WHY LIGHTS ARE OUT.

Supt. Harry Wallace of the city
light plant str ties that the reason so
many lights were reported out at
the meeting of tine council last
night is that the wires break at mig ht
and the breaks cannot be located I'M
til the next day, and in the meantime
whole circuits are out. In bad wealth
er there are always more or less lights

one Of the Oldest and best towbost pi.

The Carrsville correspondent Of the
SmithlaDd Courier says; Captain Joe
Harmon left the wharf Friday at $3.50
in a skiff with four passengers for Pa
ducah. He returned Saturday morning
at 80, bringing three passengers back
with him, making the round trip In
2e hours. This certainly beats the

The big towboat Sprague, which IL
below Helena on her way to New Or
leans to go on the docks, has 5000
horsepower. The other largest tow
boats on the rivers, the Joseph b.
Williams and the ]. b. Finley, have
each !, 500 and 1900 horsepower, res
pectively, so that one can Judge what
the power of the spraRue is. Most
rivermen cling to the opinion that the
Sprague is too large; that she will not
do much more down stream work thar
the present day towboats, but that She
will do good upstream work. In times
OF low water. rivermen say that the
Sprague will not be able to handle bis
tows in the lower bends. II will take
time to demonstrate the points Of dill
erence.

Wireless Te1egraphy,

Alaska and the United States are to be more closely united bv means of wireless telegraphy. The Marconi company is to put in q wireless service connecting Valdez with Seattle, thus making an all- American telegraph system, which, when the Nome line is finished, will connect that place and all Yu- kon river points with the States.
 It is intended to install a com plete plant. probably on Hinchin- brook island. and that will be con nected with Valdez by d combina- tion of wireless and regular tcle- raph systems.
 The rates will naturally be lower than those of the cable and land lines because of the cheapness of installation and maintenance.

First Outfit To Interior.

The first outfit of the season to leave this place for the interior rior started for the Nizina yester- day morning. The party consist ed of Jno. J. Van Idcrstine. J. X. Stewart, Pat Keys and Billy Bea. ton, and their destination is Dan and Chittitu creeks in the Nizina country. Thoy had A dogs and six sleds, and n large outfit of pro- visions and tools. Chester John son and Shorty Codiga will assist them to the summit with their l2 dogs.
 The party goes in to prospect some ground on the above named creeks which the gentlemen have bonded from Chas. Koppus. Pat Keys will remain until next fall and the other gentlemen will re- turn in February for more provis- ions and tools.
 This is earlier than usual for starting for the interior, and the party will have q hard trip. as they will probably be compelled to break trail a good part of the dis tance.
 Now that one party has started there is no doubt hut that every few days other parties will start. Everyone is calculating on long season this year, and there is no daubt at all but that more pros pecting and mining will be done this year than ever before. and in few weeks the trails will be crow ded with prospectors and their outfits.

Va1dezians in Few York.

Valdez has quite a representa- tion in New York. and they are do- ing good work for this country.

Meenach, Al Soule and others. McNeer and Herman are making a hit by pre- tending to be such old timers that they have forgotten English and talk mostly in Siwash, and the newspaper reporters look upon them as great personages.
