Onboard were about 650 passengers, nnd the of ficers and crew numbering 1&0 more, about 8500 tons of freight and 33 head of horses. Many f the passengers did not retire to their state rooms but walked up and down the decks to be .on the lookout for scenes of interest as they were passed, such places as Port 'Townseml, Fort Dungeon lying on the . west shore of the sound, and Victoria, tB.C, on the east shote, with many .smaller places of less interest at vari- .ous points. We passed Cape Flattery about 5-30 in the nfterroon, and swept . ,,mi nn the broad blue waters of tne l Pauifin. Of course everything was so , rout-, but on the next morning, June 1, ..bright and early there was a grand i rush for the upper deck by tho passon. A . .llartniimnil ftltamft trifia'at nrs.

They would pass you with tightly compressed lips, nnd if you, through neighborly courtesy, would sny "good morning" they would look at you in n dazed sort of a way, yelp out "O, dear!" and tho next min ute they would bo laying over tho ship rail and heaving up Jonah. After they had tried, as it seemed, to throw up tlieir boot heels, they give a sigh for the happy home they had left, a few weak shakes of tho head, and stngger down tho companion way to their statu looms where they tumble iuto their berths shoes and all, theio to lie and enjoy the liiMities of sea sickness for from one day to one week, but when they did comu aga'u on deck they looked as though they had gone tin oiigh an intemperance banquet.

Our steamer did not go lo Dutch Harbor to go Into the Uehrlng sea, out went tliroueh Uinmac Pass, seventy-three miles enst of there. The Gordon island is one side and! the Unimac island on the other side of this pass. These islands aro in the Fox group of the Aleutians. At this point some very tine sceuary came into view, (ioidon island on your left with its ban eti volcanic locks, and Unimac on the right with its peaks towering to a height of six or seven thousand feel and covered with snow from near the water edee to the topmost peak. Two of the tallest have burning craters at their peaks The snow on this barren island glistened in tho early morning Minlighl like burnished silver and was one of the finest scenes along the route. Another line scctie was just north of Northwes Cape, where a mountain shaped like pictures we see in books of the pyramids of Kgvpt, tises for nine thousand feel out of the sea. Like all others in this region it is completely covered with snow and on tho day we passed it, June 7th, at 2 p.m. (the first day the sun has shone since we left Seattle) it was grand. Wo passed It to he westward about GO miles, and what made the scene of this square shaped mountain covered with glistening snow particularly attractive was between its center and summit at three differ ent elevations bluish colored clouds weie passing around it. Our only other attraction for the next twenty-four hours was in watch ing the spouting whales, some reach, ing to the estimated length of eighty feet, the different kinds of sea birds, and now and then a passing whaling vessel or fishing schooner. When reaching the middle of tho Uehrlng sea our approach to the land ot the midnight sun becomes very noticeable as it Is broad daylight at 10:30 p.m. and the balance of tho night the shade of twilight gloom At 2:30 a, m , June 8, J tine reflection on the clouds of the gieat ice Hoes, nr fields of moving lei were seeti atid our ships olllcors were on the alert for moving ice.

After our ship had been working haul all day, running at all points of he compass in dodging large fields of filiating ice, wo wero thrown enough out of our course by moving ice, to be stranded upon tho Yukon tints, there stuck fast in the mud with a heavy field of ice coming down upon us with tho shore current. This held of tee struck us on the port quarter aft and for three hours our ship stood the test splendidly with the grating and churn ing of ice that crunched around her side, and then after two hours our ves sel managed to free herself fiom the mud, only to get upon another oank where we stuck to stay, mid tieltUot ice for fiO hours The point as shown on the map is in Norton sound, ninety miles southwest of Nome and designat ed as sand islands, or belter knouii as the Yukon ll its, which is the wash and wast i' tin own out into the sound fiom tho Yukon tiver This tilling in of mud inns from twenty to fm'y miles out fiom the mouth of the liver into .sound and along tin1 shore line from sixty to eighty mile, each wuj from fie mouth of the river The depth of water over these ll.its is from live to forty feet Wheto we were stuck in the mud it is from font teen to sixteen (Continued on page 5 ) Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Con tain Mercury a uiimciii a in Min-iy destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the wliuit, system when entering it tlitonyH 'In' miit-mis sm faces.
