The filthy practice of dumping garbage and outhouSe refuse in the river bed at the west end of the several cross streets, Is about as reprehensible as leaving it in the city proper, and the source of equally as much danger from sickness, for there is no possible chance of that matter being washed away before the July freshets, consequently it is exposed to the hot rays of the sun and a decided menace to the health of every person living in that neghborhooi.
 Fire Warden Larkin has had his atten- ton called to the matter, and was kept busy posting notices at the end of each street warning all offenders against dump ing any more refuse on the river bed under penalty oi prosecution, and directing them Co take every such load Co the tide flats on the south end of the town at a place be- tween the Juneau and the Seattle wharf. Also nstuttlng them that all such depos- its must be made at low tide and as far out as possible. so as to insure the incoming tide carrying away such refuse every day.
 Mr. Larl(in says he will see that this is strictly enforced, as the coming warm weather will demand a close inspection of all sanitary questions
 There are still a number of property owners in the business portions of the town who are piving no attention to the repairs or the levellng of their sidewalks. Mr. Larllin keeps after those and so far has had many promises of reform, but no re- form. The three lots on Mckinney street betweet Main and State on which the mounted police h1ve their headquarters are m illustration Of this gross neglect as re gards a sidewalk. lt was reported thlt Major Woods, of the mounted police at Taggish, owned these three lots and that he ought to put in a new sidewalk, but the sergeant in charge says that the major only owns the one lot on which their building stands, and that he had written the major and was waiting q reply. The condition of the sidewalk in front of these three lots is disgraceful, and after dark they are a danger to pedestrians.

 Mrs. Leslie Butler yesterday received a letter from her husband in Atlin, in which he writes that little mining is being done on some of the creeks, but that lt was yet too cold for any definite work.

 Manager Eastman, of the wateTworks company, has rigged up a porcuplne boiler in the rear of his office and will use it for the purpose of forcing steam down into ihe mains and supply pipes that still remain obdurate to the warm rays Of the sun He believes that all the mains and fire hy- drants will be in full operation within a very few days.

Would Write Novel of Army Life
 on New Lines.
 What We want. said the publisher "is a good realistic story of army life, something that will show just how events move among the soldiers. DO
 "I see, " said the author. "I was in the army myself. I know exactly how things are conducted. "
 Something that will thrill the read sr to the marrow and make his hair stand on end. "
 "I thought you said you wanted something out of the ordinary"
 That's what am after "
 "Well. in that case, We won't have any thrill in it. Of course it's there, but it comes so suddenly and is so soon over that you hardly have time to know what thrilled you. If you want to get right down to hardpan realism and sound the keynote of the soldiers gen eral experience. you want to leave out most of tn. description of hero rush. ing headlong through struggling men and over fallen horses. waving a gun with one hand and the star spangled banner with the other, while singing My Country, 'Tis of Thee, at the top of his voice. We'll get out of the beaten track of fiction and relate how many hours day he spent currying his horse and polishing his weapons, and how many miles a day he travelled, and how often he wanted to talk back and didn't dare. and how he would have been willing to give $4 square inch for a beefsteak. and all the rest of the little details which play so important a part and which writers of fiction have hitherto 20 strangely neglected.
