M. B. Clemenger, the chauffer os the Dewey hotel bus, announces that he intends to start 8 "jitney service in skagway similar to that maintained in Seattle and other coast cities and while local con- ditions are such that he will have to charge more than a single "jitney' or nickle for each ride he will place his prices as low as the volume of trade accorded him will justify.
 As a starter he will begin to- morrow night by taking parties to and frorl the masquerade, and the first calls in will be the first served His telephone is No. 8.
 He hopes to get enough patron age to enbIe him to set the charge as low as 50 cents for taking each couple to the ball in the evening and returning them to their homes after the dance.
 Call the "jitney" and save your lady's feet from the snow.

FREE HAD A
 TOUGH TIME

Jake Free, who recently arrived from the Kantisbna, had mighty tough trip coming across. While on the divide, above timber line, in tbe inky blackness of a winter night his sled with his entire outfit and bedding on it, broke through the ice coating of Crooked creek and the man and his dogs followed it int the water. Try as he would, this Sourdough could not get his sled out of the ice.
 He did manage to unhitch his dogs and with them and a part Of his bedding he made shore. There he mushed around to keep from freezing. Running, jumping, stamp ing, working all the time, his clothes soaking wet, this old Sour dough managed to pull through that night, although to him it seemed like Q life time.

 the Anglican church, who has just returned from an extensive mushng trip O? several hundred miles in that region. He says:
 "1Ien are doing winter prospect ing or mining on quite a number of the creeks. The most attractive new placer creek perhaps is John son, where fifteen men are working on claims near discovery They re- port" having 5O-cent pans. The creek is small, but what there is of l it seems quite promising. O. P. Thompson, one of the owners, plans to have a steam scraper in opera ton next summer.
 "A dozen or more men are work ing on Haggert creek, and there are about fifteen at the bridge. The trail from Mayo to Haggert is deep with snow. George Miller recently went to Haggert from Mayo and took over Mrs. Miller and their two children with a dog team and sleigh. It certainly was a task crossing the little traveIed divide with the party. Mrs. Kinsey is the only voman beside Mrs. Miller on the creek. Mrs. Kinsey has a child, thus making three children now there.
 q was at Ethel lake, where the Indians are fishing; on Galena creek, where the silver mining is under way; on Highet, Dublin and other creeks.
 "The Dublin guIch owners are honeful, and some are doing con siderable work. Jack Stewart has 700 feet of tunnel on his properties. He is interested with pr. Catto. Jack plans to make a trip outside before long.
 q was six and a half days mush- inc in from Mayo, and came via .Flgt creek and down the Klon- dike. I travelled the same route as Jack Pickering with the exception that I steered clear of haystacks' Jack seemed to think I had a hard time mushing through a little wet stretch of trail, but I was provided with a change of foot wear and the like, and am not so much of a cheechaco but what knew what to do. Besides, my little experience was not quite so chilly, I believe, as was Jacks when he fell through the ice.
 "I met Bunell mushing from DaT- son for Mayo. He was maxim" good time.
 q shall be in Dawson until Christmas, after which I shall Vis- it the local creeks, and in January I shall go to Rude. ."-Dawson News Dec, 17,

Fire at Talent this morning de-
stroyed the planning mill of Messrs.
Froman and High, located in build
ing which is the property of John
Cameron, formerly OF this city but
now located at Table Rock. The
property was a total loss, no insur-
ance being held. The loss is estimat-
ed at $4,000. Fire is said to have
started from the explosion OF a gaso-
line tank. New machinery has re-
Gently been installed and a large
amount of lumber was also on hand

1t would appear that this is the
slack time of the year for the society
editor, from the appearance of this
column. Let us assure you that such
is far from being the case. In fact,
we now have to rustic about twice
as hard to round up the few little
items we do get. Now in order to
make this Society page" at all read
able we will require aid, succor and
assistance from everybody who en-
tertains or who goes to an entertain
ment of any kind during this summer
season of a few formal entertain
ments and many informal affairs. We
naturally do not hear of many little
park gatherings, auto parties and
trips INDUCED in by Ashland people,
but such little items make interest
ing reading and will be much appre-
ciated by the public and most highly
appreciated by the Tidings.

DEPOT DOINGS.

All of the extra engine men have
been called in to handle the increased
traffic.
Fred Hansen, assistant superin-
tendent of the Portland division, was
in the city last week attending to
business affairs.
Ed Dews, switch fireman. is back
on the job after an extensive layoff
spent in the employ of the Weed
Lumber Company railroad.
The annual migration of workers
to the harvest fields of eastern Wash
ing ton and Oregon has begun, north
bound freight and passenger trains
being loaded with the wanderers.
Roundhouse Clerk Charles Van
Buskirk is busy man these days,
receiving the congratulations of his
host of friends, the occasion being
the arrival OF new addition to his
family.
The five Southern Pacific owned
railroads in Oregon are now under
one management. The consolidation
was effected July /. The lines in
Oregon other than the main line will
be run as branch lines.
Verl Barnthouse, senior member
of the local force of call boys, went
to Dunsmuir last week, where he
took the examination for switch fire
man. From the California division
point he journeyed to Yreka, where
he will spend few days visiting.
Nearly all of the trains which pass
through carry four day coaches Lo-
cal officials attribute this to the fact
that many of the tourists travel only
in the daytime and stop over night
in cities along the route. The local
hotels are getting a good many Of
these parties.
The influx of Shriners' specials
promises to keep every man in the
employ Of the Southern Pacific,
Shasta division, on the hump during
the next few days. Added to the
greatly increased Exposition traffic
the thirty extra specials will require
the use of all equipment and all avail
able men.
On Tuesday sixteen carloads of

four singles-were unloaded here for
feeding by Manager Bates of the To-
cal stockyards. There were nearly
1000 animals in the lot. They were
from The Dalles and other stock CEN
ters in northern and eastern Oregon,
and went out by special train under
charge of foreman and two helpers.
Two of the big engines damaged
here in the recent wreck have gone
to Dunsmulr for repairs. They were
able to go under their own steam,
the trip taking thirteen hours. En-
gine 2S47, however, the one which
handled the baseball special, had to
be hauled to the Sacramento shops
in the double portions of locomotive
and tender, together with the two
steel coaches damaged by the col
lision. Cost of repairs owing to this
wreck have been estimated at from
$4,000 to $4,000, but are placed at
$3.50 by the board of inquiry.
