The following from the Seattle Daily Chronicle will lie of interest to the many friends ol Thos. I runt. who recently left here to again en ter the ice fields of Alaska as a meiii b'cr of the geological survey: To compile maps and investigate the geological conditions nud nun eral resources of an entirely unex plored country between the Koyu ktik River and the Arctic Ocean in Alaska, is the object of a parly of seven United States geodetic sur vey men, who will leave Seattle for Skagway 011 one of the next boats. F. W. Peters and G. P. Phillips, two of the party, arrived in Seattle last night. Mn speaking of their plans and trip in general, at the Rainier-Grand' this morniiigiMr. Peters snid: "The object of our expedition is to make a complete survey of the country between the Alaskan boun dary line, the Koyukuk River and the Arctic Ocern. "I was one of a party that were up near that country last year, and we cached n lot of provisions, cunocs, tents, etc., at Bergman, on the Koyukuk River. "The route we will take will be: Seattle to Skagway, thence by Daw sou to some point on the lower Yukon. Prom there we will mush" crosscountry to the Koyu kuk, down to Bergman, where we will take all our supplies and pro visions and advance them beyond the Arctic divide before the thaw sets in. It is thought Hint we will strike some stream or river then that will take us down to the Arc- tic Ocean. "In returning, if it is possible, we will travel eastward and cross country to Eagle City. "The journey is plauiyed on a basis of a nine months' trip, and it is probable that mueh interesting and aluabledatn will be collected." T. M. Hunt. Charles Stuveu, George H. Hartmau, W. II. Dewar and If. C. Schraeder "will arrive'in a few days from the' east. The report of the goedetic survey of the Nome country last summer has not been officially given out yet, but it is expected the report will be issued before the Nome rush be gins. AIIOUT JIM. The following from "The Comet" published at Johnson City, Tenn., will be read "with interest: "For the second time within twelve months a cow belonging to J. P. Lyle, a prosperous farmer living near Johnson City, has dropped three calves," making six calves from one cow in twelve, months. Noth ing like it has ever before been known in this section. The cow perhaps knew that the prodigal son, Jas. H. Lyle had come home from California and wanted to supply the fatted calf, and overdid the thing. We beg to .suggest to the lucky owner of this prolific bovine that he advertise a new stock of cattle to be known as the "Lyle Stock." There's millions in it." wnu, ri.KAsrtD. Rev. C. II. WuJIace received a letter Wednesday from his on Winters, who recently left here for Colorado Springs, in which he speaks of the parties safe arrival. He also mentions that he has al ready secured a position in a print ing house at 10.00 a week. He says groceries are as cheap there as here with one of two exceptions nmotlg which he mentions pota-J toes. Rent is exceedingly high, an ordinary house of four or five rooms, renting for $20 per month. WAGON lOK SALTS. '- A light zxA wagon with 3 inch tire for sale or will trade for stock or wood cutting.
