There is one Belfast (Mc.) youth who
will make q general some day, If he
properly develops his natural traits as
they appear at present. He is but three
years and eight months old, but showed
engineering skill in getting out of u
scrapc Inst week that few big boys
would have equaled. While at play in
q camp with some other boys he was ac-
cidentally locked in, and his comrades
oil went off to school. Finding himself g
prisoner, instead ofsitting down and cry

Next he throw out the various articles

fobacco and Gold on n Par on the Upper

ioDacco and Gold on n Par on the Upper
Yukon River, ALASKA.
X. d. Miles, recent visitor in San
Francisco, gives the Call a graphic ac-
count of tho prices current for ordinary
commodities on the upper Yukon river,
Alaska.
lie has, according to the Call, just re-
turned from that country, where, he
states, there were over one hundred
men at work during the last summer
washing gold from the river bars and
riffs. The majority of them will winter
in that country.
"Wcll, I'll tell you, am glad to get
back to civilization again" he said.
Gold is plentiful; in fact it is an ordi-
nary trick for man to wash out from
twenty to sixty dollars a day, but a
man needs all that to live anyway COM
Portable in that country, and he has but
little to show after q season of hard
work.
when / left that country q trader
with small stock of goods was making
his way up the river from some of the
coast trading points in a canoe. In
fact he had several of them loaded with
provisions. He was assisted in his Jour
ney by half dozen Indians.
"Nell, when he left, after selling out
his cargocs, he had about all the gold
dust the miners had washed out in four
or five months of steady work.
we ran short of provisions, and had
subslsted on bear meat and other game
SO long that we willingly parted with
nearly all we had to get some civilized
eatables.
"Ncll, this trader-his name was En-
nons-sold the several sacks cf spuds
he had with him at the rate of from
thirty to flfty cents per potato.
lis Hour sold for twenty dollars a
sack, and we were just glad enough to
pay live dollars pound for the very
poorest quality of tea he had with him.
lie had several sides of bacon in his
stock, which he disposed of at about
one dollar slice. A few sacks of tho
dcspiscd bean brought one dollar n
pound.
I'VE had been out Of tobacco for near
ly two months, and had drawn but lit
tie solacc out of pipefuls Of dried leaves
and moss. When this fellow appeared
ON the scene we took him to our hearts
as bcnefactor and gave him ounces of
gold for plugs OF tobacco. An ounce of
and nineteen dollars at tho mint here.
Eve bought a hundredweight of on
ions, for which we were assessed six
ounces Of gold.
Il tell you what, we poured out the
dust upon that fellow Emmons, and he
had so much of it don't think would
like to take the contract to pack it from
here to the city hall.
You must not think from this ap-
Palling price list that We were starving
to death. We had plenty of game and
fish, but that kind of grub pals on the
appetite"
The boys" however, appear to have
made money on the Yukon river bars.
MIR. Miles states that all of them have
'stakes," and he came down to Victoria
with several of them who had s'cleaned
up" from twelve thousand dollars 70

Old Point Comfort.


Old Point Comfort.
RICHMOND, April 19.-The large crowds at
Old Point Comfort are entirely beyond the
capacity OF accommodations there and In
the neighboring towns and country houses.
The prevailing prices for everything, e.
pecially boarding, lodging and conveyances,
are accordingly very high. The German
war vessels Kaiserin Augusta and Stadler
have arrived aud their officers were roy
ally received The boat race between the
crews of the Chicago and Of the Philadel-
phia resulted in a victory for the Chicago
men. There was a baseball game In the
fort between the Chicago midshipmen and
a nine picked from the rest OF the Ameri-
can fleet. 1t was won by the midshipmen
of the Chicago.
Twenty six vessels are now in the Roads
The weather continues good Craft OF
every description enliven the harbor. The
visiting between the ships and to and from
the shore presents lively and impressive
picture, one that has never been equalled
in that capacious anchorage. The Hydis
hotel lobbies and parlors at uigbt ere
crowded with naval officers in full uni.
form and women In the latest creations OF
dressmaking art.
A strange thing happened yesterday.
Admiral Gheraidi visited seventeen ships
and not a gun was fired. Arrayed in his
best uniform the admiral boarded a steam
launch and went off to pay official calls
upon the vessels Of the first American
squadron, the five Englishmen and the
Dutchmen. The admiral ordered that no
salutes be fired. and of the foreigners he
requested that the same noisy honor be
omitted. Yesterday afternoon he went,
to the six American ships, but he was car
ried around IN silence

"But what do you find to counteract
