GOOSE WITHOUT SALT
 NOT TO THEIR LIKING

The party which arrived from Mud river Tuesday afternoon last had a very trying experience on the lower river, mistakine the streamcalled the Yentna- Gentna for slough, and journeying up it for several days before they discov- cred their error.
 The Yentna Gentna is big stream flowing into the Iditarod river little below Dikeman. White men consider it to be tributary of the Iditarod, but the Indians say that the Yentna-Gentna is really the Iditarod, and that Iditarod city is on the banks of the Yentna. Gentna.
 However, when the Mua-river party, consisting of Sid Ensor, E. Officer, Fred Woter, A. Vile and w. Critchley were coming back, they saw the mouth of the Yentn2, Gentna, and the current was so sluggish that they took it to be a slough. It looked like cutoff, and they decided to take it in preference to following the meanderings of the Idit- arod. At first the mistake was not no- ticed; there were dncks and geese in abundance, and the party had fine sport. This went on for d day or two, until at last the travellers realized they were on the wrong tack. and decided to return the way they had come and fol- low tba rauDlar cO,,rSe
 About this time the provisions ran out, and also the ammunition. But the ducks were shedding their feathers and could not fly far, so the party em- ployed themselves catching birds to keep their larder full. They ran out of salt, and their troubles really com menced. When picked up by the Flyer the only thing they had to eat was a roast goose cooked without salt It lay in the bottom of the boat, neglected and forsaken, for none could tackle the delicacy without the usual condiment
 When the Flyer arrived in port it was d hungry and forlorn-looking bunch

MAJOR AND MRS. STRONG
 BACK FROM LONG VACATION

Major J. F. A. Strong, accompanied by Mrs. Strong, arrived last Monday on the steamer M. l.. Washburn, after an extended tour of the United States and Europe. During their absence they visited England, Germany, France and the countries bordering on tho Mediterranean, and crossed the Ameri- can continent no less than four times.
 Major Strong had arrived at Seattle from his European tour, before he heard that he had been selected to rep resent Alaskan Democrats at the Balti- more convention; but notwithstanding the great distance he and his wife had already covered, they repaired to the convention city, where Major StSong cast his vote for Woodrow Wilson.
 Major Strong says that the election of Woodrow Wilson is a certainty, and iiC is equally certain that the senate will be Democratic.
 Major and Mrs. Strong will remain here about two weeks.

THREE DAYS GOING UP RIVER
 FOUR HOURS COMING DOWN

Among the arrivals from the Kusko- kwim last week was George Freder;cks. the Georgetown roadhouse man, who is here in connection with the Campbell case. Alr, Fredericks took Deputy Marshal J. R. kelday down the Kusko- kwim to Bethel, when the marshal had to go after Little Waska No. and other witnesses and interpreters They were all brought upriver on his launch
 1t will be remembered that George Fredericks carried Professor J. F Newsom, the geologist, when the latter paid bis visit to the Aniak. On that occasion Mr. Fredericks got up the Aniak river for a distance of about 57 miles in three days, while the return journey to the mouth occupied only four hours. The professor was left to negotiate the journey to the diggings in d pollng boat and spent some time look ing over the district. Mr. Fredericks picked him up again when coming up the huskokwim on his last trip, and left him at Georgetown.
