Have fragrant blossoms. Many others are fragrant only when crushed.
 There is one which is fragrant in bloom and fragrant also when its npcncd fruit is crushed and made into a drink. We know it as coffee.
 To enjoy the most delicious fra- grance of coffee in its highest state of perfection you should buy what you are sure is coffee, pure and simple, without any adulteraton.
 Chase x Sanborn's Coffee is a pure coffee. What is more, it is the best coffee that can be raised by e:E erienced planters. Furthermore every bean is selected and the same care is maintained in roasting and packing, until it reaches the con Sumers' hands.
 Because it is pure it is healthiul and the price at which it sells is so little in advance of cheaper grades that one stops and wonders why any one should not always have Chase & Sanbom's Seal Brand Coffee, or any one of their high grade brands which come in parch- ment lined colored bags.

The last of the three stern wheelerS which Capt Waldo has been building at White Horse was slid into the water last Thursday evening The launch was m every was successful and at it's com plction Capt Waldo was rendered d small ovation SO well pleased was everybody Co see him get his task done in contract time.
 Miss Tachc, one of the most poPu- lar bellies in the city and daughter of Engineer Tachc of the board of public works. christencd the steamer White Horse as she started for her future element
 The launch vas witnessed by F.. C. Hawkins. general manager of the White Pass & Yukon Company which owns the three boats. w. D. HohuS. oi w. D. Hohus & Co.,. who had the contract for the constructions: Capt. Waldo, who Superintended the work; F.. r. Pope, of this city and nearly all of the population of the town.
 The White Horse is beyond doubt the finest equipped steamer on the up per or lower Yukon river She is in tended Co be used almost exclusively for passengers. She is of the same d. mcnsionS as the other two-I65 icct long and 34 feet beam-but is far better appointed m every respect
 Mr. Pope says the launch was Ice most successful one he ever witnessed and speaks in very complimentary terms of the vessel. He says she h,, the best lines and the most graceful ap- pcarancc of any Sternwheeler he ever saw.
 These steamers draw only sixteen inches of water and are considered as being of a very practical type for scr. vice on the upper Yukon river The White Horse has a Texas while the other boats have not She is also adorned with considerable fancy wood. work.

GAMBLING STOPPED
 AT WHITE HORSE
The Town Has Been Closed By An Edct of the Mounted Police and There Is Deep Sorrow Among the
 Members of the Sporting Fraternity There

blcrs had been expecting it and were pot much surprised They did not cx pcct Co be treated any better than the gamblers of Dawson who, for some time past have been under notice Co shut down gambling by the first o' June
 The new order of things will make considerable difference Co the town. but of the exact nature there is a diff ference of opinion Some say it will cause noticeable decrease in the cir. .culation of money. A large number oi we'll paid employees of gambling houses will be ont of jobs and the fiber al patronage which these men bestow- ed upon the different merchants of the town will be missed. Another contcn- ton is that the men out of whom the gaming houses make their profits will have more money in their pockets when they cannot find ready chances Co gamble it away. and that it will all. or nearly an. go into the channels of legitimate trade. It is also cor. tended that a lot of the capital tied up in the gambling enterprises will now be available for the development of more worthy schemes.
 Whatever the result the right of the police m acting as they have done can. not be questioned for a moment. Gam. bling is a violation of common law and those who follow it must accept the inevitable gracefully or otherwise.
 In justice to the owners of the differ cnt gaming resorts. it must be said that their games were conducted lon the square" They had their per centage' and were content with them. In this respect White Horse has had a much better deal from the gamblers than most towns where the fraternity are allowed a license.
