Women Going to Alaska. ).

Among the arrivals from Alaska
yesterday, says the Examiner of the
18th, was E. o. Sylvester, proprietor
of the Alaska Herald at Sitka and
the journal at Juneau. Mr.. Sylvester
says the far northwestern part of the
continent seems to be the only sec
ton not affected by hard times. There
is, in fact, unusual prosperity there,
SO he says. Already over 800 miners
have passed in via Juneau for the
gold mines up the Yukon, and among
them were three or four women and
two ten or twelve-year-old children,
who will walk the long distance of
600 miles. The women wore mems
trousers as well as the ordinary dress.
"Last year the miners got a good
deal of gold," said Mr.. Sylvester. "I
know quite number who cleaned up
from $4,000 to $4,000 and $4,000
each, and this has awakened an in
terest and caused those women to go
in and join their husbands. The
gold mines about Juneau, especially
on Douglas island, are about as usual.
The Treadwell is working 200 men.
They are little short of water there
and are just now running little
lightly. The New Mexican Company
also on the island, has one go stamp
mill just about completed and ready
| to start.

Benedict Arnoid's Last Years.

The last years of the life of Bene-
dict Arnold were probably the most
unhappy that ever fell to the lot of a
man. The British were willing to use
him to promote their own plans and
to pay him for his disgraceful serv-
ices, but everywhere he was held in
such contempt and scorn that for
years he scarcely ventured to appear
in public. Before his treachery he
stipulated for fortune in cash and a
commission as major general in the
British army.
He got both, and soon spent the
fortune in speculation while the latter
did him no good, as no officer of the
army would serve under him; and,
although his talents and bravery were
unquestioned, he remained to the end
of his days.a general without a COM
mand, even at the time when the
British government was sorely pressed
for officers and men. In 1898, dur
ing the French war, when the coun-
try was anxiously gathering all it's
resources, he applied to the Duke Of
York for a command, but was re-
fused.
He went home in despair and said
to his wife: "They will not let me
find a soldiers death" He never
rallied after this blow, and soon after
his mind appeared to wander. He
ordered his continental uniform to be
brought, and put it on, including the
sword he had worn in the American
service, and SO he died, a raving man.
