On the Il. s. o. S. w. train which left
here at 1855 Wednesday afternoon was
a passenger with an unsigned mileage
book. Upon being requested to sign
the book by the conductor he did so
and left it lying on his seat while he
went to the water cooler When he re-
turned the book was gone and could
not be found. He told Conductor
Campbell of the loss and as that Of
fical went through the car a drummer
nodded his head meaningly toward a
couple of unknown men sitting in a
seat across the aisle. Conductor Camp
bell took the hint and taxed the men
with the theft with such good bluff
that one of them went down into his
pocket and produced the missing book.
The men left the train at Constitution.

The Washington Post, one of the
most conservative newspapers in the
United States, did most unusual thing
in devoting an editorial to the Wallace
circus, which came to Washington un-
known and went away With an estab-
lished reputation. In part the Post
said:
The Great Wallace Show represents
all that there is of Legitimate worth in
the circus business. 1t is in charge of
men who aspire to elevate the tone and
purify the atmosphere Of the calling,
and we believe the thousands who have
attended the performances during the
past two days will certify they have
succeeded Not only was the perform
ance up to the highest professional and
artistic standard, the menagerie large
and varied, and the trained animals OF
the best, but there was not in connec-
ton with the Wallace Show single
one of those discreditable and demoral-
izing features which have done so
much to give the circus a bad name
and to discourage the true friends of
that otherwise wholesome form OF
amusement. The managers of the
Wallace Show keep all their promises.
advertise nothing they do not expect
to give, and carefully divest their per-
formances of ANYTHING and everything
calculated to offend the incest taste.
we are sure that the verdict of Wash.
ington will be most favorable and that
the show can return to us sure of find
ing genuine admirers and friends"

FOOD Fon THE KLoNDIKERs.

The greatest field for enterprise In con-
nection with the Yukon gold fields will be
found in supplying food 20 the ice-bound
district through the winter. AS soon as
the Snow falls heavy enough to AFFORD an
even surface and the ice forms of suf-
ficient thickness in the lakes and rivers
10 bear sledges. provisions should be hur-
ried across the pass by means of sieds and
sent with all speed TO the points whence
food could be most promptly distributed.
All the miners who are getting short of
provisions will hasten in from the distant
creeks and gulohes TO such places as Daw-
son City. Forty-Mile City. and the mouths
OF the main rivers.
Prospectors whose experience entities
them to belief have given the assurance
not only that the journey can be made
without danger, but that much larger
quantity of freight can be transported over
the snow than over the bare ground.
There is no lack of money, so that it is
not work of charity. but the hazards of
a new enterprise may prevent that sys-
tematic effort which viii be necessary TO
insure the thousands of miners from the
chance OF starvation. This Is work
which should be conducted under the ii-
reetion OF a government officer, and
preferably one who is familiar with the
duties of the commissariat. It may be
true that the prospectors who have gone
up late In the season have been foolish in
mourning risks of danger with whose mag
nitude they were entirely unfamiliar. but
they are there and they are helpless.
Enough food has gone up to have pre-
vented suffering. but it is standing use
lessly In enormous pes at Skaguay and
along the pass. Men have gone up by the
thousand equipped with years pro-
visions. and even enough for year and a
half with economy. but they have dis
carded or sold part Of 1t because of the
imposstbllity OF taking It through the pass
Others have sold or abandoned their en-
tire grubstake and returned, and many
hundreds more viii probably do the same.
II that quantity of food could be sent into
the Northwest Territory where 1t Is so
urgently needed II would supply one-third
OF those already on the ground. Much
more can be sent in IL system OF trans
portatton is devised, and II can all be sold
At such prices as would repay the cost
and leave a very fair profit.
