j-iak utrus: we liad a roualj
time corulug In, cm we had cowa, statu
na tieera, uud they don't drive togelh
er si all. I know I walked the dUtaDce
from Uhllkoot to the Yukon three
tltuvaln inaklnn the drive, but wheo
we retotied Dawson I waa 15 pounds
Heavier than I ever was. We slept
outalde, rain or shine, all through the
trip and on the snow when the tber
mometer was 10 bolow r.ero.
Klondike is a great camp, but the
number of paylDg claims are limited
but tboae that do pay are wonderful
You would not believe the amount of
gold they take out. I have seeu
shovels lifted out that contained more
gold than dirt. But there are draw
backs to everything. When we got in
they were charging f 4 a meal. How Is
that for s hungry man with au empty
weasel skin? A good lot of beef was
drove In tbls summer, and noue of it
brought less than $1 per pound, the
bind quarters selling at $1.25 per
pound. Que can drive cattle In with
very little trouble, It you have steers
and a grain of cemmon seme, but the
parties I came in with had little of
either, being bull-beaded Canadians.
People here expect a greater rush
uext summer thau there has ever been,
as this Is a it 1 eat country and full of
mineral. Prospecting has not even
commeuced yet. I only stayed at
Daw.on four days, as I could not get
grub. That is bow a man's standli g
is noted here it is not how much a
man is worth, but how tuurh grub he
has
I saw flour sell for (125 for a 50-
pound a.k. You cau't buy anything
for less than $1 per pouud, and for
baoon and flour you have to give what
ever la at ked for it. Candles sell for
$1 apltoe. How la that for light?
Why Jim Robinson la not in it. If a
man wanted to stay here all winter it
would coat him (2000 to exist.
They crow considerable about their
big game here, that is, Caribou and
Moose, but the biggest game I saw was
at Dawson, when One-Eyed Pete and
the Montana Kid were playlug atud
poker. I saw them bet as high as
(500'Jonaainglecard.
Alter my four days' stay at Dawson,
I started d jwu the river to Circle City,
in company with another man, where
we can live on moderate terms. When
we got 15 miles below Forty Mile we
ran into an ice gorge and swamped
and had to come up the river again as
far as tbls plaoe (Fort Cudahy), and
wait for the Ice to gei aolid in the river
We have been here three weeks and
could have started down a couple of
days ago, but I fell and bruised my
knee and water formed on the kuee
cap, and I am like a rat In a trap for
the time being. I am drawing the
water off with blisters, and have to
stay inside all the time. I am in
hopes of being able to start lu a week.
This was a lively camp one year ago,
but there is only one cabin occupied
hers at present. Tbs bouses here are
all built of legs with moss between
them and poles for a roof, covered with
moss and dirt. It makes a good warm
room, and that is what Is wanted here,
as the thermometer has been flitting
between 10 and 30 degrees below zero
ever since we came. A t this time last
year It was 70 below. We have no
horses here. All the hauling is done
with dote teams, as it costs little to
keep them, and they stand the cold
all right.
Wo are going to have a rough time
going down the river, as the ice is
jammed uncommonly rough, which
makes it hard to travel on.
Anyone thinking of coming in here
with leas than one year's supply of
grub Is a blooming Idiot, and he wan .s
to get used to eating bread cooked by
himself before he starts In, for he has
to do that here, and my experience Is
that It is a bard thing to do while you
are working.
Very truly,
J W Cherry.

Eiuroit Guard: Your letter r eel v.d
and fully noted, and I am sorry tossy
that I cannot give tho assuys of the
liruneau ore as you request, as that is
confidential business and such a re
port would have lo come front soiuo
ono other than mo.
I have never clveti out anv ri-imrl
on the ore, except the iV certificates
turned over to Mcsrs Jennings Bros
A Hruneau. Will snv however, that a
piantlty of the ore Is here on exhibl-
tt hi, and that it Is by fur tho richest
that I have ever Been. It is a line
o,uull'y of tree milling quart, and Mr
liruneau tells mo that be bus several
hundred pounds of specimens like it at

c f ore In tho bin.
I understand that ho has drifted
through rich Irjo milling oro for over
io feet aud loft the mluo (on account
of provisions running short) with tho
race of the tunnel glltteiing with freo
gold.
There are already five claims taken
up on this ledge and some of them
show very rich ore.
I have it from good authority that
severul rich strlckes have beeu made
lu tho Bohemia district withlu tho

the future looks very bright Indeed.
