CONTINENTS HIGHEST POINT.
1t Is Mount WrangeI, in Alaska, the
Crater of an Active Volcano.
G,
San Francisco Call.

Il
No white man has ever set foot upon the
apex of the North American continent. That
nigh pOiEt is the crater of an active vol
cano, the biggest on our continent, and it
all belongs to Uncle sam There is point
IN Alaska where primeVal nature, gathering
together all of its titanic energies, piled
masses, surmounting the whole with giant
volcano rObed in snow from base to sum-
NIT and from whose ice-rimmed nostris
an inferno beneath.
Mount Wrangel is the name applied to
the volcano. 1t was so named by the early
Russians in honor of Baron Wrangel at
the time Governor of the territory by ap-
pointment of the Gar. 1t is not a matter
of record as to whether or not the baron
ever caught glimpse OF his towering name
sake, although the flaming summit can be
seen for one hundred miles across the
tempest tossed region. 1t Is known, how
man has ever ascended the peak or even
placed foot upon its base. 1t remains for
some daring explorer who is willing to take
his life in his hands to push boldly over the
encirCling mountain ridges and attempt the
ascent Should he succeed he Will accom-
pllSh notable mountaineering feat and
Will. no doubt be able to add much to
geographical knowledge.
The Mount Wrangei region is to-day one
OF the few on the North American CONT
nent that has defed Intrusion. To add TO
Its specific interest, the native inhabitants
Of Central Alaska fear to approach the To-
CaHty, having. for some reason, myS~
FERROUS dread of fire mountain" as they
term it.
There is not an Indian TO be found within
fifty miles Of Mount Wrangel Not one
Will approach it any Closer
More interesting still is the fact that
Indian tradition. or more properly speak
ing, wandering reports, state that III the
secluded region around Mount Wrangei
gigantic animals with curved white. tusks
roam through the dark forests. Every In
dian will tell you this story ana warn you
away from the locality saving that it is
no good and that you VIII surely Perish
II you attempt TO enter.
1t should be stated here that Mount
Wrangel is located near the head of Copper
river. from which point of vantage it can
be seen about forty miles to the eastward.
rising uD behind successive ridges OF lofty
mountains Apparently it is not practicable
TO approach the volcano from this direction.
During the present summer hundreds Of
gold seekers pushing up the Copper river
have. no doubt. sighted the peak an I have
marveled at its altitude. Still, it seems
highly improbable that any one of them has
had the femerity to attempt TO cross the
Intervening mountains and Try TO make an
ascent without Ice axes and other proper
climbing equipment The scaling 5f the
Matterhorn in Europe is undoubtedly an
easier undertaking than the scaling Of
Mount Wrangel.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
A Week of Satisfactory Trade and
Steady Prices Ruling.

The common remark the wholesale streets is
that trade is very good. Dry goods houses, boot
and shoe and hat and cap merchants are
doing more than at the corresponding period last
year, and the business of the wholesale grocery
houses and of confectioners is at high tide Not
in years have the iron and hardware stores done
as good business as is now in progress. Commits
sion merchants speak of business much more
satisfactory than few weeks ago, the receipts
of fruits and vegetables and other articles not
being so largely in excess Of the demand, and bet
ter prices be obtained than in the early fall.
Produce merchants are having a, good trade Eggs,
poultry and butter all firm at the revised
quotations The provision market is more active.
Seed and hide markets dull and prices easy.
The leather and flour markets are active and
The local grain market is more active. Re
