the rapids. On the morning of July we,
I left White Horse Rapids for Cassiar Bar,
distance OF 120 miles, and made the
run in twelve hours. the fastest time
made during the entire cruise. We towed
the scows across Lake La Barge 10 a
portion of the Yukon known as Thirty
Mile River-known as such on account OF
a strip of exceedingly swift current
thirty miles.
I'VE ran the yacht through Thirty Mile
River in two hours and twenty nine min
utes. When half way through We saw
the steamer Governor Pingree fast on a
bar. A Mr.. Heinz, of Cleveland. got off
the steamer and went down with us on
the yacht to Cassiar Bar. We arrived at
Cassiar Bar on the night OF July 2, at
1890 O'Clock, and despite the iateness OF
the hour, it was still daylight.
I'VE cruised around Cassiar Bar until
July is. when we started for Stewart
River. distance of 225 miles. We ran
seventy-fv miles the first afternoon. We
then ran through Five Finger Rapids
and the Rink Rapids. and at 1880 o'clock
the next morning found ourselves hard
aground We did not get off until IL
o'clock the following morning. We had
disabled our propeller and drifted down
the river a mile. where we landed. We
rugged up a tackle and raised the stern
and put on new propeller.
ION July 81 we passed Fort Selkirk. an
old Hudson Bay trading post. We ran
forty miles below Fort Selkirk and tied
up. The next day We ran to Stewart City.
at the mouth of the Stewart River. which
comes into the Yukon above Dawson City.
The following three days were occupied
in running up the Stewart River a dis
tance of 40 miles, to the mouth of the
McQuesten River.
I'VE stayed there two days. and on July
% ran down the Stewart River. 80 miles,
tying up for the night at Rosebud Creek.
The following day continued on our
cruise down the river. stopping long
enough to run some lines across the river
for a log boom for n logging company.
We then left Stewart City and ran to
Dawson, 70 miles distant, where we re-
mained three days.
'.Op August we ran up stream from
Dawson to Indian River. and tied up there
for a week On August 10 we left for Cas-
star Bar, a distance of $40 .,iles. equal to
900 miles in still water. We then cruised
up and down the river in the Immediate
vicinity of Cassiar Bar. until September

The making up of the teeth is compare

The use OF color is always essential. In

The reason is very simple.
In real life the light falls from above:
on the stage it alway= comes from below.
IN addition, artificial light is never pure

But the Young Peoples Union. after
gaining an opera house and arousing
dramatic enthusiasm in Concord, seems
to have died out. However, during the
twenty-five years that followed the opera
house has secured its share OF fine pre-

Eaton's box-offce book are those of Mary
Anderson. Clara Morris. Janauschek. Sol
Smith Russell. Joseph Jefferson James

are Henry Ward Beecher. George Kennan,

" HE Oldest ticket-taker in the coun-

of Whites Opera House at Con-
cord, N II. Mr.. Joseph c. Eaton,
who is special policeman as well as re-
ceiver OF tickets. has been serving in that
capacity for over a quarter OF a century,
and is now seventy-nine years old. All
the people In Concord know him, and
most o. them call him Uncle Joe"
He was born at Reading, Mass, went to
Concord wheE a young man and entered
the Albeit Downing Carriage Works as
engineer. IL was there that the Concord
coach" famous in the days of overland
trips to the Pacific Coast, was made, and
the business is one of the Oldest and larg

shop were at work when Uncle Joe" en-
tered its doors fifty years ago. He is his
"own boss" and says with pride:
During the fifty years ] have worked
there never had a cross word spoken TO
me. That speaks pretty well for the
firm
Whites Opera House was opened In
1875 and Mr. Eaton has been associated
with IL ever since its beginning. His
kindly face is familiar TO all its audi
enoes, and his quiet commands are always
respected In spite Of the fact that his
duties at the theater keep him up until
nearly midnight, he continues to rise at
6 O'Clock every morning and go TO the
shop as II no other duty filed his time.
The May festival, which occurs on the
14th. is one of the institutions of Con-
cord, and the musical talent of the State
of New Hampshire is united to furnish
fits attractions. Mr.. Eaton has taken
tickets al this festival ever since II was
first celebrated. and this year is the
thirty second of his service in that Ca
pacity.
The story which Uncle Joe" tells OF the
beginnings OF the theate- with which he
has been SO closely associated is some
what curious. In 1873 or thereabouts a
local society, called the Young Peoples
Union, was started. and gave a series OF

lay there all day. The following day was
Sunday. and in the afternoon we took two
pilots aboard and left our landing and
ran through the famous Miles Canyon
and White Horse Rapids.
Miles Canyon is five e-eighths of a mile
long and 100 feet wide, with perpendicu-

current is fifteen miles an hour. White
Horse Rapids is three -eighths of q mile
long and 800 feet wide, narrowing in
width to 100 feet. The current is also
fifteen miles an hour, and very dangerous
waters. From the head of Miles Canyon
to the foot of White Horse Rapids the
distance is five and one-eighth miles. We
went through both the canyon and the
rapids in fine shape, but got thoroughly
wet. We made the five and one eighth
miles in exactly twenty minutes. and only
ran the engine one and one-half miles.
Half mile below White Horse Rapids
