Hand Ball.

Moore was unable to be on hand for
the hand ball game scheduled for yes
terday, and Fettas and Coon were pitt
ted. After sharp and interesting con-
test of four games, Fettas was declar.
ed the winner and will have a chance
in the semi-finals. Moore and Secretary
Coleman are yet to have their go for
position. A number of veteran hand
ball players from the States have drop
ped into the association rooms lately
and those who do not care to enter the
Tournament, are glad of chance for
little practice.

who first saw it in San Francisco and
afterwards at Chicago. The outfit COM
prises light pump, piece of hose and
a bucket of white wash. A cottage of
good size is covered without and with
in in a very few minutes. The device
is especially valuable in placing a pre-
servative mixture on roofs.

on board loo passengers and about ST.,
10000 in treasure. This was trans
ferred to the Healy and taken to St.
Michaels. A considerable amount of
this will arrive in San Francisco on the
Excelsior.
When asked why he returned, Leon
ard said:
''I found I had to get out or starve.
There are about 1000 men in Dawson
and not more than a third of them have
work. If you have not a stock of grub
you can't get work at any price. I had
provisions for three months, and no one
wanted me. [ had not enough to work
my own claim until spring. Jim Duns-
muir, the Eldorado king, has bad $780,
600 worth of provisions ordered for some
months, but has not been able to obtain
more than fifth of it, even with the
cash put up in advance"
Those coming out, however, did not
bring all of their clean-ups with them.
Leonard cites numerous instances of
men who had cleaned up from $50, 900 to
500 900, but had taken away barely a

nothing themselves except as wages at
SIS for month or go.
In regard to discoveries on Stewart
river, Rolston says that there were many
rumors of rich strikes, but up to the
time he had left Dawson nothing definite
had been received.
The National City made the trip in IL
days from St. Michaels, where she left
65 eager goldseekers.
1t is very doubtful whether any of the
passengers who went up on the National
City will get through this year. The
small boat which some of the passengers
had taken up on the deck of the steamer
has proved disappointment. Her ma
chinery has gone wrong. and she draws
too much water. There is enough pro-
visions in the party, however, to winter
1t out and proceed up the river when
spring opens.
The Cleveland was expected to sail on
the day after the National City's depart
ure. The Excelsior left st. Michaels
twelve hours before the National City.
Captain Anderson reports that on Aug
ust 2Sth he passed the steamer Hum
bofdt, but did not speak to ber, and that
she in all probability arrived at ST..
Michaels the following day.

Another Andree Pigeon.

NASHVILLE, Ills, Sept. S.-When Pro-
fessor Andree left in search of the north
pole it was not made public that arrange
ments had been made by William Os-
borne, business man of Coultervflle,
Ills, whereby he would be kept inform
ed as to the whereabouts of the explorer
by pigeons.
One of the birds sent with Andree has
returned to this place, almost two
months overdue. The bird carried a
ncte about its neck written on extra
heavy notepaper, but weather has OBJ
liberated the writing so it cannot be told
whether the expedition is a success or a
failure. The only word of the note not
completely rubbed out is Latitude
The pigeon has silver plate attached to
its left wing with "Andree, 81" stamp,
ed on it.
The next bird is due in few days.

A Fine School.

st. Mary's academy for ladies, located
in this city and under the direction of
the Sisters, is one of the best educational
institutions on the coast. The building
is of brick, large and well ventilated.
Besides the regular studies, especial eff
fort is made to instil into the minds of
the pupils desire to form their hearts
to virtue, and to fit them to be true and
noble women. Gratuitous lessons are
given in all kinds of plain and fancy
needle word, knitting, embroidery, etc.
Pupils will receive the same watchful
care that would be given them by con-
sclentious parents. 1t is in fact an ideal
shcool and pleasant home. Those who
have girls to send to school should write
to st. Mary's academy for terms. If.
