Ryan, now en route to the Yukon gold fields, writes from St. Michael’s tc a friends in San Francisco that there is grave danger of a famine on the Klondike this winter. Accordirg to all reports received from the upper country, it will be linpos- sible to land sufficient feod at Dawson City to support the population already depen- dent upon that base of supplies. R. T. Lyng, local agent of the Alaskan Commerc’al Company at St. Michael's, de- clares that there are already over 2,000 idle men in Dawson, and new parties arriving every day via Chilkcot pass, while the total amount of freight landed there this year wiil not exceed 4,000 tons, of which not more than three-fourths is provisions. Miners returning from Klondike who left there in July report that the food was run- ning very low then, and it was disposed of as fast as discharged from the steamers. Oid-timers realize the situation and predict distress and death as a result of the Klon- dike craze. William Ogilvie, dominion land surveyor, who has been making topographicai sur- veys of British possessions along the Klon- dike, has been recalled by the government for consultation as to important matters affecting new gold fields, and is now en route to Ottawa via San Francisco. He will make a report embodying suggestions for new mining laws governing the sale of liquor and taking wood for fuel, ete. He made a census of the production of the new fields. and finds twenty-three claims produced $826,000, and says that $70,000,000 is no exaggerated estimate of the amount that will be produced by 180 claims on Bo- nanza, Hunkers and Eldorado in three years. ———— eee POLITENESS TO PATRONS. Instructions to Employes of the Post Office Department. A matter which is occupying the atten- tion of the postal authorities just now is the uttention which employes at stamp windows of post offices should pay to post office patrons. Many complaints of curt- ness and uncivility have been made. In- structions will be issued admorishing em- ployes to be uniformly polite in the dis- charge of their duties. The {identification of persons applying at the post office for their mail in cities is also being looked into, with a view of doing away with unneces- sary trouble and annoying precautions. The department will advise postmasters that requirements should not be too strin- gent. and that al! accommodation consist- ent with carefulness and safety be given angers, and that the policy governing railroads and similar institutioas in ac- cepting informa! proof of identity, as to Passes, etc., be adopted. ——_- e-______ SETTER KILLS SHARK. Brave Dog Attacks a Man Eater in Atlantic City Surf. | A special from Atlantic City, N. J., says: A large crowd of people who gathered on the boardwalk at the foot of Michigan avenue were witnesses of a battle royal which took place in the surf at that point. The contestants were a handsome setter dog and a shark over four feet in length. The shark was seen swimming just be- yond the breakers, and the dog at once swam out and attacked the fish. The strug- gle was a fierce one, and the water was lashed into a foam. It seemed for a time as though the shark would be the victor, as he was fighting in his native element, but the dog finally triumphed, killed the fish and brought it ashore. The noble animal ran away before any one in the crowd discovered to whom he belonged. He was loudly cheered by the spectators. ——_—_-e-_ Made Fifty Millions.

NATURAL BOTANICAL GARDEN Prodigal Luxuriance of Wild Flowers on the Carberry A Rare Spot. Nearby Washington Where Lovers of Flora May Spend Profitable Hours. Written for The Evening Star. - J Prof. Lester F. Ward in his book on the “Flora of the District of Columbia,” pub- lished by the Smithsonian Institution in 1881, made special mention of the Carberry meadows as a locality where rare spicies of plants are found in their season. Sev- eral recent visits to this same region and a careful observation of its vegetation re- vealed the fact that ‘there are probably not many other sections In this country where on an equal area wild flowers of such numbers and varieties abound as on these so-called “Carberry meadows.” This narrow strip of land, which 1s about two miles in length, lies between the canal and the Potomac; just west of Georgetown. Covered as it is with logs of trees, boulders of stones and pools of stagnant water, it deserves hardly to be called a meadow, though it furnishes a roush pasturage to sheep and cattle. The flora here is of such a luxuriant growth that notwithstanding the destruction that is wrought on all sides by these animals enough interesting Plants are constantly left to delight a botamst cr to reward a lover of wild flowers for a day’s outing. The course uf improvement so generally visible on all sides in the ro- mantic surroundings of the Capitol has not reached this part yet, and the lavoravle conditions to make it one of the most charming places have probably been over- looked. The Carberry meadows have local advantages of a kind not possessed by any other section. he elevated povition of the canal aiong the entire length on cne side and the river front on the other, where the water is not yet contaminated by sew- erage from the city, also veveral running brooks and clear springs, are features that could be used to advaniage in a judicious improvement. The greut variety of soil and an abundance of moisture even in the dryest weather have contributed to make these flats a natural park for our own flora. Plants differing. widely in their character are here congregated. Approaches to the Meadows. At present the cnly visible approaches to the Carberry meadows are, singularly enough, by stairways, one at the east, the other at the west end, and each stairway is alongside of a bridge leading over into Virginia. If a little order was madé here in all this chacs of material and the ex- ukerant growth of the plants judiciously directed, our tiny botanical garden, with its nursery of exotics, so formidably pro- tected by stone walls and iron railings, would be set entirely in. the shade. It should also be remembered that many of our own Virginianas and Marilandicas are quite as handscme as some of the intro- duced plants and deserve cultivation. To reach the meadows from the Aqueduct bridge at the terminus of the Washington and Georgetown railroad, the towpath along the canal has to be followed for about a mile. Timid people, however, may consider it as too severe an ordeal to run the gauntlet of a hundred canal boat mules, usually tied to stakes in the middle of the path. If so, they can descend to a road cn the left-hand side, passing the Great Falls ice houses and the historic Eads’ mill. We are, however, assured that these live propellers of the coal barges are quite well behaved; that they neither kick nor bite, and that they are not in the least dan- gerous. Interesting plants are met with right at th start_on either side of the path. Plants in Numerous Varieties. A dozen species of mints are forming a green border to the canal. Purple pickerell wecds and their companions, the delicate white arrowheads, form a second line, and floating on the water is a network of pond- weeds, their greenish flowers peeping like young eels out of the deep. The steep embankment on the left has been for weeks literally covered with the showy pink soapworts, which are now past blooming. On isolated bushes of matri- mony vines the delicate blossoms are grad- ually turning into jewel-like coral ber- ‘s. When we reach the meadows near an old trestle and survey the field, we find a profusion of sennas and centauries in bloom, and reed not regret that we have missed the seascn when lizard’s tails, silk- weeds and St. Johnswort were here the leaders in the floral kingdom. In many places the witchhazel, elder and button bushes are completely interlaced with the trailing trumpet vines, virgin’s bowers and woodbines that they make a passage in cur path often difficult. Other Rare Specimens. Betweet. the rocks and round the pools many unobtrusive species are found. The false dragonhead and the black-fruited battle-box are scarce and hard to find, but a splendid bouquet may be made of the car- dinal flower, and its sister flower, the great lobelia. Surprises are always in store for those who are persistent in their search for botanical rarities. Groups of a thou- and monardas and thickets of marshmal- s are met where ieast expected. A new- comer among our wild towers, but one that promises to be most abundant and persistent is the Mexican ageratum, with’ bright purple blossoms. We can only wel- come it, as it seems to have been truly naturalized, and makes itself at home everywhere. Since the advent of the wheel pedestrianism, even for the best of objects, has gone out of fashion, and its exercise’ gives the rider fascination enough. A desire to walk after our poor wild flow- ers finds a charm but with few people. It is to be regretted that our ficra has so few admirers, and that it is not generally known what an endless source of pleasure the study of botany brings, and that one’s mind finds by it a complete oblivion from worldly cares, FRED, J. BRAENDLE. — WHITNEY’S ULTIMATUM. Ex-Seeretary Tellx Sheehan Chicago Platform Must Be Ignored. A dispatch from New York says: It has leaked out that ex-Secretary William C. Whitney gave Leader John C. Sheehan of Tammary Hall, big ultimatums at an important corsultation held at the Hoffman House recently, regarding the platform to be adcpted for the Greater New York mayoralty campaign. It is said that after Whitney's dinner to his sound money democratic friends at the Metropolitan Club, Sheehan was call- ed upon to submit to him and his asso- ciates & draft of a platform for the dem- ocratic city convention. Sheehan submit- ted one that was a partial indorsement of the Chicago platform of 1806. It was in the nature of a straccile, it is said, an ef- fort Leing made by Sheehan to satisfy both the Bryan element of the New York der ocracy, especially Tammany Hall, and the gold democrats, from whom Sheehan and the others hope to have substantial help. Ex-Secretary Whitney not only did not take kindly to this platform, but, it is reported, plainly told Sheehan that if the democrats in their city convention in any way whatever indorsed the Chicago plat- form either he and his friends declaring themsclves democrats would support the republican nomiree for the Greater New York mayoraity or they would suppert a sound money democrat for the office. Sheehan, it is understood, is eagerly awaiting the kindly advice of Richard Creker, provided he determines to come back to New York. Meantime the rank and file of the Tammany men insist that there mvst be no departure from the Bry- an free silver platform of July, 1896. —_—_—_+e-+___ ANlotting Lands in Utah. Insiructions for the allotment of the lands of the Uncompahgre Indians in Utah have been issued by the Interior Department. James Jeffreys of Tennessee and Ross Guf- fin of Missouri are the commissioners. If any Uncom Indian wants an allot- ment outside of the Uncompahgre or Uin- tah reservation, he can select any unoccu- pied and unentered non-mineral lands in Utah. To each head of family are given 160 acres of agricultural and not exceeding 160 acres of grazing land, and to each other single person eighty acres of agricultural and not over eighty acres of grazing land. Indians may select their lands, heads of families selecting for themselves and their minor children. The Indian agent will select for the orphans. = GES. A $2,000,090 PLANT BURNS.
