and improvements to the Alameda
and Mariposa, the popular liners of
that company. The work will be
performed at the compuny's dock in
Seattle this winter under the direct
ion of Supt. R. K. Pierson during
the period following the lull in the
Alaska trade, one vessel to be change
ed at a time. As at present ar

contemplated, an entire new house
will be erected on each vessel to
include wheelhouse, captain's state
room, chiirt room, quarters for the
officers and pilots. The ho«se will
be erected above the present upper
deck rooms, similar to the arrange
ment on the steamship Northwest
ern. The quarters vacated by cap
tain and officers will be transform
ed into two-berth staterooms and in
the ease of the Mariposa two more
staterooms will be added aft, which
has already been done on the Ala
meda. The change will give com
modious and retired quarters for
the officers and in addition will pro
vide 10 additional rooms on the Mar
ipoaa and S additional rooms on the
Alameda. 4
The addition of these houses wil
add to the general appearance of
the ships beside giviug more room
for passengers and better quarters
for the officers. In the Mariposa
the intermediate rooms on the sa
loon deck will be changed to first
class which will bring the first
class accommodations of that ship
up to that of the Alameda. The
entire work will be completed in
ample time to handle the expected
heavy traffic to Alaska next spring
I LOTTBKY MEN ARK IN
CIA'TCHKS OF THK LAW
-Now Yorl:, Oct. 10—Col. George
1$ Colton, governor of Porto Rico,
now on his way to Washington, bear
a report of a recent suppression of
a lottery swindle on the island, ac
cording to private messages which
have been received here. It is said
that the recent arrest of Man
ual Cerecedo, a rich merchant, as
the alleged head of lottery traffic,
has dealt a death blow to the lottery
evil and checked u fraud which has
taken from the insular people-near
ly $2,000,000 a year.
For three years the insular police
have been trying to run down the
I'orto Rico manager and agents of a
Santo Domingo concern which has
been selling lottery tickets in Por
to Rico. It is alleged that in the
home and place of business of Cer
ecedo at San Juan were found sev
eral hundred prize winning tickets
which had been cashed by Cere
cedo and books which it was alleg
j ed showed his accounts with the
lottery company and his sub-agents.
Gov. Colton, who retires from the
governorship next month is under
stood to be taking to Washington a
complete report of the raids and the
evidence which they furnish.

Returned From
the Dead
By E. D. LEONARD
"Your father is dead."
The announcement was made at 10
o'clock at, ui^ht to Albert Huntington,
a young man who stood in the room
where physicians had been attending a
dying patient. The son covered hin
face with his bands as if to shut out 8
realization of his bereavement. Then,
suddenly taking them away, he said:
"Why could he not have lived twn
hours longer?"
"What purpose would his living
those two hours have served?" asked
Dr. PuJalfer.
"I cannot explain to you without en
tering into a long series of legal tech
nicalities. But I can say briefly that,
my father's estate will pass into the
hands of a guardian for me. which will
Involve endless litigation. Tomorrow
will be my birthday. At 12 midnight
I will be legally of age and could en
ter upon the administration of my in
heritance myself."
The doctor made no reply. He seem
ed lost in thought. Then he drew the
other physicians into a consultation in
low tones and In a few minutes return
ed to the youag man and said:
"Scud for your uotary."
"lie is waiting below."
"Very well. You have heard of the
recent discoveries. I suppose, in refer
ence to what wo call death—that when
a man is pronounced dead and is what
wo have always supposed to be dead
he is not dead, lie Is like n man un
conscious under water. If he Is per
mitted to remain there he eventually
rots. If he is drawn above the surface
lie may be resuscitated. Your father
may be brought buck to life and possi
bly held there till after midnight."
"Do you moan it?"
"I do. At any rata, L and uiy col
leagues are willing to make the experi
ment. But to take advantage of our
efforts if we succeed you should have
witnesses here to testify that the pa
tient lived the day you l>eeauic of age."
"Doctor." exclaimed the young man,
grasping the physician's hand, "If you
do this you will make a friend of me
so long as 1 live. There is a reason
why I am so anxious in the matter
that I have not yet given you. A mar
riage was arranged by my father and
the parents of a girl I love that by the
terms of his will is indirectly depend
ent upon my coming of age and Inher
iting as a man instead of a minor. By
prolonging my father's life two hours
you will not only save my estate from
being decimated under an expensive
lawsuit, but you will unite a pair of
lovers."
While this dialogue was going on
the assistant doctors were administer
ing a hypodermic injection. Dr. Pul
sifer while waiting for the effect oc
cupied the attention of young Hunting
ton, commenting upon the discoveries
on which the expected result was
bated.
"It has l>eeu shown," lie said, "that
every function of life except conscious
ness may be kept up after death. Wo
hope to show that your father per
forms those functions. If his heart
beats and he breathes he Is, In the eyo
of the law, alive. Experimenters have
not yet reached a point where con
sciousness may be restored, but It 19
not unlikely that result may be at
tained."
One of the assistant physicians, who
ha<( his ear on the dead man's chest,
announced to Dr. Puisifer that the
heart beat faintly and asked If he
should administer another injection.
Dr. Puisifer looked at his watch and
saw that there still remained an hour
and ten minutes to midnight. "Walt
twenty minutes," he said, "unless the
heart beats cease."
"Doctor," said young Huntington,
"may I announce what you are doing
to those waiting below?"
"I would advise you to say nothing."
"I may at least give hope to the girl
whom I love and who loves me, may I
not?"
"Yes, but I would only give hope. I
would not explain the matter to her."
Huntington ran downstairs, and
when ho returned a second hypodermic
Injection was being given to the dead
man. In ten minutes the physician,

touching it here and there with a cam
