not attempt to describe the vast
and desolate scene bver which brooded
such a silence, accentuated by the oc
casional single sad can of a gull.
For perhaps the half of an hour we
looked and said nothing. Jinks ap
peared quite satisfied with my first In
voluntary expression of delight at the
picture, and I did net insult his per
ceptions by attempting to explain to
him how fine I thought it.
Then we lunched, and after that I

knoll of grass-covered earth, letting
my feet hang over on the rock slop?

changing lights and shadows of the

the Indian blood in him uppermost,

there peacefully, my thoughts on any

College Boys Getting Bigger Every Year, So Show Statistics of Five
Hundred Athletes in All Branches of Sports at Yale.
Tho American citizen of the future is to be a giant according
to the statistics of the athletic instructors, while his sister Is to
be a very sturdy lassie.
Dr. Born, medical director of the Yale gymnasium, made pub
lic the 1908 statistics of development in the university. For the
comparisons 500 athletes from the crew, the football and baseball
teams, the track men and the stuCent athletes generally were
measured.
The general average Is compared with the averages taken In
1903, and the 1908 averages are generally higher than had been an
ticipated. The new college man has grown an Inch and one-half In
five years. He has gained 27 pounds in weight, and has 72 cubic
inches more lung capacity than his prototype of five years before.
The list bears out the assertion, commonly made during re
cent years, that the American man was becoming greater physi
cally than any, known race of men have ever been.

IH I I Mil 1 l I
As I went down that terrible slide,
my first thought wag to jump to Eafe
ty, my next to spread cut and attempt
to catch on some projection cf rock,
and my last a prayer for help. Jinks
says I screamed and woko him, but 1
have no recollection of It. In three or
four seconds I had arrived at the edge,
convinced that another instant would
see me hurtling through the air to the
rocks three thousand feet below. On
the very edge I stopped, caught on a
small uprising bit of rock. I w2 flat
on my back, my arms extended on
either side of me and above my head.
I was bend In the form of a bow; my
body from my waist down was over
the brink. ,.,
I did not faint arid I was not light
ened, which sounds absurd, I know,
but it is true. Scientists will tell ycu
that In moments of great and Budden
danger, the instinct of self-preservation
overcomes mre fear. Be that as
It may, I was coM, elm, and much
alive to my very slim chance of escape
I could set move. I don't mean that
I was held, or that I was paralysed,
but I knew that if it should try to
move I must fall over the brink.
My senses-were abnormally keen. I
heard the cry of a gull so clearly that
I thought It very close, but just then
the bird came into my range of vision
and I saw it was a long distance a ay.
Jinks' shouting from forty feet above
seemed right at my ear by training
my eyes upward I could see the top of
his head but as be was excited and
talked Aleutian, I would not under
stand him. Turning my eyes the other
way and looking toward where my feet
should have been, I could see a little
strip of sea, the horizon and the sails
of a ship. I renicmbeieo 1 had seen a
ship before; I tried to tnmk when, but
could not. It bothered my sense of
location to see only the falls of a ship
when it was between me and the hori
zon, but then I reflected that its hull
was In the zone I could not see.
I did not think of ways to extricate
myself, because In one mental flash I
knew my only hope was In Jinks and
the rope, and I knew he had left it
tied to the tree where he had fastened
It for me to climb over the rooky
wall at the cud of the canyon. VA little
bit of earth, loosened from above In
some way, struck me gently in the
face. What If a large amount should
como down on me before Jinks could
get back with the rope?
"But it won't I'm quite sure it
won't Jinks will be here in a minute
now and then and then I'll get out
of this mess the rope" and then
a horrible thought: "Suppose the rope
Is not long enough to reach!"
Hope is, in a way, the father of fear,
and fear came to mo now with the
nearness of relief. I was cold. - I
didn't tremble; I suppose I was tco
much afraid that if I did I must fall
over the brink. But I wns very much
frlRhtened by my thought that perhaps
the rope would not be long enough to
reach me.
Although it seemed to me that I had
been hanging a long time on the edge
of the precipice, I realized that I
thought so simply from the swiftness
and number of my impressions. I tried
really to calculate the time, and final
ly decided it had been nearly twenty
minutes; but that estimate was exces
sive.
As the fright in a measure subsided
my body ached in uprotest against the
strained position of tho muscles; and
then suddenly I forgot pain.
I heard Jinks. "Comln' now, mlsser,
got rope, get up minute now-" finish
ing off with a long string of Aleutian,
which, although incomprehensible, wa9
very comforting. I could jiot see any
thing of him, except once in a while
the top of hU head. It occurred to
me, however, that there was really
nothing to prevent my turning my
head on one side. This I did, very
slowly and carefully, and at last, by
dint of much straining of eyes, I wa3
able to see Jinks away above me, and
In a curiously Inverted and distorted
perspective, working madly to. get tho
rope untangled.
In a moment !:e had finished and
then I had the impatient pleasure of
seeing the rope coming slowly down

like a thin, long snake. It was surious

to watch, because It was all rosn out
of the corner of my eye seen as one
sees a dream shapeless, vague,
yet painfully real.
and
Now I heard nothing, felt nothing,
neither pain nor fright saw nothing
but hls travesty of a snake coming
Elowly toward me. Slowly crawling,
sliding, stopping and coming on down,
catching on bits of rock and dropping
again, it gradually came nearer, Of
course it really came down in a few
Beconds jutt as fast as Jinks could
pay it out but impatience and the
abnormally acute state of my nerves
made it seem a long time. And then
It stopped just six inches above my
hand!
. My arms were stretched to their fuT..
est extent, but the rope did not reach
my bands. - It did not seem to me to
matter much; it must have been that
I sutiiWe'd" Jinks had not finished pay
ing; out all the rope. Then, after a
moment, the rope receded tome four
or 6 feet, underwent sundry gyrations,
and Jink disappeared from view.
Then the rope descended again, this
time with about a foot to spare.
I held my breath, got a good firm
grip with one hand, and then with the
other; and then, putting my weight on
it slowly and timorously, afraid It
might give in some way, I began to
haul myself up. At last I got my
feet on the rock, and the rest was easy.
Turning on my face, l could help my
arms In their task of hauling by stick
ing my toes Into cracks and on projec
tions, as I had seen Jinks do. Half
way up I had a terrible moment the
rope seemed to give a little, and at
the same time I heard a smothered
cry from Jinks. T
Now I was but ten feet from the top
now eight now six four three feet
another haul and I was almost there
one foot safety! And then I under
stood why Jinks was not In sight. He
lay at full length on his fact, his arms
locked round the tree he hau used as
a pillow earlier in the day, the rope
knotted around one angle. The rope
some faint Idea of what poor Jinks
had lengthened it with his own body!
Any one who has ever attempted to
remain suspended by the arms for
more than a few seconds will have
osme faint idea of what poor' Jinks
must have suffered on that rack. I
weigh one hundred and eighty pounds.
The pain he endured without a mur
mur can be indicated by results. One
of his arms was out of Joint; that a
counted for the sudden give In the
rope and the smothered cry. The flesh
on the ankle where the rope had been
tied was cruelly crushed and brulspfl.
Except for seeing him lying there
suffering that I might live, I mutt have
fainted away In reaction from the ner
vous strain. What I did do was per
haps aa weak, but I trust excusable, I
fell on my face, beside Jinks, with one
arm round his neck, and burst Into
sobs. In a moment he was sitting1 up
his dark face shining with joy, in spite
of his pain, that he had saved "mlsser"
from death.
I bound up his poor, crushed foot,
pulled his arm back into place, and
with Infinite difficulty helped him
home. We arrived just before nW
night. We were nursed biek to health
and strength, and so loud were my
praises of Jinks, he Eoon became tho
hero of the town.
To make this state of things perma
nent, I resolved to take Jinks to Seattle
on the steamer with me. when his
companions found that he was really
to go to the "land where the guns are
made," and on a "magic ship," he was
immediately raised in the estimation
of his mates to the position an Amen-

owned a marble factory, bad a dozen

was enabled to make them all under

and what a heroic thing he had done

A Cbntagious Idea.
Imitation may be a nuisance rather
than a form of flattery. A writer in
the Outlook tells of an incident Jn a
bank which Is as amusing as It Is
probable. Tho toller wa3 asked by a
woman for a new envelope fjr her
bank book. It was passed out, and
the lady behind, noting that her own
envelope was a trifle dingy, also ask
ed for a fresh one.
The third woman said, "Me, too," or
words to that effect, and so It went
down the line. When the teller's pa
tience and his stock of envelopes
threatened to give out he determined
to call a halt.
A fastidiously dressed lady appear
ed at the window, he! ling out a per
fectly gloved! hand.
"I should like; one, too, please," said
she.
"One what, madam?" asked the tel
ler. ,
The lady flushed and began to look
comical.
"Why." she stammered, "what the
other ladies had." Youth's Compan
Ion.
Alcohol's Derivation.
"Alcohol" is really the Arabic "al
kohl" "al" being the definite article,
as in "algebra" (the reduction) and
"alkali" (the soda ashes), and "kohl
the black powder wherewith the east
ern beauties stained their eyelids,
But "alcohol" came to be used for
any finely triturated or sublimated
powder, and then for sublimated liq
uids. "Alcohol of wine," being1 the
most interesting of these, It gradually
took the name entirely to ltiolf.
