One Mans Experience.

The experience of the agent In
C'handar district is fair example.
Speaking of him the chief agent says
he was not a scholar, but man who
had lived there for years and well
fitted to undergo the priyations neces'
sary,' That his good qualities were
put to the severest test the report
shows.
Severe weather was encountered
throughout all of his work. says Nc
Kenzie, "and at no time after he left
Fairbanks until he returned did the
thermometer get above thirty de-
grees below zero. His long journey
away from the base of supplies made
it impossible for him to carry suffi-
cient grub and dog food, and he was
oblige to live off of the country, kill
ing moose, mountain sheep and other
fresh meat. During the work he lose
two of his dogs from freezing to
death. He himself froZe portions Of
his face several times, and at one
time dropped into sixty feet of open
water, nearly losing his life. In
crossing the Arctic range and return
ing he travelled above timber line IS
hours in each direction, which In a
country where fire is necessary, can
be understood to be considerable
sacrifice. He travelled IN many places
where no white man had ever before
been andshis record is considered an
usual to say the least"

the story is simply told it is Won
derful thrilling narrative of adventure
showing that when Uncle Sam starts
out to round up his children he
spares no expense to locate them and

Mr.. McKenzies narrative, made
public tonight, comes in advance OF
his figures. so that it is impossible
to give the population Of the country
covered by him and his twenty as
sistants, For reasons of its own the

Mckenzie made his headquarters at
the mining town of Fairbanks. His
first special agent was appointed on
the 10th of last November and the
work was completed by the l1th Of
April when Mckenzie left for "the

as thrilling as some Of his expert

it was stirring enough to arouse in

The bureaus principal reason for
n winter census is found in the fact
that getting about the country is
much easier at that than at any other
season. There are no bridges in the
country and as crossing the streams
when not frozen over is a serious
problem, Mr.. Mckenzie SAYS that to
have made the enumeration in the
summer would have required the ser
vices of four times as many assist
ants while the cost would have been
six times as great He also express

would have been as satisfactory. AS
