for the season, sustained until after
storms of rain. wind and thunde about

violent to dangerous storms may appear

A regular storm period runs from the
10Th to the 23rd. All through the central
part of May there is great tendency at
the storm periods of daily cycles OF
storms, for number of days in success
ion, breaking up as rule with general,
and very violent storm. This period, the
10Th to the 23rd. promises to bring one OF
these cycles The elimination of this
period will fall within SO hours of mid
night on the 90 The outlook for this
period is threatening, but we will name

 There will be an egg war in Dawson says the Seattle Times. Dawson men no " in the city are about to engage in mad scramble over the ice with lot of freeh eggs, and the first one to arrive in the northern camp will, of course,be able to realize handsomely on his ven- ture. It is estimated that Dawson will be able to use about 750 cases of eggs between now and the opening of nav igtaion, and the merchants will take in fully 1,500 cases. R. l.. Vining, Duncan Shaw, Peter Jackson, D. Derusha, $. McCuen and R. l.. Palmer, all Dawson merchants and commission men, are now in Seattle ready to take eggs North.
 A bona fde strike has been made on the tundra between Bourbon and Dry creeks which will undoubtedly develop into one of the richest pay streaks ever located on the Seward Peninsula. The gravel already uncovered rivals the famous Little creek, and strange to re- late, the discoverer of that wonderful ground, J. c. Brown, is heavily inter- ested in the new strike. The strike was made on the line between the Cyrus Noble and the Bourbon bench, some times called the bench off the Cyrus Noble at depth of 110 feet. Fifty feet of drift has been dug and the dirt taken out of the end of the drift this morning is the richest yet discovered. The pay is about five feet deep and in a six-inch layer of sand on bedrock S6O pans are very common. One pan con- tained over S100. The Cyrus Noble claim is owned by J. c. Brown and Sam Samson and Samson and Anton Orson have lay on the property. J. c. Brown is also interested in the Bour- bon bench, and Fred Johnson and partner have lay on the property Nome Gold Digger.
 A great temple lined with gold, that shone as the sun, hidden away in great unknown land, presumed to ex- ist, not known to, was the sought-for prize of many Spanish expeditions du- ring the sixteenth century. Conjecture had it that this wonderful golden tenn pie existed in the Land of Dabaiba,and this land included goodly part of South America. No temple of the kind was ever found, yet expedition after expedition made vain search for the golden myth, penetrating into the then vast unknown central South American region and though not having been re- warded by gold, yet they made known to the world the nature of the wilder ness visited, and thus the expeditions were not wholly fruitless. It was to the search of this vast treasure that the world is indebted for the word Eldora- do. The latter-day version of the word is somewhat different from it's original meaning. The Spaniards applied the word Eldorado to the far-of temple which history told them was lined with pure gold and blazoned with emeralds, and the word has been passed down,to- day referring to extraordinary gold fields, not to districts where gold is extracted from ores, but peculiar only to auriferious fields.-Exchange.

 J.H. Hughes, of Fairbanks, is at Washington urging congress to estab- fish mail routes in the Kantishna country. He declares it to be one of the richest districts in Alaska. Hughes says he may leave Fairbanks and locate at Diamond, where the department will probably establish postofice.
 Congressman Payne of New York, chairman of the ways and means com mittee of the House, objected to re- ceiving the Alaska memorial adopted by the Seattle convention. Payne hasn't time for anything but the Ding ley law and he thinks it ought to be read in churches every Sunday.-Sew- ard Gateway.
 A press dispatch from the national capital says that much pressure is be- ing brought to bear on the committee on territories to secure favorable re- port on the Lowering bill, which pro- vides for government aid for Alaska railroads.

 At recent meeting of the board of directors of the Masks Steamship Company, Charles E. Peabody, formerly vice president, was chosen president to succeed Walter E. Oakes, resigned; George H.

 The steamer Portland will soon be in commission again on the Valdez-Seward run. The latter part of December the Portland was wrecked on Spire Island, near Ketchikan, and for few weeks was given up as total loss. The marine underwriters succeeded in float ing the vessel and she was lowed to Se- attle by the tug Pioneer. As soon as the Portland is ready to go into com mission she will be taken over by the Alaska Commercial Company.
 In the event of the anti-gambling bill passing the upper house at Washington as it has already passed the lower house, distinct hardship will be work ed upon Whitehorse people who go to Skagway for the purpose of chasing white checks over the green. It will soon be that, aside from experience with the customs man at the Summit, there will be but little left, except the memory of other days, in connection with trip to Skagway.-Whit ehorse Star.
