SERVICE
 STARTS THURS.

With the departure of the steam CT Casca from Whitehorse the Bea- son of river navigation Ncrthbound is closed for the year 1917. The B. Y, N. Co. held the Casca at White horse for day or two in order to make a cleanup of the big mails that arrived In Skagway on the Princess Sophia, the Jefferson and the City of Seattle, and for some i'm" Uortant machinery destined for Daw- son.
 This week the wheeled thoro- braces will be back at work on the overland trail, which is all practically organized and in readi- ness for the coming winters work. The feed for the horses has been distributed, 'roadhouse and stables put in order and relays of horses put at the various posts as in us ual It Is not thought that oyer land travel via stage will be at all heavy this Fall but ample accommo- dations have been arranged at all Of the roadhouses and the stage line itself will be in position to handle whatever business offers. The work of trimming up, shoeIng and clip ping the horses has been going on for the past two weeks, and il was noticed from the number or teams exercising that the majority of the stock is in Al condition.
 It has not yet been definitely settled. but it is thought now thai the first overland mail northbound will leave Whitehorse on Thurs day, October 18th, and every Thurs day thereafter until good sleighing arrives and the river crossings are frozen over and safe for crossing, when practically the same service will be installed as last year, i. g. twice 8 week regularly, and three times a week if sufficient business offers to run 9 tri-weekly service.
