A Trip to Cook's Inlet. ! h.st Thursday, a Cathlamet Gu zelte representative had the pleasuro of run usu across Wm. Arnold of Hurces' can nery, who gave us a verj' interesting account of what Le saw, heard and did, , on his trip to Alaska, from which he has just ictnrnrd. Mr. Arnold said: ; "We left San Francisco, March 2.", said , after an uneventful voyage, we arriwd ! in Cook's Inlet, about a month later. i Onr cannery, belonging to the Cutting j Packing Co., was the only one in the Inl.rl and packed 33,000 cases of salmon. ueniiira stalling .VJiuu vi uiuicm ui bellies. We had a splendid run of fish, and could have put up many more cases, had not the vessel that, was bringing us onr tin got disabled, which compelled us to c'..-e down after running Just two months and a hulf. The Alaskan salmon will average larger than these of the Columbia river, but are not as fatai.d will not weigh as much. We had a crew of 107 Chinamen in the cannerv. We left Cook's Inlet Augns't ilth, on our rt turn journey home. 'I he rchconer that we were in got disabled soon after leaving Kodiak, and in order to git at the leak, (!20 cases of salmon and 200 .sacks of coal, that was being taken to San Francisco for analysis, were thrown overboard to the fishes. After an im mense deal of labor the leak was par tially stopped, and by keeping the pumps constantly going we were able to keep her afloat. After a verj' exciting experience of 3) days, we arrived safely in San Francisco. At one time wo thought we must surely go down, with tho waves breaking over us even' minute and the water gaining in ihe hold, inch by inch. After getting the leak partially stopped tho captain called the passengers together and asked whether he should make for Port Town-Sc-nd, or keep on their course. The latter motion prevailed as before shown. On tho passage down, six Chinamen died from the effects of opium. As one after the other died, they were placed in a largo box made of heavy tin and her metically sealed up, like so many salmon in a case. Tho company would havo for feited a 1,000 ahead, if they had thrown them overboard. As tho company un dertook to bring them back, dead or alive. There is a large deposit of anthracite coalnear tho cannery, which is pro nounced by experts to be equal to any in theworld. One vein was found to be twelve feet in depth and the supply seems ut terly .cxhaustless. It is only a question of timo when capital will develope these coal mines and supply .our cities with the best coal extant At present these coal lands are unsurveyed. This is one of the best countries in the world for sportsmen. Bear, moose and reindeer abound. 'Whilo thero 1 killed seven bears, one of which weighed 700 pounds. Tho weather where we were varied very much. One day it would be warm and bright and tho next day cold and disa greeable, and to make matters worse, mosquitoes by the million. During the timo we were there it was light all tho time, but in the winter it gets dark very early. Tho coldest weather they have is in December, when tho thermometer reaches W) to 60 degrees below zero and the winter lasts for half tho year. Tho timber around Cook's Inlet is small and scrubby, and would average, say two feet in circumference and about forty feet in height, and is not of much value. Tho ground is rich and will grow vege tables of all kinds. The planting is done in April and May, and by August tho crops are matured. 1 saw cabbages, potatoes and other vegetables growing nicely.
