business. Apart from the interests
Of either the railroads or the broker.

A LONG INSIDE PASSAGE.

Navigating tIie Ocean Among Thousands of Islands.
 Whatever may be said-and much can be-of the beauties of the Alaskan coast, it is not inviting to the seafaring man, and especially the master who is taking ship by tho inside route from Puget sound to Sitka or Juneau for the first time, feat, so it is claimed. impossi- ble of accomplishments by a continuous voyage save through the assistance of a good pilot This passageway-fo by the mainland coasts of British Cp lumbia and Alaska and chain ol is- lands ranging i'll length from to 250 miles-is from 100 yards to several miles in width. The channels proper are of unusual depth. In places from 300 to 400 fathnms of water are fre- quently found From the smooth, glassy surface ledges and reefs, assassins of the sea, Turk, ready to send some ship, humanity laden, to the bottom. In these waters the lead is supplanted by whistle | echoes from tho land, this being the only method during fog by which the captain or pilot guides his vessel along | q saIe way.
 Old sea captains say there is no WA ter course in the world where in unfa. vorable weather such skill is required as to guide ship via the channels on a voyage from the sound and return, the round trip to Sitka being more than half the distance of the voyage across the Atlantic. The Pacific Coast Steam ship company $ vessels running to Alas ka are always manned with two pilots each ill the winter and spring and are never without one pilot. With at least two of this company's 8 vessels now run ming to Alaska the captains themselves served an apprenticeship of many years ct piloting.
 The outside passage the one by the open ocean, is seldom used, on account of the unfavorable winds which prevail for distance of over 50 miles out to sea, rendering a vessel s progress much slower, to sss nothing of the danger of ships being taught in a gale and driven ashore. With the danger from wreck almost eliminated by the employment of professional pilots, the inside passage is rendered a most delightful voyage, as it abounds in beautiful scenery and is free from winds Seattle Post Intellj. gencpr

that she should, with barefaced atfroL-
