Indians to Build a Church.

The Shaker Indians of the Puget
Sound country are moving earnestly
in their efforts to build a church at
Jamestown, and their solicitation of
funds extends from one end of the
Sound to the other, and all contribute
literally. Tie Mud Bay settlement is
not large, but it is enthusiastic in the
matter of building a church. Chief
Louis Youer1ock of the Mud Bay tribe
was in Olympia one day last week, and
exhibited to some of his friends the
subscription paper that was circulated
in the Mud Bay Indian neighborhood,
and it was found to contain the names
of more Indians than were believed to
be resident there. And such names!
But we shall not attempt to transcribe
them here. The Indians are not
wealthy, and the subscriptions were OF
course moderate in their Individual
sums, but they aggregate about $50 for
this neighborhood. If the contribu-
tons all along the line are as general
and as liberal the Jamestown church
should be an imposing structure
Olyrnpian.

Home from Dyea.

L. X. Munson, who left for a trip to
Dyea, about three weeks ago with the
intention of going into business if
things looked right, returned Saturday
night. He spent four days and looked
over both Dyea, Skaguay, and their
prospects for the future, and decided
that he would not go into business.
,, Most lines of business are crowded,
thousands of people are focking to
both ports and striking out oyer the
trails bound for the Klondike, and
while Mr.. Munson considers the pros
poets fair for making money, good
many chances are necessarily taken in
both health and business.
Col. S. P. Richardson, is busily en-
gagged in looking after the interests of
the company he represents, and taking
care Of the ship load of lumber, which
was taken up for their new buildings.
He seems to think that everything was
flourishing, and that he would likely
remain at Dyea, perhaps permanently.
Lew. reports meeting number of
friends and acquaintance on the trip
and that Shelton's last batch of Klon-
dikers were working their way over
the trail to the Lakes, having reached
Sheep camp with their outfits at last
accounts. Probably $50 buildings of
ali kinds are going up in Dyea and
Skaguay, but he considers that there
is already ten men for one job there,
and advises those without ample means
to see them through, to stay at home.
There is large proportion of the dis
orderly element there, but the towns
are fairly quiet at present, vigilance
