NArURAl SHOE POLISH.
Orange Juic. aud Banaba Skin Excellent
Dressings for Leather.

From the Baltimore American.
Orange Juice is one Of the best dress
ings for black shoes or boots. Take a
slice or quarter Of an range and rub
IT on the shoe or boot. Then. when
dry. brush with a soft brush until the
shoe shine like a looking glass. This is
an English recipe. Another fruit dress
ing is for tan shoes. the inside OF a ba-
mana skin. Rub the skin over the shoe
thoroughly. wipe on carefully with a
soft cloth briskly. Patent leather shoes
should not be polished with backing.
These are the hardest kind OF shoes to
keep looking well and require constant
care. They nay be cleaned with a
damp sponge. and Immediately dried
with a soft cloth. with occasionally a
little vaseline or sweet oil. They must
never be donned In cold weather without
heating. or they will crack as soon as
exposed To the cold air.

camned at the head of the Klutina river
or Camp Portland. Thence some OF our
party went with some New York people
to the Copper. thirty miles away. The
KIutina is thirty miles long, twenty live
of which are rapids and dangerous. Lots
of persons have lost their lives and outnts
on these rapids.
"There is fine float gold and some hour
gold, so-called, along the klutlna ana
Copper rivers. and strange to say, on the
bluffs 500 feet above the water. Al1er 60
ing six feet, all Indications OF gold were
lost and this proved the same up TO tne
head waters of the Copper. Our party
came back and we then made up our
minds that there was nothing to do but
wait until the Copper should freeze over
and sled mp to Matasta pass and go over
to the head waters of the Tanana. and
thence over to the Tanana hills and across
into the Circle City district, sixty mile
run, or Birch Greek, forty mile run.
Forty mile rum the Indians say, white
men thick as mosquitoes In the winter
the days there are about four hours long,
SO am told, the rest being twilight. The
thermometer goes down to so to 10 de-
grees below zero with high winds, which
make it impossible to move, consequently
nothing can be done virtually until Feb
ruary. 1t was three hundred miles over
into this district, but having to double
up for the trip, it really means 1900 miles
of Shedding. 50 that the proposition was
very hard one to carry out.
"The Copper river district as a whole
is big fake. There are enough fine
particles of gold to mislead, and not
enough to min to pay, that is for placer
mining, and the whole country is nothing
but great glacial drift.
+. ewing, Fuller and Lothrop will spend
their winter in California. Hatch and
Stewart with two New York parties will
wait and try to sled up the Copper river
on ice and get into the Circle City dis
trict. Out of $500 who went in, there was
not. left when we came away over 125. and
the most of these were under contract for
two years to some company and under
salary. They all had good outfits and
plenty of provisions, but the question is
still an open one, will they get across?
81 think, if it had not been SO late IN
the season, the prospr course would have
been to come. out and gone in over the
Skagway trail and across the Chilkoot
pass. But after you get an outfit into the
Copper river district, it does not pay to!
try and get it out, for 1t costs more than
it is worth.
"We took nearly three months to get IN
and came out in six days, light. with
blankets and enough provisions to bring
us to the coast, and coming back through
the glaciers with cracks from four to ten
feet wide. through which person ought
to be mountain goat to successfully pass
especially with So pounds on his back.
In some instances our packs had to be
taken off and and thrown across the
tracks before we leaped the SINE.
"If people worked as hard at home as
they do in that country, they would
certainly have more gold at home than
they would find in Alaska"
