Back From Alaska.

Durkee Rogers, OF this city, who went
to Alaska last February, returned home
last Sunday. Mr.. Rogers did not go as
far as the Klondike. but he went to
Juneau, where he remained long enough
to gain all the information he desired
concerning the condition of affairs in
the Klondike region. 90,
II arrived at Juneau on the Sth of last
March," said Mr.. Rogers. II at once set
out to get situation, but found it very
difficult to do so. and finally, about two
months after my arrival, succeeded in
securing clerkship in the Franklin
Hotel. found the salary, like all other
salaries in this region, scarcely more
than half the wages paid in Minneapolis
for the same work. On the other hand,
had to pay 50 week for board that
would not cost over IS in Minneapolis.
The climate in Juneau is very healthy,
but the weather is disagreeable, as it
rains more or less all the while. espec-
tally in the summer. am told that
over Is feet of water falls annually in
Juneau. The winds are something ter
rifle. and they come very suddenly.
This, of course. makes navigation very
dangerous at this point"
Mr.. Rogers says that there is no
doubt but that Alaska will in good time
become fair mining country, but that
capital and nothing but capital can ever
make anything out OF that country in
the way of mining.
"The poor class of people flocking to
the gold regions of Alaska" continued
Mr.. Rogers, "are not only losing their
time and health at the risk of their lives,
but they are also injuring the country
with reports likely to discourage capital.
Of course these exaggerated reports
about the many discoveries of placer
mines. or the poor mans gold,' as it is
called. are simply fabrications gotten up
by the transportation companies to
boom their business"
During his sojourn in Juneau Mr.. Rog-
ers saw a number of Minneapolis men
at various times, among them Mr.. Hcf-
fin, of the Hofflin Drug Company, Mr..
Mandigo, of the Minneapolis Jewelry
Company; Mr.. Hines, commission mer-
chant; Mr. Matthews, a we'll known
plumber of South Minneapolis; Mr..
Gunsole. formerly of the Minneapolis
fire department. and others.
Mr.. Rogers said that Juneau is sub
stantial little business town of $3.50 in
habitants. 1t is supported chiefly by
the Treadwell and other gold mines, all
within a radius Of three miles of the
town. The Treadwell mine will have
nearly 1000 stamps in operation by the
first of the year.
Mr.. Rogers expects to return to Jun
eau next May, to accept an offer to go to
the Pine Creek district, about $50 miles
from Skaguay.

The Orphans Fair.

A very wise and important step has
been decided upon by the management
of this years Orphans Fair. Charita-
BILE as the ends for which the work may
be, it is not right that the means used
should be uncharitable to Others Paul
must not be robbed that Peter may be
paid, for that is poor justice indeed
While considering the welfare of the
orphans no harm must be allowed to
come to those who may take pleasure in
doing the good work, but who, by reason
of circumstances cannot protect them
selves. Little children, and especially
little girls, do not realize the dangers
which may befall them while
moving about in a large
city, and it is to protect them and
to allow no injury of any nature to be-
set them, that it has been decided by the
management to allow no little girls under
Is years of age to solicit for the fair.
1t is an injustice to them of such tender
age to be on the public streets, in public
places where all sorts and conditions of
people frequent, to be thrown in with
classes of humanity whose company can
do them no good, whose language is, to
put it mildly, tinctured with parts Of
speech a gentleman will not use, and
whose habits and pastimes are not the
most refined. Parents Outlines forget the
welfare of these young ones and allow
themselves to think their children can
relieve them of the trouble of assisting
in some charity by doing the unpleasant
part, such as soliciting. The relief is
only temporary, for the trouble comes
later on. It is only deferring today's
cares, to be borne on the morrow, with
an heavy accumulation of interest. For
these reasons strong measures are JUS
tifiable. Though resolution was pass
ed at the first meeting of the association,
held in October, that no little children
be given books, nor allowed to solicit,
little girls have been found in various
parts of the city on the crrands from
which this resolution was intended to
debar them. All the assistance that
can be given the association is needed,
but only that can be accepted which is
of grown up variety.
To enable the management to carry
out the resolution above referred to,
they desire to ask the cooperation of
all Catholics in the city. A plan has
been devised which will act as double
deterrent to the little girls, in that
many who would otherwise go out, will
not, fearing the embarrassing results,
and those who do brave the results will
be stopped.
If any Catholic, or other person, II
he will be so kind, will take away the
book which little girl under Is years
may present asking for contribution,
subscription or other thing for the Or
phans' Fair, and report the fact to the
secretary by telephone or other means
Of communication, the case will he
looked into, and favor will be done
to those who now request it. All books
which have been issued or which will
be issued, bear the impress Of the
Catholic Orphan Asylum seal, and are
signed by the officers of the association,
and numbered. and a record is kept Of
each book.
