Few men have survived ordeals as trying as those lately experi- enced by Chauncey c. Clark, well-known woodchopper and fish erman who has been located eight miles below The Rapids on the Yukon river for the past several years.
 He left Tanana in a small boat, which the running ice compelled him to abandon at Sixteen mile island. He went OH and camped the first night out with all old hunter aud trapper at Scheiffelin bluff, 22 miles up the river, October 4. He started for home next morn- ing, and that was tue last heard of him till last Friday, when he was

It appears that Clark had bad very hard going after leaving Scheiffelin bluff. He probably reached the tent exhausted and went to bed wet. Next morning he was cramped ard paralyzed and practically unable to move. His condition dld not improve, and he had almost given up hope when Leppin found him.
 Leppin made fire, gave Clark something to eat and made him as comfortable as possible, and then hurried on to The Rapids and re- ported the case to the signal corps stationed there.

TAFT AND THE
 TARIFF ON PAPER

Chicago, Oct. 2o.-One of the most troublesome things President Taft will find himself called upon to explain in the future, says Her anan Ridder, proprietor of the New York Staats-Zeitung, will be bis attitude toward the print paper schedule in the Payne tariff. In this important matter the President will find the whole newspaper pro- 5essiou lined up against him and demanding satisfactory reply.
 Never was a campaign more thoroughly organized by cousum errs, says Mir. Ridder, than the campaign of the newspaper pub fishers to secure a reduction ill the duty on print paper and the free entry of paper pulp. The figures and arguments were incontroverti- ble, and the President appeared to be convinced. In fact, it was tao. itly understood that he would in. sist upon a reduction ill this tax upon intelligence. It will take nuke explanation on his part to satisfy the newspaper men that he piscovered gooi reason for chang ing his mind.

LOTS OF HAULING
 FOR TRANSFERS

Fairbanks, Oct. 22.-(Fr the Daily News-Miner. )-With great quantity of freight. estimated at over 1000 tons, on the boats which were caught along the Panama river when the freezeup came, Fairbanks shippers found their goods near at hand and yet at such distance that it was questionable whether they could be brought up river at not too great a cost.
 Although the steamship concerns will not bring any of the freight up stream, several of the transfer compa- nies have entered into agreements to haul supplies up from the steamers to Fairbanks.
 Both the Fairbanks Transfer Con- pany and the Pinkerton Transfer Com pany will begin hauling from the boats just as soon as the trails are in proper condition. Although no attempt will be made to bring up any large amount of perishables, it is still estimated that almost half of the freight which was left on the boats will be landed in Fairbanks before the winter is over.
 The longest haul will be from the Schwatka, which is in winter quarters above Minto, distance of between 60 quarters of mile from the Hot Springs trail and road is at present being swamped out from the steamer to the road. @." ~.::
 The Fairbanks Transfer Company has orders for 50 tons of freight which it will haul up river just as soon as there is sufficient snow on the ground. Consignments of cream and apples will be ''toted'' in from the Schwatka, while a large quantity of feet from the Julia R., which is in winter quarters below Twelve-mile bar, will also be brought up stream.
 Both the Arctic and Barthel's brew cries have supplies on the boats which they have decided not to leave down the river.
 The N. A. T. & T. Co. had boiler for the Gordon Electric Company, which the Evelyn attempted to bring to Cinema, but was prevented by the position of the Minneapolis, which was squarely across Twelve-mile bar when the freezeup came. This boiler will be taken from the boat and hauled to the company's plant in town.
 Tho on,,,Dor; Loyo oo3ou, from numerous small shippers in addi- tion, to bring up articles, ranging from pianos, several of which were on the Julia B., to groceries and other goods.
 VIII Be Potato Shortage
 Fairbanks, Oct. 22.-That there will be shortage in the potato supply in Fairbanks this winter is almost cer- tainty. The News-Miner says that over 100 tons of potatoes which were landed at Cinema were touched with frost. Then again several hundred tons of potatoes en route to Fairbanks were caught in the freezeup on the Panama. The Schwatka, which is in winte:. quarters near Minto, had large quan- tity of potatoes aboard. Owing to the risk of freezing, no attempt will b. made to bring the potatoes up rive. this winter, but they have been storel in the cabin erected for the purpos, and will be brought up stream with the first boats in the spring.
