“There was at Nome ahead of us sixty-

two vessels of all descriptions, from a large ocean stearnship to a small tug-boat of three tons burden, all of which had made the journey from San Francisco and Seattle. After coming to anchor we were besieged by a fleet Ofsniall rowboats, whose owners clamored for passengers to ferry ashore at two dollars per head. The first news we heard was that two men had been killed the night before for claim- jumping. All the passengers were thor- oughly drencbedin being rowed to the shore. TVe found every inch of availabli land occupied by shacks :and tents. Abso lutely no accommodations were to ke obtained by the new-comers. Selfish- ness was the predominant trait of all we met. \\'omen and children were left to shift for themselves. Owners of small express-wagons charged ten dollars per hour for moving goods miles up the beach to the nearest unoccupied ground where they could be dumped.

“Five hundred feet back of the beach

is that beastly bog known as the "Tun- dra." It is a shaking quagmire, with solid ice two feet below the surface. Ani- mal and human refuse was lying in heaps along the beach. The stench was awful. Gambling. excessive drinking, and other forms of depravity weie seen evel'.VWh€I‘€ in the narrow streets of the town. Pneu- monia, typhoid fever, smallpox and mea- sles raged throughout the vast camp., The pest-house, located at the south-eastern part of the beach. near the Nome river, was overcrowded. and the authorities re-

authorities were notified by Dr. Grisby, formerly surgeon of one of the steaniships land the reply received was,“Put the man iii atent back on the hill." Exposed as the poor fellow was in a little tent, he be-

came blind from the disease. There was absolutely no quarantine over him. Buri- als avcrged four'a day during my stay. '|The funerals were unique. Four men with long handled spades carrying a wooden coffin, proceded to the_ dreary graveyard in the “Tundra," where a. hole was scraped in the mud to the underlying

I ce. The dead was deposited therein, and

/rough board raised to mark the grave. I 1 a short time every mark of interment .vas obliterated by the thawing of the ice and the sinking of the body. This is the end af each unfortunate gold-seeker dy- ing in Nome. i

‘Positively, there is no gold in Nome for

new-comers. The beaches have been I worked over four times, and are exhausted Every creek claim of any value is bein. lworked by the original owners. The -country for a radius of sixty- five miles is staked out. Most of the mining companies have pro- cured extensive machinery to work Creek and beach claims are bankrupt. Thousands of dollars' worth of machinery is lying abandoned on the beach. All freight is lightered ashore and dumped discriminately.

Caiiada’s Pulp Supply.

-_-il

Mr. George Johnson, Dominion Statisti-

cian, who has compiled the statistical pamphlets for t-he Paris Exposition, makes an interesting calculation based_ on the f forestry reports of 1£_B4. It is estimated that from 3800 40 per cent of Canada terri- tory consists of woodland and forests. That gives a forest area of 1,400,000 square miles, and if half ofthat is spruce we have almost 450,000,000 acres of pulpwood in Canada. By the present methods of manu- facturing newspaper a cord of spruce- wood, or 650 feet board measure, will make half a ton of sulphate, or one ton of ground pulp. News paper stock is made up of 20 per cent. of the former and 80 per- cent. of the latter. It is estimated that an acre of spruce contains on an average about 7,000 feet, board measure, which would make' about five and a. half tons of sulphatepraeleven tonsof ground pulp. If the production of ground pulp be est- imated at ten tons to the. acre there is the incomprehensible amount of four bil- lions and a half tons of pulp in sight in Canada.. This is below the' estimate of Dr. Bell of the Geological Survey, who places the area of the northern forests of Canada at 1, 657,600,000 acres. If half ol this is spruce it would yield eight and a. quarter billion tons of ground puli .

Great Britain and theUnited States con-

sume yearly 900,000 tons of wood pulp, which is the product of 900,000] acres of spruce. If the entire amount were taken from Canada it would take 50 years to ex- haust the present supply according to the mo st conservative estimate. But asspruce produces itself to the size best adapted for pulp manufacture in 30 years, the pro- blem of exhaustion is evidently in the re-

mote future. ~
