A Good place for Miners.

e"Alaskas is not a bad place when
you get used to it," said miner who
spent the last seven years in one of
the big mining camps at the Schlitz.
81 don't know of any place where an
ordinary miner can do so well. Let
him work a summer and he has $3.50
in his pocket at the summers close. He
can invest $500 in provisions and hi
bernate in his cabin. At the end of
the following summer he has $3.50
more. Allowing $50 for boots and
clothing, he reaches Seattle with ST.
200 in his pocket. There is no chance
to spend money. The weather in the
winter prevents sleighing parties. and
there are no roads, anyway Journeys
into the country are generally made on
foot. When / left the camp on Octo-
Der 10 the temperature was zero.
About Christmas it gets down to so
below. Then it moderates to about 40,
and that is considered very mild
weather. One doesn't feel it as much
as he would 20 below here, as the air
is dry. In February the cold weather
comes on again and the mercury falls
to about 10 below. That is generally
the limit, and after that time it moder-
ates slowly until summer comes, and
in July it is 80 above. But the miner
who works underground never feels
the heat, the atmosphere in the mines
being like that of an icehouse. The
life of a placer miner is about seven
years. There is vast amount of I'M
discovered mining country which IS
doubtless as rich as any yet known and
developed. "-Milwauke Free Press.

The Coming Country.

The opportunity for the man of lit

the prairie states of the southwest
than ever before in the history of the
claims or of taking up lands under
government laws is gone and will not
return again. 1t is a different kind of
oyenir1g which lies before the settler
and it's promise is of exceeding bright
ness. Its best opportunity is shown
in the great southwest where the
transformation is going on and where
the conditions of soil and climate is
in harmony with the warm skies and
temperate winds. To the man who is
not satisfied with his condition. the
southwest has an inviting future.
Along the lines of the Missouri.
Kansas & Texas railway there are vast
areas of unimproved lands awaiting
willing hands to make them yield the
bountiful crops of which the land is
capable, There is a need of stores,
factories and new business of every
description It is the finest kind of
an opportunity in the finest section of
the United States. The southwest is
unexcelled for the variety and fer
tillty of it's soils-for its climate. Its
people are progressive and up-to-date,
its religious and educational facilities
are as good as can be found elsewhere.
The NJ. K. & T. railway has no

The enigmatical White Sox now add
another wrinkle to their puzzling ac-
tons. Despite the fact that they seem
to have struck the center of the creased
groove again, and are going down hill
like runaway automobile from the top
OF Pixies Peak, they show a remarkable
increase in their hitting proclivities
since August 3 at which time their bat
ting averages were last published. AT
the conclusion of Saturdays game, Aug
ust Il, eight of them had increased av-
erages and in certain instances little
than remarkable. Coles is the most
startling. Batting 206, nine days ago,
the fast little left-felder had made %
clean hits since that time and now
shoots towards the top of the list with
an average of 1868, an increase of 81
points all at one fell swoop. Another
week of the work which he is now doing
will send him up to the, coveted 800
mark, and get for him that suit of
clothes, price $50, which Jim Mcfarland
promised the little fellow in case he
gets to the three cycle point. The other
seven to advance are Lazotte, 9 points;
Blackburn rs points, and over the 300
Howey, II points; Quigley ID points;
and Brown, IL points. Even Old Dick
is getting the fever, and learning to hit
smaller things than bale of hay. There
are only two slumpers. Abbott has
receded 10 points, evidently the result of
the added worries of being the active
captain again, and Nicholas Carter who
has gone back %. The big pitcher, still
high with an average of 275, has been
bothered with a very badly mashed
ting. Two men are over the three cycle
mark, Lazotte, of course, and Felix
Blackburn. Big Abe is going like a
prairie fire. He has an average of 1893,
a monumental mark. iz-zT
The averages up to and including Sat-
urCaV August Il, are as follows.
