become great fan 100 miles wiee. tic various streams forming the ribs. In flood time the whole country is under water Islands grow up in a night and new sand bars are to be seen at every voyage. In places the stream is so wide that you can see little else but a vast expanse of vel low water trimmed by the sapphire sky. When you get close to the shore you look over grass as green and smooth as that of Holland, and seem to be riGing by one mighty pasture
 The government has done little 10 protect the navigation of the Yukon. The only lights on this mighty stream, with it's winding course, its scores of tributaries and it's thousands of shift ing sand bars and islands, are where the river flows into the ocean. The system all told has 4o0o miles or more of navigable and navigated wa tcrs, and there is not a lighthouse buoy, nor a mark of any kind to aid the shipping. There are only a few buoys and light at the Apoon mouth of the river; and the light is only an eight-day lantern hung on a pole. Some of the captains are ac- customed to put up their own marks to aid them in subsequent voyages. As we passed through the delta the cap tain of our steamer showed me bar rel lying in the middle of sand bar The sand bar was under water during the last trip, and the captain had anchored the barrel there to locate 1t. Since then the bar has risen above the water and become large island with tho barrel in it's middle. The captains all keep records of each trip noting the changes and handing their sketches over to the captains following them up or down the stream.
 The Yukon river is navigated from the 10th of June until the 18th of Octo- Fer every year. It is the highway to the interior of Alaska, and the river should be thoroughly plated and marked. There should be a govern ment lighthouse boat moving up and down it and the marks and lights should be changed with the course of the river, just as Is done on the Mis- s:ssippi.
 The traffic of the Yukon will in crease with the completion of the rail Toad and the growth of Alaska Today there are boats leaving every three or four days on the upper part of the river and boats sail regularly every i've days from Dawson to Fairbanks and from Fairbanks to Dawson. There are boats about once a week from the island of St. Michael in Boring sea up the Yukon to Panama, and from Fort Gihbon down to the sea
 The steamers now going out of St. Michael are the Alice, the Sarah. the Eouise. the Susie, the Hannah and the Julia B. The first five of these be. long to the White Pass and Yukon company. The Julia B is owned by a rival organization. known as the American Yukon Navigation company. of the boats the largest are the Susie.

 The work on this hotel will be completed in January of next year, and it will be open for guests about February l. 1917.
 Before closing his little interview with me, MT. Tolson asked that a message be delivered to this effect: Beware, all solicits you to go to any certain hotel"
 It seems that public porters" have been doing this at a great profit to them selves for long time, and the situation is such that the hotel men themselves have no defense. For instance, if you want to stop at the Knckerbocker, and the Knickerbocker does not give the pub lie porter as much as the Marie An toinette. you will be told that the Kniclz- erbocker is full up; or you may even be told in confidence that an epidemic has been discovered at the Knickerbocler, and that you will take your life in your hands if you stop there
 Some of the hotels, it Is claimed, give the public porter as much as two-thrds of the first days bill of each guest whom they tout" there. The practice is generally recognized among hotel men, but the majority of them feel forced 10 get in with the public porters and pay them fancy prices to keep them from telling all visitors that their hotels are unfit in some way.
 MT. Tolson declares that no greater kindness could be shown to the hotel men of Gotham. and for that matter, to the visitors themselves, than to give them this message: Beware of the hotel solicitor-that is, the fellows, often negroes, who meet the trains with pub lie porter's badge on them. If the nui- sance can thus be abated prices will be lower at hotels, for the hotel must de- mand enough money from the guest to cover expenses and the porters demands.
 The season of grand opera is about in full swing. The Metropolitan opera house opened this week, Les Pecheurs des Perles" being the first offering. And I have heard the great Caruso! Oh, carssimo, fortssimo, but he is the clever caroler.

aid bandages, or something. while his wonderful voice rose and scared, trem- bled, thrilled and throbbed, climbed to almost undiscovered tenor heights above the staff and-oh, earissmo, Italiano, paghettio,-broke!
 You do not believe me- No. Nor can l blame you. Nevertheless. I speak the truth. I heard Caruso's marvellous voice break, and that, too, right in the middle of an altitude record note, It broke and trailed off into an unseemly screech. Can you imagine the nsations of so devout q worshiper of grand opera a la Caruse, as I have ever been? You cannot-I did not expect you to.
 Instead of putting an immediate end to the agony, however the tenor kept on with that horrible, screechy sound till I could stand it no longer. I arose from my seat, walked straight to that once wonderful voice, and, with a quick mo- tion, silenced 1t! For moment only the whole world seemed to stand still. Then l understood; some darn mutt had scratched it. And it was one of the most expensive Victrola records had!
 Madison Square Garden is soon to be sold at auction unless the hotel men of Manhattan can prevent 1t. This famous old place has been the scene of many affairs which have helped to fill the hotels of New York city, and the hotel pro- prietors hate to see it go.

About some of the houses are gardens, and there are two hothouses that are noted for raising fine the banks the proprietor of one of these hothouses came aboard and took passage for Nome. He had a sample of his vegetables with him. It was a cucumber "a little one, he said, for he could not get the big ones inside his bag. meas u1ed it. It was just IS inches long, or about three-fourths the length of the col umn of the ordinary newspaper
 A little below Ruby we passed the mouth of the Koyukuk river, a stream which is navigable for more than 800 miles north of where it flows into the Yukon. It has rich mining camps which are reached by small steamers. Gold was found along the creeks leading into 1t IA or 15 years ago, and 10 years ago s3oO,- 900 worth of nuggets were taken from one small patch on Nolan creek. The end of steamship navigation on the Koyukuk is Bettles, which is more than 400 or 5vO miles from it's mouth. Beyond that sup plies are carried in small boats to the mines.
 A few miles below the mouth of the Koyukuk we stopped at Nulato. This is an Indian village, noted as being one of the oldest trading posts on the Yukon It was established by the Russians when yya the time that Tyler entered the White House it became a post of the Russian American company, and the chief market for the furs of this part of Alaska. About 10 years later an English ship came up the Yukon to search for Sir John Franklin. It stopped at Nulato and the commander said something that angered the Indians. They killed him and he was buried somewhere nearby. His grave is unmarked.
 There are two stores at Nulato, and also a wireless telegraph station whose tall mast can be seen rising high above the Indian cabins that line the shores. The town is mostly made up of Indians. Ie has a government hospital and gov ernment school. It has also a mission station and an Indian cemetery.
 The steamboat Sarah tied up at the bank right under the cemetery and We could see the Indian monuments on the hill just above us. They were made of wood and painted in the brightest of colors. Scores of little yellow, blue, red, green and white kennel-hke houses were scattered along the top of the hill. They seemed like doll houses. They are the homes of the ghosts of the departed, into which the Indians now and then put food for the spirits Above each house Is cross, showing how Christianity Is combined with the superstitions of the past The Indians of Nulato are dirty and the houses are not as well kept as

UP AND DOWN BRQ0ADWAY=-By Allen Griffin Johnson

T am sorry, MT. Goddard" was her answer but I have already sold the story to the World"
 And the next morning the World car ried the story.
 Later. Mrs. Clarke was asked by MT. Goddard in person if she would act as the general southern correspondent for him, and if she would also submit any, thing she might write to him. She &C., cepted the latter part of the proposi- ton only, and afterward the American carried not a little of her clever out put.
 And if you think little thing like that Is easy to put over' here-try it. The vast majority who do try something like it never get any further than the office boy It is easy enough to walk into the office of the average southern newspa- per and shoot the editor. but in Manhat- tan you probably couldn't get within long range of him.
 There are two distinct classes of ho- tels in New York city. One is the caba- ret sort, the other is the home sort where dancing and musical entertainment are taboo during meals. Take your choice.
 Before you make that choice, however let me tell you a few facts I learned from one of the biggest home hotel' men in New York city. He is T. E. Tol- son, who is interested in a whole string of Manhattan hostelres. among which are the Bristol, in West Forty-ninth street; the Berkeley, Ninth street and Fifth avenue; the Van Renselaer, Elev- enth street and Fifth avenue; the Airing ton, Twenty-fifth street and Broadway; the De Marquis, Thirty-frst street and Fifth avenue; the Rutledge, a hotel for women only. Thirteth street and Lexing- ton avenue; the Holly, the Earl and the Judson
 In each of these hotels are "perma- nents" who have lived in them for many years and particularly is this true of the hostelries in the Washington Square sec tion The uptown hotels handle a greater number of transients, though they, too have their permanent dwellers.
 When I asked Mr. Toson about the cabaret and dance features he smiled as he replied: T have steadily refused to permit my guests to eat food sprinkled
