NEW ROAD
Government to Open Up Dixie
 Creek Country

The government will begin soon upon the construction of a wagon road from Blue canyon iu the Atlin district to the new Dixie district, It is believed that the construction of this road will make the new district one of the very best in the whole north country. Dixie creek and its tributaries, Mckinley and Bull creeks, have been prOspected this sum- mer and they are producing good re- Il Its.
 At the present time the Blue canyon is the nearest point at which a wagon can unload supplies for the Dixie dis trict and they then have to be packed by horse or hand over the Spruce creek divide and on into the country beyond,

Tanana District Very Rich
 Country

JH. Rogers, general agent at Dawson of the W. PAY. R, who was sentto the Panama to investigate the situation there for his company, is highly pleased with the prospects for the country. Writing from Fairbanks, under recent date, he says:
 "The camp is on a cash basis. Cred it is not given. The output thus far has been wholly without aid of outside money, which means the camp has sup ported itself
 'I am convinced thIs will be a good camp. l do not think many will leave this fall. A large number will come in by the lower river as we'll as the upper and much work will be done.
 "Clary looks to be the best stream. Fairbanks and Pedro also are good, Over $500, ,OOO has been taken out this year. The ground is rich in places.
 Many laymen are trying to buy the ground they are working.

Unterrified Democracy Will
 Probably Organize

The activity of the Skagway repubi- cans has stirred the unterrihed democ- racy of the town, and a democratic club will probably be the result. Ever since the announcement in the Daily Alaskan that the republicans were discussing the advisabiity of forming a Roosevelt club in the city, the organization of 8 Parker club has been talked of by lead ing democrats.
 It is pointed out by the diciples of Jef' ferson that the late democratic national convention declared for territorial gov ernment for Alaska and for the appoint ment oi all federal officers from resi- dents of the district. This is the most complete recognition, it is claimed, that Alaska has ever received from a nation al party convention, and that the only previous recognition ever received was the democratic declaration of four years aro for home rule for Alaska Those who favor the organization of demo cratic club say that such substantial recognition as that bestowed upon the district by the national democratic or ganizatiou demands that the people of the district should exhibit their appre- citation, and that at least the democrats should display loyalty to the national organization which has been so loyal to them.
 A call will probably b. issued in the near flute for meeting of Skagway democrats.

Old Mans Secret.

Alpena, Mich, Sept. 5.-(Special)-
Seventy-fye years of age, but hale and
hearty is Mr. jerome X. Fournier of
this place. and to those who ask the
secret of his splendid health he gives
the good advice, Use Dodds Kidney
Pills"
When asked for his reason for so
strongly recommending the Great
American Kidney Remedy, Mr.. Four
nier related the following experience:
Il recommend DOdd's Kidney Pills
because they cured me of Diabetes. L
suffered with my kidneys for Il long
time and suffered terribly from those
Urinary Troubles that are so general
among aged people
Then L started to use Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and eight boxes of them
cured my kidneys, regulated my water
and made me feel like a hearty young
man"
Dodds Kidney Pills make the old
feel young because they make sound
kidneys. Sound kidneys mean health
and health is the other name for youth.

The Theatrical Super Trust.

The ''super's" salary ranges all the
way from twenty-five cents to a dollar
a performance, but is generally about
three dollars and fifty cents week.
His chance of promotion was former
ly rare, though of late years Il man
with talent stands a very fair show
of climbing. There are several we'll
known actors who began as supers and
they are always pointed out by the
rest Of the profession (super) as shin
ing examples, but for everyone who
succeeds, hundreds fail.
In olden times it was the custom in
heavy productions to have six or eight
men represent a vast concourse of peO-
pie; then they gradually increased the
number until sometimes q hundred
were used at one time. 1t was at this
period that the super" entered the
dramatic field. 1t was then that the
lads" in the papers for ''supers" be-
gan to make their appearance, and
nothing in the Help Wanted column
was SO well responded to. a call for
fifteen men invariably brought a hun
Gred and fifty, in all stages of dilapi-
datiOn.
When manager needs ''supers"
nowadays he simply goes to the phone
and calls up the agency handling them,
states how many and what kind he
wants, and the agency fills his order.
For example. suppose the manager
Of Il large production requires:
Two old men with full boards. six
middle-aged Frenchmen. one japanese
with long dropping mustache, twenty
well-built young man." He rings up
the extra peoples bureau and gives
these items; and the agency, after Sc
lecting as many as they have on their
books, sends out trained assistants to
procure the rest.-LeSlie's Monthly.

Mess System on a Man-of- War.

The messing on board a big manor
war is as complex and complete as
the table service of q big hotel. The
modern war-ship with its five or SIX
hundred persons on board, must be
floating hotel and stOrehouse in itself.
Every vessel of the navy is required
by the regulations governing the navy,
to have a general messing system.
The enlisted men on ship are divided
into squads of about twenty each,
forming a mess. Chief petty officers
and officers servants are not included
in this division. Every mess has one
or two petty officers at its table, who
fare like the men. Every mess has
it's special messman who brings the
food from the galley and serves it at
the table. 1t is also the messman's
duty to see that the mesStable and
are clean and in order. The
messes on board ship are under the
direct supervision of the cOmmissary
department, which is under the con-
troll of the pay officers Cunston's
Magazine.

American Shipping.
nowadays

We have Just one line of Atlantic
steamships flying the American flag,
and that belongs to the ship trust. One
Of the vessels. the St Louis, broke
down on her late voyage to New York
and the president of the steamship
tristan Englishman-has ordered
her to be sent to Ireland or England
for repairs. The labor unions and the
Marine Trade Council have protested
that it is dangerous to her crew to
abled condition, and cite the provisions
of Section 1853, of the Revised Stat
utes, to show that the government Off
Gals should not allow the vessel to
repair the vessel on the other SIDE and
they would have doubtless risked yes
sci and crew if the labor unions had
not protested. No wonder we cannot
build up a merchant marine, with our
sole Atlantic line run by foreigners
discriminating against this country.
Yet our government pays a large sub
sidy for carrying the mails to the
American line, but it does not seem to
aid our ship yards. If the Republican
program for a larger ship subsidy is
forced through Congress, from appear
ances, the English will gobble it, al.
though they will have to allow the
stars and stripes to fly over the ships.
