FROM ALASKA.

About two months ago Sam Ellington and s. F. Eaton left Albuquerque for Juneau, Alaska. On Wednesday Sam returned to San Marcial, and his part ner to Albuquerque, says the San Mar cial Bee. "A few pointers abont his trip and what they saw Tn that far away land may be of interest to our readers. Owing to the establishment of rival steambo lines from San Francisco to Alaska, great change has taken place in the rates of transportation. Where formerly cabin passage cost S70, you can cover the route now for $20, and $14 steerage, including meals. Juneau, the principal town in Alaska, and the outftting point for nearly all the Yukon miners, wns crowded with people.
 ''At Chilcoot, forty miles west of Ju- neau, and where the trail is first taken on leaving the coast, some TOO or 800 miners were camped.
 At Circle city, the principal mining town ou the Yukon, some 600 miners spent the winter. It is estimated that ut least 5000 new men will prospect the gold belt this summer, with the re- suit that something definite will be known of the extent of the gold fe posits and their paying value.
 "The town of Juneau is not a moral place as may be we'll expected. It has permanent population of about 3 900. Owing to the fact that the only require ment to sell liquor is to secure an inter- nal revenue license, the place is full of saloons and bawdy houses, and whisky is worth 25 cents drink. Two variety theaters are in operation and evidences of real frontier life predominates. Not withstanding these inducements, very little gambling or liquor drinking was noticeable"

 Honored Sir:-Your esteemed favor has been duly received. I hold that this is the very hour that would be ad- visable to bring about between the na- tions chiefly engaged in the worlds commerce mutual agreement in favor of the establishment of bimetallism The United States are freer by far in their movements than any nation of Europe, and hence, if the people of the United States should find it compatible with their interests to take independent action in the direction of bimetallism, l cannot but believe that such action would exert most salutary influence upon the consummation of an inter- national agreement.

SEVERAL CLEWS.
The Clothing Thief not yet Round
ed Tn.

Chief Yates was in Minneapolis
Thursday and thought that he hao
got track of the thief who robbed
Pond and Jorgehson's store. A man
answering the description got off OF
train there, went to cheap lodging
house, took off new suit OF clothes
and put on another new suit, and
after remaining only few moments
left, and his movements from that
time on are unknown, as track of him
was lost.
On the floor of the tailoring shop
the morning after the robbery a card
was found torn in pieces and scatter
ed on the floor. 1t was gathered to-
gether, and on one side was decipher-
ed the name, ''Henry Thompson y
and ON the other GLOW"
A member of the Salvation Army
thought that the thief might be d
man or his employee, living a few
miles from Winnebago City, but that
was on the supposition that another
name appeared on the card. No other
information has been received.
