WANT MEN
Atlin Asks for Miners, Cant
 Get Them,

Again che report come, from Atlin that men are wanted there to work in the mines. A telegram from R. F. Fcathcrs,onchaugh to John L. Gage of thi, city received yesterday states that he could give work to 2jO men at ;25o per day and board.
 However it will be out of the question Co secure men for Atlin at this time. as there is absolutely no way for any one Co reach that camp now and there will be no way odo so until after che opening of the lakes fornavigation.
 Even if men could get to Atlin at this time it is not likely that many laborer, could be secured in Skagway at s2 50pcr day. The railroad company has had dimculy at times this spring to got section men at even higher rate than chat offered by Mir. Feather ,.1nchmgh.

SOLID
Lake Ll Barge Ice Will
 Stnd Many Days.

There is still no sight Of the weaken ing of the ice in Lake La Barge, and there is no abatement in the amount of freight that is moving across the lake down to the steamers and scows beyond, that are awaiting the word that there is an open river between them and Dawson. The ice in che laSt is five feet thick, and as firm as the rock bound shore. Many of those who have been on the lake the last few days are free to predict that it will be June 10 before it will be possible for steamers to pas, through the lake. Others think it will not be so long They say that as soon as the water begins Co raise in the lakes the ice will soon go topiecc-.

THE FACTS
Particulars of Drowning of
 Patsy Hughes.

Sid MonaStes, who arrived on the Vira Rial from Haines, brings the par ticulars of the drowning of Patsy Hughes last Saturday in the Endlkoot river opposite Berners bay and about 5j miles south of Skagway.
 Patsy Hughes and I. N. Stephenson, both we'll known in Alaska, had been up the Endikoot river prospecting for gold. They had not been successful and started down the river in boat on their return trip to Juneau. When a few miles from the mouth of the river the boat struck a snag, and Hughes was thrown out. The boat stuck a while. and it became evident to Stephen son that it vas done for, so he just had time Co throw the guns, Of which they had two rifles and a shotgun, out on the shore, before the boat parted He grabbed a limb Of tree that was hang ing over the river and pulled himself over on the shore He lost sight of Hughes as he was carried around the next bend in the river below him. As soon as he got ashore, Stephenson ran down the river Co where he last saw Hughes, but he had gone down.
 As soon as he determined that Hughes had drowned, Stephenson went on down to the mouth of the river ut which place he found some Indians, with whom he made a bargain to go up the river and search for the body. The corpse was found on a bar some distance below the place of the accident.
 One of the rifles which was recovered was given to the Indians to take the body to Hdines, where an inquest was held Monday afternoon. The jury de- cided that the cause of death was acci- dental drowning.
 Patsy Hughes was au old time Alaskan prospector and miner. Steph- enson had not been in the district as long, but is we'll and favorably known at Juneau

crowded on Good Friday evening, many
standing up and a hundred or more
being turned away at the doors because
there was no room left inside. The
occasion was the singing of the Pas
sion music composed by Gaul, by a
chorus consisting of the regular church
choir and a considerable number of
singers from other local choirs, being
really a picked chorus of the best in
the city. Organist Frederic Dunster
had been at work for long time on
the rehearsals, and the result was sing
ing that could not but be in the nature
of an uplift to those privileged to lis
ten. The music is divided into, six
parts-"The Traitor at the TIA bic, -
THE Denial in the Palace" ''The IN
just Condemnation" The Mockery on
Calvary" 1.-The Shadow of DEATH and
THE Holy Sepulchre," each with its
arrangement of solos, recitarive and
chorus parts. The solo parts.were sung
by Harry F. Merrill of Portland, who
is generally acknowledged to be the
premier baritone singer of Maine,t and
by Miss Sarah Miller, Miss Elizabeth
Noble, Miss Georgia Clark, ]. Frank
Dyer, w. p. Doughty, G. e. Marstort
A. A.. Clark and Harry p. Lowell of
Augusta. The music takes a long times
more than two hours, in the singing,
but not a person turned away till the
last note, had died and the benedioton
had been pronounced. The final piece
was sung as memorial to the mem
bers of the parish, who died during the
winter, the rector and audience stand
ing while it was being sung.

CHINESE LEADER DEAD.
Lung Lu, Controller of the Finances,
Has Passed Away.

Pekin, April 10.-Yung Lu, the con-
troller of finances and first grand sec
rotary, is dead. He had been suffering
for some time past from dropsy.
Yung Lu was a Manchu and at the
time of the beginning of the Boxer out
break was of the province of Pc Chi
Ii and generalissimo of the Chinese
army. He was then said to be the
most powerful man in China, his in
f1tience being even greater than that
of Ii Hung Chang.
Yung Lu was said to be the real au-
thor of the anti-foreign outbreak in
Pekin and Tientsin and he commanded
the best disciplined troops which OPP
posed the allies.
