 The company halted, and one stnl. wart buck advanced alone. When he had gone n short distance he laid down his weapon, and Captain Klinkinberg, willing to treat with him, dropped his rifle. The sealcr and the savage con. verscd in signlanguagc, and Klinkin. berg learned that none of the fellow 's seen white man before.
 The whnlcr and the chief got on to. gethcr very well. They visited the vii. lagc, where Klinkinberg thinks there were about 800 people, all of whom lived by hunting and fishing. Their dress was not like that of ordinary Eskimos, but more like the dress of Greenland natives, being made of softly tanned skins scwcd with deer sincws They used the most primitive. utensils fashioned from bone and native cop per.
 Their winter houses were made of sod, and lined, for the sake of further protection against cold, with skins The people were nomadie, but were ac customed to stay some time in on, place. The only article, seemingly brought from civilization which Cap tain Klinkinbcrg saw was small piece of steel, evidently from som, ship. This had been fashioned into q spcar-hcad.
 It is proposed to send n party from 1 Seattle to Prince Albert Land for tn, purpose of visiting the strange native, and If possible, persuading number of them to come to Seattle in time foI the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition ir 1909. The exposition, while it is to b, an international fair in every sense will be particularly strong in its Show ing of the products and peoples of tn, far north, and it is thought that ar exhibition of n small band of th, brand.ncw savagcs would he of unusua interest.

"Mohayc county was never so pros. rerous ai any period of it's history as ,t the present Timc, and the stockmcn and miners of that part of the Terri. ,ory look forward to 1907 10 eclipse all former records in production," said ex. sheriff Henry Lovin to n Journal. Miner map, last evening.
 "Kngman, our county seat, is shar. ing in inc general prosperity" he said. "A large electric plant is being installed there to furnish power 10 the miues m and around Gold Roads and other districts and the merchants are enjoying good patronage.
 "Tbc Gold Roads mine Is showing better than ever on the 100.foot level, ,he paystreak in the drifts being 20 fee, in thickness, all of which is mill. iug ore of good grade. In my opin- op this mine is destined to be world bes,er as q gold producer and besides there are number of promising prop er,ies being developed in the district which contributes much to the general activity of that section.
 "Col. Thomas Ewing is installing n 2Ostamp mill at his Gold Dust mine and is also erecting an electric power plant on inc river at Needles, to furn' i.h power and light at his camp. In iAe Ccrbai range the Chloride nnd other mines are furnishing enoush of lend 'srlver ores 10 keep the smeiting plant ., Needles on a steady run, mixing this section particularly active also.
