 Cordova is quiet at present, as is Sew ard. Valdez is the only live place in Southwestern Alaska. Chitina is false alarm. It has no mining to back it and depends entirely on the Fairbanks mail and passenger traffic.

Tofty City, March 23.-(Special Cor espondence. )-This morning at about l o'clock the town was threatened with a serious fire, but 1t resulted in nothing more than the destruction of small cabin and it's contents and slight injuries to our friend Billy Vaughn. William had just retired and left the candle burning i'll expectation of the return of Omar Riley for the night. In the mean time Mir. Riley had retired in Kelly's bunkhouse. The town at once organiz- ed a fire brigade under the leadership of John Bernard, who stayed with it all night; and we are indebted to him for the fact that Vachon's and the Drum mond building were not wiped out. Mr. Vaughn lost a very considera ble stock of provisions.
 Billy Stewart and Jack Mckenzie are recent arrivals from the Kuskokwim.
 Bob Horn has left the camp for Cinema Hot Springs. He is not improving so rapidly as expected since he left the hos pital in Gibbon. Dr. Harris is looked upon in our camp as godsend for all that have gone to the hospital from here have returned as new men. The latest, R. A. Quinn, looks and feels like a new man. The same with Richards and Horn. Jack Miles contemplates starting for the hospital tomorrow, there to be treated. Mir. Miles is an old-time pros pector in this vicinity and is liked by all, and it is with regret that we bid him goodby. But we feel assured that few days under the care of Dr. Harris will restore him as good as new.
 Marshal Quiner is the busiest man in camp at present, looking for the Tarfa- gans.
 Michael Joseph Sullivan has been lost, strayed or stolen for few weeks
 Tom Lochead has also strayed away without bell on.
 Cyanide Blacksand is also taken to Fairbanks; being physically disabled, he must be carried by the marshal's dog team.
 The town misses the population, but is being favored with consignment from Japan-General Nogi and valet and Lady Ruby Hurokilppornoglishtoo.
 MT. Broom has left for Fairbanks on business. In his care is Mir. Horn.
