e 25.—Dancing is
the chief method ol' recreation among
the Indians of interior Aaska, said
Miss Katharine M. Kane, teacher in
charge of the Natiive school at
Kokrines, Aaska, a settlement on the
Yukon river above Ruby.
“A few of the young men,” Miss
Kane said, “have acquired the ability
to pay the latest foxtrots on the
violin, while others accompany them
with the guitar, mandoin or ukelele.
Next to dancing the men are slaves
to pool tables and cards. One re
deeming trait is that their money
remains in circulation as one day
a native will win and the next day
some one will take his stake.
“Making snowshoes is becoming a
lost art. In our village only two old
men understand the work. Motor
boats are a hobby of the tribe.”
a INDIAN SUPERSTITION
| IS RUDELY SHATTERED
An interior trapper now in Juneau
tells of how an Indian settlement in
Southern Yuko is somewhat demoral
ized owing to one of their ancient be
liefs having been proven a fallacy. A
trapper who is a white man, had an
Indian trapper partner last winter and
on going over their line one day they
found a rusty cross fox in one of the
traps. As the skin of the animal was
wholly worthless, the white man hu
manely released the spring of the trap
and allowed the fox to fade away in
the surrounding scenery. It was then
— that his Indian partner berated him
with:
i Heap fool you! Turn ’em fox loose !
| you never get ’nother this year. White
I man crazy and me quit him, and be no
| more his partner.”
I And then and there they dissolved
t partnership, the white man retaining
f the business. Two days later on vis
iting the trap line, a fine silver-gi-ay
fox was in the same trap from which
the rusty cross had been libefated.
The silver was sold for ?200 and the
| Indians are still talking about the i
white man’s fool luck.

DAMAGE TO YUKON BARGES
NOT GREAT A SANTICIPATED
G. Edwards, general agent of the
White Pass & Yukon Route, who has
•eturned from a trip of inspection to
Stewart City, stated to the Dawson
'views that the damage done by ice to
;he barges at that place was not so
?reat as anticipated, and the com
oany had sufficient craft in good con
lition to take care of all the ore shi*?
nents offered, without delay.
The White Pass has thirteen large
oarges at Stewart City and two at
Dawson, and had made all prepara
tions to handle ten thousand or more
;ons of ore this summer, and was all
ready to put another steamer in com
mission, should the business require ;
It, but the tonnage this year will not
reach the total anticipated, largely on
recount of the Keno hill mining com
panies confining their efforts more or
less to development work this year.
