of the vitascope show at klos

However, 1t was such an au-

not have been but pleased.
The graphophone and the harp,
the latter under the skillful
handling of Pedro Lapitini,
filed in the intermissions with
music of a pleasing kind.
The vitascope and scenes
were remarkably clear and true
to life. Everyone brought forth
a storm of applause, and it
would be as difficult to say
which of them pleased most as
to say what may yet be accom-
Dlished in the realm of science.

What it Costs to Go to the Yukon

Miners who have returned from
the Clondyke mines, Alaska, say
that parties intending to visit the
camp should provide themselves
with the following articles:
Bacon, 900 pounds; -Four, 800
pounds; assorted dried fruit, $50
pounds; corn meal, 200 pounds,
rice, so pounds; coffee (parchedl, Is

en- socks, half dozen woolen mits,
three pairs woolen gloves, three
suits heavy underwear, two suits
mackinaw, two hats, four heavy
woolen shirts, one heavy coat, three
pairs heavy woolen blankets.
The outfit will cost about $175.
Transportation via steamer to Clon-
dyke $3.50; or via Juneau and Dyea.
$40. If by the latter route the car
riage from salt water to Lake Lin
derman, distance of thirty
miles, say for one and half tons al
Is cents per pound, would be $3.50
boat at Linderman, $50; miscellane.
Gus, $25; total, $3.50. Conservative
ly that is fair estimate of the re-
quirements of a man who expects to
remain in the Youkon eighteer
months. There are several othel
incidental expenses which might bt
incurred, or the amount of supplies
might be curtailed to aslight extent
These estimates were given by ex
perienced miners who have wintereC
n the north and know what the.
are talking about. In making
purchases it is we'll to observe tn
suggestion that the very very bes
articles that can be purchased ar
none too good and will more tha
repay the purchaser in the Ion
run.

The CIondyke Country

DR.. William H. Dali, one of the
curators of the national museum at
Washington, is familiar with the
region of country in which the Clon-
dyke gold fields are located, through
having been on several geological ex-
peditions in the region in Alaska
joining the gold district, and says
that in his opinion the reports from
the country probably are not exag-
gerated. He said: when l was
there 1 did not find gold but know of
it being taken out in profitable
quantities for fifteen years or more.
"The yellow metal is not found in
paying quantities in the main river,
but in the small streams which cut
through the mountains on either side.
These practically wash out the gold.
In most cases the gold lies at the bot
tom of thick gravel deposits. The
gold is covered by frozen gravel in
the winter At the approach of
winter, in order to get at the gold,
the miners fndit necessary to dig in
the gravel formation.
81 see many reasons why the gold
field should be particularly harl to
reach. 1t is "a country in which it is
very hard to find food, as there is
practically no game. Before the
whites went into the region there
were not more than 300 natives.
They have hard work to support
themselves on account of the scarcity
of game.

Why Cattlemen Are Jealous.

In an address delivered before the
Utah Wool Growers Association at
Salt Lake City last week one of the
speakers got off the following which
set the sheepmen roaring with
laughter.
ut has always seemed to me that
shepherds and the tender of focks
were of special favor in Gods eyes.
When the light burst upon the cradle
where lay the babe in Bethlehem,
who was to save the world and re-
deem mankind, his birth was an
nounced first, not to the money
changers, not to the merchants be-
hind the counters, but to the lonely
shepherds out on the star lit plains
and they were led to gaze upon the
followed face of the redeemer of the
children of men. The cattlemen were
told nothing about it and ever since
they have been mad at, and jealous
of, the sheepmen.

What the effect of the gold dis
eoyeries in Alaska will be on silver,
should the Alaska output reach the
.Npectations of some, is a question
much discussed. President F..
Bepiamin Andrews of Brown Uni
yersity, who is pronounced silver
man. and who has just made tour
of Europe, where he studied the
financial question carefully. says of
Il ..instead OF there being a danger
that the price of silver will go down,
there is more likelihood it will go
1p, in relation to the price of gold
and will be retired from circulation
on account of its greater value. If
these reports of the finding of gold
~ Alasks are all that Ii ) now APP
pear to be, this may occur. The
natural value of silver as compared
~ cold is about 15 or 16 to /, be-
cause that is about the proportion
in which the two metals are mined.
Bat the amount of silver taken out
Of the mines, in proportion to the
amount of gold, is steadily growing
less so that silver is theoretically,
and should be actually increasing
in value, and all that stamps in the
way of that increase is Legislation,
nothing but legislation.

coREAN PAPER.
II Is Better Than That of China or
Japan.

The statement is made by a writer
in the Apotheker Zeitung that re-
rlarllable kind of paper is produced in
Corea entirely by manual labor and
without the use of machinery. Its quail
ity excels that OF the very best made
in China or Japan. The raw material
used for this paper is obtained from
the bark of Broussonetia papyrifera,
which is collected in the spring and
beaten in water containing a large ad-
mixture of wood ashes, until reduced to
thick pulp; this is taken in large ladies'
and spread upon frames of bamboo,
and in this way formed into thin sheets.
Another kind of paper is produced
from old scraps trodden into pulp,
much in the same way that grape juice
is expressed in some countries-a pro-
cess of pulping which, though slow, has
the advantage of not breaking the fiber
so much as when machinery is used
then, after the pulp has been made into
paper, the sheets are piled up to the
height of six feet and cut into pieces
to be again subjected TO the feet stamp
ing-at the same time the roots and
seeds of the plant called "tackpoui' arr

Stand on Your Own Bottom

The Gold Greek News comes back
at the State papers who have been
commenting on the lack of bullion
shipments from there. Briefly stat
ed it says" Mind your own bust
ness. = We are pleased TO have the
News say that Gold Greek is all
right, as we believe it is. Perhaps
too much has been said about the
preliminary work and too much
stress laid on the improvements,
buildings erected, ETC., but much of
this may be attributed to local pride
So far the only justification for be
lieving in the greatness of the dis
triet is the confidence exhibited by
those who are putting their money
into the town. The test of their
Judgment will be the opening up
of the quartz mines, until which
time the management is certainly
entitled to the benefit of all doubts
as to the merits they claim the
country possesses. They are spend
ing their own money and asking
odds of none. However, we do
object to Tuscarora being hitched
on as a back-action to Gold Greek,
and would prefer to paddle our
own canoe" until developments
would justify us in allying our
selves with the fate of any other
district, as we are a center for a
considerable area ourselves. We
have shipped over $4,000 in gold
in the past four months and are not
saying much about it, but don't
wish any other district to steal our
thunder, and say, with the fly on

a MISTAKEN NOTION.
Subscriptions Essentially Necessary to
tbs Conduct OF ANY News
journal

An idea that seems TO have wide
prevalence in this western country
is that papers can be produced with
out the payment of subscriptions.
Merchants and others usually paw
for advertising without murmur but
it is an act of bravery, almost of
hardihood for the editor to send a
bill for subscription. Theoretically
of course, subscription is supposed to
be paid in advance, but we have long
ceased to expect this in real life, and
only when the exigencSs of the
situation become imperative do, We.
go over the subscription books. If
through force of habit, we send a
man a bill for part of the year in ad-
vance the next mail usually brings
us a request for his bill "to date and
"please discontinue my paper. An
other man of class all too numerous
has taken the paper a dozen years,
has had his address changed twice u
year, when asked to "please remit"
writes to say that he is surprised to
receive such a bill: that he only sub
scribed for six months and if the
paper was sent after that it was no
affair of his sure. Not a few wait
eight or ten years and then pay up
like gentlemen, no doubt thinking
they are doing the paper a great fa-
vor, when in cold fact, they are keep
ing the editor on diet of toast and
tea and making him pay one per
cent, per month interest. No doubt
all these little vecissitudes are in
tended to wean the newspaper man
from too great a love for the good
things of this world, and fix his
thoughts on the better land where
no delinquent su scriber is permit
ted to enter, but all theisame is some
times deucedly inconvenient.-Reno
