 Duncan says there are three tents on the trail. One is about 16 miles from town, the next about 25 miles out and the third close to the roadhouse. The trail, although new, is in pretty good condition for travel, and will become better as the travel over it increases. And the grade is such that a team can go right along with a load.
 , Nels Stol came along with Dun- can, with another team, and several Natives. with teams, passed over the trail at about the same time bu: headed in the opposite direction Duncan expects to return to the Kantishna within a few days.

THE MINSTREL BOYS

A man must serve his time at every trade, except rhymsters-they re already made. And any dub that's got half wit and an hour of time, may unwind upon the town a reel or two of rhyme; not the high brow stuff like that of Homer and Horace, or the pensive lays of Pete Dolan and Dick Morris; just com mon rant, rough and ready made easy put together. They're tricks in every trade. Awake, my St. John!" the poet Pope began, when he put the words of wisdom in his Essay on Man.. Awake, Nenana! We're in the movie rut, and slow, when Fairbanks has to show us how to stage a minstrel show; a show up-to- date, natty. nice and clean, the best Nenana's ever seen. Doctor Suther- land could slit you up and bind you with a clamp, was a regular peach, and something of a vamp. And Jack O'Gara, who the glasses at Casey's bar did twirl, was a nifty piece of muslin, and a regular dance hall girl. Hal, with the funny name-I couldn't sound it with a gong showed lots of style and class in his good old harem song. The acting of Ed. Herring was up to every wish, which plainly goes to show that Herring is no fish. Rody Davis long ago for Major Morrow sang, has grown from pinafores to a regular minstrel man. Each and every one was good and showed a lively pace. along with Bobby Sheldon and his Charlie Chaplin" face. The humor was all good-yet, pon my honor, I think they went little strong on Mayor Joe O'Connor. They hit the nail right on the head, still, to me it seems, they wronged the soulful thoughts of Romeo Barrett" Flames
 When it comes to doing things in style-take from me the hunch- it's hard to go one better than that lively Fairbanks bunch. We're in oinnocuous desuetude', which is an awful state. so we'll put the matter in the hands of Fred "Belasco'
