It seems these clippings are an essential to the rogues' gallery. and contain pictures and descriptions of every we'll known rascal the world over. So it seems the newspapers are the best thief catchers after all.

here just long enough 70 gain an insight
into the true situation. The gold fields
will surprise the world more than ever
10 another year. Anumber Of men are
here at the hotel who have just come
out from the Klondike. They all tell
the same story. Not single man has
ever given the diggings bad name.
This is good town, has modern conven-
fences, such as water, electric lights etc.
It runs wide open but there is no shoot
ing or evidences Of the bad man. There
are five churches here, splendid hos
pital and many evidences Of higher
civilization. Men are here from all
over the country looking for opportuni-
ties 70 make money. Take II all in all
| Think that this country furnishes more
opportunities for making more in the
next few years than anywhere in the
country. would advise people not TO
come until early spring as they cannot
find anything TO do in mid-winter.
/ am going over TO Dyea and Skaguay
TO see what is going on. Skaguay has
1000 population, Dyea 1000 and Sheep
Camp 1000. Every one OF these places
will have several thousand during the
rush, but 1t will not be a permanent
thing. IL rains up here almost every
day. whiskey is 25 cents per drink.
Goods In the stores are sold at very
reasonable rates. Whiskey is high be-
cause 1t Is all smuggled in.

I now know will write you again /
don't know what will do, ] may go
home or | may stop awhile. With kind
regards. Your sincere friend,
