Believes Climate Changing.
Captain Naud, of the Bureau of Fish
eries, believes that the climate in
Alaska is really changing for the bet
ter, due possibly to the shifting of
ocean currents. He recalls' that in
former years on- .more than ono occa
sion large vessels were compelled to
seek shelter and could not cross the
! Taku: there also were times when they
could not negotiate the Lynn canal.
Many persons claim that the Japan
current is circling closer tO't.he Alaska
ooast line each year; also :t- is a well
known fact that the glaciers of the
• coast line are rawtdly receding' and
that the winters are> no longer as cold
as formerly. It is said that in early
days Gastineau chaanel was frozen
nearly solid with ice.—Seward Gate

Wise in Their Old Age.
King Solomon and King David
In youth led wayward lives;
Each had a few affinities,
Besides their numerous wives.
But when old age came rolling on.
With all its aches and qualms.
King Solomon wrote the Proverbs,
And David wrote the Psalms.
