eral means, he took up the fight for
Miller and formed the North Star
Company, principally Seattle gentle
men, Mr.. Ellis acting as agent and
manager for the company. in about
year Mr.. Philip Corcoran, of New
York City, appeared on the scene. Mr..
Corcoran is miner OF wide experience
whose word has been above par with
capitalists in New York City. For
many years he has exported mines all
all over the world-South Africa, Aus
tralia and Mexico, for such men as
Mackey, Fair and others of like ilk.
He soon mastered the situation and
was convinced that unlimited capital
was the only thing to bring the prop
erty to the front. He and Mr.. Ellis
soon came to an understanding on
broad basis. He bonded the North
Star company's fifty odd claims and
took at the miners own prices about
fifty others making in all one hundred
and one claims.
Mr.. Corcoran presented his PROPOSE
tion to capitalists of New York City
and other of his friends and soon form

manager of the company and has full

over the Great Northern tracks. The
Mp. is also sending all its perishable
freight this way. From newspaper re-
ports we gather that it will be several
days yet before that road can take care
of its thru business. Stampede tunnel
is reported to be in very bad condition
On Tuesday last after the first train
came in there was something doing at
the post office. The first was followed
at regular intervals of an hour or two
during the entire day. About fifty
sacks of mail were handled the first
day. On Wednesday it began to come
in increasing quantities and on the
following day it dwindled away to some
eight or ten sacks, the usual number.

Bond Money Drawing
Interest for the City.

A reference contained in these
columns last Sunday concerning the
100000, now available for public i'm.
provements, from the recent bond
issue, seems to have created a wrong
impression in certain quarters.
The Journal stated that this money
was now repOsing in the bank vaults
ready to be expended on the public
Improvements for which it was voted
and that the taxpayers were paying
interest on it at the rate of S13,5O0 q
year.
This was all true, but those who are
familiar with the matter, think The
Journal should explain that this bond
issue money Is now drawing interest
from the banks and will continue to
do so until it is expended on the i'm.
provements which are contemplated

A POTTERY TOWN.

ChinEtechen Is Unlike Any Other
Place In China.
For at least 900 years the town
Chingtechen, in China, has been devot-
ed to the making Of pottery. Every
thing in Chingtechen belongs to the
porcelain and earthenware industry
The houses are for the most part built
of fragments either of old kilnS or Of
the fire clay covers in which the pOrce-
lain is stacked during firing. The riv-
er bank Is for miles covered with a
deep stratum of broken chinaware and
chips of fire clay, and the greater part
of the town and several square miles
Of the surrounding country are built
over or composed Of a similar deposit.
Chingtechen is unlike anything else
in China. The forms, the color, the
materials used in the buildings, the at
mosphere, are reminiscent Of the poorer
parts of a civilized Industrial center.
There are 104 large pottery kilns in
the town. The greater part are in use
only for a short season in the summer.
During this busy season the population
Of Chingtechen rises to about 100000
souls, but of this total nearly half are
laborers drawn from a wide area Of
country, who come for the season, live
in rows of barracklike sheds and do
not bring their families with them.
Visitors to Chingtechen pass along
street after street where every shop is
occupied by men. women and children,
all engaged in the designing, molding,
painting or distributing Of pottery.
The river bank is crowded for three
miles by junks either landing material
and fuel or shipping the finished prod

NAVAL DISCIPLINE.
Pun1shments That Are Melted Dat to
British Sailors.

British Sailors.
For infraction Of regulations some
curious punishments are melted out in
the English navy. 1t Is an everyday
occurrence, says London Tit-Bits, to
see half a dozen sailors lined up on
deck facing the paint work, holding
their hammocks on their shoulders. At
first the hammock isn't heavy, but aft
er an hour or so it drags on ones shout
ders like lead. Besides, it is not at all
entertaining to stare fixedly at a square
foot Of painted woodwork for an hour
or more at a time.
Another punishment that Jack de-
spises is battling with a spoon. He is
placed upon the deck. with two large
wooden buckets, one filled with water
and the other empty. With a spoon he
must dip all the water from one buck
ct and transfer it to the other, being,
meanwhile, the butt Of his comrades
jests and jeers.
Sometimes a delinquent is made to
walk slowly backward and forward
along the deck, nursing in his arms a
six inch projectile, Weighing a little
over 100 pounds. Once a sailor, who
laughed at the stammering speech Of
his commander, was made to stand up-
on the forebridge, in full view of the
ships crew, and laugh for an hour and
a half
Splitting upon the deck Of a man-of-
war is strictly prohibited. Cuspidors
are placed at intervals along the deck,
and these must be used. Upon some
ships, when a sailor is caught splitting
upon the deck, a small tub is strapped
to his chest, and he is made to wear it.
Any one who chooses may use this
walking receptacle. The offender thus
punished rarely repeats his offense.
