covered and opened up in this i'm
mense territory there can be no
doubt.
Under present conditions not more
than one out of fifty of the gravel
mines which have been located will
pay to be worked, yet, as costs are re-
duced and improved methods are in
troduced, most of them should yield
good profits.
There have been located in the
Klondike district nearly three thousand
claims. A small proportion-not over
| one-tenth, or. at most, one-ffth Of
these, it is now believed by the best
informed miners--will pay to work by
the methods now in vogue and with
wages and other costs anywhere near
the prevailing rates.
1t should be remembered that the
value of this immense territory--the
Yukon country-lies not so much in
the rich claims in the Klondike dis
trict, but in the fact that gold is much
more evenly distributed over an i'm
mense area than in any other known
mining district in the world.

is quite probable that the Birch Creek
district, on the American side, nearly
three hundred miles below here, will
in time produce as much II not more
gold. 1t is so far as is known more
extensive, and, while the placers dis.
covered are OF lower grade, they oil

There is a little garden about the
house, snd here, in the season, Mr..
Hitler raises a few vegetablesi and
weeds and waters an old-fashioned
posey bed, in which grow all the ia
vorite flowers of his wife's youth, and
a nosegay OF these is generally upon
her table. Sometimes he carries her
chair out into the garden, and she sits
there while he works.
At present, however, the dry and
withered stalks of the garden favor

snow, as if bidding one to wonder
whether Mrs. Hitler will ever see
them bloom again. There seems to be
no good reason why her more
sprightly husband may not live to see
them once and again.

Dangerous Carbolic Acid.

A Board of Health warning has been
sent out in regard to the danger Of
using carbolic acid, either as disin-
fectant or as a cleansing wash for sim.
pie wounds. Even in an ointment ii
is not safe. Local gangrene is said to
be the penalty of too strong an appli-
cation, or of o weak application too
long applied. Another point of infor-
nation advanced by the board is that
carbolic acid is used in surgery as q
germicide and disinfectant, and not as
o means Of healing wounds; on the
contrary it would retard or prevent

The introduction Of capital properly
