NECESSARY SUPPLIES
WHAT rs NEEDED IN THE KLON-
DYKE BY MINERS
Hints as to Food and the Cost Of
Going by One Who Has Made
Fortune There

"As the finding of gold in the Klon-
dyke district is not without it's dangers
and discomforts, 50 the possession Of
portion of that gold here in civilization
has been the source of great deal of
worry to me-" said Mr. Clements, after
relating his experiences in the north
"Since my return 1 have had hardly an
hour which I could call my own. On
every hand have been stopped by eager
ouestioners, almost held up for informa-
ton, and hope the publication of what
Iahave told you will give me some peace.
The questions most frequently asked
are what outfit is necessary and what
will such trip cost? I know these are
natural questions, but to answer them
Is not SO easy will try to give you, in
a general way, list of just what man
needs; but, let me say, the equipment
depends not only on the size of mans
purse, but upon the man himself. 1t
were better to go into that country with
ten times as much food as is needed
and little money than to take small
supply of food and plenty of money, for
once there. money will not always buy
food, The matter of clothing is not of
so great importance as that of food, for
clothing can be obtained with compara-
tive ease--that is, clothing such as will
keep out the cold.
"Every man who starts should take
enough food to last him year at least
Twice that much would be so much the
better, for food can always be disposed
of there. Another point to be considered
IS the selection of such food as will no
spoil for a long time. The cold, o,
course, acts as preservative, but it will
not keep all kinds of eatables. Coco
coarse food that nourisbes is the kint
needed, and, as 1 have before stated
that climate gives man an enormous
appetite. If a man is going to stay, sa,
eighteen monthe, the following would
answer his purpose. 1t can be varied
to suit the taste:
PROVISIONS
Bacon, 200 pounds.
Flour, 800 to 1000 pounds.
Corn meal, 200 pounds.
Rice, so pounds.
Coffee, parched, 70 pounds.
Assorted dried fruits. 200 pounds.
Tea, 40 pounds.
Sugar, 100 pounds.
Beans. 200 pounds.
Evaporated vegetables, any 1arg
amount.
Milk (condensed), or 2 cases.
This list can be changed to suit tn
person taking it, my purpose in givin
1t being simply to give some idea of tn
quantity. AS to equipment and cloth
ing, those, too, depend upon the person

Mysticism a Symptom of Decay

Mysticism is one of the most curious,
but also one of the most steadily recur-
rent phases Of thought and belief. AL
| ways it makes appearance at the end of
| great intellectual period, when thought
has grown weary, andts in love with i'm
ages rather than logic. You do not
find mysticism when art was at its best
in Athens. nor yet when Philosophy was
at Its best in the Greek schools. The high
est art demands clear and definite ex-
preston, and therefore rejects the in
trusion Of symbols Nevertheless mys-
ticism invaded the Greek schools when
the Hellenic spirit had run its course,
and when the breakdown of the Hellenic
state system forced every man to be
solitary and self-dependent thinker.
Aristotle did we'll enough for the keen
witted Athenians; but Plotinus was the
natural creation of Alexandria. The
same phenomena are repeated much
later toward the close of the eighteenth
century in Germany; and once again
they reappear as the nineteenth century
is drawing to it's close amidst spiritual
tSpty ,shQst-hunt5ng- the Psvchicai So
thaumaturgy. But the one thing that
history seems to prove is that mysticism
is not the strength, but the failure, of
human thought. AS long as man can
have recourse to images and symbols.
Nor yet can it be said that the mystical
spirit is ever congenial to plastic and
pictorial art or to theatrical representa-
tion.-W. L. Courtney.

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE
Showing What Shotgun Can Do in
a Load of Hay

"What was the most exciting expe-
rience I ever had?" repeated Clarence
Haight at the Olympic Gun club. Il
think it occurred last summer, when I
was hunting doves up in Sonoma county.
Now, shooting doves is not particularly
exciting or perilous, but this was one
of the hottest experiences ever had.
st had been travelling all day with a
big bag, and was pretty well tired out
when 1 struck the country road and
started for home. 1t was good four
miles walk, and I was pretty well
pleased to see a big wagon load Of hay
approaching. The rancher gave me
permission to ride, so scrambled up on
top, lay down on the sweet, new mown
hay and went swaying and swinging
down the road. I was just doing off
when bang! went my shotgun. / had
forgotten to take the cartridges out of
it, and something had pressed the trig-
ger. The horses gave jump and the
driver rolled off into the ditch.
"Then l discovered that my gun had
set fire to the hay land thought 1t was
about time for me to escape. The horses
went tearing along the road as hard as
they could run, but clambered for the
side of the load and slid for the road
| The tail of my stout hunting coat caught
on the top Of a sharp standard, and
there hung to the careening wagon
that threatened to upset and dump a
| load of burning hay on me at every turn
of the road.
1.-THE fire was cracking and burning
fiercely, and already 1 could see the
flames. Still the horses ran, and still
my coat held me fast to that seethins
mass of flames. My trousers commenced
getting hot, and then I found that m!
coat was on fire. The next moment tn,
loose cartridges in my pocket commences
exploding from the heat, and then
smelled my doves broiling.
81 had just made up my mind that al
was over, when the tail of my Goa
burned off and I was thrown into
ditch full of water beside the road
did not stop to see what became of tn
hay and the horses, nor of the ranchel
but cut straight across the field fo
home. That, gentlemen, was the mos
thrilling experience of my life."-Nev
York Sun.
