Dawson must go over the bridge.
The trail on the LOuisetoWn side is
much better to the creeks, and the
bridge is greatly used by the miners
1t is a single span suspension affair,
and once was nearly washed away.
Roberts will return to Dawson shortly.
Just before leaving he reduced the tolls
to % cents. His bridge is the only

BURN TANNER IN EFFIGY.
Soldiers of the Second Illinois Show
Scorn for the Governor.

Jacksonville, Fla, Sept 13.-Excite-
ment was caused in the Second Illinois
camp by the burning in effigy of Cover
nor Tanner In preparing to remove a
lot of debris was burned. While the
fires were blazing the men erected an
imprOvised scaffold 20 feet high and,
dressing dummy in uniform to repre-
sent Governor Tanner, placed it upon
the scaffold. After a few remarks by
some of the men the figure was burned
Just before the fire was set a private
jumped up on the stand and cut the
buttons from the uniform.
Tanners name was jeered and hooted
at. A great deal of i'll feeling has ex-
listed among the men of this regiment
against the chief executive of their
state for alleged i'll treatment received
by them while in camp at Springfield.
The officers are very reticent about the
affair.
The main cause of this i'll feeling
against Governor Tanner by the pri-
Yates is because he recommended the
payment of the officers salaries while
they were in the service of the state,
but drew the line at the privates.

FORTUNE FOR SAMPSON.
He Will Get 100000 Prize Money
to Dewey's $4,000.

Washington, Sept. 13.-Rear Admiral
Sampson will receive as prize money
and bounty about 100000
Rear Admiral Dewey will receive
about $4,000.
Rear Admiral Schley's share will be
about $1,000 less than that of some of
the captains in the navy who were cap
turing prizes while Schley was bottled
up" in Hampton Roads at the begin
ming of the war.
The seamen including the 'nen be-
hind the guns will get from $50 to 5000
or $500, according to their pay and the
number of prizes captured by their re-
SpectiVe ships.
The law provides that prize money
shall be paid for every vessel, whether
WarShip or merchantmen, that is cap
tured, and that bounty shall be paid
wherever a vessel is destroyed. If the
ship captured is larger than the captOr
the law gives the entire net proceeds of
the prize to the captOr. If it is smaller,
One-ha1f to the captor and one-haIf to
the United States. The captorS are en-
the destroyed ship at the time of the
action. If the number aboard cannot
be accurately got at, it is assumed that
there were as many aboard as there
would be on a similar ship of the Uni
ted States navy.
In dividing prize money and bounties
the commanding officer of the fleet gets
One-tW6ntieth of the whole sum. The
commander of a squadron, under the
commandment chief, gets one-fortieth.
Commanders of ships that make cap
lures get one-fifth of the sum awarded
their ships.
The rest of the money is divided
among officers and men according to
their pay.
The three great profitable items in
this war were the battle of Manila, the
battle of Santiago and the Cuban
blockade. OF these the Cuban block
ade was far and away the most profit

There was a mad rush to creeks in
every direction by the new corners that
they might spot claims on which the
required work has not been done"
Two large Canadian Pacific steamers
have been put on as far as White Horse
Rapids. These boats, the Columbian
and Canadian, will bring out immense
crowds of people during the next two
months.
There have been several large high
way robberies on the creeks lately and
considerable trouble is looked for in
that way this winter. The police have
been unable to make any arrests.

Finance COMMITTEE Peace jubilee.
The plans for the decorations admit of
selection, but in general provide for the
decoration of all streets traversed by the
parade. Three great ARCHES will be erect
ed-a peace arch. a military arch and a
cereal arch. The position of one of the
arches will be at the beginning of the line
of march and that Of another at the end.
The cereal arch will be erected cross Jack
son boulevard in front of the board of
trade building. The structures will be
substantially built and with statues, pic
lures of army and navy heroes, and en-
blematic decorations.
1t is intended to limit the marching bod
les almost exclusively to military organ
izations. Chief Marshal Joseph Stockton
will recommend to the committee that the
line of march be, as far as practicable,
that of the sound money parade in 1896.
This route said General Stockton.
will aid in preventing congestion in any
one thoroughfare. 1t will be remembered
that the Grant parade was compelled to
disband by the great surge of people at
State and Madison streets without passing
the reviewing stand"
1t has not been decided whether Presi-
dent Mckinley will review the parade
from the Union League club or whether
the distinguished guests shall form a part
of it and be themselves view ed in carriages.
