A breeding-ground was surmised, but thedifficulty of navigating in the mist waters had to thistime vetoed every effort to solve the mystery of thesummer home of the pinniped.The Pribilof Group consists of five volcanic islands,composed entirely of cinders and lava. The twoprincipal islands, and those occupied by the seals, areknown as St. Paul and St. George. Besides thesethere are three smaller islands known as Otter andWalrus Islands, and the little islet of Sivitch or Sea­lion Rock, Walrus and Otter Islands are particularlycelebrated as being the breeding-grounds of millionsof sea-fowl. St. Paul, the more important island, isvery irregular in form, the greatest length being aboutfourteen miles, and the greatest width about ten. Thevolcanic crater of Bogaslof (Russian, "the Word ofGod") is the geographical center of the island, andrises to a height of about six hundred feet. Aroundthe greater part of the island runs a long, low, sandybeach, easy of access, where the seals haul out with­out difficulty, and where they are to be found ingreater numbers than on any other spot on the earth.St. George Island is smaller and much more elevated than St. Paul, its shore line is much more regular, andits sides rise out of the water so abruptly and sosteep that there are only a few places around' thewhole coast upon which anything coming out of thesea can find a footing; consequently the number ofseals landing on this island is of necessity limited.The islands are situated near the path of the Japancurrent, which, on meeting the icy waters of the.north, brings forth the dense summer fogs for whichthe Bering Sea is so justly famous and in which thethe islands are almost continually enveloped fromMay to September. In August there are a few cleardays; but with fair weather the occasional stormsbecome more violent, and by the middle of Septemberall vessels which can get away find it well to leavethe Bering Sea. With October winter sets in; withit come many clear days, but between them areviolent and tempestuous storms; the floe-ice gathersabout the islands, and from November to April noboat has been known to land.On none of the islands is there a sign of tree,shrub, or vine. A prairie vegetation flourishes duringthe short summer, when the elevated portions of eachisland are covered with moss and grasses, in whichare found surprising numbers of very showy wildflowers. The lower sandy portions are covered witha coarse, rank rye grass. It is impossible to raiseanything by cultivation, for no matter how rich thesoil may be, there is not sunshine enough to warmthe earth and ripen the crop.On these islands, barren and cheerless as they are,with a climate of continuous fog, damp, and howl­ing gales live the remnants of two interesting colonies-the seals and the Aleuts.Every season with the lengthening days come theremnants of the once great seal herd-remnants be­cause of the pitilous pursuit of the pelagic hunter.A few warm days in April or early May will see thefirst bulls, as the old male seals are termed, haulingout from the sea and taking their stations whereverUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.there is a rocky beach of sufficien t size to protect themfrom the breakers. Their wives soon follow themand July finds the whole rookery extent covered bythe savage "bulls", the docile "cows" and the playful"pups" . The younger males, or batchelors, are notpermitted on the rookeries by the beach-masters, sohaul off by themselves on adjacent ground-technical­ly known as "hauling grounds' '-and from here theyare easily driven by the Aleuts to a convenient spot,where, in the event of a seal drive, the entire able­bodied male population of the island, comes out fromthe village to engage in the work of slaughter. Thenatives, working directly under their chief, who receivesorders from the Treasury and the company agents,are formed into three distinct classes, "clubbers,' �"stickers" and "skinners," the clubbers and skinnersbeing the skilled labor, the others being the beginnersand the inexperienced hands. A' 'pod" of perhapstwenty seals is separated from the main drive, sur­rounded by natives with long hickory clubs, and theseals of kill able size are rapidly despatched with ablow on the skull. One blow is usually sufficient, thethin bones of the skull _ being crushed by the heavyclub, and instantaneous death resulting. Thoseunder or over size are allowed to escape and return tothe sea. N ext follows the sticker, who bleeds theanimal and cuts the skin around the neck, flippers anddown the breast, making it ready for the skinner, whonow takes the animal in hand and rapidly removes theskin from the carcass, skillfully cutting it clean andfree from the underlying blubber, this difficult andexacting operation taking for each skin from one tothree minutes for a skillful operator to perform. Theskins are now carried to a salt house where they areput in kench and further prepared for the Londonmarket.Following the killing gang is another party, scarcelyless interesting-the female portion of the native popu­lation. They take possession of the killing ground andrapidly strip from the carcasses all the edible portionsand other parts for -which they find use in their do­mestic economy. This they carryon their backs tothe village-when large amounts of the fresh meatare at once con summed and great quantities jerked forwinter use.Not so well suited to the lives of men are theseislands-though in fostering care there are probablyno other people to-day in Uncle Sam's domain whoreceive a greater amount of his concern and protection.The original colony of something over a hundred soulsare recruited from Unalaska, Atka and other islandsof the neighboring Aleutian chain, and brought to theislands by the Russian Trading Companies for the pur­pose of performing the labor incidental to the prose­cution of the only industry that makes these islands valuable-sealing. Only a very small portion of thepresent population is descendent from the primitivecolony, for the mortality is great, the people short­lived and families soon run out, so there is a constantrecruitment from the more favored lands. A pristineAleut is about as wild, savage and uncouth an indi­vidual as one could find-closely resembling the Eski­mo, he is only a trifle more attractive in person andhabits. But with the Russian occupation of Alaskacame the missionaries and priests of the Greek church.The natives were taken into the fold, at the toe ofa boot if necessary. Their barbarous manners andwild superstitions were white-washed over by this me­diseval church, and intermarriage among the Russiantraders and the natives assisted in the process. Sothoroughly has the Russian influence permeated thatSEA LIONS AT NORTH EAST POINT, ST. PAUL ISLAND, ALASKA.today. the "natives" are only less Slavonic than Aleu,tian. For the past twenty years the American govern­ment has been attempting to instill into their conscious­ness a few American ideas, but it has been found to berather discouraging work, as long as the bigotedpriests of the moribund church are permitted in theirpresent position of influence.To-day the natives are required to live in comforta­ble wooden cottages instead of the dark, damp, filthybarraboras of whalebone and sod. Coal and coal oilhave been introduced in place of a flame of seal blub­ber, civilized clothes are, worn, cleanliness insistedupon and in the conventions at least the Aleut is re­quired to live up to the American ideas of civilizedsociety.A community plan is followed by the govern­ment in the administration of their islands. Thecompany pays into a general fund fifty cents foreach skin taken. To this is added a lump sum bythe Treasury Department, the total being sufficient toUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.support the islanders,' and the whole is placed underthe control of the Treasury agent on the island, andby him orders are issued on the company's store asthe needs of the natives require. In return the'- natives must perform all the labor of sealing for thecompany, and any work for the government withoutfurther pay. Only in this way are the prodigalitiesof the natives controlled; the experience of allowingthem money has been disastrous, all their earningsfound their way to the coffers of their church, or tothose of the company's store for unnecessary finerywith which to bedeck themselves.Seal meat is the staple food of the islanders; whenit can be obtained they care for nothing else. Oneof the natives being asked what he liked best to eat,replied "seal meat." On being questioned whatarticle of diet occupied the next place in his estima- the Sabbaths, all of which are holidays on which nowork can be performed.Devoted as they are to their church, they observeevery routine of its teaching, including the celebra­tion of some hundreds of holy births and deaths. Atthe Christmas season they hold carnival for twoweeks, masking in fantastic array and each eveningmaking a round of the village, singing, dancing andfeasting.Most of the holidays and all birthdays are Emanni­miks, or festival days. On these occasions they giveand receive calls, the happy possessor of a birthdaygiving presents to his friends, a curious contrast toour own custom. -On the more notable emannimiksthere are apt to be several chi-petes, or tea parties inprogress. Or the entire village will hie to the schoolhouse and hold a grand ball; not a dance, or a hop, ora party; such would not fittingly describethe dignified occasion nor be to the tasteof the fastidious Aleut-their function isalways a ball.' The great ball of the yearis on St. Paul's day, the anniversary of thediscovery of the island. A description ofthe one of last July will suffice, as all theirsimilar affairs have much in common.The school-house floor had been speciallygreased with blubber, the room was bril­liantly illuminated with tallow dips, andelaborately decorated with wild flowers. Itwas in the midst of the sealing season, sothe natives had to be up betimes, in con­sequence it was an early dance, and everyone arrived at the hourof seven. "Every­one" is used unreservedly, for every humanbeing on the island was there, from thechild-in-arms t� the ancient widow lady,from little Antone Melovidof to his lord-_ ship, the English Seal Commissioner. Allthe company folks, all the surveyors, the "Govern­ment" and the "Government's wife," the Chinesecook, and everyone else, they all came. Two rev­enue cutters happened in, and the officers with thecharming' 'C. O. D." of the Perry added their presence.Arriving at the hall the women sat on one side, themen on the other. Many of the women's toilets werevery elaborate. Karaskovia, the belle of the evening,was a symphony in brilliant purple skirt, red waist,red stockings and tan slippers, with a salmon-pinkthrow for her shoulders. Others were dreams incombinations of the primary colors.Promptly at the hour of seven the orchestra startedin with a furious waltz. A man would cross over,grab a woman, and off they would go at the madpace. After a few whirls around he would drop her,perhaps in the middle of the floor, and grab another,INTERIOR OF THE GREEK CATHOLIC CHURCHON �T.

Whenseal meat is to be obtained they will touch nothingelse, and it is really remarkable the quantities of itthey will consume. After a killing the field is prettythoroughly cleaned, every available piece of meatbeing taken to the native homes; as much as they areable they consume at once-the remainder is driedand packed away for use when the storms and icecome and drive the seals away to the southward.Life in these islands at best is cheerless. Out-doorwork is possible only from May to October. Theyhave no tasks to perform in doors. So, for sevenmonths of the year, the people hibernate-waking upsufficiently to attend the weekly store-day, and tocelebrate their many church festivals, which, by theway, is no inconsiderable task, as there are fully onehundred and fifty holidays in their calendar, besidessearch inaugurated by Chicago, Illinois and Michigan,becomes more general."If you say that we are overstepping our rights, webeg to present the case as we see it.

Association has not. causedany loss in cast on our part.The College Atlzlete, which is the authority on collegeathletics in this country, made the following state­ment of our action which we believe worth the re­printing, not merely because it upholds our action atthat time, but because the thought therein expressedis well worth the repetition:"The warfare in the Western Inter-collegiate Ath­letic Association over the amateur standing of May­bury bids fair to cause a permanent split. From ourdistance, we cannot judge with the fairness of men onthe ground, but the weight of argument is stronglyagainst the Wisconsin man."Let us be plain. We find no fault with the manwho runs for money, if he comes to the front andadmits it. A college education is not closed to ayoung fellow because he is a professional' athlete.What we do demand is that he keep his hands awayfrom college athletics. And we further demand, asa 'Voice of the college amateur athletic world, thatcolleges and universities that are offering cash con­siderations to induce promising athletes to come undertheir colors, change their methods before the spirit of amateur association has shut out possibilities of glory$ .75 for straightforward, faithful young fellows who see in2.50the record and the medal more than gold can evergive."Where is the remedy?" There is one in the inde­pendence of the inter-collegiate, associations from allexterior' athletic affiliations, and the forbidding oftheir individual athletes competing-for certain athleticclubs, before graduation."The English conception of athletics is essentiallyamateur. The boundary line between the profes­sional and amateur fields is more exact with themthan with us. The types of the two athletes on theirside of the water are more radically opposites than wecan hope to witness here for many a day. The Shef­field handicap man and the Oxford runner have littleor nothing in common. The former is surroundedwith the associations of the book-maker, and thelatter is absolutely free from the taint. When anamateur becomes a professional he does so by an openstep, announcing his action. Here, he remains fora while under the cloak of his early career as anamateur.,·It is essentially an element of our American lifethat we do things in a machine way. So many hoursto sleep, so much to eat, so many yards run in a day,round out the sprinter's routine. The �hole plan oftraining is an intricate system, as capable of demon­stration on paper as the prognostications of theweather bureau. This exactnessI has a numericalvalue that is akin to dollars and cents. In reality,the whole business-it is a business-borders danger­ously on a commercial rating.

No stops are permitted be­tween the changes, and during the progress of thequadrille, often lasting a full hour, each man dances afigure with each woman, and each time an intermedi­ate one with his partner. After the first quadrille thecompany is pretty much exhausted and ready for the'refreshments, which are now passed around by the"elders" of the village. These consist of tea, sweetcakes and store candy.

Kennedy, captain of the football team,returned to the University Sunday. For the pastweek light practice has been held on Marshall Field,but from now on the work will again become syste­matic and there will be more purpose in the work inthe development of new material. Monday an opencall was issued to. all football players who are going toenter the 'Varsity in the fall and try for the team, toreport for work at once on, Marshall Field. About adozen men have already been at work. Most prom­inent among them is Slaker, from Aurora, Ill. He isa born football p�ayer and is' surely a find for our team.He has a powerful build and while his position hasbeen half-back on his high school team, he can playalmost anywhere. Another good man is Fogel, amember of our track team. He has both strengthand weight and will show up well. Ewing andFreeman of Morgan Park are quick and know thegame but their light weight will seriously handicapthem. The other new candidates who have presentedthemselves are, Ritch, Webb and Gaylord. Some oflast year's scrubs will be back soon to swell the list ofaspirants. Schmahl is probably the best of that lotowing to his weight and nerve. He has, however,not had much experience. Holste, end on the scrubs,is working hard, but, owing to sickness, he has lost inweight.As to the regular team, they will all be backexcept Bowdish, guard, and Garry, end. Speed,Herschberger and Kennedy are already here and therest will report during the first weeks of September.There has been much talk that Gordon Clarke wasnot coming back, but he will be on the campus againin the near future. Gardner and Hamill will be thelast to report. They get into the condition so fastthat they will be in good shape when they're needed.As in the past years we will again use our own al­umni as coaches. Besides Prof. Stagg, Henry Galeand- Charley Roby will be the assistants. Threebig games have been arranged. Northwestern willplay on Marshall Field Oct. z znd , and Michigan,Thanksgiving Day. The third game will be with theUniversity of Pdnnsylvania at Philadelphia, on Oct.29th. No official word has been received from either Wisconsin or Illinois about games, but alumni of bothschools have written Capt. Kennedy and expressedtheir hopes that Chicago could meet their colleges on /the gridiron this fall. If Illinois plays Wisconsin andour trouble with Wisconsin is not patched up, we can­not, in accordance with the stand we havetaken, playIllinois. If, however, Wisconsin is willing to concedethat she is in the wrong, we would probably play bothIllinois and Wisconsin. At all events Chicago muststand on her dignity.'Practically nothing can be said about the pros­pects of the team, but Capt. Kennedy and, CoachStagg think they are of the best.Notes.Illinois has sent out a call for new men to report atfoot-ball practice the first of September.All the members of our last year's foot-ball teamare on good terms with the examiner. He, at least,cannot prevent Stagg from turning out a winningteam.Tennis Tournament.The Woman's Western Championship tennis tour­nament began Saturday at' the Kenwood countryclub. The University has three representatives onthe courts, Miss Pound, Miss Tilton and Mrs. Stagg.Miss Pound will not play in the singles, as she holdsthe championship and will only defend her title attheclose of the tourname?t. Mrs. Stagg has improvedwonderfully since last year, and Saturday she playeda remarkably fine game, defeating Miss Craven instraight sets. The victory is remarkable because MissCraven was cliampion two years ago and because Mrs.Stagg outplayed her at every point of the game. MissCraven was erratic, Mrs. Stagg accurate. It wouldnot be a surprise to see Mrs. Stagg outclass a few ofthe cracks and land in the semi-finals or even thefinals. The score of the match was 6-4, 6-4.Monday Mrs. Stagg continued her fine tennis play-ing and defeated Miss Parker 4-6, 6-0, 6-4. -Miss Tilton was less fortunate, losing to Miss CarryNeely, who took part in our invitation tournament.This puts Miss Tilton out of the singles, but she willbe seen in the doubles with Mrs. Stagg. Miss Poundhas Miss Wimer for partner in the doubles. 47IMiss Anna Monsch, who has been visiting her sister atBeecher, has returned to Louisville, Ky.A comprehensive and illustrated article on our Universitywill appear.in the next issue of Our Day.Harry D.
