Engineer Mining Company
 ReOrganiZrS

The Engineer Mining Company has been reorganjzed and it is proposed 10 begin the development Of the proper ties of the company over on Taku Arm The reorganization of this company, which at one time cut such large fig ure in the business affairs of the city, was for the purpose of raising the funds that will be necessary for the develop ment Of the property. The capital stock of the company has been in- creased from $500, GOO to Sl, ,OOO,OOO, half Of which has been placed in the treas- ury to be sold for the money that is so badly needed to continue the work that was begun under such suspicious cir cumstauceS some time ago.
 All the stockholders are exchanging their stock in the old company for a like amount of the stock of the new company Of course, the stock will not represent so large an interest in the mine as it did formerly, though the purpose is to sgll only a sufficient Quan- tity of the treasury stock necessary to get working capital.
 Charles E. Sheppard, who managed the reorganization of the Engineer Mining Company is in Skagway DOW experimenting the details of the change. He will leave Friday for Alt lin with H. B Le Fevre, secretary O, the company.
 c. E. Bernard, a mining expert, ac- companies Mir. Shepard for the purpose of making a report on the Engineer group.

HONOR HIM
Aertia Brotherhood TOastS
 Father Cameron

One of the best oi the many success fuI parties ot the Arctic Brotherhood was given last night iu honor of the soon departing brother Father James c. Cameron. The party was a com plete surprise tO the guest of honor. More than 70 members with their ls- dies sat down to the heavily laden and flower loaded tables, Elias Ruud, chairman ot the committee introduced Grand Arctic Recorder Chealander, who presented Father Cameron with a life membership in the brotherhood and Ia beautiful engraved silver certid- cate tserei5re. NIr. Chealanderi heart fly applauded, said:
 Ladies and fellow members
 ''The Arctic Brotherhood is a peculiar institution. To was founded ir a spirit ot fun and merriment, and its tOunda- mental principles, we might say, are resting on a Ibasis of jollity and good cheer. Bu, beyond this | believe the Arctic Brotherhood has a destiny, One might almost be tempted to say that it's origin was predestined, iOr--iS it not a fact. that highupOn the side of a noun tain, towering over our city, where our orJler was uu-sed to real life, and where is first camp fire blazed forth, is chis- eled, by an Omnipo,ent and mighty hand, great and imposing, the two let ters that initials, Arctic Brother hood ' How many hundreds, or thOus- slds Of years those letters have been there, DO mau can tell; but it is enough 70 say that it was a significant cOinci- dent. And so, I believe our order has a mission. a destiny, to fu ldll.
 It is not true that we Arctic Brothers are givea entirely to iollity and merri- meut. Questions Ot momentOus import ance often receive serious consideration at our conclayss. If fellow member needs assistance, out on the trail or in the home, I believe we are ready to lend succ0r as quickly as any Organiza- tion in the world. IA brother falls, we try to gently lift him up. These are lessons incu,cated by our beautiful ritual.
 It is also true that our order hOnors the strong muscle, and the manly nerve; the resO'ute and brave heart; the sweating brow and the tOiliug brain.
 I know of s1u' one whose brain has ever tpiI.d iorthat which vas good and uprigh,. one vhnss heart ha, ever beat wien fir cadHuesS, patience and iOrbear- ance: who has been ever ready to over look our frail-ies and Co exlol any little virtue which any of us migh. hayeIbeen able to show. One in whom has been all the grsItties ot mar, of brother of friend.
 Father Cameron, these things and more we have found in you. And as you are soon to depart from us, dep-iv- in Us of your sunny nature and genial

e1mpanionship, we have sought this oc' cassion to tell you Of our esteem. And it gives me infinite pleasure, on behalf of Camp Skagway No, 1, to presentyou with life membership. And to further acceutuate this, we have had the fact engraved on this silver certificate Father Cameron; receive the same, and whenever you look upon this card, al ways remember that.every letter there on is a sentence of that love aud ven eratlon which you have left behind m the heart of every fellow member ot Camp Skagway No l.'
 Father Cameron responded with one of those heatfelt and sympathetic little speeches that none but he can deliver. Grand Arctic ChiefL S. Keller toasted the departing brother, and Arctic Chief Le Revere spoke most eloquently about Father Cameron and what he has ac- eomplished as Arctic chaplain of Camp Skagway. NJ. B Clemingcr's talk about Father Cameron's home life was very much enjoyed by the company.
 After the banquet there was general rejoicing and dancing to late hour to the strains of Dr. Keller's orchestra, which, reinforced by a couple of mem bers of the military band, made a most pleasing combination of pieces for a small orchestra
 Max GutieIt, as caterer for the occa- sion, surely gave general satisfaction.
 The ladies carried home with them beautiful bouquets of flowers as souven- frs of one of the prettiest and most suc- cessful affairs ever given by the Arctic Brotherhood.

Many people believe that blonde or light hair denotes affection and dark hair constrncy, a person without hair is not devoid of character: fur from it.

Huge blocks of argentiferOus lead ores attract atten- ton by their glistening particles.

A particu- lar group is oxide, azurite and copper sulphide ores, whose beauties seem like shimmering glints from natures own rainbow.
