V ? otu"r. Sept. 18 ? Coal miners
;.t all the Punsmuir properties are
on a strike for higher wages. As
(here is very little coal on hand at
any of the mines In British Columbi
it is feared that the strike will be
the means of boosting the prices of
that article way above present quo
tations.
It is the same old grievance, the
men claiming that wages are not
rsised in proportion to the Increase
in the price of coal and other living
expenses, while the operators claim
that they cant pay more and make
profit on the output. As the miners
are pretty well organised and have
had a successful season, it Is be
lieved that they are in a "p?*i'l?n
to stay out until their demands are
acceded to.

That there are mnnv tribe* of]
hardy native* in the extreme north of :
Canada, who are free from diaeaM*1
common to the bettfr known tribes,
and who are of * different type, in
the report brought to Nome by Kx
plorer Stefanson . the noted ethnolo
gist. who arrived in that city from a
tour and a half years stay in the
icy stretches of Franklin, In the
extreme north of Canada.
St? fnnson reports that he came
across natives in the region about
Victoria land and Coronation gulch,
five out of every thousand of whom
he examined had blue eyes, and ei
ther light brown or blonde hair,
beard and eyebrow* All of them ap
peared healthy.
Some of the tribes had never seen
a white man until Stefanson made
his appearance among them. Two
of the tribe* Informed him through
their oldest inhabitants that white
men had been seen In the nineteenth
century, sometime in the fifties.
None of the natives had ever seen
a sulphur match, nor had they ever
heard the report of a rifle.
The native*, timid at first sight of
the white men, soon learned to
trust them, and during the greater
part of the four years and a half
?spent among them, Stefanson say*
he was accorded every hospitality
within the gift of the primitive peo
ple.
The Stefanson expedition was sent
on the northern mission by the Am
erican Museum of Natural History,
of New York, and by the Canadian
ecological survey, of Ottawa. Stef
anson has gone directly outside to
write up the data which was obtain
ed on the trip. He estimates that It
will require fully two year* to per
f??ct his notes, so that they will b?
available by the public.
