the work on them is done In the
newspaper Offices and around the fire
sides in the winter time when they
are practically impossible. We need
less hot air and speculation and
more work and exemplifcation In the
good old summer time. We need to
undertake less and do more, by this
we mean more permanent work when
1t is undertaken. II 1t is only one
job, do that well.-Urich Herald.

 TO BE SENT ON
all or not.

As soon as the river freezes and trav cling becomes good special dog teams will be dispatched to bring down the twelve hundred pounds of mail des- tined for Fairbanks and other Panama river points, which was cached by Car Tier Behn six miles above Fort Hamlin Oct. 2S.
 It was first thought the mail would be brought down and forwarded piecemeaf this winter on occasions when carriers loads were under the 40O-pound limit; !; but the winter mail promises to keep up so nearly to the limit that it has been decided to clear this batch away and be done with il.
 Unless some special arrangement is made it will have to be sledded to Panama, seventy miles from Ram part, and thence over the trail by way of Hot Springs fifty miles from Ram part. The distance from Rampant over the mail trail to Hot Springs can not be stated with certainty, the distance be- tween Panama and the springs having been reduced by long cutoff, but it is still nearer three times fifty than twice fifty miles.

Fraudulent Proof
 of Representation

Unfortunately there are too many people in this section of Alaska who are aware that the filing of false afii- davit in connection with the perform ance of assessment work does not render them liable to prosecution for per iury, and u is well-known fact that many who own claims in this section are in the habit oi giving a man s5o to go a claim iora few days, scratch around a little. sign receipt hr sloo and tiil in a blank proof ot labor stating that the amount of labor required by the law has been peFformed.-Nome Gold Dig.

SEVEN or eight months have elapsed since the date fixed when the first hope might be entertained of news from Capt. Peary and his polar ship Roose- velt Up to last accounts no word of them had come, and with the closing in of the artc winter the chances increase that the expedton's fate will remain unknown at least till next summer. Many follower of the seas has risked his life in an unworthier cause than that for which Peary sailed

0. P. Goss lost $300 dollars in cur rency somewhere around Thanksgiving. He missed the money last Sunday eve ming, but does not know exactly when he lost it.
 F. c. Manley hasa logging camp on the Hootlanana. He expects to cut about 25O, ,OOO feet of lumber this winter. The Mayo mill will be moved in a short time from the spring to the Hoot. Then when they get that cut they will move it to the Hootlatotna and cut about the same amount.
 G. w, Spicer had his mining plant moved about 200 feet from where it stood and will soon begin taking out pay. The ground is very rich, and if nothing happens MT. Spicer will take out big dump this winter He has at present the best mining plant in the district.
 Jerome Chute is making things look like mining camp on Thanksgiving creek. Work is still going on on the ditch and it surely looks like business around that part About 10000 feet of lumber will be used in fluming along the ditch. Mir. Chute is building q fine dwelling and small cabin. Mrs. Chute is on the claim.

BY examining the map it may readily be seen that gold in this country ex- tends in well defined belts easterly and westerly clear across the territory. The new Chandlar diggings are in line with the Koyukuk placers and the kobuk- Noatuk country, at the western extrem- ity of the Endicott range. In the latter section more favorable quartz prospects, probably, have been found than in any other part of Alaska in proportion to the amount of prospecting done, and exten- sive. if not very rich, placers are well known to exist The eastern portion of the Endicott range, in Yukon territory, SO far as known is totally unprospected. Except where it's southern slopes have been cut by the koyukuk and the Chandlar the same might almost be said of the entire range east of where the few Kobuk- -Nuatuk investigations have been made. l. it unreasonable to expect something from it in the iuture'

THERE is no use in being in a hurry to start to Chandlar. The people al- ready there will be lucky if they don't have to mush out By waiting till February enough supplies could be taken to last until water runs-and by that time better idea may be had as to whether it is worth while to go at all or not.

FROM THE STAY.AT.HOME POINT
 OF VIEW.

Let us frankly admit that there is one very important class that a big rush of people through Rampant would in no wise benefit It is the ones who will stick to the home creeks. If shortage or marked advance in prices of goods should occur such of them as are not already fully outtitted would be placed at disadvantage.
 The merchants should bear this class we'll in mind. If things begin to get q little too interesting let the stay-at- homes make known to their dealers what their requirements will probably be-if they are not prepared to outfit at once-and we believe they will be pro- tected both as to certainty of supply and reasonableness of price,
 Meantime, let us not forget that the fellows who stampede and keep taking chances themselves are essential to the country's advancement, and let us treat them also right and wish them well.

WOMEN AND WINE CAUSE ASSAULT
 WITH RAZOR
Thos, E. Hanley Is SIashed Across Forearm and c. E.
 Linham Is Under Arrest.
 Hearing Will Be Had Today.

Chickens come home to roost" |" There never was a truer saying than this homely one. With loose women as an attraction, music and gambling in full go, what wonder if young fel- lows, liquor crezed, should commit deeds, which might mar their whole after lives.
 Things were going lively at the Branch saloon Tuesday night. To young fellows the eyes of the painted sirens shown brighter than the sheen of the electric chandeliers; drinks and laughter, laughter and drinks; the hours passed as in a dream. Under meath this hilarity brooded disaster. It would seem that c. E. Linham and Thomas E. Hanley, young men and friends hitherto, having worked to- gether in the Junction mine, were out for good time, and having it, each in his own way. Linham for some reason seems to have objected to the attention that one of the females of the place, woman called Maud Maj or, and pronounced blonde, seemed to have for young Hanley, and it would appear that he made certain threats to do him up. Hanley did not seem to pay much attention to such talk, and kept up his pace of rejoycing When Linham later in the night had stepped out of the saloon and called to Hanley to follow him, the woman was watching the door, and as soon as Hanley opened the door, seeing that Linham had something in his hand, called out to Hanley to be on his guard Hanlev claims that it never occurred to him, that his former friend could do him any harm, so he stepped outside to see what he wanted As he stepped outside, Linham, he claims, went at him with razor in hand, say ing at the same time, that he was go- ing to do him up. In order to save himself he raised his left arm and re- ceived therein the full force of Lin hams onslaught. sustaining fright frl cut across his forearm.
 As he felt the blood gushing from the wound and having nothing to de- feDd himself with, he broke and ran into the Pike saloon. next door to the Branch, where they succeeded after while in stopping the flow of blood by tying stout string around the arm above the wound, or else the young man would have bled to death.
 Dr. Godfrey was called immediately and had to put five stitches into the arm to sew up the wound. The off cers were notified of the happening and soon had Linham under arrest, as, like the fly in the spiders web, he could not tear himself away from the sierens' place. He was produced in court today and his bail put at $500 for his preliminary hearing tomorrow, September 18th, at 3 o'clock p. m.
 The prosecution will be handled by Deputy District Attorney E. J. Flani- gan. The various females employed in the Branch saloon are all subpoe- naed as witnesses, also other parties, so that the case promises to be very sensational one.

AN OLD CH|NAMAh
 INDUCED IN PADS
He Was a Buddist and Cared For Crippeld Dogs
 and Cats.

Reports made to the authorities yes terday afternoon that the old. one eyed Chinaman who lived in a shack on the north bank of the irrigating canal in West Yuma, had not been seen for several days and 1t was be- lieved that he was dead. As he had several days none of the neighbors cared to go to the house.
 Marshal Anderson and Constable Martinez went to the house and called out, but received no answer. As the dogs showed fight, the officers were compelled to shoot four of them, which heightened the rest away, before they dared venture near the house. When they finally entered they found the old man dead. The coroner's jury found that he had died of old age and lack of care.
 The deceased was singular and well known character, who has lived in and about Yuma for many years. He was a Buddist or some other kind of religious crank. and was accustomed to gather crippled and homeless cats and dogs. feeding and caring for them. He gathered scraps from the restau- rants to feed his pets and his few chickens, and might be seen carrying baskets or buckets of this feed on a pole slung over his shoulder. He would never kill or sell chicken, and the proceeds from the sale of eggs and a few vegetables which he raised. irri- gating his garden by carrying water in a bucket, supplied his living.
 Some years ago when the city mar shal went to the old man to collect dog tax. he found thirty-six dogs and probably twice as many cats. He had money enough to pay for only ten Of the dogs, and cried like a child when the officer shot the remaining twenty six.

The res ignation followed immediately after the call issued by General Wilson for joint statehood convention to be held in Phoenix on next Monday. The an nouncement is made by the governors personal organ at the capitol, the Phoe- nix Gazette. that the General resigned for personal business reasons, but the consensus of opinion is that General Wilson refused to longer serve as an apnointee of the Governor, who in the opinion of Wilson and other joint statehood advocates of Arizona, is op- posed to Roosevelt and the policy of the National Republican administra- tion
