to do what he could for
it. Evidently that was
little enough.
Marion was down be-
side them on the grass,
and her diagnosis was
prompt and accurate.

said. IF you could only
put him out of his pain. "
The man swept a keen
glance around the circle

stepped up to a carelessly
dressed man with a pasty
complexion. Pardon me,
sir, he said; " but will

that the shifty eyes of the

course, he drew the little
case from his pocket. The

Construction on another big wharf at Cinema will commence immediately. The heavy tonnage now arriving puts pre- mium on storing room and the freight charges that are saved by directly ship ping from Cinema to the creeks makes the latter place the logical point for wholesale merchants.

All efforts to raise the steamer Rock Island, lying submerged alongsidsof the docks at Cinema, have failed, and work thereon will cease until low water in the fall. For a long time the raising of the boat was considered comparatively easy task, but the careful inspection of divers disclosed the fact that the steamer had sustained greater injuries at the time of the breakup than was generally believed. The task is given up as hope less after three months work.-Tanana Teller.

CHATANIKA DITCH
 NOW UNDER WAY
To Be 80 Miles Long and Cost One
 and a Half or Two Million.

The Panama Teller of July II said that Al Murphy is making good and that work is under way on the Chatanika ditch.
 There were many who doubted when the first reports spread about the coun- try that work on the big Chatanika ditch would commence this summer. The undertaking seemed too stupendous for any single individual to undertake, and many obstacles were enumerated to back the assertion. Truth is ttranger than fiction and Al Murphy is building the ditch.
 Twenty-Five men are busily engaged running the final survey lines from Me- Manus river, the head of the ditch, to Pedro dome.
 A few days ago some of the surveyors were on Fairbanks creek and reported that work was progressing satisfactorily
 As originally planned, the ditch was to be sixty miles long and was estimated to cost $75O,OOO. According to the new survey it will be eighty miles in length, and the cost is approximately estimated to be from q ,5OO, 900 to $2, 100000. The survey is now located as far as Cassiar bar. Flat creek is the greatest depres- sion encountered on the entire line, and will be bridged by a syphon, one mile in length. The cutting of wagon road, twelve miles in length, is necessary to allow the hauling of the heavy hydraulic piping for the construction of the sy- phon. The building of this wagon road will commence at once.
 Three tunnels will be necessary before the different sections of the ditch can be connected. The boring thereof will be commenced in the fall and completed during the winter. The longest of them will pierce the Pedro dome, allowing the supplying of water to Twin, Pedro, Gilmore, Gol,lstream and all it's many tributaries.
 'The work has commenced, " say those ia charge, ''and will not eeas. until Me- Manas is made te run around the head oi Cieary"

TO HUNT GOLD
 ON ANADIR RIVER
Story of a Big Find in Siberian
 WiIds in 1887.

The schooner X. L., Captain Albert Soto, cleared from Nome today for Anadir bay, Siberia, said the Nome Gold Digger of June 2S.
 Besides the captain and crew of three gallant spirits, the X. l.. will carry J. T. Lindseth, who owns half interest in the vessel The ostensible purpose of the voyage is trade with the Indians, but behind this there is another motive The schooner will ascend the Anadir river distance of 600 miles in search of gold.
 The story which led to the trip reads like romance. According to this story gold was found in large quantities on the Anadir river by band of Russian Cossacks in 1887. With well-tilled pokes -or whatever is the Russian equivalent for gold sacks-they were returning to the coast when they were set upon by party of savages, and all but one were killed. This man, after enduring the greatest hardship and privation, reached Anadir with some of the yellow metal in his possession and related to the gover- nor of the province of Anadir the details of the journey, but withheld any infor- nation as to the locality in which the gold was found. Some years later the man died, but before passing away re- vealed to the governor his secret in regard to the whereabouts of the new Eldorado.
 Mir. Lindseth, who knew the story of the discovery, but nothing of its location, last winter received letter from the governor via St Petersburg. The schooner was purchased and outfitted immediate ly. On board the vessel is large min ing and prospecting outfit. This will be landed at Anadir bay, and a cargo of furs, ivory and other products loaded on board, when the vessel will return to Nome. She will leave again about q month hence with an addition to the mining outfit and six practical miners and prospectors for her long journey up the unknown and unprospected Anidir river. The party will remain on the ground all summer and next winter.

TANANA EDITOR
 WAS PUMMELED
Deputy Marshal Answered Questions
 With His Fists.

G. H. Henry's name has lately ap- peared as editor of the Yukon Press, a little paper at Panama which originally bore the name of John Bathurst at it's masthead.
 In the Press of July 21 the following appeared:
 "We have for some time refused to allow our columns to be used for the purpose of attacking constituted author ity and as long as we remain in charge of this paper we shall take the same course.
 But there are times when paper cannot altogether ignore certain requests made by the public.
 ''Some few issues back, there appeared in the Alaska Forum some uncompli- mentary language about the 'Tanana limb of the law meaning as we should judge the Deputy U. s. Marshall at this point. Among other things the accusa- tion he has even levied tribute on pros- titution'. Now We have waited patiently for the accused to apply to us for the use of our columns or take some other means of refuting such a serious charge.
 "In view of this attitude of an accused official we think it only just to the ac- cused official, and also to the law | I,h. ,it af paper should take up that and other matters pertaining to an office as inn portant as that of deputy U. $. Mar shall.
 I've think the most satisfactory method would be for The Deputy Mar shall to answer the following questions over his signature, which we will publish with the greatest of pleasure.
 ''Is there any truth in the above men, toned assertion of the Alaska Forum that you have levied tribute on prostitu- tion, not necessarily in money.
 ''Is it true that you compelled the loyal comrades of the Third U. $. Infan- try who were in your charge, to feed them not on delicacies, for those no prisoner in any country must expect, but actually to provide them with the sufficient food to which any prisoner is entitled, to enable him to keep in good health.
 ''Is it true that you have at any time during the past few weeks taken drinks with sporting women, at any bar or bars in town.
 ''ls it fact that in spite of the fact that you receive 800 day for the keep of prisoners you permit them to be fed in great part on dog fish, which is handed into the jail by fishermen who have no use for them, being interested only in whitefish and other kinds that are good for human food; and on what, out of great goodness of heart is given by enc of the restaurants in town.
 "We sincerely hope the Marshall will see his way clear to answer these ques- tions satisfactorily.

No Weeds Nor Bus

We have . suggestion to offer
to the men who are buying the
Carey lands west Of town.
No weeds or bugs exist on these
lands, and If You are careful to
use clean seeds in planting, and
OF good thrifty varieties why
should you ever be troubled with
weeds or poor, scrubby varieties
of produce?
When you come with your
farming equipment do not bring
seed nor fill out your car with in
ferior grain. Do not bring scrub
poultry and scrub stock to breed
on your new up-to-date farm.
Form an organization early, to
build up a sentiment agsinst these
things and to get uniform seeds,
good breeds of stock, good schools
and all the new and better things
that belong to your future electric
lighted homes.
Talk these matters over with
those neal you, and start right.
The orchard is equally impor-
tant, and if proper care is exercis-
ed, you need not have scrubby or
wormy fruit. Consult with the
local nurserymen to see what var
.etles do best in this altitude and
climate, and do not be slow to
profit by their experience and ad-
ice. Fruits will be no small
'art of your living and your joys.

EVERYBODY seems to know th,
meaning Of G.. B. but there is ,
chance for a guess, as to what G.
G. stands for especially among
our friends who have just com.
from the east. In some circles i,
stands for ''golf cape" and al
bathing resorts it means "ge,
clean," but throughout Idaho and
California it means "G!orious
Climate"
There is something about the
atmosphere here that Gems to
tighten the physical main spring
and give new life.
Ship an old trusty driving horse
here from Indiana, let him nip
some bunch grass and see the sur
rise a few times and he will get
frisky and buck. Ship in a car
load of gentle milch COWS from
Missouri; let them out on the
bonndless PLAIN for a day and
then try to corral them at milking
time, and you will think there has
been a fire sale on buck food.
They wont corral worth a darn,
and when you finally get them in
side, they wont give up without
atwo.step.
It's the climate | tell you, the
altitude, the energizing atmos-
phere: it affects old men in the
same way for a generation or so,
and they get gay. That's the rea-
son Uncle Sam has been unable to
grasp and control the tendency to
over do the Roosevelt idea of anti
race suicide among the early set
tiers of Utah and Bear Lake, but
as l tell you, it lasts only genera
ton or SO; then younger folks
wont stand Tor it.

Why Did We Do It?

People here often remark tina
the early settlers who had the
choice of the whole country, took
up the poorest lands, and instan.
ces are cited to show the truth of
it.
Without going into individual
cases, we acknowledge that the
early settlers often took up lands
rear the streams and timber, and
usually got rougher lands than
those who came later. Then again
the big hourishing settlements
near Blackfoot where so much
fine produce has been ra sed, does
not boast 50 rich a soil, so deep a
soil nor SO smooth a surface for
irrigation as that lying under the
canal to be put OH sale next We'd
nesday.
The answer for this condition
is found in the fact that these
lands are SO situated that it re
CURED a long and expensive canal
to water them, and no individual
nor colony had the nerve to under
take it. 1t had to be done by a
mammoth concern that could put
money into 1t for many years be
fore they received any returns,
and the settlements already form.
ed furnished the granaries from
which supp les could BE- taken to
feed men and teams during the
of construction.
The fact that so much produce
and of 50 good a quality has been
produced on the poorer, rougher
bars served notice on the later set
;lers that the problem had been
tested and their IN
'estments were perfectly safe.
The man who comes now to look
'ver the Carey Lands knows that
he experimental stage is past and
has better opportunities offered
lin than those who were estab-
ished before him.
The same was true in the earl,
ettlement of America. The Pill .
rims landed on a rock bound
cast, and picked stone from the
oil before they could farm, the
,ttlers farther west cleared dense
'res,s and grubbed ont the
