A Yukon Financier, River Trip to the Klondike,’’ by John Sidney Webb, appears in The Century. Mr. Webb says:

The ‘**‘ Napolecn of Finance’’ of the re- gion, and certainly the richest man there, is a brawny Scotchman known as ‘*Big Aleck’’ Macdonald. He managed to make a large clean up on his claim— said to be $90,000—and invested every dollar of it in other claims—part pay- ment down, the remainder when the water came inthe spring. Every one about the camp knew of. Macdonald’s speculations, and all were wondering whether he would become a bankrupt or & multimillionaire. The water did not come down early in 1897 and in some instances the clean ups on the claims be bad bought on speculation caine so close to the day of payment that, as the story goes, the gold was paid over ‘‘before it was dry.’’ The death of two brothers to whom he owed $40,000 on a claim is said to have been bis financial salvation, because the time of payment of a debt to a decedent’s estate is extended one year by law, the gold commissioner acting as judge of probate for the time being. Macdonald is probably owner of an interest in about twenty odd claims, bought on his min- ing knowledge and his wonderful nerve. He paid enormous interest on the money he borrowed, took tremendous risks and finally won. In some instances during the winter of 1896-7 money was loaned at 10 per cent for ten days,

It was not long that he was allowed to remain in a con- dition of supreme happiness over his in- vention, for a short time after he made a disclosure of his discovery, and while yet in Philadelphia, he found out that by the persons to whom he had given an exhibition of the process of making lead pipe his idea bad been used and improved upon.—Philadelphia Press.

SPEAKING PASSING SHIPS.

New Efforts to Revive Old Time Courte- sies at Sea,

The fine old custom of speaking pass- ing ships is rapidly dying out among the skippers of today, and the general opinion seems to be that the modern master is, as a@ rule, too easy going to bother about anything of the sort.

Colonel MHozier, the secretary o Lloyds, conrciders that a deal of trouble and anxicty would often be avoiced it captains would but take the trouble to speak ships within reading their signals. In many iustances anxiety with respect to overdne vessels wonld be alluyed, and, furthermore, there would continually be news for the friends of masters and for the hundreds of thousands of others who are interest- ed in the great merchant marine of this country.

Chatting the niatter over, Captain Froud, the secretary of the Shipmasters’ society, said: ‘The practice of speaking each other at sea ard reporting at every opportunity is, 1 am sorry to say, dying out among the captains cf the present day. I suppose they are indifferent, cr careless, and do not consider it worth the trouble of boisting the siguals and making out the other fellow’s. Itisa very great pity that an exceedingly use- ful custom should be neglected, and I am glad to learn that Colonel Hozier is doing his utmost to induce masters to speak other ships aud to report when- ever it is possible.

‘*l am convinced that if captains can be persuaded to take the trouble to do this much good service will be reudered to the public generally. This society is doing its utmost to get musters to re- vive the practice.’”’

Captain Froud’s appeal was strength- ened by the picturesque evidence of an old time skipper, who admitted that speaking and signaling had been almost entirely neglected of late years. ‘‘ When I first went to sea,’’ he said, ‘“‘it was the invariable custom to exchange names and destinations and sometimes reckon- ings with passing ships, but nowadays captains don’t bother. Sometimes a skipper is short banded and he won't take even one man from his work, but mostly he doesn’t bother himself about the thing at all. That's my experience, and I’ve been at the game a week or two. '’—London M: il.
