at first lifted up, then suddenly dropped into a watery hole-all are drenched and one cannot draw his breath the sprays are so thick, but the next moment we emerg- ed and the most exciting experience of my life was over. After a short rest and din- ner we started again and had twenty-five miles more of very bad river, passing over Fiveinger Rapids and Rink Rapids, but they are not very dangerous.
 We passed Hootilinqua river, B g Salmon and Little Salmon rivers, then White and Stewart rivers and mile or so beyond the latter the ice got so dangerous that we had to land and go into camp. We started again next morning in our effort to reach Dawson City, but the same ob- stace prevented and we had to land on the banks of Henderson creek, from where l now am writing. Here we have staked out a claim for each of ns. There has been a stampede for gulch across the river, and we have also a claim staked out there.
 We have built a log cabin a protection from the severe cold which has now set in. It is a three days journey to get to our claim up the river and back.
 q am digging a hole now, but the days are very short it being dark from S:S0 in the evening to in the morning.
 Our spirit thermometer has already reg istered 55 degrees below zero.
 There is no work on the KlondilIe at present as they want to reduce the wages from s15O to Sl.00 an hour, there being about about five hours to the day
 Joe is going to Dawson to find out the situation.
 'We expect to get up Stewart river in the spring. It is not very encouraging at present. but things may change before long, Joe leaves for Dawson in the morn ing, and expects to get back before Christi mas and l will keep digging until lie gets back. anyway, as l will have to guard our goods.
 I think our provisions will last until next September, and I am looking for every thing to pan out all right.

The three mentioned took a steamer on last August 21 and five days later landed at Skagawa, the nearest water point to Dawson City. Here they laid in 5000 pounds of supplies and outfit, and pur- chased a horse and mule There were 3,OOO others in Skagawa at that time bent on reaching the same destination. The Bessemer party, with their horse and mule did their own forwarding. It was a tedious task ana the same ground had to be covered ten times to transport the out fit. From Skagawa to the foot of Chilkoot mountain it is seven miles, and to gain this point it required a journey of seventy miles, While one remained with the SUD- plies two would go forward and strike camp where another would remain while the third went back and forth with the two animals, packing the supplies, each animal carrying 150 pounds each trip
 By unremitting toll and persistent hard ships, on the 18th day of September they finally established their camp on the sum- init of Chilkoot mountain, barren and far beyond the timber line, and only twenty five miles from Skagawa.
 The rainy season had already then set in, and where the trail was. not almost im- passible with rocks and boulders, it was a constant quagmire, so that the animals would at times sink to their launches

 NEWS FROM THE KLOND|KE Bessemer's Contingent Write to

 Pan Out All Right.
ARE MEN OF DETERMINATION
Special to The Age-Herald.

Bessemer Jan. 22.-From the frozen banks of Henderson creek where the thermometer is now at least 60 degrees be- low zero comes the first real news from the "Bessemer Klondikers'' in the shape of letter from Adam Kyle, one of the remaining two of party of three who started for the new Eidorado early last August.
 They were three Bessemerltes. Adam Kyle, Joe Leonard and Louis Hoster, Jr. The two former left families and the lat ter is the son of Secretary Hoster of the Howard Harrison Iron company who has since returned, leaving his comrades cn the summit of Chilkoot Pass on September r, and after having turned over to them his outfit and supplies arrived home on October IA with the determination to re- join them in the spring.
 The movements of this Bessemer con- tingent are watched with unusual interest as they are known to be men of determi- nation and are backed by several proni- nent men who have money and will see them through to the end
 The story of their trip up to the time Hoster left is one of trial and hardship the balance is told in the letter from Kyle which reached friends in Bessemsr Thurs day.
The age-herald., 1898-01-23

The adventures of the remaining two in their trip to Lake Bonnet are but a repe tition of their former hardships, and they raeched there about the same time Hoster reached home. While ell route they fell in with two more gold seekers, Pete Hartle and Jack Montgomery, and the four will remain together until spring.
 The latest news from them is Kyles let ter to a Bessemer friend. which was over six weeks in reaching its destination, from which personal reference is here submitted:
 Henderson Creek, Nov. 29. 1S97-After a day's sail we reached the foot of Lake Bennett Just before leaving next morning we saw a man waist deep in the lake look ing for his goods, who ptifully told us how the night before his two comrades were drowned in trying to land their boat, which was smashed beyond repair, and all the supplies sunk.
 Lake Bennett is ty anty-five miles long. Then we passed over Caribou crossing three miles long, then over Lake Marsh, nineteen miles distance. Next we had six miles of river to Lake Tagish, where we encountered the revenue officers, and 1t cost Joe and me s67. We crossed this lake and down Rapid river 30 miles to Lake Le- Barge, which is thirty-one miles across. Twenty miles more of river, part of which is through a cannon 80 to 90 feet high and nearly mile long, with swift water, and we had to get a man to pilot us through. Right on the other side are White Horse Rapids. Joe would not go through there in the boat, but walked around. The other two men and I got in and were taken through by the same man who steered us through the cannon.
 ''It was most exciting experience. our boat had to be frightened to pass this most

kO0 loHINER BOUND OVER.
Considerable Complaint Over the Workings of
 the State Road Law.
Special to The Age-Herald.

Florence Jan. 22.-United States Deputy Marshal Wright, assitsed by Deputy Tomp- kns, brought to town on yesterday a moonshner from over in Limestone county. near Tickridge postoffice. His name was given as Mat McLemore, and when given hearing before Commissioner Smith was bound over to the grand jury at Hunts vile in the sum of $30O
 From all over the county considerable complaint is being heard as to the working of the state road law, which stipulates that only during the month of January shall road taxes be paid in money. After the 1st of February delnquents will either have to work ten days or hire a substitute. To hire a laborer for ten days costs $5 or $750, and the farmers especially claim that it is an injustice to have to work ten days to pay tax which amounts to only $S. This makes a scale of only 30 cents per day, and dissatisfaction is becoming very out spoken.
 The political pot has commenced to boil in earnest in this (Lauderdale) county, and a large crop of candidates are expected to announce within the next few weeks. Those who have already announced or who are avowed candidates are already hustling about among the uedr peoPie, "" 'sii'i9 them what they want at their hands, Ihe date for the primary has not yet been set, but the sentiment among all the can didates is for an early election, so as to have the agony over as soon as possipie. For the position of probate judge, the most eagerly sought in this county, the known candidates are Hons. w. B. Mcclure and Turner and Rice. The former has served for the past six years, and was member of the commissioners court for several years previous to his election to the office of probate judge MT. Rice is young man who is popular all over the country, and his friends are confident that he will win out in the primary.

Then, again. 1t would lead through gull lies and gorges and beneath overhanging rocks and crags, from which at times the falling water would drench the travellers below. It was too great trial for Louis Hoster. who began to suffer intensely with rheumatism from the terrible exposure, and after submitting the matter to his com rades, he left them camped on the barren summit of Chicot mountain.

The greatest depth of the Atlantic
has been found some 100 miles to the
northwlrd of the island Of St. Thomas,
where soundlngs of 3.s15 fathoms were
obtained. The seas around Grea. Brit
ain can hardly be regarded as forming
part Of the Atlantic hollow. They are
rather part OF the platform banks Of
the European continent which the ocean
has overlooked. An elevation OF the
sea bed 100 fathoms would suffice to lay
bare the greatest part OF the North sea
and join England to Denmark, Holland,
Belgium and France. A deep channel OF
water would run down the west coast
Of Norway, and with this the majority
Of the fjords would be connected. A
great part OF the bay Of Biscay would
disappear: but Spain and Portugal are
but little removed from the Atlantic de-
preston. The 100-fathom line ap-
proaches very near the west coast, and
soundings OF 100 fathoms can be made
within twenty miles of Cape st. Vincent,
and much greater depths have been
sounded at distances but little greater
than this from the western shores Of the
Iberian Peninsula. -
