Gerald Griffin, writing from Dawson
City, on the Clondyke, nnder date of
June 26th. says in the Examiner: "I
venture to estimate the season's output
of gold from placers in the immediate
neighborhood of Dawson at five million
dollars. Some here say ten million dol
lars would be a closer estimate, but I
think there is a local tendency to brag.
Dawson has grown like a mushroom
since the news of the richness of the
mines has reached the other diggings.
Nearly four thousand persons are living
here at present, and men are streaming
in as rapidly as possible. We have a
notion in Dawson that by the close of
the autumn there will be ten thousand
inhabitants of the town."
The executive committee in the mat
ter of he firemen's tournament, met
yesterday afternoon and outlined the
work of the different committees. To
day the committee on providing the
finances is out collecting and has, no
doubt, met with liberal responses. The
firemen are determined to make the
tournament a success, a feeling which
all who have a pride in our city will in
dorse, not only in sentiment but with
coin.

homes here.

Wonders of Science.
August C. Kinney, M. D., writing
to the Oregonian, Bays:
But now, the iatter-day science is un
folding many revelations. We know
that the horse and its kind are cleanly
and aB a choice of food as are the cattle.
We have ascertained it to be a fact that
the horse is almost entirely free of that
dread disease, consumption, which is so
very frequently found in cattle. Our
bodies demand a meat food to a certain
extent. Horse meat is wholesome and
generally free of disease. So I think the
time is coming when there will not be so
much prejudice against its use as a food
as at present.
What science has to do with the
startling discovery that "the horse and
its kind are cleanly and choice of its
food," is for the doctor and science to
explain.
