Saturdays baseball game between the
Genuine Cuban Giants and the x Cuban
Giants on the Pacific Athletic Club
ground on Johnston avenue, drew only a
small crowd. 1t failed to interest the
patrons of baseball in this city as much
as vas expected. The meeting between
the dusky colored giants was OF an in
teresting nature and afforded the specta-
tors lots of amusement. The players tried
their hardest to win, but the Genu1neS
were over anxious, consequently the game
went against them. The x Cubans who
have asserted their skill ever since the
break away from the Genuines two years
ago. played much the faster game and
won by better batting. They scored SIX
runs in the first two innings, three more
in the sixth and one in the seventh: me

The latest in draperies is the Italian
blankets, or, at least, the wide mes may
be called blankets. and they AIRY in
width from six inches to two, yards. They
are woven in stripes, raw silks on a cot
ton foundation. and the effect is both brill
Liant and beautiful. They are designed
for couches, lounges, mantels pictures
and chair draperies, and some come long
enough for portieres. The stripes, which
run either 1engthwise or crosswise, are in
all colors and brilliant combinations. The
effect of a single piece in an otherwise
neutrally tinted room is very pleasing,
but too free a use of it is to be avoided
in all save oriental rooms. as it is too
glaring.
A. new and excellent idea for the fall
o is to have them arranged with side
openings for the arms. This makes it
nossible to button the front closely, and
we can all see what an improvement the
novel fashion is on the old one. Ones
arms are then free to move without all
1ouing the sharp wind to penetrate too
closely. and the added comfort and protec-
tion are very desirable. The preference
in these capes is the high stiff collar, al
though some of them show revers and
rundown collars, these latter being worn
with fur or feather boas.
Footing is again in favor for neck and
wrist ruchings, according to the "Delin-
eator.s Those who nave crimpers of

The two Carlson boys had tried for
three years and at last struck It.
They sold for 100000, with sc5,OOO in
cash, and came to wait for the steamer
to take them home. One brother
came down with typhoid fever and
died. Then, down came the other
one and he, too, soon died, and all in
two weeks.
A man named Benson worked five
years at stretch on Bonanza bar on
Forty-Mile creek and has not even
come TO post for supplies. Now it's
a toss up whether he will get out with
the money he has toiled for so long, as
he is down with scurvy.
One man says: "I was in Alaska
first in 1886 and 1887. I've been here
four years. This last trip I've worked
all the time and l haven'ta pile or a
claim, Yet men who came in last
spring met Others who passed them
along the trail and asked, well, have
you staked claim yet p They seem
to think all they had to do was to 90
out, put down u stake and begin pick
Ing up the g1ld,"
]. A. Peterson, the Juneau trader,
says; "There are not more than 1875
paying claims on the whole Yukon
placer mining country; 45 above Dis
covery on the Bonanza creek, 40 below
and 40 on El Dorado. There has not
been an ounce taken out of Dominion
or Hunker, for all their talk, and as
for Henderson or Stewart river dlscov-
cries. which so much talk has been
made about, colors only have been the
rule there. The best bar digglngs in
the world are there, but no bed rock
diggings, such as have been talked Of.
If you want to know the facts con-
corning the Yukon country here they
are. Upward of 1900 men have been
there for two or more years, and of
these no more than $50 at the most
have made $40, 600 each"
A miner says: "There are only two
creeks that have yet shown themselves
reliable gold prOducers.and the claims
on these are pretty well monopolized
by dozen or SO lucky ones, who kept
buying claims until they practically
own the whole works."
Another says: "Am l going back {?
l have seen what this copntry is like.
l have had my experience and l want
the gold, but il is not worth haying
for the price, in my opinion. Lots of
men are bringing big sacks of gold
away. and lots of them are not so
big. Lots OF men up there are making
and have made fortunes. One hears
about them, but there are plenty who
have not made their expenses aud
who will come out broke and broken
down in health, too. Why there are
men there right now who have been
prospecting in Alaska for years. who
are in debt to the stores and have
been since they have been in the
One man / know has been
