LITTLE SORREL
T>e Favorite Battle Charger of Stone
wall Jackson.
Among the many battle steeds ridden
during the war between the states by
the celebrated Confederate Corps Com
mander Stonewall Jackson of Lee's
army his faTorite was a charger affec
tionately named Little Sorrel by the
Second corps of the Army of Virginia.
He was about Qfteen hands and. as
General Longstreet said to the writer,
strongly resembled, except In color.
President Zn chary Taylor's Old Whltey
of the Mexican war. Jackson rode him
at Ball Ran. Winchester, Cedar Moan
tain, Manassas. Ant let am. Harpers
Ferry. Fredericksburg and on many
other battlefields. Ele mounted Little
Sorre. for the last time at Cbancellors
rllle May 2, 1S63. and In the battle was
mortally wounded by his own men and
died a week Inter.
General Bradley T. Johnson of Mary
lam] In a letter to the present writer
remarks: "Jackson was an ungainly
horseman, and when he rode by the
troope Little Sorrel would strike off on
n ran. The general would pall off his
cap and ride bareheaded at full speed
past miles of shouting Confederate#.
The saying was when you beard that
yell before or behind yon on the march.
"There goes old Jack on a rabbit'
When the soldiers started a rabbit
they'd scare hlni to death with yell
tag."
Little Sorrel died at the Soldiers'
home near Richmond at the age of
thlrty-sli years and Is now to be seen,
like Sheridan's Winchester, carefully

WHITE PUSS ~
FLEET BUST
The fall rush of freight is now on
and from the present Lime to close of
; navigation, all the available river
steamers of the White Pass Com
pany will be in commission. The net*
! steamer Casca was hauled alongside
the commissary Wednesday to receive
her provisions and equipment and wi.|
get away on her maiden voyage to
Dawson today. The Canadian which
I has been laid up during the past two
months will also be placed on the run
and will get away in a day or two.
i There remains now only four weeks
| more of the season for operating
j boats on the upper Yukon and not to
| exceed three weeks for the lower
j river. The last steamer for the sea
son to leave fcr Fairbanks is adver
tised to leave Dawson on the 23rd
j of the present month, which is oi^e
week from tomorrow. Last year the
White horse was advertised to leave
Dawson for this place the 10th of
| October, but It was a day or two lat
! >r when she sailed for this place
closing the season so far as the White
Pass company was concerned. Two
or three independent steamers left
Dawson from ten to fifteen days lat
er and came safely 'through.
Thus far their is an excellent stage
of water and it is believed it will con
tinue good throughout the season. ?

SEWARD. Alaska. Sept. 10? James
Harden, president of the Kenai Alas
ka Gold Company, arrived in Seward
with the first cleanup of the Falls I
creek property. Sixty-five tons of
run-of-the-mine- ore taken from the l
slopes above the lower tunnel, milled I
la 110 hours, returned gold bullion, I
amounting to 197 ounces and 12 pen- 1
nyweights. The assay value is $18.75
per ounce.
This is the first cleanup from a
stamp mill operated on the Kenai Pe
ninsula. One year ago the property of i
the Kenai Alaska Gold Company was
merely a good looking prospect. To
day it is a producing mine. An aerial
tramway will be installed this fall
and electric power in the spring.
The cleanup on exhibition in Sewar
is causing great excitement and will
result in greater activity than ever
before in the development and pro
pecting line.
The Barnes property on Crow creely
Skeen & Lechnor property on Falls
creek and Hlckey property and the
Seward Bonanza Gold Company's pro
perty at Mile 21 are all showing up
fine and sufficient work has been
| done on them to guarantee that they
Iare good substantial beds and will
become dividend-paying properties.

IlES NOTES
From the Haines Pioneer Press.
John Rosene Jr. has shipped out
five tons of copper ore from the
Three Guardsmen, to a smelter at
Sharon, Pennsylvania, for a mill test.
There are thirty pupils attending!
the Haines Public School and every \
available seat le occupied. There Is
room for several more seats and there
are several more pupils awaiting a
chance to enter as soon as the seats
can be procured and intsallde.
The heavy South wind and the ex
treme high tide of Monday and Tues
day caught several unawares, and
many boats were adrift as a result.
At the saw mill the heavy boom
chains holding the logs were broken
-ind the logs strewn on the beach,
causing much damage and delay.
