beautiful valley on earth than that of
the Klondike. 1t was bordered by
grass-covered hills that rolled over one
another. rising here and there to far
above the height of the Blue Ridge.
Both hills and valleys were covered
with woods. In the open spaces the
grass reached to your knees or your
waist. and there were wild flowers
everywhere. AS soon as gold was dis
covered men began to chop down the
trees Lumber was worth 500 and up
ward thousand, and little pine logs
brought SO each. The miners thawed
their way down into the gravel. and
defaced the landscape with piles of
half-froZen muck. A little later the
dredgers came in. and turned the land
upside down. They stripped off the sur
face of grass and stumps. and plowed
the beds of the creeks in great fur
rows thirty feet deep. until they are
now as bare and as dreary as any part
of the Sahara. The two corporations
which have done most of this work are
the Yukon Gold Company. commonly
known as the Guggenheim. and
Joseph w. Boyle, Ltd. or the Mining
Company of the Canadian Klondike.
Each of these is a great gold manu-
featuring proposition, which liz differ
ent from any other in the mining
camps of the world. In this letter l
shall treat of the Yukon Gold only.
But let me give you some pictures Of

last eight years more than forty mil
lion cubic yards of earth and rock had
been washed by the dredges and the
hydraulic giants, the output being
about five million cubic yards for each
year. l then took my paper and fs-
ured. A cubic yard of this rock weighs
about a ton and half. Itwould be

pose it could be put upon wagons and
each team with its wagon take thirty
feet space on the roadway. The teams
required to haul the whole mass would
be 1.20O, 100000 feet long or, for easy
hguring, at 5000 feet to the mile it
would reach from here for distance of
100000 miles. It would be long enough
TO go ten times around the world at the
equator, and if il could be started
through space on a roadway of moon
beams it would extend all the way TO
that luminous body that makes our
nights glorious and still leave 10000
miles of wagons to follow
Up to the present time more than
s1S5.000,000 worth of gold has been
taken out of the Klondike. and of that
vast sum more than two-fifths has
come from mining the wgrade earth
with modern machinery. Mr.. Thomas
look into the country as a low grade
proposition for the Guggenheim syndi-
cate the crowd of fortune hunters had
left and the few still at work were
barely making day wages. They were
scattered up and down the valley, and
the Yukon Gold Company could have
then bought the right TO the whole of
the klondike for very small sum. 1t
confined its purchases only to the rich
est of the gold bearing creeks. 1t was

handle the heavy quartz powders found
among the gravel, and, at first, sta
tionary machines, consisting of ladders
with endless buckets, were employed to
dig up the earth ard get out the gold.
Later the dredges were found to work
well. and after time was evolved the
strong dredge-type that is now used
here TODAY
The old miners threw away the val
ues that are now being saved Their
way of testing the gold in a pan was
by guess, and that after the earth had
been washed off. One day Mr.. Thomas
showed an old miner pan which he
had just finished washing. and asked
him what he thought it would run. The
pan contained a few grains of gold
dust and quite little -four gold. The
miner tilted the pan that the grains
ran to one side, and then took his
thumb and scraped out the flour and
threw it away. The stuff he threw out
was just what Mr. Thomas was trying
TO- save, and upon which all his oaicu-
lations were based. Still the miner
thought it worth nothing
1t has been in such nothings that the
Yukon Gold Company has invested cam
ital to the amount of seventeen million
dollars. 1t has dredging operations in
Alaska and in other parts of the world.
Right here in the Klondike up to two
years ago it had taken out millions and
paid to Its stockholders six or seven
million dollars in dividends The profits
of the plant here last year were more

are more healthy than city babies
comes Indiana with the lowest rate of
mortality of any individual state con-
sidered. Indiana, with 2,7o4,767 popu-
lation has but Soo.S95 people in her
cities. Also, in the matter OF square
miles Indiana is over four times the
size of Massachusetts and three-fourths
as large as New York state. The rate
of mortality during the first year in
Indiana is, males less than 90, females
over so.
New Jersey more nearly than any
other individual state hits the average
of the entire area for the rate of NOR
tality under one year of age Her
death rate per thousand for males I'M
der one year is over l24-@the rate being
less than 125 for the whole area-and
for females over 102-the whole having
rate of less than 104.
When Prof. Glover called attention
to the striking and significant differ
erences" in some of the infant mortal
ity tables, he was speaking first of the
negro tables. Whereas but l2s native
born white males die per thousand dur
ing their first year, the rate for negroes
is 2l9. And while but 104 females
among the same white classification
die during the first year. the negro rate
is 1S5.
Figures dealing with foreign born
whites were found to be unreliable be-
low the age of five years Between the
age of five and six the mortality rate
for males is nearly per Thousand: fe-
males about s. Mortality rates for the
same age interval for both native born
white males and females are over per
thousand. For the entire death regis
tration area as a whole, for the same
quarters for males, four and half for
females.
In rural communities boys between
five and six years show a mortality
rate of three and a half per thousand,

val in the cities is males five and a half,
females five and a quarter.

shows the rate of mortality and other
derived values by age intervals of one
month. An examination of the infant
mortality tables reveals striking and
significant differences in mortality con-
ditions in different classes of the gem
eral population
All mortality results are based upon
the reported deaths of three years,
Because the deaths for one year might
be greater or less than another, this
course was found advisable. The
tables deal with the death registration
states first as whole. without regard
to sex. color or locality. Separate tables
then follow for each sex, then for
whites and negroes.
Other classifications include native
born whites. fore!gn-born whites.
whites in cities and whites in rural
separate results are shown for males
and females. New York. New Jersey,
Massachusetts. Michigan and Indiana
are treated individually. although no
distinction is made as to color or To-
cality. sex only being considered.
The tables are arranged according to
age intervals" which start at birth
and for the first year proceed by
months, and from then to the end of
life by yearly periods. BY "age inter-
val' is meant the period of life be-
tween two exact ages and includes all
fractional ages between the two. Re-
suits are figured upon the basis of
100000 living births.
This number is hypothetical and as
sumed merely for convenience 1t is
not intended to convey the impression
that the entire 100000 persons were
born at the same instance, but merely
that each of that number was kept
under observation from the time of
birth until death. BY noting the num-
Der of persons alive at the age of one
month, and so on through all the age
intervals. the derived values were made
possible.
According to the census of 1910, the
estimated population of the ten
original death registration states and
the District of Columbia was 24.131.75s.
Reported deaths were: 1909, 35357s;
1910. 377,015: 1911. 3es.0s7.
Ordinarily the term infant is meant
to include the first two years of life,
but statistics being available for but
the first year by months or quarters
only the first twelve months are shown
separately.
1t is proved conclusively that the
crucial period in baby's life is the
first month. Tables dealing with
native-born whites show that out of
100000 males born alive 1875, or prac-
t1cally per cent, die within the first
month of life, while the rate for fe-
male infants during the same interval
Is under per cent. The rate of NOR
tality for the entire first years for
born white males is over 10
per cent, under II for females. This
shows that of all deaths occurring in
this classification in the first year.
