WHITE RIVER CAN EASILY
BE RENDERED NAVIGABLE
Officers of tho stearaor Pauline, Just
back from a trip up tho White, the
Klautassen and the Donjok, In which
It was demonstrated that those
streams drain a vast country rich in
mineral possibilities, state that the
White river should receive immediate
attention In the way of bettering nav
igation. One of the officers says:
"The White is a splendid stream,
carrying a large volume of water, but
it contains Innumerable channels or
draws, parallelling each other In
many places, and In these channels [
are hundreds of ancient snags, while j
?Ion* the banks scores of long sweep- ;
t-rs of fallen logs overhang.
"Those obstructions to navigation!
should bo removed. It seems certain
that the White now that It Is de
monstrated to be navigable should be
opened to permanent navigation, the
same as the Stewart.
"It is not right to expect the steam
|
boat people to take all the risk with
their property in running against j
such obstacles. In places the White1
is many miles wide, and the draws
so numerous that even the most skill- j
wl navigator runs groat risk of}
(rounding his boat. The Paulino was !
up the river but two weeks or so
ifter the LaFYanc, but in that short'
lime the water had fallen so that'
many draws through which the La
France went could not bo negotiated j
by the Pauline, and the Pauline Is a
much lighter draft craft.
"It Is plain that the best time of
the year to determine the best chan-!
nels for permanent use is in the fall,
when the river is low. It Is then that
the water is at its lowest stage, and
the shallowest portions evident or
even dry.
"It probably would not require long
for a few competent men to explore
the river In September and mark
with buoys or painted poles.
"On our trip, we had to get out
day after day with all hands and cut
sweepers Most of them were heavy
trees which had fallen across the
channel, leaving their broken llitabs
projecting in such a way that a boat
might be sunk by them instantly on
coming into sharp contact.
"The old snags caught on the sand
bars and In the Btream also caused
much delay. There were quite a
number which we had to cut out.
"We do not mean to say that the
river is chuck full of those obstacles,
but that there are enough to make it
a particular menace to navigation.
The heavy mud of the stream has
caught and held the snags.
"The prospectors traveling up and
oown the stream in small boats as
well as the steamer men are to b-)
considered in reviewing the lecesslty
of improvements to the river.
"Although no steamer attempted to
proceed up the main White a*v>vo the
Klautassen, we are info'inel by old
White river prospectors that at high
water the Pauline should be able to
go to Canyon City, which is many
miles above the Klautassen.
"Should the government care to act
In this matter, the fall Is the time.
If it should not be in aposltlon to do
any work this year, a competent man
might look over the situation and
map the river with views to improv
ing the stream next year'.'? Dawson
News.
KLUANE COUNTRY CAN BE
REACHED BY STEAMBOATS
DAWSON'. July ?4 ? The verdict Is
riven by Capt. Sid Barrington, master
md Capt. Steve Martin, pilot, of the
steamer LaFrance, that Lake Kluane
:an be reached by steamer. On their
:rip up the White river, from which
hey have Just returned with tho La|
Prance, they ascendofl the Donjack. I
>r Klautassen river several miles, and^
'ound it a deep wide stream similar
0 the Fifty-mile, which runs from j
iVhitehorse to Lake LaBarge. Their ;
>pinion is that the same volume ofi
vater is carried by the stream right!
rom Lake Kluane to the White. Suefci
>eing the case, it means that the
intiro Kluane country can be reached
vith e<\<* by st?? ter. nr.d Supplies
listributed all along the lake and up
1 any of the side streams of the
ake by water.
The LaFrance went 100 miles up
;he White proper, which was some
!istance below the second canyon. It
s said that the boat could have gone
wenty-five miles farther up the main
White. Owing to her pump not be
n in fit condition, she did not as
:end the Kluane to its head. The
White Is a very swift stream, full of
draws or channels, and largely spread
over Immense flats. Snags of ages
are scattered along the route bat the
main channel seems to be free of
them and easily navigable.
It is like that the LaFronce will go
up the White asaia before the close
of navigation .probably In September,
and a number of prospectors are
preparing to go into the field this wli
ter. It is known to be rich In copper
at the head where many claims are
already laid out, and the timber belt
is extensive. Gold has been reported
at times on some portions of the
White river watershed, and especially
in the Kluane district.
Robert Lowe, 6eoond engineer of
the LaFrance, took many fine : photo
graphs on the pioa?er lilp. They sho
the magnificent stretch of the country
the high mountains, the heavy forests
and the apparently Interminable
sweep of the flats, covered on the
muddy surfaces with thousands of
snags , to be seen tumbled In prolific
sweep as far as the eye can carry
in every direction.
GOOD COUNTRY FOR PROSPECTORS
Joseph Towner, sourdough prospec
or, who made the trip up the While,
;he Klautass??n and the Donjek orr
ho steamer Pauline .states that the
:ountry through which the steamer
jassed is marvelously attractive In
ippearance to a man with a prospec
or's proclivities. He says:
"The hills and the valleys in the
Slautassei! and Donjek valleys are
'ascinating. They are of a character
:hat makes an old time prospector
'eel that he would be having a good
:hance to get something for his ef
ort If he took his pick and shovel
ind pan and struck out throught the
country.
"It . looks really as promising for
ilacer as for quartz. Gravel, schist
and shale are plainly to bo seen on
a hurried trip. The river has cut
many a large ledge which looks well
worth the while of any one to Inspect.
"We know It Is but a short dis
tance up that stream to Lake Kluane,
and the gold discoveries in the Klu
ane there might be taken as an en
couragement for prospectors along th
Donjek and the Klautassen.
"Copper also has been located in
the Kluane country and at the head
of the White, showing that the Don
jek and the Klautassen are sur
rounded by known mineralized dis
tricts. No doubt the Klautassen and
the Donjek are encouraging fields for
the man who cares to plunge into
the wilderness to seek what nature
may have In store. ? Dawson News.

out on her cheet.
The first symptom

and he prunounoed it to bo eczema of a
very bid form. Ho treated her. but
Instead of being checked, tho disoaso
spread. It showed itself on her bock,
and then quickly spread upwards until
tho whole of her head was affected, and
all hor hair had to be cut off. Tho pain
she suffered was excruciating, and
what with that and tho heat and tin
gling hor life was almost unbearable.
6he oeca mo run down in health, and at
times was very feverish, languid, and
drowsy, and occasionally sho was de
lirious. Her nerves were in such a low
state that she could not bear to bo left
alone. In spito of the cold weather
?ho would Insist on having her bedroom
window open, and would lean out on
the window-sill. Sho did not havo a
proper hour's sleep for many nights.
Tho second doctor we tried afforded
her Just as littlo relief as tho first, and
I really do not know what wo should
have aono if wo had not road how
Cuticura cured a similar case. I pur
chased Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint
ment, and Cuticura Pills. and before
the Ointment was three-quarters
finished every trace of tho disease was
