She started home soon after dark
and. in crossing Elm avenue met with
a painful accident. Van Hendricks
was driving east and the glare of the
nearest electric light prevented him

quite deaf and could not hear the
movement of the vehicle. The re-
suit was a slight collision, the hub OF
one wheel striking Mrs. Godding and
knocking her down. Such fall was
great shock to woman of Mrs.
Godding's advanced age. No bones
were broken but an ankle which re-
ceived very bad sprain scvera,
years ago was injured and il is fear
ed that it may be several weeks be-
fore she will be able to walk. In
this affection Mother Godding has
the sympathy of many friends.

l ,arge Amount
 Incoming Freight
Receipts of Freight for Interior Points At Skagway Double Thoserof Last
 Year-Much Machinery Coming

From the Skagway Alaskan ~SKAGWAY, June A.-Never in the history of Skagway has therebeen such . quantity of freight discharged here as this year. The customs records show that more than twice as much freight arrived at Skagway for shipment to the interior in May of this year than in May of last year, and during the first 12 days of this month the incom- ing tonnage was greater than that fer all the month of June, 1904. The ad- vices from the south are to the effect that the second half of the present month will witness the arrival here of still greater quantities of goods for the interior.
 Much of the incoming cargoes are made up of mining machinery, more of which IS coming north this year than ever came before. 1t consists of great hydraulic plants for Atlin, the Klondike and the American Yukon, and of smaI- CT plants for allof these districts.
 There has been great increase in the shipments of live stock also. Fms is on account of the greater demand by the increased population of the Tanana district and other sections of the lower Yukon.
 The increase in the shipments to ,the north is not confined to the demand of any one section. More merchandise 5 being sent to both the American Yu- ,kon and the Klondike than ever before has been the case. The percentage of the growth of the lever Yukon trade is larger than the Klondike, but the latter remains the greatest consumer of the north.
 The White Pass is being forced to keep more rolling stock moving than ever before at this season of the year.
