 The body of a man was found on saud bar of the White river about one mile below Canon City. From the ap- pearance of the body it is believed that the man had been dead between two aud three months. A search of the body revealed the fact that he was member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, and belonged to Dillon Aerie No. 1897, at Dillon, Montana, and that bis name was James Lindberg. It would appear that Mr. Lindberg was behind his partners on the way into the new strike, and when be reached the crossing where the others had forded, the river had raised and in attempting to follow their trail he was drowned. Iu addition to tue papers found on the unfortunate man's person, S51 in cashs a watch and an F. O. E. charm was also found.
 A most novel experience, that of hunting moose from an automobile, is not every day encountered, even in Alaska, yet such was the fortune of motoring that overlook James Barrack yesterday while he was out on little spin to the creeks. He was going along Engineer creek when he saw two bull moose a short distance from the trail. The animals paid no particular atten- ton to the car when it passed, and as Mir. Barrack was unarmed, be went to the Owl roadhouse, obtained a rifle and motored back to where he had seen the animals. They were in practically the same place as when he first saw them, and with little difficulty he got them both. It is said chat he had the animals partly dressed and landed at Fox City within two hours and a half from the time be left Fairbanks.-Fairbanks Times.

When the Hadley ship ment reached there all of the San Fran cisco lumbermen were present to in- spect the Alaska spruce. The result was that it stopped the sale of the Ore- gon and Washington spruce, and the Hadley shipment was pronounced to be far euperiar to any spruce lumber of- fered for sale by either Washington or Oregon. The result is that Foss Bros. $ Go. now have sale for more spruce lumber than they can cut. Of course this work op their part will result in benefit not only to Foss Bros. & O., but to all other Alaska dealers who care to take advantage of it,

 Yukon residents resent the criticism attributed to Emerson Hough, the author, on his return to St. Paul, that the Nortbland is lacking in big game. They say that he travelled only through a narrow strip of country, following the much frequented routes and did not get five miles off the beaten paths of the Mackenzie or the Yukon. Had Hough come three weeks later he would have been able to see tens of thousands of caribou on the hills within thirty miles of Dawson.

 Some coal has been mined in the Matanuska coal fields for a navy fuel test. No test has as yet been made, however, for the very good reason that the coal to be used in furnishing the test is still at the mines and a long dis. tance from tidewater. Until this coal is fed to furnace to generate steam under the boilers of a vessel of the United States navy its value for that purpose remains undetermined. An alysis of the Matanuska fuel warrants the belief that it will serve the purpose as we'll as Pocahontas or New River, both extensively used by our uavy.
