nearest way to the mines. By that
route the point of departure for the
mines is Juneau, which is the most
thrifty settlement in Alaska.
Juneau is seaport and mining town,
Of 1000 inhabitants. 1t has schools
and churches, three newspaper, water
works, electric light plant, two good
wharves, large mercantile house s..
good hotels, paved ST. Gets and fire and

Leaving Juneau, Taiya, 100 miles

From Taiya to Lake Linde man, or

White Horse Rapids are half mile in
length, and greatly dreaded by the
guides. Every year number of men
are drowned at this point. During the
last two seasons more than 20 uufo~-
tunate men on their way to the gold
fields have lost their lives in these wild
waters, and the graves dot the desolate
shores. Within three miles there is
fall of - feet, from which the currents

THE next morning we began carry

caused by the mosquitoes and the
empty boats were guided down as be-
fore. Having reloaded our boats we
again set out. From White Horse
Rapids the river is safe and we made a
quick run to the junction of, the Tab
keena river, IL miles below.
TWENTY-SiX DAYS JOURNEY.
THE next day we started early, and
soon made the remaining fourteen
miles of the river and reached Lake

about five wide. 1t is stormy lake,

when nearing the end of the lake a
violent storm suddenly arose. Our

within five miles of the outlet, we had
to camp until the next afternoon, when
we resumed the journey, reaching the
outlet at night 1t was no small re ief

company owns the only boats on the

a WORD OF WARNING.
a Washington correspondent has
interviewed several parties who have
been to Alaska and writes on the sub
jet thus:
Tue fabulous reports of placer
mining in Alaska are fully credited
by scientists in Washington. Profs
Tittman ana Pratt of the United States
coast survey have Travelled extensively
in Alaska They assure The Republic
corr spondent that the klondyke re-
ports are born out by their own iuves-
LEGATIONS IN Alaska. They are not in
the least surprised to read accounts of
the amount Of god dust brought to
San Francisco this week from the
placers along the boundary between
Alaska and British Columbia.
Colonel Preston, the directOr of the
mint also confirms the statement of toe
amount OF gold deposited at the San
Francisco mint. The director says
that he is advised officially that still
other shipments Will soon be forw ard
ed from Seattle to New York: and his
I.-O
taken from the Alaska placers within a
very short time.
There is LO availa BILE information
from which an estimate could be made
of future gold products of this region.
Where gold Is in pockets, or M Xed
with earth, it is impossible to estimate
the extent of the deposits. In lode
mining, the output can be calculated
with some precision. In the placers
there may remain some untold mil
lions, or the fields may be soon exhaust
ed.
But the general opinion of Wash
ington experts is that there is a limit
less area Of uneXplored gold fields in
Alaska. The gentlemen of the coast
survey state that while travelling in
that territory they have frequently
seen their Indian guides pick up dirt
on the journey, and in pan wash out
large deposits of gold dust.
1t is but Latural that volume of in
Qulrles should pour into the land and
the geological departments at Wash
iugton. From all parts of the United
States thousands of letters are received
asking Tor information about the re-
ported Alaska GOLD fields. The writers
ask about the cllmate, the cost of
tran portation, the best route to the
Yukon mines, supplies and equipment
Lecessary, and, IN general, such in
formation as the intending prospector
needs to prepare for trip lntO dis
tant and unknown region.
THE WAY TO THE FIELDS.
The Republic correspondent has Sc
cured some reliable data upon these
various points. Those who cOntem-
plate trip to the various Alaskan
mining settlement, or are interested il
the published reports concerning these
mines, will find herein information
that is entirely reliable.
In order to each that portion of AL
aska known as the YUKON region, the
traveller has the choice of two distinct
routes. He can ascend the Yukon ri
yer or he can start at the headwaters
aud Ce,cend the stream.
The second IS the common and the

important items In the Yukon outfit.
With it the lum Der is sawed out aud
the boat constructed at the lakes
which form the headwaters of the
Yukon.
If the trip is made in winter, boats
are not made. Those who ''go in on
the ice," as they call it, leave Juneua
about March. On sleds they drag
their outfit over the pass. Then they
fix large sails on the sleds and sail
across all the lakes until they reach
The Lewis River, where they build
their boats for use on the Yukon.

ing must be made in an eddy above the
rocks. Six miles below Five Fingers
we came to the Rock rapids, the nOis-
/ lest but least dangerous in the river.
| This is the last obstruction, and from
here down to the sea the Yukon pre-
sents an unbrOken stretch of navlga-
ton Our fortunes from mosquitoes
could hardly be borne.
1.-THE next day we Travelled IA hours,
and at 2 o'clock reached the mouth of
Pelly river. The confluence of the
Levi is and Pelly forms the Yukon, and
is marked by the old post of Selkirk,
which was raided by the coast Indians
in 1852.
1--WE are now in the vicinity of the
gold mining camps. Starting down
the Yukon the following day, we made
"A miles and camped at Reliance.
Formerly there was a trading post here,
but not a vestige remains. On our way
We passed Sixty Mile Creek, where the
first great discoveries were made. The
DeXt stream we passed was the klOn-
dyke, corruption of an Indian word,
TOndatt, meaning salmon stream. The
inhabitants were anxiously awaiting
the coming of the salmon.
''The next day five hours pulling
brought US to the famous mining camp
of Forty Mile Creek, which was our
destination. From the time of our
departure from Juneau, June IL. to
our landing at Forty Mile Creek, July
6, we accomplished in 26 days a-jour
ney of $50 miles through a desolate
region"
The writer of this letter is an intelli-
gent traveller, man of high character
and entirely reliable. The narrative
Of his trip to the Klondyke camp, known
last summer only as salmon stream,
now exciting the attention of the min
ars of this country, will exhibit faith
fully the incidents attending like
Journey undertaken by any prospectOr
n summer.

Sometime the wind rustled with such

us to camp on the shore to avoid being

THROUGH THE RAPIDS.

'June % the wind ceased, after
blowing a tornado, and at IN. we
resumed the journey to the end of Lake
Bennett. This pc Mt is Cariboo Cross
ing, a shallow stream two miles long.
After breakfast we again set out, be-
ing anxious to get past part of Tagish
Lake, known as 'Windy Arm,' the
lake portion of the journey. Naviga-
tiOn in these waters, which are so re-
mote, and unknown on the maps, is
very difficult. We rowed steadily for
10 hours to traverse the length of Tag
ISL Lake, 10 miles. We camped near
the huts known as the 'Tagish
Houses" the only human habitations
in this desolate. lake country. Our
tent was infested by the most feroc Gus
mosquitoes and our misery cannot be
described.
''The next morning we started down
Lake Marsh, rowing. Swarps OF mos
quitoes followed. This lake is also 10
miles long. and very shallow. We
rowed all day, reaching the outlet at 6
o'clock. Here the current was swift,
and we were able to SHIP our oars and
fight mosquitoes as we drifted down
stream. We camped at 10 o'clock.
1.-The next morning we continued our
trip, through steep banks. About
noon we approached the Grand Can
yon, being warned of it by an increase
in the current. About 2 O'Clock we
came to bend where someone had
erected a sign, marked:
"'Dapger.'
"This was the stopping place and we
went ashore. One of our boats narrow
ly escaped being washed into the rap
ids at this point On shore we made
preparations for running the boats
through. At this point other parties
Joined us, and there were now five
boats in the group. We unloaded and
carried their contents TO quiet eddy
below the rapids. One s6itf, with
guide, and with the aid of ropes, was
then sent through the rapids 1t shot
into the.capyon with the speed of an
express train, and one after another
the other boats followed in the same
manner.
Below the canyon is two-mile
stretch of bad travel. The landing
here must be made in an eddy on the
