ON THE SNAGUAY TRAIL.
A Prescott Woman Portravs
 Some of Its Hardships.

In letter te the Journal Miner oi Prescott. under the date of S-pt. 9th, Mrs. Jo,iah Johndrew writes from skaguay Trail ga follows:
 "Herc we are, three mil-s on the famous Skagusy or White Psse trail, and no pen can picture the situation, 1 care not how famous be the writer.
 Last Monday there ", re fourteen hundrt d and three horses on the trail packing, and twice that number of men, and quite e number of women- on trail of forty miles in all. Every body was struggling-oh, struggling e hard 10 get through; and there were aim ct as many more turning back discouraged and broken down, who csuli not g, apother mile. A great many more will turn back be- fore they set te tn. summit. There is g most frightful slght all along the trail. You can see dead horses, and horses with broken legs, come of them, poor things, just left to one side of th- trail to live or die. There is no choice between the Dyes and SKA gusy trails. One is terrible and the ether is far worse. Yesterday they brought one man down on c strstch.r, wrapped in his rubber blsnk kets. cold in death. He had gotten over the pass with one load and came for an- other, when he gave up, just e1hsn,t ed. He could de no mere. His posr wife came on to return home alone, broken hearted. He was an e1-sheriE of Snshomish, Wash. His name was ! Van Buren.
 "One is constantly meeting with such scenes oa this trail, and how eft-n We hear them trying to hum "Oh miner, poor niner." but it is not the miners only. We have met 60 many correspondents and lawyers, doctors, bank cashir- and boys just out Of their ia h-r-' offices.
 "It is not questi Of courage CT bravery, but . question Of endurance. Can we rtsnd the hardships one mus endure 10 go over those trails, with siu-h and mud or roots and mo 5, One cannot possibly picture i, uples- he sees it. One mus, climb, from the time you start, up and down. We are here and our party has seven horses. I've Jerome boys are here with us. We will keep moviug on unless forced to st0p. God only knows we will succeed. We have solved one questiJn-thst is, that the only way to reach the klondyke is to take boat, and go in the spring direct to your destination, unless one takes chance sf life and death.
 "Skaguay is a town ot about 500, and on the trail there are abou. the same number as at Skagusy. They are building some fine hotels and bus ness houses in the town. It i- very quiet considering that they have more than one whiskey street, and the people are all very hospirabls and kind, but you may go on Q street in the morning and the next morning you will not think it is the same place as they are building ss much at night oy lanterns as in the day time. One will hear as many hammers going all night ns in the day time. Wages are from 5 to s7 per day and board. We are hoping that when we reach Daw- son City we may find some Presco , papers and . number of letters from Prescott friends waiting for us. an. writing on 6 box, and not A very good box either, and ask you to please can. col tf,-lo,.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 18TH
life'ess body of D. T. Watson, a col
ored school teacher, was found hang
ing to tree in Hamilton township.
Lonoke county, twenty miles from
here, this morning, with this placard
pinned on il: "a warning to mig
ger school teachers. We want none
of this kind of people in this coun
try; others beware"
Watson was taken out an l severe
ly whipped by whitecappers while
engaged in conducting a colored
normal at Lonoke last June. and the
inference is that the same parties
who assailed him then had hand in
his final disposal last night. H.
lived in Hamilton township, and had
been teaching school there the last
three months. He had good rep
utation among all who knew him,
and IS said to have been one of the
ab,est colored men in that section OF
the State.
