A letter received from Dawson City,
under date of June 1S, contains MANY In
teresting facts. The writer. Arth ur
Perry, citizen of Seattle. says: Tho
discovery of gold on the Klondike was In
the middle of August 1895 by George
Cormack, on a creek emptying into tho
klondik, on the south, called the Indi-
ans Bonanza. The creek was soon
etaked from one end TO the other. and all
the small gulches were also staked and re-
corded.
About September 10 man named
Whipple prospccted creek emptying into
tho bonanza and named IL Whipple creek.
He soon afterward sold out and the
miners renamed it I'll Dorado
At present only minars' laws rule the
camp, but next year Dawson City will be

NOT TILL OCTOBER.
Episcopal Convention For the Elec-
tion of C0adjutor Bishop.

Hon. John ii. Stiness secretary OF the
standing committee of the Episcopal do
cess of Rhode Isand. says that in all prooa
ability IL will bs October before another
convention will be in session for the cleo
tion OF bishop oondjutor.
AS stated In The News the other day, a
special convention may pe called, either
by the bishop of his own yolition or by
tho bishop at the request OF the standing
committees. In that case, Bishop Clark
will let tho standing committee take the
initiative and there Is not quorum OF
that body in tho country. Chairman
Henshaw and four others are abroad ana
will not return until autumn.
In the meantime. the principal topic OF
conversation among Episcopalians,
especially In the smallers out or town
parishes, Is relative TO the election and its
probable result.
There will DO numerous candidates
when the time comes but as yet nothing
has been done In the way OF canvassing.
The one thing that may be anticipated
with certainty is that the bishop coad-
jutor will come from outside OF the do
cese.
Here are the names which Rev. Henry
Bassett of the Church of the Epiphany
thinks will be presented in nomination:
Rev. Charles III. Brent Of st. stephens
church, Boston.
Rev DIR. Parks of Calvary church, New
York.
Rev. DIR. Alexander II. Vinton Of All
Saints church. Worcester.
Rev. DIR. Kinsoiving of Brooklyn. Rev.
;. Is. Mcconnell, of Holy Trinity,
Brooklyn.
Rev. Emory H. Porter Of Trinity church,
Newport.
Rev. George Mcclellan FisKe OF st.
Stephens church, Providence
At the present time MIR. Bassett considers
that it is any mans place but thinks that
Rev. Charles III. Brent is the leading
candidate.

while we were on the steamer Alki,

men, Charles and George Wordep. lhey
were residents of Sackotfs Harbour, n. Y,
and had come West In search OF gold.
Their mother lives back in the old homo,

intimate with the Wordens. They knew
little, IL anything about the country, ana
one day in conversation one OF us sug-
gested that we form n company and do

The sovereign who makes use of his
crown most frequently is that most
simple, unaffected and democratic of all
monarchs Of Europe, King Oscar Of
Sweden, who dons 1t each time that he
opens parliament at Stockholm or at
Christiania
1t scarcely adds to his appearance,
for it comes down too far over his nose,
and somewhat gives one the impression
of derby hat worn on the back of the
head and pulled down over the ears.
Indeed it is only the kings majestic
stature and dignifed bearing that pre-
