went to bed rock, because It would not re
main It it did not.
Evidence was introduced showing the con
truction of the Walnut HIU reservoir,
which is lined with concrete on the bottom
and brick on the sides. The basins were
rna.de before he came and he did not know
whether embankments had been made from
the excavations or not Later the. Florence
plant was taken up and photographs and
maps and plans identified. With regard to
the foundations he said the engines had not
shown a crack or a "glvfe" since they were

Midnight Sun and is on his return to Boa

; "Rampart City lies about 800 miles north
west of Dawson, on the Tukon river," said
Mr. Kaffenboyd. "and Is a town of about
l.00 Inhabitants. The settlers are largely
Americans and Rampart la, of course,' in.
American territory. The town Is sustained
by the mining Industries In the vicinity. A
very rich strike waa made near Rampart
last' spring, and though we were not af
Cipted With a big rush, the result has been
to wonderfully stimulate business at Ram
part. . There are some coal mines in the
vicinity, but the coal is too young to make
a satisfactory fuel, so we depend largely
t fuel on the abundance of timber of

The fur industry is large one there and
a great deal of money la made out of it.
The furs obtained are from the Arctlo fox,
sliver gray fox. sable, marten, bear, otter,
musk ox and deer of different varieties.
The seal do not come up the liver for
enough to make their capture profitable In
our vicinity. In fact, the shore seals do not
produce a very good marketable fur. The
Island seals are those most preferred and
they are becoming scarce. Our open season
at Rampart begins with the middle of May
or the first of June and continues to about
September 25.

along the Yukon, except it be for quick
growing vegetables, such as lettuce, but
they grow so rank as to have s bitterish,

seasons. In summer the temperature will
often get up to M or more and In winter
down to TO below aero. There Is very little
wind along the Tukon and we do not par

temperature. There Is a great future ahead
for the Alaskan country. It Is settling up

MEN OF AFFAIRS IN CONTROL
Basil of Baoceai Attained by the Toung
Hen's Christian Association,
DR. WARNER TELLS OF THE WORK'S GROWTH
laaaaeaae Importance of the Assoela
tloa la Soilness as Well ao Social
Life Bhowa by Some Isapres
slvo Flgares.
The success which has attended tha
Toung Men'a Christian association in the
United States is due to the fact that It has
been managed and built up by men of af
fairs, men who have been successful at
the head of some of the largest business
enterprises in the country. These men
have brought the same business sagacity
and experience to tne management of the
association that they used in making their
own ventures successful. This idea, ex
pressed In a more extended form last even'
Ing at the second annual dinner of the
state executive committee of the Toung
Men'a Christian association tn the Dellone
hotel, came from Dr. Luclen C. Warner
bf New Tork City, chairman of the na
tional executive committee, and himself a
man of affairs.
Work of tho Association.
Dr. Warner responded to the toast, "In
vestments in a Great Institution.' He was
warmly applauded when he arose. His re
marks were largely statistical. Among
other things he stated there were in the
North American 1,800 associations, with 375.
000 members, 467 buildings, valued at $26,
000.000, 82,800 students, 6,w0 Bible class stu
dents and about $4,000,000 spent annually in
carrying on the work. He explained how
tha 577 city associations were the trunk of
the association tree, having a large part
of the members and doing the larger part
of the work. The college associations deal
with the young men who would most widely
Influence the destinies of the country. Of
railroad associations there are 204, a few
years ago largely supported by the roads
themselves, but now receiving 60 per cent
of their income from the men themselves.
He touched also on the 107 colored associa
tions and forty-one formed among the In
dians. The speaker drew an Interesting Illus
tration of the growth of the association
idea from three buildings standing side by
side in Buffalo. They were the first, second
and new homes of the association there.
The oldest was meant for merely gospel
meetings and a reading room, the second
was a building of the sort now in Omaha,
with gymnasium, baths, etc., and the last
was a nine-story steel, fireeproof structure.
with two distinct new features. These are
the dormitories, which occupy four floors,
giving the association an income and mak
ing it possible always to have large at
tendances at all meetings. The other is
the enlarged idea found in the provision for
tha boys' department. The speaker Im
pressed on his hearers the great value of
this latter work, which is the most suc
cessful bridge over the period of disaffec
tion reached by boys between the Sunday
school age and the time of becoming
church members.
Chancellor Andrews Presides.
Ninety cov ers were' laid for the dinner
and the seats were all filled when Chan
cellor E. Benjamin Andrews of the Uni
versity of Nebraska, as toastn aster, called
on Rev. E. H. Jenks of the First Pres
byterian church for the invocation.
"A:i people who read at all," said Mr.
Andrews, "are constantly reminded of tbs
crops in the west. No state, I think, la
up .to its record like Nebraska. Beyond all
question the crop this year will bring into
the state a larger amount of .money than
any before. I often ask people In the
east to.gueoo the value of our crops, but
they never . come . to more than 33H per
cent of it. But I often tell people It I
not our crops or our cattle, but our chil
dren that are our best product."
The. chancellor then Introduced W. J.
HIU of Lincoln, chairman of the state com
mittee, to answer to the toast "The Product
of the State: Toung Men."
Mr. Hill traced the history of the associa
tion through the hard times when so many
had failed and gave some Interesting illus
trations of tho work being done.
One of the most prominent and entertain
ing speakers was Richard C. Morse of
New Tork City, general secretary of the
International committee. His remarks under
"Supervisory Agencies" were much ap
plauded. George D. McDIll of Chicago, In
ternationa railway secretary, also talked
pleasingly of his department.
Prominent Men Present.
In addition to the speakers of the evening
many prominent men were about tho
board. Leading local business and profes
sional men were in number, as were also
the pastors of Omaha churches. The fol
lowing out-of-town secretaries were pres
ent: C. A. Mayne of Lincoln, H. 3. Schley
of Chadron, O. H. Sawyer of Grand Island,
J. W. Hogue of Hastings, S. S. Clark of
Fremont, T. C. Marsh of South Omaha. Of
the state executive committee the following
participated: W. J. Hill, chairman, Lincoln;
Dr. W. O. Hemry, vice chairman, Omaha;
George H. Wallace, secretary, Omaha; W.
E. Johnson, treasurer, Omaha; A. L. John
