All Doctors have tried to cure Ca

The I. F. Chandler Crate and Basket
Factory Described One Thousand
Crates per Cay its Capacity.

Crates per Cay its Capacity.
The busiest place in Southern
Pines at the present time, is the
crate and basket factory OF |. f..
Chandler. Another week or two
will usher in the shipping season
and Mr.. Chandler is prepared to
meet the demand it will create
for his product. With the force
now at work the daily output is
about $50 crates complete, which
includes about 5000 baskets.
The capacity of the plant is about
1000 crates per day, baskets in
cluded; but by getting an early
start, $50 crates per day is suffic-
lent to meet the demands of the
trade. A large portion of this sea-
sons. supply delivered. Including
there is stock on hand Of complete
crates of about $4,000; and finished
material enough ior 10000 more.
At present force of 50 hands
is employed in making up this
material and getting out new.
Poplar and sweet gum are the
woods used principally and give
satisfaction. The crates, except
the end frames which are mortised
with Xxi inch stuff, are all made
of ! inch stock; peach baskets are
made of stock cut 16 layers to the
inch, grape baskets, 16to 70 layers
to the inch and berry baskets are
all made of stock cut % layers to
the inch. Peach baskets are
made to hold 4 quarts, 6 baskets
to the crate; grape baskets to hold
II pounds, 8 baskets to the crate;
berry baskets to hold | quart, 81
baskets to the crate, or 16 baskets
to the half-crate. Mr.. Chandler
puts these GRATIS, complete, on the
market at Is cents each, except
the 80 basket berry crate, which
sells for 25 cents.
At these prices the shipper can at
ford ,asis now customary, to provide
new crates always, as they cost less
than the trouble and expense of
returning and repairing old ones.
This practice is now entirely
abandoned, as both shippers and
commission merchants find that
fruit sells to best advantage when
packed in neat, clean looking
crates.

Passengers who came from Dawson on the Flora and arrived on last night train tell of a very close call from de,- truction that the little craft had at Five Fingers while attempting to line through.
 When she arrived at Five Fingers and picked mp the cable it was noticed that it lay in a very peculiar position but Captain MartineauX determined to risk 1t and started 10 line through.
 Just half way up through the rapids the cable showed that it was fast Co something oA the bottom and further strain would pull the little steamer un- der. Already under the heavy strain the Flora's bow was wIIer the water.
 Captain MartineauN gave orders Co cut the cable but at that moment it separated and the Flora swung down through the rapids uninjured.
 There was not a cable aboard SO she was compelled to wait forty hours for the arrival oi the White Horse. which laid a new cable
 It seems that the trotNle was caused by the cable being caught under a rock after it had been cast of by the last steamer to go through.
 So far this season no accidents have occurred at Five Fingers. although tlie Zealandian had a very narrow escape going broadside down the center chan nel

Mr. Haraden remained but six days ai the Klondike metrop- oils. but affairs are SO sharply defined in the interior, that he was afforded ample time to obtain a clean-cut idea of commercial conditions. Dawson is now glutted with merchandise and as a consequence some staple articles are selling way below cost.
