TO COUNT THE INDIANS
Difficulties In tho Cook Inlet, Copper River and Other SpArsoly Settled
 Portions of Southoastorn Alaska
 Extent of Data to Be Collected.

An interesting review of the work of taking the twelfth United States census of all ;he vast territory of Alaska south of the Yukon watershed Is given by w. A, Kelly, superintendent of the census for this district, who has been visiting Skagway this week. Mr, Kelly says:
 "lt wlll cost Uncle Samuel s3o,ooo to complete the enumeration in my district. cover all that Is known as western and southeastern Alaska. and do the work with the assistance of 2S enumeFatorS and one assistant superintendent.
 "The most difficult work will probably be In the Copper river country. and for travelling in that district the war depart ment will furnish us with horses from the expedition sent to Valdez under Capt, Abercromble 10 build the Alaskan tele- graph line to the interior.
 "The difficulty of the work IS enhanced through the fact that we have to secure data about every Indian as we'll as every white. and the sparSely settled condition Of the Copper river country only makes it harder to get from plate tO place there. Wolk there will begin about the middle of June. The Copper river country will also be enumerated in the summer.
 "lhe enumeration of the Cook Inlet country has been begun, The enumerator now i j!t'i6s js!t6'i6s 'fOtk pI!esr'to' priee'wIdi-'d6S teams. The coast work there will be done later.
 "The work of enumerating in South> eastern Alaska has begun in all the sub districts save Halnes, and will be com ple,ei by June [. The work of taking Hainss and Porcupine has been postponed until more of the miners return from the outside.
 "The enumeratorS have all been appoint ed from the ranks of attorneys, newspaper men and school teachers, and ! think have selected a superior class of men for the work, and men who are atable and courteous as we'll as intelligent and edu- cated.
 Information gathered by the enumeratots includes everything from statistics concern ing the life of each person In the district the property owned by each, general data as to timber, mineral resources. fisheries eanneries and the like. The personal records will also include that of each and every Chinese employed in the various salmon eanneries of the coast"

SUIT AGAINST KINNEY
Small Loses as His Claim Was
 Against Chilkoot Tunnel Co.

D. W, Small, who sued L. b. Kinney, financial agent foi the Chilkoot Tunnel Company, for S2so for packing goods from Dyea to the summit last fall, failed to get judgment. The case was heard yesterday at Dyei by Judge Sehlbreie without a lurv. and decided in favor of defendant.
 ltWaS not questioned that Small packed the goods, but the point of contention by Small was that Kinney was personally liable for the contract for the service, and this he failed Co establish.
 |, appears that Kinney when he made ;he contract with Small made it as agent for the company, and that the company and not Kinney should be liable. Small hli a -aim Of $Iooo against Kinney, bu, in orda ,S set the suit within the juLisdS- n it,eB s7so Of the claim, and tried the matter for the remaining S2So, and then lost the issue.
 Attorney Dlv, Of Sk1gwav, was attor' nev for the defendant, and Il. Julius Miller tor the plaintiff.

said, practicable wagon road might be
made from the Pacific ocean through ali
the mountain ranges to Lake Manuel
Huapi, by far the largest lake in the
southern part of South America. and en-
TO the Atlantic ocean II became known
as the Bariloche Pass. In those days IL
was thought that no good would ever
come out of Patagonia. Very few ex-
plorers or other white men visited this
region and Father Menendez's discovery,
though utilized for a time. was almost
forgotten till some 20 years ago when
ranch men began to move down to the
neighborhood of Lake Manuel Huapi
and found the grass was good and other
crops might be raised. Then citizens
of Chile and Argentine began 20 look
around for this pass in the mountains.
and although they sought diligently they
failed to find it.
The description which the pioneer
priest had given Of his important dis
covery was unfortunately very vague
and painfully lacking in detail. and
hunting for the pass in that rough and
tangled mountain region was a good
deal like looking for a needle in a hay
stack Finally the official explorers
whom Argentine and Chile have long
kept in the field began to take a hand
in the search They used their utmost
care. but all in vain until this late day.
