"Skookum Jim'' Mason

Voyage of Kndk scovrer brings many "reminiscences the ex
 citing times of '98.
The Discovery.

Most interesting, perhaps be- cause of its effect on the mining blood of the territory, is the story of the Klondike which brings up the technical point which makes Skookum Jim the Real Discov- erer". In 1896, Geo. Cormack, formerly of Illinois and now ot Seattle, Washington, with Skook- um Jim and Dawson Charlie were leisurely making their way over the upper Yukon country, trapping, hunting and prospecting. While the party was camped at Bonanza Creek, tributary to the klondike River, Skookum Jim layed down on the exposed bed rock at the waters edge to take a drink. In the crevices of the rocks he noticed the gold particles and taking up pinch of the metal took ii to Cor. mack who told him to get more,

New Strike is Latest Speculation

On the Pacific Coast Boat. Cur acao, Monday morning, was d mo- ted Alaska indian, "Skookum linn" Mason, The Real Discoverer of the klondike, who is probably making a visit to his brother-in.law in Seattle, George Cormack, retired miner to whom, the discovery of the famous placer mines is usually credited. The passage south of 'Skookum Jim" brings up afresh to old timers the stirring times and experiences of 'o8 when the horde of gold seekers who mushed inside up the Stikine, up the Yukon, and over Chilkoot Pass, all bound for the rich diggins which were found on tributaries to the klondike Riv- CT in 1896 by Cormack, Skookum Jim and Dawson Charlie, another native of Cormack party.

Stampedins Toward New DigsingsNear
 Teslin Lake.
Advices from Telegraph Greek say half the population has hit the trail. One paaty gone up Stik- inc via Wransell.
Juneau Merchants
 Are Some Outfitters.

Two different communication from Telegraph Creek to citizens in Wrangell, convey the report that the inhabitants of that place, both indian and white are stamped ing to new diggings in beyond Dease Lake in direction of Teslin Lake and probably in the Nahlin River Region.
 A recent Juneau paper carries an article relative to a strike near Teslin in which several Juneau parties and Skookum Jim, klon- dike discoverer have reported that gold has been found oh five creeks and that three hundred claims have already been located, Teslin Lake is abont I3o miles from Telegraph Creek and it is probable that the strike reported in Juneau and the one causing the fever in Telegraph are one and the same.
 Monday morning, on the Cura- cao, a party of four men from Ju- neau, with four dog teams, sleds and outfits? landed here and de- parted for the Stikine as soon as they could engage a boat. The party, consisting of Fred Crawford C. A. Mckluskie, A. Marion and Joe McNaughton, purchased their outfit in Juneau and their grub stake looked like ffeightng ex- pedition, One item alone consist ed of an entire case of bacon which for merely travelling on a six day trail could have beef1 cut down to few pounds. Othef incidentals but necessafies such as proper footwear and clothing for the trail were in the other extreme, some of their wants being supplied here be- fore their hurried departure,
 Stikine The Proper Route.
 In the event of there being a per- manent influx of miners toward Teslin Lake, The Stikine via Wrangell is bound to prove the popular route. Only last year the Canadian Government, cut a trail from Telegraph Greek to Dease Lake which is only seventy miles Teslin and each mile that the strike lies southeast from Teslin makes a mile less of hafd travel for the mushet who goes in this way.

THE DEAR HOMELAND.
BY William Rooney

There's an old green isle Oh the sun
sets rim,
Where hearths are lonely and eyes are
dim,
Where fields glow fair in Tie Autumn
tide
And Summers thron'd on the noun
tainside.
'Tis the dear homeland of the
scattered Gael;
The land of the cause that shall
never fail;
The green old isle Of the wistful
eyes
Where hope in the Future never
Dies
There's a lonely isle in the western
sea
That thoughts are turned to constant
~,
That blazCs far meath the austraI
vines
And still CLOVIS bright where the North
Star shines. ..
'Tis the dear old homeland of the
Irish race,
Whose mem'ry fortune nor time
can chase:
A land of sorrowing, tears and
signs
Where hope in the Future never
Dies.
There's a distorted isle mid the At,
lantic waves,
A land OF memories. shrines and
graves,
That glortcs even in days long gone
And dreams of other days coming on!
'Tis the dear homeland of the good
and true
Who never paled ut the work to do;
Where days last beam on the
mountain lies
Where hope in the Future never
Dies.
There's a dear old isle from the world
apart;
That never nurs'd u despliring heart.
Strong in the trust of hG' childrcn's
truth,
Proud OF her eternal youth
'Tis in the dear homeland; our own
green isle
That still, still watches for Free.
