have license to shoot and kill each other whenever the spirit moves. The indig- nifty put upon Signor Tolretto was a'- most as reprehensible as was the arl' st If the Georgia Colonel for merely ill., ,ng the negro postmaster who refu ,ed to lend him postage stamp.
 F. A. Henderson. until recently con- nected with the Tacoma News, has been appointed deputy clerk of the U. $. court at Valdez, by Judge Wicker sham--prObably for the reason that there is no resident of Valdez who is capable and wishing to discharge the duties of the office.
 Complaints having been made to the missionary board that Rev. H. P. Cor ser, of Wrangell, was not giving satis- faction, a petition asking that he be re- tained. was circulated, and the Sentinel says the looks of the signatures indi- cate the reverend gentleman will be apt to hold the fort.
 Hiram $. Trimbe, veteran of the civil war, was found dead in his boat at Wrangell, on the 24th ut. The cause of death was ascribed by a coroner's jury to hemorrhage of the lungs. He had just made Wrangell harbor in his sloOp in one of the worst squalls known at Wrangell for some years, and the suppOsition is that over-eXertion caused the hemorrhage, as he was found seated in the pit of his sloop.
 The Wrangell Sentinel says it's sub scription list is growing right along, but suggests that more copies should be sent east. The Sentinel seems to have grasped the situation at the start the idea of sending the news of it's locality abroad instead of attempting the impossible task of giving it's local readers news from the states. A good local paper, one that is faithful ex- ponent of the material interests of it's immediate section, is valuable just in proportion to the circulation it is given abroad, and the business men of any town possessed of such a journal cannot make any better expenditure of money than to devote few dollars each to the circulation of their home paper in sections where they think it will do the most good. If, as we believe, The Mining Journal is doing good work, the citizens of the the town and district can easily render that work much more effective by simply subscribing for and sending abroad one or more copies each.

Juneau Man Convicted of Keeping Bawdy House Takes an
 Appeal.
From Ketchikan Mining JournalD

(From Ketchikan Mining JournalD
 The Skagway Alaskan says the peo- pie of Alaska love Ivey for the enemies he has made.
 They have had small dose of zero weather up at Juneau, as against Ketchikans extreme of IS degrees above.
 The Skagway Guide thinks Alaska Il much neglected country. Not bit of it. On the contrary it is receiving altogether too much ill-advised atten- tion.
 Fred Rasmussen, who was convicted on an indictment for keeping bawdy house in Juneau and sentenced to a years imprisonment at Sitka, has ap- pealed his case, and is now under bond of S2500.
 The WOedsky correspondent of the Wrangell Sentinel is authority for the statement that the Olympic Mining company will soon commence the erec- tion of 2O-stamp mill at the Hattie camp and push the work to early com pletion.

WAITING
 FOR BOOM The Alleged Strike on
 the Cinema. PROVISIONS SCARCE And Are Held at High PriCes...NO Gold Could Be Bought at
 Any Price.

There are two rival towns near the Cinema mining district, according to Geo. Beale, who recently passed through both, en route from Valdez to Nome
 One is called Fairbanks and is located about five miles above the mouth of the Cinema river. The other is called Cinema and is the same number of miles below the mouth of the Cinema river on the Panama. The attempt made by stam- pederS to make d town at Fairbanks will probably fail. There were 90 or 50

 In the town Of Cinema there were probably between GO and 75 people. Some were building cabins, and all waiting for boom, wi the coming Of the stampederS. Both al Fairbanks and Cinema Mr. Bcale tried to buy some gold dust from the new dj1gings. None was to 0c had. In fact from "hu, he could learn but little work had been done, and people were banking priucj- palIy on faith and hope.

were totally destroyed and rain Of
fragments Of projectiles Of all sizes was
scattered in every direction. The force

HoMEsEEKERS' RATES.



Chicago, Nov. Cit was expected
that new executive committee and q
chairman to preside over that body
would be elected yesterday by the
Western Passenger association, but
the election was put OF until the ses-
sion to be held in January. Most Of
the session was devoted to discussing
the proposition Of homeseekers' rates,
the action Of the Southeastern and
Southwestern associations being the
groundwork for the deliberations. These
associations decided some time ago to
extend the rates for homeseekers until
April 10 Of next year and, while many
Of the representatives Of the western
lines objected 10 extending these rates
throughout the winter months, It was
decided to pass the matter for the
present. As the matter stands the
homeseekers' rates will stand until &C
tion Is taken by the Western Passen-
ser association.
The adjustment Of differences aris-
ing IN connection with the division of
through rates with other associations
n territorial business was left to the
arbitration committee. No reduced
rates viii be granted for Thanksgiving.
