 Returning North, Skookum wa around Dawson for a time, and fin ally moved to Carcross. He was a native of the Tagish Lake district.
 Skookum naturally preferred tC spend the last of his days in his na- tive district, and there settled down at Carcross after all the fuss ano fury of the Klondike rush was over His mining ground was sold to others and he spent much of his last several years prospecting for new placer camps. A great deal of his money went in that way His last stampede vas made last winter to the head ol the Liard, beyond Atlin. He travel ed many weeks through the bitterest weather, reaching 60 or more below zero, with no companions but the dogs which drew his sleigh. Soon after re turning to Carcross he was taken ill, and never recovered. For a time he was at Tenakee Hot Springs, Alaska; then in the government hospital at Whitehorse, and finally back at Car dross. Hiss full name, given him, it IS believed, on suggestion of Bishop Bompas, was James Mason.-Dawson News.

 OPTIONS ON GOLDSTREAM

FAIRBANKS.-W. G. Jack, mining engineer for the Hughes-Timmins Lewis interests in the Tatlanika, an nounced yesterday that he had secur- ed options on most of the claims op Goldstream between No. II and No. "A. The firm that Mr. Jack repre- sents is a dredging concern, and he expects to return next year and pros pect the property. The price at which the options were taken has not yet been made public,- but it is under stood to have been a substantial one.
 The property on which the options were secured lies between II and 2l on Goldstream. The names of the owners of the property were not given, but it is known that R. c. Wood and F. k. Peoples have inter ests in that section. On the majority of the claims very little work has been done. Most of the owners have considered the combined properties as an ideal proposition, and have been waiting for the opportunity to get drcdge men interested.-Ex.

It is estimated that at one time he had close to $100,000 in virgin gold. This he proceeded to spend prodgally, and but for the in- terest taken in his personal welfare by some of his old time white friends he probably would have spent it all almost as quickly as he got it. The late Bishop Bompas and Percy Reid former mining recorder here and al Carcross, took particular interest in the famous old redman, and assisted him in such way as to make the modest remnants of his fortune last him practically until his death.
 Soon after Skookum made his strike on Bonanza he journeyed with his wife and George Carmack to Sc attle, and there they enjoyed the ways of the cheechaco for seyera, months. Skookum had so much wam- pun on the trip he hardly knew how to dispose of it. On one occasion when a Seattle newspaper man weni to the fashionable hotel where Skook um was staying, and called on hin and his wife, the two Yukon redskins were having the time of their live. opening can after can of fancily la

ACTRESS IS ACCUSED
IN PERRYS' DIVORCE
Granddaughter of J. B. A. Hag-
gin Starts Action

The marriage Of Miss Edith Louns-
berry, granddaughter of the late James
Ben Ali Haggin, to Henry Pierrepont
Perry. brother Of Mrs. Pierre Lorillard
Ronslds, jr.. which took place at st.
Thomas's Church in the presence Of
many persons OF social prominence
eleven years ago, is threatened with
dissolution. Mrs. Perry has brought
a suit for divorce in the Supreme
Court, in which she mentioned an un-
identified woman. She asked the court
to give her the custody Of her two
children. Richard Pierrepont, not quite
ten years old, and William Haggin
Perry, six.
Mr.. Perry is a stock broker. He is
also a member OF several clubs, and
was graduated tIom Harvard in 1901.
Served at the Stock Exchange in his
wite's suit, Mr.. Perry made a general
denial. The answer was fled at the
same time as the complaint.
Perhaps the identity of the "uu-
known woman" name1 by Mrs. Perry
will never be made public, as it is
slikely that the action will be heard in
a referees office. 1t is said that she
IS an actress.
Mrs. Perry asserted that her hus-
bands misconduct took place at the
Hotel Wellington, on October 81. This
charge indicated that he was under sur
veillance by agents of his wife.

great sport, by planning routes. Just as

The plans call for the marking OF
