When the boughs tiave biCJiuo coated niththeroo tJ a thiiknees uf two or three ill' lies, they are huiiij up iu the sun until dry, whon the product is scraped oil aud tit away iu oil for fu ture use. Another food lifli which aboundd in theeo wa'.crd in Kioat numbers and w hich h just comiiik; intj piomineiico as a food lish, is the hnitlmt. The.o lish can be caught in uniiuiited liumbvis in all these inland waieie, wcirihiui; from fifty to four hundred pounds. These fish are caught with the hook nnd packed in ice are shipped to the South ern aud Eastern markets. That this in dustry is becomiuB every ye.ir ol mure importance, is shown by tho increased number of men w ho engage in it from year to yestr. Tho lish are caught in the deep channel. of the inland wators. Four ov live men with a saiall tidhiui; sloop wilt bring in fiom ci;!it to ten tons ol these Ush iu i.s many dajs. When the sloop is loade.l with tiili, they proceed to some nearby glacier and i rocure ice suflkieut to pack their hsh, wheu they are boxed iu ice aud shipped by ttoanier to Seattle where they are sent Uust. The industry, however, which em ploy! the greatest uuiouut of wealth of any iu Alaska is the salmon fisheries. If auy one should be inclined to doubt this statement and to claim for the gold fields the greatest importance, it will only bo uecessary to remind them that Klondike is not iu Al nk.i hut in Uritish territory. Hut if the g dd pr.nluo' ol tho Klondike should bo added to that of Alaska, yet iu my judgment the net profits ol the salmon fisheries would far exceed that of ull (lie gol 1 producod iu the Northwest. There are today, as nearly us I can as certain, about 30 cauneiies employing about 4000 men, mostly natives and Cbiuese. Tho total pack of these cau ueries will reach at least a mill ion cases of flsh of -1 one-pound cans to the c.iBe, Iu addition to the canneries, there are between 1 3 and ?0 tnlteiie, w hich pro duce between 10,000 and 15,000 pounds of salted Huh.

It will be seen by this briel detcrip n of the liiliing industry Alaska, which is not exaggerated or over drawn tliat va-t aincurita of wealth is stored in tlii-t-o wafers.

A ad yet if I should go to capital ists with a proposition to put money In to so ordinary a proposition aa a salmon cannery, to be located on tins coast, where their investment would lie practi cally uuder their personal observation, with an absolute certainty ol a liberal return for tbeir investments, they would flud a thousand objections to such an in vestment. Andyet the day is not for oil when this coast will be dotted with salmon canneries, aud these waters swarm with fishing boats, gathering from natures store houses, fo" ' fish to supply tho world.

There was a great celebration here the other night, says a fig Harbor special to the New Voi k Press. All busiueea was ueglected, and the whole town turned out to welcomo home Leonard J. U. Kuhlwi'iu, chief gunner of Dewey's flag ship, tho Olymyia. Stripped t) the bud', and as begrimed as a stoker, be had lent a hand at the gnus while the tljct described the ovaWin Manila bay that wrote history. At the station there were a band, a preacher and tho whole town. Also i;irls, girls, girls. The chief guuner saw only one a damp eyed little woman siid stepped from the train iuto her arms, lie hadn't any kisses left when it was over, lor he wasn't llobson, aud she was his wile. "llaveu't you forgotten somebody ?" atked his wife, laughingly. Knhlweiu looked arouud anxiously, aud Biw friendly faces. "N-no," he aaid.doubtfully. "Who?" " This," said his wife, pickiug up a sturdy boy, about 3 years old a son of a guuner, if ever there was oue. It was Kuhlweiu'a boy, whom his father bad never seen. The gunner had beeu sent away to the I'acilic a'ooul four years ago, soou after he had married, Tlie youugster howled like an Indian at the hug the bitf, strauge man gave to him. Then tho engiuu looted, the band played, aud the gutiuer and his mate and the boy were escorted to a carriage. The band led uod the town fell iu be hind, and marched through red lire aud Komau caudles aud skyrockets aud speeches and cheers to the home of Mrs. Kuhlwein'a brother, where she had beeu living iu her husbaud'a absence.

Tho chief justice also announced that Tamaseso had been elected rice king. Chief Mataafa was iinpialitied. The consuls of the United States and ireat Britain and the cap tains of the German warship Falke and the British warship I'orpoise met the (ermari consul, who refused to recog nize Malietoa Tan us, and declined to co operate in the disposal of the hamoar.a, who thereupon assembled in large num bers at Mulinu, armed themselves, aud surrounded the municipality. Milietoa Tauus aud Tamasese mustered about 'MM men, well armed, but supplied with drfective ammunition. The British and American consuls endeavored to avert hostilities but tbey were commenced on January 1. Malietoa Tanua'aud Tamas- ese fought bravely, but 000 of their fol lowers were captured.

West, an old settler on the Upper Lwis river, was in the city today and gave the details of the investigation of the newly discovered cave or subterranean cavity under the lava beds on the headwaters of the North Fork of the Lewis river, uear Mount St. Helens. Colonel Wet did not visit the cave himself, but be closely ijueetionod Spencer, the discov erer, aud Davis, New kirk and l'etere, who accompanied Spencer ou his second trip, and says there can be no longer any doubt about the truthfulness ol the report. The mouth of the cave is about 10x20 feet, ami is about 300 feet above the level ol tho Lewis river, eight miles from Mount St. Helen. The entire informa tion iu that vicinity ia a mass ol lava, rolled dowu from thj crater of that once active volcano. The entrance to the cavity declines al an angle of about 43 degrees. Further in the bed of tho cave becomes practical ly level, aud seems lo run about parallel w ith the river. A peculiar leature of the great underground channel is that the walls are very smooth, resembling the surface of a new ly-polished stove. Oc casional prougs of the co iled lava hang from the roof, but generally the roof is smooth and uniform. Some great chambers or rooms were fouud over head, the height of which they could not in all cases determine. The men gave it as their opinion that they followed the cave for at least two miles, wheu they came lo an obstruction caused by a portion of the roof tailing iu, which prevented a further progress. At this point (here was a small opeuing through which passed a decided current of air, indicating that there was an open ing somewhere beyond. The men who toil ol tbis marvelous discovery are men of veracity, ami thoir report is uot doubted iu the community where they live. Superintendent's Report.

A land of -ir;'1 i promise and hope, yet full of hidden dangers. Whether she will find happiness or misery depends largely upon the health and condition of the deli cate, special oigauiam which is the source and centre of her w omanhood. The lives of young women are often wrecked because of a mistaken sense of modesty, which leads them to neglect the earlier symptoms of feminine weakness. These troubles unless corrected, develop into serious chronic difficulties which be come a dragging burden, ruining life's best .opportunities and blighting all possibility of happy wifehood and motherhood. Any woman suffering from these delicate complaints needs the health-giving power of Or Pierce's Kavorite Prescription. It heals and strengthens the womanly organs; tops weakening drains; gives vitality to the nerve-centres, and restores perfect or- fanic soundness and constitutional energy, t is the only medicine devised for this pur pose by a skilled and experienced specialist in diseases of the feminine organism.
