A WORD OF ADVICE To Those Doming to AiusKa or tne Klondike Gold Fields. One thing should be impressed upon every miner, prospeotor or trader com ing to Alaska, to the Klondike, or the Yukon country, and that is the neces sity of providing an adequate and prop er food supply. Whether procured in the States, in the Dominion, or at the supply stores here or further on, this must be his primary concern. Upon the manner in which the miner has ob served or neglected this precaution more than upon any other ' one thing will his success or failure depend. These supplies must be healthful and should be (concentrated, but the most careful attention in the selection of foods that will keep unimparied indefi nitely under all the conditions which they will have to encounter is impera tive. For instance! as bread raised with baking powder must be relied upon for the chief part of every taeal, imagine the helplessness of a miner with a can of spoiled baking powder. Buy only the very best flour; it is the cheapest in the end. Experience has shown the Royal Baking Powder to be the most reliable, and the trading com panies now uniformly supply this brand, as others will not keep in this climate. Be sure that the bacon is sweet, sound and thoroughly cured. These are the absolute necessities upon which all must place a ohief reliance, and can under no circumstances be neglected. They may, of course, be supplemented by as many comforts or delioacies as the prospeotor may be arjie to pacK or aesire to pay iur. From the Alaska Mining Journal. A book of recipes lor all kinds of cookery, whfoh is specially valuable for use upon the trail or in the camp, is published by the Royal Baking Powder Company, of New York. The receipts are thoroughly practical and the methods are oarefully explained, so that the inexperienced may, with its aid, readily prepare everything requi site for a good, wholesome meal, or even dainties , if he has the necessary materials. The matter is in oompact though durable form, the whole book weighing but two ounces. Under a special arrangement, this book will be sent free to miners or others who may desire it. We would recommend that every, one going to he Klondike pro cure a copy. Address the Royal Bak ing Powder Co., New York. .Monster Steel Ribbon.

Object Of a Newly Formed Syndicate of . Eastern Capitalists.' . Chicago, Maroh 7. -- The Tribune says; A syndicate to take the conoes sions granted the Maritime Company by the republics of Nicaragua and Costa Rica for the construction of the canal is' in process of organization by E. F. Cramin, of this city, who is now in New York negotiating the contracts by which the new owners of the conces sions granted by the Central American republics and for the work already ac complished will come into his posses sion. T. E. Cooley, who has been as sociated with Mr. Cramin in the enter prise, is also in New York, gathering material for the specifications, which will be within the next 10 days present ed to contractors for bids on the differ ent sections of the work. The new syndicate for the construc tion of the Nicaragua canal will soon know within a few million dollars just bow muoh it is going to cost,. fin ished and ready for the passage of the first ship. A rough estimate from the data at hand on the return of Mr. Cramin and Mr. Cooley from their trip over the canal. a few weeks ago, placed the oost within $75,000,000. . Mr. Cooley was of the opinion that as fur ther data was collected regarding the nature of the excavation over a part of the route, the cost might be cut down to $65,000,000. This is far inside the estimates which have been' presented to congress in the appeals of the Mari time Company for government aid. The preparation of the specifications of the contractors has been as thor ough as the data in existence permitted. Mr. Cooley secured all the material col lected by the engineers for the Mari time Company. Be then took the reports- of the ' commission from the United States engineer corps and to these he added all the material to be had during his thorough inspection of the canal at the capitals of Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Immediately upon bis return from his trip of inspection a foroe of engineers was set to work un der his direction, bringing into form this mass of material. Just prior to his departure from New York, he inti mated that the specifications were so nearly completed that in a short time they would go into the hands of the contractors for bids. Bonds will be re quired with all bids, and when the figures have been added, for the first time in all the years that men have been trying to join the Atlantio and Pacifio by ship canals it will be known somewhere near the actual figures just how much the work is going to cost. "The Nioaragua canal," he said, "is being treated as a business proposition Our people want to know where the thing is going when they begin putting in their money. We are going to tell them. There is no great mystery in canal-building that it should not be determined approximately what a canal is going to cost, if engineers are honest enough to estimate properly the work before them. The construction of the Illinois drainage canal has educated the contractors who did that work, and they know just what to expect on the Nioa ragua canal. Their representatives have been over the ground, they have studied climatic conditions, learned what their labor would cost, can esti mate closely the oost of transportation to the canal of their machinery and mateiial. With the specifications in their hands they can bid as intelli gently as if the work was in an Ameri can state." , The 'terms by which the control of the property and concessions of the Maritime Company has come into the hands of the new syndicate are not given out. Their arrangement was the work of several months before the trip to Nicaragua was made. , Who are back of the syndicate is not given out by the promoters, but it is oiaimed that the 'contractors have been satisfied of its financial stability. How much government aid and in what shape will be asked are also matters which neither Mr. Cramin nor Mr. Cooley gives out for publication at the present juncture. Mr; Cramin and Mr. Cooley are expected to remain in New York about a week longer in the settle ment of the transfer of the canal "from the Maritime , Company to the new syndicate. , ALASKA BILL PASSED. Concessions Given Canada In-. Lieu of Certain Privileges. Washington, Maroh 7. After a de bate lasting several days, the senate late this afternoon passed the bill ex tending the homestead laws and pro viding for right of way for railroads in the district of Alaska. Comparatively little discussion of general .interest was created by the bill. Section 18, pro viding for certain bonding concessions to Canada, in lieu of privileges to be extended by the Dominion government to this country, . however, induced a rather lively debate, as it brought into the controversy the old fisheries ques tion on the New England coast,1 which has been pending between the United States and Great Britain for 100 years. The statement was made on the floor of the senate that there was every rea son to believe that by the passage of the bill the fisheries question could be settled without great effort, as assur ances to that effect had been received from a large and influential elemen t in Canada. : f ' In the House. Two more appropriation bills were sent to the president today, the pension bill and the consular anS diplomatic bill, both of which went through their final stage in the house today. This was private bill day. The most im portant action taken was acquiescence in an agreement to make "the bill ap propriating about $1,800,000 for war claims, approved by the court of claims, nnder the provisions of the Bowman act, a special order for next Friday. CABINET IS ANXIOUS. Wants to Know When the Report May Be Expected. Washington, March 7- It was d- veloped this afternoon, through ' tele graphic correspondence between Secre tayr Long and Admiral Sicard, that the court of inquiry is unable to fix even an approximate date for the conclusion of its investigation into the disaster to the Maine. , Sharing in - the general anxiety for information, Secretary Long today, at the instance of the cabinet, telegraphed Admiral Sicard asking when it was probable that 'the report of the court would be .made, and late to night the following was reoeived: "Seoretary of the Navy I have talked with the president of the court of inquiry and agree with him that it is not yet possible to fix a date for the finding, as so much depends upon the progress of the divers and wreckers, and the results they obtain. Every effort is being made to advance the in quiry. The court intends to return to Havana this evening, having finished the investigation at Key West. SICARD." Admiral Sioard's message is regard ed as disposing of the reports that the court has obtained positive or conclu sive information bearing on the subject of its investigation. . It is taken to mean that upon the testimonyor dls coveries of the divers will depend the finding, the examination of the offloers and crew' having been insufficient to enable the court to even form an idea as to what lines may be opened up from the investigation of the wreck itself. While the telegram was naturally somewhat of a disappointment, in leav ing the termination of the inquiry as much in doubt as ever, it was wel corned as practically setting at rest the reports as to the results of the invest igation up to date. It is stated that the board, in all probability, will not return to Key West, the department having intimated that it was its desire that the examination of the officers and men should be concluded at this sit ting, as they are needed for reassign ment to other ship8. THE SOUND'S DEFENSES. Contractors Are Offered Bonuses to Expedite the Work. ' Port Townsend, Wash.', March 7. It is reported here today that both firms of contractors, now constructing fortifi cations for the government at Marrow stone point and Admiralty head, have been offered bonuses to expedite the work. An additional gun pit, not pre viously provided on the estimates for this year's work on Admiralty head, at the entrance of the straits opposite this city, will beoommenced in a short time. The pit will be about 50 feet square, sufficient to accommodate guns and the maohinery for operating them. In ad dition to the pit proper, there will be underground rooms for storing ammuni tion. The work of securing title to land to be used for the government fortifica tions at Point Wilson is being pushed as rapidly as possible, and the work of construction will be under way there early in the coming summer. Spain Bought Two Cruisers. London, March 7. Spain has pur chased two cruisers which the Arm strongs have been building for Brazil, the Amazonus and her sister ship, un named, of 4,000 tons each, 23 knots and 10 guns. Spain is also negotiat ing for and will probably secure two cruisers of a similar type which have been building in France for Brazil. The Amazonus is ready for launching, and her sister ship will soon be ready. The Spanish government is also en de'avorlng to beoure guns and large supplies of ammunition in England and the Continent for - immediate use. The government of Spain seems to have funds, for it is understood to be paying a large part of the purchase money in cash, giving good security for the balance, these being the only terms upon which the , Armstrongs would deal. Will Be Authorized. Washington, March 7. The senate committee on military affairs today de cided to recommend the passage of a joint resolution authorizing the aban donment of the expedition for the re lief of the miners in the Klondike re gion, which was authorized last Decem ber. ! There solution provides for the sale of both the reindeer and the sup plies purchased for the expedition. There was a suggestion that the rein deer brought here from Norway could be utilized by the interior department, but the committee took the view that the animals should be sold in prefer ence to holding them for any depart ment of the government. ' . Proctor Saw a Fight. New York, Maroh 7. The Herald's Havana correspondent says that in his recent excursions Senator Prootor saw a lively engagement between a band of 250 insurgents and an equal number of Spanish infantry. This took place al most within sight of Matanzas, in the streets of which city the senator was later approached by a messenger from General Gomez, who openly proclaimed his identity and mission. Marines Sent West. Atlanta, Ga., March 7. The navy department is transferring marines from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. For three days a party of two or three marines have passed through Atlanta eaoh ,day on their way to the Pacifio coast. The marines come from Norfolk and are all going to Vallejo, Cal. : Wants Cuban Correspondence. Washington, March 7. Senator Morgan said today it 'was his purpose to introduce a resolution at an early date making a second call upon the president for consular correspondence bearing upoji the oondition of affairs in Cuba. . l ": DUNHAM'S STORY. Interesting; Report of a Government Official on the Klondike.' Located in Circle City, 180 miles northwest of Dawson, which all the river traffic to and from the Klondike passes, is the man whom the United States government has sent out to gather information regarding the Klon dike which the pnblio may know is ao ourate Samuel C. Dunham. ' Mr. Dunham is under the direct jurisdic tion of the commissioner of labor at Washington. All the long winter months he has lived in a room in a $20,000 house at Circle City, a house that is made of logs and boards, and whose real worth seems preposterous. Mr. Dunham has sent some valuable information to Washington or to the United States, as he puts it. While Alaska is a part of the United States you never would think so if you lived there and heard the people talk. They always refer to the rest of the nation as: . "Back in the States." It is safe to say that of the thousands already en route to the new Eldorado only a small percentage are actually aware of the real conditions that exist in the land of their destination. As gorgeous piotures of wealth have been painted for their edification as imagin ation could devise, and that is why the oold facts that have come to us by the aid of carrier, dog and sledge, and finally the United States mail, create something of a feeling of astonishment. Mr. Dunham tells us that there is not work for the people who are al ready in the Klondike, and that before the spring rush is half over the coun try will teem with-the destitute and homeless. However, the destitution is not now so great as it was imagined would be the case, and this because it bas been found possible for the differ ent camps to help one another. - When Mr. Dunham's report, which is now on its way, peaches Washington, it will be sent to congress at once, but owing to the fact that the report is not likely to reach the department be fore Maroh, after the Klondike emigra tion has passed flood tide, Mr.- Dunham has deemed it best to forward the more important facts here 'presented. In his latest letter to the Commissioner ol Labor Mr. Dunham says: "I flm making fair progress on my report, and have reached a point where I can give an outline of its practical features. I have completed an intro duction, giving a short sketch of the stampede as I saw it from the other side of the mountains; a chapter on the Klondike containing the first accurate account of the original discovery and the development of the mines, and what I hope will prove an approxi mately oorrect statement of the output (an exceedingly hard subject to handle); a chapter on Dawson and its surround ings, giving full information relative to wages, cost of living, opportunitiei for employment, etc., and ending up with an account of the food famine and the exodus, and a chapter on navigation of the Yukon. "I have well under way a chapter on Cirole City and the Birch Creek dis trict, and have all necessary data for one on mining laws and local regula tions, incidentally touching on the only form of government that has been known here previous to the present year miners' meetings, i In addition to these I shall give considerable space to the trails and the best means of get ting here, expense, etc j the best routes for railroads, which we assume are bound to come within a few years, al though we do not know what is going on outside; the possibilities in agricul ture, which are considerable in the Yukon valley, as wheat, oats, and veg etables of many kinds can be grown here successfully; the outlooi from the commercial point of view, etc. "A thousand pages could be written on the situation without exhausting the subjeot or the reader; but I shall stop short of 400 typewritten pages. It is exceedingly difficult to get information here, on account of the great distances and the unsettled condition of the pub lic mind oh the food question. It is hard to work when one hears constant ly on every hand stories of starvation and death from exposure. I oonsidei the situation grave, but not desperate. There is food at Fort Yukon for 600 more men than are wintering there, and this can be freighted to Dawson or part of Dawson can go to it. It may be that the transportation companies can feed the population next year, but it is doubted here. "I have secured an accurate state ment of the amount of freight landed in Dawson by the steamers during the season, made up from the manifests of the boats and from information obtained from the agents of the companies. Less than 2,700 tons reached there, and between 700 and 800 tons of this con sisted of furniture, whisky, hardware, etc. less than 2,000 tons for 5,000 men, and much of it was consumed during the summer. Prices are increasing in Dawson, flour selling for $150 a hun dred and many more other .staples , in proportion. Luxuries are not quoted, simply commanding what a man feele disposed to pay for them. Dogs have sold as high as $500 apiece there, and $300 has beer offered and refused here. "Our mail carrier is still here, stranded without dogs or provisions to get out. The government pays $600 for a trip that costs $2,500. Nobody blames the ,p6or carrier, but everybody damns the government and the con tractors. I send this out by private parties. .

The sun rises at 10 and sets at 2, giving us seven or eight hours daylight. Moon swings in the heavens all night, giving a light by which one could read a newspader if it was to be bad. The trails are open and men are starting out in every direction with their dog teams to Fort- Yukon for freight; to Birch creek mines, to. drift, and to Dawson and thence to Juneau." Turbines for Torpedo Boats. The navy department has ordered a trial to be held at the New York navy yard of the steam turbine engine, with a view to the adoption of the type on some of the new torpedo boats. With a. steam turbine and oil fuel the en gineers say it will be possible to secure far higher speed in torpedo boats than prevails now. ' The Turbina, an English-made boat, developed the phenom enal speed of 82 knots, and it is be lieved, considering that she is only half the size of the Cushing, that when the invention is perfected it will be prac ticable to attain at least , two more knots with ships which now are not fitted with it. DEEP DOWN. We may move along the pathway of life enjoying what seems to us a fair amount of good health, but there conies over every human being at some time some unex pected condition of the system which may be torture for after years. Such is an in sinuating and unexpected attack of sciatica resulting from weakness of the nervous system , which can give more pain to the square inch than any pain that afflicts man kind. It has been found out, however, that the prompt and vigorous application of St. Jaoobs Oil to the seat of the pain w'.ll by persistent rubbing finally penetrate and cure by soothing and strengthening the diseased nerve. It is a pain that needs to be watched. The sciatica nerve plays so important a part that its derangement may cripple.
