| History is filled to the brim with
lawless acts, committed in new min
ing districts, and in most. cases the
governing authorities have been con-
tent to let the miners work out their
own salvation by vigilance committees
and the summary decisions of Judge
Lynch. But right from the fall of the
| flag Canada is determined to attend
to this work and it is an experiment
which old miners are prone to look
upon with considerable wonder. They
can see nothing ahead but gallons of
| trouble for the mounted police.
| In the Klondike there is more than
the natural antipathy of the bad
man." for law and order as producer
| of outbreaks. Men who have been
there, say that the sectional feeling
between Canadians and Americans is
getting fiercer all the time, particular
ly since the recent passage of the
revenue laws by the dominion gov
eminent. There will certainly he
many attempts by the miners to sneak
across the boundary to avoid making
payments, and as the boundary lines
are still unsettled, this fact alone
opens up many avenues for disputes
which are certain to be settled by the
gun.
Dawson City is beyond the shadow
of doubt in Canadian territory as the
Washington government comedies it 70
be 100 miles east of the 141st meridian
which is the boundary line. There are
hundreds of claims, however. in close
proximity to the line and here is where
the mounted police will have the most
trouble. The differences between the
lines set by Washington and Canada
vary from 61S feet to 300 feet in the
gold district, and as the mounted po-
lice will of course, enforce the Cana
dian idea, and the Americans stand
like a rock up on the Washington idea.
! some pretty international scraps are
looked for by those who ought to know.
Canadas feeling towards the Amer
lean is quite clearly shown by the re-
cent utterances of dominion papers,

, favoring the exclusion of the American
miner in retaliation for our alien labol
law, and at the same time exulting in
the reputation of the mounted police
as killers.
AS the brunt of the whole trouble
will fall upon the shoulders of these
men, the mounted police will be the
dominating figures of interest in
the Klondike. One hundred and fifty
OF them and $50 horses have been sent
into the gold district and this numbe,
is counted upon to be sufficiently great
to quell any disturbance.
Three-fourths of the LOO men in
the service are well educated and
nicely reared, but they are not tender
feet by any means. Many of them are
the younger sons of English families
of political and social eminence, young
men who have gone the face of dis
sipation at tremendous gait and who
have adopted this heroic road to re-
form. Others have entered the SER
vice out of pure love of adventure AMI
have remained in it, fascinated by the
wild freedom and this rough life I'M
fettered by the conventionalties
That the force is an efficient one is
proved by the single fact that, small
as it is, it maintains the law in a ter
ritory of 100000 square miles, or from
the boundary line on the south to a
point 300 miles north and from the
east to the Rocky mountains. Now
it's limits have been extended so as to
include the Yukon mining fields.
The headquarters of the force is To-
Gated at Regina, but there are fourteen
stations scattered between the Rockies
and the east in charge of commissioned
officers of whom there are fifty-two in
all. There is fifteenth station now
being established in the kIondike re-
gion. In addition to these stations
there are innumerable shanties scat
tered over the entire country where
man and horse can seek shelter
at night. Many SIMILAR shanties are
now being built in the Klondike dis
trict as the men will be kept on the &c

that they'd taken her in and found
work for her somewhere"
1t was on bitter day in the winter
of 1867 that Mrs. Osborne hurrv;po
to her home through a by-street on
the West side, saw two girls budding
for shelter in doorway. Something
IN the aspect of the women, something
In the expression of their tear-worn
eyes as they looked out upon the driv-
ing rain, stopped her on her way. and
she turned back and spoke to them.
Their story was soon told. ~
I'VE are two sisters. Our home is in
Winston. Connecticut Our people are
poor. There was not enough food m
feed us all, and so we came to New
York to look for work. and didn't find
it. We are penniless and homeless and
are starving"
Within an hour the two women were
housed in Mrs. Osborne's home. With
in a week they had by her aid found
employment And out of her chance
meeting of these two women arose thu
thought that there were other sisters
in this city who might be in need as
desperate; that here was the possiBl-
ity of a work which might be carried
to an endless good. II will make this
work the object of my life." she said.
and never for a single instance in 20
years has she weakened in her purpose.
