ANOTHER MAN WHO
FAILED ON THE STICKEEN
william ID. Sprunt Says He Has Seen
strong Men Weep who Failed
70 Get ThrOugh.

William D. Sprunt. of Baker City, Or.
is among the guests of the Hotel North
ern. He has just returned from Fort
Wrangel after Having made an unsuccess-
full attempt TO reach the Klondike by the
Stickeen route. To a eliigencer
reporter Mr. Sprunt said:
II have been engaged In the mining
business since l was boy, and have been
in many countries where II was difficult
to travel, but the St:ckeen route is the
hardest proposition l ever encountered.
This route Is a failure in every sense
that the word applies. and has brought
misery to the hearts of many men who
pinned faith in the representations made
by the Canadian people. l actually be-
Heve that there are 1000 men at Telegraph

large number Of them are stranded. and
as a matter OF fact have no way of secmr-
ing any money. They were obliged 10 pay
heavily for transporting their freight, and
when they arrived at the head of Lake
Tesin they were bankrupt
II have seen strong and husky men

ing lost their outfits and spent all their
money in trying to reach the klond.ke.
L have witnessed many ptiable scenes.
representations made by the Canadians
regarding the Stickeen route"
Mr. Sprunt, after leaving Wrangel. took
his time in making the trip TO Seattle, and
on the way ne explored and prospected
on Mary island. In speaking of his
experience on the island Mr.. Sprunt said:
at was successful in finding what be-
Eeve 10 be valuable mineral property on
Mary island. and assayers who have
examined the specimens I brought to Sc
attic say that 1 hava discovered another
Klordike. The ore shows up very rich.
and it is my intention to induce capital

property ! do not believe that all of the
gold IN Alaska is confined to the Kiondike.
but on the other hand. | believe that rich
discoveries will be made nearer 10 Seattle
before a great lapse of time.
Many of the men who failed to reach
the Klon6ike by the Siickeen route are
now engaged in prospecting in other parts
that they will be successful n finding
geld
Mr.. Sprunt also said that many men
who failed TO make a strike in Alaska
have announced their intention Of return
ing 10 Washington fer the purpose Of
prospecting in the Mount Baker mining
district
Mount Baker. Mr.. Sprunt says, Is much
talked Of by old mining men. and he be-
lieves tina, there will be- a stampede to

anv consequence is made. Mr.. Sprunt VIII
leave in a few days on a business trip 10

The steamers were put on the beach
for thorough overhauling after their long
ocean voyage. They arrived IN much bet
ter condition than was expected and con-
siderable money changed hands at st.
daring scheme.
One Meal q Day.
On the steamer Progreso the passengers
were being fed but once day according
to Capt. p. c. Rickmers of the Conemaugh
Capt Gilboy had succeeded in getting some
of his passengers ashore only to have them
sent back by the military commander He
was in as had fix as ever and did not
know how TO get out. Some OF his pas
sengers had purchased passage on other
steamers, but most of them We're still on
board. They had no money with which
to buy river boat. 1t was generally be-
neved at St. Michael that the Progreso
would soon return to Seattle with the
passengers on board.
The Brixham and I.aurada had been un-
loading for several days. The former was
said 10 be short of food. The steamer
Merwin was chartered by some of the
Charles Nelson and Progreso passengers
and had departed up the river. The Seat
tie No. left on July q with a big load.
No river steamers had arrived down since
the Alliance left.
The Grace Dollar had returned from
successful trip to Koizebue sound and is
likely 10 be here at any time with con-
siderable mail. The Noyo expected to ar
rive here before the Conemaugh ard may
come in today. 1t is doubtful if Capt.
Edgett, OF New York. is alive when the
steamer arrives. He took command at
Port Angeles after the Beach and Evans
caused trouble in the straits. The trip
was hardly commenced before he was taken
down with Bright's disease and has been
a very sick man ever since Capt. Array,
who went north as pilot is in command.
The Noyo took thrty-nine passengers and
considerable treasure from ST. Michael.
The COnemauGh's Trip.
The Conemaugh left Seattle on June u
with the steamer Internatiora al and steel
barge In tow. The barge broke adrift
during a storm and for twenty hours was
lost with the six men on board. BY ac-
cident the big freighter ran across the
barge and by clever work on the part of
Capt. RickmerS the men We're rescued on
June q. When seventy miles from Unimak
pass, the steamer filled with water and
went down. Again the rescue act was sue
cessfully carried out and six lives saved.

Arthur Jones, the local featherweght,

probably the best card offered to the

T WO STOMACHS.
The Upper for the Proteids and the
Lower for the Greater Part
of the Food

II is an interesting study to observe
how the digestion of food is accomplished.
The greater part of vegetable food is
starch and this is never digested in the
stomach proper, nor is ii affected by the
pepsin of the upper stomach.
Starch "a Carbohydrate is passed out
Of the stomach into the duodenum or
second stomach and there treated by the
pancreatic juices, when in time a micro
scopic fungi is grown from a part of the
grain, IL that has been eaten, and these
elements with moisture, heat and time
transform the starch into grape-sugar,
which is the first act of digestion.
These processes are duplicated In an
artificial or mechanical way in the manu-
facture of Grape-Nuts, the new breakfast
food made by the Postum Cereal Co.,
Linn, of Battle Creek, Mich.
In this food one finds the delicate
sweet taste of grape-sugar and when
eaten 1t will be found to quickly digest
and fatten and strengthen the entire
body.
Its especial mission is to nourish and
rebuild the brain and nerve centers.
A certain definite feeling of strength
and stamina comes to the individual after
a few days use of Grape Nuts at
breakfast.
Being condensed food, one does not re-
quire more than to teaspoonfuls at a
meal, which is worth considering from an
economical standpoint
