a WORD OF ADVICE
To Those Coming to Alaska or the
Klondike Gold Fields.

klondike Gold Fields.
One thing should be impressed upon
every miner, prospector or t"ader COM
ing to Alaska, to the Klondike, or the
Yukon country, and that is the neces-
sity for providing IN adequate and
proper food supply. whether procured
in the States, in the Dominion, or ut
the supply stores here )r further on,
this must be his primary concern. Upon
the II in which the miner has OBJ
served or neglected this precaution
more than upon any OTHER II thing
will his success or failure depend.
These supplies must be liealthful and
should be concentrated. hut the most
careful attention in the selection of
foods that will keep unilnpaired indie
finitely under all the conditions which
they Will have to encounter is impera-
tive. For instance, as bread raised
with baking powder must be relied up
on for the chief part of every meal. inn
agine the helplessness of II miner with
IL can of spoiled baking powder. Buy
only the very best flour; it is the cheap
est in the end. Experience has shown
the Royal Baking Powder to be the
most reliable and the trading compan-
les now uniformly supply this brand,
as others will not keep in this climate.
Be sure that the bacon is sweet, sound
and thoroughly cured. These r the
absolute necessities upon which all
must place n chief reliance, and can
under no circumstances be neglected.
They may, of course, be supplemented
by as many comforts or delicacies as
the prospector may be able to pack or
.esire to pay for.-From the Alaska
Mining Journal.
A book of receipts for all kinds Of
cookery, which. is specially valuable
for use upon the trail or in the camp, is
published by the Royal Baking Powder
Company, of New York. The receipts
are thoroughly practical, and the meth
DDS are carefully explained. so that the
Inexperienced may, with its aid, readily
prepare everything requisite for IL good,
wholesome meal. or even dainties if he
has The necessary materials. The mat
ter is i'll compact though durable form,
the whole book weighing but two
ounces. Under Il special arrangement,
this book will be sent free to miners
or others who may desire it. We would
recommend that every one going to the
Nlondike procure a copy. Address the
Royal Baking Powder Co.. New York.

He had seen that she wished to avoid
him, and, being unuccustOmed to such
treatment, was piqued.
"What a charming old place this is!'
he said, plunging into conversation with
the first remark that occurred to him; and
June replied by the monosyllable Eyes"
II had no idea it was So pretty" contin-
ued the Guardsman. "You know / have

quarrel or something, and my mother

aunt are mine, and that makes us forget
sometimes that we are not actually re.
lated"
What a good chap he is"
"Nes," she answered, with enthusiasm,
that he is. We missed him so drcadfully
when he was away, and we we're SO de-
lighted when he came back"
Tom, as soon us he entered the drawing
room. went straight to June. Duty made
no more calls upon him for the present;

marched boldly up and sat down beside
her, and she welcomed him with her kind
est g%lance, and perhaps was not any more
aware than Tom that she was acting.
"How nice you look!" he whispered,
with Il gaZc of %dcvouring admiration
''much nicer than any one else here. 1
wish you had worn my locket, though.
But you will some day." in n happy, con-
tident tone.

MORGAN BECOMES IMPATIENT.
Will Offer Another Resolution Calling
for Cuban Information.

Senator Morgan said Friday that 1t
was his purpose to introduce u resolution
Mt In early date making a second call up
on the President for the consular corre-
spondence bearing upon the condition of
affairs in Cuba. Il think" he said, that
the Senate and the country are entitled
to know officially what the. condition there
is and that the reports of the consuls
should not be withheld for an unusual
length of time. l do not, however, wish
to complicate this matter with the Maine
disaster and shall not introduce the reso-
luton while the court of inquiry is sitting
unless it's report is unnecessarily delayed.
l have set no time for the presentation of
the matter, but will be guided as to the
time by circumstances as they arise" He
said in reply to n question that the reso-
luton proposed by him would be couched
in terms demanding the submission Of the
correspondence.

GREAT NAVAL BATTLE.
American Fleet Destroys SPAN
ism Squadron i'm Manila
HarbOr. and Batters
Down the Forts.
The Spanish Fleet Totally De-
strOyed, and the Town and
Bay Commanded by the
Yankee lsun.bOats.

New York, May 3-A dispatch
to The Herald from London says:
The Asiatic squadron Of the
United States, Commodore
Dewey commanding, Sunday
engaged and completely defeated
the Asiatic squadron Of Spain in
the harbor of Manila, in the
Philippine Islands.
During the two engagements
that took place Commodore
Monteio, commanding the Span
ish fleet, lost three of his largest
ships. His flagship, the steel
cruise Reina Christina, and the
armored cruiser Castillo were
burned, and the cruiser Don
Juan de Austria was blown up.
Several other Spanish vessels
were badly damaged. One re-
port adds that several other
Spanish ships were sunk by
their commanders to prevent
their falling into the hands of
the Americans.
There was a heavy loss of life
among the Spanish. Captain
Darso, commanding the Reina
Christina, was killed. The blow
ing up of the Don Juan de Aus
tria was attended by great loss
of life among her crew, her com
mander also being killed
AS the smoke lifted it was
seen that the flagship Renia Chris
tina was on fire The vessel
was completely burned. In the
interval between the two engage
ments Commodore MontejO
moved his flag from the Reina
Christina to the smaller cruiser
Isle de Cuba. To the fact that
he made this change he doubt
less owes his life.
The cruiser Castillo, next to
the flagship the largest and most
powerful Of the Spanish squad
ron, was also burned. The
cruiser Don Antonio de Ulloa and
the Mindanao were also badly
damaged in this encounter
There We're undoubtedly heavy
/ losses in men on both sides.
One apparently trustworthy re
port states that the Spanish had
200 killed and 400 wounded.
Trustworthy details of the
American loss Of life will hardly
be obtainable until Commodore
Dewey has taken Manila or has
sent vessel with dispatches to
Hong Kong.
The engagement lasted two
hours and resulted in the an
initiation of the Spanish fleet
This dispatch adds that the
American ships withdrew with
their magazine vessel, in the
center of the roadstead, for the
purpose of coaling. One Amer
lean vessel, the name Of which
is not mentioned, is said to have
been disabled. Commodore
Dewey requested the British
consul, E. H. Rawson Walker, to
convey message to the Spanish
governor general, demanding
the surrender of all the torpe
does and guns at Manila, anc
the possession Of the cable of
fees. saying that unless these
! terms were complied with, h.
would proceed to bomb bard th'
city.
