STAMPEDE ID THE
 HOS|ANA

Ed Bresnahan. who left for the Hosiana with Alec Nicol a couple of weeks ago, has sent a letter to town in which he tells of their progress to time of writing.
 MT Bresnahan says that it is the opinion of most in that section that the mail contract for the Chandlar- Koyukuk route this year will be given to Victor, of Nictor's landing, and therefore there is q chance of the Hosiana people getting their mail this winter.
 Jack Welsh arrived back from the Hosiana with some fine prospects. which he found on Pitka Fork. He went to Rampant for an outfit. and six more outfits left there for the Hosiana about the same time.
 Ten or more are going in with Nicol and Bresnahan, so it looks as though there were going to be some thing like a stampede into that dis trict Rampant is said to be already deserted, and more are expected from Dawson, Panama and the Koyu- kuk.
 Bresnahan says that there are tons and tons of supplies waiting for shipment to the Hosiana.
 No more graphaphone for me . says Ed, 'I can see big nuggets sticking out now"
 The party to which Bresnahan is attached were to leave the Landing on August p, and expected to reach their camp on the Hosiana before the freezeup.
 The Hosiana people are still plug ging away for the trail that has been promised them, although whether they will get it or not is a moot point.

B|C POWER PLANT
 F0R DAWSON

The mammoth power plant of the pany is complete. The machinery has been tested by several short runs the last few days. and tomorrow morning will begin steady work with a good load of power for dredges on the nearby creeks.
 This plant has cost in round num- bers, says General Manager Thrus- ton. $2.0O0.000. This sum represents the purchase and installation of equipment and material of various kinds al the power station and along the power line. but by no means. he states, covers any portion of the pur- chase price of the company's hold ings in Dawson.
 The plant" says Mr. Thruston. lis complete and every part has been tested and found perfect All the boilers and machinery are in most satisfactory condition. The pidliJ ColIipiett VIII generate 5,VoH kilowatt units. At present We shall generate 2,00O units.
 No finer plant ever came into the North and few as good are to be found serving in any locality. The size of some of the equipment may be better understood when l say no larger boilers are made in the world. Those on the Mauretania. the giantess of Atlantic liners, are of the same size.
 The capacity of our full plant can be better understood when l say il is capable of driving 30 dredg- es of the size of those used near Dawson by the Yukon Gold Company. Those dredges have a capacity of 2,00O cubic yards daily.
 When all our furnaces are going they will burn 330 tons of coal daily.
 This plant is on Coal creek fl miles from Dawson, and 12 miles from the Yukon river The first piece of equipment for the plant was laid down on the river bank at Coal Creek Landing July 1.

TO PROTECT THE POLICE

In order to protect the police in the performance of their duty, and to insure the preservation of law and order, the city council has caused an ordinance to be drafted which makes it a crime for any person to commit an assault upon any peace officer In addition the ordinance provides that any citizen shall. when called upon, go to the aid of any police officer.
 The ordinance is the direct result of a recent charge of assault, where in it was shown that there were no means of punishing a person or per sons guilty of assault upon police officers.
 The ordinance was passed without discussion, and is now in force

 Major Amakcr was introduced by Earl Crutcher as man of vast means and interests in Louisiana He immediately opened negotiations with Ferguson and Carter for pros pecting lay on Glen Association with the privilege of taking up the option if the lay looked promising They were to have the use of certain ma chinery. and according to the Idit- arOd Pioneer. the major hinted that there would be million dollars available if the ground turned out satisfactory. Amaker and Crutcher were then To put up $50,0OO
 Ii is alleged that while these ne gotiations were pending. but before the agreements were drawn up. Messrs. Amaker and Crutcher began scouting for money. II is said that tue l"O StulItIIltH dlIbIOdtntu MISS Dot Browning and received from her $290 as first payment on 5000 for a quarter interest in the lay
 The major then returned to Idita- rod City.

 Earl Crutcher, sponsor for the ma jor, says that the latter received a most urgent message stating that his father was dead, and he had left post haste to look after the vast es- tates.
 What will be the outcome none can vet tell. The major may come back and carry through the deal. If so all will be well. If not, Miss Browning will have to exchange $25O in cash for the same value in experience.

MUST JET TITLES
 FUR LOTS

IL seems to be the impression among a large number of property holders that il is not necessary for them to obtain titles to their city property. That is untrue If persons who own city property want to re tain their holdings they must make out an application for a title
 The city of Fairbanks is an incor- porated town. and should any lot owners neglect to secure their titles before date to be named later by the town trustee, their property will be sold 10 cover the expenses of the survey trusteeship. etc
 So far some s4.0oO has been receiy- ed by MT. Ray in his capacity of trustee. in payment for titles.
 The town trustee is frequently ask ed by applicants to make out their applications for them. This is beyond the trustees province. although he has been doing so on several oCea- sions. In future all persons should make out their applications them selves. or get some friend or ac- quaintance to do it for them. Mir. Ray wishes it to be known that he will have to refuse to perform this service, as he has a great deal of other work to do in connection with the townsite
 Application blanks are supplied to all applicants gratis. so proving title and filling out an application should not be d difficult matter.
