meant heavy going and a rapidly dis
appearing trail-for the planes pos

more of them for the balance of the
journey we were a good deal concern
ed. Hardly an hour after our arrival
yesterday afternoon one of the pilots
landed on Lost Lake with the news
that the blizzard had caught them
and caused a blind landing. in which
one Of the machines was damaged.
1t WIS that blizzard that held us up
in "JohnsOn's camp" log shanty at
the head of an island which forms a
fishing depot in the Summer and this
Winter had formed one of the way
side inns of the Red Lake trail The
wind was shrieking before we reached
it and the surface of the lake was a
binding smother of snow, so one
could only guess at the trail. The
dogs bent their heads down and I
drew in the puckering string of my
parka and Jerked the hood forward.

where a crew of Films and Icelanders
are cutting out tote road. At the
end of the tenth mile hunger, the In.
evitable companion of the trail, had
begun to assert itself. Three miles
further on we were counting the dis
lance by yards, when a strange but
familiar hum startled us.
High overhead were two biplanes
making their first fight to Red Lake,
and we watched them soar in IS min
utes over the distance it had taken us
hours to cover That afternoon
they buzZed once more cheerfully

FRIDAY, however, supremacy was ours

In addition to the many dog teams

Will Surpass Records.
The rush is developing faster than
1 had anticipated Already it sur
passes anything since the days of the
Yukon, and it is going to be the big
gest thing in the history of Canadian
quartz mining. When left Red Lake
last Wednesday. over 700 claims had
already been recorded and there We're
probably another 700 staked and wait
ing for record. Pra ctically 5000 acres
of ground already are marked off in
red squares on the recorders map, but
the Red Lake formation is II unknown

touched and new rushes to two more
remote districts are foreshadowed as
soon as the water opens.
I am nursing a frost bitten nose
and chin and a pair of feet that are
blistered like hot tar roof, but just
the same I'm willing to say that this
English River territory is great
health country--and besides there's
the gold.
The most interesting incident Of
our hike out from Red Lake concerns
the Mouse, swing-dog of our second
team. The Mouse will go down
in Red Lake mining history as the
most inconsistent. cussedest dog in
the gold country. Not only did she
choose the most difficult part of the
trail but also the midst of one of the

All that night the tempest sang it's

the dogs frantic with excitement.
Down on the wind came the thin
mournful wall of wolves. as cheerless
as the night itself. We never saw

there were, but their howl was un-

were finished and we muffied ourselves
in eiderdowns and blankets and
watched the flames blinking at the
peeled log walls until the warmth of
our coverings brought sleep. Next
morning the trail was gone buried
deep under the nights fall of snow,
but the wind was at work repairing
the havoc it had helped in. Toward
noon it had secured off parts of the
toboggan track so that its general
course was visable. and we rolled our
bedding and got under way.

Refused to Leave Nook.
The Mouse had found herself a shell
tered nook and was curled up there
with her furry tail acting as a res
pirator. When Hyde approached
her, harness in hand, she stubbornly
refused to bulge and her conduct
puzzled him till he caught the sof.
mumur of complaint at her flank
that gave the secret away. Com
plerely hidden by her fluffy coat
were five squirming youngsters not
unlike young field mice in facial eX-
preston and sdueaking plaintively.
One of them had been chilled and he
did not survive. but the other pre-
scented a very live and actual prob
lem.
What did we do? What could we
do?
The only alternative to abandon
ment was to load mother and babies
on one of the toboggans and make
passengers of the whole family. We
made the experiment and it worked.
Bound inside the tarpaulin that COW
cred the toboggan load, the Mouse
rode in state tor the next two days
with her family tucked safely in
side her flank and Browns rabbit
skin sleeping robe to keep all OF
them warm.
Once or twice it was necessary to
turn the toboggan fiat on its side and
scrape the bottom free of ice, but even
that operation did not disturb the
little dog on the first free ride she
had ever enjoyed.
We landed her safely at Hudson. and
today she will go by train to Allan
Water. there to enjoy the rest and
s2clusion necessary for the nurturing
of one more dog team for next Win
ter's trail.
HusI&ies Show Speed.
Winter travel in the north is meas

found our share of them. Yet, when
at Lac Seul Factory we discarded one
toboggan, loaded all our traps on the
other and hitched a fivedog team to

than before. Huskies know when they
are approaching the end of the trip.
and these fellows wound up with a
burst of speed. The trail, which had
oned under heavy nights frost and
good footing enabled us to keep up
with the eager dogs.

Quota, However.

While enrolment for the citizens

has not made the rapid strides it
did last year. Lieut.. Col. Francis w.
Glover, FIT Hayes, Fifth Corps Area
c. NJ. T. C. officer, expressed conf
dence today that Indiana will reach
it's quota of 1896 applications before
June l.
Statistics show Indiana. April 3,
had obtained a total OF 364 applica-
tons, or over 26 per cent of it's
quota. At the same time last year
Indiana was credited with a total
of SIT applications. or more than
AZ per cent of its quota.
Colonel Gloxer points out, how
ever. that these figures need cause
no alarm because of the fact that
the other three States Of the corps
area, Ohio. Kentucky and West Nir-
ginia, as well as the other eight
corps areas of the country, are be
hind in the number of applications
received.
No particular reason for the slow
ness of applications this year is
given by the colonel except the lin

The late Samuel Gompers. presi-

of the prohibition question in con-
ventions because he was afraid of
