From Tanana to Whitehorse behind dog team in less than six weeks and alone is the record made by Mrs. Lund- quist, of this city, says the Skagway Alaskan. To make the trip over nearly 1900 miles of snow and ice through wind and snow storms is no small task for anyone with dog team, but it has been made many times by men since 1897. And women have made long trips of that nature before when accompani- ed by men, but it remained for this plucky Skagway woman to make the journey alone with her own dog team.
 A notice comes from Messrs. Vim 6 Gillette, Juneau, to Robert Reid, T. c. McHugh and Mrs. Mary Wilson to pay S40,000 because an uncompleted pile of lumber toppled over onto the Wellman "kid," who had no business monkeying around the lumber yard. We have heard of just such unjust cases as this where "packed juries" gave verdicts for enough to cover the ready cash in sight (say S18,000 or so), but that could hardly occur in the First Alaska district, where "honesty" is the watchword. We feel sorry for the little Wellman boy and his parents, but their grounds for damages are just about as solid as if the boy had fallen off the mill wharf or if log had rolled over him while being snatched onto the saw carriage. We shall watch with interest the developments in this case.-Wran- gell Sentinel.
 The existence of hard bituminous coal within easy reach of the ocean, probably the most important discovery so far as Alaska's future is concerned that has been made since the purchase of that territory, is reported by Dr. G. c. Martin, of the United States geolog- ical survey in recent bulletin. Less than twenty five miles inland, this coal, superior to any similar mineral in any of the countries that borderthe Pacific Ocean, lies in large veins. The coal field, according to the report of Dr. G. e. Martin, is situated from twelve to twenty-five miles inland from Controll- CT Bay, Alaska. It is in the valley of the Boring River, a good-siAed stream which flows into Controller Bay east of Copper River. Dr. Martin spent the summer of 1903 in studying the pe- troleum and coal deposits along the south shore of Alaska, and in the course of his explorations he travelled up the valley of the Boring to distance ot about forty miles from the coast. A preliminary report of his investigations will be published by the survey in bulletin entitled Contributions to Economic Geology, 19o3," which is ex- pected to be ready for distribution about May l.

ADandy for Burns.

Dr. Bergin, Pana, Ills, writes: "I have used Ballard's Snow Eminent; always recommended it to my friends, as am confident there is no better made. 1t is a dandy for burns.' Those who live on farms are very liable to many accidental cuts, burns, bruises which heal rapidly when Ballard's Show Liniment is applied. It should always be kept in the house for cases or emergency" 25c, soc, S1oO bot tie at J. Heubner's Drug Store.

 Rich deposits of gold are reported to have been found near Eagle City, along the American Yukon. These various reports of ''gold findings" just at this season of the year, are always regarded with suspicion-as it has sort of ad- vertising appearance about it.-Seattle Times.
 A report of rich strike on the Yu- kon river island near Eagle, comes from Carl M. Johanson, United States court commissioner at Eagle, who sregarded as one of the most conservative men in the Yukon. Mir.

It is thought that it is only question of time when a gusher will be struck that will set the country on fire with enthusiasm for the Alaskan oil fields.
 Transportation managers estimate that Nome and Lower Yukon districts will call upon the states for about 100000 tons of provisions, supplies, material, machinery and general mer- chandise this year.

The season bids fair to be one of the most successful on record.

The Crow and the Ptng-Pong Ball.

During a piazza game of ping-pong
one of the balls was sent quite q dis
lance out over the lawn, where crow
seized it and bore it off in triumph, evil
IDENTIFY thinking it was an egg. After
much pecking, from all of which the
frolicsome little ball bounced away I'M
broken, the crow had an excited con-
sultation with several of his fellows,
and then deliberately carried the ball
to the top of high treet and let it
drop. Again the assemblage of black
feathered experimenters gathered
around in amazement Was there ever
such remarkable egg? 1t had fallen
from a height that played havoc with
their eggs and their little ones as well
and yet survived intact! Then one af-
ter another tramped on it, cawing loud
~ all the while.
At last, in sheer exhaustion and dis
gust, they all gave it up, flew to the
top of their favorite tree, and. still
cawing loudly, watched one of the
ping-pong players come out from the
house and carry off this invincible egg
that had baffled their boldest attacks
