BIG TRAVfl
Large Alasfeau Excursions
Will Come This Year
That the Alaskan and Yukon ex
cursion traffic will be very large this
year is the conviction of S. A. Speddy,
who has spent the winter at Los Angeles
and other California towns in the in
terest of the White Pass. Mr. Speddy
was serving as special passenger agent
and he devoted his time particularly to
interesting tourists in the trip over the
White Pass to Dawson and Atlin and
return. In this line he met with en
couragement beyond his expectations.
Mr. Speddy says the travel to Daw
son and Atlin by tourists will be much
larger this year than it has been in any
year in the past. Many of those who
have spent the winter in Los Angeles
will come north for the summer, as
will many permanent California resi

CELEBRATION TO
BE BEST YtT
The program for the cslebration of
Victoria Day, May 26, at Whitehorse is
conceded to be better than any previous
program for a similar event at the
Rapids City. The plan is for a
short program, but interesting, and
large prizes, Many usual events have
been cut out. Special attention has
been given to providing team contests.
There will be, of course, the inter
national baseball games, of which
there will be two or three. Then
there will be football and a series of
fireman's contests. This will include
hose and engine races.
The people of Whitehorse expect to
be prepared to entertain the largest
number of visitors ever had at one
time.

CUTICURA REMEDIES
WORK WONDERS.
"As I was a sufferer with eczema
I write to tell you what a great friend
I found in Cuticura Remedies. In
six months I had
tried three doctors,
but did not get any
better. It was on
my body and on my
feet so thick that
I could hardly put
a pin on me with
out touching ec
zema. My face was
covered, my eyebrows canie out, and
then it got in my eye. I then went to
another doctor. He asked me what
I was taking for it, and I told him
Cuticura. He said that was a very
good thing, but that he thought that
my face wou Id be marked for life. But
Cuticura did its work and my face is
now just as clear as it ever was.
I "lly brother-in-law told me about
j the wonderful Cuticura remedies.
| I took his advice and got the Ointment,
' Soap, and Resolvent. I washed with
[ the Cuticura Soap and then applied
1 the Ointment, and took Cuticura
Resolvent as directed. In a short
time my face began to get better, and
when I had taken one bottle of
Resolvent I could brush the scales
off my face like a powder. When I
had taken four bottles my face was as
clear as ever.
"I told all my friends about my
remarkable cure. I feel so thankful
I want everybody far and wide to
know what Cuticura can do. It is a
sure cure for eczema, (signed) Mrs.

Puu Over the Structure.
Standing in tlie center of an open
field at Iloxne, nenr Eye, in Suflfollc, is
an obelisk erected to the memory of
King Edmund, who met his death t.'iere
at the hands of the Danes in 870. On
the site of the monument stood an oak
tree, in the branches of which the king
sought refuge from his foes. At night
fall he emerged from Ws leafy biding
place and seeretod himself under a
bridge which spanned a stream called
the Goldbrook.
A wedding party, however, passing
over the bridge in the evening, observed
the king's gold spur glittering in the
moonlight, and In this way his retreat I j
beca:n<> known to his enemies, ne was
taken back to the tree in which he bad , j
previously bidden himself and shot I
with arrows, and his body was after- ]
ward removed to Bury St. Edmunds j <
and interred in the monastery there, j J
On Goldbrook bridge is inscribed a 1 1
record of the event. Local tradition I j
has it that many years ago the existing : j
inscription was followed by the words, ! {
"Cursed be the wedding party that | (
passes this bridge." No part of this |{
