nack From Die yukon.

The Hallock party referred to in yes
.terday's daily PIONEER EXPRESS gave us
a brief sketch of their trip, which is about
as follows: They lett Haliock on July
18th and arrived at Seattle five days lat
er. They were successful in getting
passage on steamer for St. Michaels,
that left two days later, for $500 from
Seattle to Dawson City. The trip from
Seattle to St. Michaels was an ordinary
seagoing voyage. nothing of inn
portance happened. A Short time after
they left the harbor however six of the
party got poisoned by canned fruit and
one of them died. At st. Michaels a
change was made from the ocean steam
-er to river boat, about the size Of an
ordinary Red River steamer. The Yu.
kon, at its mouth, is forty miles wide,
and widens out into swamps and low
lands. ~
Ali along up stream as far as Fort Yu-
kon. twelve hnndre miles, is the same
monotonous scenery. There is suffer-
emf timber everywhere along the shores
and on the islands for wood, for the
steamer, and this is furnished by the ma
tives, at nominal price. Atevery land
ing the native Indians, would flock
around with wild ducks and geese for
sale.
The party reached Fort Yukon on the
18th day Of September, after consider
able difficulty by low water. Here they
met a steamer that had been up river and
had to return, and numerous row boats
coming down with prospectors. Some
had gone up via Chiikoot PISS while 9TH
ers hal spent several years in the in
terror. The steambo company that
had been paid to land the passengers al
Dawson. refused to 60 any further and
also to take them back, now ordered
them off the boat. Out of the total num-
Der of prospectors in the party, 49,,
nearly half Of t,em concluded to pay for
their transportation back to SEATTLE rath.
er than TO attempt to go on UP the river,
as already cakes of ice were floating.
The balance If the party concluded to
go on. ~ ~. 8
The returning party found ready sales
for their outfits atfour times the prices
paid for them at Seattle. The first snow
fel. on the 18th ofSeptember. The boys
are not at all satisfied with the treatment
they received at the hands of the trans
portation company. One of the party
expects to 60 back in the spring, the bal
ance have had enough experience in the
far north.

THE POWER FOR WORK.

A Fine and Impressive Sermon by
Rev. j. A. B. Fry.
Many encomiums have been passed
upon the Inc sermon preached at Cen
tenary M. E. Church, sunday morn
ing, by Rev. A. b Fry, the able
young pastor of Grace church. He
was greeted by large congregation
and that his words we're elicitibg ad-
miration and commentator and max
ing a deep impression upon his hearers
was manifest throughout the delivery
of the sermon.
The text was taken from the 18th
verse of the 4th chapter OF Philip
plans: 81 can do all things through
Christ which strengtheneth me-"
The two leading thoughts were,
"There is Something to Do" and
"How to Do It." The conclusions
drawn from these divisions we're pre-
sented in logical and forceful manner
and ever and anon, upon wings OF deep
earnestness, the speaker arose to
heights of impassioned eoquence, while
all through the discourse ran crystal
stream of encouragement for the fai-
tering or disheartened Christian pill
grim.
Encouraging to the young, especial
ly, were his references to the diff
culties OF life and his injunctiOns to
manfully face them and overcome
them by the power of which he was
speaking and make of them stepping
stones to a higher eminence of ex-
perience and work.

WHEELING, w. Va, Aug. 10.-This
city was peacefully invaded this
morning by striking miners from
Ohio. They came for the purpose of
closing down Boggs Run Mine. the
only railroad mine In Wheeling dis
trict now operated. Men from min
ing towns along the Wheeling & Lake
Erie railroad also announced their
willingness to take part in the demon
station. which may last several days.
Two hundred more from Barton,
Maynard, Hasco, and other mining
communities in Eastern Ohio also
joined the crowd They announced
they would stay until BOggs Run joins
the strike. These, with the West
Virginia strikers now gathering at
Boggs, number about 400. In the
face CT this showing of force, hun
dred Bogg miners didn't show them
came to work. No one had the cour-
age to enter the mine. A meeting
will probably be held late today, but it
will be difficult to get men to quit the
mine and come to it. The campers
are provisioned from the Miners Aid
Store at Wheeling aud are prepared
to make long stay.
At a meeting OF Peddling Bank
miners at Bell Aire motion to shut
down was passed with some opposi-
tion. II they, too, shut down, it will
throw 1000 men out of employment.

factories 10 this place which will, in
turn, have to close down.

Making Appointments.

He Over-Stepped His Authority in
Making Appointments.
A letter from Washington says there
is growing possibility of an early
clash between Secretary Gage, of the
Treasury Department., and Collector
Harkins,. of the Fifth North Carolina
district. Let 1t be known first Of all
that for the Presidents extension of
the civil service rules Of July 26 last,
Secretary Gage is more responsible
than all other agencies mbined
Collector Harkins will, therefore, be
called on 10 show cause for his reckless
disregard OF the Presidents late order
with reference to the appointment Of
internal revenue officials n open viola
tiOn OF the law, and unless Ire 're-
traces his footsteps" as it we're, he
may Wake up one Of these fine morn
Ings only to find pointed little note
on his desk asking for his resignation.
The news Of Iarkins' late appoint
ments in North Carolina has already
reached Washington, with which Sec
rotary Gage displays little patience.
In the conduct OF his office he is stern
and resolute and will never bite his
tongue for anyone.
