wa\f is now extending ovr all Euroj-a
and many deaths and prostrations are
reported.
I
Doctor Tom G. Loagstaff, member
| of the council of the Royal Geograph
ical Society of London, England, is
in Sk&gway, having come up on the
last trip of the Princess May, enroute
to Fairbanks, with his sister, Mrs.
l>u Pre P. Lance, whose husband is
a consulting engineer, who was sent
out to Fairbanks to report on some
properties at that place for an Eng
lish-American syndicate The syndi
cate has secured several large hold
ings, and Mr. Du Pre Lance is stay
ing to install a dredger before coming
out.
While In the city, Doctor Longstaff
and his sister are guests of the Pul
len House, where they will remain
till they can make river connections
for Fairbanks.
Doctor Longstaf is a noted traveler,
and has been over most of the known
globe, the coast of the south island
of New Zealand being the only ex
ception. In speaking of the journey
up here, he stated that 6ur insidq pas
sage from Pug< t Sound to Skagway
was the most beautiful and wonder
ful water journey in the world.
I Victor Longstaff is by no means an
idle traveler seeking new scenes to
rest a jaded body, but on the con
trary, is an enthusiastic worker. He
has climbed most of the accessible
peaks of the world seeking knowledge
and has slept out in the open, until
he is virtualy a child of nature. Al
though claiming that he is British to
the core, he is yet a citizen of the
world in the broad sense.
He is particularly interested in the
study of glaciers' and has been at this
branch of his work since '94 In the
Alps, Caucasus, Himalayas and Can
adian Rocky mountains. It la now
his hope to do the glaciers of Alaska.
This, however, will most likely have
to be postponed until next year on ar?
count of making the trip down the
Yukon at this time.
The Georgia will be in tonight
from Juneau and will leave here to
morrow morning.
The Reverend Burgess, of Eagle, ar
rived on the Princess May. with his
bride and took apartments at the
Pullen House for the time that they
are to be in the city. They will leave
on tomorrow morning's train for j
their future home in Eagle.
