The Queer Dunkards.
The Dunkards are one of the most
peculiar religious sects in the country.
Their name Is properly Thinkers and IL
derived from the German word funk
en-, to dip. They are also called Tum.
blers from their method Of baptism,
which is to put the person, while kneel-
ing. head first under the water. The
sect was founded in Germany in the
seventeenth century, but its members
were prosecuted and in 1725 accepted
IN invitation from William Penn to set
tie in Pennsylvania. They live largely
In communities and follow somewhat
closely the customs Of the Quakers In
segard to dress.
They never engage in lawsuits, take
NO oaths and no active part in politics.
They do not believe in wan and divorce
is unknown among them. Twice year
each congregation has a love FEAST In
which the members wash each Others
feet and salute each other with the kiss
Of fellowship. men kissing men, and
women women. Until recently the tax.
ing Of interest for money loaned was
not allowed among them. They are an
agricultural people. and as Pennsylva.
mia and the other eastern states have
become more thickly settled the Dun
kards have gradually removed to more
western states. Washington Post

he opened the front door with some
difficulty and softly toiled up the stairs

He dropped into chair, and, with
out taking off his coat or hat, began to

he took off the other it slipped out Of

seows laden with feed. disposed of their
stock but not al the high prices they had
anticipated. The big company had short
" before put its reserve stock on the
market.
J, Ford, who recently arrived from
Dawson, leaving there Nav 20, reports
that the first steamer and scows to get to
that city just before he left, brought in
vegetables, meats and other perishables,
and materially relieved the situation. He
says meats especially had become scarce,
and that the price had gone as high as
SI.25 for beef and mutton. Cattle were
taken down the river on hoof on the first
craft from LaBarge.
The Dawson Daily News of Nav IS,
says:
Meat market men report that the sup
plv of beef and pork is getting limited and
unless some one arrives soon from The out
side Dawson will suffer fresh meat fam
inc. Beef has advanced to IS cents whole
sale, although the retail price still remains
the same as last week, Pork, although
scarce, also shows no change in quota
tions.
Mutton is out of the market temporarily,
a large shipment being expected in just as
soon as the upper lakes open.
Caribou and moose are also thing of
the past for this season, and what there is,
is being held by consumers and in conse-
quence is not on sale. Hams have taken
drop from IS cents retail to S. and 70
cents and stil further decline is antici-
pated.
Fresh fish are hard to procure. 1t Is
little too early for Crawling to make their
appearance in sufficient quantity to become
a market commodity, while the supply of
halibut has been exhausted. Fresh clans
are also gone tut there is plentiful sup
ply of oysters, both eastern and Olympia.
"Game has again made its appearance,
ducks and grouse being brought in by
hunters in fairly good supply. Mallards
are selling at SI2 per dozen while teal only
bring half that amount. Grouse are also
selling at SI2 per dozen. Several boxes of
dressed chickens reached town yesterday
on scows and they are wholesaling at $I.25
and retailing at $3.50 per pound"
The News also states that the arrival
OF the steamers that had gotten in from up
the river since the opening of navigation
had had noticeable effect on the market.
Nearly the entire cargo of the Florence S
comprised eggs, butter, ham, bacon and
oysters, while the Flora brought five tons
of butter, eggs and fruit. the rest of her
cargo being hay, grain and personal effects.
Several scows have reached Dawson
with similar cargoes. Three hundred
cases of eggs arrived in one day thus re-
ieving egg shortage. No doubt there will

Supplies Were Scarce.

A great deal of freight now being taken
into Dawson and rushed through on scoWs
steamers and everv other conceivable way
comprises stocks of perishabe supplies of
which there is supposed to be, and in
many cases there is ready market. Num-
erous traders and spectators are stalking
their small fortunes on the market that
awaits them in the big gold camp and are
doggedly working their way forward with
hopes of profit in the end. To their and
others indirectly concerned much interest
Is taken in the Dawson market situation,
of which little was heard during the long
interval while the river was breaking
The Dawson market according to ad-
vices brought out by late arrivals and
papers of that city, Is now well stocked
with hav and other lines of goods of which
there was, or was supposed to be a short,
age the latter part of the winter How
ever, there Is no certainty, it appears as to
the supply of meats in the market,
1t was understood for time that there
was big shortage of feed but 1t now
seems that there never was such short
age, but that one OF the big trading COM
panies was we'll stocked with feed, and
that when it appeared as though tine near
approach of the opening Of navigation
would make it possible for manv to rush
in with new supplies, the company then
brought forth its reserve stock, and feed
sold for IL Ia cents per pound. 1t was
