OUT FROM DAWSON
IN EIGHT DAYS

JUNEAU, Alaska, July IL, by steam
ship Cottage City to Port Townsend,
July 16.-Forty men, comprising the
second up-river party, left Dawson on
June 80, and after seven days actual
travelling time have since been waiting
here, at Dyea and at Skaguay for
steamboat to take them south to San
Francisco and Seattle This beats all
previous records out from Dawson so
badly as to indicate that the extreme
northern route by way of st. Michael
is no longer in it. Summarizing the
trip a little more closelv, they were
eight days from Dawson to Lake Ben
nett. Small steamboats, with plenty of
power at their sterns made this fast
time possible.
Two boats came up--the Ora and the
Goddard-and the outcoming party was
about equally divided between them.
These steamers on the Lewis and Yu-
kon, from Dawson to White Horse
Rapids, thence over portage OF two
miles, and then by another steamer to
Lake Bennett, determines the question
of the quickest way to get out of DaW-
son to the south. This time would have
been beaten but for the fact that all
hanQS were lOTCeO W cut Woou o'o'-'
the river banks in order to keep
steam up.
The boat from time to time left
parties along the shore to cut wood, so
that after this 1t is possible to make
Dawson from Puget Sound, empty
handed or travelling with an outfit, in
ten days. The fare up the river was on
this trip 5000; down 1t is $780,
Tonight as the party leaves the yell
low dust and the heavy nuggets have
been dragged out of the safes Of the
hotels and the banks. Perhaps no man
brought out more dust than Jack
Haulay. who has been sitting around
Juneau hotels for five day. In the first
white shirt he has worn in two years.
Mr. Haulay's gold was so much In bulk
that it had to b divided into salt sacks,
the salt being bought and emptied into
the street in order to place the gold In
the safe. His dust is from Eldorado.
In all about $350,000 was brought out by
the forty men. / have seen gold piled
up here on the counter Of hotel in
the same bulk that it is removed for
the days business in trays from the
vaults of the German-American Saw
ings Bank on California street.
William Minter of Tacoma, Wash.
was one of the party who came out
with Haulay. He has a few heavy
sacks himself Both say that a few
days before they left Dawson the water
in the river had subsidized again and
that there was so little depth in the
channel as to still make 1t doubtful
again that the steamers would get up
the river. HAL HOFFMAN.

ADVERTISEMENTS

woman's attractiveness in the eyes of
man depends largely on her physical ap-
pearance. Nature, in order to preserve the
race, guides mankind by the instructive
preference for a mate who is physically
sound and wholesome
If intellect alone were chiefly sought, the
offspring might be a generation of Solo
mons for wisdom, but they would perish
in infancy for want of physical stamina
A weak or unhealthy woman Is untitled to
fulfil her part in perpetuating the race; she
is unequal to the demands Of motherhood
and wifehood she is robbed Of her natural
womanly attractiveness.
Many woman is cheated of life's choicest
gifts by dyspeptic, bile-poisoned condi-
ton Of the system, which shows itself in a
pimply skin, sallow complexion, tainted
breath, or thin, ungraceful form.

flying symptoms of NAL nutrition and i'm

Discovery Through its remarkable effect
upon the liver and digestive organs it
sweeps all impurities out Of the circula-
ton and creates fresh supply of new,

thousand.
Very many of this great crowd
doubtless will find themselves untitled
to combat the severe conditions of this
country, and will go out. 1t is a ques-
ton if they will act promptly enough
to enable them to get out in time. The
strong grip of the winter is just three
months distant I do not think that
next winter will see that terrible strug-
gle for bread that last winter wit
messed, but, rather, it will be a strug-
gle for work. There is scarcely work
to be had at wages for material frac-
ton of this crowd and for those who
will not, or cannot, go out in the hills
for themselves there must be lively
competition for the work that is Of
fered. This is not a good land for the
helpless or incompetent, and it is al
ready apparent there are many such in
this throng.
