TO PROSPECT
THE BIG HORN
G. M. Tharp and William Isinmen
ger, two mining men wlio recently
came out from Fairbanks and have
been prospecting in the His Horn
district near Taku Arm, are in Skag
way and expect to leave the latter
part o f this week for the Big Horn
country again.
On their last trip to the Hig Horn,
Mr. Tharp and Mr. Isinmenger en
countered great difficulties. The trail
from Log Cabin is in bad shape, they
say. and bloeked by windfalls. In
many places they could hardly keep
tc the trail. They were accompanied
by two Indians and in trying to raft
across Otter Lake they were driven
ashore In a storm and lost part of
their outfit. It took them five days
to go from Log Cabin to the big
to go from I^og Cabin to the Hig Hor
river.
Mr. Tharp thinks there are gold de
posits of both quartz and placer in
the Hig Horn valley. On their next
trip .Mr. Tharp and Mr. Isinmenger
expect to be gone for about three
weeks and will go over the valley
thoroughly.
While in the Big Horn country the
two prospectors met Fred Lawson, a
prospector who has been in the coun
try for eight years. He has a cabin
near the headwaters of the Itig Horn.
His wife is with him and he is driv
ing a tunnel in a ledge of quartz. He
1 as packed nearly a ton of ore eight
miles in 12*> pound sacks on his back
and 's soon going to send half a ton to
the Taconia smelter for a test. It
is free milling gold ore and looks veryj
rich, according to Mr. Tharp.
Lawson is said to be wanted by his
relatives in Michigan. Mr. Tharp in
formed him of this fact and Lawson
will write home and get into cotnmun
ii.ation with his relatives. He told
Mr. Tharp that he had not written
home for six years.
Stop at the Dominion IIott'1 when i

and clean comfortable beds.

SKAGWAY - - - ALASKA
NEW YORKER
LIKES n
W. E. Aitklns, a tea merchant of
New York, who with his sister, Miss
Aitklns, and nelces, Miss Perry and
Miss Hartman of Johnstone, N. Y.,
came to Skagway several weeks ago
on the Cottage City and made the trifl'
inside to Dawson, arrived in town on
yesterday's train and will go south on
the Cottage City.
It Is Mr. Aitkin's first trip north a$
be and his party are delighted with
Alaska.
"Both the trip up the coast and the
river trip to Dawson are well worth
making," said Mr. Aitkin. "Alaska Is
i> marvelous country and is little
known. Skagway would have a fu
ture as a summer resort If the east
erners knew anything about It."
The Dawson passed Big Salmon at
G a. m. today. The Casca was at Cof
fee Creek at 9 p. m. yesterday and the
Whitehorse left Dawson at 10 a. in.
tvday, all bound up stream.
The Bonanza King reached Dawson
and the Selkirk will sail from White
horse tonight.

THREE CURES OF
.SEVERE ECZEMA
Michigan Woman T ells of Her Broth
er's Terrible Suffering with the
Disease? Grandchild and Another
Baby also Permanently Cured.
CUTICURA REMEDIES
PROVED INVALUABLE
,"My brother had eczema three dif
ferent summers. About tho same tirao
each sutamer it came out between his
shoulders and down his back, and he said
his suffering was terrible. He used dif
ferent kinds of medicines that were said
to be good for that disease, but nothing
seemed to do him much good. When it
Oftne on the third summer, he bought a
box of Cuticura Ointment and gave it
? faithful trial. Soon he began to feel
better and he cured himself entirely
with Cuticura and has never been
bothered with eczema since. Ho also
used Cuticura to euro a bunch over his
eyt, and a terrible corn which was so bad
that he could not wear his shoe. A
lady in Indiana heard of how my daugh
ter, Mrs. Miller, had cured her little son
of terrible eczema by tho Cuticura
Remedies. This lady's little one had
the eczema so badly that they thought
they would lose It. She used Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment and it
cured her child entirely, and tho disease
?ever came back. Mrs. Sarah E. Lu.sk,

| Tliere is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
' eases put together, and until the
; last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease an |
prescribed local remedies, and by con j
stantly falling to cure with local treat- j
I ment, pronounced it incurable. Scienc
I has proven catarrh to be a constltu
I tlonal disease and therefore requires
| constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
| Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
j only constitutional cure on the mar
I ket. It is taken internally In doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoouful. It
I acts directly on the blood and mucou
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it I
falls to cure. Send for circulars and j
