Interesting Letter from Telegraph
 Creek.

Telegraph Creek, March 13, 1s98.-- I arrived here eight and one-half days from the mouth of the river. It has been very soft until day before yes terday, when it froze hard, and is now good travelling from here to Scott river, a distance of sixty miles. From Scott river to Porcupine cutoff there is deep snow in places, but at no place did I find more than four feet, and that only ip places where it had driftcd.
 The hills are beginning to get bare around here now, and the indications are that we will have an early spring. Geese were seen at the open water just north of Barley Cache two days ago.
 A. B. Ross with the safvey party for Mckenzie, Mann X Co.,. arrived this evening, also Payne and party, of Vic toria and the "Wild Missouri Bill" The Johnson party from Winnipeg were at Barley Cache three days ago. The Mcdonald outfit is at the Milling; and the saw mill part of it was sent ahead with dog teams.
 w. s. Simpson is out from his fur trading post at the junction of the Muddy and Lizard rivers, and reports a party at his place who started in by the Edmonton route last fall.
 Robert Hyland is getting along finely with his broken leg, and expects to be out in few days.
 There have been several very prom ising quartz locations made in this vii cinity this winter. Among those be- ing especially worthy of mention is the property of the Stikeen River Mining company. which consists of two groups |-of-elAims located respectively nine and eleven miles above here on the Stikeen river. There they have located seven claims or what appears to be large body of micaceous iron, with fine quartz gangue, carrying free gold, also iron and copper sulphurets. They have not as yet received any returns from samples sent out to bc assayed. but they have sampled the ledge thor oughly, which, Ey the way. is from 800 to 1, ,000 feet wide, and. with only the ap- pliances that Telegraph ere ek can boast of at present, q mortar and blow pipe, have as yet failed to secure an assay of less than five dollars per ton, and, in several instances, several hundred dol lars, but the average has been about S2O.OO. They have, understand, bonded one of their groups to an east ern syndicate for sum embracing five figures, though the exact amount has not been made public.
 J. M. Jackson has also located large ledge few miles below here which promises very we'll There has also been some locations made between here and the lake and rock is continually pouring into town.

 Mining Company.

The following letter speaks for itself:
 SKAGUAY, Feb. 25, 1898.
 My DEAR MR. HOWELL We ar rived here at ? p. Ill. today. without having to suffer any inconvenience or mishap. No doubt you will think this extraordinary, considering the very large number of passengers, horses, dogs and cargo our good ship Islander had on board when she sailed from your port. She was burtlened to the utmost of her sustaining power.
 We have been treated with kindness and courtesy by all those connected with the boat, from the Commodore down to the steward. Captain Irving, in his large-hearted way, acceded to the reasonable requests of all. The careful and skilful manner in which he, no matter how critical the circum- stance, evoked the admiration and praise of all the passengers. We fully realized that our lives, day and night, were depending on his skill as navi-
 
 gator and the care he exercised.
 The purser, Mr. Bishop, deserves special mention. He was very kind and untiring in his efforts to accommo- date or meet the requirements of all without showing the slightest par tiality.
 We believe there was not a kicker on board. if there was he ought to be kicked. Only two of the passengers were ill: they were weak men, unfit and unaccustoned to travel.
 We are in excellent condition. Per init us again to thank you for the great kindness which you bestowed upon us while in Vancouver
 With kind regards. VIC arc yours very truly,

S0uaw Men in Alaska.

At Lake Lebarge we met an English man who was taking his wife and three children for a trip to Five Fin ger Rapids. His wife was a squaw, and her face, as were also those of the children, was painted black. 1 never did find out the real reason these squaws have for painting their faces black. Some say 1t Is because they think 1t makes them more beautiful, and still others claim that 1t Is a pre- ventive from the mosquitoes. We be- came quite friendly with this English man. He was taking his family to visit some of his wife's people. He had just received news from England that the death of three people had made him heir to a noble title and quite an in- heritance, but to enjoy its possession, etc, of course he would have to return to England. "Of course,' said I, you are going at once" He looked around

No Map of the United States.

"The school children of the Bermu- das know nothing of American his tory," says a New York woman who has just returned from Hamilton. "One day stopped and talked with a bright little colored boy on the street. The Bermuda negro, you know, IS su- perior in intelligence to the Southern negro of this country. He has neither the thick lips nor the flat nose of our American negro. His superiority Is ac- counted for by the fact that he has in his veins the blood of the Indians cap tured in King Philips war and taken as slaves to the Bermudas.

tablished there and the place fortified

About fifteen years ago the paSSen
 gers In an express train through Georgia, of whom the writer was one observed that the switch at a station where the train stopped was kept by a gray-haired old woman. One or two of the rougher men in the train jeered at her. She did not even glance at them, but kept her eye fixed on her switch. The more civil passengers sped away, but she took no notice of this either, being busy with her work. An Atlanta paper now records the death of this woman, Mrs. Sally Car roll, in Macon, aged 96 years. She kept her post, 1t states, for twenty years, and although many trains pass ed 1t each day, she never was known to have a misplaced switch. Her hus- band had been the switch-tender, and when he died, as she understood his work, she took It up. We cite her case, not as an example, but as a practical hint to the countless girls who are stretching out their hands vaguely and helplessly for some work by which to earn their living. If there Is any one thing which a woman can do we'll, to which she can give her whole energy, she will be likely to succeed in the doing of 1t. A woman was left widow with children, and no money. She was gent ly bred and educated. But l know nothing thoroughly" she said, except cookery. 1 can cook" ''Then find Op- portunities to teach other women to cock" said friend 4 few appliances were procured. and she began lecturing and giving lessons to women in cook cry In the city in which she lived and Tn the neiEhDoriug towns. She has earned g. moderate but comfortable in- come for herself and her children. \ young girl, suddenly left peuuUess, was an expert ln nothing put dressing hair. She sought diligently for business in one or two important inland cities, where cultures were unknown, teach ing women how to care for their hair and to dress 1t becomingly, and thus supports herself. Still another girl, obliged to earn her bread, recollected that she had peculiar skill In putting up luncheons for the children. She sent cards and made applications to the mothers of the pupils of large private school, stating that she would furnish wholesome and dainty luncheons at recess. An old colored woman with white apron and gorgeous turban car ried the white packages in huge bas- ket. The trade was unique, and proved so successful that it extended to the students of great university in the same city. Half a dozen old imam my's'' supply their ravenous demand, affording very satisfactory pecuniary profit to the young woman. In unusual occupations there will be few rivals and If they minister to the simple needs of class or classes of persons they will generally meet with success If conduct ed with ordinary good sense and indus try.

The extent to which the Mormons are carrying on their proselyting labors is shown by the North Carolina Pres byterian, which says that there are now more Mormon elders at work in North Carolina than there are Presby- terian minister's" and that lat the present rate of increase 1t will not be long before the Mormons will have more churches and more communicants in the State than the Presbyterians." Since that church Is the third largest denomination in the State, the effective ness of the work of the Mormon mis- sionarieS is abundantly attested. The Protestant ministers propose at once to take steps to counteract the growth of MOrmonism, a labor they should have undertaken long ago, as 1t is now probably too late to do much effective work along that line.
