prised me more than my own constant
falling off of them. had reserved my
hob-nailed shoes for any serious noun
tain work that might occur, but after
slipping off of half the logs, Swimming
over the slick pine needles in the path,
sliding all over the wet moss of the hill
sides and essentially skating the whole
five miles into camp on the smoothest
bottomed shoes l ever wore in my life,
l came to the conclusion the serious
work had arrived.
Again that day number of interior
fur traders passed us on their way to
Juneau. We camped in the evening at
the deserted Indian village of Ah-kah-
tee. That was one of the toughest days of
the trip, the Indians being on the trail
from very early in the morning until
at night. OF course they took long and
frequent rests, but l think they were
needed ones. That evening several
complained of strained tendons, and
one of them adopted the heroic treat
ment of standing half an hour nearly
linee-deep in the ice water of the noun
tain stream.
Next morning lb cOulu De nOIlceu IHak
the Indians were getting sore where
the pack-straps cut, and some Of them
were seen to tear up great broad strips
of blanketing to make new shoulder
straps for packing.
Lunch time, on the 4th, saw us but
two miles on the trail, coming up to
the first packs at the village of Kick
moo (deserted), just above which there
is beautiful waterfall on the river.
That night we camped at a place
the Indians call 1.-THE pole bridge"
where number of pine poles had been
thrown from either shore to meet a
high rock in the center of foaming
cataract. These pole bridges are not
uncommon on trails, and as the trunks
are usually free of bark and slippery
with the water that has dashed over
them, they are not the ,pleassntest
ways, possible, of crossing dangerous
stream.
That evening the packers did not ar
rive in body as usual, but were
strung out, according to their strength
and endurance, from 5 until o'clock.
1t was getting clear that some would
fail me if the road ahead got any worse
or the slightest addition should happen

Many Indians, in moments of forget
fulness, will glue loose hairs on long
killed animals just to brighten up the
pelts a little bit.
All day we were crossing beautiful
mountain rills, with water cold as Ice
In the warm dusty day my eyeglasses
blurred badly with perspiration. In
the Arctic the frozen breath was as bad,
and in general the near-sighted ex-
plorer is short-sighted for going on
rough trip.
Camp 8 was but four miles from
No. :, but no doubt the packers
had done well for the first day.
That night learned new wrinkle
on roughing it. 1 had selected a nice
spot in n slight hollow, full of leaves,
for making down my bed. It was cut
off Just right at one end by log, half
buried in the turf, that formed an ex-
cellent pillow. The next morning the
Indians were up by 3, and they be-
gan cutting frewood from the part of
my tree that projected from the slope.
There were nine thousand seven hum
bred and forty-two other logs in the
immediate vicinity. all of them dry,
solid and reeldng with pitch, while
mine was water-soaked, rotten and
heavy, but they kept beating tattoo
on it with axes until o'clock, when
they got away with the first packs,
every mothers son of them stumbling
over the only part of the trunk they had
not yet cut up. For the first mile or
two the trail that day was strewn with
fallen timber. The natives are quite
careless with their camp-fres, and es-
pecially the signal smokes they often
send up when travelling, to convey intel
ngence to others far away, and this
burnt-out timber soon falls, forming an
almost impassable network of PROSTATE

a CANINE HERO.
An Instance OF Striking Intelligence In q
Dog.

An Instance OF Striking Intelligence In q
Dog.
I recently witnessed the following
little incident on the Thames, near
Twickenham, when the river was full
OF land-water, and therefore very swift
and dangerous: Two dogs-one a large
animal, the other a little terrier-were
enjoying n swim near the bank; but
soon the little one was carried out some
distance and was unable to get to shore.
By this time the big dog had regained
the shore, and seeing what was hap
pening to his companion, began run
ming backward and forward in the most
excited manner, at the same time whim-
pering and barking, and evidently not
knowing for the moment what to
do. The terrier was fast losing
strength, and, although swimming hard,
was being rapidly carried down stream.
The big dog could contain himself no
longer. Running some yards ahead of
his struggling friend, he plunged into
the water and swan vigorously straight
out until he got in a line with the little
head just appearing behind him. Then
he allowed himself to be carried down,
tail first, until he got next to the ter
rier, this being accomplished in the
cleverest manner, and began to swim
hard, gradually pushing the little one
nearer and nearer to the shore, which
was gained after most exciting time.
The fact of this canine hero going so
far ahead to allow for the strong cur
rent, and the Judgment shown in get
ting alongside, and then the pushing.
certainly seemed to me to betoken in
stinct of very high order.-Pall Mall
Gazette.
