DISAS-
 TROUS YEAR

Cleveland, Jan. 16-The year 1913 was the most disastrous year the Great Lakes shipping interests have suffer ed in hte history of nav gation. Two hundred and fifty six persons perished and $7OOO,OOO would not cover the property and damage to vessels. The storm of November 8 and g was the princi- pal cause of this disastrous season. These two days alone took a toll Of PA lives and caused loss of $B,- 45,OO2O to vessel owners and under writers. The hurricane which sent ships either to the bottom or upon shore to pound to pieces, caused a loss in vessels of $2,675,OOO and in cargo S3,75O,OOO. Up to this time the lakes had taken a toll Of only 12 lives, seven of those in the blowing up of the steamer E. M. Peek, at Racine, Wise, June Il. During the season over fifty vessels were lost, among them being som of the largest and best steel steam CTS built for fresh water navigation, the H. A. Hanna, jr., Turret Chief Wexford and the Regina.

ALTERATIONS
  T0 nARIPOSA

The Mariposa of the Alaska steam ship company's northern passenger fleet, which has recently undergone a thorough oVerhauling in Seattle presented an entirely different ap- pearance on her arrivaal in Skagway yesterday morning. Among the al terations are accommodations for twenty six additional passengers, of ficers quarters on the boat deck' a lounging room and the only jail aboard a vessel plying the Pacific. The Mariposa now resembles the Nome liner Vnctoria and the North western.
 The officers quarters have been moved from the saloon deck to the boat deck just behind the pilot house; the old intermediate cabins in the after part of the vessel have been taken out and fourteen two berth staterooms constructed; an additional social hall has been built, and a large room with six berths converted into jail for carrying prisoners and insane persons betwee Alaska and outside ports.
 The jail is provided with iron barred windows and door. In the past, prisoners and insane persons in charge of deputy United States marshals hvae occupied first-cabin accommodations while being taken from northern ports to coast cities.
 The Alameda is now in the dock at Seattle undergoing the same al- terations as were made on the Mar iposa.

BIB SHIPMENT
 OF CATTLE

On November 18th las, E. Vagho passed through Skagway on his way home to Vancouver after having spent six weeks in Dawson investi- gating into the advisability of ship ping live stock from the outside in to the northern interior. MT. Nag- lin said to 8 representative of the Daily Alaskan at that time that he had reached a favorable conclusion and would, early in the new year, in company with his partner in the venture, John Conta, of Vancouver, bring in at least 100 head of cat tie for the Chisana market via Skag- way, thence over the Whitehorse- Kluane lake road. From the follow ing which appeared in the Vancouv- CT World of January 9th it seems that Mir. VagHo has not changed his intentions as to the shipment, but will take the White river route after leaving Whitehorse instead O. that by way of Kluane lake.
 "E. yagIo and Mir. John Conta are making preparations to ship one hundred and fifty head of cattle from this port to Skagway and thence up to Whitehorse and into the Chisaua camp by way of the White ryier route.
 John Conta will superiutend the shipment after it leaves Skagway. Mir. Vaglio is in the south now on the lookout for cattle, and will have the herd here early in April. MT. Conta, who is one of the proprietors of the London Hotel in this city, will see that they go north early in May. He will also see that they go in over the Canadian trail.
 Although the White River and Yukon Railway people have been shipping in hay and other supplies, no cattle have gone in yet. It is the purpose of MT. Conta to drive these cattle in over the summer trail to Chitenda City, and there to sell them as beef
 MT. Conta is far from being cheechako. He was in the Klondike before the big rush began and oper- ated a dairy in Dawson City in the year '96. This will not be the first stampede that he has taken part in. He has already visited the Chisana country and thinks that there is a big find there.
 "Other shippers are getting ready to send supplies from Vancouver, and even some United States deal CTS in supplies are beginning to look with favor on the Canadian routes to the diggiuEs since the fatalities have increased on the Mccarthy trail over the glacier from Cordova to the Chisaua."

NEW DEPARTURE
 FOR FARMERS

Beach, N. D., Jan. 16-At a meet ing held here recently, plans were materialized which will rseult in the construction of the first electric railway in the state to be financed and operated by farmers. The line Jill run from Baker, Mont, through Dennis, N. D., Carlyle, Alpha, Will Hams to Beach. The proposition is meeting with enthusiastic endorse- ment throughout the entire commun- ity. An agreement has been enter ed into whereby farmers within miles of the road pay S1 for every acre of land they own; those with in five miles 75 cents per acre and those within eight miles 50 cents an acre. The subscriptions are to be void if the road Is not in operation within a given period.

NOT LIKELY TO
 COME TO OUR ASSISTANCE

Washington, Jan. 16-Chairma William c. Houston says that it is not likely that Congress will pass any legislation to assist the Terri torial government to collect Terri torial taxes. He thinks it probable that Congress will take the position that the Territorial and Federal gov ernment functions should be kept as widley separate as the laws will per nit. He says:
 Attorney General James c. Me Reynolds in a written opinion holds that the Alaska Legislature exceed ed it's authority when it prescribed that the tax collection duties should be performed by Federal officers of that Territory. The territory, think, must find some other means of collecting it's taxes"

LlD'S MODEL
 IS A SUCCESS

San Francisco, Jan. 16-Frederic Thompson, promoter of hte Toyland Grown Up concession at the Panama Pacific International Exposition, tri- cd scores of engineers of world wide fame in an effort to find one who could work out a design for me- chanical man, sixty feet high. All failed. Thompson, in a whimsical mood, told his idea to his twelve year old office boy and ordered the lad in jest-to go home and make working model. The boy, believing Thompson was in earnest, got busy and his model was so successful that the sixty foot man will be made fror the lads original drawing.

THE SCOTS ARE
 LONG LIVED

Washington, Jan. 16--Either the native hardness of the Scot or his adaptaDility to our climate makes his countrymen lead all others for longoTity in the United 9taFeS, ac- cording to figures recently compil- ed by the Department of Commerce In the territory covered bv the cen sus reports, 4,5S5 natiyse of Scot land died in the United States in 1910, and only one seventy-tnird of these deaths were of children uIder ten years of age, while about two- fifth of the deaths of natives in the same territory occurred thus early in life.
 One thirty-sixth, or less than 8 per cent of the number of natives who died, had attained the age of .S5 or more years, while the deaths of Scotclmen at this advanced age formed about one-fourteeuth of the total number Of deaths, or about : per cert. Of the 46,431 Irishmen who died in America m 1910, only GO O. them were less than 10 years cid, a percentage of less than two tenth of one percent, while 2,5SS, or about four and a half per cent of the deaths, occurred after the S5 year mark had been passed. The fig ures for the deaths of native born Americans, in point of age, show deDlorable lack of protection of the childs health, or lack Of native har- dlness and resistance to the ray ages of disease.
