Yukon Soldiers
 Have Dog Mascot

The Yukon Boyle Detachment has a mascot, says the Dawson News. The luck giver is the genuine north ern article. the real friend and companion which accompanies the Yukon prospector and helps bring success to every man who plunges into the Arctic frontier. It is dog a huge husky, powerful and typi- cal.
 The big dog was purchased by George Williams, Yukon councillor, yesterday from Bill Ferguson. the Glacier creek mail carrier. No finer husky ever walked the tundra or the snowpacked trail. Bill hated to give up the dog, but the boys of the detachment took fancy to the fellow, and would not go without him. They are sure he will give them luck, and that there can be no such a thing as lose when the big fellow is present as mascot
 The dog which is to go as mas cot is known as Jack. He was born at Fortymile, and was the property, when pup, of Wilkinson, who was telegrapher there at the time. Jack is justly proud of the new honor conferred on him, and already is being fed on the fat of the land. The boys are having great brass collar made for him. It will be studded with brads and tricked out with the colors of the detachment. possibly gold indicative of the Yu- kon's great product. After being fully rigged up Jack will be ready for all photographers.

 On the Emperor's birth. January 2, 1859, there was conjunction of Saturn and Mars in Taurus. denot- ing the loss of property, the ruin of the houses of Hohenzollern and the destruction of the German empire in 1913 or in 1914.
 The presence of Jupiter presages Emperor William as the last Ger man emperor of the Hohenzollerns. Aries, in the horoscope. means vio- lence. The final passage is most striking: "If there is war in 1914 between France and Germany the former will be victorious"

He is considering en- gineering Jack Dunn, present mana ger of the Baltimore Internationals to handle the club. although Dunn has not yet been signed
 Much of the present trouble is be- ing laid at Chances feet. The Peerless Leader" has been in con- stant fret during the last few weeks over the lame showing of the High flanders.

 It Is believed that the New York management will be glad to make a change, as Chances contract calls for such a large salary that the club, at the best, can scarcely hope to break even on a years play with conditions much better than they have been this season.

some or the Alaska natives who are being educated at the Indian school at Chemawa. Oregon, not far i from the capital city of that state, are proving to be unusually bright in their studies. The school, it is un- that have Indian blood, and the training they get there is of prac- tical nature
 One of the bright Alaska students at the school is Miss Christine Bos- we'll whose father is white man at Cordova. named William Boswell The following paper on Alaska h. dian girls was read by Miss Boswell at the State Girls Conference at Albany, Oregon, recently:
 My topic, Some Other Girls, doubtless brings before your minds eye a great variety of pictures. You see furclad Eskimo girls: quaint Japanese girls, and their nearby relatives, the Chinese girls; dusky skinned girls of India brown girls of Australia and adjacent island. and still darker skin-peasant girls of Europe. the Spanish maiden in her picturesque costume. and you see your own smartly clad, bright. pro- gressive girls. But the picture that wish to present to you is of my own race. I would still further re- strict you to one little corner of Alaska where is my home.
 CONDITIONS WORSE.
 Before the Copper River railroad was built, the Indians and few white people dwelt peaceably togeth- CT on equal footing, sharing impar- tially the fishing the hunting, and the trading. Then came the rail- road and the town of Cordova was built where the white people have stores and hotel and own and control all the industries. The right of-way of the railroad passed direct ly through the little Indian village. SO the company built houses for the natives at another site about two and a-half miles from Cordova. Their old homes had been substantial structures. Their new houses are mere shacks and small ones at that, carelessly constructed of cheap ma terial by contract labor. The winds blow through the cracks, and in stormy weather the inhabitants suf- fer with cold.
 Since the coming of the white man with innovations of civilization, the Indian men cannot make enough during the summer to support their families through the winter Hunt ing is limited to a period of few months. consequently the fare of the Indians is more frugal than for merly. The women and girls make baskets and beautiful moccasins for sale. Grass for making baskets is scarce and hard to get. Moccasins are made of seal skins and sold to Cordova merchants at $1 pair. The next day these same moccasins appear in the show case price mark ed from $250 to $500 pair For the last four years. during the fish ing and canning season, Chinamen have been transported free of charge to Cordova. Enough Chinamen to do the work are brought and there is little left for the Indian men to do. After the work is over. the Chinamen are carried away by the same steamship company that brought them.
 coRDoVA DESCRIBED.
 "Cordova has a good modern public school. The rooms are all spacious and convenient. but as yet no provi- sion has been made for the regular attendance of the Indian children. The few who have attended public school have proved themselves bright and adaptable.

 Mines Are Rich.
 Captain James Alexander. who Is operating his gold quartz property between Carcross and Atlin. accom- panied by Mrs. Alexander, arrived in town Monday evening and were guests at the White Pass hotel for few days, says the Whitehorse Star.
 The property which Captain Alex ander owns and operates is the famous Engineer group of claims and 1t is proving one of the richest mines in the North, if not on the continent Alexander working only on a small scale, a force of but fifteen men being employed and only two-stamp mill, an average of more than three pounds of gold is being milled daily. The first ship ment of gold to the Outside was made few days ago when fifty pounds, the result of fifteen and a half days work, constituted the con signment.
 Sufficient development work on the Engineer property has been done to justify the assertion that 1t is gigantic proposition. The ledge is eight feet in width and increases in richness as far down as a shaft has been sunk, 12O feet. The ledge has also been tapped at a depth of 400 feet. How much deeper the ledge extends Is unknown. but there is already enough ore blocked out to produce millions of dollars worth of gold.
 Although the property pays nicely on the small basis on which it is being operated, Captain Alexander contemplates installing additional machinery and increasing mining facilities by another year

 Alaska's Big Output.
 The mineral production for Alas ka in 1913 had a value of $19,413,- 094, according to the United States Geological survey. Of this amount, s15,626.S13 is to be credited to the gold mines. This makes the total value of gold production of Alaska up to the close of 1913, s228, ,392, $40. worth of copper and over s2,000.00 "OTlH Ol SuNeT HdS DeeH produced in Alaska.

Alaska Indian Girl Proves Good Student Tells of the Condition of Her People

! My father Is a white man, but
 he is deeply concerned with the needs of my mothers people. Though
 we live at Cordova, my father often
 visits the Indian village in winter
 Many times he has sent groceries to the village when, upon a visit he found the Indians destitute.
 But would not convey to you the l idea that the Indians complain, or that their lives are altogether void of cheer Some of them attend the l Episcopal church and each Christ mas their children are remembered the same as white children. They accept their fate with cbeerful stoi cism. They are intelligent and even happy, but their ignorance of the i laws of labor is their undoing. Their greatest need is to have a manual education so that they can compete
 'th the white men and the China men.
 You wonder that I have said nothing of the girls of this little tribe. I can say little of them as individuals, for conditions make them an unimportant part of the tribe. II cannot segregate them as a class, from their fathers and mothers and brothers. They do not know the meaning of a girls club or society. They do not have the constant re lining influence of church associa- ton.
 INDIAN OUTLOOK.
 "The story of those of my people who live near my home has much in common with the story of the race | wherever they live. It has been said that If you would know the political and moral condition of the people, ask as to the condition of it's women' This test holds as good in the Indian race as in the white. However, it is not the girls who need especial attention at present so much as the race as whole.
 There is no doubt that the people of the Indian race will some day be influential in the affairs of the country. Then it behooves those of us who are interested in their poli- tical and moral welfare to manifest our interest in practical way. The Young Women's Christian associa- tion has done much in teaching our girls who have come within it's scope
 "The girls, in turn exert bene- ficial influence upon those with whom they associate. Thus lit tie good sown, grows and grows. We, who understand the superior advantages of civilization. realize that the transformation which we so much desire for our people can be brought about only through the in- fluence of Christianity"
