erected. There are five nice buildings
in the city OF a public nature. They
are the postoffice which is as big as
Phoenixs city hall. the administra-
ton building. the home of Governor
Condor OF Yukon territory, the head
quarters of the mounted police and the
barracks.
Though the population once num-
bered about 25.OO0 it is now estimated
at $4,000 and it is a far more cody
citizenship than many might suppose.
There are four good church buildings
owned by the Methodist. Baptist, Pres
byterian and Church of England de
nominations and all are well attended
at Sunday services. The Salvation
army also has a nice building and does
a deal of good work for the poor miners
who find tbs mselves broke and hungry
and often secure food and shelter there.
The people in the main, says Mr..
Shultz. are about the best dressed of
any town of the size he ever saw.
They seem TO take pride in fine
clothes.
The banking interest OF the city are
carried on by the British North Amer
lean bank which has one of the very
few stone buildings in the city. and
Canadian Bank of Commerce.
Baseball seems to be the farorite
sport notwithstanding it is an Amer
lean game. Mr.. Shultz says he has
witnessed just as good games there as
he ever saw in either Los Angeles or
San Francisco. Last season compet-
ing teams came from E,ag,s, White
horse and even Skagway.
Dawson has lost its frontier appear
ance in nearly everything except that
prices are still necessarily high and
twenty-five cent piece * the smallest
money in circulation. The saloons are
closed Sundays and gambling has been
done away with entirely except the
games carried on privately in the club
rooms.

DAWSON CITY OF TODAY
Contrast Between Social Conditions
Of the Past and the Present.

D. H Shultz whose return from
Dawson City was chronicled a few
days ago. and who was also there in
the early days of the camp, in de
scribing social conditions gives an idea
of the city widely different from the
conception most people have of it.
In the first year of its fame it was
muddy swampy sort of d place. gamn-
ling was for large stakes and widely
carried on and it had many of the
usual earmarks OF the frontier town.
He says though that it was never so
rough as frontier towns OF the same
kind in this country. owing to the
organization and vigilance of the
mounted police and even in the wild
days the saloons were closed on sun
day.
But the Dawson Of today is an entire
~ different place from the Dawson of
i've or six years ago. Most of the
streets are graded and well kept and
since the fire that destroyed so many
Of the log houses. attractive and much
better buildings of frame have been

KNEW HE WAS SMART"

Lord Brampton tells the following
story of the days before he became MI.
Justice Hawkins. His first brief was to
defend one of two men charged with
coming. and when they were placed in
the dock he overheard O. brief colloquy
between them. Coiner No. ] told his
comrade that he was to b2 defended

The Curtiss company at Eastlalle

one-act plays and reversl interesting
sDecialties Owing to slight accident

critics. which had to be replaced from
town. the good natured audience was
obliged T. wait for fifteen minutes for
the openirg of the performance. How
ever things went merrily along when
c,ce started. The play, A Happy
Pair i. ore OF the gems of short
dramatic con position, and gave Miss
Periue an opportunity to demonstrate
anew her charming command of comedy
and pathos admirably blended. Her
performance of the role of Constance
was highly artistic throughout and her
dancing and singing bitter in the even
ing was also much enjoyed. Harry
Wolff appear ed in Il dutch monolo3us
which created much laughter and the
performance ended with an extremely
funny farce entitled "Chiseling.' Jas
Thompson as the living statue was
ludtcruusly funny. Miss Cummings as
MS Ripper and Arthur Hill as Lark
spar. the sculptor, furnished a great
deal of fun for the audience.
The bill has been especially prepared
in a short form to give plenty OF time
for the Tuesday and Wednesday night
dances which this week promise to be
record breakers en- account of the
large influx of visitors for the caIni-

\ ROYAL QUICK CHANGE.

An English prince. the Duke of Con

THE NATIVE AMERICAN
An Eastern Man Who Thinks Well of
Arizona Indians.

2 Mr.. George W. Brokaw, OF Lodi, n.
Y, thus writes to. Rev. DR.. Halsey:
II thank you for the commence
ment number of the. Native American.
I had not realized that so much had
been done for the Indians. When I
was in Chicago in 1898 I took "a great
interest in the base ball games and
band music OF the Indians, anG learned
that they were equal to; tho white
race in natural ability. I also noticed
the same fact when l visited the, Pan
American exhibition in Buffalo.
II! have always felt a great interest
in the Indians since the time when as

TROOPS IN READINESS.

While the administration has denied
that troops have been ordered to the is
thmus, thegeneral staff, Notwithstanding
has fully prepared for any emergency
which may arisein that part of the world
The announcement from Colombia thata
large army is to be raised and marched
into the new Republicof of Panama has not
surprised the officials in Washington.
For sometime past this move has been
expected and preparations made to meet
it.
The treaty obligations Of the United
States compel this country to protect aud
keep open for traffic the Panama Rail
way, and, should it be necessary to send
troops there to carry out these treaty OBJ
ligatiOus, the United States will be found
ready to act.
Some days ago it was announced that
the transport kearney, now at New York
would be unable to leave that port on ac-
count of repairs being made TO her boil
ers. This w..s,'a good official reason, but
it is an open secret in army circles that
the Kearney is being held at New York
in readiness to transport troops TO Colon
at any moment.
While orders have not been issued for
any regiment to start for Panama, the
general staff has selected two regiments
and placed them under waiting orders.
The Ninth Infantry, now stationed at
Fort Madison, New York, is one of
those selected, it being the regiment
that participated in the relief of Peking,
after the capture of TientsiD, where
Colonel Liscum was killed. The other
regiment selected is the Sixteenth In
fantry, part of which is stationed at
Fort Slocum, New York, and the other
part at Fort Mcpherson, Georgia. One
battery of artillery is also held in wait
ing for this expedition. This is the
Twenty-eighth Mounted Battery, now
stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.
A decree was issued at Cartagena
November 16, setting forth that no
steamers shall be allowed to clear from
Cartagena for Colon or enter Cartagena
coming from Colon. All the foreign
consuls and steamship agents at Carta-
gena have protested, without effect,
against the decree.
Emperor William has directed the
German authorities to officially recognize
the republic of Panama. An announce
ment of the recognition Of the new State
is expected daily.
1t is believed in Washington that,
aside from a proposition for Panama to
assume part Of the Colombian foreign
debt, Gen. Reyes main purpose is to
advance the suggestion that the capital
of Colombia be transferred to the city oi
Panama. This is equivalent to the an
nexation of Colombia by Panama. The
opinion in official circles here is that,
though fattering, the proposition will
be rejected by the Panama commission
ers if for no other reason than because
through sheer weight of numbers the
Colombians soon would control the ad-
ministration of the reunited republic
and the situation as to Panama would
be as it was before the revolution and
separation.

FIGHT IN PIT. Fifty Irishmen
and 45 Italians fought in a fierce riot
for almost an hour yesterday afternoon
80 feet below the level of Broadway and
Twenty-ninth street, New York, where
the Fuller Construction Company Is
making excavations for the erection OF
a sky-scraper. Pickaxes, shoSeis and
sledges were used in the fight, and when
the police finally lowered themselves by
chains among the fighting mass Of men
and succeeded in quelling the riot many
of the men were bleeding and torn. As
the fight proceeded, before the police
reached the scene, citizens lined the
walls about the excavations and hurled
rocks and stones among tie warring
faction below. Many OF the missiles
went true to the mark, and many heads
were struck. According to Foreman
John Kennedy, the fight started over a
misunderstanding resulting from his
orders to the two Vito brothers. The
men rebelled at the orders, and one OF
them, seizing a shovel, started toward
Kennedy. From these men the fight
spread, the Italians taking sides with the
Vito brothers, and the Irish backing up
their representative, Kennedy. After
the police had stopped the riot five per-
sons were removed to hospitals badly
injured, and twice that number were
taken to their homes more or less scri-
ously hurt.
