The strr-uge island of Prince of Wales, on which Mr.- Hillar has elect ed, to mako his home, lies at the mouth cf Dixou's entrance and only about three miles from tho northern line of British Columbia. The island is about 200 miles long and from 10 to SO or 40 miles wide. It is singular in its makeup, having a fringe ol lowland all around. Toward the civo viriirpB of mountains, 6ome of thorn reaching lof ly heights and covered with perpetual snow. There is magnificent timoer m jji em ii un titles.

Most of those I came in contact with are Hydahs. Thero are between 300 and 400 of them at Hunter's bay, and they ar quito industrious as fisher men aud salters of tho ealmon The Hydah Indians came up from the Queen Charlotte islands many years ago and made conquest, driving the nkivo tribe out The former are very Thev are intelli gent and pick up anything very quicklv.
