THE JOURNEY With your outfit, sled, etc., aboard the steamer .-t Seattle, bound for Dyea or Skagnay, the run to the.se points is ,S,S.( miles and is made in four ;er heretofore asso- ciated with it is concei'dcd to have been imanined, .\ staunch boat, a level head and some knowledge of navigating rajiiil water are the prin- cipal requifites of a safe passage. The same may be sriid of While Horse rapids, two miles below the canyon. Hefore reaching ilierrti'ids a sign will be obst-rveil on the .eft bank. At this point, if desired, a landing can be made and the con- tents of the boats portaged over, a distance <■; about one mile, and the boat lined down from the bank by ropes; or, if after examination, it has been decided to run the rapids, ex- ercise care as yon did in the canyon and yo\i will go through all right. The river below the White Horse has a current of nearly eight miles ;ni hour, which gradually decreases until I,ake I.e liarge is entered. This lake is about thirty -one miles long, with an average width of five miles. Violent storms are of frequent occur- rence here, and much cue should be exercised in navigating, a sharp lookout being kept for squalls. The best course is to follow the left hand bank and pass between it and an island which will be found about half way down the lai;e. Nearly two hundred and twenty miles below the White Horse are the I'Mve Fingers rapids. These aie not at all formid- able, and by following the passage to the extreme right no trouble need be feared. Five miles further down the river you will pass the Rink rapids, but the obstruction only covers the left half of the river and by keeping close to the right bank as you go you experience snjooth water. The river from this point to the month, almost 2(xx) miles, is open and free from obstructions of any kind other than islands. Near Fort Selkirk, just lelow the month of the Pelly river and fifiy-tive miles from the I'ive Fingers is a group of island.-, upon which grows some very good timber. It you are bound for Dawson City, and have a little time to S])are you can make several hundred dollars by stojjping a week or two and jiutting in the time cut- ling dfiwn the merchantable trees. At the di;:gings there is gold for e ;ery one, and if you have good health, plenty of pluck and endur- ance, and are mil afr;iid of rough work and many hardshijis, you should be able to make a comfortable stake in a few years. The jiriucipal thing is to make the right start. A VALUAELE IDEA Mark to Identify It is a good idea to mark your su])- plics with some conspicuous nuirk — with some glaring color. F'or instance, a red stripe around the middle of each package, or a large bright colored spot, circle, square or cross, etc. The immense amount of freight and supplies landed at Dyea and Skaguay necessitates some plain identifying mark, easier than the or- dinary name and address.

Schwatka says they sting the hears so as to drive them crazy When the poor animals are driven by hunger down to the river in mosquito time they are .so bitten about the eyes as to become blinded, when they die of starvation. The late K. J. Glave wrote of the pests: "A liberal daubing of bacon fat and pitch around the eyes and ears of our animals kept those sensi- tive parts free from the pests, and when- my own head grew so bumpy r could not get my hat on I applied the remedy to my own anatomy with a good deal of success When not feeding, our horses would leave the sheltered places and seek the open stone to avail themselves of what- ■I Vor Ni.;i,;r) SLEEPING BAGS FURS, Etc.

There are regions where rich finds have been made, which are not yet fully located by claim- ants. Dividing the Yuhon watershed into upper, lower and middle por- tions, it may be said in brief that the first finds were tuade in the up- jier section, the next in the midtlle section, while the lower portion has not been so much as explored. Refore ex])'.oiling the Klondyke the richest recent strikes were on Forty-Mile, Sixty-Mile, Miller, Gla- cier and r.irch creeks, Koyakiik river and their "nranches. Miller creek is the richest tributary of Sixty-Mile creek. It had been pro-peeled more or le.ss, off and on, before 1801'. In that year $li7,M)() w; cleaned up on one claim. At on.- lime 12') mines ■were on the creek. (Uacier creek is parallel with Sixty-Mile creek only three miles away. The dirt runs from a few cents to $i a pan. The climate befits the name. iNIiu- ing Recorder Paddjck made a trip of sixty-five miles to Jililler creek in winter with the thermometer rang- ing from 44 to 77 degrees on the wrong side of zero. There are nu- merous other small creeks iu this range not yet fully developed. In- dian creek has been prospected for 1(10 miles and has furnished some paying claims. The Yukon is formed by the junction of Lewis river, the western, and Pelly river, the eastern branches, at I'ort Selkirk. It was discovered by a Hudson Hay company scout named Robert Campbell, who built Fort Selkirk iu 1848. It was plund- ereil and destroyed by the Indians in 18.32.

'J 'o suc- ceed, we should be able to give vou some reasons why you should delay buying until vou reach Seattle, the port ot dei^arture for Alaska. Seattle's facilities for handliiiii (he Alaska trade are the most advantageous. 'J'his trade is not new to her. AUhougli the trade was once ciitirelv controlled by San Francisco, it has been captured by 'Seattle. It amounts to an enormous sum annually, and is evidei;ce of the push and ability to handle this trade— ])eciiliarly a specialty— and places Seattle in a unique position, to sup].*lv the trade as 110 other city can. Tlie re(|uireiuents of an Alaska miner are very diflen-nt to those of other sections and only experienced caterers to that trade know what is needed. You niav pav dearlv for ex- periences that can be avoided, if you will be advLsed'hy those in a j)osilion to give a Food Supplies 111 the city, and employ u large stall' cai)able of sup- plying an army of ])rospectors.

In winter the journey is made with sledges, drawn partly by the miner, partly by dogs, if lie is tak- ing in a full outfit of provisions. Sometimes, with a south wind lilow- ing, the tr.iveller rigs a jury mast on his sled ami hoists an extemporized sail, and goes ice-boating away towards the Arctic circle at a great rato over the frozen lakes and rivers. There isn't much easy going of this sort, however, and the winter jour- ney is by no means to be recom- mended. Going in in the spring is different. The best time is early, before the snow r.ielts, as supjilies can then be sledded over the pass, and there is still ice left in the lakes to drag or sail the sleds on. The sled should be about seven and a half feet long, seven inches high and sixteen inches wide, llrass runners are jireferable to steel, and the frame will be much more elastic and durable if lashed to- gether after the native fashion tluui if fastened with nails and bolts, which weaken the wood and give no •'play." March lo is early enough to start from Seattle for ii spring trip. After the ice has melted, canoes are used for six miles after leaving Ty-a. Then the packs are taken up through the canyon to Sheep camp. The next six miles up to the sum- mit of the pass are the worst of the trip. The height is ;J,;J7.S feet. It is eight miles and a half from the summit down to Lake I.inderman, an easy stage with snow on the ground, but rough and difficult in summer. You must be Supplied u^ith (Dedicines But we hope you will not need it. Must be uon-freezable, and specially prepared for the Arctic climate.

As soon as the mines are found means of transporting the machin- ery will be provided and the mines will bt started. Mines in rock, of course, will not be delayed by the weather conditions which I'nake placer mining so diflicult in that country.

FOR «OLD HUNTERS Oen. W. W. Duffidd, superintend- ent of the coast and geodetic survey '■) discussing the gold .liscoveries iu Alaska, gives this advice to younjr men; '^ "If I were a young man," he said, • I should get a 7o.ton schooner at Seattle, take, •,.;pplies and engage the services of a first-class prospector. I Should cruise along the southeast- ern part of .Maska. in what is called the Alexander archipelago. There are a number of islands there, and more gold lodes than at any plpce with which I am acquainted. The mining would not be 'placers,' but the ore can be gotten out verv cheap- ly, and being directly on the sea the transportation amounts to almost nothing, except the time .spent o.j the trip." NEW ROUTES A new route is to be established to the Klondyke. The journey will be made from Seattle to Wran-el where a steamer will run up the Stickeen river a distance of 70 miles From this point to Lake Teslin the trip will be made by stage. Lake Teshn is at the head of the Hoota- Iinqua river,and from there a steamer will ply on the J.ewis and Yukon rivers to Dawson City, a distance of 4.30 miles. The stage line will be owned uud managed by John MU man, the well-known stage proprie- tor. He will place ten coaches and 100 horses on the road. The fare is to be for the staging ^I a mile for passengers. A small detachment of mounted police will procee.l from lidmonton Alberta, ami endeavor to reach the Klondyke from the eastern slope of the Rocky mountains. Edmonton IS the most northerly railroad point 111 the Canadian Northwest territorv heing 1!)() miles north of Calgary' The route to be followed is by the way of Nelson and Laird rivers to the Deafe. and up this river to the Pelly. They will follow the Pellv river to its junction with the Lees and the Lees to the Klondyks, a to- tal of 1370 miles. This is not the Mackenzie river route. As the police are to take horses with them it is ob- vious that authorities consider this route practicable, or at any rate is worth examining. ts to almost iiiie spent o.j ES e established journey will to Wrangel, run up the e of 70 miles, c Teslin the 'tage.

He has had a world of experience in the nlinin.^r districts of the North- west Territory and Alaska, an.l as he has profiled by his expeiience, and has money to show, his words have considerate weight. He says: 'I would advise any one who is goi'ig to the mines to go in with plenty of provisions There is j^old all over I'll'; it cannot he eaten, an.l money or its equivalent cannot ahv.-iys buy food. r.,ast year there was almost a famine up the river, and in the camps around Dawson City men were living on beans and dour.

Put it away and it will come handy when vou will like it. „ .• , . ' K it is ever necessary to cache a load of provisions, put all articles next to the ground which will he most affected by heat, providing at the same time that dampness will not affect their food properties to any great extent. After piling vour stuff, load it over carefully with heavy rocks. Take your compass bearings, and also note in your pocket some landmarks near by. and also the direction in which they lie from your cache-i e., make your cache if possible, come exactly north and south of two given prominent marks. In this way, even though covered by snow, you can locate your "existence." Don't forget that it is so. Shoot a dog, if vou have to, behind the base of the skull, a horse be- tween the ears, ranging dowrward. Press ihc trigger of your rifle; don't pull it Don't catch hold of tlie barrel when 30 .legrees below zero is regis- tered. Watch out for getting snow in your iJarnl. If you do, don't shoot it out. . t 1 \ little dry grass or hay in the inside of your niitls, next your hands, x^ill promote great heat, especially when it gets damp from the moisture of your hands. After the mitts are removed from the hands, remove the hay fro>M the mitts and drv it. Failing that, throw it away. If by anv chance vou arc travelling across a ph.in (no trail) and a fog comes up, or'a blinding snowstorm, either of which will prevent you taking your bearings, camp, and don't move for anyone until all is clearagain.
