many people have asked me for in
formation concerning the Yukon
Territory Or Alaska. Many have
asked me to publish an account of
what know and what have seen
in that part of the world. To salts
fly all I comply with that wish and
give recital and true story of what
I know and have seen in that coun-
try. I notice that the majority of
people ask on first meeting me,
chow is Alaskan" This term be-
ing used in general as plenty of
people don't know or don't seem to
realize that Alaska belongs to the
United States of America and VII
kon Territory to Canada. People
also make mistake by comparing
the stories told by a man from
southern Alaska, who has never
lived in Yukon Ter. with the stor.
les told by a Yukoner who has
never lived in southern Alaska and
most generally people find a great
difference in the stories told by the
two men. Very few people can
imagine what size country Uncle
Sam has up north 1 can't blame
the average citizen for not knowing
better because our smart heads and
wise sages in congress and the SEN
ate look upon Alaska as a little
piece of dirt and rocks covered with
ice and snow attached to Our con-
tinent. Alaska is a country the
resources of which are unlimited.
1t is a country so large and vast
you can't easily comprehend its
size. Alaska has $40, 900 square
miles. 1t is large enough for q
good size states and big enough to
hold all the people in the United
States. I am not familiar with its
population. I know there is not
a man who could give an exact &C
count. The population is very,
very small compared to the large
country it lives in. The popula-
Etion consists chiefly Of miners and
traders with sprinkling of other
occupations thrown in. The main
resources are mining gold, silver,
copper the fur trade, fisheries;
stock raising and farming is yet in
its infancy. The climate in south
ern Alaska is mild all along the
coast. 1t is as gentle as the Sound
country. 1t rains mostly during
winter and there is more snow at
Juneau than any other place near
there, but the climate in never so
cold as in Northern Alaska or Yu-
kon Territory. All kinds of veg
Fables are grown anywhere and
grass is abundant. Seattle Butch
er Cos. are wintering thousands of
sheep in Southern Alaska. This
Statement alone will convince the
reader that the climate is all right.
Just as saon as more people enter
The interior, you will see the finest
stock ranches in the land light
along upper Tanana River. The
people are raising cattle along the
coast now. Travelling in that
country is very hard, there being
brushes, heavy timber and swamp
land to travel through. AS soon
as railroad is built from Valdez
TO Eagle City on the Yukon river
you will see a rush for that country.
The mines of Alaska are lust
scratched. The copper deposits are
the largest found anywhere and all
that is needed to open them to the

The Biggest Yet.

| The glory of the Baltic, the biggest
The White Star line, which owns the
Baltic. has awarded a contract to Har-
land &. Wolf of Belfast, Ireland build
ers of all the company's boats, to con-
struct a new ship that will exceed the
Baltic by 1900 tons. The Baltic meas
ures 725 feet 8 inches in length, but
the new colossus is to be 755 feet long.
1t was stated today by one of the Of
ficers of the Baltic, who spent a good
deal of time at Queens Island, where
the Baltic was built, that the keel of
the new leviathan has already been
laid. The selection of a name for the
new boat has not yet been made, but
it will be either Adriatic or Asiatic.
The first named has the preference.
the line once owning a craft of that
name.
AS is customary with the officials of
the White Star line on this side. they
plead entire ignorance of the new con-
tract. It always had been the policy
of the line not to make any official an
nouncement Of nes, craft until she is
fully six months under way. The Baltic
has a tonnage of $4,000 tons, so that
the new vessel will be of $4,000 gross
tons She will have one foot more

THE GREAT rIEDICINE.

Prominent and Popular Citizen. Says.
''After the Use of Paine's Celery compoan6,
Am Now In the Best of Health"

The greatest of modern physicians, Prof
| Edward E. Phelps, NJ. D., IL. D., after years
| of long practice and close scientific study, gave
| to suffering and diseased men and women his
| marvellous, life giving prescription, with the
conviction and positive knowledge that ii had
peculiar virtues and ample powers to cure.
Thousands of the strongest testimonials from
the best known and most reliable men and
women of our country fully sustain the clarnE
made by DR.. Phelps regarding his incompas-
able Paine Celery Compound.
One of the most convincing proofs furnished,
comes recently from a gentleman widely
known an the capital city of the Dominion Of
Canada. We refer to Mr.. Alfred Brown, oil

The annual report of United States
Shipping Commissioner B. Griggs Holt
of this city covering the fiscal year
ending June 80. 1904, has been complet-
ed. 1t is a detailed account of the
transactions of the commissioner during
the past year and is a mine of inter-
estirg information The report shows
that the business of the port is in a
healthy condition, the number of men
handled showing a substantial increase
over the preceding year. TiS largest
number of the men were shipped in sail
ing vessel but as the crews of such craft
are necessarily larger than those of
steamers and as most of the steamers
calling at this port are through boats
this does not signify that the latter
class of vessels does little trade here
Perhaps no other port in the world
can show such a cosmopolitan an array
of seamen as Honolulu. The tribes
scattered at the dispersion of Babel
seem to have gathered again at the
Crossroads of the Pacific which
might as APPLY be called The Cross
roads of the World" From frigid Ice
land to sunny Italy, from the Philip
pines to Austria they come. Some
were even born at sea. Native Ameri-
eans however are far in the lead with
tie japanese, British, Naturalized
americans and Germans following in
TIE order named. 1t seems surprising
in a port where there are so many Chi
nese that only one Chinese sailor was
shipped but the workings of the inn
Mitigation law keep the Chinese out of
the trade.
Another noticeable feature of the re-
port is found in the table of assign
ments of wages. At. many ports a large
portion of the wages of deceased sea-
men is allotted to their relatives but at
this port the creditors got all the money
except in one case, while during the
preceding fiscal year in not one case
was the money paid to relatives. A
condensed summary of the report fol- |
lows which without going into the |
minor details will suffice to give an
idea of the scope of the Shipping Com
missidner's work.
