From fhe Far North.

The Liberal News of few weeks
ago contained the following extracts
from letters received from members
of the "Mulligan" company now in
Alaska:
The Liberal Mining company is
now located about 10 miles out of
Circle City, Alaska. AS had been
anticipated the Mulligan mines at
Eagle City, proved to be something
like an optical illusion. Mulligan,
the 'feller" who would to rob the
boys, proved himself a fiat failure,
even to play the part of right good
villain, possessed no mines at Eagle
City and according to letter from
member of the company, "he took
midnight rowboat on Yukon-des-
tination unknown"
Dr.. Nichols in his letter to his
family in speaking of wages and
prices, says, a common laborer gets
S1oo per month and board. Flour
is S. per sack, fresh spuds IS cents
per pound; lemon pie, SI.as each;
cigars SO cents each; beer in pints,
81 each. Whiskey, quarts, So; bacon
80 cents per pound.
E. L. Cloud writes under the date
of July I4th, that the company had
purchased mining claims Nos. I, 2,
3 and 4 known as Pitka's Bar, To-
Gated about 10 miles from Circle
City. Until better transportation
can be secured the members of the
company are compelled to walk
from Circle City to their possessions.
1t seems the word for walking in
that land is "mushing." Speaking
of their walk Mr.. Cloud says: "On
the trip out each man was packed
with about SO or IS pounds and the
trip was rather tough. DR.. Nichols
and I returned to Circle City to
close the mining deal and we have
now walked or 'mushed' one hun
dred and forty miles. When we
reach our new headquarters we shall
have two hundred and ten miles to
our credit"
Pitka's Bar is a discovery made
by half breed Indian and the mines
which the company now possesses,
is the place where the first gold was
discovered. The letters report some
trouble with the mosquitoes, Mr..
Cloud says for fear of seeming ex-
ageration he shall not attempt to de-
scribe the nuisance. ALI the people
out there wear masks and at the
business houses and dwellings in the
towns and camps smudge is neces-
sary for the comfort of the citizens.
Newspapers and all mail matter is
scarce in that part of the world for a
paragraph in Mr.. Clouds letter says:
Bought two papers off the mail
boat last night. The first news we
had since leaving the outside. Paid
SO cents each for the papers. DR..
Nichols said he would give IS cents
for Liberal News and I'd go him
IS cents better" The letter con-
tinues, Sat first opportunity will
write an outline of our work. We
shall probably work two shifts-day
and night" All the boys are re-
ported in good health and are hope
full for brighter future.

Stilling's known wishes, no obituary
will appear. His distaste for such
