An insane Jap tried to burn the launch Traveller, while being taken from Kenai to Knik recently. He was left by the guards few minutes when they thought he was asleep, and few min- utes later they noticed smoke coming from the social hall and on inyestiRa. tion found that be had started fire on the floor among some paper and rags. It took all the crew to fight the fire and subdue the prisoner.
 Where, counting miners and wood choppers, nearly two hundred men were employed at the Pueblo mine last week, less than two dozen are now at work, operations having practically ceased at II Monday night of this week says the Whitehorse Star. Sixty-seven men, mostly all miners, came to town Tuesday and left next day for Skag- way, the railroad making a rate for the trip of S10 which the men demanded, otherwise they would have walked over the road. They were all heading for Juneau and Treadwel. All the men with families at the Pueblo were kept on and will be engaged at keeping the pumps working and performing neces- sary work about the mine. It is not thought any further ore shipments will be made until conditions, traceable di- rectly to the present European war, undergo some change.
 NOME.-Harrowing tales of exposure and hardsbips on WranRell island were told by the survivors of the Stefansson exploring schooner Karluk, who were brought here by the revenue cutter Bear, after being rescued by the schooner Kiug & Winge Iuclndiug an Eskimo man, wife and two children, there are II survivors. The party land ed on the island on March 12, with about 70 days rations. Food was ex- hausted June 4. They lived on any thing they could get hold of after that. They killed three polar bears, number of seals and some birds. They made stove from coal oil cans, built boats from driftwood, and could not even get salt water for their meat, on account of the icebergs George Stewart Maaloch, geologist of Ontario, and Bjarne Ma men, topographer, of Christiania, died of scurvy. Throughout their precari- ous existence, the party retained black and white cat they had picked up at Victoria, B. C., last year, and the mas cot is now at Nome. When the Karluk was wrecked by the ice north of Herald island, last January, the party divided and started for Wrangell island. The party led by Dr. Forbes Mackay evi- dently changed the plans and tried to reach tue Siberian shore: When they later changed their course for Wran- gell island again, they were caught in heavy blizzard, which opened the ice, and it is believed the eight in the party have been swallowed up. On the night of September the King & Winge reached Wrangell island and sent up sky rockets. There was no response from the castaways, because they were asleep, but the next morning they heard the whistles of the schooner. Four Es- kimos found a lead through the ice in a skin boat and brought back four of the survivors near the shore to the schooner The King & Winge then made for the other side of the island and picked up the remaining casta@ays.

Frank Herman, one of the big opera tors of the Niziua country, arrived in Cordova recently and he states that the hydraulic operators of that section have had one of the best seasons in the history of the camp and that all are making good.
 Democrats in the Fourth judicial division have put up the following leg islative ticket: For territorial senator, Thomas A. McGowan, of Fairbanks; representatives, Wm. T. Burns, of Fox; E. W. Griffin, of Fairbanks; V. R. Me- Donald, of Ruby, and James Hastings, of Koyukuk.
 Taku Jim, a we'll known Indian, was electrocuted near Young's wharf, at Juneau, last Friday The mast of bis boat in landing came in contact with the high tension wires which are strung along the beach. He was grasping the steel wire supports to the mast at the time and received a shock which caused instant death.
 DAwsoN.-Nearly S1,OOOin virgin gold dust was stolen from two pokes be- longing to Ed. Peterson, miner from the Koyukuk, who boarded the steamer Yukon at Beaver landing on his way to Dawson. Detective work by the captain and purser resulted in obtaining con fessiou from one of the walters. All but sixteen ounces was recovered. Pet. ersou left yesterday for the coast.
 It is estimated that the output of the Iditarod camp will easily reach the S3, 100000 mark this season, and if the water holds ont it may be considerably larger. For the last few weeks, much rain has fallen in this district, and there is now abundant water for all the mining operations. Upper Flat creek is unusually active, due, in large meas ure, to the operations of the Yukon Gold company.
 The White Pass & Yukon Railroad Company has warned all Austrians aud Germans that they must not attempt to go through the Yukon river on the company's steamers, and that if they do the Canadian authorities will take and hold them as prisoners of war, says a Fairbanks dispatch to the Seattle P.L Itis understood that the com- pauy's Austrian and German employees will not be permitted to leave the Yu kon at the close of navigation.
 After figuring for more than year on the feasibility and advisability of putting a power system through Eagle, Circle and Fairbanks districts, the Canadian company, of which Joe Boyle is at the head, has decided to abandon the proposition for the present at least, says the Fairbanks Times. One of the principal reasons for abandoning the proposition at this time, IS the ugnten- ing of the money market in London. and the general unrest throughout the whole world on account of the disturb ances in Europe. Originally, the com. pany figured on putting in a large cen- tral power plant on the upper Yukon, generate ali the power there, and then transmit it to the districts of the Inte- rior by heavy feed wires. As soon as the railroad has been started to the In- terior, and conditions are settled, it is probable that the matter will be taken up again, and if it is considered feasi. ble then, may be put through.

Mrs. Maude E. Gilson, of Snohomisb, Wash, is anxious for information in regard to her husband, Chris or c. E.. Gnson, who disappeared from his home April IA, 1914, and left presumably for Alaska. Gilson is a logger by occupa- tion and is supposed to be working in some logging camp in the North.
 Col. F. W. Vaille, superintendent of railway mail service for Washington and Alaska, has announced that the last dispatch of unrestricted mail to the interior of Alaska had left Seattle on September 10th. After that date only frst.class mail and a limited amount of second-closs mail will be carried to interior points. The mail sent on Septem Der 10th will be taken to Fairbanks, Tanana and contiguous territory. Fourth.class, or parcel post mail, will be carried on this trip for the last time this season. Christmas pres ents intended for residents in the inte- rior districts should have been pur- chased and dispatched before Septem- Der 10th if they were intended Co reach their destination in time for the holi- days.
 Charged with the murder of Domini co Melis, Romillio Caesari will be brought to trial at Whitehorse on Sept. 24th. The crime with which Romilio Caesari is charged is believed to have been committed in or near Whitehorse early in the month of February of the present year. He and the murdered man, Dominica Melis, occupied the Bissler apartment house most of the winter. In February Melis disappeared and shortly thereafter Caesari left for Dawson, walking over the trail. On June II a body trussed io small poles was found floating in the river at this place. When rescued it was completely identified as that of Melis. Caesari was arrested at Dawson few days later. A number of articles known to have belonged to the dead man were found in bis possession when he was arrested. It is expected the trial will last from five to seven days.-Star.
 
 The Detroit Herald of the 5th inst. says: civilian l.. Distin, who for l6 years was surveyor-general and ex- oficio secretary of the territory of Alaska, is visiting friends in Detroit after attending the G. A. R. Incidental ly, "General" Distin, as he is known in Alaska, claims the honor of having coaie farther than any other veteran to attend the encampment. Although he left Juneau in the latter part of last winter, he has been taking the journey by easy stages. paying many visits. He expects soon to go to Chicago, and then for an extended visit in Quincy, ILL, his old home, before returning to Alaska. He is an enthusiastic booster for the land of the far north. Alaska be de clared, is a very progressive country, with a glorious future before her. The new government railroad proposed, will do much for the further development of the country. It is not a country for the poor man unless he is young and strong, ready to undertake hardships and endure sacrifices. For men like that it holds out large rewards. As for the people there, nothing too good can be said of them; they are of the salt of the earth"
