days. The contestants are represented

Mandell Is constantly being asked for
a ruling.
The evidence heretofore has been
extremely technical. being given by en-
gineers, and related 10 the alleged

on the stand He was examined as TO
the damages resulting 10 the Moffat
block. He stated that the building had
been wCll constructed. and cost orig

building deprecated about 10 per cent
during the years II has been erected

lowed the erection OF its neighbor. De
failing the damages, he referred to the
unsightly supports applied TO keep the
building together. the sinking OF the
floors. the bullying OF the walls and the
displacement Of the supporting col

An attempt was made to get from

OF the 430-mile dog race from Nome 10
Candle Creek in April OF that year,
drove his eight Yukon "huskies" down
Broadway to the envy and admiration
of hundreds OF small boys along the
route.
The eight dogs were harnessed to a
long Yukon sled, which, in the absence
OF snow, was mounted on small pneu-
matic-tired motor wheels. The process
sion from Sixty-sixth-st. down Broad
way to Twenty-third-st was beset with
difficulties, owing to the rush OF traf'
fic. Automobile drivers footed their
horns in vain endeavors to get past.
II was not so much the dog team that
blocked the way, but the hundreds or
eager sightseers who got In the road
way and crowded the dogs so that
halt had to be made every two or three
blocks. The police we're on the look
out, and kindly gave the hardy pio-
neers from the frozen north all tile

Caribou Bill" whose real name Is
william F. Cooper, is one OF the 20
pioneers who camped at Circle City,
on the Yukon river, in 1898, just three
years before George Mccormack ais
covered gold on Bonanza creek, trib-
utary OF the Klondike river. For five
years he carried the Canadian mails
from Dawson City, 512 miles. to Dyea,
on the Alaskan coast, making one
round trip a month with three relays
OF dogs. From 1900 to 1908 he car
ried the American mails between
Eagle City and Valdez, a distance OF
4O4 miles, and made several trips from
the latter point to Nome, about LIZ
miles, over the snow and return.
Caribou Bill" hopes to drive his dog
team TO the city hall and have II in
