Although a number of games remain
to be played in the girls tournament
only one was played this week. Miss
Swords So, beat Miss E. Smith So.
The golf course has been filled with
players this week, both in the morning
and afternoon, this is largely due to the
college and school boys having their
vacations and also on account of the
Morris County Club not being open.
A number of bowling parties have been
given lately by the younger members of
the club. On Monday evening Tatnall
Nicols 3rd entertained a party of boys
Miss Walsh had the alleys on Tuesday

sive of their armament, sum not exceed
ing $2,340, 600, is also provided by the
bill, and Il gunboat to take the place of
the Michigan will be built at a cost not
exceeding 100000, and will be stationed
on the great lakes, provided her construc-
ton shall conform to all existing treaties
and conventions.
For armor for the ships authorized in
the bill and under construction an appro-
priation is made of $5,40O,S0O provided
that the armor for the three ships author
lied by the act Of June 10, 1896, shall not

age rate to exceed $400 ton, including
nickel. For equipment of the new vessels

The bill provides that the contracts for

ready transporting freight, and has more
business than it can handle. It's capacity
is $50 tons daily or outfits for about 800
men. The line consists Of a railway from
Dyea to Canyon City and thence an aerial
tramway to Sheep Camp, and from Sheep
Camp over the summit $500 feet above
sea level to Crater lake, which has an ele-
walton of about 5000 feet. From Crater
lake stream flows into Deep lake and
this empties into Long lake, which in turn
empties into Lake Lindermann.
The rates for passengers from Tacoma,
Seattle, Port Townsend, Victoria and
Vancouver to Fort Wrangel are: First
class, $50; second-class, $40; to Juneau,
first. S35; second, 500; to Haines' Mission,
Skaguay and Dyea, first, $50; second, $50.
This includes meals, berth and $50 pounds
of baggage. Extra baggage three cents
pound. Miners outfits are classed as
freight. Freight rates are as follows: To
Fort Wrangel S. ton of 1000 pounds,
or of 40 cubic feet at the ships option; to
Juneau, 50 per ton; to Paincs' Mission,
Skaguay and Dyea, $13 rer ton; horses,
$35 per head; dogs, $3.50 per head. This
does not include landing charges at the
port of destination.
Another suggestion may be timely: All
vessels don't leave Seattle or Tacoma on
schedule time. Some of the old tubs delay
as long as ten days or two weeks. They
do this because it takes so long to stop
the cracks in the hull and FIX rotten ma
chinery or rigging. with them it's a
clear case of paying your money and tax
ing your chances-both Of starving and
getting there.

farm property all over the State. hall-
road traffic was delayed from tive to ten
hours all over Nebraska, the engineers
finding it impossible to make time against
the storm. Freight trains were cut III
two sections and many trains Of less than
a dozen cars were unable to move on the
level prairie where the full force of the
wind was felt. Much damage to stock
and winter wheat is apprehended. There
was no snow on the fields to protect the
tender plants from the cold winds and the
prospects are that the growth will be not
only retarded, but many fields wholly de-
stroyed. Much stock being fed in the
State had been permitted to run out on the
range by owners under the impression
that spring was here, and this will be the
cause of much loss. The loss to the sheep
herds is likely to be especially severe. Inns
is the only really dangerous storm the
stockmen have had to encounter this sea
son.
The blizzard was most severe IN TN
northwestern part of the State. line all
was so filled with snow that it was impos-
sibie to see distance of ten feet for sew
eral hours. Many punches Of stock We're
scattered and will not be gathered togeth-
err for several days. The weather has not
been cold enough to freeze cattle, but
heavy loss is likely from the stock STAN

ing cut by wire fences, straying beyond

lace of Tacoma, son-in-law Of Chief JUS
tice Fuller and president of the Chilcoot
Railroad and Transportation Company,
rented the steamship City Of Seattle last
fall for 81 800 a month. She carries 625
passengers and 400 tons of freight, and
makes the trip to Dyea in 70 hours. She
had gone out of commission, and her own
ers were mighty glad to accept Wallace's
offer. They are not so glad now, however,
as Wallace is clearing over $4,000 a
month above expenses, with a prospect Of
no decrease in business in the next three
years.
Not one Of twenty-five steamers will
consider any more proposals for freight
unless the date is later than May 1. They
have absolutely every cubic foot Of space

passage except on through tickets from
the East, in which case berths are reserv-

several planks Of her hull washed loose
by the seas which broke over her. While
there were no signs Of boats among the
wreckage, it is not believed that her pas
sengers and crew escaped by putting off
from the vessel in them. Furthermore,
no word has been received from the sur
vivors, if any exist.
According to the tugboat men, there
was pretty stiff breeze when the Amy
sailed out of Golden Gate on Sunday, and
by noon it was blowing Il gale. She left
under topsails, and when last seen was
standing out fer an othng. There was a
heavy sea running. and it is supposed that
some time during the night she was struck
by q squall and turned turtle.
The Helen ". Amy was once south
sea trader and was quite famous for her
many adventures among the reefs. The
vessel was in good condition for an old
vessel. She was on the dry docks some
days before being put on the berth, and
her owners spent $4,000 in repairing her.
She had a temporary house on deck.
When the Aln1y left port she had twenty

About 10000 men are sailing each
month from Tacoma and Seattle on the
regular passenger steamers for Juneau,
Skaguay and Dyea. Fortyfiye trips were
scheduled for February and March, and
to these must be added the voyages made
by schooners and sailing craft of all sorts
Every kind Of craft in Seattle and Ia
coma, even to canoes, is hiring out for
Skaguay and Dyea. Canoes will carry
one all right if properly managed. The
Alaska Indians have been coming down
every summer since 1859 for the hoppick-
ing season on Puget sound, padding 1850
miles down and back again. The canoe
business has come to life again, therefore,
and Indian canoemen command high
wages.

persons, which was until recently in finan-

Houses that have been empty since the
boom burst in 1890 are full now, and ho-

same is true in Seattle, where rents have

Late advices received by the Navy De-

describe in detail the extraordinary eff
forts which are being put forth by the
Spanish naval authorities in preparing for
war.
On the cruiser Cristobal Colon 1900
men, it is declared, have been at work
night and day for a fortnight past, max
ing that ship ready for service. The ar
mored cruiser Carlos V. is now at Havre,
Franco, where she has just received from
the French cannon maker, Camel, two
enormous eleven-inch rifles. These guns
fire projecti.es weighing about 500 pounds,
with a range of twelve and one-half miles.
The eieven-inch guns are mounted one
forward and one aft. In addition Camel
has furnished the Carlos V. with broad
side battery made UP OF 5.5-inch rapid-fre
guns. The projectiles employed weigh
about seventy pounds, and the rate Of fire
is about twelve shots per minute.
