to playing with electricity. The
public can look forward to some
thing new nevertheless 49,,
The new luminous arc greatly
improves the quality and efficiency
of the arc lamps. Lamps are
made giving as much as 1000
candle power or nearly five times
as much as the ordinary arc lamp.
The very latest in heating. de-
vices are the baby milk warmer,
combination shaving mug and wa

Mr. Gale is making d flying trip over this section prior to going to Fairbanks where Le will remain until 1t ia time to leave for Washington for the long tern, of Congress. Ho will return to Ju-eau Il ou the Berth9.
 MT. Gale says that he has Hot been in Was hington since the close of t!.e last sess:on, but states that he ha. assur auces that Alaska will fare better in the way of legislation tlrs iall than heretofore. The division a:ii, he says, will be adopted without ia.., thero be- ing no oposition to the measure, and 1t being strongly favored by the presi dent. He says that in the past the president has listened to re- commendatiors of the federal officers of Alaska instead of it's elected repre- sertatives. but intimates that hereafter a different course will be pursued.
 Speaking of the attempts of tie large corporations to corrall all of the copper deposits of the interior, MT. Gale says there is a growing sentiment against such corporations. notwith- standing the fact that they bave been largely instrumental in developing the country so far.

Gigantic Water Grant.

The most gigantic water grant ever issued for water in the Yukon has just been issued by the minister of the interior, Frank Oliver, to the Yukon Milling, Died: ing & Power Company Tho grant is for J0,0,0 inches of water from the klonkike river, for 20 years The diversion is to be made from the river at point ihree-qnarters of a mile above Rock Creek. Rock Creek is lo miles from the mouth of the klon- dike.

puss,ans Worked KlOndike

The discovery of early Russian working in the klondike was made in dramatic way. A short dis covsry claim on Hunter creek chief tributary of the Klondike-a number of miners were working a lay.
 When the ground was opened a couple of feet, the miners came across traces of an old tunnel. At first they paid little attention, as in the early days of the country in 1897 to 1909, all kinds of tunnels were dug and then abandoned by a certain class of inexperienced newcomers, who expected to find gold in millions for few days labor. But as the miners went deeper, they saw that this tunnel could not be the digg;ngs of so recent period. The timbers that shored the walls were old and rot ted, the tunnel looked as if it had not been worked for a certury.
 At the end there were signs oi a tragedy, The bones of couple of men were found past a cave-in which had evidently imprisoned them beyond all rescue, and OF their legs there still clung the heavy manacles with which Rus sia in the old days hobbied her political prisoners. The men had died miserably because of the cave in, and for some reason never to be known were not rescued. The iron on their legs had apparently hindered their movements, for the situation would not have been des- perate to modern miner. possess ing freedom of movement. Beside them, were their century-old picks, heavy, blunted and inefficient in struments. The remains were respectfully buried and the instru- ments and leg irons were saved, and will Dn @ portion of the Rus san exhibit in the Alaska building of the Alaska-Y Yukon-Pacitic Ex- position.
