Another Version of Alaska.

Washington, - - Paymaster King
and Master Hsnus, Of the Unsted States
navy, publish in the Washington Post
to-day, an article taking issue with Pro-
fessor Elliott, Of the Smithsonian Insti-
tute, lie regard to the population and re-
sources of Alaska. They say they have
been stationed in Alaska for twenty-six
months, enced last August, and have
personally traversed the whole of the
southeastern section and instead of the
total number of white inhabitants of
Alaska being only 1872. as Elliot asserts,
they confidently declare that there are
about $40 whites at harrisburg. $50 at
Wrar gel, 200 more at Sitka, not inc u
ding the $50 Russian creoles there, who
are entitled to be classed as whites, and
numbers of others at more than halfa-
dozen smaller settlements, where whites
are found in companies ranging from
three or four up to fifteen or twenty.
They also say it is 8 great mistake TO as
ser. that no valusble minerals have been
discovered in southeastern Alaska, and
add that from Hams burg. q settlement
not yet q year cid, over $50, 900 in gold
dust has been sent below, and sales Of
quartz veins have been made st high
figures with the view of working them
next season. Enough has been done to
show the great value Of the placer
grounds, and exceeding richness Of many
of The lodges and it is certain there will
be large addition to the population
next spring Further, we know that the
agricultural prosperity of that section is
rapidly developing, and that the climatic
difficulties in the way Of it are far from
inseparable. Further still, there are
now measures on foot to develop the tim
Der interests, in one kind of which, the
yellow cedar, SO valuable and so sbuud-
ant in Alaska, neither Washington Ter
ritory, Oregon nor British Columbia can
compete with Alaska.

ROBBERY IN FLORENCE.
A Hotel Keeper Tied to His Bed and His Premises Ransacked-A Daring and Successful Robbery.

The Lewis House, in Florence. was the scene of d daring burglary on the night of the 24th ultimo. After lock Ing up the house and bar-room, Mir. C. G. Lewis, the proprietor, retired to his sleeping room about midnight, leaving us usual the door leading to the garden open. Some time after ward he was awakened by noise in the room, and by the dIm light burn ing he could distinguish the forms ot four masked men in the room. He immediately spIang up to grasp a heavy cane near the head of the bed, but was stricken down lnsensible by a blow from pislol or slungshoJ. Up on recovering consciousness he found himself bound firmly To the Eed and the men buslly rausacking the trunks aud clothiug. Not a word was spo- ken by the robbers, and they implicit ly obeyed the silent gestures of the one who appeared to be leader, a tall man, wearing a broad-bnm, black slouch hat. He stood by the bed with a ix-shooter leveled at MT. Lewis, and directed the men by mo- tions. After ransacking everything they began to pile trunks and furni- ture upon Mr. Lewis, when a warn ing whistle was heard outside and they immediately hurried out. It Is believed but for this interruption they would have piled all the furniture on the bed and set fire to the room.
 The housekeeper, on coming in 10 awaken MT. Lewis, in the morning, discovered him as described, still in- sensible from the exposure and pain endured by the great weight upon his body. She immediately called for help anG the unfortunate gentleman was released from his perilous posi- tion.
 Examination of the premises re- vealed the fact that the burglars had opened a small safe behind the bar and abstracted therefrom about $64OO In money, and scattered about the papers which 1t contained. A con- siderable sum in wash-stand drawer was overlooked. The robbers also attempted to pull two rings from Mr. Lewis fingers but they it so close it was abandoned.
 No clue to to the perpetrators of the crime has yet been developed. A re- ward of $500 is offered by MT. Lewis for the arrest and conviction of any one of the robbers.
