Map of the Kootenai.

The most complete and artistic map
of the rich mining region of the Koo-
tenai and adjacent territory in Wash
ington and British Columbia, has lust
been published by the Northern Pacific
railway. 1t is just what is needed by
those going to that country or who de-
sire to study and know about it.
The map is made in relief, is 25x18
inches in size between borders and has
in connection with ton the same
page-two smaller maps that show the
relation of the region to the world at
at large.
The principal drainage of the coun-
try is laid down in blue. the trails and
roads are shown, the railways plainly
indicated, the names of important
towns printed in large black letters.
and the topography is represented in
brown. AS far as the ore deposits are
known they are indicated in general
way by red lettering.
The country shown upon the map
includes particularly, the Slocan, Koo-
tenai lake, Cariboo creek, Deer Park,
Nelson, Salmon river, Trail or Rossland
and the Boundary creek regions. It
shows the Arrow lakes and the Lar
deau country and some portions of the
Okanogan region.
The map is compiled from reliable
and official data and shows the mining
district subdivisions and the eleva-
tions of the mountains and lakes.
The opposite of the sheet contains
an accurate statement and decription
of the country, showing its discovery
and development to the present time

The New Gold Fields of AlasIia-A
DreamIand of Wealth.

AS it is now too late for those who
contemplate going to the Yukon gold
fields of Alaska to start this year, a
company has already been organized
to start early next spring. A steamer
has been secured and the company
will leave Puget's sound early in
March, 1898, arriving at the mouth of
the Yukon in time to transferthe party
and supplies to river steamer and
be ready to go up the river as soon as
the ice breaks up. The company will
own its own steamer and thus be able
to go or stay when they like and be
able to land its party in the Klondyke
country far ahead of any other party.
Parties joining the parties and going
this way have many advantages and it
will not cost any more than to 60 via
the Dyea route and they save 500 miles
OF very rough overland travel.
Frank L. Champion, the we'll known
newspaper man of Mt. Vernon, Wash,
is at the head of the enterprise and
parties intending to go to the Yukon
gold fields in the spring should send
him ten cents, money or stamps, for
full particulars, maps, costs and nee.
essary supplies for one or two years
trip.

They were having the usual game Of
cards in the smoking apartment. The
travelling men swapped jokes, nailed lies
and told bigger ones. The stranger who
just sat in to fill out the game contrib
uted nothing but smiles and an occa.
sional general laugh to the social fea-
lures Of the occasion.
Every once i'll u while a jovial drum
mer would announce that he had some
poker in his hand, and an occasional
side bet was made under the rules of
the great American game.
Finally one of these challenges elicit
ed from the stranger an admission that
poker was about the only game of cards
of which he did not possess some knowl-
edge, but he had rather peculiar hand,
and because of the value it would have
in other games he would just take u
chance.
Bets We're rapidly made until there
was $3.50 i'll the pot, when II call was
made, AID the stranger awllwartlly ask
ed how many points his opponent had.
"We don't count points," was tho
answer, "but have four eights. rat!l-

ger, as he leaned back and moppcd his
brow. "Helc 1 am with high, jack,
game, big casino, an ace, a run of five
and fush," as he threw down the
ace, king, queen, jack and ten of dia-
monds II really Thought 1 had you
beat" and he showed the money toward
the paralyzcd. drummer.
In the midst of the roar that followed
ga royal hush!' was shouted by some
one, and the stranger was hilariously
assured that he had won. His surprised
face never gave away SO much us u
chrckle until he Was alone that night.

A Napoleon of Finance Meets His Waite,

loo In New Hampshire.
An itinerant corn doctor took possess
sion Of the public square in Charles
town, N. H., one evening and proceed
ed to transact business which was of
land office dimensions while it lasted.
But he closed up early.
Eggs We're flying at him from all di-
rections, and he was a sorry looking
sight when he reached the friendly shell
ter Of the hotel.
He had imposed upon the confidence
Of the unsophisticated, and the shower
of eggs was their way Of expressing
their righteous Indignation.
The "doctor's" modus operandi was
something like this: He had o corn
salve that was unequaled and unap-
proachable in its virtues. He wished to
advertise it and would for 10 cents give
q sample Of the salve and check, Oh
the presentation of which later he would
give present.
The "present' end Of it caught many
who were old enough to know better and
several children, but great was their
surprise when OH presenting their checks
they were handed Is cents as present.
This was making money very fast.
Each purchaser had realized 50per cent
on his investment. The doctor had ar
ticle No. to advertise and would also
give present to every purchaser who
would pay 90 cents for sample.
Those who had bought one package
Of No. took two and three Of article
No. Q and were given checks, as in the
previous instance. OF course they
thought this man who gave them IL
cents for 10 would certainly give them
at least 85 for %.
But he didn't.
He probably thought he had gone
the limit. and when the speculators
presented their checks they were given
q bit Of taffy candy by the smiling doc.
tor. who said, ~ told you would give
you a present. and have done 90, and
while he continued to give them the
laugh they began to gee the coke"
Several Of those on the outside of the
crowd got their heads together and then
went to q nearly provision store and in.
vested all the money they had in eggs,
and the less modern they were the more
desirable for their purpose.
When they returned, the voluble doc.
tor was telling his audience not to feel
bad over the matter. He had, he said,
travelled great deal and had ''got it in
the neck" himself and never complained.
Well, just then he got it in the neck,
and in the back, and on the head, and
in several other places. There was q
perfect shower Of eggs.
The Doctors smile vanished, and he
did not stand upon the order Of going.
