widening crack approached the Zine
OF their route home. It was irregular,
unceFtain-a long split, a brief inter
val and then another split-but 1t was
slowly moving to intercept the two
onsthe bay. Big Ben could see It, and
the watchers on the shore could see
1t. They made mental calculations as
to the chances. and 1t seemed to be q
pretty even thing. Only a short dis
lance to the north the ice was already
moving from the East bay out into
the big bay, but the two were only q
short distance from safety. Then the
noise of the breaking ice smote Pete's
ears, and he looked up with startled,
wild, frightened eyes.
Mercy" he calculated, and stopped
| short.
Come on" cried Big Ben, but
Pete's knees were shaking, and his
face showed that despair clutched at
his heart. He was pointing ahead,
where there was already q little lane
Of clear water @T
"Come!" Numbered Big Ben, and he
gripped the little man by the arm with
no gentle hand. The force of his will,
even more than the strength of his
arm, put Pete in motion again, and
they made slight swerve to the
south, where the ice was not yet
broken.
They were running now. Pete had
dropped the sled rope, but Big Ben
still chung to it with one hand, while
the other gripped Pete's arm and fair
~ lifted him over the ice. Under the
inspiration of q strong man who acts,
the little man was putting all his re-
naming strength into, the effort to
reach safety, but the life seemed to
go out of him when the ice again
broke in front Of him He held back,
but only for an instant Big Ben
jerked him up and forward.
"Jump, you fool!" he roared. and.
still gripping the arm of the little man,
he cleared the widening but still mar
row space that interviewed between
death and life. Then, with a quick
and dexterous jerk of the rope, he lift
ed the sled into the air and brought it
across also.
They were near enough to the shore
to be safe now, and the excited watch
ers were rushing out to them. Pete
had fallen when he made the jump
and was too exhausted to rise. Big
Ben sat down on the sled and looked
at him, his face showing his contempt.
Blamed little shrimp!" he NUT
tered. II wonder what did it for

Chilly Mule Tale.

A correspondent with the Thibet mis-
sion tells a mule story: Mules, ap-
parently, do not die from any cause,
and this mission has again proved the
extreme hardihood OF these animals
When the mission first crossed the Je-
-lapsia, q mule slipped IN the dusk and
fell into the lake at the bottom of the
pass. It was thought to be drowned.
Next morning a CONVOY found It with

its body literally frozen in. Pickaxes
were brought and the animal was dug

1t made him increase and quicken his

the cheerful conversation of his COM
panion raised his spirits, too. There
is something infectious about strength
and cheerfulness;g combined, they seem
to give strength where 1t was lacking

SPRING OUTLOOK GOOD

The early spring reports tom every northern mining district justify the claim often asserted by the Daily Alas kan trat the present year will witness a tremendous increase in the produc- tiOu of gold in Alaska and the Cana dian possessions of the north over last year. The indications now are that the increase will be more than 50 per cent. over that of last year, and that the out put will be the greatest in the history of this section of the world.
 While the output of the kloudike will not come up to what it was few years ago, 1t will probably show sufi- cient increase over last year to indicate with an absolute surety that it has started on a career under the new methods of mining that will be more productive of results than was the period when the individual miner held full sway
 There is no doubt but that Atlin has made a second start along lines that will far eclipse her record under older and more crude conditions.
 But the greatest gain this year will be on the American side, where all the old camps will show vast improvement, many of them doubling their output, and when the Panama and other dis tric,s will become producers for the first time.
 In addition tO these prospects for tEe present year, the Bullion and Alsek strikes. and the new discoveries in the Panama, Eoyukuk, Nome and other regions tell with unerring certainty of a growth that is yet of the future ia comparison with which the development that is now becoming fruitful. for the first time as nothing.

IS GOOD No Doubt About the Alsek
 District

L. NJ. West, agent for the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, returned yesterday from WhitehOrse more en- thusiastic than ever about the future of the Bullion creek and Alsek districts.
 Concerning late developments there, and of Whitehorse, Mir. West said:
 TX, EB. McLennan and Charles Wat son, Bullion creek operators, left Whitehorse yesterday morning with a four-horse team and outfit of provisions, intending to be gone two months. They are interested in discovery as well as in many other claims on various creeks.
 "Sheep creek Is showing up better than any other at the present time.
 "Other prominent men including John Irving, J. Howard Conrad, and Mir. Dooley, just from Dublin, Ireland, will soon leave Whitehorse for the AL sek district.
 Superintendent Pullman Is out in the Alsek district looking over the sit- uation, preparatory to starting a stage line. He has 20 wagons ordered which will arrive on the next Princess May from Vancouver to be put on the line.
 "Claim 64 above on Sheep, owned by A. NJ. Young, has shown g. to the pan; 4S below has shown about the same values.

CAN'T BE SEPARATED
Some People Have Learned How to
 Get Rid of Both

Backache and kidney ache are twin brothers.
 You can't separate them.
 And you can't get rid of the back ache until you cure the kidney ache.
 If the kidneys are well and strong, the rest Of the system is pretty sure to i. be in vigorous health.
 Deans Kidney P ills make strong, healthy kidneys.
 Fl B. McCarver, of POI Cherry street, Portland, Oregon, inspector of freight for the Traus-COntinental Company, a man who is very well known among the railrOaders of the coast, says: "DOan's Kidney Pills are among the few patent remedies which do all that is claimed for them, and they have my thorough confidence. l used them for bac ache and other very marked symp- toms of kidney trouble which had an- moved me for months. l think cold was responsible for the whole trouble. 1t seemed to settle in my kidneys. Deans Kidney Pills rooted it out. lt is several months since l used them and up to date there has been no re- currence of the trouble. l have recOm- mended them Co a number of the boys about the freight house and 1 know if they gave them a fair trial they cer- tainly must have been pleased with the results"
