THt NAMING Of
MOW M'KINIEY
v Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
Mt. McKinley was so namrd by Wm
A. Dicttey, of Seattle, at present in
Yalde*, who saw and named the moun
tain in 1906. Mr. Dinkey is a brother
in-law of John A. Whalley, then con
nected with the Post-Intelligencer, and
through him the tim account of the
naming of Mt. McKinley was printed
in this newspaper.
Two years later a federal geological
survey party undertook to name the
mountain Bulshava, which in the
Husso-Aleut jargon means "big moun
tain," but that name did not stick,
while that given by Mr. Dickey will
last for all time.

^Seattle Times)
The latest Nome newspapers making
reports on the output of Cape Nome for
the season of 1M0?'?, place the figures at
$7,S50,000 It is therefore entirely safe
to call that output *S,000,000 for the
vev, as i be season wa^ not quite closed
when the publication was wide. This
is given for the information of gentle
men supposed to snow something about
the output of gold in Alaska, but who
are sending out rsports of a most mis
leading character.

GEORGIA f AILS
TO GET AWAY
The Georgia did not get away from
Juneau yesterday on scheduled time.
She had not returned from her trip to
Sitka 4 and the north wind W3S too
strong for any other boat at Juneau to
stem it. She will probably sail from
Juneau for Skagway sometime today.
When she comes she will have a small
quantity of Skagway mail i hat came
north on the Al-Ki. The mail consists
of a pouch of registered mail aud a few
letters.

temperature of the last 24 hours.

A THOUSAND THANKS

"For over thirty-five years I was a
?evere sufferer from eczema. The erup
tion was not confined to any one place.
It was all over my body, limbs,
and even on my head. I am sixty
years old and an old soldier, and have
E>een examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they said
there was no cure for me. 1 have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doctors,
without avail. A short time ago 1
decided to try the Cuticura Remedies,
and after using two cakes of Cuticura
Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment,
and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent,
two treatments in all, I am now well
and completely cured. A thousand
thanks to Cuticura. I cannot speak
too highly of the Cuticura Remedies.

That Cuticura Soap is the best baby
soap in the world for cleansing and
purifying the skin, and that Cuticura
Ointment is of priceless value for
soothing and healing itching, tortur
ing, and disfiguring eruptions. A single
application of Cuticura Ointment, pre
ceded by a warm bath with Cuticura I
Soap, gives instant relief, and refreshing I
