by John NJ. Toucey of the New York

Niagara Falls" as a subject, and be-
fore 1t was exhibited on this side the
water 1t was sent TO England. where 1t
drew enormous crowds, because, Mr..
Toucey says, the people of Great Brit

than they know anything else in all
America and take more interest in
them. This is fact which Mr.. Toucey
and other hackers of the Pan-Amerlcan

But long before this. as early as the
fall OF 1894. was established an Ameri-
can town called Circle City, almost at
the edge OF the arctic circle, about 1,i00
miles from the mouth of the Yukon. 1t
is on the west bank. where an elevated
tableland borders the river, and 1t is
Just within the Yukon fats. Circle city
proved to be the distributing point FOR
the vast region of Birch creek and Will
without doubt become the metropolis of
the Yukon. principally because 1t is IN
American soil.
There Is no natural advantage in put
ting the town Just where IL Is, only that
there is small bend OF the river Just
out OF reach OF the rash current, which
makes II very nice landing place FOR
small boats. For mile back Of Circle
City nothing but an even country can
be seen. yet the greatest interest lies
in the fact that Birch creek is distant
only eight miles across iow divide,
and, OF course, to all gold hunters Birch
creek would be the point OF interest tor
this district.
An Indian and half breed took out
the first gold on Birch creek at a point
now named Pitkas Point. Notwith-
standing the great Iilondike excite
ment, there were last season about 1000
miners working on Birch creek. The
creeks around Circle City on which gold
has been found are Birch, Mastodon
(Which Is 20 miles from town. Boulder,
Greenhorn, Headwood, Mammoth. Por-
cupine, Harrison. Miller and Eagle. To
the miners on these creeks the question
of transportation Is of the most vital
Importance, for 1t now costs about $50
to have 100 pounds OF provisions carried
from Circle City to Birch creek by pack
horse | wonder that already some one
has not introduced the patient little
burro into Alaska. He is Just as able
to Withstand the cold as horse or dog,
and his long hair would render him al
| most impervious to the mosquito. He
could also keep himself in winter prov
ender without very much assistance.
AS an innovation, one of the well known
merchants of Circle City had "a moose,
that he had taken when calf, trained
| to become well behaved draft ami
NAL. The animal performed quite few
domestic operations, such as hauling
wood, etc. 1t might still have been an
| ornament to its kind, but 1t was shot
by newcomer who had heard of the
marvellous game in Alaska and of
/ course wanted to try his hand at shoot
ing the same. The old inhabitants voted
| that this man from the States had a
good deal less Judgment than ardor.
At Circle City postofiice has been
established by the United States. and
on July IA, 1897. the first United States
| mail arrived there. Before that private
enterprise had controlled the mails.
These parties would receive from $500
to $1,000 for one trip from Juneau to
Circle City. In 1897 there was only one
trip made with American mail, while
the Canadian government made three.
The Indians make the best pilots, and
nearly all the Yukon river boats have

Ing all its energies norf to an exposl-

Fifteen years ago the lake front was
dismal dumping ground, cut up by the
tracks of the Illinois Central railroad.
With the development of preparations
for the Worlds fair the necessity for
improving it appealed to the park COM
missloners. and a good deal has been
done already to render 1t less unslghtly.
An ornamental wall shuts off the rail-
road tracks from view. and between this
wall and Michigan avenue a park has
been laid out. The Art institute is on
this park. and the new library building
faces II. Two statues have been erect
ed in commanding positions. But the
park commissioners have felt that the
lake shore was reclaimed from the rail-
road, and as the railroad company had
an undoubted title in the ground 1t was
occupying all that the commissioners
could do was to extend the shore by

to do what winter work can be done and
come back in the fall. When the above
is possible. then some idea of that great
