partly cooked and eaten. For two days
the siwashes refused to bulge with their
packs. and lay around in the shade feast

Cariboo and mountain sheep are quito
plentiful In the back hills few miles dis
tant. The packers coming into camp to-
day report that near Crater lake last
night and this morning a herd OF eleven
wild sheep was seen quietly grazing on the
mountain slopes Several Indian hunters
started out in pursuit Of the game this
afternoon.
A good many grouse are found IN the
timber near the lakes and though smaller
they are much daintier and more tooth
some than their feathered cousins IN the
south.
The streams and lakes are full OF fine
gamy Arctic trout, which are species
Of land-locked salmon. Another pala.-
able fish IL what is called white f1sh'' the
flesh OF which when dressed Is red, but
when cooked turns to clear white.
Up the canyon from Dyea and along the

and the Indians and old miners tell me
that occasionally trees heavily laden with
fIneIy favored honey are found. The bees
get most OF their honey from pretty little
blue coiored flowers that are fragrant with
sweetness and grow in abundance along
districts and on the mountain sides an
abundance Of wild huckleberries are
found.
