Captain Brainard a Trif1e Skep-
tical as to the Use Of
Reindeer.
Informed There Is No Food for
Them Along the Dalton
\ Trail.
Alki Brings Reassuring Advices
From DawsOn--NO One
Will Starve.

CHICAGO, Dec. 30.-Captain D. L.
Brainerd, who is to lead the govern.
ment Klondike relief expedition and is
now at the Virginia hotel, is busy pre-
pairing and sending to papers in st.
Paul, Kansas City, Seattle, Tacoma,
Portland, San Francisco, and in this
city, advertisements for proposals for
supplying the food.
The advertisements call for the de-
livery of 260,00 pounds of food at
Skaguay not later than Feb. 8. The
more important items called for are
5000 pounds of bacon. liz, 900 pounds
of -four, 5000 pounds of beans and
peas, 900 pounds of butter and 1000
cans of condensed milk.
Captain Brainard said it had been
decided not to try to use condensed
foods, except milk, both for the reason
that it was felt that this was no occa.
sion for trying experiments, and be-
cause of the belief that the foods adj
vertised for would be found more suit
able to the needs of the occasion than
condensed foods. He said he would
leave for Vancouver barracks in day
or two, and that it was expected the
expedition would leave Skaguay about
the middle of February. 1t will be
composed of 30 soldiers. 20 Lap drivers,
and 500 reindeer, and it was thought it
would be able to make the trip to Daw-
son in four to six weeks. The one
thing that was troubling him now, he
said, was the fear that they would not
have sufficient food for the reindeer, as
he had been informed no reindeer moss
grows along the Dalton trail.

WITH THREADS OF METAL

Tinsel Fabrics and the More Costly Bro.
cades Of Gold and Silver.
Tinsel fabrics are the lower priced OF
the cloths into which gold or silver
threads have been woven. In tinsel fab.
RIGS the gold threads are of brass or COD.
per, gilded, and the silver threads are
of white metal. These threads of metal,
originally fine wire, are rolled fat and
FURNISHED, and they glisten in the fabric
wherever the pattern brings them to the
surface Tinsel fabrics are made about
three-fourths of yard in width, and
they sell at rs cents to So. SO a yard.
They come in various colors, and many
of them are beautiful and artistic in de-
sign. Some are copies Of old Venetian
tapestries Tinsel fabrics are used for
church ano for theatrical purposes and
purposes.
The costlier fabrics, with interviewer
metal threads, are called gold and sill
yer brocades. In these the gold threads
are of silver, gold plated, and the silver
threads are of pure silver; the body Of
the fabric is of silk. The brocades are all
beautiful, and many of them are ex-
ceedingly SO. These fabrics are made
about five-eighths of yard in width,
and they sell at various prices up to $25
and sometimes as high as $50 yard
The costliest of these fabrics are very
rarely imported into this country, bro
cades at $40 and $12 yard being about
the highest priced used here. If more
elaborate fabrics are required, they are
usually imported to order. The finer
fabrics, with metal threads, are made
in France, the commoner kinds in Ger
many.
Gold and silver brocades are here
used almost exclusively for church pur-
poses and chiefly fo1Avestments. They
are imported in red, violet and green
and also in black with silver threads,
the black and silver being fer mourning.
Gold and silver brocades are also used
to a limited extent for decorative pur.
poses.
Such fabrics and gold embroidery.
often of the costliest description, are far
more commonly used in Europe than
here, both for church and for military
purposes. New York Sun.

"Reminiscences of the Civil War Related
10y an Old Soldier.
Among the men wounded in my
regiment at a battle in Virginia, said
the old soldier, twas man in my COM
pany whowas shot through the body
and taken to tho rear. Our troops fell
back after the fight, and we had more
wounded than we had transportation
for, but two men out of his own tent
set out to carry this man wherever we
were going, which was presumably
the camp behind intrenchments that
we'd left in the morning.
'"They took turns at backing him for
half mile or so until they came to a
farmhouse that had grassy yard in
front. They laid him down on the grass
and took little look around the house
to see what they could see. In build
ing at the rear they came across some
thing that made 'em stand still and
look at each other and laugh. 1t was a
hand cart. What use the folks here had
made of it they couldn't guess, but they
knew what use they were going to make
OF it. They got it out of the building
and rolled it around the side Of the
house alongside the wounded man and
dropped the handle on the grass. He
laughed, too, when he saw it. He was
going the rest Of the way in a private
ambulance.
The two men took their blankets off
their shoulders and united them and
spread their rubbers down on the bot
tom Of the hand cart and spread their
wooden blankets down on them, and
then they ran the hand cart up and rest
cd the handle on the front steps OF the
house and lifted in the wounded man
and laid their guns in beside him. Then
they turned the cart around again, and
one man got inside the shafts, with the
crosspiece against his waist belt, and
the other man got behind to push. They
all smiled again when they started,
wounded man and all.
1t beat backing him out OF sight 1t
was dry weather, and the roads we're
sandy, and up hill and on the level the
wheeling was hard. But there was
more down hill than there was up,
places where they had to hold back,
and it was all immensely more COM
Portable for tho wounded man, and so
they got him back to camp and to the
surgeon again. But he died after all "
