Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed CON
dition of the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this ube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inhamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
To- any case OF Deafness Caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

U. $. GEODETIC SURVEY
 FLEET FOR ALASKA WATERS

The fleet or U. 5. geodetic sur vcy vessels stationed on the Pacific Coast will be engaged largely this year with work in Alaska waters Of the six vessels in the fleet the Yukon is now In the KIskokwim where she laid up for the winter; the McArthur will work around Metlakahtla; the Gedney will work on the west coast of Prince Of Wales island; the Taku, which wintered at Cordova, will work around Prince William Sound; the Patterson now OF the way from Hawaii, will go to Unalaska, and the Explorer, will put iu the sea son or @ part of it around Glacier bay and the ley straits section.
 Very probably the survey will be provided with 8 wire drag for the work, for the bill is now before congress. This will be a distinct ad- vantage in doing the work and make it absolutely reliable when once done. This drag consists of a sunken wire at depth of 50 feet or any required depth for that mat ter, on which floats with flags mounted are attached. Launches are then connected with each end Of the sunken cable and 1t is lowed through the channel or bay sought to be charted. If an obstruction is met the flag attached to the float is dipped serving notice, and then the obstruction is properly mark ed. Once the waters have been drag gcd in this manner they will be made perfectly safe.

FISHING
 SEASON $ HERE

For the past week or so Skag- way has been experiencing the most delightful weather imagin- able, and that it is being taken ac- vantage oI to the full by the people of the town is evidenced by the number of them who may be seen upon the streets at any hour of the day, or may be observed busiIy engaged in planting flowers and gardening around their homes,
 The warm, sunshiny days are ideal for fishing, too, end almost auy morning an early riser may see numerous local sportsmeE starting cut for the adjacent lakes and streams panoplied for tic conquest and capture of the shy and el- ustye Jimmy deuizens that make their habitat therein.
 There are so many good places for trout fishing in the near vicinity of skagway it is hard to recommend one as being preferable to another, this question being more easily de leruiueu by the fisherman himself. r the small, delicious brook trout is desired Lake Dewey and the small stream which serves IS its outlet into Lynn canal are excel lent points to visit, or tn small stream known as Mill creek, on ,hc east side of the valley, and which has its sourcg in a living, ice cold spring near the w. p. & Y. Route shops, or ecross the bay at Burro creek, where a braw- ling mountain stream cascades its way over it's boulder srewn bed to the sea.
 If Dolly Warden or salmon trout are in mind the Skagawg river of fers excellent opportunities, and fishermen may be seen daily com ing home with catches, individual members of which often weigh sey- erM pounds and have length in pro portion to their weight

LAST HOPE NINE AT RAND
LOOKS LIKE A BONANZA

From present indications the Last
Hope mine, located about four miles
southeast of the old camp of Bovard
in Mineral county, will eventually de-
velop into a real bonanza, says the
Carson Appeal. The property is
owned and operated by three men
who have through adversely stayed
with it, developing as their means
would permit for the past five years.
They are now about to reap the re-
ward of their efforts.
Shortly after the boom at Raw
hide quoted down the three Char
leys, Koegle, Pike and Huber, start
ed to prospect the low hills in the
vicinity of Bovard in Last Hope can
yon, and being satisfied with the
surface indications located their
present holdings which they have
continued to develop through sink
ing a shaft that is now down 225
feet. From this drifts were run on
the ledge at various depths with the
hope of opening up a continuation
of the shipping ore which had been
uncovered in small quantities at diff
ferent levels.
A few weeks ago in a drift from
the bottom of the shaft pay ore was
encountered far beyond the dreams
of the plucky miners. With twelve
feet of commercial ore that will av-
erage about $50 per ton in gold and
a streak better than a foot wide

is NO OCCASION FOR
MUCH EXCITEMENT

G.. L. Sheldon and O.. F. Harvey,
who accompanied M. Fl. Breen to
his Bull canyon gold property Mon
day, returned last evening.
Mr.. Sheldon says that while there
is some free gold to be seen in the
Monitor group owned by Breen, lobe
and Osterlund. there is nothing to
cause an excitement. The values
are found in a hard, dry, silicious
uuartzite, with a limie contact a
short distance further up the noun
tain. The property is at an eleva-
ton of 5000 feet, the mountain rails
ing 1000 feet higher just above it.
The quartzite in the settling of the
range, has been subjected to great
pressure, which has fractured it in
all directions. This has allowed the
thermal waters which evidently car
ried gold values to circulate from the
near schist-quartZite contact and
have replaced to some extent the
quartzite along the line of these frac-
lures and crevases, these being very
irregular. The water deposited a
hard bull white quartz" from a
to, in some instances. 8 feet or
4 feet in thickness, but rarely con-
tinuous any distance.
Sheldon and Harvey also visited
the Blaine and Buster properties in
the Granite district. Two men had
just returned to do some more work
on the Blaine; a recent cave-in near
the breast will delay them a week or
ten days.-ExpOsitOr.
