The followinc account of winter
trnvel In the Interior of Alaska plvea
soroe idea of the terrible hardships
met daily by the residents of the
north during the winter season. The
Peward City Gateway says:
Alexander It. Ryan, special deputy
niarhal at Kenai, arrived In Seward
Inst hicht after as difficult a mush as
On Alaska sourdough Is often called
upon to make. He came to bring a
prisoner. Ivan Salava. who is accused
of slaughtering moose for amusement
beyond the limit allowed by the game
law. rhiltp Wilson came along as
guard.
Potli Wilson and Salava partly frozo
feel, hands or face and Wilson's risht
hand is practically helpless. Saliva's
sufferings have been sufficient to make
him wish he had neer seen a moose,
regardless of what the court may do
to him if he should he found, puilty.
The men were eipht days on the
trip of 90 miles. Much of the distance
there is no trail, and when they reach
ed Kenal lake it was not frozen. Con
sequently they were obliged to blaze a
trail mIohs the rocky hillsides which
enclose the mter for It miles. This
Occupied four days, am', the weather
fc-af extremely cold.
"I never would have started on the1
trip if I had known the lake was not
frozen," said Mr. Ryan. "I have beer.
In this country since 1SS$ and It Is a
rare thing for the Jke io ho free of
firm Ice In January. The trip along
the bluffs where we had to make our
trail was as rough a Job of mushins
as I ever did In this country "
From Kenal the party came nearly
straight east until they struck the old
winter trail to Punrlse, of which the
lake, when It is frozen, is the easiest
part. The country Is rough most of
the way. but Alaska musliers are not
looking for asphalt pavements and
they suffered no disagreeable surprist
until they found thev could not trave
on ihe surface of the lake.
Mr. Ryan is a trader at Kenai, and
is also mail carrier to the post office
there from Homer, carrying the mail
from the steamer Bertha. The dis
tance Is 90 miles and usually takes
seven days. He follows the shore lln.
of Cook Inlet and makes his own trail
every trip. There Is little snow but
the country Is rough and rocky.
Jlr. Ryan brought with him a sped
men Alaska product which would
make the average gold mine look like
a common rock quarry If he had more
like It. It Is a black fox skin, for
which an. offer of $300 from the fur
company at Kenai was refused. Two
other black foxes have been caught in
that vicinity this fall. Fur-bearing an
imals are numerous In that region, but
black foxes are as scarce everywhere
as big gold nuggets.

Miss Altheo H. Clmse Will Make Hot
lloiho in Idaho.
Miss Althea H. Chase, one of Amer
ica's prominent young artists who has
been fortunate enough to have had
her pictures exhibited at the Paris
salon, and who has recently come to
Boise to live, was Interviewed yes
terday, says the Boise Statesman.
Miss Chase was found busily en
gaged on an exquisite little piece of
wood carving and stnted that she ex
pected the brass, to begin some work
in that line today. Her versatility In
art was exhibited in the etchings,
charcoal drawings, pencil 'sketches
and oil and water studies about the
studio.
he said that her first work was
done at the Chicago Art Institute
where she received honors, and Inci
dentally mentioned that students find
most difficult to get a thorough
naming m construction and founda
tion in drawing in rails studios, the
masters will not give the time nnd
attention to this preliminary work
which the student should have nnd
that It Is conceded that it Is given
much better In the American art
schools.
One of Miss Chase's first masters
In Paris was the famous and eccentric
.Whistler. On asking Miss Chase
about her admission to hla classes,
she said:
"On reaching Paris, students who
aspired to work with Whistler were
Informed that they must submit their
work to the "Mnwler"' tu the Acade
my Carmen, then there was a week or
10 days of anxiety In' which all kinds
of rumor floated about ns It was
found some would not be admitted
and I was looked upon as an unusual
object when the "Massier" of the
class said he would keep my drawing
from the nude.
"My. first sight of him was a most
agreeable surprise when I found that
he even looked healthy and acted like
a human being. Whistler remarked
once that what he taught was 'neither
a method, a trick, a system nor a
didge.' After that we could not be
so rash as to name It, yet however
indefinite in words his teaching might
be. it was securely tethered to reality
on his palette."

Unhealthy Kidneys impure Blood.
It used to be considered that only
urinary and bladder troubles were to be
iraceu to iuc kiuucj a,
but now modern
science prove that
' nearly all diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
organs.
The kidneys 61ter
and purify the blood
that is their work.
Therefore when vour kidnevs are weak
or out of order, volt can understand how
quicklv your entire body is affected and
how every organ seems to fail to do its
dUlV yon are sick or " feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney remedy, Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon
as your kidneys are well they will help
all the other organs to health. A trial
will convince anyone. .
If yon are sick you can make no mis
take by first doctoring your kidneys.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
kidnev remedy, is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its wonderful cures
of the most distressing cases, ana is soiu
on its merits by all
druggistsin fifty-cent

bottles. You may
have a sample bottle noma of Swrnnp-Eoot
by mail free, also a pamphlet telling you
how to find out if you have kidney or
bladder trouble. Mention this paper
when writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing
hamton, N. Y. Don't make any mistake,
but remember the name, Swamp-Root,

Tide Flats.
fndrr the veil of secrecy with
which its recent tide hind purchases
have been involved, the Union Pacific
yesterday bought another hlock of
land in the south end, acquiring all of
the tide land block No. 395 for a con
sldration of 1305,000, says the" genttle
Ft nr.
The deal follows close on the heels
7,'f the Immense purchase of four
blocks of land east of the present
union depot for $2,750,000 and, so well
informed authorities say, about closes
the present buying by the Harrlman
interests.
flloek 395, the last of the tide land
properties taken over yesterday, ad
joins blocks 393 and 394, which have
already been acquired by the union
Pacific, faces the east waterway and
will, It is claimed, be used for freight
terminals and the center of the rail
road maritime business.
As a result of this sale prices on
allable property In the Immediate
vicinity took a sudden jump of from
$1000 to $2000 per lot.
Several other bis deals are In course
of consideration today, but they are
of such Importance that the people
Interested are as close as the prover
bial clam In divulplng any Informa
tion. Names of principals and prices
nre directly withheld.
The Union Pacific buying In tide
land has come with such dispatch
that those Interested In the realty bus.
Iness lire figuratively on their toes to
catch the first suspicion of further
movement by that corporation.
As the situation Is now In hand the
corporation will construct Its passen
cer depot on the land It purchased
vesterdav adloinlr.g the present union
depot of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific, and the freight
sheds will be located on the holdings
It has acaulred adjoining the east

Lonsfworth's P,rllo a Galloway,
Exhibitors at Denver's livestock
show are nut going to be outdone by
a bunch of foreign royalty and when
Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Longwnrth are
counting their wedding gifts they will
come across 2120 pounds of good
wishes from Colorado, says the Chi
cago Livestock World. The hefty
token will be "Pat Ryan," the hand
some Galloway aristocrat, the pride
of every western stock show for the
past three years.
Pat Is at present the property of
O. W. Lindsay of Red Cloud, Neb.,
and his owner, responding to the ur
gent demand of the committee In
charge of the gift scheme, has decid
ed to part with his noted prize win
ner. George Barnard of Eastonvlllc
Col.. alBO a Galloway exhibitor, Is
the originator of the scheme to send
Miss Alice and her husband-to-be
present which money could not buy
for any other purpose.
"When I go to Washington this
spring I shall see at leant one old
friend," said Mr. Lindsay, "as I have
no doubt that Miss Alice will insist
that 'Pat Ryan' be permitted to graze
upon the White House lawn."
That the department of agriculture
will test the Campbell system of dry
land farming which has proved to be
such a success in Kansas. Nebraska
and the Dakotas, Is shown by the fol
lowing Washington dispatch:
While the department of agriculture
does not deny there Is merit In what
is knovn as the Campbell system of
dry farming, and while It Is willing
that all credit for that comparatively
now system shall go to its Instigator,
there Is a strong belief In the minds of
Irrigation officials of that depart
ment that the system should be care
fully studied bv the government In
order that its limitations as well. is
Its benefits may be laid bare to th3
farmers of the seml-arld regions.
Pills are now pending in congress
authorizing government experiments
under the Campbell system In various
states and under all manner of con
ditions prevailing in the semi-arid
country.
Jt has, tome to the attention of con
gress that some farmers, having only
a general knowledge of the Campbell
system, have undertaken tile Cultiva
tion of crops that can Jiot be grown
except with an abundance of water: tu
other instances farmers have under
taken cultivation In soils not adapted
to dry farming.
In consequence there has been some
loss and there will be more until the
farmers fully realize the limitations
of dry farming and come to know
when and where it can be used. anJ
what crops It will produce under vari
ous climatic and soil conditions.
To that end It Is probable that an
appropriation of $20,000 will be made
In the agricultural appropriation bill
for just this sort of experiments. Such
an ppproprlatlcn would bo expendad
In localities where irrigation Is not
practiced and where it Is not likely
to be undertaken, but where condi
tions are favorable to dry farming.
Once the government ascertains
what crons will grow ty this metho.
and what will not, farmers can safely
undertake farming by this method
The covernment experiments are in
no wuy a reflection on tne promoters
of tha Campbell system, but will aid
them, Inasmuch as they will tend to
reduce the number of failures and be
guide to those who are earnestly
strivln? toget crops with a limited
amount of water.
Once this appropriation Is made. It
Is apt to be continued from year to
year, until the government shall hnve
demonstrated the possibilities of dry
farming all over the west. It is a good
work; It costs but little nnd Its ben
efits will be greatly In excess of the
cost.
