KLONDIKE NEWS The Story of a Persevering Prospector. ���������Lost Everything in the River Last Spring and Conies Back With $350,- 000 Worth of Property.���������The Sulphur Creek Discovery and Stampede.��������� Condition of Affairs With Regard to the Food Supply and Mail Transport. (Fiom Our Seattle Correspondent.) Seattle, Wash.', Jan. 29.���������The s. s. City, of Seattle which arrived a few days ago from Dyea brought down some forty oelel passengers, the most of whom came direct from Dawson City. They all seemed to be well supplied with the yellow -metal, which is at present so concerning the banking fraternity of the world, lest so much of it gets into circulation that it will get beyond their control. Among the passengers was Mr. Geo. Brimstoii, in whom~we have been very much interested. Mr. Briniston left Seattle on the 10th-of Match last bound for-the Klondike. Everything went all o. k., the lakes were reached and in* company .with three others, they built a ��������� boat - and got ready to float down the river as soon as the ice went out. One morning they woke up to find the river -clear of that obstruction, and they 'at .once launched their hoat, loaded, in supplies and started on their journey down stream, admiring the beautiful scenery. All went well until the month of the Little Salmon river was reached. Here till of a sudden they-came up to the ice, gorged in the mouth of a canyon, and before' they realized their situation their boat was -sucked ' under the. ice and they . only escaped by jumping out. Three of the party succeeded ni' climbing\" on to the ice, but Mr. Briniston was less fortunate. He floated under a point of ice and into an open, channel where the swift current c'������i'ri(*dl^J.iii)'..elown .the streain^for a half-mile before he was rescued. \"Had he not been\" a-:powerlul man, and a gooel swimmer, lie, (to use his own words,) would be \"sleeping with MeGinty.\" They finally reaclied\"Dawson with nothing but the clothes which they had ou, Mr. Briniston not even having any hat. Not. having any money or provisions, Mr. Briniston was compelled to go to work. Wages were $15 a day. so he did not have to work very long before he had sufficient to get a \"grub stake, when he cpiit and went to prospecting.

A ton or more of mail for Dawson is scattered along down the lakes and river at, the various police stations. Both the. United States and Canada are censured severely for the dilatory manner in which the: two governments act in regaid to the carrying of the mails from Dyea or Juneau to Dawson and other Yukon points, but the aci ions of governments come like a raise, of wages���������very slow.

OF A BROKEN\" HEART. Mayor Templeton's death was about a trageely. At the last moment in the contest for a second tei m'as chief magistrate of the city his friends seemed to have deserted -him. After the tight wns over and he. went home a beaten man; he told of, the shameful lies that had been - circulated about him, anel remarked : \" These slanders cut into my heart like a knife.\" _ He never held up his head, again. A few hours afterwards'he said: \"I-am sinking; I am a dying man.\" He gave instructie ns to his wife regarding his children and quietly went to sleep, a sleep f 1 om whicli he never awakened, although life remained in the body for thirty-six hours. Many say that Templeton died of a, broken heart, but the doctor's verdict is. \" burst' a blood vessel on the broin.\"���������Rossland Times. .: POLICE COURT Before J. D. Sibbald, S. M. At 3 p.m. on Thursday afternoon Mathew Pettipiece was arraigned before His Worship on a charge of noti- snpport and neglect of his wife and Family of six. under age, of South Edmonton. The prosecution asketl for a remand of eight days to allow time for the plaintiff to arrive. Bail was fixed at $1000, two sureties in $500. W. White. Q. C. appeared for the prosecution. ANOTHER GOOD CRY GONE The Liberals of Bi itish Columbia have got quite .1 ~olj befoie them and that is to bcju.iie approval of the ion- cessions made by the Liberal government at Ottawa to Mann to Mackenzie to aid the Stickine-Teslin railway and denunciation of the giant made by the Turnei government last se*ssion to aid the Cassiar Centi.vl. The popular outcry against the deal uiarle with W.irlnuton Pike is the real basis of Libeial hope of winning in ths next piovinci.il election. The Cassiar concessions did exeite considerable indignation, p.uticul.iily in the mining districts of the piovinte and made .1 fine election ciy. They the good, pure honest Liberals \"\\ ould nevei have done anything like that, oh. dear no. And now to theii disgust conies along the Laurier government capping the Cassiar deal on e\\ery point. Did Wiirbui ton Pike get a lease of 7C0.000 r(ies for 35 yeais for 75 miles of railway���������Mann & Macken/.ie are to get an iibsolute grant of thiee \"and three quaiter million acies lor 150. Pike was limited to .1 certain defined urea. Mann & Mackenzie have the whole expanse of the gold-be.uing fields of Northwest to pick from. Under the Cassiar bargain a piospettor certainly h'is some kind of a shew. He can ���������piospect on tho loasc*cl lauds and can compel the company to take him in a woi king partner, if the-y v. ant to develope his discoveries. On the M.-um- Mackenzle grant the mineral is theh-b as soon as the lands are located. No one else can touch it. Mr. Her&chell Cohen should hang himself us high a Hainan in disgust. He simply is not in it. It is computed that the railway will cost about thiee and a half millions to build. For eveiy dollar spent, Mann to Mackenzie will have an aci e of pic ked land, which at a very model ate estimate ought, if pioperly handled in the maiker, while the piesent. excitement is on, to fetch them 111 at least ten. And besides all this, in .lace ot the tremendous denunciations of the monopoly clauses in the C. P. R. ch.utei, ou which so much Gut eloquence was expended lor so many years, a complete monopoly of the transportation into Yukon for live ye.us. The ptovineial Giit papers aie swallowing all this like oysters. But with wi y faces, as they have to take it with Cassiar flavoring. THE DOMINION PARLIAMENT C. B. Hume & Co.

When this discovery became known, the excitement knew no hounds. Men actually fell over each other in the mad rush for gold. Mr. Brimstoii, in his jovial way. said, \" Why ! for three months I kept my pack made up continually, with live days rations in iI. so that I could grab it. at any'time, (lay or night, and run, for minutes might mean tho.is- anels of dollars. Mr. Briniston is a shrewd business man and through this and his persevering qualities he has acquired some of the most valuable properties on the famous Skooki.m Gulch, All \"Gold Creek and Sulphur Creek, besides other smaller interests. Skookum Gulch and Sulphur Creeks are the two richest of the Klondike dis'riet and All Gold is the next. His holdings on these three alone at a low estimate aie valued at $a-50.000. 'In order to give you some idea of a Klondike stampede,\" said Air. Briniston. \"there was Bryant creek. Well that'entire creek was staked off within an hour and I hat at eleven o'clock at night.

CORRESPONDENCE A Pointer for the Blighted One To the Editor of lhe HERALD: 1>i~au Sin,���������Allow me a few lines in regard to \"A Blighted Being.\" He seems Lo labor under a misapprehension that he. is boycotted. He cites a number ol his gooel qualities us reasons for fitness for public oflice. Honesty is not an essential, rather the opposite. Who ever heard of award politician who paid his debts to the extent of \"100 cents on lhe dollar.\" His gain is another man's loss. If Mr. Tapping wishes public office let him adopt the usual tactics. Announce himself as candidate for the particular, office which he desires. Solicit support and get a nominator. Then allow the public to decide whether he is possessed of \"more gall than brains.\",. Should he be elected as alderman on the prospective council I would suggest that he use every endeavor to secure the position of chairman of the streets committee. He could in that way control the vote of the laboring men of Revelstoke. Another Bliohtkd Being. Among the passengei son the Corona, which was wrecked at the mouth of the Skeena, was Mr. D.

To consider all questions connected with the mining industry, and to promote public discussion thei eon. 3. To ptomote legislative and other measures alfee ting such mining indus- tty. ���������1.

To proem e infoi m.ition as to mines, mining companies, and .ill matters l elating thereto, and circulate the same. 7. To establish, form and maintain a library, and museum of models, specimens, designs, drawings, anc* other articles of interest in connection with the mining industiv, for the use of members. 8.

The incorporation of the chambe*r is to be procured. As n body through which the opinions and l eeitiirements of mining men can be foi iinilnt(_*d and turned to account either by mging legislation or other ways, this chamber seems to be woi thy of the support, of e\\ery mining man iu the province.

He says that during tiie previous week, between 215 and '.10 'men bad arrived at Skagway from Dawson, among them Dr. Wills, who left Dawson, Dec. 10. and passed Selkirk on the 20th. Up to December 20th. 321 persons had passed Selkirk on the* ice on their wav out to the const;, and about 50 others before the river froze, or in all 371 persons have come out from Dawson bv way of the passes since the Northern Yukon was bound up in ice. Dr. Wills pissed Judge McGHire's camp on tlic28bli. and that of Major Walsh on Llie 30th. J. D.. McGregoi, one of Mnjnr Walsh's offleei'3, who left, Lake Bennett with an outfit of horses nnd docs, was at the Canyon between. Lnkes Marsh and Laburgc on Jan. (i. Tliirtv mile river was slill open. McGregor wrote Inspector Wood on Jnn. 7l h that if horses could not be got below Lake Lubai ge, he would go through himself with dog teams, lh was sending to Major Walsh all the dogs lie could spare, together with b.icon and flour from 20 tons of stores McGregor lias with him. If he cannot get below Lake Labarge he proposes to build a log house and store his provisions tliere. going on himself by dog team.

The Canadian Government's party are calling for more dogs, some of those taken up having died after tliey got over' tho summit. As thev advance northward it is presumed the climate is too much for some of them. There* is no use in sending any dogs to that region except such as are enured Lo the rigorous winter climate. At Skagwav good dogs are brinocing from $50 to \" l\"00 each. Hay is selling at 850 a ton, and very little of it can be got at that price. Sergt. Joyce, of the Canadian police and a party who have 3~ dogs with them, have got over the summit safelv and were by the middle of January well on their way down the lakes.

Day afler day for tho last two week the thermometer had never risen about twenty below and had fi-e(|iii'iitly fallen below forty. Day after day tho sun rose in the clear blue sky and sot behind tho white mountains on tlio horizon. Night after night ihe stars blazed like burning jewels in the dark purple depths of heaven. Day by clay men looked tithe west to see the dark cloud of the cliinucik rise to its appointed height above the Rockies, herald of the warm wind from the Pacific, which alone could break the spell of the cold, but il came not. Sue-h a long continued cold snap was something unheard of in the foothills of Alberta. It was el road fully cold work goiug down that morning to start the fires in the little house on the outskirts of tl.e town of Medicine Bow, Th* woman felt it seize her very Iienit. She had made up good fires in the two stoves before going to bed, but they had died down long ago. She had gor.e to bed so early. There was not iniii-h use in sitting up alone thinking, thinking and it was warmer in bed with tlie liitle girl. Last Christmas it had been cheerful and comfortable when ho was still getting employment and good wages. But the hard times had come and lo:s of work and he had gone-olf. to Kootenay in search of something to do and it was very lonesome without him. The little money he had been able to leave with her was not enough t o let her pay for a servant so she lived Tatters went down stairs. The blinds were all down in the sitting room, where the big self-feeder was glowing brightly, anel it was beginning to get comfortably warm. She pulled at them till they flew up letting in the bright wintry light. Tatters was quite pleased with herself. She was getting ejuite a big girl now and able lo help mamma. She watched some hoys i coasting on a little slope in. the road outside. She knew they were bad boys because mamma had told hor so, but they seemed to be having a good time .-mil she watched the proceedings for a long time with great interest, Then she felt hungry anel listened to hear if her mother was moving up above, but theie was no sound. Back of the self-feeder on a chair a pan of milk and a loaf had been set to thaw out. Tatters got a soup plate and a spoon from the sideboard and managed lo get some of the milk into the plate and to brea~k off some bread from the loaf. She made herself some bread and milk and began to eat. Then she; remembered hev mother again. Mamma ought to have some breakfast. She went to the foot of the stairs \"Mamma, breakfast is ready, breakfast is now ready in the dining car.\" That was what her dad used to shout np to lier in the morning, when he was at home. But there'was no answer and Tatters went back to her bread and milk, first taking np out of a cradle fmir dolls, one big one, nearly as big ns Tatters herself and three smaller ones.'

She got the fires started at last. Luckily she-had bought in plenty of conl the evening before. She went up stairs again to get warm in the bed until the fires had taken the chill olf the house. . Then she would go down again and make breakfast und she and little Daisy would go up town and see if there was a' letter. This was usually tin* elay his lultcrs came. Perhaps lie would-write and say'-that he had found a. silver mine and that he was coining home and they would all live happy together as in the old days. Sho was only a foolish little woman. Tf only that dreadful pain in her side would not keep coming, she would not mind so much, though it was so lonesome without him and she was so nervous. s|1L. scarcely could sleep at night at all. only dozing and waking up again with a start, to lio sleepless and scared for another long spell. She mounted the stairs and went into the room. The little girl, a pretty child between four and five with dark curly hair and big giey eyes, was sitting up in the bed pretending lo read a letter for the hiuiilr'eth time which her father had sent her. -\"Deiir little Daisy.\" she repeated in her high childish voice, \"I hope you are quite well. Yon aro a dear Little girl. All tlii'-st- kisses are for you.*' It was not what the lett\"r said at all, but. that did not diminish t.he satisfaction with which the liLtle girl read it aloud to hers.elf with variations a dozen times a day. The woman chid her sharply, when she saw whnt.she was doing. \"Yon mvughty ch.-iir and eat her breakfast. Then Hie dolls had to be. dressed, a long job, and they were'very troublesome and mamma was not there to give her a hand as usual. Bye anil bye some one pulled open the piiit-h door and knocked at the door of the house, which opened directly on to the sitting room. \"Come in,\" said Tatters. The door was tried Inn. it was locked. \"Is that yon, you dear little thing,\" said a girl's voice, \"Where is your \" mother?' \"Mamma is not very much better. Miss Tempest,\"-said Tatters, \"She is asleep.\" \"Can you unlock the door,, Tatters?\" Tatters tried to turn the key, but the lock was' too stiff for her little soft fingers. \"I can't do it,\" she said, '\"It's ii bad lock. I'm only a small little child, yon must remember.\" Tho young girl'outside laughed. \"Tell your mother-1 will come again this afternoon. It is too cold to stand out here. Good bye,. Tatters.\" \" '-Good bye, Miss Tempest, when I get a big girl 1 will unlock, the- door for you.\" The young girl- lteft the porch and faced the cold-outside ngaui. It was so bright and sunny, one could .scarcely believe if was so cold. All the air was full of littlet.shiiiiiiiig films like thin particles of,, ice. dancing\" and glittering in' the sein.\" As 'she passed thiough the little gulden gate, a puff of wind from'the north drove the light powdery snow before it over the white and frozen road. Tatters watched her going, thiough the double windows of the sitting room. It was very cpuet in the house, and she began , to feel .strange and lunesoiiui.
