TERRIBLE AND TRAGIC STORY

Of Hardship and Priya- tion

IN THE ALASKAN GOLD FIELDS —GUIDE’S SAD DEATH.

Last Path¢tic Message of Mr. Frank Philips.

Another sad story comes io ua as the re- eult of the Klondike rush. Mr. J. H Philips, of Worcester, Mass, formerly of ; Charlottetown, has received a letter from his s6a Fraok who has passed the last two years in Alaska in a search for wealth. He left Worccster with a party of which little or nothing has been heard, and of

whieh hooes have in most cases been aban- donéd. Here is the letter, and it is one of the saddest of all tue sad stories that have come back from the Klondike since the first rush to the gold fields :—

Yvueatat, Aug. 24, 1899.—I have just arrived here from inland, and found your letter which was waiting for me since Jnne. From February we have suffered many hardships ani privations. I men- tioned having lost two men of our party last December in a terrific storm. One was poor Mike Brissotte, of Worcester, the other was a St. Paul, Mino., mac.

They had a dog with them and attached a letter to his neck stating they were lost and starving. The dog found his way to where a California party was camped. They got the letter,but before the two men were found they were frezen to death. Fa

Prof. Hill, the original guide of the Worcester party died from hardsoip, ex~ posure and exhaustion. We gave him as decent a burial as we could afford near where he lay, and thea buried a big Siwash Indian who died of scurvy. Nearly every- body had ecurvy. I did not have it, and think I can stand this climate as well as most of men.

But I have have some pains ip iny arms, probably rheumatsm or sprains from pack carrying. We have no coctors here or any professors, but I can learn a great deal from the ,Jndians, and the bears aud even the owls here can teach lessons in wisdom and sound philosophy, and I jis eu to their reasoning. 1am wel! and sirong and have lived a temperate and very frugal life. In coming out J lived ten consecusive days ou wheat flapjacke. Sol think I could live cheap envugh to work for avy corporation,

trip withme. We have everything ready forastart. Even missionaries will turn aside after the present ev'l world and covet that which destroys. The mission- ary establishment is 4 good thing for men going in the country.
