The hotels along the trail to Dawson afford glow Of comfort 10 the weary traveller this winter All of the dlSeom- forts Of preceding winters have been ellm- mated. They are well appointed, cleanly kept. and the fare Is bounliful and excel lent. The Selklrk hotel and the Stewart River hotel are especially praised by the out-coming travellers. The Stew rt River hotel, including the toilet rooms, Is heated throughout, and the stable Is also kept warm with big wood burner. This ho- tel also has Jersey COW, so that travellers at least find one respite from condensed cream.
 Many of the stable, along the line are equipped with stoves, and all of them are now floOred. Heretofore horses stood in their stalls to keep their bodies off the frosty ground. The tired stotk now lies down in comfort. MlcKay's Post, that was much dreaded last winter by those who were obliged to stop there, Is now In The hands of Capt.

NEVER RETURN
A One Way Stage Is Q Novelty of tho
 Dawson Trail.

Messrs. Robertson & Keys, propretors of the Dawson and White Horse stage line have a unique method of eonductlng the carrier business. They carry passengers from white Horse to Dawson whenever the traffic demands, but do not make a re- turn trip. Mr. Robertson Is the proprietor of large sales stable at Dawson and Is an extensive importer of high-class well broke6 teams, which he sells on the Daw' son market.
 As fast as his teams are unloaded a; Skagway they are shipped on to White Horse. Whenever one of his stages leave for Dawson team Is taken from the stage stable and Is left at Lower La Barge, his first relay station. A fresh team Is taken from there 10 Stewart river. where the horses are again charged. In this way his horses are worked into Dawson. The stages are there either sold or set aside un- til spring when they. will be broken up and the irons In them shipped back as fit tlngs for new stages. The travel this year prefers open stages owing to feeling of peculiar danger incident to confinement in enclosed sleighs in the event of accident. Mr. Robertson has. therefore, had covers cached along the way to use in case oi storm and will use open stages. He has extra stages at all the roadhouses to use in case of breakdowns, and has made ar engagements for stock all along the way 10 replace any of his horses that may meet with an accident.

The lat ter price maintains at Dawson. Oats sell at figure only slightly In advance of the price of hay. as transportation cuts more of a figure in it's value than the original cost, and is, moreover, easier handled than hay.
