NEW YORK.
A Large Part of Its Territory Is Under

While the enthusiastic manipulation of fig

manufacturing and financial prominence Oh
Greater New York, he has forgotten the
singular fact that it is the greatest agr1cul-
tural city under one government on the
globe. The larger part of its territory IS
under cultivation to-day. ichmo and
Queens counties are almost wholly farm
lands, with more acreage tndn all the other
boroughs put together The agricultural

The public library in Bryant Park, the

and the public baths which are under way
are merely the beginning of colossal under
takings in this and other directions for the
comfort, convenience and instruction of it's
citizens. Parks and recreation piers are to
be increased in number, and magnificent
drives are planned. The ocean beach of
the new city will afford opportunity for the
laying out of waterfront parks which in
accessibility healthfulness and popularity
will not be equaled in the wide world.
Including the underground rapid transit
road as planned, and not taking into ac-
count the cost of its probable extensions,
the expenditure will be nearly two hundred
millions of dollars. This sum does not in
clude the cost of the ordinary city's work,
such as street extensions, paving and the
like.

Precedent is more powerful than bacteria.

public place. Meat juices are. as far as has

of interest in small personal matters. stand

part of 1t is not to be questioned, and it is

ORIGIN OF THE PLACERS
MOTHER GOLD LODE FOUND IN THE
KLONDIKE DISTRICT.
Samples of Quartz Brought Back by
Men Who Left Dawson City Dec. o
millions in Dust and Nuggets.

SEATTLE, Wash, Jan. 1.-THE steamer
City of Topeka. from Juneau, Alaska, has
among her passengers nine men who left
Dawson City Dec. 8. They were w. j.
Jones, Port Townsend, Wash; d. d. Stew
art, Juneau, Alaska; A. A. Soldier, Nova
Scotia; F. c. Arnold, San Francisco; w. G.
Stenger, Colville, Wash; Harry Miller, Col
vile, Wash; j. Cordroy, Denver; George
Anderson, Tacoma, and Robert Johnson,
Tacoma. They were t~wenty-four days COM
ing from Dawson to the coast. Their jour-
ney was unattended by special incident. The
coolest weather recorded was eighteen be-
low zero. The party brought out with them
$50,O 900 in gold dust and drafts. Dog teams
were used in making the trip. The party
brings no new features in reference to the
food situation at Dawson. They agreed that
food is scarce, but there is no danger of
starvation. In reference to the proposed
government relief expedition all agree that
while it is not needed to avert actual want,
it would be welcomed nevertheless.
w. J. Jones reports the discovery Of what
is supposed to be the mother lode and
quartz origin of the placers of the Klondike
district. The discovery was made within
four hours at four different points, one of
them at the Dome, a high mountain at the
source of the Eldorado creek, by Frank
Slavin; the second at No. 81 Eldorado, by
A. H. Jose and partner; the third in Nugget
gulch, at No. Sc, and the fourth somewhere
in the tWenties on Bonanza creek. The trend
of the vein is northwest by west, westerly
from the Dome. 1t is found at about thirty
feet below the surface, and under the muck
and alluvian deposit. The ledge is about
eighteen inches wide, and makes a uniform
width. 1t is generously sprinkled with free
gold. Mr.. Jones brings down samples OF the
ore. and everyone VINO has seen them say
the rock is precisely the same in character
as is found in the Comet mine at Beners
way, southeast Alaska. Mr.. Jones said that
old-time miners in the klondike had made
a similar observation.
Mr.. Jones says the output of gold in the
spring will be from fifteen to twenty-five
million. This opinion is concurred IL by the
TRANSPORTATION company managers. rive
millions of dust is now stored in Dawson,
three millions of which would have come
out this fall had the boat reached Dawson.
The Topeka had several passengers who
were returning from unsuccessful efforts 10

1t is definitely announced by A. G. Bratt-
nober that the Rothschilds will build a rail-
road into the Yukon country over the Dal-
ton trail. His brother, Henry Brattnober,
of San Francisco, who is the Rothschilds'
Western representative, has the enterprise
in charge. The railroad will be about four
hundred miles long. The cost OF construc-
ton and equipment is estimated at $S,OVO,WO.

out in a hurry. and it's dollars to cents
that few of the hobo tribe will go against
that understanding regulation during the
rest of the season.
1T strikes me that the idea is a happy
one, and that if adopted In big cities like
Washington il would do much TO discourage
the shiftless vagabonds who tramp in from
the north when frost comes. For the
genuine unfortunate my pity is always on
tap, but for a professional hobo all SYM
pathetic feeling is withered."

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia telegram was
received by Adjutant General Breck to-day
from General Merriam, commanding the
Department of the Columbia, at Vancouver
barracks, that may have some effect on the
policy Of the War Department in extending
relief to the miners in the Klondike. The
general reports that the passengers on the
two steamers which have recently arrived
from Alaska all state that there is no dearth
of food at Dawson, and that the miners
will get through the winter in safety.

Hats or, in Boston Tbeaters.

BOSTON, Jan. 11.-Though the city ordi-
nance requiring women to remove their hats
in theaters has been in force some months,
and has been quite generally observed, the
literal enforcement Of it was begun to-day.
The theater managers had almost no trou-
bic in inducing every woman to take off her
hat, and so well known was the fact that
all would be required to do so or leave the
theater that few women had to be asked to
obey the law. TIL ushers quietly handed
cards to those women whose hats were not
at once removed, politely asking
them to take them off. # this
did not have the desired effect a
Second card politely but plainly told the
women that If they would call at the box
Office their money would be promptly re-
funded. One woman's male escort undertook
to make a fuss about this second card
handed to her, when the head usher inter-
rupted and told him his money also was
waiting for him at the box office and that
there was a big policeman outside specially
instructed to see the city ordinance en-
forced. The woman and the escort took
their money. Theater managers unite in
approving the ordinance and will strictly en-
force it hereafter.
