AUTHOR BEACH RETURNS FROM
 ISLAND TRIP
Mountain Leather Ap-
 pears in Two Forms on Lemesurier Island

Rex Beach has returned to Ju- neau after a trip to Lemesuier Is land where he examined outcrop- pings of the mysterious mountain leather discovered by Joe Ibach, prospector. who lives on the Island.
 Mir Beach made the trip from here on the Yakobi, Capt. Tom Smith, and spent some time cruis- ing in nearby waters. He visited Glacier Bay, which area he was instrumental in having opened by Congress, to prospecting.
 The author and mining enthus- fast reports an enjoyable trip ex- cept that it rained so we couldn't see much" He states that the mountain leather, which resembles asbestos, appears in two forms on Lemesieurer Island. It is seen in veins and broken up in shear zones The use to which this mineral can be put has not yet been determined however, MT. Beach believes it may be used for insulating and similar purposes.
 Mountain leather" or mountain cork" is not entirely unknown to government geologists. Other de- posits of it have been found, but in such small quantities that nc great amount of experimentation with the substance has been possi- ble.
 A number of friends of Rez Beach are already interested in this find, and the author hopes to have the deposit mined and uses founo for the mineral.
 MT. Beach will leave Juneau on the Yukon and go from Seattle to Los Angeles. In the latter city he vii collect material for a series of arti. cles, Modern Miracle Men," which is being published in Cosmopoli. tan Magazine.

ALASKA TOURIST SHOWS STE ADY GROWTH.
Passengers to Alaska in
 First Eight Months of This Year, ,O60
2,O0O INCREASE OVER
 l2 MONTHS LAST YEAR
Estimate Figure Will Reach 35,000 by End of Cur
 rent Calendar Year

Ever-growing passenger and tour ist traffic to Alaska is reflected in figures released today by James J. Connors, Collector of Customs.
 Showing in eight months a sharp increase of more than 2,000 over all of last year, the Collectors figures reveal that up to the end of Aug ust 3l,606 passengers had arrived in Alaska from the United States and British Columbia compared with 29,427 during the entire year of 1885 It is estimated, based on comparisons with other years, that September, October, November and December figures will push the to- tai figure for the year up between 4,000 and 5000 with the result that the years report will show passen- ger year in 1886 of between 35,000 and 36,000 persons in Alaska, the slargest in history.
 Tn contrast, departures from AL dchd AtO tAiC OAitCd OtdtCo dllu British Columbia show decline as of the end of August. The eight months ending at that time reveal outgoing passengers numbering 21.- 320 against total departures last year for the 12 months period oi 27,597 It is pointed out by the Collector that the eight months fi- gure does not include September month in which many of the can- nery workels so south, thus the de- parture figures likely will rise dur ing the four months until the first of the year.
 That the growth in passenger traf- fife is constant is reflected in figures over the 1894 calendar In that year passenger traffic to Alaska reached 24,009. Last year it was 29, ,427 and in the first eight months of this year 31,606, or an increase in the eight months period of g. 170 over all of 1885.
